Two Miners Killed.

VIRGINIA, December 3Oth.-A shift
of ten men were blown up by an ex-
plosion in the Sutro Tunnel, at four
o'clock this morning. Two of the
miners, whose names were John De-
laney and Samuel Richards, were
blown into atoms. A Mr.. Pillow was
thought to be mOrtally wounded, and
a number of others were badly in
jured. The accident happened at the
time of changing shifts, and a blast
was about to be exploded in the face
or header of the tunnel. The men re-
treated back about six hundred feet,
where the battery used in exploding
blasts was situated. Several boxes of
giant powder had been left near the
battery, and when the blast in the
header was touched off, it is thought
that the giant powder was exploded
by an electric spark.

BRONSON.-At Ell Monte, December 30, 1874
Francis Ann, wife of A. f. Bronson, aged IS
years, month and IL days.
Fannie, in life ever devoted and true, she'd
ding pure, holy light by thy presence
through the household and rejoicing the heart
OF husband, children and friends; in sickness
so patient and meek, in death so calm and
trustful in Christ Still yearning to remain
with loved ones and to cheer the household, IL
was not strange that thou shouldst say, Fa.
ther, let this bitter cup pass" But faith in
Christ triumphed and with a heavenly smile
on thy face we saw the strength of grace In
" Father, Thy will, not mine, be done," as it
feebly fell from thy pale lips. At last freed
from earth. thy sainted spirit has winged its
flight to the I" rest that remalneth for the peo
pie OF God" Earth has lost jewel, but
Heaven has gained a gem. We hope to meet
thee again in tho realms of light to part no
more. Sweet be thy rest till the resurrection
trump shall wake thy sleeping dust and bid
thee come to "inherlt the kingdom prepared
for thee from the foundation of the world"
Until we meet on the other shore, loved one,
farewell. A FRIEND.

THE extent and amount of building
in California for the year 1874 has
been far greater than in any two pre-
vious years. In nearly every city and
town in the State buildings have gone
up to an extent never before known on
the Pacific coast. In San Francisco
alone over two thousand new build
ings, many of them of the most sub
stantial and attractive character, were
erected last year. Next to San Fran
cisco, Los Angeles takes the lead in
building enterprise.

CALIFORNIA; Prosperity in 1874.

The following estimates of the yield
of agricultural products in California
in 1874 it's manufacturing and ship
ping interests, is compiled from statis-
tics furnished to the San Francisco
papers: Crops of all kinds in 1874
have been most abundant, and, al
though the price per bushel Of her
great staple-wheat-is less than last
year, she has this year greater num-
ber of bushels to sell; while in many
lines of agricultural products much
larger prices are obtained. The wheat
crop of 1874, it is said by shippers,
gives fully 100000 tons for expectation,
and possibly more. This is 20,00O,000
of bushels, or Il, 900, 900 centals to send
out to the hungry mouths of the world.
The whole wheat crop of the State
must have been not less than 30,0O0,000
of bushels, for it is admitted on all
hands that the crop of this year far
exceeds that of any previous one. The
crop of barley largely exceeds that of
other years and much better prices are
obtained for it than last year. Oats,
buckwheat, corn, beans, hops, pota-
toes, and all of the lesser products, are.
greater than ever, and commanding
good prices. This State has produced
this year nearly a quarter of million
pounds of cotton, and at profit to the
producers. The production of tobacco
has been largely increased during the
year and of superior quality, and
fully establishes the fact beyond all
further question that this State is par
ticularly adapted to the raising of to-
bacco. The large wine producers of
the State unite in the estimate that
the production of wine last year ex-
ceeds by fully forty per cent. that of
any previous year, and that the wine
is of good quality. The grapes were
extremely juicy and large number of
new vineyards came into bearing this
year, all of which contributed to the
increased and favorable results. There
was never time when California was
so completely loaded down with fruits
of all kinds as in 1874. The canning of
fruits and the Alden process of drying
has utilized large amount, while
hundreds of tons of fine fruit have
rotted on the ground. Our pastures
were excellent throughout the season,
and the products of butter and cheese
were much larger than in former
years, There is no danger Of this de-
partment of production being over
done in California. The wool clip of
this year exceeds that of the last by a
few millions of pounds, and would
have been much greater were it not
for the great loss of sheep in some dis
tricts by the severe weather year ago.
The price Of wool in the whole seasons
clip is better, on the average, than
that of the previous year. There has
been a large increase of immigration
in 1874 over any previous year. The
Bulletin estimates the gain of arrivals
over departures at $4,000, and the i'm
migrants have been of the right stamp
real, energetic, industrious workers.

For the benefit of people who do not
keep a constant fire, allow me to state
that on my arrival here l purchased
five dollars worth of coal from /. B.
Ferguson, that lasted me fourteen
days. l then purchased two dollars
and fifty cents worth of willow, the
most inferior kind of wood in the mar
ket, and this lasted me fifteen days,
all of which was used in the same
stove, in doing the cooking of my fam
lily. Since then l have purchased wood
from G. w. Whitehorn, No 40 Eter-

THE Cornell Watch Company, re-
Gently established in San Francisco, is
having trouble with its watchmakers.
The company insist on employing
Cinnamon in such positions as they
can fill, while the workmen object to
Chinese cheap labor. The fight is
still undecided. The way to settle the
point is for the watchmakers to quit
and the public to leave the company to
sell their Chinese made watches to
Cinnamon.

Loss, over Half a Million Dollars.
Great Excitement Prevailing.

San Francisco, April !. A destructive fire, ac-
companied with loss of life, occurred this after
noon at the corner of Fear and Harrison streets,
in this city. 1t was caused by an explosion of gi-
ant powder in frame building adjacent to Hatha-
ways bonded warehouse. The walls Of the ware
house were crushed in and a number Of frame
buildings occupied as saloons and dwellings were
blown to pieces and in few minutes the whole
was one mass of flames.
A number of men, women and children were
crushed by the falling ruins and some perished in
the flames. II is impossible at present to ascer-
tain the number Of lives lost or persons injured.
The fire is now under control, being confined to
the immediate vicinity of the explosion.
The loss in the bonded warehouse is no less
than 100000 The adjacent property burned,
consisting of hay barn, coal shed, saloons and
dwellings, perhaps $25 900 more.
Search is being made in the ruins as promptly
the fire will admit for the recovery OF bodies.
Three have been taken out thus far and it is thot
there several others the ruins, but in the
confusion prevailing it is impossible to ascertain.
There is Il large crowd Of persons at the scene Of
disaster and great excitement prevails.

About two o'clock yesterday afternoon, the body

KeSnebec bridge, in this city, together with the
main body on the eastern snore, moved down riv-

ice still hanging on the wharves and along the

is now hoped that it will 60 out without any dam
age.
We understand that the river is clear from
Kendalls Mills to point below Waterville bridge,
distance of about three miles. About mile Of
the ice from the Sebasticook has ioated down into
