em” te Daily Branscript _ NEVADA, CITY: PAle, a The New School Law. For the benefit of allwho take an interest in school matters, we publish #ome’ 6f thie provisiont of the . . new school law, which. goes into effect the Ist of a, 18733 % Professtonat Teachers pdssessing first grade certifichtes aré alone eligible-to the office of County Superin~ tondent. Temporary amp se any grade may be issued. In counties containing “twenty ._,thonsand inbabitants or upwards, the Superiitendent must devote his whole time to the supervision of the Schools in. his county. School grounda, where’ practicable, must be adorned with fruit and ornamental trees and shrubbery. The State Teachers’ Institute is abolished. Union Grammar Schools of two ‘or more contiguous districts are abol—ished. A census marshal must not be, an acting teacher. Instraction must be given in the following branches in the severat grades in which Wh may be required, viz: reading, writing, orthography, arithmetic, geography, grammer, history ot the United States, physiology, natural philosophy; natural his' vooal music; and industrial drawing, Every applicant for an educational diplonta, or for a ‘State certificate ot the first or second grade, must be ~~ examined by writtex or printed -and . vial questions, in algebra, arithmetic, grammar, composition, geography, history of the United States, physiology, natural philosophy, natural history, orthography, defining, " penmanghip,reading, and the method of teaching, vocal music and drawing. The life diploma must be iscaret sued to such persuns only as have “peein_engagedfor ten yearsin-teach-. ing and-have teceived the educational diploma, or who, ‘after receiving such educational diploma, have held for ore year the office of State or City} — ®chool Superintendent. State educational diplomas must be issued: stat auch persons only as have been employed in teaching for five years. The standing of each applicant in each study and in the class must be _ indorsed on the back of each certifi“gate, otherwise it is not‘a legal certifieate: Im cities having graded echools; beginners shall be taught for the first two years by teachers who have had at least four years’ ex_perinioe, and such teachers shall rank in point of salury with those of firat grade. The County Saperintendents must certify to the State Board of Examination the names of persons examined before County Boards of Examination; State certifleates of the sevond grade are valid . for three years; State certificates of the third grade fortwo years. The Code, by cutting off the two appointed members, reduces the State Board of Education to the Governor, the Superintendent of Public Instruction Yhe Principal of the—State Normal Schoel, and. the Superintendents of San Francisco, Sacramento, Santa ‘Clara, [Alameda, Sonoma, and San Joaquin counties. State School Fund. The Oode provides that two-hundred and forty thousshd dollars must be raised aiintally for the Bchool Fund. Into this fund goes besides the interevt on State School bonds, and the interest on bonds of the State of Caltornia held by State Treasurer. The Scorn of the poll tax must t be — eee How ‘‘Schmart.” The Grass Valley Union has struck a large sized mare's nest. In our report of the Supervisor's doings, we stated that the Deputy Assessor was instrdeted to assess money in Savings’ Bank, of John Corbett, of Grass Valley;’’ whereat the Union is enabled to make up an item to help fill out its Jocal column. We are glad it was published that way for the Union's sake, and wonder why hat paper did not pick up a few to fill up with. We exdeavor . w ae etal cist peony and it ig. efile gikle to par-) ta brief but earnest address to the anything. and hoped when ke bein’ . Gold Rin'ravine, the flume therein @ itema of the Board of} Michael Reest and His Little!’ Homésteads. eae The open-hearted, fuli-breasted, : ‘\Whole-sduled Michiel Reese, appeared before the Board of Equalization . at. ‘Ban Francisco, asking 0 reduetion. of ent on thirty-seven ge sepas vate parcel of city wraperty,” Mr. Reeseis one of the most solid men in thes State—weighs about 300, and pays out about $50,000 a year in taxes. He’sa whole taxpayer's ticket . in himself. His application for_reduction did not apply to mre thar one-sixth of his property.. He made . Board. Said he did not wish tohide to’back out:he ‘would die immediately.. He neyer.played a ‘‘block) game,’’ and verily, believed that if he . lived twenty-five years and should be have a lot left at the end of that time. He said he had indorsed for one man to the tune of $650,000, and amid muck merriment stated that he never collected rents; says the Chronicle. The applications of Mr. Reese referred to thirty-seven parcels of préDerty which the Assestor had valued at about $780,000. Michael wanted this reduced ty about $480,000, just to knock off the odd $300,000, you know. Tlie matter was referred to the usual committee. a Heavy Sale of Mining greeny W. H. Kinder sold to the Gold Run Ditch and Mining Company, for the sum of eighty thousand. dolJars, the following mining property in Gold Run Mining District:Twofifths, undivided,of the Druid claims; one-half, undivided; of the Gould Run claims; one-half, undivided, of the and the mining ground belonging thereto, extending up the ravine as far as the Rawley claim; one-half undivided, of the Bay State claims Number T'wo; the Melchling claims; the Pine Top claims; Kindet’s right, title and interest in the Red Dog claims; three-fourths, undivided, in ‘the Kinder & Co, tail flume, in Squires’ Canyon; Kinder's interest in the Abel & €o., flume,. being a remaining term of three leases of undivided part, together with tenements. tools and machinery, Thus it appears that within a brief period; to say nothing of small transactions to the amount of $20,000 or less, there have been sales of mining and ditch . property in the Dutch Flat and Gold Run Districts, by James Teaff for } $100,000, by Bradley & Gardiner for . $375,000 and by W. H, Kinder for $80,000,~ ort three sales aggregating tive hundred und fifty thousand dollars: So we learn” from the Stars and Stripes. = Railroad Mistake, ~~ In yesterday's TRanscrrpt we published the sworn statement of E. Black Ryan, agent of the Central Pacific Railroad Company,as follows: Tne Assessor of said county -has assessed said property for the years 1872-3 as follows, 7 . 30-25 miles of railroad and telegraph tine at $14,000 per mile, $363,000 00 ‘30.25 miles rolling stock, 100,813 0U Building and structures on Bummit and ‘Fruckee; 19,000 00 653,813 00 This is exactly as it appears in the statement, and the reader will see that the footings make it $171,000 more than it really is. We did not add the figures up, presuming that it was correct. We call attention to the matter only for the object of showing that it was not an error of ours. > At It Again. The Grass Valley Union says that “it is reported at Nevada City that small pox is epidemic here."’ That is the tirst we have heard of any such report, and we think we have as good an opportunity of knowing it as the . Gnion's informant. fu order to shield that paper from the indignation of the people, the Union endeavors to cast the blame upon a ‘Nevada paper.” You are welcome to all the capital you can make out of it.— We don’t care a tinker's—pinch of The examination of Villain,charged with murder at Kate Hayes Flat on Sunday last, was going on at Birchville yesterday.

The Beanitner ‘hoists the name of Horace, Greeley. @t the head of its column as the. ‘chief Demo‘cratigstandard bearer, and says that his nomination is due to his *‘ster‘ling hénesty”’ and ‘“agnanimity.”” “ Thé magnahimity «to which the Be. aminer refers may’ possibly he eontained in the following, uttered by, the Tribune of November 26th, 1860: When the rebellious traitors are overlike leaves before an angry wind, it must not be to retir® to pebeefut and contented homes: ‘They manst, find povertyag their fir'e-sides, and see privation in the anxious eyes of mothers at? the tage of chikren.”’ Is it for this that. the Haaminer proious? ao A Fraud. We have received. from the pid. lishers a piece of sheet music, entitled “Our Next President,” this title page of which is embellished with what purports to be a portrait. of Horace Greeley. ‘Fhe musicis good, but the pictare is » fran@ of the frtst. water, The absurdity of trying to palm off on th pedple of this country the picture of a respectable lookwith an immaculate shirt collar neatly turned over a fashionable vest and confined with a shoo-fly neck-tie, artistically arranged, is only equalled by itsimpudence, It won't go down. We know the slovenly old cuss better than that. So says the San Jose Mercury. Sls A Mistraxz.—The Nevada Transcrrpr makes the following statement the text for some malicious comments: The San Francisco Bulletin published an article a few days ago, in which it attempted to show that the interior of the state was on the decline. The Bulletin published no such article; on the contrary it published one going to tac that the general condition and prospeets of the whole State are excellent.—San Francisco Bulletin. ‘When we wrote the answer to the article on the ‘‘Decay of the Interior,’’ we believed then, and do now, that it was published in the Bulletin, but yet we might be mistaken. At any-rate, inorder to allay any feel. ing in the matter, we accept the Bulletin’s apology. The Glenbrook Park Jockey Club haye had the race track placed im first rate condition, and have perfected arrangements to have it sprinkled as much as may be needed during the Sammer and Fall. Ata meeting of the club on Thursday, a race was made up between John Lawrence's chesnut horse Dick and E. O. bgp soon bay mrare Flora, to be-run-on Saturday, August 10th, for $15 ‘aside; single dash of 600 yards, catch weights. It is probable that other races will come off the same day.

Dr. Dusss, a physician of St, Louis, while in a fit of insanity, inflicted @ painful wound upon his wife witn a pocket knife, and then cut ‘his own throat and stabbed himself in the stomach mortally. A NARROW gauge railroad, 147 miles in length, is being constructed from St. Louis to Cairo. One hundred miles of the grading will be finished by the Ist of July. It is $15,000 per mile, Tur Dew 2 News says twentythree miles of the Utah Northern Railroad are now completed, and two trains run daily each way.

We are-informed by parties that were in the neighborhood that as soon as the smoke appeared. the inhgbitants of ‘that portion of the Valley turned out en masse to aid in putting out the fire, and through their efforts its pro‘gress was stopped sooner ‘than could have been reasondbly expected.— About thre¢ hundred acres of grain were déstroyed and two hundred acres of stubble burned.. The fire will be another warning to our farm‘. ers to use extraordinary precautions . to protect their crops from destrac. Mgines in the grain fields at this season of the year is attended with. great risk, and none should be tolerated that are not perfectly-constructed, so. as to guard against sparks from the smoke-stack falling into the d?y.and combustible straw and chaff with.which the ground is covered. So ‘Bays the Stockton Independent. es Tur Cicar Boar ARRIVED. —A man named Goodenough, made a singular ocean trip, recently, in a small cigar-boat, from Washington Territory to San Francisco, a distance of fifteen hundred miles, which he accomplished in twenty-two days.
The boat measures twenty-two feet in length, three and one-half feet beam, draws twenty inches of water, and is so built that it will hold but one man, An oblong hole in the centre, about five feet long, holds the man, provision, ete. He set sail} c from Seattle on the 6th of June, with twenty-one gallons of water. He of oars, a lamp, an army overcoat, a blanket and a musket. He raised a small sail and started. whenever he felt like it: He arrived in San Francisco, safe andsound, om the 28th June. Fhe boat is now on exhibition at Woodward's Garden. —-+ @ Tur aggregate popular vote for President in 1868 was about 5,788,. 000, At the present time the population of voters of alien nationalities, including the colored voters, is as 55,000 are in the Northern and 56,000 m the border States. .

They traveled 55,000 miles and gave 1,400 entertainments. Tus Santa Barbara Press says that there are at least one hundred square ‘miles of Government land in that county, perfectly adapted to the cultivation ofthe finest varieties of grapes, olives, and nuts. Tux little son of DS Allen, of Oakland, has been missing from his home ever since the Fourth. The: last that was seen of him he was fishing off the railroad wharf.
