We copy the following from the Gress Valley Union of yesterday: . We videratund that another propodition will be made in a few days to the Supervisors of San Francisco to furnish that city with an abundant supply of water. The proposition will be made by the South Yuba Canal Company, of-this county, The dams, reservoirs and canals of the company command a vast supply of water, Which is tuken directly from the mouituin sources, andwhich is clear, pure and healthful, One of the main branches of the canal now extends to Gold Run,-on the Cen" tral Pacitle Railroad, and from this point itis entirely practical, by caSan Francisco, The main source of the vanal isthe South Yuba river, a strong mountain stream, and besides the company have a number of wountain lakes and dams, nearer the summit of the Sierras, where they store up a large amount of water for a late Summer supply, They are} alvo constructing an immense reservoir at Fordyce Valley, commenced laut deasou, atid which will require several years for flual completion, . which will be the. greateat sStracture vf the kind in the State, The dam into be seventy-five feet in hight, and five hundred fect wide at the base, built as strong as possible of mason work and earth, The valley comprises 800 acres of 1 nd, which will be entirely covered by water, ‘with a depth ef 75 fret at the breast of the dam. At the present time there isa depth of -86 feet of water at the breast, which will be increased during the season as the hight o fhe dam is raised and the snow melts on the high mountains above. We are not apprised as to the daily supply the Company will guairantee to furnish the city ef San_ Francisco, but it will be ample for -all of its present and fature demands.

If we understand the resolution of the Board, they have determined to throw open the door for competition among book publishers, and thereby secure a decrease in the prices ehurged by those furnishing the schools of the State.

The Marysville -Appeal hasthe following sensible remarks in its Monday's-irsué: = & general and thorough. reduetion of expenses in all departments ot State-‘aud County Governments is what the people demand, and they will support any party and endorse every measure which will effect it, The cost of a single session of our Legislature is about $300,000. This ought to be reduced to one-third this sum. The annual expenses of the State loom up to nearly three. milions, when, if prudently administered, they ought not to exceed. onethird this sum. We will be compelled to pay this year three times the State tax we ought te, and our county taxes are increasing yeur after year, and much faster ‘than the ratio of taxable property. But there is a remedy in which we find the oppotted condition of the State, and t must be applied. Weare inclined to think it isnot in constitutionallegislation, but lies more in the will and determiuation .of the people, If they will boldly declare for reducing. the public eéxpenditures, and act less the politician, the work of reform will soon be accomlished, If all voters will itively lare to elect no man to the Legislature who is not openly and unmistakably in favor of a general ning in every department, the og A pater — come.
