The immigration OF Chinese to the
Pacific Coast this year will exceed that
of any previous year if it continues in
the ratio of its arrivals flom January 1st
to June Sth, not excepting that of 1852,
when it reached the grand total of $1,000.
Up to the present date the arrival of
Chinese immigrants at San Francisco
number about 7,497. The departures
are estimated at 10000, which leaves a
remainder of 81 900, deducting deaths
to represent the Chinese population of
California. During the same period of
1S53-73 the arrivals of whites have
been 665, 900, against 427 900 departures,

YESTERDAY MORNING the body of II. S.
Whiting was found, with his head
crushed and mangled, and life nearly e1-
tinct, about three miles this side of Rose
vile. He left Roseville shortly before 5
O'Clock on Wednesday afternoon for his
home, he being a farmer living about
four miles this side of the village. At
the time he was slightly intoxicated.
When found he was lying in the ditch at
the side of the road, with one horse
lying across his breast. The animal was
itself nearly dead. The other horse was
standing at the side of the ditch. The
suppositioni is that Whiting fell from the
wagon under the heels of the horses,
frightening them, and that they kicked
his head very severely. They soon got
into the ditch where they were found
yesterday. Mr.. Whiting died soon
after Sac. Record, July 4th.
