SAN FRANCISCO ITEMS.

erably lowered in this city, and at o'clock
| this morning heavy shower of hail fell.
The United States Lighthouse tender
Manzanita is going out next week to put
down new set of buoys at the various
points off the harbor. All, with the ex-
ception of the automatic buoy, will be
changed, and the new ones will be put in

The schooner w. L. Beebee, which ar
rived in port this afternoon from Honolulu,
brings the intelligence of the arrival at that
port, ON the 2Sth ultimo, of the Hermine,
IS days from Hongkong, with smallpox
on board. She had one death on the pas
sage, and two or three down with the dis
ease when she got in port.
For the first time in nearly three years
the departures overland from San Francisco
last month were in excess of the arrivals.
This thing has occurred only twice before
in the history of the road. The arrivals
last month were 400 less than for the same
month in the previous two years, while the
departures were about LOO more. The
departures by sea last month were $50 in
excess of the arrivals.
1t is now several weeks since the law
protecting seals at the entrance to the
Golden Gate was repealed, yet the seals on
the rocks at Point Lobos have remained
undisturbed. 1t appears that the city and
county ordinance prescribing the discharge
of firearms within 300 yards of any dwell
ing within the county stands as bulwark
of protection to these sea mammals. The
proprietors of the Cliff House threaten to
arrest any person violating the ordinance.

RECONSIDERATION.
Mr.. MAY called up the motion to reconsider Sen
ate Bill No. 362-the San Francisco charter.
Mr. BRAUNmART did not believe there would be
votes enough TO reconsider this infamous measure.
The SPEAKER called him to order, saving he
wouli not allow any member to allude TO any action
of the body as infamous.
Mr. BRAusHARr denounced the bill. He would
be recreant TO bis trust if he did not denounce the
measure which is to despoil the treasury OF San
Francisco.
Mr. DEL VALE said if it was rot unparliamentsry
he would say that this bill is the consummation OF
all infamy. The mouths Of members had been
gagged by the previous question, which had shut
out all protests. He hoped the people would brand
this measure having passed under the lash and
gag of the majority. This bill legisates out Of office
OF the best officers the State in order give
room for some one else. As representative of the
whole State he entered his protest sgainst having
this measure crammed down his throat without
means of amendment or dehate
Mr.. MATHEWS said Lord Byron had remarked that
after he had written the first few lines of his English
Bards, he felt better. He had hopes OF getting a
reconsideration but he would feel better after ex-
pressing his views. All bad legislation is put
tarough. under the previous question. There was
not single Democrat in San Francisco who has
rec commended the passage Of this bill, as has been
charged. A few camp followers, claiming to be
Democrats, have done 50; but they are hot Demo-
cra,s--but the very worst enemies the party has.
Mr.. SPENCER said be was aware that the fiat had
all amendments have been shut of, and the mem
bers have closed the ears to all investigation 1t
is in direct violation OF the Constitution which the
members sworn to support. The bill has not re-
ceived the support OF the press of San Francisco
1t has been put through under the lash. He wanted
chance to place himself record, and to say that
the Republican parry will rue the day this bill was
passed.
Mr. TYLER said he felt badly for the Democracy
1t is the first time he has ever heard any how ing
from that party over blunder on the part of the
other party. The charter puts the power in the
hands Of the best cit zens of San Francisco to
squelch incendiarism, and that is the of all
these tears The Democrats say they can't stand it.
They have got to stand it. They had as well take
it kindly.
Mr. SIMON said the bill has been railroaded through
without giving the representatives from San Fran
cisco chance TO he heard. It turns the govern
ment of San Francisco upside down, and makes
political machines out OF all the departments. They
refused to sed 1t to the San Francisco delegation

A PRoTEcToRATE WANTED. Five Ka-
byle chiefs, representing the inhabitants of
portion of the coast of Morocco, have late

districts from which they come. Strong
hopes are expressed by the Spanish press
that the authorities will accede to this re-
quest. The annexations lately made by
Germany, it is urged, beginning with that
of the Danish Duchies and ending with
that of the provinces of Alsace and Lor-
raine; the annexations made by Italy
from Sicily to the Papal States, by England
from India to Cyprus, and the occupation

An OLD DEBT HONESTLY PAID.-A gen.
tleman who has been resident of Des
Moines for several years, and who is at
present in a acramped condition, financially,
was about thirty years ago prosperous
merchant of Boston. Twenty-Five years
ago he went on friends bond for $3.50,
and had to pay over the money. Yester-
day he received letter from the friend of
former years, in which he stated that he
had been trying for several years to ascer-
tain the whereabouts of the Des Moines
man, had written all over the country and
finally heard of man of that name in this
city. If he, the letter, continued, proved
to be the Boston merchant of twenty-five
years ago the writer gave him to understand
that ne was ready to liquidate his indebt-
edness and pay the $3.50 with interest. 1t
will prove quite windfall for the gentle
man, and could not come in a better time
than now Des Moines Register.

SoUELcHIEG THE SCALE BUG.-The Mer-
curry recent description of the various scale
bugs that infest the fruit trees of this val
ley has excited great interest among orcha-
dists, and several methods of destroying
the pests have been suggested, more or less
reliable. John McKune says he has used
the following with good effect ON his trees ::
One pound of lye and one pint of coal oil
boiled together for fifteen or twenty min
utes. This forms kind of soap, which
can be put on the tree with common corn
broom, and Mr. McKune states that no
scale bug can live after the preparation has
once touched it. He also states that it does
not harm the tree unless it touches the TO-
liage, and the best way is to apply it before
the trees put forth their leaves. He has
had great experience among fruit trees, and
his recommendation has great value. Still
we should be inclined to advise great eau
ton during the boiling process Coal oil
sometimes takes summary vengeance on its
tormentors, and in this ease 1t might de-
stroy the house instead of the bugs, unless
closely watched and carefully handled.

prospectors have been more successful in
this district for six months past than dur

A number of miners who have hitherto
confined all their attentions to explorations
in gravel have forsaken that business and
begun looking for ore deposits, with en-
couraging results. Several of the newly
discovered properties are being negotiated
for by capitalists and agents now stopping
in the city, and with every prospect of
bargains being effected soon. With the
improved methods of extracting gold that
have been invented recently, and are being
constantly discovered, miners have quit
devoting all their efforts to hunting for
high-grade ores only, as was the case until
within short time. Fair-sized lodges that
will average from 81 to Sl2 ton are no
longer regarded as worthless, but, on the
contrary, are considered better finds than

WASHINGTON, April 13th.-The Exodus
Committee to-day examined R. L. Falker
lcolored), 63 years old, from Natchitoches,
La. He said he was Republican, but voted
the Democratic ticket for safety He was
disgusted with the Republican State leaders.

parish, and had been taken from home by
masked men few nights before the election
in 1868, robbed of his purse and registration
papers, and advised to resign his position and
withdraw from politics, which he did. The
Vice-President of .he Club, who was called
out, recognized some of the party, and was
therefore instantly killed. Witness had been
