SECURING ITS INDEPENDENCE,

The great hsrvestn fields are In the southern part
Of the country, in Table mountain and the East
range, where the pine forests have been undis-
turbed BY the palefsces, being too remote from
the quartz mills and the railroad to make the
wood available for fuel. Once in two years the
nat crop is abundant, and in early days It was
the main reliance Of the Indians for winter SUP.
plies. The work Of gathering them is quite tedi-
Gus; but the patient squaws put in full time dur
ing the harvest, and accumulate many sacks full.
The cone or burr which contains the nuts is pulled
from the tree and roasted, the oil or turpentine
in the cones being sufficient to partially burn
them. This opens the layers underneath which
the nuts lie concealed, and from which the nuts
are shaken after the roasting process is completed
white man could not gather sackful in q
month by working ten hours 10 day; but the
Indians are skilled In the art, and Industrious
sQuaw can gather several hundred pounds In o
few weeks. A few years ago nuts were readily
exchanged by the Indians for their bulk In -four,
but recently the price has been raised in conse-
Quence OF the demand created by the whites for

merchantable commodity in the market, as the
improvident red man dispose of them the moment
he finds q cash purchaser, and the whites prefer
them to many OF the imported nuts in the stores.

false representations OF property after business
hours, Il Is ordered that no bail be taken 10 the

latue or under the ordinances OF the late corpor-
Court, coIiaterais may be taken equal in smOunt

other particulars as may be deemed necessary, to
guard against perjury, and to secure conviction
thereof.
Attention to the suficiency o: bail and the
technical character OF the bond in all cases Of ap
pesls in the current business Of the court is part
Of the special duties Of the prosecuting officers,
much as the preparation Of the information, and
they must be expected to carefully watch such
cases, until the appeal Is completed, without
special notice from the clerk to attend to the
same, but in other cases, especially in felonies,
the clerk is directed TO duly notify tho proper
attorney that be may be present to examine and
approve the suficieDcy OF the bail or object to the
game
No release Of prisoner on bail is to be issued
in any case without the clerk has the proper evil
dence that the bail bond has been approved by the
court, according to the provisions Of the statute
relating to this subject.
1t is directed that this order be read In open
court, and entered upon the order-book Of the
court, and q copy thereof transmitted to Major

A Specia BASIS.

The following is an extract from letter dated
San Francisco, Cal, September q, 1876:
"Our crisis seems TO be over here. The Bank
Of California will live ana all the banks will sur
viye the shock. The whole affair is a good solid
argument In favor of q specie basis. Some two
or three years since some California papers tried
to get up public opinion in favor of introducing
Rre6nbacks or national bank notes as our domes-
tic currency, but most fortunately the attempt
failed. Had the attempt succeeded, could we
have weathered the late financial earthquake as
quickly and as safely as We have? Not a single
man in this State would answer yes Some OF
your Wise men in the East seem to be insane on
finance" V.R.
