LOCAL INTELLIGENCE.
TIE ELECTION.

In the municipal election in Sacra-
mento yesterday, although closely con-
tested and earnest efforts were apparent on
all sides, there were no conflicts nor disturb
ances SO far as known, and the occasion
passed off very quietly. The challengers at
the several polling. places kept their stations
and watch with commendable zeal from the
time the polls were opened until shutdown.
There were few attempts to gain by illegal
votes, but these were probably nearly, if not
quite all detected, and the fraud intended
thus prevented. In the First Ward one man
was presented by a hacker and it is claimed,
attempted to vote i'm the name of a
person who is dead, but whose name
is still upon the Great Register
It was stated last evening that both parties
to the transaction would be prosecuted. Two
or three attempts were made at repeating
or at least voting in other wards from which
the parties resided, but no arrests were known
to have baen made.
The total vote cast in the several precirct
yesterday was as follows Precinct l, 622;
precinct 2, 344; precinct q, 563; precinct5,
1863; precinct 81, 729; precinct 4. $50; pre-
cinct 4l, sos; sum total, 3693. This is but
little over three-fourths Of the vote cast at
the last Presidential election, when the total
vote of the city was $50.
The candidates and their classification by
ticket were as follows For First Trustee
John O. Brown, Citizens and Democratic;
Christopher Green, Republican and Green

PREHISTORIC MAN.-The exploration of
the remains of prehistoric man. says the
Mature, is being actively carried out in
Russia. We have already noticed con-
tribution to this subject by NJ. Mereshkov-
sky, published in the Izoestia of the Rus
sian Geographical Society, being report
upon the exploration of caverns and rock
shelters in the Crimea, in the neighborhood
of the Tchatyrdagh Mountain. A great
cavern, l45 feet wide and IS feet deep. was
explored close by the Suren town, and NJ
Mereshkovsky found there the remains Of
prehistoric workshop for the manufacture
of stone implements, the whole belonging
to two distinct periods. The paper by NJ
Mereshkovsky, as published in the IzUeStia,
is accompanied with four tables of drawings
of stone Implements.

SAN Francisco MONEY MARKET.-The
returns show that there has been an active
demand for money to go abroad in the past
two months. Some of this was undoubtedly
shipped away from the State to avoid the
payment of 2@ per cent. tax. 1t will be
brought back when needed. The New York
money market having resumed its normal
condition, rates of exchange have fallen back
to old figures. There was something Of a
furry ia the silver market in London on the
7th, owing to an increase in the tenders of
Council bills. The price has since recovered,
and there il now an upward tendency. New
York exchange is quoted at I per cent. for
mail and : per cent. for kilograms. London
exchange is quoted at 49I@49s for bank bills
and 50@504 for commercial bills. Refined
silver is quoted at 13914 per cent. discount.
Mexican dollars are nominal at 90@904c.
apiece. Rates for money are the same as they
have been for months.-[S. +. Bulletin,

This table shows the remarkable difference
of 50 deaths between the two years quoted,
and in favor of last year. 1t is necessary,
however, to deduct from this number in ex
cess % deaths of patients and inmates at the
County Hospital during the time it occupied
the Agricultural Society's Pavilion in the
months of March, April, May June and
July, 1879 The numbers for these months
in the column 1880 are marked by an
asterisk and the number of deaths occurring
in the County Hospital during the respective
months is shown in the column to the right of
the total numbers. These % deaths, occur
ring in the city, were necessarily reported
among city deaths, while in reality they did
not belong to the proper mortality of the
city.
After deducting these % deaths, we have
remaining an excess of 60 over the number
occurring during the past year, or nearly one
sixth of the whole number.
Taking the population of the city as shown
by the United States census of 1880, as
81, 500, we have death rate per 1000 Of
II II for last year, while that of the previ-
GUS year amounts to 1925. Moreover, ac-
cording to the report Of the State Board of
Health for the year ending June, 1880. the
mortality in 1873 was IN excess even OF that
of 1879 so.
LEADING CAUSES OF MORTALITY.
On examining in detail the mortality re-
ports of the past year, we 6nd that 81 deaths
are certified as caused by pulmonary con-
sumption, 81 by pneumonia, % by feyers,
characterized as typhoid. typho-malarial, re
mittent and congestive; we find, moreover,
scarlet fever, diphtheris, measles, Group,
whooping cough and cholera infantum, to-
gether. credited with 26 deaths; while acci-
dents, including suicide, caused %. The ap-
parentlv large number of 6S are arranged
under the head unknown /" and lastly, the
number OF deaths uRder years is shown to
be 81, or nearly a per cent of the whole
number.
Il may not be out of place here to say that
about 95 per cent. of the deaths marked "un-
known are those of Chinese. The Chinese
physicians, besides being averse to signing
document, which they perhaps do not fully
comprehend, are not acquainted with our
nosological terminoloey, and hence they were
formerly in the habit of returning all the
deaths Of their people as caused by consump.
ton, whether the disease of which they died
bore any likeness to phthisis or not. This
practice, however, made bad and untrue
showing for the healthfulness of the city,
and in consequence, they are now buried un-
der a special certificate intended for those
who have died without the attendance of a
physician, but whose death appears to be
