The--Bank: of California.

SEVEN MILLIONS SUBSCRIBED TO THE
GUARANTEE FUND-REUMPTION En-
PECTED ABOUT THE FIRST OF OCTOBER
For day or two there have been some
expressions Of anxiety as to the progress
Of the Bank Syndicate, occasioned to a
considerable extent by previous reports
that the Bank Of California would reopen
about the 18th inst, while as yet no signs
Of immediate resumption are evident. A
rumor has also prevailed that Michael
Reese had retracted his subscription to the
Syndicate guarantee and that matters were
not in as prosperous condition as reported
a week or two ago. In an interview with
director of the bank this morning, it was
stated by him that no ground existed for
any such feeling of distIust; that so far as
the withdrawal of Mr.. Reese was concerned
he had not yet become subscriber, and
the affairs Of the Syndicate were going on
independently of him; that at present the
guarantee fund subscribed amounts to a
little 81, ,0O0, 900; that as to the time of the
reopening Of the bank nothing definite
can be now stated, but that it will probably
occur about the 1st prox; that at present
matters were progressing prosperously but
slowly. Lucky" Baldwin, who was
Yesterday elected director in the place of
Mr.. Ralston, comes on as subscriber to
the guarantee fund to large anount.

UNPARALLELED Brutality.

James lie Vance, a negro, was brought
up from Hammond, on last Sunday, by
Deputy Sheriff Willis, and lodged in jail
charged with the murder of his own child,
a little girl only 7 years of age. 1t is said
he took board about three or four inches
wide and an inch thick, and beat the child
until it was almost dead. He then tied
its hands behind it, tied rope around its
ankles, and, taking it to well, reversed
it and let it down the well head foremost,
and dipped it up and down until his mur-
derous propensities were fully satisfied.
He then took it out, laid it On the ground,
and, like an unfeeling brute gazed on it in
its last gasping agonies of death. There
were two or three negro women present,
and among them the mother Of the child,
and, we are told, not one of them raised a
voice against it. The cause Of this brutal
treatment of the child was, the father had
purchased ten cents worth of crackers and
sent them home by the child to the mother,
who pretended to be sick. When the
father returned, the mother complained of
not having had anything to eat, and de-
clared that the child did not give them to
her. The child insisted to the last that it
did, and subsequent inquiry has proven
the truth of the chid's statement and the
falsity of the mothers statement.-Amite,

Dress at Saratoga.

A Saratoga letter says: At breakfast the
ladies wear toilettes that in Hartford would
be considered elegant for evening recep-
tions-rose-colored silks, blue silks with
costly lace over-dresses, blue and pink
boots, and bewildering variety of cos
tunes, in such numbers that it makes our
heads swim and confuses what is left of our
tired brains. We are reminded of the fop
in the Big Bonanza who had not arrayed
himself in his "three o'clock clothes" We
wcnder what their three o'clock clothes can
be, when the nine o'clock dresses are so
fine.
And so many fat women! We begin to
think there is an exhibition of them on
hand-something after the fashion of baby
show or the Fat Mems clambake at Nor
walk, There are fat women to the left Of
us, fat women on the right of us, fat wo-
men 10 the front of us, and fat women to
the back Of us, until they must reach the
"six hundred" of Tennyson's Light Brig
ade at Balaclava. The more flesh they
carry about, the more they adorn it, and
the fat women bear off the palm in con-
spicuous dressing.
Great diamonds nestle in folds of fat,
and rest on punches of flesh like the vel
vety cushions that jewellers display in their
showcases; and the way they plaster on
the paint is "a caution" Years ago the
joy Of my heart was an old rubber doll,
that named Distressing" on account of
its scanned and cracked face that was in
the habit of filling up with putty. These
painted women strikingly resemble. old
paintedup "Distressing;" some of them
being unable to smile or wink for fear of
cracking their faces.
Wehave not seen one natural, genuine
appearing woman in all This overdressed
crowd. 1t is impossible to be natural tod
ding around in those tied back dresses
enameled faces and blackened eyelids
What hideous deformity that eye paint
ing produces, How can any one resort to
such practice?) These women are big
caricatures and satires on womankind. We
are speaking now, not of the general
crowd, but Of certain set who come here
simply to display themselves, for there are
many lovely ladies who spend season
here, women of the real genuine kind that
1t is pleasure to meet.

: Editor Of Hauld.-The time for the

Department Of this city is drawing near.
Are We to have Democrat, Independent
or Republican? 1t is almost folly to ask
such question, did not the rumors pre-
vailing throughout the city make it both
right and proper. The writer Of this arti-
Gle has not one word to say against the pre-
sent incumbent NJ. Jos. Hyde; as far as we
know he is good officer, and a perfect
gentleman, and one who gained the conf
dence ef the entire community, not ex-
cepting even those who prosecuted him.
He is all that could be asked-but vet We
have tried and true Democrats that are his
equals in every respect. And just here
let us 60 back one year, the three Inde-
pendent Republicans who controlled, by
the aid Of the Democrats, the last City
Council, would not permit US even to elect
an engineer to work the English Bull and
in fact did not even grant us one Commit
tee, and Mr.. Hyde was elected not because
he was fit man, but because he was also
a Republican. No one can say truthiully
that Mr.. Hyde used his position for the
advantage or disadvantage of either party
intentionally, but look at the strong efforts
made by his party to induce him so to do,
He refused in local fight. but next year
is the Presidential campaign and we
know not what influences may be brought
to bear, and to say the least it is well for
the Democratic party to take every homo
rable advantage.
We will not undertake to assume the
responsibility of naming any one as can
didate, but as we started with madam
rumor," we give one she has also put for
ward Mr.. Harry Wickersham. He no
doubt would make a good officer, as no
one in the city better understands the du-
ties imposed. M

THE terrible accident in New York
on Tresday, resulting from the breaking Of
the ida patent Hrial ladder furnishes an
instance Of the necessity of examining
carefully and finding out the merits of all
new inventions before they are put into
practical Use. This patent was thrust Rpon
the fire department of New York by cor
rupt means at an enormous expense, and
was the work, beyond doubt, Of combina-
tion, who paid the public officials literally
for accepting patent that has cost the
lives Of three men, Ard this is not the
only instance Of the peoples being robbed
and cheated by corrupt officials foisting
upon them worthless patents that they a! G
paid TO adopt. This should be warning
10 the rings that have the municipal con.
troll Of many Of our cities. Yesterday the
Fire Commissioners of Now York held q
meeting, and condemned the latter. Very
much like the old story of locking the
,. able door after the horse ia gone.
