Left at Cane May.

A number of Dover citizens went to
Bombay Hook yesterday morning and
from thence to Cape May on the steamer
Clyde. After spending several hours
at the Capes, a portion of the party
made their way to the boat, which left
the point before the entire party arrived.
Those left behind were Mrs. William
p. Smithers and daughter Lille. Mrs.
Frank FINLEY and daughter Bessie, and
Miss Bessie Collision, all of whom
were quite surprised to find their boat
gone when they arrived at the wharf.
Nothing was left for them to do but to
remain all night or return by the Re
public. They choose the latter, how
ever, and came to Wilmington, where
the night was spent with friends, and
the party departed for Dover ON the
.. 10 rrtin this morning, with firm re-
solve never to be left again.

A despatch to the New York Sun
says: Samuel Merrick is an old and
prominent resident of Little Valley,
Cattaraugus County. He is a we'll
known stock raiser and buyer. He is
nearly seventy years of age, and is in
very poor health. On Friday afternoon
be ventured to walk to his farm, a mile
or so from the village. He remained
there until nearly nightfall, when he
started home, taking a short way
through the fields. While crossing a
pasture lot on the farm of a Mrs. Hodge,
he was alarmed to see ferocious bull
rushing toward him from the other side
of the lot. II fierce nature of the ami
nal was known to him, but he had for
gotten or did not know that it was pas
turing in that lot. Mr.. Merrick could
not possibly make his escape from the
lot be.ore the bull would be upon him.
Fortunately he was near a chestnut
tree, the lower branches of which were
only few feet from the ground. He
succeeded in climbing the tree and get
ting beyond the reach of the. bull just as
it reached the spot. Mr.. Merrick sup
posed that when the bull found that he
was out Of its reach it would 60 back to
its feeding, but the vicious animal
showed no disposition to do anything OF
the kind, but AHM&ed under the tree,
paving the ground and giving vent "
its rage by loud helloT:1gs. Nj. Mer
rick called Justify for help, but no one
heard him. 1t grew so dark that he
could see nothing around him, and only
knew the bull still held its ground by
the noise it made.
For three hours the bull kept the old
gentleman in the tree. Mr. Merrick
had grown so weak that he could with
difficulty retain his hold on the branch
es, and lie was tortured with the
thought that unless assistance arrived
soon he must fall from the tree and be
gored and trampled to death by the in
furiated brute below. Finally, when be
had given up all hope, the bull became
silent, and he could hear it walking
slowly away. Then Mr.. Merrick de-
termined to leave the tree and take his
chances at getting safely out OF the l?!'
He fell rather than climbed to the
ground. He remembers reaching the
fence and getting into the road. Then
he lost all consciousness. At II o'clock
he was found by his son lying at the
roadside. His family had been search
ing for him for hours. The shock to
his system was so great that it was a
long time before he could relate what
had happened to him. At last ac-
counts there were grave doubts of his
recovery

THE LATE LEeIsLATURE.

1t is conventional with the press, imme.
diately upon the close of legislative
session, to proceed to analyze its person
atty and its work. In the great majority
of cases such criticisms take aggressive
forms. It is supposed to be popular to
ridicule the legislative body, and to make
much of its shortcomings. Perhaps this
freedom of criticism may tend to give us
moro dignifed and competent bodies, but
we have failed to find such to have
been the result in the past. If the point
ing out of the errors of legislatures would
evolve better houses, as the years go by,
then in the past history of legislation we
should be able to find that steady improve.
ment has been made up to this time. But
this is not true. Neither as to competency
nor character has there been any
marked advance in the last twenty
years. What we had to say of
the late Legislature, as to the personnel
of the membership, the influence of the
body, and its general characteristics, to.
gether with the spirit that actuated it, we
said when both houses were in session and
early in their history. We have nothing
to add, now that the assemblage has been
dissolved and is the popular target. But
upon the work of the body as represented
in the measures presented to it, and the
bills which have received Executive ap-
proval, we shall make remark, and Judge
the tree by its fruits. Such review should
throw much light upon the spirit of the
body, and prove instructive, besides hav-
ing positive news value. 1t should,
therefore, not be hastily undertaken. In
the mean time the laws as filed with the
Secretary of State are being published in
the RECORD UNION in synoptical form,
that the people may have their attention
directed to the character of the new stat.
utes and their possible operation.

YOSEMITE.

It is matter of sincere regret that the
Governor was led to believe that it was his
duty to veto the appropriation for the con-
tinuation of the work in the Yosemite Val
ley. No State ever had nobler trust re-
posed in it than was placed in the charge
of California by the Federal Governm mi
when it coded the valley. The work be.
gun thsre was very necessary and should
have been continued. The present admins.
tration of the affairs of the valley have given
no reason TO believe that dollar would have
been squandered. That the State property
already there should be protected, and the
projected improvements carried out to
completion, was very desirable. As it is,
the valley will not disclose all its beauties
to the tourist until the new roads and
trails are constructed, and the State sooner
or later must appropriate money to that
end

MERCANTILE MAxIMs. The way to get
credit is to be punctual. The way to pre-
serve it is not to use it too much. Settle
often; have short accounts. Trust to no
mans appesrance-it is deceptive-per-
hsps assumed for the purpose of obtaining
credit. Beware of gaudy exterior. Rogues
usually dress well. The rich are plain
men. Trust him, if any one, who carries
but little on his back. Never trust him
who flies into passion on being dunned !;
make him pay quickly, if there be any
virtue in the law. Be satisfied before you
give credit that those you give it to are
safe men to be trusted. Sell your goods at
a small advance, and never misrepresent
them, or those you once deceive will be.
ware Of you the second time. Deal up.
rightly with all men, and they will repose
confidence in you, and soon become your
permanent customer. Trust no stranger.
Your goods are better than doubtful
charges. What is character worth, if you
make it cheap, crediting all alike? Agree
before hand with every man about to do
job, and if large, pat it in writing. If any
decline, then quit-or be cheated. Though
you want job ever so much, make all
sure at the onset; and in cases at all
doubtful make sure Of guarantee. Be
not afraid TO ask il it is the test of re-
sponsibihty. Ii cfense be taken, you have
escaped loss.

SACRAMENTO AND San Francisco. :
Sscramentans are for Sacramento first,
last and all the time. There is more pub
lie spirit to the square inch in the capital
city than elsewhere in California. The
unanimity with which the people voted
yesterday to tax themselves $40, 900 for o
new agricultural hall is on par with ~
general characteristics of Sacrams seq IL
zens. They are always ready t. I'D any
improvement which will benefit Sacra'
mento. Their unanimity on all that con.
Germs their own city is notorious. They
first obtained the State capital, and they
have since kept it at Sacramento by contin.
uous perseverance and enterprise. It is
the only city in the State owning its own
| waterworks. Its streets are in better
condition than any other interior city, and
its merchants confederate and, it might be
written, conspire, to take away trade from
San Francisco. 1t is a pity that San Fran.
cisco does not take lesson from the city
Of the plains. While we are sQuabbling in
the Supervisors, our streets remain almost
impossible, and at midnight are enveloped
10 Cimmerian darkness. We are emphati.
caliy in our economy penny wise and
pound foolish. Is it not time for San
Franciscans to take a new municipal de.
parture, and evince a little of the public
spirit that is drawing trade and business to
Sacramento, improving its real estate and
generally adding to its prosperity ?-[ Even.

THE CITY ELECTION.

The result of the local election on Tues.
day was a demonstration Of the uncer.
tainty OF popular expression made at the
polls. A pronounced majority in favor of
either Mr.. Knox or Mr.. Nielsen would
have been significant. But where the
voters were so evenly divided in their
views as to the proper man for the place of
trust, and as to the best policy to be pur.
sued in the conduct of city affairs, there
cannot be said to have been any settlement
of the questions that were before the PEG.
pie. If it shall be finally determined that
there has been no miscount, as is now al
legged, Mr.. Nielsen must be prepared to
carry out to the fullest all the pledges he
made. That he can do so we do not for
s moment believe; indeed, with the law
before him, he will find he has task far
beyond human possibility. The re-
suit win be another instance added
to local political history of the folly
of Convention made plans for fnanciering.
If Mr.. Nielsen shall take his seat in the
Board of Trustees he will find no opponent
in this paper simply because of differences
in political faith. We shall be ready to
commend his course in all particulars
wherein be is right and justified by the
law and wise business policy, and just
as ready to point out any erroneous steps
he may take. Criticism of his course
must not be captious. Fault-fnding is a
matter of ease, and when INDUCED in for its
own sake is unworthy good citizenship, We
trust Mr.. Nielsen and bis party, which has
full control of the legislative and executive
branches of the city government, viii be
given free field and every opportunity to
make their schemes effective; but we are
confident that they viii result as this jour.
nal predicted prior to the election.
