It is interesting in this connection to compare the amount of gold and silver coin in use by two great nations as $650, 900,000 ; France, $1,000,000,000, That is, the United States, producing more gold and silyer than any other nation, and having nearly 20,000,000 more population than France, have —-$350,000,000--less coin than the The statisticians . estimate the world’s gold and silver from the earliest times to the presTotal amount obtained, $25,673,374,000 ; amount. now in existence, $13,276,000, 000. — What has become of the missing $12,397,374,000 is left to conjecture. It is interesting to note that at the present rate of production it would require but about seventy-five years for the mines uf tlie world to double the amount of the precious metals in existence, and the mines of the United States alone-would accomplish that result in less than two centuSrxrgkn States have. grown more rapidly than California during the last ten years ; if we exclude the there are twenty-six States which have gained “There is not a State in the Uabae which holds out better inducements,, than California; we . have progreased 90 slowly because the Chinese are occupying the pres‘THERE seems,” she says, ‘49 bea vast difference to men’s eyés, between the tweedle-dee of an outer dress and the tweedle-dum of underclothing. -I can’t understand why, but it ‘Nine men out of ten will rush "wildly to the window to see a woman in — white across-the way, and ' disappointed . when they at the snowy garment is 8 § Be HUNTING MICKEY. ‘A mear miver Mydrauttcer Whe is Wan J. P, Hickey, owner of the hydraulic mines situated about half a mile below Dutch Flat, and formerly owned by the Cedar Creek Company, is wanted. On the 6th instent the Supervisors of Sutter county began a suit in the Superior Court of. Colusa county to ‘restrain him from dumping debris into Beer river. The Appeal says that some difficulty in serving the injunction was anticipated, and nounnecessary publicity was given the case. Afterthe injunction was issued it became a problem to find Hickey, Hickey is owner, President, Superintendent, Secretary and Board of Directors, all in one. In the deed conveying the mining property tohim, Hickey is described as a resident of San.Francisco, Search was accordingly made for him in San. Francisco, but he could not be found. The most diligent exertions of specjal officers failed to bring Hickey to light.._He had probably discovered that he was in demand, and to a man of his retiring disposition such a discovery would but havé the effect of increasing his natural inclination to shun-the haunts of men. A few days ago a bungling attemp3 to find Hickey was made at Dutch Flat, resulting in the ‘giving away” of the whole business, The Associated Press correspondent telegraphed to headquarters, and there was an end to all secrecy in the matter. The following shows how the cat was let out of the bag : “Durcn Frat, April 2lst,—A special officer from Sutter county arrived here on the night of the 18th, with injunction papers to serve on J. P, Hickey, i ina debris suit brought by Sutter county in the Colusa county Court. He registered at the hotel as W. H. Phillips, of Chico, insinuated. himself into the confidence of our people as a cattle dealer, pretending that several carloads would arrive in a day or two, and employed some boys to assist him. One of our citizens suspected his true business, obtained his confidence and the full particulars from his own lips before he had been in town five hours, and subsequently, with the other parties interested, enjoyed the mysterious proceedings of our neigh bor’s bright slickens officer, who sneaked into our midst like a thief, instead of an officer of an honorable Court to enforee the Jaw.” At last accounts Mr. Hickey was still in retirement. Probably he will emerge again, as did Superintendent McMurray, when he gets ready. RAILROAD TAXES. Attorney General Hurt’s Opinion on the Question. The question of the payment or nonpayment of railroad taxes is just now of much interest to the people of Nevada county who have through their District Attorney brought suit against the Central Pacific to recover taxes for two years. Attorney General Hart in his recently delivered Opinion says that the compromise proposed by the railroad. companies is but another name for the exercise of supervisory power over the State Board by local authorities, and the reduction of assessments made by that Board, whether directly made, or made under another name, would be a violation of the fundamental principles of the Constitution, and therefore void; that an interference with the assessment made by the State Board-would necessarily result, in contemplation of law, in the creation of inequality of taxation; that any attempt at compromise of such taxes would. be in excess of the power of the Board of Supervisors; that the effect of such proceedings is to confess a,doubt as_to the validity of our fundamental law, in a respect which is of the most vital importance to the people, and to permit the parties assessed in such cases practically to assess themselves; that if there be any doubt as to the validity of those provisions of our Constitution which authorize such assessments to be made, it is better that we should suffér the temporary incorlvenience resulting from a litigation of that subject, than that the State should surrender to the tax-payer; it is better that we should know whether our Constitution is valid or invalid ; and to that end, should test the question, even at the risk of losing the whole of the tax for a few years. If our Constitution is iv conflict with the Constitution of the United States, it is of the highest importance that we learn that such is true at the earliest practical moment, in order that we may’ make one. that will stand the test of judicial. scrutiny ; but it is respectfully suggested that compromise now will necessitate and this the State cannot afford.
