can Republic, who has been in WASH.
ington a few days, contradicts all the
stories which have been set afioat as TO
the meaning of his presence there. He
has merely stopped in Washington,
while en- route for Europe, for reasons
Of a private and personal nature en-.
tirely. Baez denies that his life was
threatened before he left the island, or
that he was deposed. Gonzales was
elected to succeed him by the people.
and ne parted from HIM in the most
friendly manner. On arriving at New
York, he addressed a communication
to the President, stating that he would
like to visit the capital of the United
States, and meet the President person
ally, If he had no objections. The
President directed the answer be
made that there was no obiectio So
Baez coming to Washington. Since his
arrival at the national capital he has
been received by both the President
and the Secretary of State, but, of
course, entirely as the retired Presi-
dent of a neighboring republic.

the extravaganza OF public Off sas, aud com-
plain OF the wrongs inflicted upon Us by those
whom We have lntrnsted with power, let us
not still further wrong ourselves by living
above our means, and involving ourselves in
debt, thus sacrificing peace, comfort aud IN.

The San Francisco Alta of February
16 says that the fall OF rain during the
preceding week had cut off the hope of
sowing many thousands of acres in the
vicinity of San Francisco Bay with
grain in time for a crop, the low lands,
and especially the adobe soils, being so
full of water that two weeks of clear
weather would not fit them for plow-
ing. The Alta adds: Experience
has shown that fields sown III March
with grain are Improbable in three out
of four years; and rather than make
more experiments in that line, many
farmers will let their land lie falloW.
In the sandy districts the rainfall has
been less, the soil has not at any time
been in bad condition for blowing, and
the fields supplied with irrigation and
not yet sown can be planted with cot.
ton or castor bean, which do not thrive
in the cooler climate near the ocean.
At MillertoD, which is further south
than any of the important grain dis
tricts in the San Joaquin Valley, the
ram fall has been fourteen inches
sufficient. SO far, for all purposes of
