BEN BUTLER sTILL ABOUT.

Washington Special u New York Tribune.
1t was supposed by some people, who
were not aware Of the knowledge pos
sessed by Gen. Butler on inside mat
ters in Washington, that the Essex
statesman's power, now that he has re-
tired to private life, was at an end. If
the reports now current here Of his
strength for the Attorney Generalship,
the facility with which he rushes claims
through the departments, and the hest
tation shown on all sides to oppose
him in any scheme, T half true, he Is
as powerful with the President as ever,
and divides the hOnOrs with Shepherd
and Babcock.
It will be remembered that Clement
High Hill was recently crowded out of
the Office Of the Assistant Attorney
G~eperalship, a position he resigned to
take eject May Is. 1t is now claimed
by Gen. Buffers friends that Mr.. Hill
was the last of the Federal ofice-hold-
ers in this city from New England who
We're inimical to Gen. Buffers ambi-
tons, the intimatIon being plain
that the Essex eX- representative
had procured Mr.. Hills re-
tirsment. The friends Of the
safe burglars, whom MIR. Hill, as the
Governments attorney, IN connection
with Mr.. Riddle, Prosecuted with such
vig9r, are Of the opinion that Nh. Hill
got out Of Office, in consequence of
his actiJn. by Shepherd, Babc0ck and
other friends Of Harrington. 1t is
kuown that the Attorney General a
opposed to Mr.. riiI's retirement, and
that the Justices Of the United States

Meeting of the Democratic State Gem
trat Committee.

SAN FRANCISCO, March 27th,-The Demo-
cratic State Central Committee adjourned last
night sine die, after two days session with
closed doors. A report of the deliberations in
detail will be furnished by the Secretary, but
the conclusions ON leading matters are as fol-
lows: The State Convention has been called
to meet in San Francisco, June 18th. The
basis of representation TO be on the vote for
Haight in 1871, one representative for every 200
votes so cast; one for every fraction of 200 over
100; and one for each county in addition.
Modoe, Ventura and San Benito are entitled
to two representatives each. The Executive
Committee was directed to call primary in
San Francisco on April oath TO elect seven rep
resentatives from each Senatorial district.
These will constitute the Democratic County
Committee of 35 and they VIII also constitute
the District Committees and have power To
call conventions for nominations for senators
and Assemblymen. They shall also appoint
polling places, judges, inspectors, and pre-
scribe II test for the voters. The test OF voting
at primaries makes eligible those who are OPP
posed TO the present National Administration
and pledge themselves to vote for the nomi-
nees of the Democratic State Convention. The
Delegates to the State Convention from each
Congressional District will constitute the Con-
gressional Convention. IL was directed that
the Chairmen of the Contesting Committees
in san joaquin county shall unite in calling
a convention to elect delegates to a State Con-
yention. and in case of n refusal OF one the
other shall act.

A Murmur.

There is no doubt but that the steam
ship company desire to do all in their
power to accommodate the people of
Southern California. GOODALL, MEL
SON & PERKINS promised when they
obtained control of the Southern Coast
carrying trade that they would leave
no means untried to meet the demands
of their patrons, and We are confident
they meant to redeem their promise.
But errors will creep in, and when they
do people will complain. In order that
the company may know of these COM
plants and correct them,we write this
article. 1t is, if not a common thing
at least quite frequent to receipt for
goods in San Francisco to be shipped
on one steamer and yet leave
them on the wharf to be shipped
by the next steamer. This is
an inconvenience and often an
injury to the consignee, besides in
volving a possible loss; for it frequent
ly happens that merchants here re-
ceive advices that their goods have
been shipped on a steamer named and
had them insured on that steamer. 1t
sometimes happens that goods for Los
Angeles are carried on to San Diego
and brought back. This involves a
delay often incenvenient and expens-
i've. There is also some complaint by
passengers of the food and treatment

Building Lots.

The near approach of the day on
which the lots in the Woolen Mill
tract will be sold at auction, shows an
earnest desire on the part of the many
newcomers to secure property in that
locality on which to build homes.
The close proximity of these lots to
the business portion of the city, their
elevated position, their excellent soil
and the facility with which an abund-
ance of water may be obtained from
the Wooen Mill ditch, together with
the fact that the water company's
pipes will soon be laid over the entire
tract, gives the property a high value
and will produce an unusual number
of purchasers on the day of sale.

CITY AND COUNTY OFFICIAL PAPER.
SUNDAY. MARCH 2s, 1875.
Not Animosity.

ANDY JOHNSON said when he re-
turned to the Senate he would bury
all his old animosities. 1t was gen.
erous promise, and wsrthy of the man
who made it. But since his speech
the other day Administration jour
nails are charging him with failing to
redeem his pledge. 1t follows then
that an arraignment of the Admins
tration on charges so self-evident that
they need no proof; an earnest appeal
for justice to his countrymen and a
solemn protest against further def
ance of the Constitution and the laws,
is, in the estimation of those journals,
a rekindling of old animosities-a re-
lighting of the old camp-fires and re-
declaration of war on the part of
JOHNSON. If we were the editor of
Republican organ we should hesitate
before branding truths as animosities.
We. should pause before holding up
an appeal for a cessation of persecu-
ton in the light of hatred, and we
should fear that an attempt to distort
prayer for obedience to the law and
reverence for the Constitution into
manifestations of hatred and animos-
ity, would be detected by the people
and ourselves in place of the man we
sought to misrepresent, be held
up to ridicule and detestation. In the
estimation of fair-minded people-of
those who love their country and
would see it's Constitution enforced
and its laws obeyed-to attack wrong
and denounce oppression, is not reviv-
ing old animosities. When it can be
made so, the life of the Republic is in
danger, and the date of its dissolution
almost within the lifetime of the pres
ent generation.

Our City Schools.

In view of the fact that an election
is soon to be held for the purpose of
providing means for increasing our
school facilities, the following infor-
nation will be of interest to our citi-
zens: The present High School build
ing will be sufficient to accommodate
the High School for several years to
come. by sending into other houses
the lower grades, as the number of
High School pupils increases. Its
central and beautiful location renders
it just the place for the head of the
schools in the city. The Eighth-street
school is to be raised next year to the
grade of an intermediate school, and
the year following to the grade of a
Grammar school. The Bath-street
school, when changed to its new loca-
tion neal the hospital, will be to the
Northern part of the city what Eighth
street is to the Southern part. These
two schools will relieve the pressure
on the High school building and ena-
BILE it to accommodate the Grammar
grades for the central part of the city.
as well as the higher grades from the
entire city. Spring street school
house, in which the three lowest
grades are now taught, will have an
addition built to it in order that all
the divisions of the Primary grade
can be taught in it. This will afford
ample accommodations for small chill
dren in the central and most thickly
settled ward. The remaining schools
will all be of the Primary grade. They
are located in the suburbs of the city,
making, with those already estab-
lished, complete circle of schools,
tributary first to the two Grammar
schools and through them to the High
school. The Board of Education has
very wisely considered the claims of
all, not only for the present, but for
the future. If the people vote to raise
the reasonable sum asked by the
Board, there will soon be neat school
house in East Los Angeles, one near
the Fruit-drying works, one on Kohler
street, near Alameda, one on San Pc
dro, near Washington, one on Wash
ington, near Figueroa, one near the
Woolen Mill, and one in some central
location for the colored children. Last
year the three-year-old town of Mo-
desto voted a tax of $4,000 to build
school house. All are now proud of
the house and proud of the school that
is in it. In 1873 Oakland raised by
special tax $4,000 for building pur-
poses.

friends Of parties now in the Black Hills over
a report brought in by one of Professor
Marsh's exploring party that Lame Antelope,
with large body OF warriors, armed with
needle-guns, has started TO attack the mining
camp established in the hills. General Ord
yesterday telegraphed to one of the miners
recently returned TO Sioux City, and who
asked the General whether he would be per-
mitted to return with reinforcements and
provisions, as follows: Troops from Fort
Laramie and hostile Indians have both gone
for your miners. For their sake, hope the
troops may reach them first, as their orders
are simply to bring in the party, confine
the leaders, burn their wagons and destroy
their outfit.
