WASHINGTON, November 1.-THE Com
missioner of the General Land Office to.
day decided. the long pending matter Of
the survey OF the San Pueblo lands, com
prising the greater part Of the area now
covered by the city, and involving proper
tyinterests to the amount OF many millions
Of dollars. The nominal parties to the
controversy are the city and State Of Cali
fornia. The decision Is in favor Of the
State on the survey, which until recent
period has been universally accepted as
correct, and the effect Of this decision, II
confirmed BY the Secretary Of the Interior,
will be to leave all existing titles derived
from the city undisturbed, rs well as those
adjacent to the exterior boundaries OF
Pueblo which we9 received from the State.

MoRoASTowS, W. Va, Nov. II.
Correspondents Of the Intelligeneer.
The farmers OF Monongalia county are
layinga solid foundation upon which they
expect to stand when the storm which Is
to follow the resumption Of specie pay
ment shall sweep over the land. They
are clearing out thickets and fence rows,
re-adjusting and re-arranging fences, cut
ting down the underground OF their wood
lands, sowing timothy and clover, and pre-
paringto raise more cattle and sheep.
Many OF our stock men who have been
for several years past depending upon the
Western cattle markets to supply their
needs, have come to the Conclusion that il
ispoor economy for. us 10 send annually
TO Chicago and other Western cities large
sums OF money to procure stock, when we
have such ample provisions for raising
better stock than we obtain from the West.
The practice OF butchering calves is dis
couraged, and some OF our people are in
Clned TO the opinion, strange rs 1t may
appear, that the legislature should pass
an act forbidding the destruction OF young
cattle, sheep or hogs. II the Legislature
has power, and il it be wise Legislation, to
prevent the destruction OF birds and fishes
ut certain seasons OF the year, why shall
we not have law to prevent the destruc.
ton of domestic animals. Let the press OF
the State discuss this subject. The farmer
who butchers his calves, hogs land
lambs when they are OF but little
value, certainly checks the prosperity
OF the community in which he lives. Let
us have law that will multiply the num-
ber OF cattle, sheep, horses and hogs, and
which will at the same time diminish the
number OF dogs, and our farmers will be
able to stand though "the rains descend
and the floods come"
The election in Cass district OF this
county, held last Saturday, showed that
majority OF the voters were opposed to the
proposed subscription OF $4,000 TO the
narrow gauge railroad.

night, ut Academy Hall. The audience
was not3large, and the speaker in his in:
PRODUCTION stated that he was disappointed
in the size OF his audience, but that he
expected the audience would feel as much
disappointed by the time the entertain.
ment ended-as he did Mt the beginning
The fact that no one Mt the close OF the en-.
tertainment contradicted this assertion OF
the speaker, indicates that there was more
'ttruth than poetry in the, remark -
Lam inclined to believe that MI. X, did
not do Himself justice here. He certainly
possesses great powers OF imitation.

OF the latter vessel, was unable to render
any assistance, owing to the lines on both
vessels being too short. Later in the day
the st. Albaas, after throwing overheard
most OF her fuel and a portion OF her
freight, was released by the tugs Welcome
and Hogeman and brought to this port.
