THE SITUATION IN SAN FRANCISCO.
A Variety of RumOrs About the Bank
Of l'RlilNHnia

SAN FRANCISCO, August 31.-Nothing au-
thentic has been learned concerning the re-
sumption Of the Bank of California in addi-
tion TO the last dispatch on that subject.
During the latter part of this afternoon and
evening many reports have been heard about
town to the effect that the bank will start In
few days; that seven or eight millions have
been subscribed for the purpose and that the
whole matter has been decided. All such
statements must be received with due eau
ton as tending TO induce feeling of GER
tainty which facts do not warrant as vet
Such assertions are only traced to street
talk. That they have been to a great extent
received as correct and have produced an
additional feeling of confidence, is undenia-
bic, but they should not be accepted as au-
thoritatfve. Flood * O'Brien have employed
an extra force on the Nevada Bank bulliin
and are hurryiDg ii to completion. A rumoT
has obtained credence that an analysts of the
stomach OF RalstOn has showed evidences of
poison. The coroner this evening states en-
phalcally that no hint TO that effect has
been given, and that the assumption is en-
tiIely gratuitous.

Letter from craeklin District.
Uxrry, Nh, April 81, 1875.

| UNITY, MD, Aprll II, 1879.
| DEAR SENTINEL - Although the vernal
equinox has passed and gone some weeks, the
meteorological record rs kept by the signal
storm King indicates January temperature.
Last year we had late Spring, with genu-
inc snow storm as late as April 29!h, which
also marked the birthday OF one Of our most
genial gentlemen, Who with n remark at once,
characteristic and causic, Impressed his
friends with the laieness Of the season now as
compared with those Of former years. Said
he !" ] was nnder the impression for many
years that | was born late in the Spring, vefg-
ing upon Summer. but now find that was
born in mid-winier." Change, however, is
hui counterpart of winter.
Death has held high carnival in this COM
mun,y within the past few months. Here is
tho death roll, as | have seen no publication
of their demise in your columns Walter
Magrnder, Nelson Sullivan, Joseph K. Coomes,
Asenith Films, James and Rachael Dwyer all
useful and commendable citizens, whose loss
will be deplored by many friends.
Our farmers are very busy with the first
glimmering Of the roseate light 'jocnnd he
drives his team afeld'' and contemplating the
depression Of agricultural interests and his de-
pleied finances repeats to himself, "who by
the plow would thrive must either hold him
self or drive" Take courage, oh P. Of H.,
the Changers will relieve your embarrassment
aud make green your waste places.
Our people are not slow in politics,
and are already discussing the situation.
The universal sentiment appears TO be
in favor of our worthy ex-senator from
Washington county for Governor, while
the knowing ones affirm that the representa-
tive slate has already been made mp, which
sounds strange 10 our unsophisticated ears as
we imagined the sovereign people in conven-
ton assembled usually discharged such
duties.
Have you observed anything in any of your
exchanges of the whereabouts of one gay and
sportive gentleman rejoicing in the sobrquet
Of Taylor, who cavourted around this COM
munty much to the deriment of over confd-
ing andladies and credulous and susceptible
gentlemen. We understand he leased a horse
on verv long time from Mr. Poss of your town
and, although pursued BY poss(e), have as
yet been unable to om-it-at-im The iden-
tity of the gentleman can be easily established,
as he had no hair on the summit of his crani-
UNI, the place where the capillary substance
usually vegetables. This fact and his subse-
quent transactions has induced the belief in
medical circles, that the extreme cold weather
Of the past winter produced ossification Of the
scions Of New England are prone TO these &c
centriciiies. The descendants OF Miles Stand
isb boast Of polished morals and hgh-toned
civilization, and too much OF this may have
affected the gentleman, as we well know that
Tilton, Beecher and Butler drank freely at this
fount. G.
