The CALIFORNIA DEMocRAcY.--The
Oakland News, Republican paper, in
discussing the question of successor to
Mr.. Casserly in the U. S. Senate, regards
the chances of the Democracy in Cali
fornia as not altogether hopeless. It
says: ---f -s- IE-..
The California Democracy is not as
weak and powerless as casual observers
OF political affairs would suppose. Many
Democrats voted for Grant, and hun.
dreds did not vote at all. The full Re-
publican vote was brought out, and Grant
carried the State by some $4,000 votes.
The vote for Congressional candidates
is Of deeper Significance and more i'm
mediate importance. The results in the
several counties need not be specified
here, but all know that a majority of the
counties in this State gave majorities
against the Republican candidates, and
that if similar majorities should be given
next fall, the Democrats would have the
naming of Senator Casserly's successor.

TOWN INCORPORATION.

While Phoebe, Eureka and Carson are
agitating the subject of the Incorporation
of town governments, there seems to be
a counter current in Austin in favor of
disincorporation. To this movement
the Reveille interposes its objections in
a well digested and dignifed manner.
The argument used by the Reveille in
opposition to disincorporation in Austin
applies very well in favor of incorpora-
ton Of some kind for Phoebe. We
quote:
1t is idle to talk about expense; for,
twist and turn az we may, we cannot
dodge the hiring of Waterman or two,
and this at present comprises the bulk
Of the city expenses. Outside of the DO
lice the only salaried officers of the city
are the Clerk and City Attorney, whose
united salaries amount to only 5000 per
annum, and even this can be reduced by
the Board of Aldermen if they see fit to
do so. If the city is disincorporated the
whole cost of whatever police may be
required will fall on few business
houses on Main street, who will have
to contribute a weekly or a monthly
sum, and they will find this to exceed
the amount of city tax which they now
pay while the streets will go to ruin and
be given up to hogs, goats and dogs. Let
those men who talk of disincorporating
weigh these matters well before they
put this thing in motion; or if they have
reasons which to us are not apparent,
let them be set forth so that the question
may be maturely acted upon.

The little son of Mr.. Roush, Helena,
Mon, is literally starving to death. Some
two years ago says the Herald. the little
fellow eat piece Of concentrated I've,
and ever since food has been forced into
his stomach by artificial means. But,
for three days, the little fellow has been
unable to take any nourishment what
ever, and he is slowly starving to death.
He cannot live much longer unless o
change takes place. Notwithstanding
the terrible suffering the boy has en-
dured for two long years, be is very
bright child, and has usually been quite
cheerful and pleasant.

An Alderman of this city states that by
the non-payment Of rents by various cor
porations within the past five years, the
Municipality has been swindled out of
some s3,0OO,OOO.
1t is stated that Nathan Appleton has
commenced suit against Bowles Bros,
for fraud, and General Davis has been
appointed receiver, he being now in pos
session of all the effects Of the late con-
Germ in this city.
1t is announced that in his will Edwin
Forrest leaves his entire property, even
his wardrobe and valuables, to be used
for home for destitute dramatic artists.
Sixty acres of ground within the limits
of Philadelphia have been made over to
the Corporation for the purpose set forth,
and IN after years those members of the
dramatic profession whose lives have not
been crowned with successful gains, may
enjoy the camforts Of beautiful home,
surrounded by reminders OF their art.
Forrest said to friend, less than
month ago, that this project had been
the main object Of his life for the past 35
years, and that he had made ample pro-
visions for carrying it out. 1t was his
desire that the endowment should be so
legally perfect, that there could be no
questions before the court about the
title. He said he wished his bequest to
be SO clearly understood that no one
would doubt his motive.

that this Court has no jurisdiction in

A SCANDAL story has obtainad
currency that the resignation of Justice
CARRIER, the appointment of Belknap as
his successor, and CAREERS retention as
counsel for the Raymond & Ely, were
all consummated with the unworthy
object of giving the Raymond 4 Ely an
undue advantage in heavy suit in
which that company is party. The
Carson Appeal and the Enterprise. while
wholly differing in politics from the
gentlemen who have been SO unjustly
assailed, pronounce the story scandalous
and utterly unworthy of belief. =

The recent fire in the Fifth Avenue
Hotel, New York City, is one of the most
lamentable events we have had to record
IN many day. The loss of property,
though very considerable, was nothing to
the destruction of human life, as %
persons, mostly females, fell victims to
the flames. To the horror of death un-
der such circumstances must be added
the reflection that the lives of those un-
fortunate ones were sacrificed to mans
cupidity, for it is stated that no alarm
was given, as might have been and
should have been, in time to allow the
hapless occupants of the burning build
ing to effect their escape. The matter is
undergoing investigation, and we hope
the guilty may be brought to Justice.

Nor DIAMONDS, BUT GoLD.-The Salt
Lake Herald contains some interesting
items concerning tract of country to
which public attention has been directed
for some months. We are we'll acquainted
with Mike Gray, who is one of Natures
noblemen. We copy from the Herald:
Capt. Mike Gray, u gentleman almost
universally known on the Pacific Coast,
and a man in the integrity of whose
statements we have implicit confidence,
arrived in this city yesterday. He was
the leader of a party supposed to have
gone in search Of the Lent Harpending
diamond fields, but he tells us that his
expedition was for purpose totally dis
connected from the diamond mania.
He left San Francisco in command of
well equipped party for the purpose of
ascertaining the truth of the statement
of guide whom they carried along, as to
the existance Of placer gold fields in
Northern Arizona. The party failed to
find the diggings they were in search of,
but they did find, int he southeast corner
of the Territory of Colorado, in the San
Miguel mountains, at the head waters of
the San Miguel and Dolores rivers, trib-
utaries Of the Colorado, large lodss of
argentiferous galena, specimens of which
shown US correspond in character and
richness with the highest grade ores of
the Cottonwoods and Dry Canyon.
He says that the extent OF the deposits
of these ores is enormous, and he has
left his party in close proximity to the
mines located by them, with the view of
commencing active operations in the
spring, if the results of assays of speci-
mems of ore he has with him answer his
expectations. The locality of these
mines is at an altitude above the sea
level Of about 5000 feet, and the winter
climate is intensely cold 1t is accessi-
BILE from the southern terminus of the
Denver and Texas narrow-guage railroad
from which it is distant 200 miles. By
consulting any OF the latest Territorial
maps the exact locality of these mines
can be seen and the route to them ascer-
tanned beyond the possibility of mistake
by any one accustomed to pioneering
these western wilds.

MONEY TIGHT.-We hear from various
sources that the money market is tight,
and as consequence mining stocks are
not commanding high figures. The
Oakland News may be right in the an
nexed paragraph bearing on the subject
1t is currently reported that the Bank
of California has borrowed all the loose
change to be procured, and is refusing
loans to operators and others, in order to
run down prices and purchase at its own
rates. This game has often been played
successfully, and will continue to win
until California falls in line with the rest
of the States and uses the National cur
rency.

northern half of the sky, noted eighty-six
in the hour from 1:37 to 2:47, A. NJ, to
which adding twenty for small ones nee

212 in the entire sky for one hour, or,
adopting Prof Loomis' estimate, 1886, 900
per hour over the whole earth. Most of
the meteors were small, radiating from a
point in the northeast, though occasional
ly moving in a different direction. The
display far surpassed any since 1860, and
altogether is regarded as one of the most
