Among the various duties Of the Auditor

him and other State officials. and especially
as his chief deputy confessed ignorance Of
them when on the stand as witness:
Sec. lSl. Whenever the Auditor may
think it necessary for the proper settlement
of any account, he may examine the parties
and others on oath or affirmation touching
any fact material to be known in the settle
ment of such account, and for that purpose
may issue subpenas or commissions, or
compel witnesses to attend before him, and
give evidence in such manner and by such
means as are allowed by courts of law"
SEC. 1874. He shall have full access to the
books of the Treasurer, and to all Offices of
the State for the inspection Of all books, &C.
counts and papers which may concern the
duties of his Office.
SEC. 1856. The Auditor shall number, pro.
gressively, all warrants drawn by him dur
ing each year, commencing with the first OF
January and ending on the thirty first of
December, on the treasury for the payment
Of money, and enter them in q book to be
kept for that purpose, in such manner as TO
show the number, date and amount of each
warrant, the name of the person in whose
favor and for what purpose drawn.

Tue .Jetties.

The Washington correspondent Of the
Chicago Times forwards the following
pleasing infoI nation:
Captain Eads, who has in charge the con
Mississippi, was in Washington recently.
and reports that he has now 400 men en-
plUyed on the work, which has been per-
fected over 5000 feet toward deep water.
The present depth of water is eight feet,
and the work is progressing at the rate of
nearly 800 feet day. The working force
will soon be increased, and Captain Eads
expects in year to have channel deep
enough for the largest vessel.
We hope, a year hence, to turn back to
the files and read this paragraph with re-
newed sensations of pleasure.

Board of Health,

The regular weekly meeting OF the Board
OF Health occurred last evening.
Present-Dr. White, president: DR.. LIE
Monnier. and Messrs. Heath and Wood
ward.
number Of nuisances were ordered
abated, and several unimportant communi.
cations were read.
At Pascagoula disinfectants are to be
used. There is no yellow fever at that
place. but. in the vicinity Of Pensacola,
at Barrancas. cases are reported. There
is no yellow fever nearer than this. DR..
Martin reports three deaths up to July Is.
Six cases were reported later. and there
are now twenty-nine cases.
Captain Woodward reported Administra-
tor Burke had stopped the dumping at
Thalia street. and DR.. Newman the same of
that at the French Market.
DR.. J. T. Newman, sanitary inspector Of
the Second District, submitted special re-
port of the French Market. He says it was
never in as filthy condition as at pres
ent, and has not been washed for two
months. That portion for the sale Of fish is
extremely uoisome and filthy. roof leaky.
and water supply needed. The shrimp
depots are an intolerable nuisance. No
poison is more deleterious than fish poison.
and floating boats are recommended as a
remedy. The great number of carts aid in
the accumulation Of filth. and delay travel
and traffic. OF the private markets he
speaks as being clean, we'll washed. and al
advantage to the poor.
DR.. Pete writes an interesting letter on
the subject Of disin fectants in Galveston.
Vessels from there to Havana carry disin-
fectants at their own expense. In an ag-
gregate Of forty-seven trips not case of
yellow fever has occurred. Vessels arriv-
ing are disinfected. The powder composed
of oxide Of manganese and chloride of lime
with sulphuric acid is used. Smallpox ex-
listed in the two preceding winters. Disin-
fectants are used and care taken to prevent
dissemination.
DR.. White stated there should be yuaran-
tine established at Rigolets, to be removed
at the pleasure Of the board. An officer
now daily examines all vessels that come
in at each basin. Dr.. Allen was the quarsn-
tine physician. The only points Of danger
were Key West and Pensacola.
Quarantine was ordered, and on sugges-
tion of Dr. LeMonnier and Captain Wood
ward. no fees were to be exacted.
The board then rendered it's thanks to
Administrator Burke for his prompt action
and then adjourned.

The Eucalyptus In California.

The Los Angeles Herald, of the twenty.
third ultimo, has this very interesting &C
count Of an experiment on a large scale in
planting forest trees in that country:
One of the most successful new enter
the Forest Grove Company. The company
was organized last December for the pur-
pose of planting 200 acres with eucalyptus
or blue gum trees. Some 10000 trees have
been set out and are making a wonderfully
rapid growth. The seed was planted in
small boxes and the plants grown until
about three inches high. They are
then transplanted into boxes twenty
by twenty four inches, in rows two feet
to eight inches high, at which time they are
ready to be transplanted into the field.
The ground is we'll broken up and put in
good condition. The trees are set eight
feet apart in the rows. In setting out the
trees in the field ''transplanter' is used
This transplanter was invented especially
for this business by the managing agent Of
the company, and is one of the most sue
cessful instruments ever used for trans.
planting trees. 1t consists of an inside and
outside cylinder. On the outside cylinder
is handle for pressing the outside cylin-
der down into the ground, cutting out
plug of earth. The inside cylinder has .
rim shoulder on the lower end, by which
the plug of dirt is pressed out. After cut
ting . hole in the ground where the tree is
to be set, the transplanter il set over one Of
the plants in the box, and q plug Of earth
containing the roots Of the small tree is cut
out and set down in the hole first cut to re-
ceive 1t. About pint Of water is then
poured around each plant, and it requires
no more water. Some 10000 trees, set out
in this way when about ten inches, are
now, with less than two months growth.
nearly two feet high, and are max
ing q vigorous growth. At the present
rate the trees will be four to ten feet high
by next December. The company have
some 80, 900 plants on hand, with which the
rems aiming part of the land will be set out.
The goPhers and the squirrels have been
exterminated with poison. One man, in
about one weeks time, poisoning gophers
from A. NJ. to 9 P. NJ, and 4 P. NJ. to <
P. M. each day. has killed nearly every
gopher on some sixty acres of land, the land
being completely infested when the poison
ing commenced. Planting blue gum forests
ia destined to be one of the most profitable
industries ever inaugurated on this coast.
The timber here is rapidly disappearing.
and inside of twenty or thirty years will be
very scarce indeed. These forests raised in
this country will be of fabulous value, and
can never be PLANTED in sufficient quantities
to glut the market. As the country here
and back into Arizona settles up, the con-
sumption of timber will be increased and
the supply constantly diminished. In four
years these trees in this county attain a
height of forty feet, and diameter at the
butt of twelve to fourteen inches. Some in
this city have made q growth in sixteen
months of twenty-five feet by twenty inches
in circumference, from plants foot high
and stalks as long as common lead pencil.

a manly apology. and placing Of the facts

in the paragraph above quoted. The con.

ence between ''tc-night' and ''this eve
