A very singular feature in the marine
landscapes between Terra del Fuego
and the contiguous mainland Is the
floating gardens of seaweed. The plant
frequently grows to length of between
300 and 400 feet. 1t gives cover and
pasture to every species of crustaceO,
great and small; while the intertangled
mass, swaying like ponderous curtain
in the water etiectually breaks the
shock of the most tremendous rollers

THE ASSESSMENT ROLL FOR 1877.

The subjoined is carefully collected state
ment of all the taxable property in Ormsby
county, that has been placed upon the assess.
ment roll for 1877, and the statistical matter

assessed in 1876. This year 200 poll taxes
will be collected, while in 1876 only 800 were
returned.

THE SONG OF A SHIRT.

This time it is Frank Boskowitz and no
Tom Hood who sings the ''Song of Shirt
Bosko says there is a man in town drumming
shirts, and that he, Bosko, will furnish the
same quality of shirts made to order and in
accordance with measure, for less money than
the said drummer will furnish them. Now
this is business of the right stamp. Bosko is
the man for our money. He is home made
man, and should be patronized and encouraged.
He stands by home folks and home interests
should stand by him. In this instance the
| fellow citizen will make money by standing
by this same rotund plucky little man. Do
you catch the idea ? You can get yourself
supplied with shirts made to your order and
sized and proportioned by your measure at
cheaper rates of Bosko than of the San Fran
cisco drummer aforesaid Try him and see.
The BUTCHER BoY.-In the days of our
adolescence the spirit of our dreams was, ''Tm
bound to be butcher boy or die If there
is anything in this world perfectly killing in
its style, and independent in it's movements,
it is butcher boy on his cart at the rate of
speed at which he ordinarily travels. There
is perfect freedom and utter " devil may
care" dash about him that is hugely refresh
ing. All our boyish hopes and fancies in the
butcher line were freshly brought up yester-
day upon noticing the utter disregard of
corners of fences and City Ordinances as
evinced by one of these tenderloin jockeys in
swinging around corner on short turn and
rushing his little milk white steed at 2,4O
pace aloug the sidewalk with an utter disre-
gard of the fact that there was street pro-
vided for vehicles. We have no wish to COM
plain of our boys. We wouldn't mention
him to the City Fathers for a porter-house
steak, but We do admire his reckless nonchal- |
ance and are thankful that the youthful re-
membranes were aroused, and the old long |
ing brought back in perennial freshness, even
though good sidewalk was spoiled by the
tracks of his wheels.

En- ROUTE FOR SAN QUENTIN. the
noteworthy arrivals in our city yesterday, was
Thomas Dewey, en- route for the California
State prison, where, the law says, he shall re-
main for the period of FIVE years. The pris-
oner committed a murder in Dutch Valley,
Alpine County, last May, and hedto Sheridan
to which place he was tracked by Sheriff
Burnham of Douglass County, and arrested
shortly after the preparation of the crime,
When the Sheriff arrived at Sheridan, the
people were making preparations to lynch the
murderer, but the officer who was after Dewey
wanted him alive and kicking, and by using
little strategy, the character of which the
Sheriff does not wish to make public, he got
away with his man under cover of night. We
don't think there is much to choose between
confinement in the State prison for term Of
years, and the end of rope.
