A Stanislaus county correspondent
of the S. f. Bulletin says: 1t is uni
versally conced that the yield is not
so heavy as was anticipated before
harvest commenced. The falling off
appears to have been in the volunteer,
which, in some places, in and around
Turlock, for instance, was scarce worth
cutting. One prominent Granger, whe
threshed around the county fifty-three
days this season, informed me that
his invariable experience was great
falling off in this particulr, and he
alone placed the estimate for this
year for the county at not more than
two-thirds of the crop of 1872. His
figures bring up the amount to about
100000 bushels.

Orleans letter which speaks as follows OF
Colonel Wright. the State Registrar:
Contrary to all the warnings of tie pa.
triots. registration is progressing to the
entire satisfaction of reasona bic and fair
minded people. Judge Woods appointed
supervisors on Recommendation of the ward

happy inspiration, replaced Thomas Lynne

ping commissioner for the port, an honest
man, sensible, self.contained, clear ad-
ed, well meaning officer. He wants to do
the fair and manly thing, and being in
earnest, will ind ways of doing it.
The fact is that strange as it may appear,
Kellogg wants a fair deal, in New Orleans;
at least. A hundred reasons, prominent
among which is the determined attitude of
the White League, impel him in this matter.
and verify believe it is his intention to
have the entire affair conducted with decent
regard to impartiality and rectitude.

it is true, and subordinately because l like

The Situation,

A reporter OF the REPUBLICAN vieited the
State House las: evening at eight o'clock.
and interviewed ColoHe! Penn. That gen.
tleman stated that everything was quiet,
and that he regarded his eituation in a
military point of view. He would there
fore devote himself to business. and the
securing Of possession.
Our reporter experienced but little diff.
Guilty in obtaining admission. and every
courtesy was extended him.
The Penn government and official adjurcts
are defiant and reliant. They scout the idea
tha: the President will Interfere. They are
confident, bold and resolute. and a very
strong detachment OF the United States
army will be required to discomtit them il
they retain their present frame Of mind.
On the other hand. General Longstreet
and others appear equally certain Of sue
cess. They expect by Monday to be sup
ported and reinstalled by federal power.
Ersconced in the Customhouse. they amuse
Themselves as best they may. awaiting
further developments.
This state Of things can no: long continue
Commerce is paralyzed and there is a
hiatus in government. McEnery arrived
late last night. but his presence can not
possibly change the situation. A telegram
has Just now been received 70 the effect that
the insurgeR gov vernment shall not be re-
cognized. The insurgents are granted five
days from date Of proclamation to disband
their forces and dissolve their so-called gov
ernment. Their forces are ready at hand
though nominally at home. and their gov.
ernment is nomin ally peaceful, though sup
ported by an armed mob. As soon as the
boys in blue shall have arrived bloody work
NAV be expected. unless the Pennies throw
down their arms. The result is awaited
with confidence and without fear.

There was little trouble in finding judges

Judge Abel opened court and adjourn.

is no necessity for the judge OF criminal

there was. It's of no consequence, however.
Judge Tisso: heard all the motions about

Judge Meunier was not present. but il was
rumored Judge Monroe would do his bust.
ness for him. But he didn't.
The Fourth District Court was not in
session, Judge Linch not having intended
to open court as he had no cases fixed.
Judge Bonner was reported to intend to oc.
cupy the bench. but he made no sign.
Judge Cullom. of the Fifth District Court;
was in town, but there was nothing to in.
duce hin to open his court. and he had no
rival TO undertake 70 do it for him.
Judge Saucier was in the court building.
but did no business.
Two judges of defu net courts were re-
ported to exist.
Judge Collens, of the Seventh District
Court, the cases Of which having long since
been transferred to other courts, and deter.
mined was confidently expected to mount
some empty bench and demand business.
He however only chatted with some friends.
and then went away.

facts being untrue, and the probability of
something else being the case if it were not
