OUR CALIFORNIA LETTER.
From our Special Correspondent ]

DEAR TIMEs:-The world moves.
Stocks are beginning to look for
ward. The Bank of California is
to be put in motion. Sharon as
President; one or two stock minip-
sulators as Directors. What an
assurance the sanguine have; how
their hearts beat, as they think of
the COOL time coming, and the way
eke world OF stocks is going to be
managed. Magnificent No one
knows what u.k is in store for
them; but don't invest in that Bank
stock just at present, and don't
make new deposits yet, would be
the advice of the unfortunate
human being, supposed to be a
woman, who now addresses you.
Sharon is going to be married
again is the ION dit" of the social
world, which undergoes revolution
mt present SO frequently, nobody is
surprised at anything. The bride
ae-be is very young, too young for
Mr.. Sharon; but when men pass
fifty, no one is too young for them.
Up to that time they are supposed
to retain their sense and reason as
regards women. After that. woe
be to any young girl who looks for
money alone as q companion for
life in the man she marries. If o
millionaire smiles upon her, she
makes the sacrifice, and Joy go
with her, If she is ha. py in the
sacrifice, and why should she not
he2 Is it not expected of every
woman to sacrifice to the comfort
of man, and the greater the sacri-
flee the greater ought it not to be
the comfort? That old churl, DR..
johnson, said that men knew wom-
en- to be an overmatch for them,
and so they choose the weakest and
most ignorant. Now it may be
that, after all, woman who mar
ries for money is neither weak nor
ignorant; she recognizes the lover
that moves the world, and wishes
to get her hand upon it-and being
capable Of making great sacrifices,
a man may find himself mistaken
in supposing. in taking n young
girl to manage, he is only going to
make his own life attractive, he is
very often greatly mistaken, and
fms, after all, that the young,
weak. inexperienced girl, is more
than match for him. All this is
apr0pOs OF Mr.. Sharon. and the !
ION Dat. which may be but hear
say. after all.
The Buiiettns s suit against the /
when the suit comes up, il will af
ford some newspaper items, which !
will serve that much of use, III nothing |
more. Newspaper quarrels, may of
all things in the word be the most |
useful, but the poor subscribers are
greatly to be pitied, who, taxing up
their daily news, expecting to be re-
called with something useful if not
entertaining, to find themselves con
fined TO the list of advertisements,
as being more agreeable than the
tale of The shortcomings of editors,
who are fossil remains of what has
been in journalism; you rather Than
anything likely to bring new life and
force into use for the benefit of the
world, that is: We are tired Of it,
and hope our newspapers will soon
be ready to enter upon more ele.
giant form.
The Palace Hotel is not yet open,
though dinner was given to some
ofthe sympathizers with the estab-
Iishinent, few evenings since. Ev-
erything is going to move with the
Bank of California. The hotel will
probably then open, that it is to be
"a magnificent failure, is the belief of
the moderate people of San Fran
cisco, who would not set the world
on fire if it depended on them to do
1t with reckless regard to conse-
.quences. The Invisible Satanic Maj
.esty, supposed to be seated on the
top OF Mt. Diablo, is probably very
much amused at the present state of
Hhin&s and laughs at the Palace Ho-
tel as very good joke, not easily to
DE gotten rid OF when one sets them
selves seriously at work to do it.
Mr.. Stanford's cottage, with its mil.
itary rampant, being of the same
character, he probably smiles at that
as well while he tempts the poorly
paid clerks in the railroad office to
gamble little in stocks, and to exc
out the miserable pittance, which
they often earn by midnight toll
and Sunday vigilance. It's glo. /
rious thing to head a monopoly, and
have power sufficient to crush out |
what we like, but if this poor mis-
