Our FAILING RIvER.-Day by day the
condition of the Sacramento river grows
worse, and if its present decadence contin-
ues navigation must soon be wholly sus-
pended until next winter On Saturday
evening barge stuck i'll the sand while
attempting to pass through the draw of the
railroad bridge, and the bridge could not
be closed in time to allow the 6-o'clock
local train from San Francisco to come into
the city. As a consequence the passengers
had to be ferried across the river in small
boats, an operation consuming several
hours. On the same afternoon the steamer
Varuna got fast in the same spot and was
detained several hours. On Saturday the
Modoc grounded as usual, on the bar below
the city, and remained there nearly all day.
Yesterday morning the Apache was unable
to reach her wharf, and the Governor Dana
made two trips in order to relieve her of
her load She fiosted about 10 clock last
night, and got up to street little later
1t looks as if midsummer navigation of the
Sacramento is nearly thing of the past.
A Mississippi catfish would have its belly
worn smooth in trying to navigate our
=" river these days.
EXCITING RUNAwAY.-Last evening, as
]. r. Hodson and family were riding in
Agricultural Park behind q pair of high
spirited horses, one of the singletrees broke
and the horses ran away. They finally
ran against the railing in front of the
grand stand and quite smash-up resulted.
Fortunately none of the occupants of the
carriage were injured.
