Still Improving.
‘The visiter to Gras¢ Valley can
mot fuil to mark improvements on
every hand. The town afew years
age‘presented a very shabby appearance; The buildings were allowed
to go withont repairs, and the streets
‘were covered with old worn out
planks, and were simply horrible. .
‘Now everything is chemged. New
buildings, repaivs onold ones, and.
splendid streets are the rule. We
went out through Pike Flat-the:
other day, while in GrassValley, to
see that part of town, and to see
if there were. not some obscure streets
-where alittle neglect. could _ be
‘charged to Marshal Collins. We did
come to a place where the high water
had partly undermined a little bridge
_ there, and was congratulating our. .
selves on the pleasure of driving into town and informing the Marshal
that hig services were needed out in
the suburbs; but. our pleasure was
son interrupted, for on turning the
corner there was the Marshal with a
full force at work. We believe the
town has better streets than it ever
had before, and fat they ure almost
as good as those of our own town.
Altogether Grass Valley is looking.
well, and the prospects for a successful future were never better.
_ -Wery Gratifying.
The Bulletin of the 6th has a.
leader on ‘‘What Irwin never Wanted
to Know,” in which it shows that
Irwin dare not tell the House Inves—
“tigating Committee; how he used his;
ption fund, because by 50
doing he would have made hintself
indictable. for a penal offense, and
become equ r guilty under the law,
with the men who took the money
and placed it ‘‘where it would do the
most good.” us ae: be very
_ gratifying to. the Bulletin te discover
that Irwin won't tell where ‘all’ of
that $750,000 went to, It is safeto
guess that he won’t tell where the
$100,000 was placed that was sent to
San Francisco, The Bulletin can}
‘tell why Butler was defeated, {but
don’t care to press Irwin to make a
‘clean breast of Pacific Mail corruption, oe
School Books. are
We again repeat the question.—
TENS
‘Why is there such a determined opposition made to the introduction of
the Pacific Coast series of readers
and
nothing said about the change ‘in
Geographies or writing books:;” ‘The
/ former are introduced without ex” pense to parents, while the latter .
have to-be bought at about regular }
tates. A suit has been brought. to
prevent the introdaction of the read;.
ers and nothing said of other changes.
_ Can anyone explain the riddle?

Short ‘Sessions.
The Bourd of Education of .Oakland have adopted the rule of making the daily sessions of Primary
‘schools shorter by one half. The
schools are divided into two classes,
and one class attends in the forenoon and one in the afternoon. We
believe the change a good _one, and
think if it was adopted generally
much good would result. Some of
the Primary ychools of Grass Valley,
where over a hundred are in attend‘ance, would certainly realize great
benefit from such a change. Three
.qonrs,islong enough to keep chil‘dren in a school room.
Boretany at Buus Canyon.—The
Railroad office at Blue. Canyon was
“broken into,. Monday : evening, Feb.
Ast, by burglars, while the Agent
was.at supper. The barglars pried.

and carried it off with, its contents. . ,

seventy feet in length. The platform in front is high enough 0 load
and unload goods on it without the
usual aniount of lifting. A railroad
track runs from the platform .to ‘the
farther end of the store, and passes
over @ set of Howe’s platform scales,
so that everything can. \ be weighed
in and out of the store. The interior of the building is ‘neatly fitted
up, and i is well filled with groceries
and variety goods, Mr. George
commenged business some years ago
in Grass Vality on a small ‘scale, but

firemen to that state outsiders should
not interfere in time of.afire. .The
fire companies are organized for the
purpose of, \protecting the town from
the ravages of a fire, and they be
lieve, if let alone, they can subdue
any conflagration. Their effectiveness is frequently impaired by officious persous not, belonging tothe

want to assist, but they are only a-. '

they understand their business,

Sudden Death,
A telegraphic dispatch * was recéiv-.
Marysville, stating that J. McReardan, brother of Hon. T.B. Reardau,.
died suddenly at that place on ‘Sunday ‘last. McReardah was well
known in this city, and his many acquaintances here will regret to learn
New Livery Stable.
John Majors andJ. Graham have
leased the Union stable on. Main
street, and will put in afine stock
. of horses and carriages, and do a
general livery business. Both gentlemen are posted on horses, and in
tend purchasing only the best. The
railroad will increase livery business in town, and there will no
doubt be enough to support two
. stables.

We learn from Dan Baker ‘that
the téamsters’ bridge over Bear
river, has been repaired, and is now
in a condition to allow leaded teams
