tracing parties being the Hon. W. H.
Beatty and Miss Love, sister Of County
Recorder Love of that place. Rev. j. D.
Hammond, of Austin, officiating. Judge
Beatty and wife, Immediately after the
ceremony, departed on their bridal tour,
and passed through town last evening
en- route to San Francisco. Il Eureka
Sentinel, 18th.
With great pleasure we take the oppor-
tunity of wishing Judge Beatty and his
fair bride all the happiness and pros
perity that they can possibly desire. We
have had the privilege Of the Judges
acquaintance for number Of years and
have always found him q reliable gentle
man of irreproachable character. As q
judicial officer, he has made an enviable
record for ability and uncompromisine
integrity, and in all respects has proved
himself valuable and trustworthy pub.
lie servant. The Judge is doubtless to
be felicitated on winning fair and
estimable wife, and she also may be con-
graduated on being united to SO worthy
gentleman. May their lot in this life
be bright and happy.

CENTENNIAL

The San francisco Bulletin. Of the
I4th inst, publishes some sensible re-
marks about the proposed celebration.
Among other things, it quotes from the
Philadelphia Telegraph to the effect
That the Centennial, as a national en-
terprise, 20 be conducted under the au-
spices OF the central Government, has
fallen through; and it thinks 1t would be
Just as well to recognize this fact by
abolishing the Centennial Commission
and creating in its stead body more
local in character. Now that the scheme
has proved failure, the Telegraph Is
even willing to admit that there are some
not very attractive features connected
with the Commission. 1t says that
there are some members OF 1t who are
utterly repudiated by the States which
they claim to represent, and whose OH
cial connection with the enterprise has
consisted SHELLY in their drawing mileage
as Commissioners, from the Centennial
treasury. One man, a resident OF q
neighborng State, has regularly drawn
mileage, not to aud from his actual resi-
dencs, but to and from the far distant
Territory of which he sits as represent
alive.
Thus it will be seen that the views of
the Philadelphians have been greatly
modified, and that they are now very
sensibly reverting to the plan of a purely
national celebration, which may possibly
include national exposition as one Of
its features. This is more in accordance
with the views Of the veteran Thurlow
Weed, which have met the concurrence
of Congress and very generally of the
people at large. This Centennial Com
mission, with its swarm of officials and
hangcrs-on drawing pay and mileage on
one pretext or other, was rotten
affair, that it is we'll to be rid of
The time and appropriate plan OF
grand National Fourth OF July celebra
ton on magnificent scale, suitable to
the dignity Of the nation and the i'm
portance OF the events of which it is the
anniversary and the epoch in which il
takes place, is gradually making way
among the Phiadelphians as it has al
ready done among the people generally
1t will then be great family gathering
at which the members will assemble tc
congratulate Uncle Sam on reaching his
One Hundreth Birthday, to Interchange
mutual fluctuations on the happy occas
ion and to review the intimate regard
and friendship which time and diverse
pursuits frequently cause to cease ever
among the nearest relations. Let the
day be consecrated by burying in oblir
ion all past differences and rendered Joy
Gus and hopeful by planting anew thu
sweet flowers of unseltish regard and fra
ternal affection.
