By wHat AvTHORITY?—The Town
Trustees of Grass Valley have appointed a
Board of Registration for the charter
*election which is to take place in that town,
ou the first Monday in May. The Trustees of Nevada have diligently searched
the Registry Act, and can find nothing in
it authorizing them to appoint officers of
election. The authority is vested in the
Board of Supervisors by law, and no pro-}
vision is made for the appointment of such
“officers in incorporated towns. We do
not know where the G Valley Trustées find the authority fér their action. —
We believe that the corporate authorities
in Sacramento, kton and a number of
other towns Have appointed officers, and

HEENAN IN TROUBLE.—The New York
Hwening Post of January 28th, says: As
Policeman Dennis was walking his beat
yesterday, on Broadway, the following
note was handed him by a lady:
“Mr. OrricerR~I believe it is against
the law to allow gambling on week days,
but in particular on Sunday. John C,
Heenan’s_ , No. 762 B way, is now
in full blast. Myhusband is now there,
withhis last hundred. For God’s sake
scare them out, if nothing more, and much
oblige a woman who is afflicted with a
gambling husband.” :
A sergeant and section of men out of uniform at-onee visited No. 762, arrested Heenan, Louis Baker, Wm. Russell,. James
Billings, Charles Miller and Wm. Johnson,
and captured two faro tables, dealing box,
cue box, card rack, lay-out, game-keeper,
several packs of cards, and 360 fine ivory
checks. ,
THE SUGAR PLANTATIONS OF LOUISIANA.
Sugar plantations are in the market now
at unusually cheap rates. One, situated
about 58 miles above New Orleans, containing 1,859 arpents, fine, commodious
dwelling-house, built of brick, and improvements an extensive brick sugar-house
with machinery complete, cabins for 8
laborers, was lately sold for $82,800.
Terms, one-fourth cash ; balance, one, two
and three years. This estate made in 1850,
an average season, 250 hogsheads of sugar.
Before the war this plantation with. the
negroes attached, was valued at $150,000.
It is not an extreme case. A New Orleans
paper says thatit will requireabout $25,000,000-in the way of loansto replace the
losses sustained by the sugar-planting interest of Louisiana, and to place the
several hundred plantations in good working condition. Eventhen the scarcity of
labor will present serious discouragements,
Finest ApPLE.—The Santa Cruz Sentinel
of the 16th, says: “We were shown by
J. McElwee, an apple just picked from «
tree in the rear of Drs. Peabody & Afiderson’s office, about the size ofa ey egg.
It contained seeds, was sound and properAy formed, and we claim for it the credit of
the first apple of the season. Who can
beat it?” eine
Susrrcr6us CHARAcTERS.—The Folsom
Telegraph says that section of country art
pears to be infested with thieves and robbers. Hardly a day passes but suspicious
looking characters are seen in town. * Par.
ties compelled to travel should be prepared
for the. Knights of the road—to give them
& warm reception.
THE Detroit Post tells of a young Italto that city from Chatham, Canada, a dis.
tance offorty miles, to see Ristori. Arrived at Detroit he pawned his harp to purchase a ticket, and unable to—pay—for—a
night's lodging,he sleptin a police stationgreat genius of his native land.
THERE are 1,116 bodies in the Seldier’s
—Ten of them are Union soldiers.
THE Legislature of Wisconsin is taking
measures to compel railway companies in
that State to reduce their fare and freight
charges.
