On the subject Of appointiye police
Jurors the Ruston Caligraph concludes
a lengthy article as follows:
If it be true, as claimed, that Loui-
sjana is Democratic State and that
Democratic majorities can be rolled ny
in all of the parishes for Governors,
congressman and district officers, why
cannot all the parishes elect Democratic
police Jurors TO say that we cannot
is eoui yalent to saying that our State
and Congressional elections have not
been fairly conducted during the past
eight years. It indeed seems to ms a
hardship that very large majority of
the parishes OF this State should be de-
prived of the Democratic privilege Of
selecting their police juries just because
there is probability that a very few
parishes in fie State might pass into
the hands OF Republicans. We are OPP
posed to the appointiEe system because

Letter from Mendocino.

Fort BRAGG Cali, August %, 1856.
EDS. RECORD UNION | believe your read
ers will be interested in the material growth
being experienced by this section of Men
docino county. We are living in active
anticipation of railroad from your city
through Woodland into this part of the
coast counties; and property is already
taking on better prices in such anticipa-
ton. We are to have a new hotel here,
which will be the best in the locality. 1t
is being built by S. W. McMullen, and will
cost, when completed, about $4,000. 1t is
20 by 80 feet in dimensions, two stories
high, having bay-windows, and will pre-
sent fine appearance. The new railroad
is expected to run through Sherwood val
ley, and if so, it is more than probable that
branch road, twelve miles long, will be
constructed by the lumber companyof this
place to meet il in that valley, and connect
here with water transportation. I. B.

The Valensin Case.

The United States Circuit Court, Sawyer
Judge, has rendered decision in the case
of Alice NJ Valensin. of this county, against
her husband, Count Giulio Valensin. The
suit was one instituted by the plaintiff to
recover from her husband certain sums of
money received by him from the sale of
grain, etc., belonging to the plaintiff. Judge
Sawyer yesterday rendered a decision in
favor of the defendant. The Court held
that the evidence proved it was thoroughly
understood between the parties. who owned
farms adjoining each other as individual
property, that the same should be worked
together. The fact of leases having been
executed by both parties conformity, the
lessor to receive third of the crop raised
upon the lands of both husband and wife
considered as one property, and also that
money was borrowed and joint notes and
mortgages executed were also referred to,
as well as the circumstance of the money
received being deposited in a common
pool, so to speak, against which both par
ties checked at will. The Court held that
if not technically partnership it was es-
sentially ore. If there is any right of re-
covery by the wife during coverture, the
decision goes or, the remedy must be in
equity and not in an action at law for
money had and received. The Court fur
ther suggests that, from the evidence given,
it seemed likely that an accounting would
show that much more of the defendant S
money had been expended either for the
plaintiffs individual good, or in improving
their common property, than of her own.
The full judgment was that the plaintiff
take nothing upon the claims made against
her husband, and the latter nothing upon
his counter claim, which of course is prac-
tically entirely in his favor.

The Estate Loses.

The judgment of the Superior Court of
this county, in the case of Mrs. Annie
Smith VS.. the estate of William Hicks,
has been affirmed. 1t will be re-
lnembered that the plaintiff claimed
certain sum from the executors
of the Hicks estate for services alleged to
have been rendered deceased during his
illness The claim was made out and pre-
sented by the plaintiff herself, and the
executors contested it on the ground that it
should have been made out by the bus
band, the wife having no rights under the
law. The lower Court rendered verdict
for the plaintiff. On appeal, the Supreme
Court now affirms the verdict, and holds
that, though under the law the bill should
really have been made out and presented
by the husband, no substantial right of the
executors was infringed upon. A second
point raised, to the effect that Hicks had
allowed Mrs. Smith $4,000 in his will, is
decided against the estate.

woodland and Lake County Railroad.

w OOhldhu SOuHiy EGti1TOdu
A gentleman who has just returned from
Lake and Mendocino counties states that
the proposed railroad from Sacramento and
Woodland to Lake and Mendocino counties
is very favorably regarded in those coun-
ties, and the convassing for funds with
which to construct the road is progressing
very favorably. About S150000 has al
ready been pledged in Mendccino, and the
subscriptions being secured in Lake county
are far exceeding most Sanguine eXpecta-
tons.
The activity displayed for this road, and
the prospect of its early success. has caused
Donahue to bestir himself, and he is ear
nestly seeking to bring his road into favor,
promising to extend it Immediately. So
active is he in this direction that he is APP
plying to those who have subscribed for
the Woodland road to relinquish sucA Sub
scription and 10 aid him in his project of
extension.
One subscriber, living in Round valley
has his name down for $4,000 for the
Woodland road and proposes to give still
further aid if the construction of the road is
proceeded with. Others who have sub
scribed somewhat smaller amounts express
similar intentions, and are enthusiastic for
the road, and all, so far as met with, were
entirely in favor of the route to Woodland
and Sacramento, in preference to the Dona-
hue extension. They give as their reason,
that they wish an outlet direct to the East,
and that in purchasing supplies, etc., Sacra-
mento can furnish their dealers at as low a
rate, il not lower. than San Francisco.
The people of Sacramento and Yolo
county are deeply interested in this matter,
and should not let the opportunity slip to
