THE PAl0MAS MINING DISTRICT.
Rich Returns from Fifteen Days
Sluicing.

Mr.. w. w. Jenkins yesterday brought
to the HERALD office sack of coarse
gold and small nuggets amounting to
seventy.one ounces, valued at 81 1860,
the result of fifteen days labor by
eight men. This gold was washed from
bank in the Palomas placer district,
through flume from the Castequi canon,
under pressure of only 35 feet. The
gravel washed consisted OF 500 yards,
and yielded at the rate of dollar and
seventy cents per yard. Although this
fine yield was first class, Mr.. Jenkins
has removed his hydraulic works further
down stream, where the pressure is So
feet, and the pay gravel 90 feet in depth
instead of fifteen feet, as in the other
place. The placer promises to be one of
great richness.
A singular thing about the gravel
from which the above rich returns were
made, was, that it was seemingly so poor
in quality that in washing by the print.
tive pan process not more than two or
three cents worth of the precious metal
could be obtained to the pan. At the
new point to which the sluice has been
removed, the returns promise to be much
richer, as high as -four bits" having
been obtained from pan of the earth
The Palomas Company, under the
superintendent of Mr.. Jenkins, ARE

as soon the proposed Improvements are
completed astonishing results may be
looked for. One mile and three quarters
of ditch is now finished and the line sur.
veyed for four miles more; the work on

in that section, has been temporarily
suspended. When this additional ditch

OUR EXPORTS.

1t is certainly gratifying to all true
Americans TO know that OF late years
our exports have largely exceeded our
imports, not alone in such staple ar
ticies as wheat and beef, but in almost
every branch Of industry. Ten years
ago nearly all the perfumery and toilet
articles used in this country were i'm
ported from Europe; today we not only
manufacture for ourselves, but are large
exporters to South America, China,
Japan and the Colonies. The immense
growth of this particular industry on
the Pacific Coast is simply astonishing.

makers in the world, last year exported

adopted, which will be persevered in
until all danger is past. We have had
warm weather for the last week, which
has rendered the malady less virulent,
and also acts as barrier against its

warm for another week the disease,
which, at one time looked threatening,
will be entirely exterminated.

Moving on the Railway Company's
Works-suit for a Large Sum OF
Money Brought by the state OF
California;

SAN FRANCISCO, March LA suit was
to-day filed in the Superior Court by the
State Of California against the Central
Pacific Railroad Company. to recover
81 ,042, 800, with legal interest. The
complaint states that in 1854 an act was
passed by the State legislature in aid Of
the construction OF that railroad, and to
secure the use of the same to the State
for military purposes. The Act states
that the aid which had been granted by
tho United States was insufficient to
complete the road and, in view OF the
then state Of war, and Of the necessity
for the completion OF the road to repel
invasion, the State authorized the rail-
road to issue its bonds, the interest OF
which Is made payable at the State
Treasury, the bonds to be secured by
one or more mortgages on the railroad.
In return, the railroad shall transport, free
OF charge, all public messengers, convicts,
materials for the State Capitol building,
articles for exhibition at the State fairs,
State troops going to the seat Of war,
etc. 1t also provided that the railroad
shall, within ninety days from the re-
ceipt OF the patent from the United
States, convey to this State, in fee sim
pie, the south half of section No. 10,
township No. II, with all the granite
and quarries thereon. The provisions
Of the Act were accepted by the railroad
on May 4th, 1864, the acceptance being
signed by Leland Stanford and T.. II.
Miller. The complaint states that Cali.
fornia has performed its part OF the con
tract and has paid the interest on fifteen
hundred one thousand dollar bonds, to
the amount of 81, 912, 500,. and that the
agreement. by the company's refusing to
transport passengers, and its never hav-
ing applied for or received patent for
the land mentioned, has been nullified.

THERE is o great deal Of talk in Cali
fornia about the necessity of maintain.
ing the law. II is most vociferous about
the time some scoundrel, like the hero
Of the late San Bernardino murder, is in
danger of expiating his infamous crimes
By his life, at the hands OF impromptu
ministrants Of justice. 1t is true that,
II the law were in California what It
ought to be, this cry would have much
of responsibility to recommend II. But
how is II when the law is so often really
the handmaiden Of crime, and when
Judge and jury alike appear to be the
condoners OF red handed murder2 In
all seriousness we ask the question as
to whether Judge and jury, which seem
to apply themselves to withdrawing
red-handed blood outlines, are not in.
exprcssibly more reprehensible than q
mob which, in its honest indignation,
seeks to administer rude and peremp-
tory Justice upon the malefactor while
his crimeis fresh, While California has
been treated, at times, to the spectacle
Of violent men overriding the law, and
sometimes visiting punishment upon the
innocent, this experience is not nearly
80 disheartening as that in which re-
preventative citizens apply themselves
to multiplying both the spirit of law and
Justice. A thousand times over we would
prefer the extempore and sometimes
misdirectod efforts Of n vigilance com
mittec to the languid movements OF en-
ervated courts, which have in truth be-
come the mere channels Of chieane, not
through the fault of the judges, who are
generally able and incoruptible men,
but through tho morbid sympathios OF
one or more jurors, who accomplish that
feat which has been so often chronicled,
in every state and county Of the Union,
known as changing the jury"

To us it seems that, in view of the
subtlety of the lawyers, and the morbid
sympathies of the eleventh or twelfth
juryman, no possibility of miscarriage
of justice should be entertained in the
case of this San Bernardino misoreant.
He should be accorded short shrift.
Hanging is entirely too good for him.
A mob of honest men, who despise
ehicane and namby -pambyism, ought to
put the wretch on a hurdle, with his
head hanging down, drag him out to
the scene of his ineffable crime, and
either hang or burn him. Neither the
State nor the county should be put to a
dollar of expense in a case like this.
We shall probably be told that we are
not law abiding. In truth, we are afraid
that we are not. As soon as two out of
three of the red handed tribe in Califor.
mia get their deserts at the hands of the
courts, without an infinite multiplca-
ton of the laws delays contem-
plated by Hamlet in his so.
liloquy, we shall revise our declaration,
and retire within the pale of a Judi,
cature which shall have demonstrated
some right to be respected. Until then
we shall fearlessly express the opinion
that such incarnate fends as the muir.
derer of the O'Brian woman should be
hailed outside of prison bars and dealt
with summarily by the people who in
their collective majesty, embody good
deal of genuine law.

Some years ago Col, Phil Roach, who
is nothing if not gallant, introduced into
the Senate of California, and had enact.
ed into law, a statute prescribing the
whipping post to wife-beaters and men
who beat woman without regard to
the marital relation. We have never
heard of the enforcement of this statute
in a single instance, although the beat.
ing of wife and woman has gone on un.
interruptedly ever since its enactment.
Why is this: Why should not n gentle
and chivalrous intercourse between the
sexes be encouraged by public senti.
ment which should sternly emphasize
its disapproval of any departures from
the proper gallant and wholesome ie.
gime.
