The SACK OF LIMA.

The latest account of the sack of Lima
puts quite new face upon the affair. 1t
is now stated that in the final battle out
side the city the Peruvians really defeated
the Chileans, and that if they had followed
up their advantage they might have routed
them completely. But President Pierola
was completely exhausted physically, and
sank into deep sleep on the field of battle.
Immediately upon this all his officers ap-
pear to have become brigands, without
patriotism or honor, and to have melted
their men to pillage Lima in advance of the
advent of the enemy So while Pierola
was sleeping these rascals led their troops
back to the city, and commenced to sack it
deliberately, even numbering those who re-
sisted them. The quality of these Peru.
Wan soldiers is shown in the statement
that when a small body of foreigners organ.
lied sort of vigilance committee, the great
body of plunderers instantly disappeared.
Certainly it is not to be wondered at that
with such wretched material for officers
poor President Pierola should have failed
to rescue his country from the invaders,
and after such an experience of Peruvian
patriotism it is difficult to sympathize with
the people in their subsection.

will disappear, and then her levees will
become absurd. The other is that unless
the Sacramento river is corrected and its
channel deepened, no levee, however high
and thick, will afford US absolute protec-
ton. Let the filling of the river bed go on
as it has been doing for the past ten years,
and time must come when the highest
levees we can build will fail to keep out
the food waters. Either of these objec-
lions, taken singly, would be fatal to the
insular policy referred to, but both together
demonstrate its utter unreasonableness.
Sacramento is not self-sustaining. She
cannot live without surrounding popula-
ton. Whatever tends to depopulate the
valley outside of her limits tends to pau
perize her. And policy which takes no
account of anything outside the city linn
its must not only ALLEVIATE the good will of
the neighbors upon whom we are depend.
emit, but by depriving them of our aid in
protecting themselves, force them to aban-
don their lands. In fact, the programme
referred to is narrow and shortsighted
one, and could only produce injury to this
community. Our lot is cast in with that
of our neighbors, and we cannot adopt an
exclusive policy save at the risk of mutual

PARNELL.

ParnelFs recent address does not appear
to have done him or his cause any good.
1t is said to have alienated all the English
Liberals, all the French Liberals, and a
good many Irish Liberals. His intimation
that he relied upon the efforts of his coun-
trymen in the United States has put an
aspect upon the situation which must rem
der success hopeless, while his practical
abandonment of constitutional methods
must arouse against him the immense ma
jority who will have nothing to do with
revolutionary experiments. His visits to
Paris recently have created a strong distrust
OF his intentions In Ireland, where it is be-
ginning to be suspected that he thinks
more of his personal safety than of the
cause he represents. His impracticable
and visionary suggestions make intelligent
men hopeless of his leadership, and alto
gether his manifesto has been productive
of very much more satisfaction to his en-
emies than to his friends. Whether he is
losing his head, or whether he never had
head to lose, matters comparatively lit
tie; it is apparent that he is ceasing to
command the implicit confidence of his
party, and that symptom is the prelude to
collapse,

TIE FUNDING BILL.

There is an old but wise proverb,
'Never holloa till you are out of the
woods" and this proverb is just now ap-
picable to the supporters of the new re-
funding bill. They cannot distinguish
between the enactment of law and the
success of its operation. They Jump to
the conclusion that its passage means
the carrying out of its provisions. OF
course this is an absurd mistake. The re-.
funding bill has yet to be tested, and no
one can say whether it will be a success or
failure until it has been tested. Already
many of the National Banks are fastening
to surrender their circulation rather than
accept the provisions of the bill, and
should this movement become general the
Government would discover that it had
lost one of its chief instrumentalities for
floating the bonds. If the National Banks
refuse to take them it is not very prob.
able that they will be snapped up by the
general public, and until it is known what
the majority of the National Banks intend
to do it is useless to speculate upon the
outcome of the bill.

VIE sAcRAMgNTo WEEKLY UNION /"

THE SACRAMENTO WEEKLY UNION. ="
Was established in 1851, and has been con-
tinuously published ever since. Unlike the
old-time weeklies, it is issued twice each
week in eight-page parts, making up a weekly
issue of sixteen pages. The day of the old
style weekly news journal has gone by. Such
ancient methods no longer meet the demands
of the age. The WEEKLY UNION, moving
with the advance systems, is by its SEM
weekly issue able to keep pace with the news
Of the day, and give its readers the news
oftener, fresher and with closer approach to
the very latest than is possible to the journal
issuing but once each week. The WEEKLY
UNION is issued from the office of the DAILY
RECORD UNION, at Sacramento, the capital
of California It is news, business and fam
lily journal, and enjoys larger and more
widely distributed circulation than any
weekly paper on the Pacific slope. Its edi-
torial department moves upon the highest
plane and in the front rank of advanced
thought. For vigor of utterance, holiness of
position, scholarly finish and lucidity Of idea,
its editorial department has no peer in the
country.
Its agricultural department, specially pre-
pared for the paper, is edited from the stand
point of the highest intelligence, longest ex-
perience, and most practical knowledge in
agriculture, and at once commends itself to
the farmer, viticulturist and horticulturist as
the best and most desirable local authority,
THE WEEKLY UNION in its literary depart
ment presents original stories command
ing the best literary talent among
writers in Europe and America. 1t
presents departments for the household,
the studio, the laboratory, the garden,
and the puzzler, and gives the latest news of
discovery and progress in the mechanic arts,
science, engineering, decorative art, music,
etc. 1t also has regular departments of re-
view of the latest publications of the day

WHAT WE MAY EXPECT FROM CON-
CRBSS.


Our Washington dispatches of yesterday
record the progress of our delegation in OBJ
tanning aid from Congress for the improve
ment of our rivers. Senator Farley has
introduced an amendment to the River and
Harbor bill appropriating $3.50, 600 for the
construction of storage reservoirs for the
mining debris, and for further investigation
of the question in accordance with the re-
port of Colonel Mendell. But our Wash
ington reporter observes that this amend
ment has no chance OF being adopted. He
says: 1.-The present time is especially
unpropitious for efforts to obtain Con-
gressional action on this subject, while
the California Legislature is discussing
"the advisability of repeating the State
"debris law, and while the utility of past
expenditures is seriously questioned.
g But aside from these considerations it is
''evident to every intelligent observer in
Z" Washington that Congress is not likely at
"any time TO grant aid for the protection of
g one portion of the people of California
" from the results of the lawful operations
of some other portion of its population,
"and it is extremely similar to the de-
''mands of certain Southern States that
"the General Government shall build
"levees along the Mississippi river for the
protection and benefit of the contiguous
''lowlands, the property of private owners. 5"
It's evident that the writer of the above
dispatch begs the whole question in assum-
ing that the deposit of debris in the
streams is lawful operation, but it is
none the less apparent that up to the pres
ent time there exists no sentiment in Con-
gress favorable to the recognition of the
claims of this State for aid and adequate
relief in the premises. The probability
is that no more than $50, 600, the sum
inserted by the House in the river and
harbor bill, will be appropriated for the
Sacramento river, and of course such an
amount would be practically useless. 1t is,
in fact, perfectly clear that it is out of the
question to trust to Congress in this mat
ter and that if the State should abandon
the rivers, nothing at all will be done for
them. There should therefore be no
divided counsels, but the inhabitants of
the Sacramento valley should unite in de-
manding the maintenance of the debris bill
as a sine qua non, and this whether the
Legislature can or cannot be induced to do
anything towards checking or regulating or
stopping hydraulic mining. The one great
necessity of the hour is to avert
the danger of being left without any
remedy whatever. and this should be the
prime consideration until the close of
the session.

LEvEEs AND RIVERS.

There are some people who think that
the best course for Sacramento would be to
spend all the money she can afford upon
her own levees, and leave the rest of the
valley to take care of itself. There are at
least two fatal objections to this policy.
One is that if the rest of the valley is left
to destruction, the trade of Sacramento
