The following from the Eureka Leg,icr
OF the iIh instant, will he read with
Unfcigned sorrow 10y many of the early
residents Of the State and coast. The
appended we'll merited tribute is to the
memory OF Augustus Gould, who died
Of Pneumonia III Eureka, Sunday, the

He came to this coast in So, remained
IN Cal fUrn!a until 1861. when The silver

He was prominent citizen in Austin for
twelve yrars,r moving to Eureka about

The M.sey Power.

The Cincinnati Enquirer comments
thus upon the recent election in the
Buckeye State: "The money power was
never before so visible in an Ohio elec-
tiou. Hundreds of dollars were paid to
men without influence, and with such
freedom ns to Indicate that there were
thousands behind the hundreds. The
Federal 60 ernment wns moved into
town, and the spectacle unprecedented
in Ohio, was presented Of the Federal
government appearing as corrupter Of
suffrage Deputy marshnls in unknown
numbers We're secretly appointed ut Ave
dollars per diem, WHO went about in
citizens' clothing voting and election
eerirg for the Republican party. With
all these appliances it is Amazing that
the State was not lost to the Democrats.
Money flowed freely in every Congress
siOnni District where there was hope Of
el.crinS n Republican member. Per
sonal u;tncSs we're made upon Demo
cratic candidates. Trading was resorted
to. and this partly explains the result
on the State ticket. which the Republi.
cans carried. They lost three Congress
men however, thus giving the control Of
Ohio's delegation to the Democracy.

not conqueror in thnt great State

Desperate Figuring.

The Republican papers are making
desperate efforts to figure out a result OF
the Congressional election, that will
take the control of the House Of Rep.
resentatives from the Democrats. Some
of them have given the Republicans n
positive majority over the Democrats.
Others, although not claiming Hepub-
lican majority. yet hold that the Green,
hackers will act with the Republicans
and thus live them the control in the
organization Of the House. There is
nn Inconsistency, however. in this.
from the fact that these same papers
have been making the fight on a hard
money platform. but now they say the
Greenbackers will act with the Repub
licnns. The fact is that the Green
hackers being inflationists, will simply
act with whatever party they have hith-
er:o belonged to on every question
where that Of initiation is not involved.
Now. there nre more than one. half of
the Greenbackers who have hitherto
been Democrats, so that even II il
should happen that the Democrats have
not clear majority over both the Re-
publicans and Greenbuckers, which,
however. We believe they have, still, by
the assistance of the Democratic Gleen-
hackers. they will have a majority Of ut
least twenty.

For the last few days there has been
in circulation here quite quantity Of
Mexican dollars, large proper ion Of
which are supposed TO be counterfeit.
We have noticed that the Idaho papers
have complained lately that the
Territory had been flooded with Mexican
dollars, which although genuine, are
worth intrinsically only about ninety
cents each. Perhaps tho coin in cirou.
la,ion here is Of the same kind. Even
II this is the case, however, the public
should he made acquainted with the
