For some years past, the Democrats have been unfortunate in the selection of men for county officers, and as experience has shown, the county has suffered greatly iu a number of in stances, in a pecuniary way. And when the buzzards of the "Ring" could not fleece the county they turned their attention to stealing from their friends. In fact, this has become so notably glaring that one can scarcely judge, when a candidate ou their ticket is successful, whether he really is a member of the "Ring" or not But ogee in a while one will come out without stain or reproach npon his conduct while in of fioe. Tbe "Ring" has been successful, and, like the spider, tbey bare spun their net out so that their real work cannot be seen from an outside view. To learn their workings, and to understand them, one is compelled to enter the uetted web, aud be come acquainted with their operations. Those in the pat who showed an unwilling ness to join the "Ring" have received pun ishment that will last for life.aud they scarce understand how tbey were made sufferers. When hone&t men in their party, succeed iu getting office, they become the first vic tims, if strategy will accomplish the result. It is but a few years since an honest man was elected to the office of County Treasur er. When it was found that really an up right roan bad got the office, and the pro babilities were that but little would result to benefit tbe'ing," be was beset by sharp ers who "portrayed to Lima path strewn with flowers, while the spiders encircled him with a web. The result was that when bis term expired, and he was released, 4e discovered to his sorrow that in the house of his pretended friends he was robbed, and liecaiue a defaulter for the sum of some eight thousand dollars. While such actions are to be greatly re gretted, on account of the evil effect upon the community, and the injured have the sympathy of every honest heart, we shall endeavor to give every man his just dues, whether he belongs to the party we do or not And when we find that an honest Democrat has became successful in obtain ing office, which is a rare occurrence in this county, we feel it our duty to let the public kuow it. In this connection we small then .make reference to the present occupant of the Treasurer's office, Mr. John Haag, Esq., who was elected two years ago, and. who has conducted the office in a most satisfactory manner contrary to some of tbe reports previous to his nomi nation, circulated by tbe "Ring," who tried to defeat him. He has proved himself a sober, vigilant and honest officer. Fortu nately, when taking possession of the office, be resisted all advances of the "Ring," and avoided the meshes of the spiders as fast as they attempted to weave them. Were the Democrats of this county to elect all such men for officers, there would be no cause for complaint Mr. Ilaag, having resisted the deceptive bait held out to bim by the "Ring," at the commence ment of his duties as a public officer, will be, on retiring from the position he now holds, respected by the best men of both political parties, as an honest man, and a faithful public servant Major Russel Eerett, has been se lect as the chairman of the Republican Committee, of Allegheny county. The Colonel will make an efficient officer as he is thoroughly capable of organizing the parly, and make such a vigorous contest as will make the Democracy cause to pick their flints. Governor Hartranft, says the Pittsburg Ttlegrapli, who is to-day as popular, as it is possible for a public man to be, having by bis admirable conduct of the affairs of bis high offise won tbe regard and approval of all parties, is of the opinion that the Re publican State ticket will be elected by a handsome majority. The Governor is not inclined to be enthusiastic or to "slop over" in his estimates or expectations, but Is ratlter given to looking squarely at both sides of a case, and discounting the con clusions of his more sanguine supporters. At all events bis views of the political sit uation in Pennsylvania coincide with those generally entertained by such as have given U careful attention. The Republican ticket lias what it did not have in 1872 the cor dial support of the entire Republican press of the State, and there is every reason to believe tbe State ticket will receive the full republican vote of the Commonwealth. To se the Democratic papers with ap parent seriousness urging Republicans to support the so-called temperance ticket is, amazing. They take great care though not to recommend Democrats to support the ticket In urging Republicans only we can imagine we hear a "hie" in every sen tence. Ton may break, fo way ruin tbelr cup if you a il , But the scent of old whisky will bang round it t il 1. Governor Osborne, of Kausas, la opposed to the policy of dealiug with vaga bond Indians through the medium of treaties, as with nations. A large majority of the peopls of the country are of like opinion. The true policy is to treat them as citizens, and if they murder, and com mit other violations of law, try them as citizens arc tried, and if found guilty, exe cute them. Such a course would produce peace, and afford soma protection to the border settlers, while the present policy furuisb.es neither peace nor protection. The brcthern are wretchedly inharmoni ous at present That sprightly Democratic organ, the St. Louis Dispaidi, is after the hard money Deraocray. It remarks about Minnesota : The Democratic party in Minnesota de clare in favor of specie payments. As the Democratic party in Minnesota never did gaiii a victory, uever expects to gain'ooe, would not know what to do with on after they bad pained it, and do not deserve to gain one as it is at present constituted, its nhject surrender to the money power is only another evideuce ot its incapacity to get ('it of its coffin even alter Ohio had kicked ou its coffin lid aud run an electric current don its back a score or so of times that nicb have made a mountain jump. The Tyranny of Bishops. Father Stack, the Roman Catholic priest of Wil liamsport. Pa., whose quarrel with his bishop made such a stir two years ago, has been writing for llirier'a Weekly in regard to the tyranny of bishops, from whom, he declares, comes nil the danger the Roman Catholic Church holds for our free institu tions. Rev. Mr. Stack declares that "the bishops are absolute feudal lords: and Bishop O'Hara informs us, in his printed argument to the Supreme Court of Penn sylvania, that they intend to remain thus absolute until they make tbe Roman Ca tholic Church the state church in America, and compel the national government to co operate in enforcing their ideas.' If this absolutism lasts ten years longer, he thinks they may have the natiou in their bauds. Pointing out the conflict sure to come over the school question, this priest quotes Father Newman's saying, that nations die like individuals, either violent or natural deaths, to say that a violent death will not be feared for our nation, but a natural death from internal dissensions may result, and that this class power of the Catholic bishops is the most danger-breeding ele ment it contains. The priesthood he says, are in slavery, and must be emancipated. As it is, they dare not revolt, dare not me ditate concerted action. "Why. so far from j possible is any movement aiming at simul taneous resistance ou the part of the priests, that they are afraid to whisper their trou bles into the cars of their congregations, or sometimes to one another. The bishops among other things have not neglected to arrange for a little espionage in suspected quarters, nnderstmdaug well the adage, Divide et impera ; and so it happens that a pious fool of a layman will betray a priest, thinking that by informing his lord ship of malcontentedness he does a service to religion. In the priesthood itself the esprit de corps is nearly extinguished by clerical spies, sycophants, place-hunters." It is needless for us to add that Father Stack considers his suit agaiut Bishop O' Hara a test case, whose result will encour age or discourage the priests. Blood Drinking Ladies. It requires pretty firm nerves in ladies to stand by a bullock beiug slaughtered and drink down the warm blood as it flows from the dying animal ; and yet, according to the Eagle, here is tbe way they do it in Reading : Those who are aware of the emphatic prohibition of blood for food from the ear liest times, which we And in the holy scrip tures, will be astonished to learn that about a dozen ladies of this city, married and single, meet regularly twice a week, at Boyer's slaughter bouse, rear of 108 South Sixth street and quaff the blood of steers that are killed there. Word is sent to the ladies that an animal will be slaughtered at a certain hour, and when the time ar rives they assemble and stand in a row, each holding a wine glass in her band. The throat of the animal is cut with a large knife by the butcher, and as the life blood flows from the wound it is caught in a large circular silver pan, by James M. Boy er, wbo then passes along the row of ladies and fills their wine glasses. After the first round has been drank it is quite a Bight to see the dozen ladies standing with bloody mouths and bloody glasses waiting for the second round of gore. Various chemical preparations containing iron and other constituents of blood have been used for years by persons in this city, but very few drank blood itself. However, it has been quite a common thing for delicate ladies in Paris, New York and even in Philadelphia to drink blood, under the ad vice of prominent physicians. The New Postal Card. The Post Office Department has adopted a new de sign for postal cards prepared at the Printing Department of tbe Treasury. On the npper left hand corner is the mon ogram 'U. S.." across which, on a scroll, are the words, "Postal Card." On the upper right band corner is tbe stamp, nearly square Instead of elliptical, the sides of the stamp being composed of faces, and tbe top and bottom of band scrolls, tbe top one having tha legend "TJ. S. Postage," and tbe lower one "One Cent1 In the centre of tbe stamp is the profile of the Goddess of Liberty. It will be printed in black upon card board of Eau de Nile col or and will soon be ready for issue. The Harrisburg Telegraph says that county officials and others who pay taxes to the new Auditor General had better look well to their credits, as his system of book keeping is not yet perfect Recently, one of the "row" officers paid in $30,000 and be was credited with but 93,000. Of course, this was merely a blunder and not from any disposition to do wrong, or fur nish matctial for a Democratic campaign document, but the failure to make an early discovery of such mistakes might cause serious trouble. Tbe brotherly kindness now prevailing in the Democratic ranks in this State is touching to behold. The Lancaster Intel ligencer, for instance, charges the Harris burg Patriot with having sold out to the enemy, and the Patriot retorts that the editor of the Intelligencer is a consummate ass and unprincipled knave, and a creature so contemptible that no decent person can afford to have further controversy with him, a discounted sueak in his uncovered ugli ness, etc., etc If the Sheriffs of Dauphin and Lancaster are unable to keep the peace between these rowdies, the military will have to be called. Pittsburg Commercial. The debt of Pennsylvania when tbe Democrats ceased to have control of the State finances was above 940,000,000. It has since been decreased, by the prudent management of Republican officials, to g23,CD0.0O0, with ?l,500,900 in the Sinking Fur.d, makiug an actual indebtedness at the present time of about 214,000,000. A Second Roiun&on Crusoe. A ro mantic story conies from New Orleans con cerning one Mr. Harman Jones. Mr. Junes was taken with the gold fever in '49, and set out for California. The veFscl in which he tailed was uever heard from, and of course it was supposed that all on board, including Jones, had perished. An Euglish vessel cruising in the Pacific lately discovered an island hitherto un known, and ou it several Americans who had been there twenty-six years, and among them Mr. Harmon Jones, formerly of New Orleans. The family are preparing to rescue him from his long exile aud bring biui home. He ought to be able to write a book as good as "Robinson Crusoe." Some time since, Mr. Samuel tyyeson of of this place traded horses with some patty ! in Lycoming county. Seveson subsequent ly sold the horse to Mr, J. II. Condon, of the Keystone Coadi Works, Miffliuburg. A few nights ago thin horae was stolen from Mr. Condon's stable. A warrant w8 issued, thief and horse overtakeu and brought to Lewisburg, where the alleged thief was lodged in jail, and subsequently admitted to bail in tha ttn) of $500 for his appearance at next term of poutf,. Mr. C. returned bame w'Uh tbe horse on Tues- ! day evening at,Wflntirg f'tleijroph. The Pottsville Miner's Journal says: The quantity of coal sent from this region the last week was by rail 115,454 tons canal, 59.5G4 tons, for the week, 143,048 tons, against 63,515 for the corresponding week last year. Increase, 79,533 tons. The supply sent from all the regions for the week was anthracite 478,433 tons ; bit uminous 87,796 ; for the week, 506,202 tons against 419,280 tons for the corresponding week last year. Increase, 146,922 tons. The 4th of July occurred in the correspon ding week last year. This year it fell in the week which will be closed to-morrow. Tbe supply sent from all the regions so far this year foots up 8,b54,988 tons, against 10,606,033 tons to same period last year. Decrease in anthracite is 2.305,673 tons. Another strike in the Coal Re gion. There was the beginning of another trouble in Schuylkill county, on Monday, all the miners employed by individual op eratois at St. Clair, and all the outside la borers at Wadesville, quitting work, they being dissatisfied with the reduction of ten per cent under which the miners recently resumed. A Daring Robbery. Four men enter ed a house, in New York, on Monday, pre tending to be looking after the water sup ply. Finding the lady of the house alone, they seized, gagged and bound her, when six confederates rushed into the house, and tbe whole building was soon ransacked, and 40,000 in bonds found and carrid off. GENERAL NEWS ITEMS. Mr. John L. Stokes, one of tbe wealth iest and best known citizens of Stroud s burg, was drowned while bathing, on the 7th inst. The remains of Judge Woodward, who died lately in Rome, arrived at Wilkcs barre on tbe 9th inst, and were interred on the 10th. Governor Hartranft has appoiuted Dr. W. II. Bradley, of the Montour American a trustee of the Danville Insane Asylum, in place of Thomas Beaver, resigned. The Connecticut House of Representa tives has voted 625,000 for the Centennial celebration 810,000 for stock and 815,000 to cover tbe expense of a suitable display of the State's industries. Under Republican rule our natioual taxes have decreased over 8200,000,000, and since 1865 the national debt has been reduced over 8400,000,000, and yet Democ racy not satisfied. The President has again disappointed his enemies by refusing to attend the races at Long Branch. He stated that he never bad witnessed but two races in his life, and did not care for such amusement, although he loved horses. New wheat has already made its appear ance in tbe Philadelphia market Flour manufactured from wheat ot the crop of 1875 has also been offered, and sold at seven dollars per barrel. A woman named Drake was assaulted by a tramp, while picking berries in the woods near Chester, New York, on Saturday, and had ber bead cut open, and was otherwise dangerously wounded. The constable and a posse pursued and arrested the tramp, who would have boen shot on the spot but for the efforts of the constable. According to Rowell's Newspaper Di rectory, 1,000 newspapers have sunk 88 000,000 by their failure in one year. If this announcement is uot spurious, it shows how hard it is to make a newspaper run any length of time. A fatal disease has appearul among the swine in the neighborhood of Bethlehem, Northampton county. The first symptom of the disease is a refusal of food, which is followed by swelling of the snout, and in a few days the victims die of suffocation. On Thursday last a girl named Jane Mason, aged thirteen years, crept under a coal car at the front of the Mahanoy Plane, intending to go to pick huckleberries. While under the car it was put in motion and the unfortunate child's head was cut off. She was not seen until too late. Philadelphia has a clerical scandal. The Rev. Thomas Botte, paster of the Twelfth Baptist church, is charged by thirty-four members of his congregation with "unministerial conduct, undue famil iarity with certain ladies and want of truthfulness." The matter is to be inves tigated. The Democrats everywhere, except in Pennsylvania, speak plainly upon one sub ject They are iu favor of tariff for reve nue. They don't propose to protect home industries. They do uot intend to pur chase the products of American artists but buy manufactured articles abroad and pay for them iu American gold. How these Democrats love the toilers in our work shops ! Zanesville Courier. General Frank P. Blair, Jr., died in St Louis, on Thursday night, at the age of 54 years. He had been in a precarious con dition for several months, but had latterly revived somewhat under Uip "blood-trans-fusing treatment," aud was supposed to be steadily improving. He was able to take frequent rides a few days before his death, and on Wednesday he walked down stairs. His death was, therefore, unexpected. There is a secret society being organized within the Democratic party, with the ob ject of enabling its members to control elections. No secret political society can prosper for any length of time in this country. The spirit of our institutions is againbt them. McClure's paper, the Timet, says that Pennsylvania is undoubtedly a Republican State to-day on a full vote, honestly polled in accordance with the political convictions of the people. It should now be the aim of every Republican to bring out the full expression that will insure the success that belongs to the majority. Mr. Beechor's friends are determined to show that they have lost none of their re gard for him. Iu addition to his congre gation's voting him an increase of salary to tbe amount of 8100,000, the choir of his church, the teachers of his Sunday school and others to the number of five hundred, paid him a complimentary visit at his farm at reekskill, on Thursday. Crop reports from tbe grasshopper dis tricts iu Kansas and Missouri state that corn, millit, flag and Hungariau are look ing splendid. There will be about two thirds of a crop in the devastated counties. A siugular feature is that in the section visited by grasshoppers a new kind of Buf falo grass is springing up, and the farmers are greatly excited. From ail parts of the State the political indications are most encouragiug. The people of the counties seem to be awaking to the critical condition of things, and to fiitl the necessity of rebuking promptly aud decidedly the reactionary tendencies of tbe Democratic party. Tlaa is all that is wanted. The moment the mass of tbe people see the necessity to act their act-ic-R will be for more decisive and overwhelm ing than, jf was in 1861. Philadelphia Pre. The lax rate in New York under Demo cratic Reform rule is greater than it was in any of the years that Tweed held sway. In 1865 it was 82.99, and in 1868 to 1871, inclusive, during which the "Boss" was in power, it was 82.66, 82.27, 82.25, 82.17. The levy for this year is just announced to be 82.96-last year it was 82.80. This does not speak well for Democratic manage ment. The counting of the money in the United States Treasury at Washington has resul ted in demonstrating that everything was right, there. The cash on hand was only twenty dollars short, in one item, aud 811 54 over in two others. All the reports therefore, which have been so industrious ly circulated from time to time by the New York Sun and other sensation jour nals, that their was a ten million deficiency in the Treasury, are thus proved to be false, aud tbe integrity of Treasurer Spin ner is thoroughly vindicated. A heavy storm passed over the city of Vergennes Vt, Friday. Its path was about four miles wide. It destroyed crops and lodged hay in Vergennes, Addison, Waltham, and New Haven. The Catho lic church at Vergennes was damaged 81, 000. The windows of the Congregational and Episcopal churches were all broken by hail. It was the severest storm in that section since 1832. The Baltimore American says the intri guing that is going on within the Demo cratic party in the State campaign has never had a parallel in Maryland. Bar gain and sale, deception and the entry of certain candidates to make the running for others are the prominent features of the canvass. As the time for the couuty con ventions draws near this sort of trafficking becomes more earnest and active. Some of the Democratic papers arc growing alarmed over tbe situation, and are being roused to a protest against tbe entire con trol of affairs by the rings and cliques. Grasshoppers command a dollar a bushel in the west, where they are abundant. What a profitable crop they must make. Railroad Improvements. The Northern Central railway company has purchased the Dcnmcad, on North street, near Calvert station, Baltimore, and will convert the same into a large freight depot to accommodate the growing buiiness of the road. Calvert station will alio be re constructed, and the accommodations for passengers greatly enlarged. Thj Messrs. Denmead will remove their large iron works to the vicinity of Cannon. The excitement regarding the Lawrence riot continues, but no further casualties have been reported. Nine policemen are off duty on account of injuries received in tbe riot. The wounded will all recover. Two of the rioters were scutenced to two months imprisonment The director of the mint has received from London a beautiful bronze medal, struck by the corporation of London, to commemorate the recovery of the prince of Wales from bis last illness. Telegraphic News. Lawrence, July 12. A serious riot occurred in this city to night, resulting from an attack made by a mob upon tbe members of a lodge of Orangemen returning from celebrating the "battle of the Boyne" at a picnic at Laurel Grove, four miles up the Merrimac river. Orangemen from Lowell, Woburn, and other towns participated at the picnic, which passed off quietly, and no trouble was anticipated when they dispersed for their homes, though threats had been made iu the morning, and some of the the men carried firearms in consequence, About a dozen Orangemen, with ladies and children, disembarked at S r. M. at the steamer landing on Water street and started to walk up town. A crowd of several hundred Iruu were at the laudiog and followed them, shouting and jeering, When they arrived in frout of tbe Pacific Mills the crowd commenced throwing stones, one of the ladies being struck three times and badly hurt All the party were more or less injured by missiles thrown at them during their half-mile walk to the police station, whither they wenV for protection. Four of the men had ou regalia, which particularly incensed the mob. One of the men was severely hurt about the head, aud had his sash torn from him. Ou their arrival at the police station word was scut to the mayor, who soon arrived at the scene and undertook to disperse the mob of meu aud boys, but without avail. The cries and jeers of the mob drowned his voice. The Mayor, with a t-quad of police, then started to lake the parly through the crowd to their homes. Essex street, through which they had to pass, was at this time filled for half a mile with the mob. Showers of stones, bricks and other mis siles was hurled at the party as soon as it appeared ou the street. With the excejj tion of tho Mayor, every one of the party was hurt Policeman Guminel was kuocked down and badly hurt. James Spinlow, who was endeavoring to protect his brother's wife, was knocked down, receiving a terrible wound on the head from a brick. At the corner of Union and Spring streets the mob made a furious onslaught on the patty, when nearly all the police and Orangemen were knocked down. The latter then, in self-defense, drew their revolvers and began firing on the mob, who were shouting "Kill the Orangemen 1" The firing quickly dispersed the mob, who scattered in all directions. It is im possible to learu the accurate result of the shooting. So far us kuown no one was killed outright Two men, one woman and a boy twelve vears old were wounded ; none seriously. Of the Orangemen, twelve were wounded by stones and bricks, some of them quite seriously, and four police men were more or less hurt The riot lasted two hours and a half and extended over a route of a mile through the most thickly settled portion of the city. It is the most serious affair of the kind that has occurred here since 1852, and is condemned on every hand as most unpro voked. The courage of the Mayor un doubtedly saved mauy lives. PAMTEiTaNI PEOPLE. PLYMOUTH CHURCH SPEAKS. New York, July 7. A large-atteudcd meeting of the Plymouth Society, which is composed of the pew-holders ot Ply moth Church, was held in the lecture room of the church this evening, Mr. J. B. Hutch inson in the chair. The chairman stated that the meeting had been called for the purpose of considering the question of in creasing Mr. Beecher's salary. Mr. Henry W. Sage offered a resolution to the effect that the salary of the pastor for the ensu ing year be fixed at 8100,000, instead of 820,000, which it has heretofore been. Thjs was seconded, by Mr. R. W. Pope, after which Mr. R. W. Raymond made a lepgthy address in which he censured the action of the press, very strongly and denounced intorviewprs. Mr. S. B. White then delivered a brief and pertinent address in favor of the pass age of the resolution. He said that while the investigating committee were sitting Plymouth Church had made no effort to influence them in anyway, and so it had been all through the trial. They bad made no move whatever towards influencing the jury or anybody else iu Mr. Beecher's be half. Their time bad not come until to night, and now, said the speaker, "We will show to the world that Plymouth Church can spend millions in defense of her pastor's innocence, but not one dollar for blackmail or bribery." Tbe resolution was theu put to vote and carried unanimously, there being not one dissenting voice. There were about four fifths of the pew-holders of the church pre sent at the meeting, which was a very en thusiastic oue. It is generally understood among the congregation that this enormous salary is only for the year, and mainl3' to help defray the expenses of the trial. It is stated, however, that the salary hereafter will be a moderate one. THE WAR IX SPAIN. Madrid, July 10. An official dispatch to the government gives the following de tails of military operations : The flighting on Wednesday near Manclares, in the pro vince of Alava, lasted five hours. The Carlists were under Perula and Carlos ; they uumbered eightecu battalions of in fantry, twelve guns, aud four hundred and fifty cavalry. Their loss was one hundred and forty killed, many wounded, and a number taken prisoners. The Alfonist General Contretas twice brilliantly charged the Navarrese, with a body of eighty lan cers, sowing death in their ranks and creat ing a panic. The railway between Vilt- toria and Miranda has been restored, and that between Valencia and Vinarpz will shortly be reopened. Gen. Javellar is at Morella, province of Castellon de la Plana Weller'8 division is enueavoring to over take Dorregaray. It has orders to imme diately attack if it comes up with bim. All the fords of the river Gallegs, in Aragon, are guarded. The Carlists have retreated in disorder towards Amozoas. Gens. Qucsada, Loma and Tello are pursuing them. Gen.

A PECULIAR COUNTRY PRODUCTIONS EATABLES DRAWBACKS IRRIGATION A BIG CANAL THE STATE TO IRRI GATE TOWNS AND CITIES WnO SHOULD COME AND WHO NOT. San Francisco, July 1, 1875. A PECULIAR COUNTRY. California is the most singular country in the world. It has within its borders more variety of climate, and more variety of production, and is, altogether, a peculiar country. San Francisco, for iustauce, en joys a summer during which the thermo meter never goes above 70 deg., and in the winter uever below 40 deg. Go fifteen miles across the bay and you will find it 10 deg. hotter, and go up the San Joaquin valley 60 miles, and the mercury will mount up to 105 deg. on the slightest pro vocation. Then go on to the mountains and every tcp you go up it becomes cooler till you find, if you go up far enough, snow tbe year around. So you see you can get any climate you want, varying from that of Greenland's Icy mountains to India's coral strands. And its productions Vary as widely as its climate. Wheat grows to a perfection unknown in the other States. Rye, barley, oats, potatoes, and in fact all the grains and roots produce won derfully. Fruits are miraculous both in yield and quality. It is fashionable to say of California fruits that while the yield is large they are deficient in flavor. This is not true. A pear growu in California and eaten in New York will not have the flavor a pear should have, but it must be remem bered that it has been bounced in railroad trains seven days, and that it was picked green. That same pear which is so iosinid in the New York market, is as spicy and high flavored in San Francisco as one could wish it. The oranges, strawberries, peaches, plums, apricots, and all other fruits are just as good in quality as they are iu quantity. And remember another point The Cali fornian has these things the year round. There is no season of the year that new potatoes, beans, green peas, asparagus and strawberries even are plentiful ten months in the year. OTHER EATABLES are just as plentiful and just as cheap. The mountain ranges afford splendid food for cattle and sheep, and the ocean and streams arc full of the finest of fish. Nowhere can so great a variety of fish be found, and in no waters are they better. In consequence, living is very cheap in California, and not only cheap but good. In Sau Francisco a belter meal can be had for twenty cents than you can get in New York for a dollar. But the country HAS ITS DRAWBACKS. There are but two seasons, the wet and the dry, and the dry season is very dry. For months and months no rain falls ; and during the wet season it rains almost every day. If the rain fall is light during the wet season, a short crop, or rather a total failure of crops, is the certain result. In some of the valleys the rain fall is frequent ly sufficient to produce two crops in a year, but more frequently one only can be ma tured, aud total failures are by no means uncommon. IRRIGATION is the only certain thing for crops anywhere in the State. That makes crops absolutely certain, and not only certain but wonder fully profitable. When a man buys a farm in California, it is the water, not the laud, that he buys. Land can be had cheap enough anywhere, but to get land that water can be put on is the point. The country must be irrigated in some way, to make production certain. In some sec- j tions artesion wells answer the purpose, well and cheaply. The water is raised by means of wind-mills, afad distributed in the usual way. But artesian wells cannot be bad everywhere, and then other means must be resorted to. The San Joaquin i Valley, ope of the largest and richest in the State, needs water more than almost any other portion of tho State, To do it it Is proposed to make a. CANAL 300 MILES LONG from Lake Tular, bringing the waters of that little sea down the whole length of the valley. To utilize the water to the fullest extent, it is proposed to make the canal navigable, so as to uot only furnish wa ter for the crops, but to furnish cheap transit for the crops after they are produc ed. The work will be euormouslv expen sive, but it will pay. The valley is as rich as the Nile country, and iu wet seasons will produce the crops with certainty. Two years' crops will pay for the canal. This project with a dozen others will lie urged upon the State Legislature this winter, and in some 6b ape will be carried. 'It has been found necessary to make IRRIGATION A STATE MATTER. It is impossible for individuals to make ditches of sufficient capacity to water so vast an extent of country, and if corpora tions were to do it, the monopoly would squeeze the life out of the people. The State will do it, and when done California will be as great as an agricultural State as she is now as a mineral. THE TOWNS AND CITIES of California are, as a rule, prosperous San Francisco is growing very rapidly,and there are scores of new towns springing into existence in all parts of the State, and they are going forward rapidly. Sacramen to is dead, for its business was taken away when the Centrel Pacific road was extend ed to San Francisco, but Sacramento is an exception. But DON'T EMIGRATE IF YOU ARE POOR. California is no place for a man without means. The idea of gold brought to the shores thousands upon thousands of poor men, who were disappointed in their hopes, and who consequently are compelled to work for just what they can get ; and be sides, John Chinaman, who can live on nothing a day is here, and a terrible com petitor in the labor market be is. The de licious climate has brought thousands more, all of whom want something to do, and the result is almost everything except farming is orverdone. Lawyers are thicker than blackberries in Northern Pennsylva nia. Doctors ! bless you, there are ten for every patient, particularly as delerium tre mens is about the only disease they have here, and there are mechanics' of all kinds in plenty. Book-keepers, clerks, salesmen, all of that sort of people swarm through the land like bees. So don't come without money expecting something to turn up. 1 1 may turn up, but, alas ! there are a dozen months for every bit that shows itself. But IF YOU HAVE MONEY, some money, you don't need much, you can find plenty of fields in which to labor profitably. Mechanics who do business for themselves, do well, and with capital agriculture is very profitable. Tbe profes sions are overstocked, and merchandising is overdone. The STATE HA8 A GREAT FUTURE before it, and whoever settles here in the right way cannot but get bis share in the benefit of its growth. But too much must not be expected. Gold is no longer picked up in nuggets, or washed in pans. There is gold, but it takes money to get it, and as it is with gold so'it is with everything else, You can't pick up fortunes in California any easier than you can in New York But it is a delightful rich State, and who ever chooses to come -with means, and works hard enough, will get on certain, And so he will anywhere. There area great many coming and a few returning, The few will win and the many will be dis appointed. Still it is a good country to come to. Pietro, Sheriff' Wales of Keal Estate.
