This is rather old, but also rather good
A lad was about to incur the penalty of
disobedience. The father deliberately pre-
pared rod, while his son stood sad, ST.
lent spectator. As the parent approached
the unpleasant duty, the boy started at a
brisk run toward neighboring hill. The
father pursued, and for time the young
ster increased the distance between them /;
but gradually his strength began to fail,
and when he reached the hill and began to
ascend, soon lost vantage ground. Nearer
and nearer the irate father approached, and
just as the top of the hill was reached, and
as he came within arms length of the lit
tie fugitive, who was ready to fall from
exhaustion, the boy quickly faced about,
dropped upon the ground, an with an in
describable east of countenance, exclaimed,
"Papa, that-makes fellow-blow don't

pealed so strongly to the parents risibility
as to unfit him for the duty which he had
been in such haste to perform a moment
before.

INCREASE OF SALARIEs.-AmCng the
earliest bills, and the most numerous on

salaries of County Judges. They pour in
from all quarters, and will continue to in

Most of the counties are already saddled
with debts which they are unable. to pay.

them, in view of all the circumstances, is
au outrage upon the people. If those
Judges asking the increase were satisfied
with their per diem at the time of accept

it still. At any rate, the times are not ia

of the counties, already in many cases too

| CALIFORNIA TEA PLANTATION

At Colonel w. ". HOLSTERS saw
something had never seen before. The
Colonel has tea plantation, in an evident
ly fourishing condition; but, though the
plants look thriving, and the planter
believes that, in time, he will reap an
abundant harvest, this is venture l
should not advise many to embark in for
the present. Fortunately, Colonel Hollis
ter has both the means and the disposition
to make these experiments, of which the
farming community of all California will
some day reap the benefit. Shall expose
my ignorance by confessing that l never
before knew that there is really but one
tea-plant? The different varieties we buy
are only the result of the different manipu-
latious in preparing it for the market.
The plants themselves look to me like little,
young orange trees. / saw them from one
to four inches in height, and the seeds are
about the size and shape of small hazel
nut. Together with the tea, the Colonel
has imported two olive japanese" to take
charge of the plantation so that if tea
raising succeeds at all, it certainly will
here. His almond orchard, too, is on a
grander scale than that of his .neighbors !;
fifty thousand trees have alroao, been set
out-some of them, in fact, are over two
years old-and fifty thousand more are now
being planted. Speaking of his neigh
bors, they are not so near The Colonel
has a hundred thousand acres, more or less,
on which to plant tea, cotton or Canada
thistles, should he choose ose-Overland

TEHAMA BRIDGE-The high water in
the River on Monday washed out some
of the piles and piers placed under the
central portion of the Railroad bridge at
Tehama, causing the structure to tip over
on its side into the water, where it now
lies partially submerged. The bridge has
been secured by chains, and will be replac-

run to Sessma, and no boats can ascend
above the fallen bridge.

OF CoURsE.-The Sacramento Record,
organ of the Railroad Company, is clamor-
Gus for the repeal of the fence law. The
Company wants to rent its odd sections t,
sheep-raisers, knowing that Do-fence law
weuld have the effect of compelling settlers
on even sections to keep their small bands
of stock corralled, and thus allow sheep
men to moncpolize, not only the range on
odd sections, but also on the unclaimed
Government land adjoining. Of course
the Railroad Company, and all their strik-
ers, are in favor ola no-fence law, and

GRAND JURY REPORT.

To the Hon. County Court of the county
of Shasta:
We the Grand jury summoned and em-
panelled for the January Term of the coun-
ty court, A. D. 1872, most respectfully re-
port ::
That we have carefully examined into all
the cases brought before us and have ,und
four true bills of Indictment which are
herewith presented.
The committe appointed by US to exam
inc the County Hospital, consisting of
Messrs. johnson, Simpson and Hawes, re-
port that they find the Hospital in neat and
orderly condition; that they found there,
some eight or nine patients ~ho stated that
they were well treated and cared for.
The committee appointed to examine the
County Jail, consisting of Messrs Ketchum,
Kingsbury, and Allen, report that they
find six prisoners confined there, who state
that they are well cared for and had no CON-
plants to- make; that the Jail appears to
be in good and orderly condition.
The committee on Records, consisting Of
Messrs. Mount, Williams and Kern, after
partially examining the County Records
report that SO far as they are able to ascer-
tain, they are kept in proper manner,
with the exception of the Assessment Roll
for the fiscal year of 1s71-72, which was
examined BY the Jury as committee of
the whole, and we must say that said Roll
is in very bad condition, it appearing that
there has been large number of mistakes
made in said Roll, to the prejudice of the
county, and we further find that the De-
linquent List is still in the hands of the
Collector, when by law it Should have been
turned over 70 the Auditor, and District
Attorney, some time since. The Collector
stated to US that he finds it almost impos-
sible to make proper return of said List
by reason of errors occurring in the Roll
We find it beyond our power to enter into
full and complete Investigation of the
correctness or incorrectness of the County
Records with the limited means at our
command.
We also find that there are quite num-
Der of Taxpayers of the county who were
not assessed for the fiscal year of 1871-72.
And in view of the foregoing circum-
stances, we would respectfully recommend
that the Board of Supervisors or any Conn
ty officers upon whom the duty may fall,
that they use their utmost endeavors, to
straighten out in as satisfactory manner as
possible the Assessment Roll and the er-
rors occurring therein, and see to it that
the revenue of the county is not lessened
or diminished by reason of the errors afore-
said.
All of which is respectfully submitted.

Every year increases the POPULAR
ty of this valuable Hair Preparation;
which is due to merit alone. We
can assure our old patrons that it is
kept fully up to its high standard;
and it is the only reliable and perfect
ed preparation for restoring GRAY
OR FADED HAIR to its youthful color,
making it soft, lustrous, and silken.
The scalp, by its use, becomes white
and clean. 1t removes all eruptions
and dandruf, and, by its tonic prop
critics, prevents the hair from falling
out, as it stimulates and nourishes
the hair-glands. By its use, the hair
grows thicker and stronger. In
badness, it restores the capillary
glands to their normal vigor, and
will create new growth, except in
extreme old age. 1t is the most eco
nomical HAIR DRESSING ever used,
as it requires fewer applications,
and gives the hair a splendid, glossy
appearance. A. A. Hayes, Md
State Assayer of Massachusetts,, says,
"The constituents are pure, and care
fully selected for excellent quality;

RATION for it's intended purposes"

RAILROAD LANDs.-The Oregon & Cali
fornia Railroad Company are holding their
lands in Butte County at from SIS to $S
per acre, to the great disappointment of
many parties who voluntarily forfeited pre-
emption rights thereon, calculating to ulti-
mately buy of the Company at about
Government prices. Railroad men make
very favorable promises to settlers having
pre-emption filings on odd sections, but
when settlers believe them, and let their
claims go by default with the view of
purchasing of the Railroad Company after
ward, they find themselves duped, and have
to pay very roundly for their experience.
