The HERALD believes that the mid
winter fair will prove a general benefit
to the whole state. 1t will bring us into
more intimate relations with the east by
the reports that transmontane visitors
will carry home with them, and will in
evitably result in valuable accessions to
our population from strangers who will
be wonderfully impressed with the ad-
vsnces we have made in the arts, man
ufactures and in the marvellous produc-
tions of our soil. 1t will epitomize our
great resources, and this supeiadded to
the experience of eastern visitors in our
mstchess climate will create an interest
in California which cannot but result in
general benefit to the whole state.
Southern California will, of course, re-
ceive it's full share of the benefits that
must flow from this successful exposi-
ton.

AFTER all the brsggadocio we have
heard from Mitchell AMI his friends for,
10, these many months, one is simply
amazed that this burly British cham
pion could only stand before the brawny
muscle oil Corbett for three short rounds.
1t looks now as if Mitchell was all along
playing waiting game, and interpreting
objections at every stage of the negotia-
tions for a meeting, in the hope that
something might happen to prevent it,
and still leave him with the honors OF a
willing combatant; it took the utmost
fnesse on the part OF Mitchell's man
ayers to pin the English pugilist down
to business, aud he raised great num-
Der of side ISSUES before the papers were
finally signed. II he were made of the
genuine stuff and was fit foeman Of the
American champion, he would have
stood before him for more than three
short rounds. We believe that Mitchell
knew he was no match for Oorbett all
the time, and that he has been playing
from the start game of bluff. Had the
governor of Florida had his way and pre-
vented the fight, Mitchell would be
much more important parsonage in the
fistic world than he can ever hope TO be
from this time forth.

DR.. OBED HARVEY, who died three
days ago at Gait, Sacramento county,
came to this state in the fifties, and
stood high in the estimation OF the peo-
pie of his locality. The distinguishing
feature OF his career was that he was
one OF the heroes who went down in the
steamship Central America when Bhe
eank with over five hundred men on
board on her passage between Aspinwall
and New York. He was one of the
seven or eight who survived the memoir
able disaster. On returning to the sur
face of the ocean, he seized floating
hen-coop, and after floating around for
some time in company with Billy Birch,
the famous negro minstrel, was rescued
by boat from a vessel that had oppor-
timely hove in sight. The facts con-
nected with that disaster were of 40 ex-
traordinsry character that they sent a
thrill through the world. The brave
captain, Herndon, succeeded in lower
ing two boats in safety, and all the
women and children were sent awav in
them. But two of the men passengers
were allowed to go IN them-Judge
Monson and Theodore Payne. The rest

bravely to their tate, and went down

CHARLES A. WETMoRE, who went east
in the interest of the wine-growers of
California, has succeeded in establish.
ing harmonious understanding with
the wine importers of the east on the
subject of the wine schedule in Wilson's
tariff bill. They have agreed upon
amendments to do away with sd valorem
duties and impose specific duty on
other wines. This duty is to be 80 cents
on wines with IA per cent OF alcohol or
less, and 80 cents on wines with IA to 25
per cent of alcohol. Wines containing
one-quacter alcohol will be taxed tn 9
same as spirits. The provision of the
Wilson bill that no still wines shall pay
more than 100 per cent ad valorem will
be stricken out. 1t is believed that the
changes as above proposed will receive
the support of the committee, and that
the congressman from this coast will
use their influence in favor OF the
amendments as above outlined. The
prospect OF securing this desired protec-
ton to the winegrowers of the coast is
said to be very encouraging.
