canedistt danas ie The politicians Toughest the Bars are actively, engaged in arranging the wires for ‘ the nominations next Fall. In.the Democratic party there is evirong. d ation to beat wate hee “4 6 Governor in his letter mcs “évidently from his language, much against his-will, to sacrifice himself for. the good of the State, end modestly assumes the position of the defender of the people. The : Reporter evidently don’t like the Governér, and appéars'to be familiar with his record, “which the same,” it pro— ceeds to explain, by showing that the Governor signed every railroad aid bill, except one, passed by the last Legislature, and in one case a heavy tax was saddled upon the country to build a mythical railroad, without even per~ mitting the taxpayers to rote on it.— Bat “the Governor tras" many friends, “and they are determined to make the best fight forhim. They have already caucassed in Sin Francisco and as we are -told, “represented nearly every county in the State.” While Haight . has many warm friends in his party, he has also many bitter enemies, who are ready to form, any combination for his defeat, Many of these look upon Congressman Johnson as the most available man, and“ we are told-that the forces of Johnson in the north and McCoppin in the south will unite for “this purpose, Such —s combination would be apt-to make it warm for Mr. Haight, and at least so far contrel the Convention that some compromise man -sach as Thomas Fiadley;-of this coun ty, might step in and carry off the laa_Tels. Certain it is that the Democrats of this county begin to talk Findley ’ strong sine’ the withdrawal of Watt from the field, and he will, in allprobability secure the delegation. It is, however, a long time to the end of the fight, and the battle front may change with the Democracy’ before that time. In the Republican ranks politicians ate not se active. This is probably owing to the fact that the party has been beaten in the State, and the leaders ate more anxious to find the man who can make tlie best run than to advance the interests of particular favorites. A number of good men, such as General Redington, Eugene Sullivan, Newton Booth, Pacheco, and others have been mentioned, andwhile they all have many friends, they seem to be less eager than the Democrats, in the prelim~ inaries of the campaign. All matters considered, tlie next contest, in. a local point of view, is likely to be very interesting. The papers are already. warming up for the fight, and the people are beginning to feel interested. After the State Conventions are held we shall have lively times in politics, TRIAL ON A CHARGE oF ROBBERY. There . was a case on trial Thursday afternoon, investigated before Justice Paynter, says the Grass Valley Union, wherein Christopher Stapp was accused of robbery. It appears that George Kress was indebted, or supposed to jbe, to Stapp in the sum of $20, Stapp ‘went to Kress’ place anid demanded the money at the muzzle of a puzzle or at the point of some other weapon. Kress did not produce the money, but Stapp took away a guitar, two boxes of tobaceo, a saw and some other ar ticles. Because Stapp had a pistol or a knife for a writ of attachment, and because he attempted to make himself his own court and officer, he was com~ plained of for robbery. . All this hap~ pened on the Sist of at of January.

Finding that he could not beat Willard himself, Governor Sauisbury supported: Eli Saulsbury, who was elected. Both the Governor and Eli are sirong Methodists, and Willard himself used to be a Methodist local preacher. : Willard is undoubtedly the ablest ‘member of the family,a man of magnetism in debate, quite iprompt: and versatile.

Revenue Department, and further, ‘that stamping the leeds under the said rule the market value of the stock should be taken as a consideration without regard to the par value of the same.” In cases where the market value of the stock cannot otherwise be determined, the actual value of the property conveyed must necessarily be taken as a basis upon which to determine the market value of said stock, and such deeds must be stamped a ingly; with a _fitty—cent atump where the consideration is $500 or lesa, and fifty cents for each additional $500 or tractional part thereof. The Revenue officers on this coast have been instructed that the penalties prescribed for violation of these re quirements be rigidly enforced.
