The Gseat Pedestrian Feat.

The great International pedestrian
contest has ended in decided victory
for O'Leary, the American cha upon,
with q score of $40 miles in six days,
over the best walkers and runners
England could produce. The tourna-
ment was the result Of an otter by
Sir John Ashley, NJ. F.. who guaran-
teed prizes amounting to 900 for Il

LETTER FROM CALIFORNIA,
Written for the HERALD. -

Dear HERALD My first and last
correspondence was from Colusa, Col
usa Co., Call, but having changed my
base of operations, | write you as Il
correspondent rrn", hnl;i""h
California winters indeX the COM
ing wear generally, and if this be a
guide at all, the present year is to be
a prosperous one. l think will dca-
cribe Oakland, as that is now my
home, and is one Of the most bcauti-
ful cities on our coast, and is to San
Francisco, what Brooklyn is to New
York and more too, for without per
adventure, Oakland in the history Of
the present and coming century will
be the grandest city on tae Pacific
Coast. In population she now .num-
bcrs As, 900 and in five years it will
reach 10000 according to the past
three years.
Big rains in California arc the sal
walton of the state and no doubt this
wear we will all be saved so far as the
Northern and SoQthern part of the
state is concerned, we know they are
troubled like ourselves, with an abun-
dance Of rain.
AS to prices of general commodities
(wheat and ba-'cy) they are well up.
AS to times, they are hard; they are
close, and it seems strange &c Inc that
SO many come here expecting to get
into business. The fact Is, California
is entirely over-run with every kind
Of business, and still people keep COM
ing to get into business. Some may
ask: How is this thus, that others
can do well, and do do well? / will
answer them il few words. /, Very
many came in an early day, and took
up lands at merely nothing Per acre,
and have since held it. and to-day own
it and are very wealthy. 2, So far as
professions are concerned, California
like all parts of the world always has,
and always will give room to adopts
on the top shelf. In saying the above
one must not infer that there is none
in California, and that people hero
do not know anyth ng.
SO far as school or schools are con.
cerned, there is, perhaps no State il
the Uulon that can compare with Cal
ifornia in her excellent school system
So far as the different parts or por
tions Of this state arc concerned, Oak
land stands foremost and has bcel
named the City of Schools, (and righ;
fully too.) 1t contains more school
houses, more school property, and ha:
more scholars than any city Of TIT
Union of its size and many say. o
thrice her size and l do not doubt i
with my present knowledge.

will, hereafter write and give yo'
all good and fair descriptions Of wha

The Lessen of the New Hampshire
Election.


The result of the recent election in
our sister state presents considera-
tions of an interesting character. The
campaign was inauguratsj under dis
couraging circumstances. The party.
was divided in its views upon the Pre-
sident's policy, and the enemy count
ell upon internal aissensions to In

tion. lie had then just issued his man.
ifesto against President Hayes, and
was earnest in his advocacy Of his
views of public policy. There were
also in the same Convention, able and
jealous supporters Of the line Of ac-
tion adopted by the President. The
Committee on Resolutions, selected to
present platform of principles upon
which to fight the canvass, recognized
the situation, and gave to the party Il
declaration of views, which met the
approval OF all earnest Republicans,
Freedom of individual thought was
acknowledged, and faith i'll the broad
ideas of the Cincinnati plaGOrp reit-
Grated. Honest differences Of opinion
were entertained by many, and those
opinions were respected. Being the
party of free speech, and free thought,
the course adopted was in harmony
with the grand motives, which have
for years actuated, and made glorious
the Republican party. Principles,
not men, rule the Republicans Of the
old Granite State.
A love of liberty, desire for equal
rights, and the continued asccndency
of the party whose record is iIlumined
by itG earnest efforts in behalf of Au.
man progress, are ideas which have
an abiding hold upon free and in
telligent people These principles
are deeply rooted in New hampshire
No party, unless they cspouse these
views, can hope for, much less achieve,
success in the pltlve state of Chase
and Webster.
We regard the recent victory, Il;
the grandest ever achieved by The
Republicans Of that Republican state
1t has proved the intelligence an,
good sense Of he2 people, it has show
that no man power is acknowledged
that New Hampshire is Republican
from principle, and her citizens are
unmoved by false friends, or dissemb.
ling enemies. There was no excite
ment to influence, no promise of pat
ronaga to control: the steady yeoman
ny of the state gave the questions be-
fore them earnest and deliberate
thought, and the result gives increas
ing and strong faith to the lovers O
Tree and representative governmcnt
It shows that men when they think,
think rightly, and when they ac
deliberately, their deeds are deed
Of wisdom.
Our faith in the continued rule o
the Republican patty is grounded up
on our belief in the excellency Of tn
principles it maintains, and in the in:
telligence Of the American voter
Should ignoraEce hold sway, then W
look to the ascendency of the part
whose ranks are filed with those who
care for success, more than for goo
government. But while free school
and the means Of diffusing knQwledg
are fostcred, cared for, nourishcC
and believed in by our people, so Ion
we look for progress, and the uphold
