‘men were the feature of the procession, and presented-ahighly. ereditable appearance, the Grass Valley
boys turned~out in fine style and .
full force. The Light Guard also
made a good showing, while the
“Young America’’ marine representation received numerous congratulatory remarks. The ‘‘Car of Liberty,’’ with Miss Eliza Cornell as Goddess, surrounded by the fair young
representatives of the States of the
Union, was, as usual, a very attract
ive nent) It was unfortunate the
large sized fire cracker. It is said
that the bomb had been thrown in
the street with the fuse lighted, and
that as the boy was passing it -exploded. A man, whose name we
did not learn, was also quite badly
burned about the neck and shoulders by the same dangerous explosive.
-More Arrrpavits.—Mrs. Fair's
case has been again before the Court,
on motion fora new trial. The testimony as to the improper conduct
of the juror Beach, was fortified by
other affidavits from Deputy Postmaster Peel, Robert Bell, Chas.
Dunn, E. H. Gaylord, 8. B. Weller,
car could not follow the line of march,
its length rendering dangerous the residents of the town of Truekee.—
. They all go to show the same fact,
to be ‘‘dropped out’’ of line on two)
turning of sharp corners, as it had
occasions, and did notgo up Broad
street at all. In the procession we
noticed two miniature carriages manned by miniature firemen, who appeared equally zealous and gallant as
their full grown brethren.
' The procession formed in the
following order: Ist. Marshal and
his Aids; 2d. Washington Brass
Band; 3d. Nevada Light Guard; 4th.
37 ‘Young Americans’’ dressed as
marines; 5th. Car of Liberty; 6th.
Four horse carriage, containing the
President of the day, the Orator,
and Chaplain; 7th. Two horse carriage, containing Chairman of Committee of Arrangements, Chaplain,
Readerand Declaimer; 8th. Dewey's
Brass Band; 9th. Protection Hose
Company of Grass Valley; 10th. Nevada Hose Company No. 1; 11th.
Eagle Hose Company of Grass Valley; 12th. Pennsylvania Engine Co.
No. 2 of this city; 13th, miniature
Hose carriages; 14th. Grocers; 15th.
Butchers, represented by Jas. Colley and Jas. Monro, The heat evidently interfered with participation
by citizens and visitors in the procession, and instead of ‘‘citizens
and visitors on horses,’’ the rear was
brought up by a precocious youth on
a till more precocious donkey,
At about 12 o’clock the procession
was halted in front of the Theatre,
and dismissed, The firemen and
military repaired to their respective
halls, or remainedat the Theatre to
await the conclusion of the exercises
there, before indulging in the ‘‘pleasant pastime’’ of lunch.
The Theatre was soon filled to
overflowing, a large. proportion of
the audience consisting of ladies and
children. The exercises consisted of
music by the Washington Band;
prayer by. Rev. A. P. Anderson;
chorus by Nevada Choral Society—
“God Reep our country free,” ete.;
reading of the Declaration by John
*
A. M, Walker, and W. H. Wells, all
namely, the bias of the juror Beach.
Many a new trial has been granted
upon a weaker showing than is made
in this case by most reliable witnessess.
IrrigaTinG CanaL.—The work of
constructing anirrigating canal along
the west side of the San Joaquin,
from the bend in the river to Antioch,
is progressing rapidly. The width of
the canalis forty-eight feet on the
top, the depth six feet, and with a
full force of 400 teams the work advances at the rate of half a mile a
day. The men employed on the canal are mostly farmers who lost their
crops last year and this, and are now
working to procure seed for another
crop. Since the canal was commenced, and its completion placed
. beyond doubt, the agricultural land
on the west side of the valley has
doubled in value. .
Frencu Exxecrions.—The supplementary elections in France, so far
as reported, have resulted in favor of
the moderate Republicans. A few
of the radical candidates only have
been elected, while the candidates
favored by the league, of anti-monarchical journals, have been successful, So far as it goes, this result
looks like an indorsement of the
Thiers’ government, and strengthens
the hope that a plebiscite would decide in favor of a Republic on a plan
indicated by the policy Thiers has
thus far so successfully pursued.
UNvVEILED.—The large bronze bust
of Washington Irving, in Prospect
Park, Brooklyn, Was unveiled on
the Ist instant, in presence of 15,000
persons. The oration was delivered
by Henry Ward Beecher, He spoké
of the custom amoung the Greeks of
eentive to the efforts. of talent and
‘preferable to retaimjtig in office the
present inctifiibent. His arrogance
and extravagance, his want of sympathy with the masses of the people,
and total inability to comprehend
their wants and condition, make him
entirely unfit for the position which
he holds. The changing of school
books, carried out by his instigation,
lias cost the people of the State some
$200,000, without any corresponding
benefit. We should not accuse Fitzgerald of having a direct interest in
the transaction, but if not, he allowed himself to be the tool of sharpers and swindlers, His place should
be filled by not only an honest man,
self to be used as the tool of others.

John M. Williams and Dayid 0.

Rartr0oaD MisMANAGEMENT.—The
Bulletin of July 1st contains the following signed by Peter Craig:
Last Monday, Alexander Thomson, a resident of Nevada City, died
in San Francisco, leaving two orphan
children at the lodging house where
he had been stopping, who had never before been away from Nevada,
where they were born and always
lived. On Tuesday I started to Nevada by the morning train of the
Central Pacific Railroad, takingthe
ehildren with me. The body was
carefully packed in a coffin and inclosed in a box,.which was-distinctly
Thomson, Colfax,’’ and delivered to
the freight agent on Davis street. I
also saw the proper entry made on
the way bill, and paid $5 60 freight.
Upon our arrival at Colfax, I found
that through the 5 -sohionmsigr of rt
employees of the Company, the y
ed been left at Galt, between Stockton and Sacramento. As the funeral -had been
the next morning, of course this contretemps was very disagreeable, and
indeed the children were almost. distracted. Upon applying to the persons in charge of the office at Colfax,
not only myself, but a committee of
Masons sent from Nevada to receive
the body, were treated with gross incivility, and itwas not till after repeated applications that we sueceeded in having the box forwarded from
Galt, for which having already paid
the full rate of transportation, we
were charged the additional sum of
$10. This is a plain statement of
facts, in attestation of which I sign
my eipep this communication. I
des’ of getting redress from
Neca but ods ought to be
some remedy for such négligence,
discourtesy and extortion.
Tue author of a_ biographical
sketch, in Nature, of John Herschel,
who has just died at the age of 79,
says that indirectly he may be regarded as the father of photography,
inasmuch as he announeed in 1819
thé property of the hyposulphite of
soda to ‘dissolve newly precipitated
chloride of silver almost as readily as
sugar.”” ‘*Tothis property alone it
was owing that, twenty years after,
Daguerre was enabled to practically
realize the hopes of Davy and Wedgewood, that the photographic pictures
they had already obtained might one
day be fixed and preserved.
BenyaMiw Franklin left, in 1791,
to Boston and Philadelphia, each £1,000, to be loaned in small sums to mechanics. He calculated the fund
would reach in one hundred years,
over $650,000, and gave directions as
to itsin¢estment. The Boston Travelersaya the Boston fund amounts to
$142,068 90\and-ts well invested, but
the Philadelphia fund) is less than
$50,000. en a
Bririsx territory in India has recently been the theatre of a formidable Kookie raid. A daughter of a
Kookie chief having ‘died, .a number
with her deadbody, and his subjects
loyally proceeded across the frontier
to collect the requisite material.
Tux statues of Roger Sherman and
Jonathan Trumbull, ordered by the.
State to be placed in the Capitol at

every deseription in the United States
in round numbers, $13,000,000,000,
against $10,500,000,000 in 1860,
showing an increase in value of $2,500,000,000,-or nearly 25. per cent,
within the decade in which the rebellion occured; from 1850 to 1860, the
increase was from $6,000,000,000 to
$10,500,000,000, an increase of $4,500,000,000, or 75 per cent. In 1860
slaves were counted as property.
Valuing 5,000,000 slaves at an average price of $300, accounts for the
act of emancipation. Separating the
two sections, the South has largely
decreased in wealth, the falling off
being nearly 50 per cent, while the
rest of the ¢ountry has increased from
$6,500,000,000 in 1860, to $10,800,000,000 in 1870, an increase of nearly 68 per cent.
In personal propertpy,i.e., in
wealth, excepting lands and the
buildings on them, the non-slaveholding States increased about 47 per cent,
against 95 per cent, in the decade 1850
and 1860. Inthe slave States the absence of slave valuations and the loss
of personal property during the war,
works such a decrease in value of
personal property as shows a loss for
the whole country.
. Forthe decade 1860-70, the increase in value of real estate is 75 per
cent., while for the previous decade
the increase was 64 per cent. This
advance is in part due to higher valuation, and in part toincreased buildings. Whether one value is actualy
more substantial than the other is but
conjecture. In the economics of real
property, its worth enhances according as the occupied circle of which it
is the center expands in structures,
population, is aac with a corresponding depreciation as the movements in trade and population shift.
