THE IMMIGRATION MOVEMENT.

Encouraging results are being reaped
thus carly from the laborsrrof the Northern
California Immigration Association 1t is
becoming every day more apparent that
the organization is the most practical and
rapid means possible to use for settling up
the Sacramento valley The information
it disseminates is received as authoritative
by people abroad, and the class of new
corners it is inducing to come in and make
homes among us is of the best order. 1t is
but little more than year since the move
ment for systematized effort in this direc-
ton began, and already the fruits are being
reaped, and that in the face of dull sea
son and 4 partial failure of crops We may
reasonably expect greater results the COM
ing year, but the Association should receive
the undivided support of the people, and
the county or subsidiary societies should
be especially active. Labor through these
agencies is certain to prove speedily profit
able to all the central and northern section
Of the State.

Australian News.

BY the steamer Zealandia, which arrived
at San Francisco Saturday, we have ad-
vices from Sidney, n. S. W, to July 10Th :
The return of the Australian Contingent
from service in the Soudan occasioned con-
siderable demonstration, including ban
quets given by the Ministry and by colo
NAL officers.
Fourth of July was handsomely cele-
brated by the American residents.
Recent rains have greatly improved agri
cultural and grazing prospects.
a company was recently formed to pros
pect for gold in New Guinea prompted by
the production of very valuable nugget
alleged to have been discovered in the Flv
River Valley. Evidence is now brought
forward that the nugget was of Australian
gold, and the expedition is DELAYED pending
further investigation. The evidence is
strong that grand swindle was intended.
South Australia is agitating the prohibit

Near Derby, in the Kimberly district of
Western Australia, two men, Charles Stem

THE MEETING TONIGHT.

The meeting of citizens, called for to-
night at the suggestion of the Governor of
the State, and to be held in the capitol
building, should be largely attended The
purpose is to consider the feasibility of
creating fund with which to erect stat
uary or monumental memorial in Capitol
Park in honor OF the great military chief
tain whom the nation has Just buried The
cities of California are sadly deficient of
monumental works in their parks The
country is new, however, and there is
every excuse for the absence of those ar
chitectural memorial structures that add
so greatly TO the attractions of the cities of
New York, Washington, Boston, Balti-
more, Philadelphia, Springfield CHI, In
dianapolis Columbus, Albany and other
places. But the period has arrived when
more attention will be given to these mat
tiers in California, and when our parks,
chief street-crossings and public places will
be graeed with marble and bronze statuarv
and monumental shafts. 1t is eminentlv
fitting that at the capital of the State, and
beneath the shadow of that splendid pile,
the State Capitol, there should he erected
monument to the memory of Grant, and
that 1t should be crowned by statuary. The
people Of this city are able, and should
raise the means. They can take a fairly
heightened time in which to do it. but
the chiefest effort should be made now,
while the sentiment of the hour
is quick to respond We can have mon
umental structure of almost any character
We choose. 1t depends wholly upon the
sum raised. But it should be borne in
mind that it is not the magnitude of the
sum that will be expended that will give
character to the bronze or marble we NAV
conclude to set up. The spirit of the Civ
ing by the people and the promptness of
their action will give it more character
than will twice the sum expended by the
Legislature. We should proceed with the
proposed work irrespective of the beliefs
or disbeliefs as to legislative aid. We
should organize Monument Association
at the meeting tonight, and set it at work
at once. Every man and woman in Sacra-
mento ought to become member of il.
and by a small contribution for member
ship make up very speedily the sum
needed, For this membership certif-
Gates can be issued that will possess
no mean value. This is one plan-similar
to plans successful in other cases,
But there are others to be suggested, such
as direct contributions. festival benefits
and solicitations from the wealthy, etc
But what viii give greatest importance
to the work and most ennoble ii, will be
some scheme by which each one of all the
people can give 4 small sum and the testi-
monial thus be made the peoples offering.
Let there be large meeting tonight of
men and women, and let there be such ae-
ton as shall place Sacramento first among
the cities and capitals of the States to
erect Grant memorial monument. Its
corner stone should be laid before the wear
is ended, upon the spot where but few
wears ago 5000 children of Sacramento
poured floral tributes from their arms at
the feet of General Grant.

Advices from Seoul relate that Mr..

with him to the Corean Capital number
of Russian officers and soldiers. with the
view of setting them at work to discipline
the Corean army. TheCorean Government
declined to employ them, having already
made arrangements to employ skilled
officers from the United States for that
purpose. This resulted in a breach of good
feeling between the parties, which at one
time threatened to produce hostilities,

RAT sroRY.-The Nevada CITY Ira

RAT SToRY.-The Nevada City Tran
script Of August 18th presents the following;
The other day nest containing five
young rats that had not yet got their eyes
open was found in the wheat bin of a
Nevada City grocery store. The clerk
lifted the little fellows out and put them
on top of barrel. They became restless
and noisy, so to quiet them he arranged
them in a circle and put into the mouth of
each of them the tail of one of its
relatives. They Immediately caught
on" and fell to sucking as industriously
and with rs much relish as though they
were at the maternal fount of supply. 1t
was an amusing spectacle, and scores of
citizens dopped in 10 laugh at it.

NEARLY one hundred citizens of Los
Angeles have given their names to COM
mittee favoring the organization of Gre
nation Association there, and the imme-
date erection of crematory. They are.
we learn, representative men. In this Los
Angeles testifes to an advanced sentiment
prevailing in her midst Sacramento
more than Los Angeles, needs such SAM
tary reform. Her situation is such that
cremation should be specially favored BY
her people, and burial discarded. Papers
have been sent here from San Francisco to
secure subscriptions to the capital stock of
the First Cremation Society in that city,
but crematory is more needed here than
there, and there should be enough here
who believe in the process to insure the
Inauguration of it in this valley, if for no
other than sanitary reasons.

The Chicago Times says General Sheri-
dan has called the Governor of Kansas an
ass. This is the only authority we have
for the statement, but if it is not true. it
might well be so. The facts would Justify
the Lieutenant-General in using even a
more expressive term of contempt. The
Governor Of Kansas called upon the Fed
erai Government to send troops to protect
the border of the State from the Indians.
The troops were sent and posted. General
Sheridan then went out to ascertain the
cause of the Indian threat, and found that
1t was wholly due to the outrageous tres
passes of the cowboys and cattle kings
upon Indian lands-that, indeed, the In
dams entertained no animosity against any
one else, and only demanded what every
man with a pinch of honesty in his COM
position would admit to be right-the re-
moval Of the trespassers and the restora-
ton of the Indian to his treaty lientage.
The Government thereupon ordered the
intruders to retire, and gave them forty
days in which to pack up and move on,
and the Indian more obedient and honor
a6le than the cattle men, hung up his rifle
and went to work awaiting and expecting
obedience on the part of his pale-faced OPP
pressors. Now what does the Governor of
Kansas do but head delegation of cattle
Kings, invade the White House, and petit
ton the President to Withdraw his order
entirely, or at least until next spring, for
the removal of the cause of the trouble
against which the Government had. at the
request of the Governor, armed the Kansas
border. The Presidents sharp reply we
published the other day The Governor
of Kansas went back west without COM
fort, but with some good advice ringing in
his ears. So, if the Times is in error in
ascribing to General Sheridan the singing
remark quoted, it remains that had he
done SO he would have been justified.
