SOME EFFECTS OF THE RECENT STORM
IN CALIFORNIA. A California paper
details some Of the terrible effects pro-
duccd by the late heavy rains in that
State. 1t writes: Dwcllers along the
Sacramento and Napa rivers, as well as
upon the shores Of San Pablo Bay, daily
see floating down the streams and cast upon
the shores by the incoming tide the re-
mains of drowned animals, reminding
them forcibly of the sevcreness Of the
storm and the high waters in the interior
Of the State. On the south side of Mare
Island the carcasscs Of these dead animals
lay strewn along the beach for miles,
washed out by the tide water, and lie
there in state Of decomposition, making
the air putrid with their offensive odors.
Fortunately the dwelling houses on the
yard arc a sufficient distance from the
shore to render them safe from being
reached by the unpleasant atmosphere.
The number of cattle and sheep drowned
by the high waters must have been i'm.
mcnse.

SUDDEN DEArH-Last evening a man
named Dennis Bennett, who has Off
ciated az fireman at the Crescent Mill,
died very suddenly at his boarding
house on Gum alley, between Clay and
Lindsey street, near Seventh. Bennett
had been drinking pretty hard for sew
eral days and this. it is thought, was the
cause of his death. He was about
forty five years Of age. Squire Laun-
der was sent for, but thought it uunec-
essary to hold an inquest, as there was
no doubt as to the manner Of his death.
The Justice ordered a hearse and coffin
for the deceased, as it will be necessary
to inter him at the county's expense.

Hagan's Magnolia Balm. That peer

youthful beauty. All this is accom-
plished by the most natural means, viz
by gently and naturally stimulating the
circulation in the capillary blood yes;

How TO POP THE QURsr1oN.-A great
deal has been written and sung by way
of teaching young men how to pop the
question. In 8 town called Hscken-
sack, in New Jersey. which borders on
the United States, they reduce the
thing to a science. We have been
reading all about it, and give the infor-
nation we have acquired for the benefit
of our young lowers. First borrow q
pistol, then load it up with paper and
powder, but be careful not to put in any
lead. Call on your sweetheart, demand
that she shall marry you at once-the
nsrents' views are not to be considered.
II she hesitates, or ventures to refer you
to papa, present the pop.gun to your
own head and carry out Gen. Dix's
pstriotic instructions by shooting your
self on the spot-selecting the particu-
lar spot that may be most convenient
to Yourself and which by previous prac-
tice you know you can hit without
particular injury to your corporosity.
You pull the trigger report-a
scream-s faint-you are carried home
the object of your affections finally
marries you, unless she binds you over
to keep the peace, as is sometimes the
case, or gets her big brother TO whale
YOU into a calmer mental condition.
This, as we have said, is the way they
do it IN Hackensack, happy Hacken-
sack. But sometimes they Guido the
thing, even in Hackensack, as witness
the case Of Henry Quackenbusb, of the
advanced age of seventeen summers,
who loved not wisely but too well
Miss Cora Campbell, lady Of sixteen
mature years. Henry proposed and
was refused. He drew from his
pocket his little derringer and blank
cartridge. But Henry was excited and
wasn't used to this sort of thing. He
held his little derringer too close to his
little head, and now the autumn BIOS
SONS blow and nod over one of the
sweetest cases of congestion Of the
brain on record. Since Henry loving
Hoosier tried it on, few days ago, but
he lives-a sad example of an INSULT
cient charge of villainous saltpetre. W.
record these examples of an explosive
manner of popping the question for thu
admiration and emulation OF our fonc
young citizens. 1t is possible that or
the first attempt they may make al
miserable a failure OF it as Henry did
II they fear this and wish first rat'
obituary notice, they might leave with
us the particular points they most de-
sire to have remembered and recorded
before going to "pop."

POLICE CouRr.-The police, having Q

Burns says, and before night the Bois-
ferrous Boose was again incarcerated in
the horrible walls of the calaboose on
a charge of having been drunk and dis,

costs, and in defanlt Of ducats sent to
the chain gang for ten days more.
Neddy Powers is nice young man
but he will drink. Neddy was picked
up in the Second ward market house
yesterday morning, under one Of the
benches where he had tucked himself
away to sleep the sleep of the drunk.
He was fined 81 and costs. Being
without wampum, be received ticket

count for Neddy's absence from the

Frank Swain was the only one Of the
parties engaged in the Fifth ward mar
ket fight on Saturday night, introduced
to Judge Good. Constable Whlms
said that the three men were wrangling
and quarrelling together, and when he
heard blows struck he went over and
found Swain down and the other two
pounding him. Swain was fined 81
and costs.
David Lewis and George w. Smith
had a row in the Eighth ward on Satur
day. Because of the absence OF mater
ial witness on behalf of the city the
hearing of the charge Of disorderly con-
duct preferred against them was con-
tinued until this morning.

TINE VAST SALES OF TICKETS Al
ready made, and the increasing demand
for them from all quarters having deter
mined the Trustees that the Grand Gift
Concert for the benefit OF the Public Library
OF Kentucky, advertised for Saturday, Sep
TENDER 2S, 1872, shall positively come of on
that day without postponement, the man.
agement now notifies all who expect to
participate In the drawing that they should
buy their tickets at once. Delay for lew
days caused many who wanted tickets AT
the concert in December last to go without
them. Some living in Louisville waited
until sales were closed expecting, no doubt
a postponement, and then offered fifteen,
twenty and even twenty-five dollars for
tickets which the day before were offered TO
purchasers at the regular price. Others
living at distance sent thousands OF dol
lars by mail and express. which got here
after sales were closed, and had to be sent
back. These disappointments need not
occur again II the warning now given In
due season is needed.
The drawing will begin precisely at six
clock Saturday morning, September %,
1872, in the great hall of the Public Library
building, and continue until the one thou
sand gifts are all drawn.
