THURSDAY EVENING, FEBRY. %

Scene i'm CALIFORNIA; Mad-hOuse.
A correspondent of the San francisco Cbronl-
Gle writes from Sacramento the following de-
scription of what he saw in recent visit to the
State Lunatic Asylum. lie says -
A Digger Indian walked back and forward

most hideous grimaces, and occasionally break,
ing forth into low cry. A quiet man called
the renorter aside and SAID, Tell the police
