.CalifoTnia joe"
From the San Francisco Alta.

| fI From the San Francisco Alta
During tho rebellion, one of the
characters brought to light, and
who gained quite national cele-
brity, was "California Joe," one OF
Berdan's sharpshooters. Joe, after
the war, returned to California,
and since has lead O quiet, I'M
obstrusive life in the country, foi :
gotten by almost every one, because
a man, nowadays, must keep him
self before the people if he desires
TO be remembered. We are maxi
ing history too fast to look back
and scan the pages written few
years ago.
Yesterday morning, while going
to Oakland, one of our reporters
observed little, stoop-shouldered,
grizzly-haired, sharp-eyed man, Of
perhaps so years Of age, who car
ried in his hand heavy rifle, in
the Darrell of which was the ramrod
used for cleaning the gun. There
was some thing III the appearance
Of the man that caused our report
or to address him. A conversation
ensued, of which we shall give the
reader the substance. -
"Well, you see, I'm old Californy
Joe, and hain't bin doin' much for a
long time, and had been gettin' rus
ty like. / hain't smelt blood nor
had fight of any description for
so long that l really don't know
that am fit for anything, but you
see those Modoce have been play
ing a very rough game onto the
people in the North. They is good
fighters, and as mean Injins as ever
was seen, and L sorter think few
Of their skelps would ornament my
cabin. hain't got nary Modoc
sl1elp, and you know my collection
won't be complete unless kin get
some Modoc har to hang alongside
the other kinds. So, you see, I'm
going to the lava beds to take
hand in the little game that is be-
ing played thar. Maybe you will
hear the result of the crack of Joe's
rifle, and maybe the redskins will
lift my har, but one thing is GER
tain. I'm going to give them n
chance"
The boat reached the opposite
shore, and bidding the old man
with plenty of luck, we
saw him enter car and disappear
from view.
