Geass VALEEY.—On a recent visit to Grass Valley, We were glad to note considerable improvement in the place within the last week, caused by the resumption of Work in the Empire mine, and the ‘prospect that other mines will soon start up again. Capt. Lee has all the hands be needs and couldhave employed a much larger force; . Mr. Crossman, of the North Star mine, has returned and:will immediately proceed to make arrangements for starting up the: North Star. The business men of the town wear smiling countenances, and congratulate themselves and each other upon the fact that the town has ® good prospect before:it. In addition to the older mines, some of the new ones are yielding handsomely. The West Eureka, adjoining the Roannaisa ground,has @ first rate prospect. The’ company propose to:put up machinéry soon, and are confident that thoy have & fortune in the ledge. We are glad to note this evidence of renewed life in our neighboring town. On Tak National says Koopmancbap,the Chinese importer is a Republican. We never heard of him as a politician, but we do know that at Memphis he was with the Democrats, such as Forrest and Pillow, arguing for importing Chinese, and helping in this way to carry out the Democratic platforms of the South, while Mr. Boutwell, a sound Republican, notified the Federal officers at New Orleans that no vessel having on board Coolie immigrants should be allowed to enter that port, and his act is endorsed by the Republican party.

The Commissioner declares that before the application of Gragg Valley'can:Ve docided good and sufficient testimony will be required ou the following points ; . 1st. As to the actual extent and area of the land covered by town improvements which is within the incorporated limits of said town of Grass Valley. 2d. As tu the mineral character of the land embraced within said corporate limits, and whether such Jands are more valuable for purposes of trade and agriculture, or as mineral lands. ‘The Commissioner says the entry of Nevada town site was granted upon ev~« idence that the mines had been mostly worked out and thatthe land was more valuable for trade and agriculture than for inining, THe Cheyenne Argns has the following about the census of Wyoming: As near a8 we Can learn, the census foots up as follows: Laramie county, 3,000 ; Albany, 2,600; Carbon, 1,200.

A Demoératic Jadge, Sharswood, however, declared the law -anconstitutional, but the ‘Supreme Court has reversed his decis-. ion, and the law now stands on the citizens and a terror to Democratic “re~ peaters.” The decision of the Supreme Court coticlades with this energetic language: . It is true there is a kind of liberty this registry law will destroy. It is that licentiousress, that adultrous freedom, which surrenders the polls to hirelings ‘and --vagabonds—onuteasts from home and honest industry; men who have no citizenship or stake in the government—men who will commit perjury, violence and murder itself. To prevent this is the purpose of “his law, and it should have the aid of fair men ot all parties to give it a fair trial and. secure its true end. It may have detects. Doubtless, it it-has ; and what system devised by the wit of man has not? But its defects, if any, should be remedied as they are disclosed by eXperience. : The law is not unconstitutional. It Tis a part of the politival system of the State on which its offices and its very continuence depends. A YOUNG man named Jos. Wagner, living in Charleston, West Virginia, professed to have the power of charming snakes. Last Thursday, having captured a rattlesnake, he was giving somé frien¢s an exhibition of this power. After fondling the snake for a time in his arms, he threw it on the ground and switched it until it writhed in rage. He then took the reptile up in his arms again, and saying . “re you mad ? kiss me and make up,” he put his head in hismouth. The snake bit his touguo, and he dieg in about an hour. ANNA Dickinson.—The Advocate, in reviewing a lecture recently .delivered in San Franciso by Miss Dickinson,says: “Tn her style she. is chaste, delicate unkind criticism. The strongest point made in favor of female suffrage was an argument made in favor of a prohibit ory liquor law. Women, who suffer go much, have the right to shat up drinking shops. God gives them the right to protect themselves and their cbildren, They can only do this at the ballot’ box,” me JOHNNY ALLEN’s Dance Hovsr.— The New York Herald, 16th inst.,says: The Water street dance house peeves meeting and mission movement. it appears is about to be.reinaugurated or revived, and a circular has been issued by the friends of’ the mission asking aid and encouragement inthe furtherance of their work. The meetings at Johnny Alieh’s dance house commen. ced in September, 1868, and after about a month of success the external excitement'died out, but in the ‘following dance House, was secured, which—has ever since been occupied by a missionary family, and is used as a refuge and a place of religious devotion, two meetings being heid there daily. One hundred and twenty-seven women have been recived from the dance houses, and it is believed, permanently reclaimed. Twelve have been sent to Magdalen. In addition to this, fifty abandoned men_have also been reformed. The mission now desires to realize $2,000 to fit up a proper establishment, or $15,000 to secure a site and the erection of a suitable building. The current expenses they estimate at $300 per month. The financial outlay to the present time has been $2,842, of which sum $645 have been contributed by friends. A large amount of clothing donated to the mission has also been distributed. GEORGE T. White, a native of Cana~ da, aged 22 years, and engaged for the past five years as a printer at San Jose, was found dead in his room in the Masonic building, July 27th. A hemor~ rhage of the lungs caused his death. J. A.

His wife may differ with us on. that point however. Mrs. Thumb and Miss Warren are sisters, and it is said the Commodore intends to marry the little Miss; but he says to the contrary ; says there is “a more exfensive range in single life. We consider that remark the best we have heard for a long while. We should say so! The Commodore is young America all over, but said while he was here, that he always “conducted himeelf according tothe laws of the United States,” and“didn’t wish to be known asa rough; at-all;’ and used other ambiguous remarks equally amusing. ‘The Lord said that ‘unless ye~ become as little children, ye cannot enx« ter the kingdom,”’and all we have to say is that these little people will stand a good show on that hand if St. Peter will only leave the key hole open They do not travel. on a special train, as reported; bat are a bigger attraction than many who require a al locomotive and attachments.

The meetings at Johnny Alieh’s dance house commen. ced in September, 1868, and after about a month of success the external excitement'died out, but in the ‘following dance House, was secured, which—has ever since been occupied by a missionary family, and is used as a refuge and a place of religious devotion, two meetings being heid there daily. One hundred and twenty-seven women have been recived from the dance houses, and it is believed, permanently reclaimed. Twelve have been sent to Magdalen. In addition to this, fifty abandoned men_have also been reformed. The mission now desires to realize $2,000 to fit up a proper establishment, or $15,000 to secure a site and the erection of a suitable building. The current expenses they estimate at $300 per month. The financial outlay to the present time has been $2,842, of which sum $645 have been contributed by friends. A large amount of clothing donated to the mission has also been distributed. GEORGE T.

His wife may differ with us on. that point however. Mrs. Thumb and Miss Warren are sisters, and it is said the Commodore intends to marry the little Miss; but he says to the contrary ; says there is “a more exfensive range in single life. We consider that remark the best we have heard for a long while. We should say so! The Commodore is young America all over, but said while he was here, that he always “conducted himeelf according tothe laws of the United States,” and“didn’t wish to be known asa rough; at-all;’ and used other ambiguous remarks equally amusing. ‘The Lord said that ‘unless ye~ become as little children, ye cannot enx« ter the kingdom,”’and all we have to say is that these little people will stand a good show on that hand if St. Peter will only leave the key hole open They do not travel. on a special train, as reported; bat are a bigger attraction than many who require a al locomotive and attachments.
