ELL PASSED.

The bill repeating the old Act relating TO
the incorporation Of Eureka has passed
both Houses Of the Legislature. In intro
ducing the repeal bill in the Senate, Mr..
Cassidy explained that the old statute was
o dead letter on the statute book; that the
people to whom 1t was referred had rejected
it, but there were legal gentlemen who be-
lieved it was law Notwithstanding the action
OF the people-that is to say. that the
Legislature being the sole Legislative power
in this State, could not make q law con-
tingent upon the ratification of the people;
and hence, to save all question. he thought
it best to wipe it from the statute books.
Inasmuch as the people had once pro-
nounced against it, he did not want it left
in shape to be taken advantage Of at some
future time.

Colonel P. A. Bee. Chinese Consul at
this port, says the bill restricting Chinese
immigration, which yesterday passed the
lower House of Congress, has excited but
little interest among the Chinese, who
merely opposed it as an apparent con-
cession to a class of people who have been
prosecuting them. Chen Shu Tong, Chi
nese Consul General, on being informed of
its passage, merely smiled and remarked
that it was curious. A number of the
more intelligent Chinese of the city regard
the bill as a good thing, because it will
stop immigration and perhaps assist in sat-
isfying public sentiment, so that the ques-
ton Of their residence here viii, for the
time at least, get rest. In addition they
think that there are already enough Chi
nese here for the good of both Caucasians
and Mongolians, and if immigration now
ceases, there will be a greater demand for
the present inhabitants, and wages will be
higher.

been sent In various directions and the
prospects are good that he will soon be
