The grand jury have presented one
person whom they deem guilty of having
tempered with the appropriation bill.
They notify their successors that there is
good cause for supposing that others may
be implicated. AS the grand jury does
not disclose the name of the party i'm
peached we are left to other resources,
surmises for instance, as to his identity.
We hope it is not one of the enrolling
clerks or a messenger employed to take
the bill from one Office to another. Rumor
has it that the person implicated is one
whose name has not heretofore been men
toned in connection with the affair. If
this be SO the jury has disappointed public
expectation. When the people make up
their minds to thing they do not like to
be thought mistaken. When they COM
pliment three or four high officials by
supposing them to be guilty of mutilating
the State records they do not wish the
grand jury to spoil the sensation by at
tempting to throw the blame on some
body else.
We have no inkling of the proof upon
which the grand jury based its indictment.
But the prevailing idea last night among
the knowing ones was that the much
heralded labors of that politico-judicial
body had resulted in the production OF a
mouse.

Senator West, whose arrival has al
ready been announced, returns to his
home under very opportune circum-
stances. A large number of distinguished
visitors, many of whom are his personal
acquaintance and official associates, are
in this city en- route for Mexico. The
desire on the part of our people to be-
come acquainted with some of the leading
minds of the ruling section of the coun-
try is at once natural and commendable.
The good offices of our Senator are,
therefore, invaluable in making such mu-
tually desired acquaintance.
Unfortunately for us, the stay of the
senatorial party is necessarily limited on
account of the lateness of the season.
The best time, as it is generally under
stood, to visit the tropics is in the winter
or during those months when cold
weather prevails in more Northern eli
mate. We are rapidly approaching sum-
mer, when tourists seek the high lati-
tudes. The time of their stay in the land
of the Montezumas will, therefore, be
short at the best, and the desire of the
excursionists to set out at once is founded
upon reasons which even hospitality itself
can not gainsay. Tie steamer Dispatch,
with the party on board, is expected to
sail to-day.

DIE WACHT AM RHEIN,"

In the month of September last there
was published in the Bee the text of the
new military system of France. In a re-
cent issue it published at the public re-
quest the principal provisions of the law
From these We learn that the military
males OF France are to be enrolled, and
assigned to service in one of four classes
The first class is subject to active service

tributed to the pleasure Of the occasion

wines of price, and speeches which we
were not allowed to deliver applauded to
the echo. We had hoped this thing would
have stopped. Yet it appears that our
Apicius of host is not satisfied. He gets
up another poisson davra. This time it is
''not supposition but reality" 1t is
ga splendid, fresh California salmon, from
Astoria, Columbia river, Oregon" It is,
moreover, described ''as sweet and juicy
as when it came kicking from its native
waters" Upon this famous fish we have
to make couple of points.
l. 1t is an April joke. 1t can not be
fresh California salmon" because
Astoria, the place from which it is alleged
to have been sent, is not in California at
all. The Columbia river in its chief
length separates Oregon from Washing
ton, and is not within three hundred
miles OF the California line. 1t would be
a mistake to suppose Oregon county in
the State of California. 1t is a sovereign
State in the Union. It was but few
days since we found a newspaper CORE
spondent journeying from London to
Europe, and with such a geographical
dereliction as this Columbia river bust
ness we shall have to convene class in
geography just so soon as the spellomania
shall have passed from our people. From
this reasoning We infer that the fish
Wanted by Apicius is myth and no
reality.
2. That this is but an appendix
to the quiz on the first instant
is shown by the attributes assigned to
this Californian from the Columbia river
He comes clicking" from his native
waters. Of course, this writer was alto
gether ignorant of the manner in which
salmon came from the water. We COM
mend to him the perusal of honest Izaak
Walton on salmon fishing, or let him even
invite to dinner that accomplished fisher
man P. G. before he NEEDLES further with
ichthiology. Our second observation would
be that the California salmon born in the
Columbia river is our fish at least in large
part. He is part of our repast spread
for us on the first instant. He has arrived
too late, but we will not, after the classic
example of the royal cook Vatel, in con-
sequence of similar accident, throw
ourselves on our sword for that cause.
On the contrary, we demand our
share of that California salmon from
the Columbia river. If Apicius
values the reputation of his gazette
for veracity, let him expose that Califor-
MAN, properly dressed and supported,
garnished and fanked with dishes worthy
himself, and allowed to 'kick" once more
in the generous vines of France, Ger
many, or even of his native California.
All fools day has its privileges like the
of old, but this thing of dis
playing imaginary banquets to the hungry
md thirsty journalist is an abuse and !
must be corrected. Fish stories are of |
doubt. Show up the veritable
fresh California salmon from Astoria on |
he Columbia river, Oregon or accept
he derision and denunciation of
deceived and bereaved profession.
