Those who have deemed it their duty to fast, with more or less faithfulness to the regulations, are doubtless rejoicing over a speedy rereturn of the American folly of meat three times a day. The Easter egg is temptingly displayed and the urchin eyes it with hungry gaze. “Society” gets ready to launch out, after the forty days of rest, into a fresh round of pleasures. The milliner and the dressmaker busy themselves for the adornment of their fair-customers.--Young—Adolphus; » whose depleted pocket-book welcomed the advent of Lent, now bows to the necessity of once more making his slender salary eke out the expense of a dancing member of “society.” The weekly record of events in the busy and worried little world, which often starves itself half the year that it may give one or two parties, will soon be. minutely re_ported in the ‘‘social gossip,” in the same column ~ with the Young Noodles’ Club and Miss McGunnigle’s surprise party. ‘‘Christ is risen,” will be the joyful acclaim today, and the Church will emerge from ‘its period of gloom over the sufferings of its founder, to rejoice in His triumphant resurrection and the fulfillment of His promises to His people. There is something very touching in the céremonious observancies of the Holy Week that ends with to-day. Even the unbeliever “May not witness thent without feeling his heart thrilled by their solemnity. As long as the cycles shall continue, till the planetary systems shall disappear, and the heavens and the earth be rolled together as a scroll, the name of the tender and loving teacher, the sweet and gracjous-Saviour, shall -berevered; the story of His sufferings and death will remain the most-affecting chapter of al) history; the doctrine of fo:bearance and trustfulness that He taught will be the foundation of pure living; @od. millions will sing, in sadness or joy: Thee.” = + $i: BRIEF MENTION.

Trustees White Presents the Board's Side of the Subject, , Horron TRanscripr:—The subscriber would not wade into this water question again, if the crop wt Annaniases this year was not larger than is usually harvested; nor again, if I had full confidence that the Foo! Killer would take his annual rounds, and claim the few straggling victims © Mr. Gillet’s sophistries and inveracities, A plausible piece of irony, apparent to a-school child upon a full reading of my article in the Herald, the garbled quotation of Mr. Gillet therefrom would make appear a conrates was wrong, and that we, Kent, Groves and White, who reduced them, were sorry for it. Mr. Gillet takes the only case in the city that I know of—a fellow countryman, Dulac by name, and parades twenty dollars worth of misery, ore ated under a misapprehension of the facts, as a sufficient ‘“‘stand off” against a substantial reduction of water rates in the sum of three thousand dollars under which, three hundred of our citizens having families, the majority of whom are poorer than and equally deserving with Mr. Dulac, are benefitted by this—-reduction--to—~the amount of $10.40 each. I follew Mr. Gillet to the sepulchre of Mr. Dulaec’s vegetable expectations, and our tears mingle in the flood that fills the lachrymatory therein secreted. Ne such melancholy fate has overtaken an illustrious Gaul since the Prince Napoleon was assigsited in Zulu Land. The liberties of ‘‘an aged man whois trying to keep up his family by raising a few vegetables,” areendangered. ‘‘Armez Citizens! Formez Battallions!"’ Mr. Dulac can buy and sell the pair of us. His family has grown up, and show a disposition to take care of themselves. He has houses to let— doesn’t, need to raise vegetables unless he chooses to do so, His water rate was raised, as Mr, Gillet knows, under a false statement made by Mr. Brown that he was using three streams turned into ome constartly during the irrigating season, and “that thé Water cost Mr. Brown $40 at the price he paid the South Yuba Co., or $25 mere than Mr. Dulac was paying for it. When the falsehood was expesed, the Board would have been glad to have given him relief; but, under the advice of our attorney the time had gone by to change the—prdinance. “Mr. Brown hae exercised the privilege of remitting water rates to poor people— which is right—and has neglected to charge his favorites with water supplied to them when he chose to do so—which is wrong. He can remedy the evils his misstatements have [brought--apor—Mr-—Datac—by a remission of unjust rates. Will he do so? We now, «with solemn and measured tread, approach the august presence of the great logican! The public willtake off its bat. Mr. Gillet in “one sentence inveighs against She distinction made against raising vegetables, only for sale, as an unjust discrimination, and in another, chargés that the substitution of the word ‘“‘products” making the application general, is equally pernicious. He claims that it is unconstitutional and anti-strawberry, substantially, that any classification shall be made in water rates at all, as ‘such discriminations would be unconstitutional and that the use of a more eomprehensive name, ‘‘prolucts,” is equally objectionnble, although it destroys many ef these clastifications. Mr, Gillet says. the ordinance as printed never passed the Board, that I substituted the word “products” after it did pass, and that the ordinance is void. Mr, Gillet is guilty of prevarication. “The skeleton of the ordinance passed was framed at @ previous meeting, when the rates were fixed for domestic uses at 37} cents per week, irrigation at $20 for vegetables when raised for sale, and other minor rates were acted upon. When Mr. Daulac’s case was under discussion, Mr. Abbott ‘instanced a party who used water for irrigating clover which he sold; that he used this water wastefully, frand that he ought to come in under the same classifications with Mr. Dulac. I promised to draft the Ordinance having regard for the suggestions and votes alrea‘ly taken. I did so. They became part of the -minutes of the Board of the evening held previously to the submission of the’ ordinance in proper form. The ordinance was read section by section. The question came up upon the approval of the miaoutes, Mr. Casper moved the rates for domestic purposes be fixed at 59 cents, Lost. Ayes,Casper and Abbott, noes, Kent, Groves and White. As :the ordinance then stood they were fixed at 374 cents, upon a vote wherein the Ayes . were Kent, Groves and White. Noes, Casper and Abbott. A vote was taken to the effect if Mr. Brown would extend the mains, the rates would not be reduced, and, the surplus used in such extensions ‘should be added to the capital stock. Lost by the following vote: Ayes, Casper and Abbott. Noes, Kent, Groves willingness to now take off in reductions the entire surplus. I moved, to reconsider the vote establishing the rates at 374 cents,having votedwith the majority—to enable Mr. Casper to develop his intentions. Mr. Casper fen fession that the reduction of water and White. Mr. Brown then retir. ‘ed. Mr. Casper having signfied his toved that the rates be rednoed— to 30 cents which was carried unanimously. The other sections were “products” substituted for ‘‘vegetables” was also read, and passed. There was no deception practiced. The word was written when the Ordinance was written in compliance with suggestions made at the previous meeting. The minutes of. the meeting passing the Ordinance with corrections, were then and there approved. The book containing the Ordinance as printed was given to yourself, Mr. -Editor, and the Ordinance printed was set up im your office from the book itself. that Iam not the whole Board, I fully recognize and respect the integrity and intelligence of my worthy colleagues on the Board, Messrs. Kent and Groves, who have done their own thinking, and voted as their intelligence prompted. Entering upon their duties of fixing water rates without passion or prejudice, they were in leadinz—-strings to /no one--certainly not to the Water Company, and they have better dis= charged their duties to the people of this city than have the members composing the minority, or my judgment is very much at fault. _ But let Mr. Gillet quit this _mas-_ querading behind, the Water Company’s ‘counters, Befcre the Board convened to. fix water rates, Mr. Casper, Mr. Locklin and Mr. Gillett expressed themselves as opposed te any reductions, Why? One reason was: For three consecutive years, the old Board, which went into office with loud professions ef reform, and of reverence for the rights of the peofix the rates, and the figures sufficient for an equitable and materia) reduction, failed to reduce the rates. They onée reduced them, but through fright at the threats of the Water Company, immediately restored then to the old figures. The dangers to the city, portrayed by Mr, Gillet, if the old Board should not ba re-elected, which were urged at the late Manicipal-contest, were: That the special fire limits would, be. broken. down, and the Chinamen would again flood -the éity-and--that--whole~ flocks —of “soiled doves” would roost in’ its nrost favored localities. These evils have been happily avoided. The legacy of a debt of $1600 left us by the old Beard, is—being--awiped—out and taxes, have been reduced ten cents on the $100. ; __ And now the water rates are reduced! “Othello’s occupation is gone.” No, notentiiely. Forin Mr. Gillet’s letter, he drags in the China vegetable peddilar as a person ‘likely to be benetited, although heavily lieensed, And that cadaverous anato‘‘walks nnrevenged amongst us,” James D.

In the afternoon: the above nemed gentlemen, accompanied by Judge Niles Searls and L. S.

They expect to return to Bloomfield on Monday and from there go to ‘Columbia Hill, French Corral and other places on the Ridge, and then proceed to Marysville. To-morrow Night's Performance. Seats for the performance _ of “Pop” to-morrow night are being rapidly taken. The Stockton Independant says of the performance: A good house greeted Rice’s Surprise Party last night, and, if anything, the audience was more demonstrative and lavish of applause than on the first presentation of ‘‘Pop” in Stockton a few weeks ago. Every actor.in the troupe meets fully the requirements of the comedy. The makeup of each. is perfect, and al the members of the company seem to harmonize perfectly. Mr. Rice should consider himself fortunate in his selection of actors for the comical ‘‘Pop,” and the success of the troupe is well merited. Quarantine Removed.

BENEFIT OF SLICKENS. Making Arid Wastes Bloom Like the Garden of Eden, H. Degrovt says ina letter from Smarteville to the Rural Press: The advantages of irrigation on the red foothills of the: Sierra Nevada are well illustrated here about Smarts: ville, where are to be seen hundreds of acres of alfalfa, clover and other cultivated grasses kept green and growing the year round through the skillful. application of a moderate amount of water. A little below the town Messrs. Pierce,’ O’Brien and McGanney own a large tract of land situated in the scrub eak belt that borders on the rolling prairies, which, subsiding toward the west finally sink into the timberless valley of the Sacramento. This land is not particularly rich, possessing the red, E:lom-like soil common on this west-lying slope of the Sierra. Yet, with moderate irrigation and careful tillage, it has been made to produce heavy crops of grain and vegetables of all kinds; the hay lands being mown several timesevery year. A large number of horses and cows are . also pastured on this land, »besides a good many hogs, fed. in part on the alfalfa and clover. The animals kept here are, for the most part, of choice breeds, some of them “very While the profits realized from this land are sufficiently large to make ita good investment at the rate of $100 an acre, unimproved land equally good commands about here only from $5 to $10 an acre. This land never disappoints the owner. Be the rainfall excessive or insufficient, there crops, there being always snow enough in the mountains to~ afford plenty of water, the element on which the crop wholly depends. There are in this region no storms or frosts, vo rust or blightmg winds to hurt. With enough of this muddy water, for such it is, the success of the farmer, the orchardist, the horticulturist and the vintager is assured, nor does it require such a very great deal. Mr. James O’Brien, to whose charge this business has been committed, informs me that the quantity of water required for i:rigation, after the first few seasons becomes every year somewhat less, The owners of this property .have for many years been engaged in hywater employed for irrigation being such_as-has already been used for gravel washing. Before being conducted upon-the-land, however, it is retained for a time in reservoirs, or run for a considerable distance in ditches, Whereby the. coarser matetrial held in suspension is allowed to settle. Though’still rather turbid, it answers well for irrigation, better perhaps, than if it was perfectly ‘pure—the fine. particles it carries being Valuable as fertilizers. Conveyed upon the land in large quantitiesas it issues from the miuers’ sluice, this stuff becomes an agent of mischief, as witness the harm worked on the lands along the banks of the Yuba further down. Smartsville is probably the most pleasant mining town in the State, rendered so, mainly, through the extent to which the inhabitants, by means of irrigation, have improved and beautified the grounds about their dwellings. The most of the residents of this place have not only orchards and gardens, but, also patches of cultivated grasses sufficient to keepacow or two., .The homestead of Mr. O'Brien comprises 10 or 12 .acres, a part planted to choice fruit trees, vines, ete., enda part consisting of irrigated pasture and hay latids. M:1.-Daniel McGanney has an equally large and attractive place, it being the finest to be seen any where in the mining regions of the State. Cothing from the mountains, one catches glimpses of Smartsville a long way off. So ‘seen, from a distance, these patches of verdure about the place, and the green fields further down, are a pleasant and refreshing sight, especially in the summer, when the red dust lies deep on the highway, and the whole country is burned to a crisp.__—.In such use of this turbid water from the mines, we have an” example that ought to find extensive following, there being many places along this. great piedmont country where it could:be repeated with good results all round. Properly distributed, this water, instead of causing injury to the already fertile valley lands, would cover these russet hills, now so. arid and barren, with orchards, meadows, and fields of grain.

The Easter egg is temptingly displayed and the urchin eyes it with hungry gaze. “Society” gets ready to launch out, after the forty days of rest, into a fresh round of pleasures. The milliner and the dressmaker busy themselves for the adornment of their fair-customers.--Young—Adolphus; » whose depleted pocket-book welcomed the advent of Lent, now bows to the necessity of once more making his slender salary eke out the expense of a dancing member of “society.” The weekly record of events in the busy and worried little world, which often starves itself half the year that it may give one or two parties, will soon be. minutely re_ported in the ‘‘social gossip,” in the same column ~ with the Young Noodles’ Club and Miss McGunnigle’s surprise party. ‘‘Christ is risen,” will be the joyful acclaim today, and the Church will emerge from ‘its period of gloom over the sufferings of its founder, to rejoice in His triumphant resurrection and the fulfillment of His promises to His people.

As long as the cycles shall continue, till the planetary systems shall disappear, and the heavens and the earth be rolled together as a scroll, the name of the tender and loving teacher, the sweet and gracjous-Saviour, shall -berevered; the story of His sufferings and death will remain the most-affecting chapter of al) history; the doctrine of fo:bearance and trustfulness that He taught will be the foundation of pure living; @od. millions will sing, in sadness or joy: Thee.” = + $i: BRIEF MENTION.

Trustees White Presents the Board's Side of the Subject, , Horron TRanscripr:—The subscriber would not wade into this water question again, if the crop wt Annaniases this year was not larger than is usually harvested; nor again, if I had full confidence that the Foo! Killer would take his annual rounds, and claim the few straggling victims © Mr. Gillet’s sophistries and inveracities, A plausible piece of irony, apparent to a-school child upon a full reading of my article in the Herald, the garbled quotation of Mr. Gillet therefrom would make appear a conrates was wrong, and that we, Kent, Groves and White, who reduced them, were sorry for it. Mr. Gillet takes the only case in the city that I know of—a fellow countryman, Dulac by name, and parades twenty dollars worth of misery, ore ated under a misapprehension of the facts, as a sufficient ‘“‘stand off” against a substantial reduction of water rates in the sum of three thousand dollars under which, three hundred of our citizens having families, the majority of whom are poorer than and equally deserving with Mr. Dulac, are benefitted by this—-reduction--to—~the amount of $10.40 each. I follew Mr. Gillet to the sepulchre of Mr. Dulaec’s vegetable expectations, and our tears mingle in the flood that fills the lachrymatory therein secreted. Ne such melancholy fate has overtaken an illustrious Gaul since the Prince Napoleon was assigsited in Zulu Land. The liberties of ‘‘an aged man whois trying to keep up his family by raising a few vegetables,” areendangered. ‘‘Armez Citizens! Formez Battallions!"’ Mr. Dulac can buy and sell the pair of us. His family has grown up, and show a disposition to take care of themselves. He has houses to let— doesn’t, need to raise vegetables unless he chooses to do so, His water rate was raised, as Mr, Gillet knows, under a false statement made by Mr. Brown that he was using three streams turned into ome constartly during the irrigating season, and “that thé Water cost Mr. Brown $40 at the price he paid the South Yuba Co., or $25 mere than Mr. Dulac was paying for it. When the falsehood was expesed, the Board would have been glad to have given him relief; but, under the advice of our attorney the time had gone by to change the—prdinance. “Mr. Brown hae exercised the privilege of remitting water rates to poor people— which is right—and has neglected to charge his favorites with water supplied to them when he chose to do so—which is wrong. He can remedy the evils his misstatements have [brought--apor—Mr-—Datac—by a remission of unjust rates. Will he do so? We now, «with solemn and measured tread, approach the august presence of the great logican! The public willtake off its bat. Mr. Gillet in “one sentence inveighs against She distinction made against raising vegetables, only for sale, as an unjust discrimination, and in another, chargés that the substitution of the word ‘“‘products” making the application general, is equally pernicious. He claims that it is unconstitutional and anti-strawberry, substantially, that any classification shall be made in water rates at all, as ‘such discriminations would be unconstitutional and that the use of a more eomprehensive name, ‘‘prolucts,” is equally objectionnble, although it destroys many ef these clastifications. Mr, Gillet says. the ordinance as printed never passed the Board, that I substituted the word “products” after it did pass, and that the ordinance is void. Mr, Gillet is guilty of prevarication. “The skeleton of the ordinance passed was framed at @ previous meeting, when the rates were fixed for domestic uses at 37} cents per week, irrigation at $20 for vegetables when raised for sale, and other minor rates were acted upon. When Mr. Daulac’s case was under discussion, Mr. Abbott ‘instanced a party who used water for irrigating clover which he sold; that he used this water wastefully, frand that he ought to come in under the same classifications with Mr. Dulac. I promised to draft the Ordinance having regard for the suggestions and votes alrea‘ly taken. I did so. They became part of the -minutes of the Board of the evening held previously to the submission of the’ ordinance in proper form. The ordinance was read section by section. The question came up upon the approval of the miaoutes, Mr. Casper moved the rates for domestic purposes be fixed at 59 cents, Lost. Ayes,Casper and Abbott, noes, Kent, Groves and White. As :the ordinance then stood they were fixed at 374 cents, upon a vote wherein the Ayes . were Kent, Groves and White. Noes, Casper and Abbott. A vote was taken to the effect if Mr. Brown would extend the mains, the rates would not be reduced, and, the surplus used in such extensions ‘should be added to the capital stock. Lost by the following vote: Ayes, Casper and Abbott. Noes, Kent, Groves willingness to now take off in reductions the entire surplus. I moved, to reconsider the vote establishing the rates at 374 cents,having votedwith the majority—to enable Mr. Casper to develop his intentions. Mr. Casper fen fession that the reduction of water and White. Mr. Brown then retir. ‘ed. Mr. Casper having signfied his toved that the rates be rednoed— to 30 cents which was carried unanimously. The other sections were “products” substituted for ‘‘vegetables” was also read, and passed. There was no deception practiced. The word was written when the Ordinance was written in compliance with suggestions made at the previous meeting. The minutes of. the meeting passing the Ordinance with corrections, were then and there approved. The book containing the Ordinance as printed was given to yourself, Mr. -Editor, and the Ordinance printed was set up im your office from the book itself. that Iam not the whole Board, I fully recognize and respect the integrity and intelligence of my worthy colleagues on the Board, Messrs. Kent and Groves, who have done their own thinking, and voted as their intelligence prompted.. Entering upon their duties of fixing water rates without passion or prejudice, they were in leadinz—-strings to /no one--certainly not to the Water Company, and they have better dis= charged their duties to the people of this city than have the members composing the minority, or my judgment is very much at fault. _ But let Mr. Gillet quit this _mas-_ querading behind, the Water Company’s ‘counters, Befcre the Board convened to. fix water rates, Mr. Casper, Mr. Locklin and Mr. Gillett expressed themselves as opposed te any reductions, Why? One reason was: For three consecutive years, the old Board, which went into office with loud professions ef reform, and of reverence for the rights of the peofix the rates, and the figures sufficient for an equitable and materia) reduction, failed to reduce the rates. They onée reduced them, but through fright at the threats of the Water Company, immediately restored then to the old figures. The dangers to the city, portrayed by Mr, Gillet, if the old Board should not ba re-elected, which were urged at the late Manicipal-contest, were: That the special fire limits would, be. broken. down, and the Chinamen would again flood -the éity-and--that--whole~ flocks —of “soiled doves” would roost in’ its nrost favored localities. These evils have been happily avoided. The legacy of a debt of $1600 left us by the old Beard, is—being--awiped—out and taxes, have been reduced ten cents on the $100. ; __ And now the water rates are reduced! “Othello’s occupation is gone.” No, notentiiely. Forin Mr. Gillet’s letter, he drags in the China vegetable peddilar as a person ‘likely to be benetited, although heavily lieensed, And that cadaverous anato‘‘walks nnrevenged amongst us,” James D.

Seats for the performance _ of “Pop” to-morrow night are being rapidly taken. The Stockton Independant says of the performance: A good house greeted Rice’s Surprise Party last night, and, if anything, the audience was more demonstrative and lavish of applause than on the first presentation of ‘‘Pop” in Stockton a few weeks ago. Every actor.in the troupe meets fully the requirements of the comedy. The makeup of each. is perfect, and al the members of the company seem to harmonize perfectly. Mr. Rice should consider himself fortunate in his selection of actors for the comical ‘‘Pop,” and the success of the troupe is well merited. Quarantine Removed.

BENEFIT OF SLICKENS. Making Arid Wastes Bloom Like the Garden of Eden, H. Degrovt says ina letter from Smarteville to the Rural Press: The advantages of irrigation on the red foothills of the: Sierra Nevada are well illustrated here about Smarts: ville, where are to be seen hundreds of acres of alfalfa, clover and other cultivated grasses kept green and growing the year round through the skillful. application of a moderate amount of water. A little below the town Messrs. Pierce,’ O’Brien and McGanney own a large tract of land situated in the scrub eak belt that borders on the rolling prairies, which, subsiding toward the west finally sink into the timberless valley of the Sacramento. This land is not particularly rich, possessing the red, E:lom-like soil common on this west-lying slope of the Sierra. Yet, with moderate irrigation and careful tillage, it has been made to produce heavy crops of grain and vegetables of all kinds; the hay lands being mown several timesevery year. A large number of horses and cows are . also pastured on this land, »besides a good many hogs, fed. in part on the alfalfa and clover. The animals kept here are, for the most part, of choice breeds, some of them “very While the profits realized from this land are sufficiently large to make ita good investment at the rate of $100 an acre, unimproved land equally good commands about here only from $5 to $10 an acre. This land never disappoints the owner. Be the rainfall excessive or insufficient, there crops, there being always snow enough in the mountains to~ afford plenty of water, the element on which the crop wholly depends. There are in this region no storms or frosts, vo rust or blightmg winds to hurt. With enough of this muddy water, for such it is, the success of the farmer, the orchardist, the horticulturist and the vintager is assured, nor does it require such a very great deal. Mr. James O’Brien, to whose charge this business has been committed, informs me that the quantity of water required for i:rigation, after the first few seasons becomes every year somewhat less, The owners of this property .have for many years been engaged in hywater employed for irrigation being such_as-has already been used for gravel washing. Before being conducted upon-the-land, however, it is retained for a time in reservoirs, or run for a considerable distance in ditches, Whereby the. coarser matetrial held in suspension is allowed to settle. Though’still rather turbid, it answers well for irrigation, better perhaps, than if it was perfectly ‘pure—the fine. particles it carries being Valuable as fertilizers. Conveyed upon the land in large quantitiesas it issues from the miuers’ sluice, this stuff becomes an agent of mischief, as witness the harm worked on the lands along the banks of the Yuba further down. Smartsville is probably the most pleasant mining town in the State, rendered so, mainly, through the extent to which the inhabitants, by means of irrigation, have improved and beautified the grounds about their dwellings. The most of the residents of this place have not only orchards and gardens, but, also patches of cultivated grasses sufficient to keepacow or two., .The homestead of Mr. O'Brien comprises 10 or 12 .acres, a part planted to choice fruit trees, vines, ete., enda part consisting of irrigated pasture and hay latids. M:1.-Daniel McGanney has an equally large and attractive place, it being the finest to be seen any where in the mining regions of the State. Cothing from the mountains, one catches glimpses of Smartsville a long way off. So ‘seen, from a distance, these patches of verdure about the place, and the green fields further down, are a pleasant and refreshing sight, especially in the summer, when the red dust lies deep on the highway, and the whole country is burned to a crisp.__—.In such use of this turbid water from the mines, we have an” example that ought to find extensive following, there being many places along this. great piedmont country where it could:be repeated with good results all round. Properly distributed, this water, instead of causing injury to the already fertile valley lands, would cover these russet hills, now so. arid and barren, with orchards, meadows, and fields of grain.
