A weather prophecy.-As Christmas

A Weather Pr0phecy.-As Christina
day comes this year on Thursday, the fol
lowing quotation from an ancient MSS. il
the British Museum is pertinent for publca
ton at the outset of winter as a prophec,
of coming events the approaching year:
If Xmas day on Thursday be,
A windy winter we shall see;
Windy weather in each week,
And hard tempests, strong and thick:
The summer shall be good and dry,
Corn and beasts must multiply;
That year is good for lands to till,
Kings and princes shall die by skill;
II child born that day shall be,
1t shall happen right well for he,
OF deeds he shall be good and stable,
Wise of speech and reasonable;
Who that day goes thieving about,
He shall be punished without doubt;
And if sickness that day betide,
1t shall quickly from thee glide.

The California Election.

OF the elections to be held this
fall that Of California which takes place
next WedL Lesday, September third, will
be no indication Of the result in other
States, no matter which party gains the
ascendency. Politics there are oonsid-
erably mixed up and from present indi-
cations whichever party succeeds will
be elected by minority Of the people.
The contest, which is Of itself sufficient
to cause considerable excitement, is in
tensifed by the shooting of Kalloch the
workingmen's candidate for Mayor Of
San Francisco. -Four tickets are in the
field for new sets OF State, county and
municipal officers are to put in motion
the machinery of Government as laid
down in the new Constitution. Candi-
dates are in the field for the State Off
GERS of Governor, Lietenant Governor.
Secretary Of State, State Treasurer, Comp
troller, Attorney General, Surveyor
General, Superintendent of Public In
struction, Clerk of Supreme Court and
Chief Justice. Aside from these. six
Associate Justices, three Railroad Com
missioners and three members of the
State Board of Equalization are to be
elected.
The four parties in the field are the
Democratic, Republican, Workingman's
and New Constitution party; the last
named having come to be- known as the
Honorable Bilks, title bestowed upon
them. by Kearney, on account Of the
number Of old political hulks brought
to the surface and placed upon the tick
et, that had long ago been shelved and
laid away as of no farther use. Amongst
these hulks or Bilks," as Kearney
calls them,i is ex.Judge Terry the muir
derer of Senator Broderick in 1861 wi no
had he his deserts would have been
hanged.
Another Honorable Blk is Hon. Cor
nelius Cole, an x.United States Senator
Of mild Repu blican proclivities, who has
been unearthed from his retirement and
placed with Terry upon the " Blk"
,icket.
The formation OF the New Constitu-
ion party was instigated by the San
Francisco Chronicle and some extreme
Democrats on the alleged ground that
he Workingmen had been sold out to
he monopolists by Kearney. The Hon
rable Bilk's, candidate for Governor,
)r. Hugh J. Glenn, is farmer on
igantic scale. He is said to cultivate
O,O0O acres of wheat land in Colusa
ounty. The nomination of Glenn is
ndorsed by the Democratic party. The
.epublicans have nominated George G.
erkins,a popular and influential gen
eman who is President of the Pacific
cast Navigation Company and is charg-
4 by the workingmen's party with
eing monopoly candidate. The work
,gmen have placed at the head Of their
ckst for Governor, William F. White.
Santa Cruz, who it is said to he an
Pennsylvania. Altoseth-
:, the election in California is Of the
rst importance, and the outcome will
y awaited with interest by the entire
ountry.

chairman OF the Finance Committee,
had supervision and always presented
in person to Council. All along he has
stated that BY the Arst Of September
there would be el2O, 900 in bank to the
credi: Of the City. Last night \ seems
he said $4,000, but with Ar. Guth.
ris's new tangled plan Of financial man
agement q little discrepancy Of $4,000
makes but little difference one way or the
other. But now for the facts Of the
case. At the meeting Of City Council
on Th ursday night, the 2lst. instant,
the City Treasurer reported in all in
the bank to the credit of the city, sll3'
37l.4o. The City Auditor, certified
under his official oath that the report
was correct. Mr.. Guthrie with his own
hand presented this report to the City
Council and had II read. Had IT been
wong, would he have allowed it to pass
as the report of the Treasurer We
think hardly. At that same meeting
orders were drawn amounting to SIS
O09.5 which must reduce the total
amount to s95, 3Gl.s3. At the meeting
Of Council last night, the City Trea-
surers report was presented BY Mr..
Guthrie as usual, certified to by the
City Auditor, and that report stated
that there was total Of $l06, ,2l7. AZ
in bank to the credit of the city. From
this must be deducted $ll 900 Of ths
orders drawn on Thursday evening
the 2lst which have not yet been
paid, leaving $4,000 in round
numbers. Last evening there were or
dsrs drawn amounting to $4sO.ls,
which with the salaries Of the members
Of the City Council to bepaid next Mon
day evening, will amount to s2,5OO.
This deducted will bring the total down
to 492, 500. A finished sewer awaiting
payment, and other orders to Le drawn
on Monday, night will still further re-
duce the total to 10000. Having
made good our assertions, which We
dare Mr.. Guthrie to successfully refute,
We will go little farther and tell Mr..
Guthrie that in this $50, 900 is included
81, 900 of the Latimer Trust Fund, and
$40, 900 belonging to the school bonds,
m making $4,000 more that cannot be
used for the city, and reduces the total
down to S7s,00O. In the face of all this
Mr.. Guthrie got up in Council last
night and stated that there were in the
bank to the credit ofthe city sl2s, ,467,-
80. Our case is made up and proven,
and now we leave Mr.. Guthrie to the
tender .nercies of his constituents.

A Bef0Rgled FinAuciar.

Councilman Guthrie, the Democratic
candidate for City Treasurer, was forced
