Correspondence is like sound, it
goes in waves, or more like our eli
mate, changeable. For time our
local papers will be full. the writer's
seem to vie with one another to see
who will say the best thing and say it
oftenest, Gradually the storm abates
and naught is heard save now and then
some faint whisper, telling US Of some
Important event which has called
forth their latent powers. It is not
necessary for US to say that such
things should not be. Every neigh.
borhood should have correspondent
and one, too, who is prompt in doing
his duty.

"Cress" writes from Paris: 1t is
treat to see a Parisienne cross muddy
street. She advances tip-toe to the
edge of the pavement. There she
poises like bird ready for flight, and
then deftly she raises her dress more
than enough to slow her snowy EN-.
broided skirt, the dainty hose and Gle
giant bottiness, and without delay she
trips across, toe and heel barely
touching, and mud refusing to cling
to her fairy feet that hardly leave an
impression on it. Landing on the
other side she gives her fine feathers
little shake into place and passes on
with shoes that look as if put on that
moment.
Watch an Enlishwoman Immediate
ly afterward. She reaches the curb
stone, and comes to dead stands till,
and stolidly contemplates the muddy
road. Finally she selects a muddy
route. Then very cautiously lifts her
dress making sure tina, the tops of her
shoes are under cover, and then slO ".
ly advancing, she puts out her right
foot-plum it sinks into the soft mud
then the left-plum it goes, the wa.
ter oozing over it; and then splash,
splosh, until the other side is reached
when, with soiled skirts and soaked
shoes, she proceeds on her wet and
muddy way.
Nothing could be more characteris-
tic of their respective nationalities
and nothing could be more amusing
than the mutual contempt for each
others ways.

We learn that there was large as.
sembly at Turner Hall last Sunday
evening, at the dramatic entertain
ment given at that time. Those who
were present report that the play was
rendered in creditable manner; that
all the leading parts, as we'll as some
of the others, were played in a way
that was very satisfactory to the whole
audience.
Geo. McCarty, of Mulligan, whose
leg was amputated, two weeks ago, died
at his residence, on Tuesday morning,
the 9TH inst. His interment took place
on the following Thursday, under the
auspices of the Catholic church of slee.
py Eye. Mr.. McCarty was about 48
years Of age when he died. He had re-
sided about IA years in our county,
and during that time won many friends
by his upright and friendly ways. He
leaves wife and eight children to
mourn his departure.
Oh. Ross has purchased a bea'ltl'
full upright piano of E. A. Tiffany OF
Mankato. The latter gentleman was
here on Friday and Saturday, putting
the instrument in order. A great deal
of difficulty was experienced in get
ting the piano into Mr.. Ross rooms'
the stairway not being broad enough
to allow its passage in that directi on.
It was finally decided to make an
opening in the wall between the Sec
ond story of Behnke's store and the
hallway, and IN this way the instru'
ment was brought to it's destined
place.

GRANT AND BLAINE.

A strange story is telegraphed about
Grants animosity to Blaine. 1t is said
that the former deeply resents the latter's
course in regard to the Chicago Conven-
ton, and that he has carried his resent.
ment so far as to break off all social
relations with the Senator from Maine.
If this story were credible it would amount
to a serious indictment of Grants iudg-
ment and common sense. 1t would imply
that he thought Blaine had no right to
make the best fight he could for himself
at Chicago, or that he had no right to ask
his friends at the last to vote for General
Garfield. Such view on the part OF
Grant could only be explained by reviving
the old theories of imperialism which were
once so general Mr.. Blaine had at least
as good right to make his fight at Chi
cago as General Grant had, and he was
certainly under no obligation TO send his
strength over to that faction which was
headed by his bitterest enemy, Conkling.
We hope, for the credit of Grants reputa.
ton. that this story is a libel, for certainly
if true it would be very greatly to his dis
credit.

AN IMPORTANT DECISION.
Responsibility of Common Carriers and
Warefousemen

Responsibility Of Common Carriers and
warehousemen.
Department One of the Supreme Court
on Monday affirmed the Judgment of the
Court below in the case of Hirshfield vs..
Central Pacific Railroad Company. This
action was brought to recover the value of
certain goods sent by the plaintiff from
San Francisco TO Sumner, Kern county.
The findings show that the cars of defend
ant containing the goods arrived at Sumner
about 10 A. NJ. of May 6, 1875 that an
hour afterward the agent of the plaintiff,
who was informed that the goods had ar
rived, paid the freight thereon, receipted
for the goods, and was told that the goods
would be unloaded sometime during the at
ternoon. About 2 P. NJ. the teamster called
for the goods, but they were not then I'M
loaded He was informed that the goods
would be unloaded and ready for delivery
as soon as they could be reached, and there
fore the teamster left Sumner, where he
only remained twenty minutes. The cars
were unloaded with reasonable dispatch,
and the goods were unloaded and ready for
delivery at half-past P. NJ. of the same
day. After the goods were unloaded, they
were safely placed by the defendant in its
warehouse. subject to delivery TO plaintiff
at any time when called for. On the night
of May 9th the warehouse and its con-
tents, including the plaintiffs goods,
were accidentally destroyed by fire. The
question, therefore, on which the case
turns is whether the responsibility of the
defendant, when the goods were destroyed,
was that of common carrier or warehouse
men. If the former, it is liable for the
loss sustained By the plaintiff; if the lat
ter, it is not liable. The question is
answered by Section 2l20 of the Civil
Code. amended in 1874. That section de-
clares: eff, for any reason, carrier does
not deliver freight to the consignee or his
agent, personally, he must give notice to
the consignee of its arrival, and keep the
same in safety upon his responsibility as
warehouseman, until the consignee has had
reasonable time to remove it. Ii the
place of residence or business of the con-
signee be unknown to the carrier, he may
give the notice by letter dropped in the
nearest postoffice." According to the Sec
ton as originally enacted, the defendants
responsibility would be that of common
carrier, and therefore liable for the
plaintiff loss; but in 1874 the Legislature
saw fit to change the rule and reduce the
responsibility to that of warehouseman.
The defendant in this case used proper dill
igence in unloading the goods, and when
unloaded safely, placed them in its ware
house, subject to delivery to the plaintiff
at any time when called for. For the SUBJ
sequent loss, under the circumstances
stated, the defendant was not responsible.

CABLE ROADS IN CHICAGO.

The success OF the cable street railroads
in San Francisco has at last convinced
Chicago capitalists that the same plan will
work well in that city. and arrangements
have been made to substitute cables for
horses on more than one line 1t is indeed
surprising that Chicago enterprise should
have been SO tardy in this connection.
Cable roads have been in successful oper-
alton during FIVE years in San Francisco,
and in short time there viii be no other
kind used in that city. Yet Chicago has
hesitated all this time to adopt the prin-
ciple, and is only now beginning to wake
up to its great and manifest advantages.

IMPORTANT TO MINERS. the LIST Of
January Saturday next) draws near, it
will be well for miners to see that the as
sessment work is begun on their claims on
that day, and tor their information that
part of the Act of Congress, approved JAN
uary %, 1850, relating thereto, is given
Section .. That Section 1924 OF the Revised Stat
utes of the United States be amended by adding the
following WORDS: " Provided, that the period
within which the work required TO be done annually
on all unuatented mineral claims shall commence
on the first day Of January succeeding the date OF
location of such claim and this section shall apply
to all ella located since the 10th day OF May lsa2
It will be seen, therefore, that the an
nual work must be begun before II o'clock,
midnight, of the LIST of January, otherwise
the claim will be subject to relocation.

FOREIGN IDEAS OF AMERICAN CHAR
ACFER.

It seems that some people in France have
formed the belief that the American nation
is in very truth devoted to the worship of
the Almighty Dollar, and chat all that is
necessary to secure American support for
the Panama Canal is to purchase a few in
fiuentisl citizens of the United States by
giving them sinecure positions with fat
salaries in connection with the enterprise,
Mr.. Thompson must experience some rather
peculiar sensations when he sees the in.
depreciation which foreigners have put
upon his eager acceptance of the Chairman
ship of the American Committee of the
Panama Canal, while he was still men,
Der of the Cabinet. Perhaps we ourselves
should have been able to appreciate the true
inwardness of this kind of transaction had
some American corporation, about to put
its stock on the London market, offered
Craftsmanship to Mr.. Bright or Mr.. Cham.
berlain, and had either of those gentlemen
accepted the offer as promptly as Mr..
AhoihPSVh uiu lios OuuSE lIlt ClICUNl-
stances we cannot say that the mistake of
the Frenchmen is altogether unnatural.
They are astonished that a member
of the Government should thus lend his
official position to foreign commercial
enterprise, and especially at such juno.
ture, and when they try to explain the
the one intimated in the dispatches. It is
iadeed possible that NJ. Lesseps, whose
powers as first-class fabricator have sell
dom or never been surpassed in modern
times, may have done something toward
disseminating the very unfatteripg opin.
ion which seems to have taken hold on the
Paris public. But it is evident that the
actual facts afford sufficient ground for sus-
picion, and the circumstance that the
American press has had no censure for MIR.
Thompson's step, but has generally APP
peared to regard it as perfectly natural and
proper, may have strengthened the foreign
notion that the whole affair was in perfect
accord with American views of propriety.
1t is not pleasant picture of our habits
and tendencies to be spread abroad, but
before we complain of it we ought to ask
ourselves if it has been drawn altogether
from imagination.

SAN FRANCISCO ITEMS.

From San Francisco exchanges Of December 2Sth.l
The sum of S544, 297 40 was taken in

deputies.
The county Grand Jury presented its
final report in Department ii of the Su-
perior Court to-day.
The demand for standard dollars this
month at the Office of the Sub Treasury
in this city has been light, only $40, 900
changing hands.
The steamer City of Peking, which ar.
rived yesterday afternoon from Hongkong
and Yokohama, brought 25 cabin passen-
gers and l34 Chinese in the steerage.
OF the nine cases of supposed small pox
reported up to half-past 2 o'clock to day,
Ave werS certified as genuine cases, and all
the patients were sent to the Twenty sixth
street Hospital.
The internal revenue receipts In the San
Francisco district last week amounted to
$40, S35, making total since January lst
of s.. 887, 30, against 81, los, 643 in the
same time last year.
Dividends have been paid by local in
corporations this month TO the amount OF
MO, Ito, against al, HI, 600 Ill DeCtHiDeT
1879. The falling off is mainly due to the
mining companies. which alone show a de-
crease Of 1886, 500.
The Supreme Court yesterday reversed
the judgment and order of the Court be-
low in the case of the People VS.. George
w. Carlton, who killed Brummett, at Hol.
lister, and remanded the cause to the Su-
perior Court of San Benito county for a
new trial The defendant was indicted
for manslaughter and convicted of that
crime.
Railroad Commissioner Beerstecher, who
was shot by Anthony Fischer some two
weeks ago, got up for the first time on
Christmas, and when dressing discovered
the buckle on his left-hand suspender
greatly dinged, and he discovered that his
life was saved by it, Upon further inves-
tigation the fact was developed that the
bullet glanced off the buckle and lodged
beside his breast bone. Though TIE bullet
has been probed for it has not yet been ex-
tracted
