The indications are that Mr. Pacheco,
if the Fout-h California District, will
be unseated in favor of the contestant,
Mr. Wiggintou. The majority by which
Mr. Pacheco was declared elected was
of one vote, the county standing 19,104
to 19,103. The ground upon which
Mr. Pacheco will be unseated it that
several hundred vates were cast illegal
ly by persons not. qualified to vote.
The testimony upon this point is clear,
but we do not. understand that it.in
volves the repute of Sir-' Pacheco fn
any way, He simply received as a
candidate upon tbe regular Republican
i.-.ke', part of the benefits ot fraud or
ganized by the Sargent-Gorham nog,
to carry the State for the general ticket,
aud his majority was so small that the
rectification of the count of tbe votes
invalidated liis election. It is estima
ted that over 12,000 illegal votes were
polled for the Republican ticket in
California in 1876.' Only a small por-
ion of these trauds occurred in the
Fourth District, but the evidence before
he committee leaves uo loom for doubt
hat. without: the .illegal votes, Mr.
Pacheco would have been defeated by
‘everal hundred.
Oysters of enormous Bize have been
found at times upon our coast, but
rarely, if ever, one which rivals in di
mensions one taken in 1840 in Mobile,
ft was taken in April of that year by
Xavier Francois, while oystering at bis
accustomed beds. It measured three
feet and one inch in length, and twen
ty-three and a half inches in breadth
across its widest part. It was opened
and served up in a savory stew. In
1365 a Jefferson Market (New York)
oyster dealer found in his stock of East
river oysters, one which contained a
dead fish, six inches long, of the spot
