attended licr funeral, and as a fearful
warning to her surviving friends, ordered
the remains to be interred with the head
downward. He then preached a sermon
over the closed grsTe, and terrified his
hearers by declaring that the spirit of the
deceased had alrcndy gone to the infernul
regions, and that theirs would follow, on
their heads also, if they did not immedi
ately reform their lives. The deviu; re
ally has tho merit of originality, and
promises to work as well as did that of
tho Chinese pricet in Nevada, who saw
his charge coaling longing eyes on u hog

REMARKS.
Trade is gradually improving, portion
lorly in the provision line. To-day was,
for the season, generally satisfactory.—
We heard no one complain, bnt rather u
hopeful and cheerfal smile betokened a
gratifying change from tho past three
months.
Oorn is down a little, which is lmrd to
account for, whilo flonr is brisk, lmt
steady.
Bacon is quiet and lard medium.

A Nevada man, anxious to marry
young lady of his acquaintance, learned
that her sister was about to marry, and
without her knowledge procured a mar
riage license, flatteriug himself that he
could spring the question upon her, and
that in tho excitement of her sister's mar
riage she would consent to follow suit.—
The idea was a brilliant one, but tho at
tempt to aarry it into execution was a
woeful failure.
Albert Harrison, Jr., twenty-one years
old, enraged by tho violence of his in
toxicated father towards his mother, in
Philadelphia, on Saturday night, seized
n small sword and ran it through his
body, inflicting a dangerous wound. He
then went to a police station nnd gave
himself up. He is said to be n quiet,
sober youug man, and his father is a hard
working, industrious man, who occa
sionally gets drank, and is then very
troublesome.
Mr. D. H. Craig, late general agent of
the New York Associated Press, is said
to have perfected his new system of tele
graphy, to tbo development of whioh he
has been devoting his time and means
for tlireo years past, with results that can
hardly fail to effect an entire revolution
in telegraphy, by reducing its cost to a
rate very little aliove the present rates of
postage. It is claimed that by thia new
automatic system it is perfectly practica
ble to transmit with absolute aocnrocy,
over a single wire, more than sixty thou
sands words an hour—a speed more than
sixty times greater than by any of the
systems now in use. Telegrams which
under the Morse system now cost several
dollars will, it ia said, be reduced to a
comparatively few cents; whieh, if true,
will make its value almost inestimable to
the press, the mercantile community and
tbe public at large-
A Chinaman ia a source of sore trouble
to your true Californian. Both political
parties in thq State reoognize tho fact,
and the leaders have paid the poor com
pliment to their respective followers of
introducing into their platforms resolu-
lions opi>oeing Chinese immigration.—
Not that the highly respectable Calif or.
nians are afraid of the morals or religion
of the heathen, but of his competition in
labor. In point of feet, however, it is
oonccded that the Chinese are disappear
ing from tho Pacjffo slope. The highest
number ever there is stated by the Sac
ramento Union at 62,000, and the pres,
ent number is placed at only 80,000. It
would teetu, therefore, that the sound
and fnry of the political orators were en
rolled for, while the hopes whioh our
Eastern matrons had indulged that the
