no connection with the Fugitive Slave law, no

tells her how wrong it is for people at their age

shows her so clearly the folly of such a course
that she becomes ashamed of her weakness and

EAGLES FEEDING ON LAMBs.-The

lowing:
"a. J. Shuman, Of LINDA township, has
a large flock of ewes and lambs. Last
Friday he noticed stampede Of sheep in
the distance, and supposing some dog was
running among them, fastened to the spot,
where he arrived just in time to see large
eagle rise from the ground, bearing in his
talons fair sized lamb, and fly away with it
His attention was soon after attracted to
other work of destruction by the eagle
One lamb was found minus the top of his
skull and dead, whose head had been bro
ken by the eagle in an effort to capture it.
Another lamb was found minus an eye
which the voracious bird had struck with
his beak in one of his belligerent swoops
The careful shepherd took the wounded
lamb to the lamb hospital to be nursed-

BUFFALO Bills HoMEsTEAD--Ihe

had depuhzed Buffalo Bill to hold and oc
cupy it during his absence. The Colonel
went out to his intended homestead pro-
ceeded to erect a shanty, and went out to
eject the man who was trespassing on bis
property. Not knowing Buffalo Bill from
Buffalo Bull, he approached the gentle
man and ordered him to vacate the ranch.
Willism said something about Youba Dam,
when the Colonel Strengthened himself up
10 an attitude of freezing dignity, and de-
nanded, "Do you known who l am, sir

brave hunter replied that he didn't give a

FIGHT WITH BEAR One day several
weeks ago, james Brock went up into the
Gray Rocks this side of Copper City for a
hunt He found grizzly in cave and
took position near by aud waited fer the
game 10 come vi ! he bear soon emerged
from it's retreat and made bee line for
Brock who raised his rife and fred ball
which took effect in bruins head, produc-
ing wound which the hunter thinks "suf-
fcient to cause death o. great bodily injury "
But the shot did no change the bears uu-
friendly disposition towards Brock, for it
caught him by the thigh, gave it a nip or
two and then went for his head which he
ducked down between two rocks and thus
preserved his scalp. The hear apparently
became disgusted at this maneuver, andre
treated. Brock reloaded his gun and fired
a second shot, but with what effect he does
not know. as he was too lame to follow the
animals trail He considers himself luck y

TAxEs.-Never before in California were
the taxes for State and county purposes so
closely paid as upon the roll of1872. The
decision of the higher Courts sustained
with grand uniformity the validity of deeds
derived from tax sales obliges real estate
owners to pay promptly or run risk Of losing
all-and this risk no business man will run.
Besides, when all property is made to pay
its just proportion OF the public burden,
taxation will be ight and easy compared to
what it has been-for it is an absolute fact
that generally hetetofore the men of small
means had to stand the brunt of supper ing
the Government. The new "iull cash val
ue" principle in the Code anc the watchful-
ness Of the State Board Of Equalization, will
distribute the public load on to many strong
shoulders that have 10 the past been allow
ed to 60 iree-and these two things will be
worth to the people the entire cost of the
Code.
The property of California as assessed in
1872, would if distributed equally among
the people give to every person in the State
man, woman and child Sl,l35 or there
abouts, while the whole property of the
United States if distributed thus, would
give to each but S750.-Sacramento Bee.
