TaR demand Of he-ta1.pay ers of
'Vicksburg that the negro Sheriff. Cros-
BY, should resign, was based on the fact
that he had failed to give a valid bond
as required by law. In Mississippi. the
Sherifs are entrusted with the collection
Of taxes, and in Warren county, in which
Vicksburg is situated, the people had
been robbed so numerically by thiovipg
officials that they determined that Cros.
by should either comply with the law by
giving security for an honest disburse-
ment OF the money or else resign. In
Wick sburg, while three.fourths of the
population are negroes, forty.nine Afti.
eths Of the property is owned by the
whites. As result Of the stealing and
extravagance Of the negro rulers Of that
city, q debt Of nearly d million dollars
has been incurred, and taxation has now
reached point which is insupportable.
1t was the forced resignation of Crosby
which led to the attempted invasion Of
the city by country negroes which re-
suited SO disastrously to the invaders.
The practice of giving worthless bonds
has been reduced to q system by the
Grant oficehoders in Mississippi. Tho
Chairman Of the Taxpayers League OF
Washington county recently had occa-
sion to examine q new bond for $50, 600.
given by the Sheriff of that county, and
found that it was signed by five sureties
who, as an investigation proved, were
also liable on the bonds OF other officials
for sums ranging from $222, 900 to $685., ,OOU
each, making an aggregate Of liabilities
of S3,199,O00. Negro officials who are
wholly irresponsible make practice of
signing each others bonds for fabulous
amounts, and thus the unfortunate prop
erty holders are deprived of any securi-
ty for the lawful use of the enormous
sums wrung from them by oppressive
taxation. And Gov. Ames continues the
earnest friend and protector of all the
knaves who thus deliberately lay plans
to evade the requirements Of the laws.

Dangerous Surgical Operation
~ .- on a Child. =

A female child born to tile wife OF
James Cruze, residing on G street,
near Thirteenth, while otherwise
healthy and well formed, was disfigured
by large protuberance upon the
lower part of the back, some four in
ches in diameter, and extending out
ward about as far, The parents and
midwife in attendance, not liking the
appearance of the new conner, conclu-
ded to have medical and surgical ad-
vice, and called in physician. Ex-
animation proved the protuberance to
be large, feshy tumor, drawing its
sustenance from integuments passing
through an unnatural opening in the
sacrum. Some fifteen hours after
birth a slight discoloration was no.
ticed, and the surgeon, fearing morti-
fication, concluded to operate with the
knife, and accordingly extirpated 1t,
cutting away until the part presented
its normal appearance. Several blood
vessels were met with in the operation,
which had to be taken up and tied.
The wound, then upward OF four inches
in length, was drawn together with
stitches md finally dressed with plas-
ter, and, last evening, some three days
afterwerd, was healing nicely, and the
child was feeding well, and, apparently,
little the worse for the operation. AL
things considered, this Is q somewhat
extraordinary case, as there was neces,
sarily considerable loss Of blood, and
the nervous shock of such an operation
to child but few days old, must
have been vere.--Saeramento Rseord,

MATTERS COMPLICATED BY THE NEW

VICKsBURa, Miss, January 2,--Yes.
terday the Board of Supervisors issued
an order to Sheriff Crosby to appear on
Monday and show cause why his bond
should not be declared insufficient.
Supervisor Lehman also yesterday
accepted Mr.. Flannagan's bond and
issued certificate of his election as
Sheriff of Warren County at the cleo
tion held last Thursday. Although
the Legislature at the session lately
called repealed the act ordering
special election in such cases, the lat
ter last night demanded the keys of
the office, which Crosby, refused to de-
liver, and Flanagan took possession
of room in the Court House and op-
ened an Office as Sheriff this morning.
The Legislative Investigating Commit
tee will adjourn from here this after.
noon to Jackson, where the Legisla-
ture reassembles on Monday. The &C.
tion of Flanagan in assuming. the Of

A SARATOGA t'AILURE.--Afler a
prolonged struggle to maintain its
sinking fortunes, the propristors Of
the mammoth Omitted States Hotel

low the establishment to go into bank
ruptcy. At the meeting of creditors
the cost of hotel and furniture was set

A SAN Joaquin valley paper says
the effects of the no-fence law may be
seen all over the valley where the law
is in force. There is no doubt about
this. II a man may cultivate land
without being compelled to fence it
the expense of agriculture is greatly
reduced. 1t costs more to build fences
than to build cities. The fence ex-
penses of farm are more than double
the cost Of barn, dwelling and other
necessary structures. In those agri-
cultural districts of our State where
fencing material is scarce and dear a
no-fence law will do more towards the
population of the country than all the
immigrant aid societies that can be
formed. We hope the Legislature SO
soon to assemble will give this no.
fence subject its careful consideration.

The Centre Of the Earthquake.

The center the earthquake disturb
ance, last Monday, appears to have
been i'm Arizona; and the waves were
from East to West, diminishing in
force as they came along. While the
oscillations here were not at all Sc
we're, they were quite otherwise in the
neighbOring Territory, along the stage
route. AT Gardeners Wells, 159miles
from San Diego, part of the station
building was thrown down. At New
River, l3S miles from San Diego, a
part of the station building was thrown
down. At Indian Wells, 100 miles
from San Diego, the adobe stable and
the adobe corrall were both thrown
down. The first shock was at 2:30 p.
NJ. on Monday, and this was the
heaviest. But there were other shocks
nearly every hour until nine O'clock
the next morning when the letter
was written from which we gather the
above particulars. San Diego Union

In a False Light.

The State Grange at its last session
passed a series of resolutions which
implicitly favor National aid to the
Texas and Pacific Railroad. The only
indication that the object OF the
Grange was to favor Tom SCOTT is
found in the word competition"
which frequently occurs in the resolu-
tions, and the only allusiOn to Ma
tional subsidy is contained in the clos
ing resolution, which instructs tour
Representative to use his hest en-
deavors to have such favorable action
taken by the National Grange as
shall assist in securing to Patrons the
advantages of competition" This
series of resolutions is published in
Mr.. SCOTT's organs, accompanied by
editorials in which the idea is stsought
to be conveyed that the Grangers-the
owners and tillers of the soil of Cali
fornia- are in Iavor of loaning the
Government credit to Mr.. SCoTT'S
railroad at the rate of more than twice
the amount necessary to build it. We
do not believe the farmers of California
can be induced to favorthe proposition.
1t is not probable that the State Grange
anticipated that their resolutions
would be so interpreted. But if this
is their true meaning We are satisfied
that it is not an expression of the SEN
timents of the Granger masses of the
State. We all know that if a vote on
California's portion of this credit loan
were taken it would be rejected by a
vote of ten to one. The people are not
in favor of either directly or indirectly
voting subsidy to railroads, and none
are more fully aware of this than they
who are trying to twist these Grange
resolutions into an expression in favor
of subsidy. AS for the competition
clause, we all know that talk on this
subject amounts to nothing-words,
mere words. A glance at the history
of railroads in the East will convince
the most skeptical that the companies
owning those thoroughfares do not
compete to an extent which greatly
benefits the public. The government
may loan its credit at the rate of S40,-
600 per mile to Mr.. SCoTT's road, and
three months after it is completed the
fare will be just the same on the Cen
trail Pacific and the Texas Paci fic roads.
We want a Southern overland road
built by whoever will build it, but if
the people must pay for this road let
the people, and not Mr.. Tom SCOTT,
own il.

SEVERAL parties have complained
to us of the unreliability of certain
real estate agents with whom they
have come i'm contact i'm this city. We
presume there is some grounds for
these complaints. The business of
real estate dealing isliveIy in this val
ley and many persons have found the
agency for the sale of other mems
property quite profitable. 1t is not at
all remarkable that adventurers-men
without means and not over scrupu-
lous as to the character of their state
ments-should invest their capital,
cheek and impudence, in line of
business which may pay well but if it
should not will cost them nothing.
They run their face for advertising
and job work for which they never
pay and then harrass new comers to
purchase land they do not own and in
some cases were never authorized to
sell. Still we believe the greater por-
tion of our real estate agents are hon.
orable and trustworthy gentlemen
who will not Intentionally deceive
their customers.

The HOMICIDE CASE.
The Matter to he Further Investiga-
ted-A Post MOrtem HeId-YOunG
Webb again Detained by the Sher-
From the San Diego Union, 10TH

From the San Diego Union, l9th.l
AS intimated yesterday, the matter
of the late homicide at the Sweetwater
is not yet ended, and it is likely the
case of young Webb will go before the
Grand Jury for investigation. Wheth-
er the facts in the case Will warrant
such investigation we are unable to
say, having heard, perhaps, only one
side of the case. 1t is claimed. how
ever, that there are in this, as in all
other matters, two sides to the story.
If the homicide was not justifiable-if
upon further investigation it shall be
found that the shooting of Bellies by
Webb, under the. circumstances and
in the manner in which 1t was done,
was not warrantable, but constitutes n
crime punishable by law,we certainly
hope the guilty may be properly pun
ished, for human life is indeed too sa-
cred to be trifiel with. But unless
some new facts in the case mot yet
made known) are brought out, We be-
lieve further investigation Will re-
suit in vindication of the verdict
rendered by the Coroner's Jury.
The remains of the. unfortunate
Bellies were brought here for inter-
ment in the city cemetery, and We're
buried Wednesday afternoon. Pre-
vious to the burial post-mortem was
held by Drs. Gregg and Stockton lit
being deemed advisable in view of a
probable further investigation, for the
purpose of determining the characte er
of the wounds, and also the relative
positions and probable distance of the
parties from each other at the time of
the shooting. Many rumors and the
cries are afloat in regard To this unfor-
tunate affair-some of which we have
reason to believe are based upon malice
only. That the truth will be sifted
out and justice rendered by the inves-
tigation we have no doubt.
Yesterday young Webb was intend
ing to have gone up the coast on the
Ancon, but it was deemed advisable by
the Sheriff to detain him, which was
done, though no warrant has yet been
drawn or served for his arrest to an
swer any charges in connection with
the homicide. ts.st,-....

A sharp shock of earthquake was
felt here on Monday afternoon last,
about half past two, shaking things
up considerably but doing no damage.
The oscillation seemed to be from east
to west.
Mr.. f. l.. Barnett brought into our
office this week thirteen pounds of
sweet potatoes, the product of one
vine from one hill. They were raised
by.Mr. Barnett on his place near Los
Nietos College.
There were fears that the tobacco
here thathad been cut and not yet
gathered might be injured by the rain
But all such fears have proved ground
less. The tobacco will be rendered a
little more brittle, but no damage will
be sustained.
The exports from our depot during
the present week have been as follows:
Corn, 2,347 sacks, weighing 2Sl, 1858
pounds; meal 1856 sacks weighing u
600 pounds; castor beans. 81 sacks
weighing 2,297 pounds; spuds, SO sacks
weighing 1858 pounds; onions, 55
sacks weighing 5,040 pounds; 10 pack
ages merchandise, weighing 4S5
pounds. Total, 3O2, 533 pounds.
Mr.. Samuel Adams, who resides
within short distance of this town,
has raised this season and shipped 25
tons of onions, all the product of n sim
gle acre of ground. He realized $l,26
per hundred pounds,o S625 for that
acre of onions. What better evidence
could there be of the bountiful produc.
tiveness of our soil, and of the profits
to be derived from a judicious system
of diversified farming! Is it not time
that the farmers should learn wisdom
by their own and the experience of
Others.
