The case of George Washington, con tinued horn Saturday, next came up.— George had a row with Zells Maddox all about a goat and a dog. Tbo wit nesses brought up on both sides were nu morons, and busy in performing their parts, aad reminded the Court of the picture of Dr. Helmbold's advertise ment—“Hottentots seen gathering bochu leaves for H.

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 Mongolian wm to release them foam ser- 626.00 Save* t Bared!
