FRANK BELL, agent of the Western
Union Telegraph Company between this
city and Hamilton, informs us that the
holes for the poles are all dug; that the
| poles, with the exception of those for
abont fifteen miles, are delivered; that
the wire from Hamilton is partly strung,
ana that ON Monday party will COM
mence to string it from this end The
calculation is TO have the line completed
and IN working order in ten days, If not
sooner. BY making some cut-offs, the
distance is reduced to about 1l3 miles.
Pres. WAND, proprietor OF the saloon
on the corner of Main and Meadow Val
ley streets, left on yesterdays stage (via

| journeys to see if the air of the Bay will
not restore him to health again. Pres.
has been ailing for some months buck,
and we hope change of air will be of

require his presence in San Francisco.
We wish him pleasant Trip.
| The books of the registry agents have
been open since the 9th inst, but quail
fled voters seem to come in slowly, only

Voters will bear in mind that it is not
necessary to be furnished with poll-tax
receipt before they can register, as that
law Was abolished by the last Legisla-
ture; therefore there is no excuse for
not reg STEERING immediately.
