5CALIFORNIA EMIGRATION.
The Tide Turning Eastward.
From the, St. Joe Herald.

TheIlide FEM migration to California
this spring astonishcd every one, exi
cept those who went. 1t was who'll
lyuncqualled in the History of the
country, and us sunacconntabie as un-
eqaallcd. Whyth rush commenced
7is II mystery. How everybody ex,
pected to- live after they reached The
golden slope, aproblem ,hatSno one
has ever been able to solve. And
vet in1thc montl, of March $500 per-
sons passed Kearncy Junction bound
for San Francisco, and Of this number
over 1000 were persons who had
probably expended their last dollar TO
pay railroad fare.
Gentlemen who have just returned
from San Francisco inform us that tho
prospect of making a living there is
little less than in any other place
3 they have ever seen. Hundreds Of
able bodied men, who had spent their
last dollar for transportation. are beg
ging bread in the streets and sleeping
in barns and outhouscs. The picture
drawn, is distressing in the extreme,
and affords an excellent illustration
of.the old saying, /" All that glisters is
not gold"
we arc. informed, also, that mum;
bers who have tried the golden ex.
pertinent daily pass lvearney Junction
\ on their way east. Most Of them arc
ssdead b.oke,'' and are aiming to
"dead beat 2 their way home. They
say they have been bitterly deceived
aud if they can once reach the " old
stamping ground "again, they won,
be very easily induced TO leave it.

The MORAL EDUCATION SOCIETY last
night unanimously adopted resolutions SOL
EMMY protesting against that portion of the
annual report of the Board of Health which
has reference to licensing prostitution. II is
simply making vice lawful, legaLZlng
crime which 10 government has the moral
right TO do. It Is also degrading, and de-
stroying one-hslf the human race for the
qualification of the other; we dare not say
for the benefit OF the other, for that we do not
believe il to be. Also, that they present an
appeal to Congress opposing any act by
which this vice can be legalized, because of
the injustice of laws whose penalties fall en-
tirely upon women"
