The Hop Market.
But little if any business in hops has
been transacted in Sacramento for the past
two weeks. Large quantities are stored
here, and nearly all belongs to growers.
Cochran's Hop Circular, issued in San
Francisco, on Friday last said The mar
ket for the past week has been very quiet.
| There are orders here from London to buy.
but the prices named are such that fail to
draw any attention. late cable from

York market is wired dull-no business
and offerings nominal. Prices remain
steady. How long this state Of affairs will

ers it is 4 question hard to answer, vet we
have no fear as to the ultimate outcome of
the whole business. That the world at
large is short of hops for the season of

we have it from old and wise hop factors
in London that the demand must come
with higher prices. Meanwhile specula-

and it has been so all during the season.
When they could buy and did buy at

high, and they cannot afford to paw it,
What IS their object? They want to de-

positive orders to sell at Gay prize. That's
what they want, and they are ali the more
eXasperated to find that growers as a rule
refuse to submit to such treatment and are
standing firm. Their frmncSs will be re-

REV. DR.. ANDEEsoy.-In speak ing of the
Rev. T. II. B. Anderson, who fol- many
years was pastor Of the Seventh-street
Methodist church in this city. the Colusa
! Sun says: This eloquent and faithful and
! gifted divine has been absent during the
| present week, but we are happy to say Will
he at home and resume his labors in Colusa
on next Sabbath. DR.. Anderson has been
a tervent and persistent and industrious
aborer III the great vineyard of the Lord
| for many years; he has labored to change
! the color of many souls, some of which we
| fear were beyond the bond. of redemption.
| but his heart has never been known to grow
! faint. He has been instrumental in build
! ing churches and endOwing colleges he
| has made many crooked paths straight he
has caused the rose to bloom where the
! thistle had an abiding place. This Chris
| tan gentleman and scholar has frequently
been called to the house of mourning and
| poured the oil of gladness upon the wounds
| of the afflicted. Has he been properly re-
warded? Yea, has he been the recipient
OF due credit? He has been engaged in
| delivering lectures in some of the lower
counties, and propping up some Of the
walls of falling castles where those who
choose may worship. We trust that his
| career on earth may he of a long and salts
| factory character, and many may yet grow
up and call him blessed.

! night, for the first time in this city, will be

nautical drama, entitled Lighthouse
Cliffs, with new scenery and effects. This
is said to be a play well suited to the talent
engaged and more meritorious than any
thing heretofore essayed at that place of
amusement. The Eldrcd Brothers have
engaged the services of Frank Dodge a
tirst-c!ass scenic artist, who has painted full
sets of scenery for each act. The cast of
characters is very strong, and if successful
