California Tobacco.

&c. w." of Orange, writes to La
Cronica an account of his efforts and
failure at tobacco raising in this coun-
ty. He did not fail in growing the
tobacco, but he says he failed to grow
an article which any one would pur-
chase, and that after repeated efforts
to sell his crop to the tobacconists of
San Francisco he was reluctantly
forced to the conclusion that neither
he nor any one else could grow good
tobacco in California. Just here is
where we are inclined to think &c.
W." has made mistake. He asserts
that his tobacco looked well, but that
.itwas deceptive-not as good as it ap-
peared. He admits that among all
the San Francisco cigar-makers only
Cinnamon would buy it, and they at
figures far below the cost of produc-
tion. But the points which our Or
ange tobacco grower seeks to make is
that his tobacco was equal in quality
to that grown anywhere and by any
one in California, and that none of it
is any account. This statement he
make on the authority of those San

Don't Give Up, But Try.

A gentleman travelling in the North
ern part of Ireland heard the voices of
children and stopped to listen.
Finding the sound came from a
small building used as school house,
he drew near; as the door was open
he went in and listened to the words
the boys were spelling.
One little fellow stood apart, looking
very sad.
"Why does this boy stand here p"
asked the gentleman.
ooh, he is good for nothing" said
the teacher. ''TTere's nothing in him.
He is the most stupid boy in the
school,"
SThe gentleman was surprised at this
answer. He saw that the teacher was
so stern and rough that the younger
and more timid were nearly crushed.
After few words to them, placing
his hands on the noble brow of the
little fellow who stood apart, he said:
zone of these days you may be a
fine scholar. Don't give up; try, my
boy, try"
The boys soul was aroused. His
sleeping mind awoke. A new purpose
was formed. From that hour he be-
came anxious to excel; and he did be-
come fine scholar and the author of
a well known commentary on the
Bible, a great and good man, beloved
and honored. 1t was DR.. Adam
Clarke.
The secret of his success Is worth
knowing: "Don't give up; but try,
my boy, try"

A Sound Sentiment.
Record.

On Monday last ANDY JOHNSON
made great speech in the Senate in
favor Of the restoration of the Consti-
tuition of our fathers, closing with the
assurance to all that unless it was re-
stored the country was gone-gone
forever. He charged the Administra-
tion with deliberate violation of the
Constitution and the laws, and pro-
duced messages and documents to
prove that the present condition of the
South was due solely to the acts of
those who desired to maintain them
selves in power. He made strong
point against the President and his
advisers by showing that SHERIDAN,
who had once been repudiated by the
people of Louisiana and with whose
withdrawal and the substitution of
HANCOCK came peace and quietude,
had been sent back to those people
with the power of an Emperor. How
ever strong may be the argument
against many of the positions taken
by the Senator from Tennessee, we
believe he is correct as to the true au-
thors of the disturbances in the South,
and the evidence is rapidly forthcom-
ing that the great mass of the people
are becoming convinced that the po-
litical aspiration of those in power is
the leaven which has worked the fo-
mentations in Louisiana and Arkan-
sas. One thing is evident: the coun-
try is growing weary and distrustful
of the Administrations policy toward
the South. The masses are beginning
to doubt the honesty of this Southern
policy. After six years trial it has
accomplished nothing toward restor-
ing peace and harmony. Is it mat
ter of wonder that the people should
begin to distrust a policy which could
only show six years failure as the
result of six years practice? 1t would
seem that if stilling of the troubled
waters was the only purpose of the
it would be only too
ready to adopt some other plan in lieu
of one which had increased rather than
quieted the disturbance. But it re-
fuses all offer of other means and de-
clines to accept the services of other
4 4
sown the seed of distrust and doubt as
to the integrity of his purpose, the
fruit of which is fear on the part of
the nation that his Southern policy is
enforced more for the purpose of MAIN
tanning himself and supporters in pow
er than the restoration of that peace,
harmony and prosperity which the
whole people so earnestly desire.

How to Treat Bad Boys.

Many years ago, in country town
in Massachusetts,, a teacher saw boy
come into his school whom he knew
to be one of the worst boys in town.
He determined, if he could, to make a
good boy of him, and he behaved we'll
that day. The next morning the Pru-
Dental Committee (as he was called)
came in and said "Mr. Towne, I
hear that bad fellow, Bill Marcy, has
come to your school. Turn him out
at once. He will spoil the rest of the
boys" "No, sir" replied the teacher,
III will leave the school if you say so,
but l cannot expel boy so long as he
behaves well.n So he kept him and
encouraged him, confided in him, till
Bill Marcy became one of the best
boys in school. And afterwards, when
ever William L. Marcy came from
Washington, he took pains to go and
see his old teacher, Salem Towne, and
thank him for having been the means
of saving him and making him the
man he was.

AN up-country paper says the union
of the Sacramento Union and Record
is a strange marriage, and that the
two papers lay with their backs
to each other, each contemplating the
best way to kick the other out of bed.
The fight and fusion of these two pa
pers reminds US of a story. Two
friends, both little elevated, went to
bed in a room containing two beds;
but, in the dark, both got into the
same bed. In little while one said
to the other that there was some one
in his bed, and received for an answer
that so there was in.his. "Let's kick
'em out" "Agreedv' Pretty soon one
said, "Fve kicked my fellow out"
"That's good" was the response; "but
my fellows kicked me out" Some
thing of this sort is the end OF the
kicking match between the Onion and
Record.

Francisco tobacco houses, ten in num-
Der, whom he visited for the purpose
of disposing of his crop. We are in
clined to the opinion that there is
some truth in what these firms told
him, though to say that no good to-
bacco has or can be grown in this
State is to make an assertion which
will hardly be borne out by ihe facts.
We omit great deal that might be
said on the subject of seed and come
to the important point that almost all
the tobacco that has yet been produced
in this State has been grown by ex-
perimentalists who have had no ex-
perience in business which can only
be successfully conducted by men of
experience. The San Francisco houses
are prejudiced against California to-
bacco, but it is a prejudice of profit,
not of quality. The charge that all
California grown tobacco Is bitter is
not true. 1t is doubtless true of the
amateur product, grown from doubt
full seed upon chance-selected soil.
One can hardly find Gilroy tobacco in
the shops of San Francisco and the
retail dealers give as reason that it
is so dear no one will buy it. 1t would
be nearer the truth if they would say,
we do not keep Gilroy tobacco because
it is pure tobacco and we cannot make
the profit on it we can from the refuse
and sweepings of the large tobacco
houses of Virginia, which come out
here nicely packed up and perfumed.
Four-fifths of the tobacco smokers of
California have become so accust0m-
ed to the use of those sweepings, that
they do not know good tobacco from
bad. They buy by the quantity,
rather than quality. The Gilroy
Company make no secret why they
send their tobacco East; it is because
they get better price than here. We
have no doubt but that the greater
portion of the Gilroy tobacco comes
back here and is sold and smoked as
imported cigars. There has been good
tobacco grown in Los Angeles valley.
Mr.. PERKINS, an old tobacconist, has
grown an excellent article at Azusa,
and good judges who tested the SAM
pies he exhibited in this city at the
last fair, did not pronounce it bitter
nor worthless. 1t is not everybody
who can grow good tobacco, nor will
all soil produce it; but it is the opin-
ion, not Of the newspapers, but Of
gentlemen whose experience entities
them to credence, that good tobacco
can and will be grown in Los Angeles
valley and many other portions of
California. We hope &C. W." will
try again, and with better success.

Light on the Overend Murder.

SAN DIEGO, March 24th.-It is now
believed that the mystery of the
Overend murder is about to be solved
upon the confession of Jose Acama,
one of the condemned murderers re-
spited by Governor Pacheco. An In
dian named Negro Montago, has been
arrested and lodged in Jail as the per-
petrator of that horrible crime. The
authorities believe they have suffi-
cient evidence to convict him. He is
one of the most impulsive and brutal
looking specimens of humanity con-
ceivable. Should he prove the right
man it may clear up the mysterious
crimes that have been committed in
this county for the past six or seven
years.

THE Mexican Legation at Wash
ington has received information
which goes to show that the Govern
ment was not responsible for the mas
sacre of Protestants at Acapulco. The
military commandant hastened to the
scene to prevent disturbance and
was among the killed. The Mexican
authorities claim that the murder was
the work of fanatics and assert that
the United States war vessel ordered
to that port can do nothing more than
has already been done.
