TwADDLE.-The s. F. Chronicle of
Wednesday last devotes two pages to the
publication Of letters from the several
counties of this State, most Of which are
devoted to wide guesses on the result of
the approaching election, spiced with eu-
legistic comments on the course of that
paper. anything more was needed To
show the utter unreliability of that sheet
Its estimate on the result furnishes the
evidence. 1t modestly places the major
ity In the State in favor of the New Con
stitution at 25,20O. The odd 200 is cred
tied to Trinity County and might Just AS
well be stricken of, for this county will
give larger majority against the Con.
stitution. From many counties the
Chronicle has one sided letters on which
to base its calculation, but from Trinity
1t has nothing, or at least publishes moth
ing. If its figures are as reliable for other
places as here, it will be safe to bet that
the New Constitution will be- defeated oy
at least 25,201.

KEARNEr had another head put on him
IN San Francisco the other day and has
consequently abandoned his northern
trip. The opponents Of the New Consti-
tuition are sorry for this-that is the
abandonment-as it was expected that his
advocacy would make many votes against
it. The cause of the row seems to have
been that man named Davis had paid

the Constitution Kearney went back on

LAND MONoPoLY.-One of the most
needed reforms which were demanded OF
the Constitutional Convention was some
provision which should strike decisive
blow al the holders oflarge tracts of land
in this State. That the Convention fail
ed to apply, or even attempt a remedy for
this worst of evils, is manifest by pc
rusal of the New Constitution, it being
without even reasonable promise of re-
lief. 1t is not strange therefore that we
find such landed aristocrats as DR..
Glenn, of Colusa, holder Of 1000 acres
of land, and j. @. Wilson, of Tehama,
owner of $4,000 acres, advocating the
adoption OF the new instrument. Both
gentlemen are credited with saying that
they favor the New Constitution becau SO
it is to their interest to do SO.

BY John G. Bureh. If the State had
been been gone over with fne-tooth

amin alton is the most extraordinary IN
the State. Mr.. Burch was member of
Congress from this State just at the time
when II was thought that this country
was going to pieces. He delivered a
speech which made great noise. He
talked Of carving out Pacific Republic
by the Cesarian operation, and spostro-
phised the cactus, the mblem Of Cali

ion. Disappearing he was variously
nicknamed John Cesaran Burch and
John Cactus Burch. There was nothing
left Of him. The utterances were so in.

had the hard hood to take him up. For
while he was slowed away in a pigeon

The group will be complete when q few
other figures in the lin past come to the
front. We are somewhat impatenty
waiting for the announcement that our

him and few others. Every individual
long since laid away in the Siurian epoch
Of our history, is expected to get himself
together and declare for the new Consti.
