THE great question of the imme-
diate future is as to whether the
United States will be equal 10 its
opport tunities. We have been lam
entably nibil for some time past.
II the old Democratic party, with
its vigor and national impulses,
can be resurrected, this country is
all right. The United States have
been in q Rip Van Wrinkle slum-
Der for the past twenty years.
When we went TO sleep the United
States possessed u merchant marine
which veXed all the oceans of
the earth, and which was only a
close second TO that of Great Brit
ain. We possessed Navy which
was only a slight remove from that
Of England, and which could have
been easily brought up to the
standard of the older country, and
hey ond it, for that matter. Some
twenty years have passed since the
Navy of the United States was Sec
ond only to that of England, and
now the sum total of our Navy
comprises, after spending easily
half n billion upon it, lot of rot
ten old tubs which are not, all
told, worth single English line of
battle ship. Such are the miracles
of administration of the "God and
morality" Republican party. May
heaven forefend us from longer
continuance of such rule!

THE editors of the Express grave
Iy annoul ces that because the
vote of California in the present
election was not as large as that OF
the PRESIDENTIAL. election OF 1876,
the population and vote of the
State have decreased. The $4,000
votes polled by the Workingmen
seem to have impressed our con-
tenn porary with an immense idea
of the strength of that organiza-
tion. That paper doubts II even
fusion can beat the Workingmen
hereafter. Now we have several
observations to make on these pos
tulates. The first is that, In our
opinion, the vote Of California Is
larger than ever before, If it can be
interested in an election. The Sec
oud is that If "fusion" IL again
attempted IN this State, with two
self respecting political organiza-
tions in full vigor in the country at
large, vi tue l55, 800 votes which
were polled in the Presidential
election of 1876, fully 100000 will
vote the Workingmen's ticket next
time. We know some newspaper
men, even, who would walk twenty
miles to cast Democratic, and, II
they could not cast Democratic,
a Workingmen's ballot, rather
than fall into the eunuch like stale
OF politics which would be indi-
Gated by second "fusion." Mes
sieurs politicians! we serve you
with due notice. "You pays your
money and you takes your choice
The Democratic party of California
is in u bad way, as it il, but one
more so.called illusion" movems snt
and both parties may as well pack
up their kits and take their leave
Faugh! The idea of such
eunuch like palitics is bickening
The Workingmen's movement
would he thousand times prefera
ble to such thimble.rigging.

Japanese Foot-Gear.

Among the first things that
strike tile traveller in Japan are the
wooden sandals wern by these 36,.
100000 of people. They have
separate compartment for the
great toe and make u clackipg
noise on the street. Straw slippers
are also worn, and a traveller set
ting out on journey Will strap a
supply of them on his back, that
he may put on new pair when
the old ones are worn out. They
cost but three farthings pair,
and. leaving the foot free to the
air, we never see those deforDities
of the foot in Japan which are so
frequent liz this country. They are
never worn in the house, being
left outside the door. Passing
down a street you can see long rows
of them at the doors, old and new,
large and small. 1t Is surprising
to see how readily the Japs step
out of them and pick them up
again with their feet, without
stopping, when leaving the house.
Constant habit makes them dex-
ferrous.

FACTS AND FIGURES ABOUT BODIE.

Mr.. W. A. Skidmore, superintendent Of the
Summit mine at Bodie, and mining man of
much and varied experience, who was in the
city u few days since, EN- route for San Fran
cisco, gives the following interesting facts and
figures relative to the camp which has in one
year become 80 very important. He gives the
present population of Bodie at 5000 souls.
There are forty odd saloons in the camp, sell
ing whisky, and ten faro games. Mr.. Skid
more looks upon the thriving existence OF
ouch classes of business in a mining camp as
An evidence of the prosperity of the place.
Regarding the mining and milling interests in
that growing mining town, he says that the
Bodie mine has already paid its stockholders
$500, 900 in dividends, ont of not qnite one
years operations. The Standard mine has
paid similar sum 20 its stock holders, beside
having on hand machinery and other property
valued at 100000. The very light milling
facilities in the camp naturally limits the pro-
duction: but all of this will be remedied dur
ing the ensuing year, and then the bullion
product will amount to at least 81 900, 900
per month Al present there are only four
mills in the camp, possessing the following
capacities the Bodie of 20 stamps; the
Syndicate, of 90 stamps; the Standard, OF
20 stamps, and the Bodie of 10 stamps. The
Standard mill will have its crushing capacity |
increased at an early day, and in the spring |
the Bulwer Mining Company will also put up
aO-stamp mill Before the year of 1879 has
outgrown its infancy Bodie will have at least
five dividend paying mines. Very few enter !
prising men who visit the camp now, and have !
few dollars in their possession, care to take
permanent leave of it. The outlook is
bright and cheering, and within the next two
years Bode will rival any mining town on the
coast far population and prosperity are
concerned

PINE NUT VALLEY MINES.

Mr. Fred Frevert, one of the old, staid and
reliable citizens of Douglas County, was in the
city last night and speaks in glowing terms of
the mining future of Pine Nut Valley. He
says that Gray and Carter, among others,
have been prospecting in the Valley for the
past year, and during the past six months
have been working their two mines, the
"Gray and Carter" and the "Warhorse'. At
first the lodges in their mines were only a
few inches thick, in fact, they found what is
termed float quartz; but at a depth of 40 feet
the veins in both mines grew to be A feet
wide and are constantly increasing in width.
The rock is similar to that taken from the
Bodie and assays from 81 900 to ST. 700 per
ton. A wagon load of this ore was shipped
to Silver City few days since to be crushed,
but the result has not yet been stated. Among
the prospectors in the valley there are quite
a number of Mexicans, who are supposed to
have made some rich discoveries, but they
are very reticent and will give no information
to Americans. Mr.. Frevert believes the
Pine Nut country to be full of rich lodges
and is confident that before the expiration of
a great while the rush to that section will
equal the Bode excitement
