weatherwise: ... ....
As everybody is interested 10 the weather 80
each one should qualify himself or herself to
read the sky. and to Interpret the meauiog of
the winds, sky aud clouds. g..
An intensity blue aud serene sky indicates
heavy rains and severe storms 10 from twelve
to forty eight hours. A gray, hazy sky ind-
oates con,iuuou, dry aod generally hot weather.
A southeast Riod indic,tes the existeucs of
low barometer, if not storm centre 10 the
northwest. The aspects of the sky aud clouds
will tell whether it means mischief or not
An almost immediate cessation OF rain may
be expec:ed as 5000 ss the northwest who'd
sets 10. 1t matters not what the aspects of
the sky are when the west wind ssts 10, fair

There really ara but two primary kinds of
Clouds namely (t those that float at q great
height above the earth's surface aud (2) those
that float low. Those that rat high, say from

a. follows:
Upon the general question as to the
voluntary character Of Chinese emigrs-
ton, / fnd it Official: to form satis-
factory judgment among foreigners in
China. The prevalent belief is that
70 far a. the Pacific States Of the United
States are concerned. this emigration is
mainly promoted BY the six Chinese
companies or guilds Of San Francisco,
asd that emigrants after arrival remain
in the power Of these companies and
are in fact controlled by them. I find
this belief so strong and so general,
even among persons who differ as re.
CARDS the expediency Of the emigration.
that must declare it worthy of serious
consideration, hut at the same time 1
have been unable to obtain any direct
or clear evidence TO support it. This
is possibly owing to the secresy which
cbarscteri1es all such combinations
among the Chinese. and to great power
and influence they everywhere possess.
As long As the emigrants continne to
declare throughout in the several
searching examinations to which they
are subject, not only to their willing
ness 10 go. but they 60 freely and vol
u,tsrily. it may be impossible to es

A bill has been introduced 10 the Cali.
FORMS Legislature which provides
that the foreclosure Of . mortgage
will discharge the debt for which the
mortgage wss given and release the
debtor from ell further responsibility
for the debt and the COTS therein.
In cases whore money sufficient il
realized from the foreclosure, no
real change will b effected BY the
bill. shoald it become . law; but
whore money enough to pay the
mortgage aud costs in fall il not
received. . radical change will b
effectei. Under the Law ct present in
force the debtor is held for the whole
amount; and If pigment in foil is not
secured by the foreclosure, the creditor
can svail himself Of other property bs.
longing to the debtor. until the obliga-
ton is entirely liquidated. One effect
OF such law would be TO make lenders
m,re chary. Money coald not be pro-
cured without ample security. Fore.
closures would also be less frequent.
especially 90 in hard times. when sales
must be forced and little cash is real
ICED from the disposition Of much
property. Laws tending to restrain
rash business ventures are good laws.
and il that il to be the effect OF the
Law proposed ia California. the Legis-
lature cannot do better than speedily
enact il.
