Much ‘astonishment is expressed that coun— tries hitherto thought to be almost ex— clusively devoted to mining for the precious metals should already have as -to-be able to compete with older and. _ bread markets of the world.” More’ as— tonishmentavill be* caused by the full . —-ReovaL-LIt will be remembered, says the Record, that Governor Low appointed Stephen Venard an aid -de camp, with the rank of Lieutenant Col* ‘. onel, for personal bravery, in capturing three stage robbers in Nevada county. Among"the late appointments of Gov, Haight, we fing that of “C, W. Crocker, vice Stéve~-Venard, removed.” We have never heard the politics of the robbers put out of the way so suddenly by their encounter with Venard, but the inference is left by this removal that the Democracy lost three voters by that event and that the Governor intends to retaliate; tosome extent,uporn the brave officer for diminishing his vote. Gov. Haight has offered a feward of $200 for the arrest and delivery into custody of the Sheriff of El Dorado eounty, of one “Indian Bill,” who was Dickinson’s Quadrille Class will meet at National Hall, on Wednesday evening, at 8 o'clock. ‘These meetings partake more of the nature of a pleasant social party than a school, and at the same time those who attend are enabled to learn the new dances. Let all who want to spend a pleasant evening come out to-morrow -evening: = 'THANKS.—We are indebted te Senator Belden for copies of the report of the Directors of the State Prison, and also for-the-report of the Secretary ef the Board of 'l'rastees of the Agricultural, Mining-and Mechanic Arts College. 2 Wikre 1s HE ?—Marcia Blodgett writes to-ascertain the whereabouts ‘of James Murray, or any information concerning—him.Her address -is--West Stafford, Conn. statement of the wheat product.and export of California for 1867, the one ex— ceeding the value of the gold product and the other employing a fleet of 223 ships and reaching a value of over $16,000,000. The New York Herald may well predict this State will “emancipate herself from the market control of the Western States and New York shipThe anticipation of the same paper that the products of gold will diminish with “the diversion of labor to fixed employments,” is not so well founded. The gold product of California has indeed fallen from $50,000,000 to. $25,000,00 per annum ; but this is due chiefty to the comparative exhaustion. of the placer mines, and to the distribution of, our mining population over new gold fields in‘adjoining Territories. All who are familiar with the present condition and tendencies of the mining interest transfer of labor and capital to quartz, directed by economical ‘and scientific -methods, will increase the present product largely, with a much smaller numgings. re Another bearing of the relation of ‘the wKeat to the gold crop is in its in= fluence on the current of exchange and bullion shipments, The flow of treasure to countries consuming our breadstuffs ig less heavy relatively; and attended by more reciprocal advantages. increased, anda large ¢ash surplus-is yearly available for investment in home . enterprises, and as manufactures, new branches of trade, and improvements in modes of travel. and living. Externally, our wheat exports must tend to equalize the food markets;and perhaps, as suggested by the journal already quoted, by steadying the supply. of gold render the rate. of wages more uniform, ovale ai REFORM GOES 9N.—The Democrats the late election, now that they have got into office are redeeming their pledges,in a‘horn. This is the way they do it in San Francisco. The city Treasurer is endeavoring to get an increase’ of salary. The Assessor wants more clerks than his predecessor—as does the -Recorder, and the Sheriff wants three more porters than were employed under the last administration. In every department of local and State government the Democrats are endeavoring tomake~more-roomfor-hungry-piace hunters, and have entirely forgotten their pledges of reform made to the people. WILL REsist.—A late dispatch states that President’ Johnson declared the ‘Tenure of Office Law and the late reconstruction bill encroachments upon his constitutional authority which he will resist with all the power at his command, With Grant against him, Stanton in the War Department, and Congress controlling the purse strings, “all the power at his command” will not help him. ; "THREE children of James McIntyre, residing at San Francisco, were poisoned by eating mushrooms on the 12th inst.
