ONE FLOOD NOT CAUSED BY HYDRAULIC MINING.
"The Chico Chronicle of April 13th
says thatthe sloughs between that
place and Butte City.are almost. .impassable,—the stage] driver between
those places having to swim his
horses part of the way; and that the
levee below Colusa had broken and
flocded over 100,000 acres of grain,
covering Grand Island and doing
great damage to stock and crops. It
is now in order for some of the
granger papers to attribute this flood
to hydraulic mining, but as no hydraulic mining is prosecuted on the
upper Sacramento or its tributaries,
and as water don’t run up hill, we
hasten to anticipate their falsehoods
and to say to them, “Shake not thy
gory locks at me, thou canst not say
T did it,”
EEE
AMFTICAN NEWSPAPERS,
From the edition of Messrs. Geo.
P. Rowell & Co,’s American Newspaper Directory, now in press, it
appears that the newspapers and
periodicals of all kinds reach a grand
total of 13,402, Thisisa net gain
of 1,600 during the last. twelve
months, and exhibits an increase of
5,618 over the total number publish. edjust ten years since. The increase in 1874 over the total for
1873 was 493. During the past
year the dailies have increased
from 1,138 to 1,254; the weeklies
from 9,062 to 10,029; and the monthlies from 1,091 to 1,499. The
greatest increase is in the Western
States. Illinois, for instance, now
shows 1.009 papers in place of last
year’s total of 904, while Missouri
issues 604 instead of the 523 reported in 1883,Other leading Western States also exhibit a great percentage of increuse. The total number of papers in New York State is
1,523 against 1,399 in 1883. Canada
has shared in the general increase.

Joaquin MILLER wears a moustache and goatee, a Derby hat cocked
on the side of his head, tight light
trousers, toothpick boots, and over
all a big, twilled Newmarket, of
which he seems more proud than
even he was of his untamed locks.
He writes manifold letters at $10
apiece—fine pay it is considered to
be, too.

the breaking of the Milton dam uncovered the ledge, and a few days
ago it was discovered by a party who
stumbled upon it. The ledge is

walls, which are of slate formation.
The ledge runs northeast and southwest and can be traced for milea in
Yuba and Nevada counties. Twenty-five locations have been made

But to get rations or anything else up in

Culled from the mass of reasons why Me.
Sherman was right, be good enou h to consider these: First, PARKER'S TONIC is delicious to the’ palate; second it invigorates,
