MINED SCHOOLS.

And now comes Senator Stewart with
his little Ratchet, and gives his contribu-
tory slash at the gooily tree Of common
school education, that was spreading its
branches all over the land, and rescuing
the people from ignorance and its con-
comitants vice and superstition. Stew
art offers an amendment TO that much
tinkered instrument, the federal consti-
tuition, giving authority to Congress to
establish common schools in such States
as omit to provide them. We must,
however, en- PEASANT give Stewart credit
for more consistency than Sargent, his
fellow railroad attorney. Stewart is de.
termined to carry his negro notions to
their logical termination. Sargent is not.
Stewart not only insists on having mixed
schools, il any. bat goes further aud
offers an amendment to the constitution
to enforce the establishment OF the
schools, aud as the existing legislation

ment is agreed to, Stewart will then ave

sion. These new tangled scholastic no.
tions of the Honorable Senator cause rec
ollectiops of other days to arise, when
his esteemed and respected lady was
teaching school in a mountain town in
California. We wonder if she would
have felt pleased to have had number
OF young American citizens OF African
descent, sandwiched in among her schol-
ars. Or still further, if she would have
liked her amiable and estimable daughter,
Mrs. Hooker, to have been elbowed by a
bare-footed, out of elbows, generally un-
savory young cuffee. Now, without the
slightest disrespect to the ladies we have
named, whom We well know to be
worthy Of all honor. consideration and
readily accord Still we must submit,
that there are hundreds and thousands
of other ladies in the United States
whose feelings in regard to the associa-
tons among which their children are to
mingle, are equally worthy of considera-
ton, as the family of the Honorable Sen
ator. We, therefore, say that he should
put himself in their place Let his
thoughts revert back to the time he was
vibrating between that little old Court
house on Durgan Flat, and his'otfice on
the other side OF the river, and ask him
self how he would have liked the propo-
sition to compel the children he so
tenderly loved, to associate daily and
hourly with young negroes. If such 1
scheme had been preached to him, ther
we think that the man who did it would
have had an accurate measurement of hi
length imprinted on the banks Of tn

PARIS, May 29.-The Left Center held a
meeting to-day to consider the means of
opposing the Bonapartists. NJ Favre
advocated an alliance with the Right
Center, in order that the organization of
the Senate might be completed, the cleo
toral laws passed, and the dissolution of
the Assembly voted for. He considered
the elections would be more moderate if
held under settled government. The
meeting adjourned until Monday, when
final action will be taken as to the course
necessary.
The Committee of the Assembly hay-
ing the subject under consideration ap-
proved Of postal convention between
France and the United States, but have
decided to hear the statements of De
Coses and the Postal Director before
making report to the Assembly.
The Roman Catholic pilgrims from

1t is said that Prince Hohenloke, the

SMELLING WORKS.

Sacramento has walked up to the I'M
portance of reducing the ores which have
been passing her doors, rather than let
this be done in San Francisco and Oak
land. As first step q company has
been organized, and two furnaces as
starter constructed, with design OF add
ing more as fast as the business will JUS
tify. Everything is ready for operations
so soon as smelling ores can be had.
Arrangements for buying in the Utah
market have already been made, but the
season is SO backward there, that it may
be some time before q supply of ores can
be had from that market. Other local
tiles have sent in samples Of ores, but
are too DESTROYS OF selling their mines.
The company wish to buy good smelling
ores, it does not propose to speculate in
mines. 1t is the intention OF the com
pany to buy and smelt both iron and
copper ores of sufficient value to bear
transportation. A market for them can
now be found at Sacramento.

LONDON, May 29.-Tbe report in the
evening papers Of the terrible mining
disaster at Clay Cross proves unfounded.
The correspondence of the British For
eign Office arising ont Of the capture of
the yirginius and subsequent execution
of her passengers and crew, is officially
published. 1t contains dispatch of as
late date as May Z, 1874, sent by Earl
Derby to Layard the British Minister at
Madrid, in which the former says: "1n
view of the grave difficulties of the Gov
eminent of Spain, Her Majesty's Gov
eminent has hitherto been unwilling to
press for an answer to its demands for
an Acknowledgement of wrong done and
for compensation to the relatives of the
victims who were subjects of GreatBritain,
we now trust there will be no further de-
lay on the part of the Spanish Govern
ment.''

LAST evening about O'Clock every
body in the central part of the city was
startled by tremendous crash. The
roof and floors Of the two.story brick
building on the southeast corner of G
and Union streets had all fallen. Work
men we're engaged upon this building
at taking down the gable ends, and it
was at first supposed that several men
were killed. Two or three men were
seen on the fiat roof of the building as it
went down, and others were known to
be on the floors below. Regardless of
the danger from the cracked and
bullying walls, men rushed into the
ruins, ready to assist any who might
be wounded and in need of aid.
The only man found who was in need of
assistance was A. Z. Pottle, the well
known carpenter and builder. He was
on the second floor when the crash came.
| How he escaped instant death we cannot
conceive. On being rescued he was
bleeding profusely from number Of
wounds on the head, was bleeding from
the nose, and showed several bruises
about the face. He was also hurt about
the hips, but being led by two men, was
able to walk to his room-about q hun.
bred yards distant. Although his wounds
are quite severe, the physician who at.
tended him does not consider any OF
them Of dangerous character Vir

SINCE the breaking of the dam on Mill
river, in Massachusetts. the Reno tres-
cent says the people Of Truehee Valley
are alarmed on account Of the Won
Schmidt dam. The Crescent says:
We do not know the hight of the dam.
nor the amount Of water accumulated
by it in Lake Tahoe, hut We do know
that it will hold a thousand times more
water than caused the Massachusetts dis
aster, and tbat of the thousands of peo-
pie on the line of the food. should n
break occur, not one would be left TO tell
the tale. Every human being in this val
ley would be swept to certain destruc-
ton; every foot of land would be covered
with mass Of rubbish. timbers, rocks
and sand, such as would preclude the
fsintest hope of the recovery of a single
body. We cannot say that such catas-
trophe is likely to occur this year or
next, but We do say that it is only a
question of time, and it may come any
day of the year. No man can accurately
measure the power of resistance Of the
Won Schmidt dam. No man can realize
the immense pressure it will be called
upon to sustain-a body OF water from
30 to 30 miles long, IL to 10 miles wide,
and from six to twelve feet in depth,
often times driven by furious winds. II
is doubtful if even now it is safe for a
day or an hour.

HUMAN HERDS.

In the article which Rochefort wrote
for the Chronicle on the political situa-
ton in France he alludes to /" those mar
Vicious simpletons who believe that
France was made for them" Are not
the simpletons on the other side of the
questionable people that permit them
selves to be made use Of? Who that
has ever watched a vast herd of cattle
being driven to the slaughter pens, or
band of horses mads to enter an enclos-
IRE, where the fret are made the food,
and the latter the servant OF man, but
thought that il those powerful animals
only knew their own strength and the
fate that awaited them, they would turn
upon and rend the few puny beings that
were controlling them, and then assert
and enjoy their freedom. Yet mankind
follow the same blind, suicidal paths
that lead to death and subjugation.
Look at this moment to Continental
Europe, with its millions of armed SOL
diery, that are drawn from the
ranks of the producers, and have
to be armed clothed, fed and
equipped at the expense of those who
toll. And what for? For the protection
and benefit of the people? No! thou
sand times no; but for the purpose Of
depressing them, and for keeping them
in that condition Of subjugation that
they must supply men to be slain, labor
ers to labor, and money to support those
who by accident, fortune or design, be-
come their rulers. How singular it does
seem, that blessed as human beings are
with reasoning faculties, they do not
make use of them to assert their rights
to the enjoyment of life, liberty and
property, and throw off the yoke that
kingcraft has so long asserted over them.
We then should not hear of the barbaric
splendors of the Russian marriage, min
gled with the groans of Polish women
and children, scourged unto death for
conscience sake. We should not then
hear of eight or ten years being taken
out of the life of every able bodied man
for military servitude, as in Germany
and France, The people of Continental
Europe would then labor for themselves,
and enjoy the fruits of their tolls, instead
o! sacrificing their lives and property in
behalf of some wretched pretender, who,
like the herdsman and the vaquero,
laughs at the folly of the herd that he
drives to death or submission.

ANOTHER food of water poured down
Taylor street yesterday afternoon about
O'Clock. This last rush of water did
no damage, as it was kept in the street
named by parties who stationed them
selves at the corners of A, b, G and
other streets, and, armed with shovels,
kept the torrent in its straight and mar
row way. No two men tell the same
story about where these intermittent
floods come from, and their starting
point is mystery second only to that of
the source of the Nile. All that appears
to be certainly known is that the torrents
came down from overlooking shafts or
ieaky tunnels situated on the mountain

TOPSY-TURVY.

Some years since, and but few at that,
it was an established maxim of political
economy among American publicists that
Governmental interference, control or
participation in commercial enterprises,
in any form, was to be greatly depre-
Gated and always avoided. The lapse,
however, OF twelve years has produced
total reversal Of this maxim. We will not
say in the people generally, but in that
pestilent element, professional politi-
clans, and the poisonous spawn OF the
civil war, the various rings that are now
organized, like bands of bandits, to prey
upon their fellow citizens and their
country. With both these classes, and
unhappily for the country's well-being,
they are both murderous and powerful.
The aid, the guarantee, the absorbence
by Government is invoked for every en-
terprise that, by the greatest stretch Of
the Imagination, can be made to assume
national or important character. Not
mile of railroad can be constructed hut
the Government must give so much or
guarantee something else. Steam lines
have to be subsidized; ship building asso-
Citations ask for guarantees. Then it is
proposed to absorb the telegraph lines,
to set up banks, and what not besides.
Added to all this, such manufactures as
have men connected with them OF suffici-
ent wealth to pay lobbyists and enough
leather in their lungs to continually bray
for protection, as they call it, then they
cause the whole country to be taxed to
enable them to make monster fortunes.
Luckily the excess to which this vicious
and dangerous system is being carried is
likely to work its own cure. Men en-.
gagged in other undertakings besides
building railroads with other people q
money are considering why they also
should not be subsidized. They say,
and very reasonably. il Tom Jones

ing mile OF railroad, why
should not Tom Tomkins get sc
much for rearing 30 many sheer

mining so much gold and silver, or doing
anything else by which he hopes and ex
poets to get return for his labor ant
capital. Why should meal be made o.
one and malt of another? What have
these railroad and steamboat men done
that they should be presented with
colossal fortunes, and the rest OF folks,
much more honest, useful and merito
rious, are whistled down the wind Of

The CENTENNIAL.-The Philadelphians

notion of a grand national gala day,

liberty and prosperity, is the best. If
the Philadelphians thus modify their
