BARNES.—The papers have recently
GME, eee:
——
cent sudden conversion of a “windy”
from Unionism to Democracy. The
* Democratic journals generally seem to
_ think they have taken a Jonah into
‘their craft, and the Union papers con‘§ratalate the party on getting clear of
one, Barnes recently made a speech at
_ Baeramento, in which he declared his
lot Would hereafter be with the DeMocracy, and that in the recent cam-—
paign he refused glittering bribes which
vase for Gorham. Pixley comes out in
“@ létter‘and shows that Barnes sought
employment as a “stumper,” but the
committee did not need him and refusedtopay him. But the Zimes apologises for Mr. Barnes. That journal
Says that he was so much elated by the
election of Casserly that he “flopped”
~ under the influence of spiritual inspire—
tion, and that he is true to the Union
“arty, This is the explanation that
Barnes is said to make, and it is about
the strongest manifestation of weakness that we have ever seen. The idea
that a man should become so'élatéd as
to forget his principle, and that his
friends should give this as an excuse
for his conduct is ridiculous. We have
heard the modern doctrine that a party
should honor only those who are not
participants in its contests, and many
other things as ridiculous, but the idea
that joy should cause a man to forget
his principles, “caps the climax.” It
“gets us” beyond a question.
‘Pat Gree Ciop Party—The Ger.
man Glee Club Harmonie will give a
party this evening at Temperance Hall.
dancing will commence at 8 and end
at 12 o'clock, and a supper will then be

’ Pusiac Scmoon Exurerrion.—At
Moore's Flat, on Christmas Eve, the
Public’ School under charge of Mr
T. A. Slicer gave an exhibition, after
which presents were distributed from a
Christmas tree to the children. The
_ exercises, consisting of recitations, dia.
logues and singing were very interesting. Alter the exhibition the elder per,
_ sons had a dance and between sixty
"and seventy dollars was raised for the
school.
Tue Youre Mmn’s Socta, Ciun—
The first Party of the Young Men’s Social Club for the present season will be
, given at National Hall on New Year's .
evening. Excellent music has been secured and the managers have made every effort for the enjoyment of their
guests. Dancing will commence promptly at 8 o'clock and continue until 12.oN
THE new school building at Grass
Valley is about completed, and nearly
paid for from the School Fund. It cost
in the neighborhood of $5,000. The
Trustees propose to give a grand
ball in the house on the 8th of January,
to raise money to complete and furnish
the building. As the building contains
two very large rooms they will be able
to accommodate a very large company,
I
THe CotoneD PEoPLe’s TREE.—We
'* wnderstand that the Sunday School at
the A.M. E. Church in this city had a
very handsome Christmas tree, and the
children were presented with a number
of Christmas gifts.

THE report of the General Land
Office Commissioner shows,among other
things, that the United States is 3,000

There are 1,400,000,000 acres of public .
land undisposed of, in which is included
_ out Walrussian purchase ; and there
ard 87,000 miles of railroad already completed, which, counting from the time
of cing to build {hem, averages

Was attempting to artest Murphy on
Judge Palmer yesterday morning, and
plead “not guilty.” Their trial was set
for 2o’clock, P. x.
for the prosecution and Judge Reardan
‘for defendants. The evidence showed
that Hammond was deputised by the
Justice, and the prosecution admitted
that deputy Constables were only authorized to act where Justices were authorized: to appoint by statute, and that
the law gave no power to appoint special
that any private citizen, having sufficient information to satisfy him that an
offence had. been committed could ar—
rest. It was further shown . that
Gillis was informed by Hammond
that he had arrested Murphy before
he interfered. The testimony showed
that Shortell did not hear Hammond
say he wanted to arrest anybody, and
only interfered to prevent trouble. Af.
ter examination he was discharged and
Gillis was placed under bonds of $2,000
to appear-before the next Grand Jury.
¢
BROTHER EARLE Wants To RETURN.—The Rev. A. BR. Earle, revivalist
and evangelist, has got back to his
home in Newton,! Massachusetts, and
published in the Christian Advocate.
the course of it he says:
“T take this methed of expressing my
thanks to the ministers and members of
eleven denominations of Christians,
with whom I labored so pleasantly. I
also thahk the citizens, among whom I
passed, fora warm welcome and liberal
support in every place. In every home
and church I was received not as a stranger, but as a welcome guest. And
when I passed out through your’Golden
Gate, and could no longer look’ upon
your beautiful green hills and fruitful
valleys, and thought that I might never
again look upon your smilling faces, or
feel the warm grasp of your hands,
tears would flow. And I have often
offered the earnest prayer, ‘Lord, send
me to labor, at least one season more,
on the Pacific Coast’ I hope I may
return another year.”
In
THE Government in India has appointed e Commission to examine -and
report on the historical buildings in the
several provinces of India,some of which
have an antiquity of nearly 3,000 years,
with a view to their conservation. Photographs, plans and measurements, it is
said, are‘ to be systematically taken and
published,
SaLMon.—The Marin county Journal
of December 14th, says that since the
late rains Nicasio Creek has literally
swarmed with salmon. The natives
and gringos are having fine sport catching them with spears, hooks, rakes,
forks, clubs, axes, etc. “One rusty resident corralled four fine ones with a bovtjack,

JAMES Gordon Bennett is 71 piece
old, and is worth $3,000,000. And the
canny old Scot talks, it is said, of starting a daily paper in San Francisco and

to the San Francisco,and San Jose Railroad, taking stock of the company as
security. The bonds weré to be redeemed by the ruilroad company, but they:
have not been, as per agreement ; hence
the county has sued the company. In
this condition of affairs, the company
proposes to surrender to the county
$100,000 of these bonds, and bind themselves to extend their road from San
Jose to Gilroy within two years, on condition that the county shall redeem the
remaining $100,000 of bonds,:and re—
lease its claim on the company’s road

not yet been acted on officially.
“BARNUM says that his beast having a
tail is no sign he is nota gorr‘la, as the
tail is only sewed on.
dt is said a movement is being made
in Paris to have the Papacy transferred
from Rome to Jerusalem.
ELprER Knapp, they say, is “sweep—
things” at Stockton. Sinners, the most
hardened, are daily being brought to
see the error of their ways, and before
long he will have Stockton “converted”
into another city. We wish the Reverened gentleman would hurry up this
way. We think it about time that the
“dry bones” of our city were shaken up
a little. ‘
