Resolving FOR WHEAT.-Captain Albert
Foster, who has just returned from a trip
to the upper Sacramento, reports that the
country is looking very fine on the outside of
the tules There is considerable land along
the river, he states, which is already out of
water, and upon which good crops can yet be
raised this season, should we have no further
extreme high water. Some of the wheat
fields west Of Colusa, which were overfowed
to the depth of three or four feet during the
flood, but from which the water soon drained
off, are looking very promising. Work for
late sowing, even on the recently overfowed
lands, is being actively pushed forward. DR..
Glenn, who had 5000 acres of wheat de-
stroyed by the flood on Butte Greek, has gone
on the east side of the Sacramento, crossed
over the river to this land, few days since,
80 head in teams, and supply of i'm
plements, with the purpose of resolving
{, 200 acres of this land. The acreage of
wheat, he states, will be very much less in
the upper valley than last year.
ATTENTION NEEDED.-There is an un.
healthy and loud stencil emerging from
under the walk, through the grating in
front of the shooting gallery, on the south
side of K street, between Third and Fourth,
which should receive the immediate attention
of the person owning the premises, and the
Health Officer should also see that it is not
neglected. The strength Of the unwholesome
od0r indicates that there is not only some
thing dead underneath in that vicinity, but
that the deceased has reached an exceedingly
mellow condition. If it was upon the other
side of the street, it might be charged to the
accumulation of dead letters" in the Post
office, but that won't do under the circum.
stances. Nor can it be charged to any political
results at the polls, around the corner, on
Tuesday The fact is, it's square case for
the Health Officer or Coroner, and will be a
prolific one for the doctors unless the foul
nuisance is promptly abated
Police CoURT.-The following cases were
disposed of in TIE Police Court yesterday
Lizzie Wilcox having been transferred to the
County Hospital, the charge of common

Wis was tried for embezzlement, found guilty
and sentenced to pay fine of $50 and costs
in default of payment he was sent to the

peace and will receive judgment to-day. The |
case of Baby Huston, for grand larceny, was
until to-day; that of George w. |
Maxwell, for libel, until tomorrow and An |
Lee upon charge Of assault TO murder, was
