TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER as, 1873,
RUNNING RIOT.

Yesterday the Legislature ran riot ir
voting away the public money. A ma
jority of the Ministry joined hands with
majority of the Assembly in opening
the ball. They voted point blank against
the first item coming up of the revised
estimates submitted by command of the
King, and adopted the higher figure in
the original bill Had they paused
here, after raising the appropriation for
His Majesty's Privy Purse and Royal
State, there would have been little, il
any ground of complaint But instead
there ensued the widest revelry in ex-
travagance. Items, one after another,
were raised one, five, ten and even IF
teen thousand dollars. As this reckles,
action is utterly inconsistent with the
professions of the Ministers, what are
people to think of their pitiful, their de
plorable helplessness in the hands Of
the man who leads the majority IN the
houses Whence does Mr.. Kaulukou
derive the extraordinary sway he bears
over the Legislature and Ministers Of
the Crown1 Yesterdays legislative
scenes should make it obvious to the
taxpayers of the kingdom that the ad-
ministration of affairs has been reduced
to sham. 1t seems that power in
no way responsible to the Legislature
or The people controls the purse and
vic Is the destiny of the nation. In
short, a system Of backstairs govern
ment has, to appearance, been insidi-
ousy inaugurated, such as at times has
inninently threatened all that was valu-
able to the people in ;he constitution of
England. If that system is to be rooted
out kere. the sooner it is grappled with
the better. Yet there would appear to
be very little prospect that the taxpayers
will awake to the true position of affairs
until the fruits of work such as yester-
days excoriate their palates

LEGISLATIVE SUMMARY.

On Saturday Mr.. Richardson pre-
sented the report Of special committee

vided for and that the sum Of $4,000
be voted to defray the expenses of the
celebration. This was signed by

Bush and Cleghorn. A minority re-
port was presented by Mr.. Castle, in

California Correspondence

We have for some time, carried a
letter from L. w. Mitchell, with the
purpose of extracting remarkable
passage concerning Ventura county,
Cal, which he visited in September.
The passage referred to is as follows :
There is a great deal of waiste
mountainous country in this county,
but that portion suitable for agricul-
tural purposes is the most productive
body of land I ever saw, cultivated
mostly in beans and corn, in connec-
ton with some varieties Of choice
fruits. It is not uncommon to gather
100 bushels of corn per acre from
these lands without irrigation or a
drop of rain after planting, and as
high as rs tons Of pumpkins per
acre, which seems almost incredible
to me, yet it is asserted as a fact.
AN ENTHUSIASTIC SETTLER.
We append the following extracts
from letter from National City, a
suburb of San Diego, written in Oc-
tober last:
1 will Just say that this is the best
climate on this continent, don't think
there is any better on the globe, and
as for fruit, we grow nearly all the
semi tropical fruits to perfection.
Such as oranges, lemons, lines, figs,
pomgranates, guavas and all of the
fine varieties of raisin grapes, &c,
apricots, pears, peaches, prunes,
plums and the best of apples of all
Eastern and Western varieties, also
nearly all kinds of small fruit do well,
and all kinds of vegetables better,
much better than in the States fur
ther East. Flour of best quality at
from $4.00 to $500 per barrel, beef
and pork about the same as in Iowa
and Kansas, fish is plenty and cheap,
butter, from 80 to 40 cts, eggs
through the year from 25 to 40 cts,
potatoes both Irish and sweet from
81 90 to $1.5O per 100 TBS. So you
see it don't cost any more to live in
Gods country than it does where you
freeze and wade in mud and blow
away and shake with the ague &c,
&c, This is the healthiest country
by far, that T ever saw. We never
have any snow. A few light frosts
through the winter months and not
near so hot in summer as in Iowa and
Kansas. Honey of best quality at
from 4 to s cts.
Our little city has more than dou
bled in two years and has now about
$4,000 and will undoubtedly reach
10000 to $4,000 in five years from
now.
Well, my advice to you or any
other man is to get an emigrant ticket
for a few dollars and come and see
for yourself, and you will find the
most wide-awake and enterprising
class of people here you ever saw.
II tell you what is the fact, I would
rather work out by the day or month
for my living here than to own and
stay on the best farm in any of that
changable and sickly country.

pronounced it O local disease, and

Science has proven Catarrh to be a

requires q constitutional treatment.

Lincoln, Anderson and Davis.

In the December Century, the au-
thors of the Life OF Lincoln state
that Lincoln's final release from the
service of the United States after
the Black Hawk campaign "was
signed by young lieutenant OF ar
tillery, Robert Anderson, who, twen-
ty-nine years after, in one OF the
most awful crises in our annals, was
to sustain to Lincoln relations OF
prodigious importance, on scene
Illuminated by the flash of the guns
of the Civil War" The authors
further state that the story to the
effect that Lincoln was mustered into
service by Jefferson Davis is not con-
firmed by the strictest search in the
records. They publish in q foot note
a statement by Adjutant General
Drum giving oil the known facts in
relation to the story.

The December number of the Eclectic,
which closes the volume, is worthy of no
tice, the articles printed being of very IN
teresting sort. Goodwin Smith gives his
notions of England after q prolonged alb
s9nce from it. "Our Craftsmen" is strong
paper on the English working classes, and
the article on the Statesmen of Eastern
Europe" is highly relevant to the events of
to-day. An article on the Bulgarian Ques-
tom, from highly competent authority,
will also attract attention. Mrs. Lynn
Linton's discussion of the "Higher Educa-
ton of Woman" is vigorous presentation
of the negative side of the subject Other
papers OF interest discuss the poet Cole
ridge, 1.-THE Resources of Ireland" ''The
Women of Indian History" ''Music and
Medicine" etc. Special attention may be
called to Grant Aliens discussion of the
Marriage and Love Question, suggested by
Sir George Campbelrs disquisition recently
delivered before British association on this
subject. The minor articles, story, poems.
etc, which complete the number, are sug-
gestive and agreeable.

WASHINGTON LETTER.
(Frcm Our Regular Correspondent, {,


WASHINGTON, d. O., Nov. 23, '86.
The custom Of shutting down on
public work, and turning fifteen thou
sand employees loose whenever .
President, ex-President, Cabinet
officer or ex- Cabinet officer happens
to die, is o questionable way Of show
ing respect to the distinguished dead.
It is picnic for the clerks and a time
for congratalation, and they would
be glad to multiply by hundred-fold
the occasions Of public sorrow that
give them day off and out There
is no doubt that the custom would
be more honored in the breach than
in the observance, but it is one OF
those things that a long line Of pre-
cedent has established and it would
be difficult to decide where or with
whose demise it should end,
The regular Army officers who
have been examining the militia OF
the States and Territories have re-
ported, commanding the efficiency Of
the respective organizations. They
think, however, that the armed mil
tia Of the country would be doubled
if Congress would appropriate annu-
ally much larger sum to be distrib-
uted among the States for improved
arms and accoutrements. In the lat
ter case it is estimated that the mil
tia would consist OF 100000 well
drilled men, who could be called into
active service at moments notice,
and who would be almost as effective
at the outset OF war as the regular
Army.
Many conventions and associations
more than ever before--want to
come to Washington during the next
year. Tho National Grange has de-
cided to hold oil future meetings OF
that order in Washington, and a COM
mittee has been appointed to take
measures for the erection OF q suitable
building here for its officers and its
sessions.
Soon after Congress meets there
will be q large gathering OF notabili-
ties here to discuss the proposed Ex-
position at Washington in 1889 and
'92. And later there is to be a con-
vention OF an educational character
which will attract good many peo-
pie. It will be in the interest OF
Federal aid to common schools and
will be composed Of school superin-
tendents from the various States and
Territories.
It has been proposed that each
State of the Union shall erect in this
city handsome building to be used
as State headquarters, and perhaps
as residence for the Senators OF the
respective States. The plan, which
is likely to be carried out some time,
would prove great convenience to
each State, and would add much to
the grandeur OF the National Capital.

Children Playing SaloOn-Its Effect on
q Saloon Keeper.

81 hear that Smith has sold out his
saloon, said one of q couple of middle
aged men who sat slipping their beer
eating bit of cheese in smith6eld
street saloon last Friday night
"Yes" responded the other, rather
slowly.
"What was the reason? Thought
he was just coming money there
The other nibbled cracker ab-
stractedly for a moment then said !:
"Its rather funny story Smith, you
know lives on Mount Washing,s n,
right near me, where he has an excel
lent wife, a nice home, and three as
pretty children as ever played out
doors. All boys, you know, the old

same size. Smith is pretty respec-
table sort of citizen, never drinks or
CANDLES and thinks the world of his
family.
well, he went home one afternoon
last week and found his wife out
shopping, or something of that sort
He went on through the house into
the back yard, and there ander an
apple tree, where the little fellows
were playing. They had bench and
some bottles and tumblers, and were
playing keep saloon He noticed
that they were drinking something
out of pail, and they acted tipsy.
The youngest who was behind the
bar, had towel tied around his waist,
and was setting the drinks up pretty
free. Smith walked over and looked
in the pail. 1t was beer, and two of
the boys were so drunk that they
staggered. A neighbor's boy, q
couple of years older, lay asleep be-
hind the tree.
"My God, boys, you must not
drink that" as he lifted the little six
year from behind the bench.
owes playin' sl'oon, papa, an I
was sellin it just like you,' said the
little fellow. Smith poured out the
beer, carried the drunken boy home
and then took his own boys in and
put them to bed. When his wife
came back she found him crying like
a child. He came back down town
that night and sold out his business,
and says he will never sell or drink
another drop of liquor. His wife told
mine about, and she broke down cry
ing while she told it.

SAGE AND SINGER.

Within an old town by the sea
A wise man and singer dwelt;
The wise man spoke laboriously
And taught with pain the truth he felt.
The singer scattered everywhere
His careless music to the air.
The wise man aud the singer both
Lie now within the churchyard green;
Summer and spring have plighted troth,
A hundred years they have not seen.
No traces of their vanished feet
Are in the old high gabled street.
And of the wise mans labored words
Not one is now remembered well,
But still as clearly as spring birds
The singers simple love songs swell,
And in the old town seem part
OF every home and every heart
