LOCAL INTELLIGENCE.

mento county mas been completed, and one
of the firm will be in the city at the close of
this week to deliver copies to subscribers. An
advance copy was exhibited here Saturday.
1t is very attractive work, and is marked
by good execution in every part. The paper
is heavy and of excellent surface the litho-
graphs fine and soft, and free from the black
and botchy work so frequently seen the
Typography is decidedly superior and the
binding neat and substantial. In appearance
it is pleasing to the eye, ornamental, and
credit to the publishers, photographers and
printers. Coming to the examination of the
book-which is large quarto extended-in
another respect, it is found to contain 294
pages of reading matter and go pages of
FULL illustrations. The frontispieces give
a view Of Suffers Fort with portrait of
General Sutter, and view of Suffers Mill,
of Sacramento in 1919 and j street in
the food of 1858 There are given also
views of the camp at Bonner Lake
and of the arrival of the relief party. TIE
other illustrations are the Capitol the Court
House, the County Hospital leading business
blocks aid hotels, and views of many fine
residences in the city and in the county out

rivers, in the interior, in the mining regions,
and in towns and settlements, are selected
from every township, save one, in the county,
aud present ghmpses of very many Of the

historical reviews are replete with dates, and
concise pointed and apparently accurate
the publishers challenging criticism in that
respect, and averring that their record is in
accord with the best authorities attainabe
and the best evidence procurable. In addi-
ton are tables showing who have been officers
Of the county government from the date OF
its organization, and an excellent ssctionized

colors. This map is a most desirable publ
cation, and supplies long felt want. A di-
vision of the book is devoted to sketches of
the immediate patrons of the work, the bust
ness men who guaranteed the publishers f.
nancial success in their undertaking. The

works on the State, and for people of this

value In a few years more it will be of even
greater value than now.
