Extradition Cases of Gray and Brent.

LONDON, April 7th.-Wm. e. Gray
of New York, who was up before the
Bow street Police Court yesterday for
alleged forgeries, was remanded to
April 18th, but as the United States
Legation is unwilling to base charges
on the papers now here, he will
be further remanded to await
the arrival of the American officer
now on his way here, who will
bring two fresh indictments. 1t
is thought the extradition of Charles
Brent, charged with frauds on the
Falls City Tobacco National Bank, of
Louisville, KY, and Gray, will be
governed by the decision in the Win
slow case. Nothing further can be
said at present about the negotiations.
The United States Government has
presented its view of the matter, and
it is supposed that Great Britain is
now taking the opinion of her law of

not help what has been done; let us

Wealth.

No one who has read history with
care is ignorant of the truth, that an
increase of wealth, is often the pre-
cursor of degeneracy and decay. AS a
rule, it is true of nations, families, and
individuals. 1t is said there are ex-
ceptions to all rules, but we presume
there are as few exceptions to this as
any other. 1t Is one of the strangest
freaks belonging to humanity, to per-
sue with unwearied diligence, that,
which all history teaches must bring
ruin in the end. But we are all in 1t
and somehow we cant help it. The
race for wealth, like mighty current
seems to be sweeping around the globe
and has drawn into the stream, all
classes of all nations. Once be-
fore in the worlds history did SINH
lar mania possess the people and the
result was the wreck of EN- pi res, the
destruction of nations, and general
desolation, ruin and suffering among
the people. What is to be the end of
the present mania God only knows.
But the corruption in high places and
the general bad faith and distrust
among all classes indicates state of
wrecklessness in morals, that portends
evil. 1t is not confined to America
alone. Every nation on the globe is
as corrupt as our own. The
great hue and cry recently
made about corruption in our own
nation arises from the fact that we
have been an exception to the rule
until few years back, while it has be-
come to be the nominal state of other
nations and is hardly noticed by the
press and the people. The govern
ments of other nations, is better adap-
ted to suit the wants of the avaricious
and lovers of power, than ours-pOwer
is concentrated in all other nations,
and few lords and mobiles can con-
troll and filch from the people as they
please, and have done so until it is no
longer noticed by the people. Only
think of four millions of dollars taken
from the hard earnings of the people,
and given to Prince Albert to spend
on pleasure trip to India.
With all our faults such an
insult would not be tolerated
in America. With a blush we
have to endure the jeers of the
press of Europe when the name of
Belknap is mentioned. But the only
difference is our officials have to steal
what theirs take by law, and while
they bow with their hats off to their
noble officials, We put ours in the PEN
itentiary, and put them to work. We
want no more slurs from the Euro
pean press. In the time Of the old
prophets it was declared that "All
nations had gone astray" or Vild.
They are all off on another bender
now, and no one seems to have much
the advantage of another. They were
brought up with q round turn before,
and as history repeats itself we may
expect their wild career to terminate
In similar manner.

League Island Navy Yard Investiga-


A Herald Washington special says:
The investigation of the League Island
Navy Yard has commenced. The
House Committee on Naval Affairs
have left for Philadelphia. Fifty wit
nesses are subpenaed so far. The
committee will seek to demonstrate
general mismanagement, frauds in
contracts, negligence of officers, en-
ployment of extra hands at election
time, etc., but the specific object will
be the circumstances attending the
removal of all the navy yards to
League Island. Mackey will be the
first witness, who will show flagrant
frauds and audacious corruption, and
that officers were intimidated into si-
lence or sent to sea.

RumOrs abouI RristoW.

The sensation is the rumored resig-
nation of Bristow, consequent upon
the testimony given by Henderson
that he (Brstow) declared TO him he
had no confidence in the Administra-
tion. Brstow went to Kentucky a
day or two ago. The regular press dis
patches deny Bristow's resignation.
Southern members feel that the ap-
pointment of Boutwell, as Chairman
of Morton's Mississippi Outrage Com
mittee is direct insult to the South,
as the witnesses they must examine
are the very men whom Boutwell, de-
clared to be liars and unrepentant.

A Few Extracts from Letters.

Extracts from letters lately received from
Stockton; the originals may be seen on ap-
piicatiOn to the undersigned.
"I bought and psd $500 for a Hunter mare,
broke and drove her-within four mont hs-to
wagon on a half mile track in 2:i0. Is now In
foal by III Imiltonian. l am offered $500 for the
colt at weaning. The Hunter stock has proved
the best stock we have had here, as II took
only four months to make them trot In thu 90
minutes, and If they had a good dam could
not be beat"
Il bought a bay Hunter mare from Cutler
Salmon, Esq. five years old, broke ami drove
her, within four months from purchase, q
quarter In 37% seconds, and sold her like
fool foOr $500. She was the best piece Of horse
flesh ever saw for her age-very pretty, gen.
tie as lamb, but of high metal. Hit her and
she would come every time, and never broke.
No other person pulled a line over her while
owned her."
"iSolid Situer, owned by Thomas George, is a
small horse, out of a scrub mare; has trotted
in the twentfes, and has public record OF
2:401a at last fair time, and badly handled at
that"
'There's team owned in Oakland, sorrels,
l554 hands, perfect beauties, can trot In 300

Morse, been handled only one season."
"Judge Brown has a mare six years old by
the old horse. She was sold at auction for
$500. She Is a natural trotter-it is useless to
offer $500 for her now"
From the above this public may form cor
rect idea of what may be expected from the
In reduction Of this STOCK into Los Angeles
county.

Rheumatism & Liver Complaint,

May hail with joy the advent in their midst
of these wonderful medicines, which the Doc
tor has labored for years to perfect, as a spe-
cific for the above diseases.
You that are suffering at once cast aside
your prejudice, derived, and justly, from re-
peated failures. We ask that your hopes may
revive, at least sufficiently to give this medi-
cine one fair trial. We feel bound TO do our
duty, and in justice to DIR. Clark and the suf-
ferng thousands who may read this card we,
the undersigned residents of this county and
vicinity, MOST FORTUNATELY speak from ex-
perience, and we assert most emphatic ally
the efficacy of the above medicines is irrefu-
table. Our friends, and even strangers, may
ponder over these remarks, but II the candid
truth from our lips robs them of their incre-
duIty sufficiently to place themselves, with
kindling hope, under the treatment of DR..
Clark, with his celebrated Family Medicines,
we well know that some good will accrue from
our efforts. and most heartily say

A Card to the Public.

= HESE Medicines, which are becoming so
popular in the Southern portion of this
State, are simply beating down all prejudice
and opposition as regards their efficacy here,
as they have been doing in San Francisco and
other places. BY their virtues. their irrefrag-
ible influences, surely and speedily effected,
the most incredulous are at once shorn OF
their doubts. Those who have dreaded and
suffered with those excrucating discs,
