We notice in. the. railroad bill offered .
to-the Legislature, one_ merit, namely,
it provides that should the counties
through which it passes vote aid, the
counties will be required to issue bonds

_ the county in debt, the payment . of
__gid with an issue of lands atthe rate.
Nevada county would be required to issue $50,000 bonds when ten miles are
conipleted, $50,000 when the line is
when completed to Nevada, making in
all $150,000. But as the county would
issne the bonds it would be held -responsible for their redemption, besides
the interest at 7 per cent. per annum,
up to the time of payment. Butte
county has now an immense debt upon
her hands, and it is already stated that
the road is to be taken up and all the
advantages gained will be lost. Stull
the debt remains a heavy burden upon
give some substantial aid, and if it
could be arranged with proper guards,
we should not object, but the policy of
issuing bonds to roads, with all the
advantages, so far as the binding force
of the engagements are concerned, in favor of the railroad has always proved
a Fuinous policy. This fact may be ascertained by inquiry in regard to the
sentiments of the people, and the con@itien of affairs in those counties where+
bonds have been voted. Our objectians
for we should like to see it built, and
we are ready to cheerfully indorse and
advocate any scheme which will secure
the road without. overburdening -the }
people by taxation and incumbering
which will be almost impossible. if
the friends of the railroad can devise
any scheme which is not’ open to these
objections, we are ready to help them.
“Having not yet seen the bill, we are
not prepared fully to discuss its merits
or to canvass the matter, in connection
with the railroad, which it proposes to

at the lowest éstimate, upon 20 miles
of the line in Nevada county. The
_whole question will come up at the

It is also known that J udge McFarland of the Fourteenth Judicial District, uniformly and upon ail occasions,
refused to permiit the publication of legal notices in either of the Democratic
papers published within his District.
The National copies approvingly a
leader from the Reporter, containing
not think the Watioral would be willing to indorse the\ charge against
Judge McFarland. Tlie editor of the
National may not be fathiliar with the
facts, bata glance at the back numbers of that paper will be sufficient refutation of the.charges. Advertisements
trom Judge McFarland’s Court have
been frequently published in its columns, and even by Republican lawyers.
in contradicting the
statement of the Reporter, we referred
to the Wational and Union to substantiate our denial. If the National can
mention a case where Judge MeFarland has‘interfered with the privilege
of any mav in tbe interest of any paper,
we will cheerfuuy
during his term.
MAN AND WIFE CENTENARIANS.—
It is-stated. ina Rhode Island paper
that there are now living in the town
of Smithfield, in that State, a man.and
his wife, Jonathan and Saloma Buxton,
he being 102 years old and his wife 101.
Both of them aie in the enjoyment of
perfect health, and able to attend to the
management of quite a large farm.
‘Their wedded life. covers.a period of 78
years. ‘They have 9 children living
the oldest being 76 years old, and all of
», them’ have) remarkably youthful appearance. The father of Jonathan was:

The.above is a fair specimen of the
Big-liar of the Reporter. Bigler refuses

which Judge McFarland had no right to

issued from the District Court, it is not

he is responsible for the faithful performance of the work. A case in regard

STEAM power in ships, as was shrewdly predicted by Lord Stanhope seventy
naval supremacy of England; and other
agencies are tending to level still more
the pretentions of the maritime powers. An English correspondent tells
us of a new artifice which will make
the strongest iron cladsin the British
Navy, orin any navy, as vulnerable as
the three deckers of the Agamemnon
days. It is a torpedo, something in the
shape of a sword fish, which, being
swiftly propelled. under water, with its
charge of nitro-glycerine or dynamite,
ean shatter any iron ship it touches.
This invention comes from an Austrian,
who in this way would supply the naval deficiency .of his country. As he’
has not named . it, let. him call it “Peacemaker ;” for certainly no prudent people would think of going to war against
such a terrible piece of chemistry, by

of the steady growth hd prosperity of

facts which carry their own commentary along with them. The public domain amounts to eighteen hundfed
