SCRA, ae airecietnereee preteen ion tenncene nme SATURDAY, DEC. 28th, 1867. —== 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 ‘setved. ' Thdse who purchased tickets for the Christifias bal, dnd could not attend, will be admitted free. Tickets for the danee to-night will be $1 50. ’ 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. ~~ oe THE report of the General Land Office Commissioner shows,among other things, that the United States is 3,000 miles in advance of England on our routes to China, Japan, and the Indjes." 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 ‘ mailes in course of constriction, had tauéh to say in relation to the re~. District Attorney Caldwell appeared ‘sends a letter from that place, which is . 41; for city and county, $2,038,349 89. 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, WE learn from the Carson Appeal that our young friend Andre Maute, formerly an atiache of the TRANSCRIPT office, where he learned his trade, has formed a co-partnership with Charles Friend, in the stationery and cigar business, at Carson City, Nevada. We wish Andre the greatest success in his new enterprise. ' ; 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 risking upon it one of his millions. NAPOLEON III. bought Biarritz for $60 when it was a bare waste,reclaimed it from the sea and: from sterility, made it the picturesque village it now is, and one of the most fashionable watering places in France. q Mrs. Mary Ann Poland, of New Roston, Mercer county, Ohio, wishes to learn the whereabouts of her husband, M.

Abbot,6f Sheffiéld, EiigConstables tomake arrests, but claimed . land, writing to the Department of Agriculture at Washington, says: “It is stated in the 7imes that of the wheat importations during the month of August, amounting to 3,295,622 cwt., forty ‘per cent. Was supplied by Russia, and nineteen per cent. by BRrussia. The United States stand next, our _proportion being ten percent., thus indicating & commencement of the promised revival of this branch of American trade. Last year, in July, the United States sent only 8,000 ewt,, but in August of this year there were sent 337,224 cwt.” > Gorne SouTHwarp.—The county of 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 to. San Francisco. Many are in favor of accepting the proposition, but it has 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. ‘ DrpTHEeRt4.—Another lot of Mrs, M A.
