WHEAT TRANSFORMATIONS.

Phe annual yield of wheat in Califor-
MIA has increased from 20, 0e0,OO bushels
in 1868 to about $4,000, 900 bushels in
1881. The high freights which have
ruled on wheat between San Francisco
and Liverpool, during this time, taken IN
connection with the decrease in yield
owing to over cropping land, has
made the wheat crop a very uncertain
one on the Pacific coast. The cost to
shin bushel of wheat from San Francis
co to Liverpool has fiuctuated during the
last ten years from twenty-four to seventy
cents. the latter figure having been
reached in 1872. The new scheme
to ship by rail TO st. LOUIS and thence by
barge lines to New Orleans is but shad-
ow. which coming competition between
the Union and Central Pacific and the
Southern Pacific lines, has cast before
hand. II is estimated that the surplus
wheat crop of California and Oregon will
within ten years amount to OO,OOO,OOo
bushels. The transportation oh this
wheat would require Zoo,ooo, cars Will
a capacity of fifteen tons each.
Mr.. Huntington promises to ship this
wheat across the continent and thence to
Europe at lower rate than it can be
shipped to Liverpool direct from San
Francisco, with saving in time OF at
least ninety days. To do this he would
have to carry wheat to New Orleans 1or
about fourteen cents bushel, in order
to compete with water lines carry
ing at the low rate OF elght
dollars ton from San Francisco
To do this will put to the test the long
haul theory, besides necessltating re-
duction on car rates east of from four to
six hundred per cent. on present rates
But with cars having capacity OF twenty
tons instead of twelve and fifteen, MIR.
Huntington will be able to give the long
haul theory fair trial.

Perhaps the Mule Ate HIM.
From the Macon Telegraph


Late in the afternoon of Friday the
family of Mr.. William Lowe, who lives
off and near the Clinton road, near East
Macon, Ca, noticed negro man liesurely
driving team of a horse and mule
hitched to a wagon. AS he seemed to be
drunk, and was driving off the main
road, he was yelled at and told he was
going in the wrong direction. He an
swered back that he guessed he knew
where he was going, and disappeared from
view. Yesterday morning Mr.. Lowe, in
company with his cousin, MIR. Morton
Hardin, were out in the woods near the
house, and came across the wagon of the
negro who had been hailed the evening
before. The negro was missing, and the
horse was dead, having been ripped open.

had also eaten the collar on the horse.
Near by was hat, pair Of shoes and one

made accordingly. AS the bonds would be alb
sorbed by the banks it would be striking a
blow at the banks to fix an earlier period for
redemption and payment than ten years and
thirty years respectively. Bayard spoke of the
exceptionally favorable condition of the gov
eminent with reference to its currency at this
time, and the unquestioned confidence of the
holders in the security of bonds. lie was
averse to assuming any risk that would tend
to disturb this sense of security, even for the
sake of an apparent reduction of one-half of
one per cent. in interest. He would say let
well enough alone. Let the business of the
country flow as it safely can flow under our
present system of currency notes.
The amendments to the bill reported by the
committee were agreed to.
Senator Beck briefly opposed McPherson'5
amendment, observing it would put it out Of
the power of congress to tax the people to pay
the principal of the debt until later period.
Senator McPherson-That is exactly the

Senator Beck-That is exactly what I do not
want. Referring to the presidents veto of
last session, he said the 3 per cent. bill was
vetoed by the banks. and the president showed
his-he was about to say imbecility-in
allowing himself to be dictated to by the
banks.
Senator Vest here secured the floor, but the
senate went into executive session, and soon
afterwards adjourned.

WOnldn Suffrage.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 9.-The woman suffrage
question assumed a new phase in the senate
to-day, which may indicate that it is to beome
live issue in American politics. On Bayard's
amendment, to refer the Hoar resolution to
create @ standing committee on woman suf-
frage, to the ju dietary committee, the Repub-
icans voted "no" unanimously, and the Dem
ocrats voted "aye." Senator Davis, of Illinois,
voted with the Republicans, and the question
thus became one OF politics, as far as the crea-
ton of this committee is concerned, the Re-
publicans supporting the resolution and the
Democrats opposing it. The woman's rights
advocates are feeling very much encouraged
at this attitude. Comforting the right of snf-
frage on women is bound to be one of the
most important political issues from this out,
and the Republicans in planting themselves
upon it, have assured their party control of
the country for twenty years to come. There
are some Republican senator's, however, who
are not yet ready to stand upon the woman
suffrage platform. They say they favor the
creation of a standing committee to take cog
nlzance of all matter pertaining to the ques-
ton of woman's rights, because women are
entitled to hearing, and that is the only way
of assuring their petitions consideration. But
if the question was to confer suffrage upon
women, they would not be ready to vote in Its
favor just yet.

As the remarks OF Gov. Marshall proceeded,
Gov. Pillsbury's face was the reflex of the diff
perplexity, surprise and heartfelt qualification
at the manifestation so touchingly expressed
OF goodwill toward him personally. Rising
to respond it was some time before he could
control his voice sufficiently to articulate.
But finally temporarily mastering his emotions
he said in substance that he
was more than surprised at the
very handsome presentation and deeply
grateful for the kindly expressions OF good
will to him personally which had accompanied
it. During the years of his connection with
the executive department of the state govern
ment, his intercourse with his associate Off
Gals and all others about the state house, had
been uniformly agreeable and pleasant, the re.
membrance of which he should cherish to his
dying day. He was proud, he said, to accept
the presentation, and he should place it inshis
library, where it should always remain to re,
mind him of the tried end true friends from
whom he had just severed his official connec-
ton. The governor then concluded by ask.
ing one and all to accept his grateful thanks
for their very handsome and highly appre-
ciated testimonial.
Every word of the governors remarks was
uttered in trembling voice, and several
*imes he was forced to cease speaking to con
quer his emotion. The reporter has witnessed
many surprise presentations, but never
before did he witLess SO genuine surprise ,an(
such heartfelt feeling evinced on the part Of
the recipient of the testimonial, and those who
made the presentation as on this occasion. Il
was an occasion that will keep warm in Gov
Pillsbury's heart until it's pulsations are stop
ped in death.
The testimonial consists of a full set O

umes in all, including index, elegantly bount
in Russia, and cost nearly $500.

a Genuine Presentation surprise.


Shortly after the Inauguration ceremonies,
and Gov. Pillsbury had become private citi-
zen, the several State officials and employees
about the capita, land few invited spectators
assembled in the supreme court room to wit,
ness presentation to Gov. Pills5ury by his

A. R. McGill, state insurance COM
missioner, sought out Gov. Pillsbury,

OILS desired to see him IN the court room upon
some matter upon which he had before been
consulted, secured his presence in the room
without exciting his suspicion. AS he stepped
inside, however, and saw all his old associates

employees about the building assembled,
shade of perplexity swept over
his countenance. This look of
perplexity increased, when, without
loss of time, ex-Gov. Marshall, addressing him
by name, and speaking in most earnest and
feeling manner, made the presentation in the
following words:
Governor Pillsbury: A few minutes ago,

signed to your worthy successor the high
trust which thrice the people committed to

1t appears that the exports from New Or

hibited an increase of 4,650,119 bushels as

In conclusion, your committee would state,

cupy the position that New York occupied as

figures of freight rates and the very lowest
saving would be, between rail and river, eight
cents Per bushel; and on basis OF 40, 10000
Of a wheat crop for our state and we have

crop and saving to the ten states bordering
on the Mississippi river, on the same basis
10000, 900 bushels Of wheat-Gt matters not
If it is cotton, tobacco, corn or wheat, as the
same saving would be made on these several
products we would have a saving on one
crop of $50, 100000. 1t does not follow that
the whole of the products of these several
states would have to 60 by river to make
these savings. With good navigation, rail-
roads would be compelled to carry for
