THE ROBBERY OF THE BACHELOR CLUB
RooM.-The Mayor had before him this
morning Dave Dcvaughap, white, and Daft
ney Grady, colorcd, charged with robbng
the Bachelors Club room, on King street.
Devaughan, who is Il boy only Is years of
age, was arrested in Washington yesterday.
10 which city he had fled after learning that
u warrant was out for him. by officer James
Smith. He made Il statement virtually adj
hitting the robbery, and said that he had
heard a colorcd boy named George Carter
say that he had stolen cigars from the club
room. The Mayor discharged Grady, there
being no evidence against him, with the
warning that if he was again caught loung-
ing in the neighborhood Of the club room
with the crowd Of small boys who assem-
bic in that locality for the purpose Of
gambling in vacant rooms and alleys
he would have him arrested and sent to the
chain gang as Il vaSrant. In DeNaughan's
case the Mayor reserved his decision, stating
that he did not wish TO send so small boy
to Jail if he could avoid it. In the course Of
the examination several members of the
Bachelors Club stated that it was impoSSi-
BILE to keep anything in the room that could
be carried away that the boys who assem-
bic in the Railways in the building on Sun
day for the purpose of gambling had been
robbing the room for months past and this
was the first time any one of the thieves had
been caught.

The RIVER FRoNT-The river front
around this city never presented better
appearance. New wharvcs have been built,
and old wharves have been improved, and
view from the steamers passing up and
down the river shows great change during
the past year. A gentleman, upon arriving
here from Washington this morning, re-
marked that, looking from the steamer. he
was much encouraged by the improvements
nc noticed. There are now at this port ten
large vessels including two barks, some OF
them loading coal for Northern ports. and
some from Nova Scotia unloading plaster.
One of the barks is loading cooperage for
Cuba. at Messrs F. \. Reed & Co.'S wharf

DISCHARGED. -- Phcnix Evans, colorcd
locked up yesterday on suspicion of being a
lunatic, was to-day, after an examination by
physician, discharged, as it was discovered
that he was only suffering from a temporary
sickness. Evans case is peculiar one.
He went cunning few days ago, and rs he
was raising the gun to his shoulder the
weapon prematurely exploded near his ear,
since which time he has been in sort of
bewildercd state, suffering greatly from
what lie describes as ringing in the head.
The people of the neighborhood in which
he lives, noticing his peculiar conduct, con-
GUIDED that he was insane, and fearing that
he would injure himself or some one else,
applied to the Mayor to have him locked up.

DENoUNcING THE PRESENT FoLLrEs OF
FEMININE DRESS. London recently a

advantage OF hearing a lady lecture in

the present style Of womens dress. The
lecturer was young, pretty. and charming.
She held forth on the atrocity of pinched-
In waist. Her own was excruciatingly tight.
She revIled trimmings. Her gown was
covered with hutings, frillings, furbelows,
and founces. She denounced tight sleeves.
Her own were so concise that the lines of
her very graceful arms were by no means
lost on the beholder. She advocated re-
form in the matter of pointed toes, but her
small patent leather shoes could not have
measured an inch across the extreme tip.
She urged upon her sister women resistance
to the invading crinoline, but had herself
so far yielded to its attack as TO exhibit 8
very pronounced crinolette. When mildly
reproached by an advanced lady with
her inconsistencies, the fair lecturer cast
down her eyes with the air of Christian
martyr and said 81 am obliged to obey

The Fourth Cutting

Alfalfa is being cut the fourth time all
alsng the Sacramento, American and other
rivers in this State where good stand was
carried through the winter. We have seen
meadows turn off this season four crops that
would average two and half tons to the
acre, making ten tons per acre for the season.
These same meadows afforded good feed from
February 1st to March LIST, in the spring be-
fore the hay was allowed to begin to grow, and
they viii furnish good feed from the present
time till frost comes, probably till December
1st. Alfalfa hay baled is how worth in this
city 81 per ton. The cost of production,
counting interest on capital, labor, etc. is
ab ut IS per ton, delivered in In city baled.
This gives the producer about 81 per ton
clear or net profit, or $40 per acre for his
land. All the river bottom lands
are good for about ten tons per
aunum, provided the water can be kept
off of them during the winter and spring.
Water, however, staining on the meadows
from ten days to two weeks kills all alfalfa
roots and renders new sowing necessary.
The first seasons crops. after seeding in the
spring, are necessarily light, and afford but
little OF no profit to the owner. With the
certainty Of annual crops Of alfalfa without
annual seeding the river lands would be
worth $500 an acre. With the present un.
certainty they have no standard value.

An Unexpected yield ard Good Prices

From nearly all quarters we hear of an I'M
expected good crop of wheat. Contrary to
all expectations, California will produce more
wheat this season than last. This is indeed
good year for California farmers, and they
ought certainly to pay up large share of
their debts. Wheat, 81 20 per Genital; bar
ley, 81 25, and oats and corn in proportion !;
hops. 80 cents pound. Butter has not been
lower than % cents, and will probably go to
40 or 80 during the coming winter. Grapes
and fruits Of every description besr good
prices, aud ell can be SOLD. Meats of all
kinds are high and scarce, and are likely to
be for some time in the future. In fact every
product of the farm rules high. and the yield
has been generally good.
