FROM CALIFORNIA.

San Francisco, 0. The China Trans paci-
fc Companys steamer Vasco da Cana, ar
rived last night from Yokohama, 18th ut.
The amount in the japanese treasury is no
less than $4,000, 900, including the last
English loan, and the surplus revenue of
1873, was nearly $1,000, 600.
\ small detachment of French troops sta
toned in Yokohama is about to be with
drawn.
TIE English soldiers, some four hundred
in number, remain in defiance of the wishes
Of the japanese government.
The relations between the government of
Japan and the foreign Ministers, excepting
the representatives of the United States, are
becoming more nharmonious. Japan still
resists the plans for opening the country and
requires street enforcement OF the treaties as
they stand, until a revision has been agreed
upon.

Varney's History of Maine.

Mr.. George ]. Narney, Of Brunswick, has
for several years been engaged in tie col!oc-
ton of material for history Of Maine, that
should be adapted to the youthful portion of
the community, and supply a want that has
long been felt among that class ofreaders. He
has brought his labors to close, and the re-
suit is the publication of "The Young Peoples
History of Maine" by Dresser, Mcclellan &
Co., of Portland. The author is naturally an
historical student; he loves to dclve among
musty records, to bring to the clear light
events that before were hidden and obscure;
TO seek for new Examinations along the high
WAYS of the past. lie is close thinker and
celebrates calmly on whatever subject he has
in hand Having for years been in the line OF
writing for the delectaton and instruction OF
children, he came to the work of preparing
Juvenile history with mind we'll trained and
disciplined for the task.
The history is written in pure and simple
English, the descriptions are liie'like, and the
whole true story interesting from beginning
to end 1t is hard in starting out on work
of this kind to avoid mistakes. Mr. Narney
shares the fate of all authors in this; but only
two or three have been pointed out OF any
consequence. The book will be valuable for
schools, the family, the public and private Ii
brary. Indeed arrangements have already
been made to Introduce it into the schools of
Portland and Lewiston, and it has received
the unqualified approval Of several teachers in
Augusta.
The publishers of the history have done
their work with great care. There are sew
eral capital iilustrations-the old block house
at Winslow, which is rapidly falling to decay
and ruin; the old garrison at York; Rallies
monument at Norridgewock; the Indian in
scription at Machiasport; the scene of Love
wells fight in Fryeburg, and several portraits.
We understand the work is for sale in Au-
gusta by J. +. Pierce.

Mr.. EDITOR Mrs. Flagg sold her beauti-
charged her whole mode of life, in order to
lay iho foundation for State Industrial
School for Girls. 1t was only by such sacri
fees that she could make the munificent Of
fer which she has made of $4,000, to save
some of these little waits of society from
growing up to lives of vice and shame. Others
have offered 50 500 more. Shall it be in vain
Shall nothing be done to prevent crime,
whilst we are paying SO much to maintain
courts, police, jails and prisons to prevent
it?
Passing last summer down one of our
streets, where the railroad runs along its side,
| noticed that powerful rain just fallen, had
made passage way under the rails, and was
washing away the earth, and rapidly deepening
its channel. One OF the employees of the rail-
road company was busy applying sods on the
lower side Of the track to stop the course of
the water, instead of stopping the channel en-
the upper side. This is just the policy of the
community. as to crime. We are trying to
dam up the flood gates after the torrent has
made its way through, instead of making any
effort to check it before it has done any dam
age.
On an average one bad woman exerts as
powerful an influence for evil as three bad
men. Why not make some effort to rescue
some of the triendless little ones, in danger
Of being lost, even if it costs trifle to save
them from becoming hope'e.sly corrupt!
