In times of flood the levees under his charge suffer much by high waves,and he proposes the next ” time the river raises to protect the earthworks from being thus weakened by pouring oil upon the waters from the windward side of the stream and creating a smooth surface, It is a wise provision, and will prevent -much damage. By the way, friend Sexey, would it not be worth while toapply the same principle in smoothpeople up here and down your way. The breakers of litigation are bound to ruin us all eventually if we don’t check them, and no one but the law*-yers, who are the wreckers lining the shore, willhave gained anything.

The University is very little understood or appreciated in this part of the State, which fact is more the fault of the management than anything else.

The State Board of Equalization have issued the following circular o all Assessors: Office State Board of Equalization, SacRAMENTO, March 16th, 1883. Dear Sir: Exclusive of railroads assessed by the State Board of Equalization, the assessment by Assessors of the property in the State for the past three years was as follows: In 1880, $635,028,554; in 1881, $598,750,013; in 1882, $575,870,449. This shows a decrease in the assessment of 1881 below that of 1880 of $36,278,541, and a decrease in 1882 below that of of 1881of $18,879,564, . notwithstanding that the past two yxare were the most prosperous years the State bas known. From the reports of the previous Board,-and from our personal acquaintance with ‘the money values of the property in the State, we are satisfied that the Assessment of this State, exclusive of railroads, has been made largely below ‘‘full cash value,” and that if . Assessors had done their duty this assessment for the year 1882 would have been not ess than $1,000,000,000. It is folly to say that in the past two years the wealth of this State lias decreased from.$635,028,554.-to-$579,870,449, . a loss: of $55,158,105, or 8.68 per cent, 2 es The duties of the Asse are so plainly set forth, in respect to asses;ing, that it is as surprising as it is painful to know that they have so wilfully disregarded their sworn obligations. and the mandates of the law. The assessment of property below ‘‘full cash value” must cease. Your attention is called to the definition of ‘‘fuil cash value” in Section 3617 of the Political Cade, and the former Board, in ‘its first report, pertinently explained the phrase by —a quotation from a report by General James H. Goodman, the Auditor of Ohio, as follows : ‘*What a particular individual will pay does not furnish a rule; the price at forced sale ought not to be accepted as a guide, as such sales are generally made in unfavorable circumstances for any but one or two unconscionable buyers. The only value that can approach uniformity, as applicable to a multitude of cases, and approximate equality and justice, is the usual selling price of similar property in the saine vicinity. This would be a rule, then, if the Legislature had not prescribed any rrule on the subject, but as will be seen, the Legislature has adopted this identical rule.” It is the firm purpose of this Board, so far as it lies in its power, to effect a just, equal and ‘‘full cash value” assessment of property, and to this end the members of the Board will, in. the current year, visit the various counties and ascertain the ratio at which property is assessed, and where any assessor has not performed his duty, and has under-assessed the property of his county, the Board will unohesitatin.ly exercise the power conferred by the Constitution and increase the total assessment of the county. That some injustice is done by increasing the whole assessment of a county is admitted; but as the Assessor has it in his power to prevent the necessity of such increase, the responsibility therefor must be placed where it belongs, thatis, upon the Assesors, When those who complain of an increase in their assessments are aware of our determination to equalize the assessments in the State,*ani] that such will produce ‘equality of assessment and a corresponding low rate of taxation, the public, we confidently believe, will sustain you in your action, Your attention is called to the provision of the Constitution, which vrovides that ‘‘Cultivated’ and uncultivated land, of the same quality and similarly situated, shall be assessed at the same value.” The object of this provision is well understood. It was to bring uncultivated land up to the standird of the value * of cultivated land, _ Land, therefore, should be assessed as land unaffected by the improvements. To assist the Assessor in his judgment of the value of land, he must be careful to pursue strictly the law and the Coustitution, and assess all improvements separately from the land. The Code declares, in Section 3,617, ‘‘Improvements,” to de: 1. All buildings, structures, fixtures, fences and improvements, erected upon or affixed to the land. ®. All fruit, nut-bearing of ornamental. trees or vines, not of natural ‘growth. : There is an injustice practiced by allowjng the person assessed to fix the value upon his personal property. A competent Assessor should not only be acquainted with the presumptive wealth of the citizens of the county, but with the value of property. Particularly in reference to the value of merchandise, his knowledge of the reputed extent of business done by a merchant will enable him to detect and correct errer or falsehood in a statement. The Assessor should be careful, to a nicety, to exact from each person a statement of his personal property in detail, and while the officer may be aided by the estimate of the value of property by the owner, he is not concluded thereby, but must fix the value upon his own judgment.

(Grass Valley Tidings. . It is worth while, every now and then, to take a trip from Grass Valley up to Nevada City. It is a good thing for Grass Valleyans to mingle and talk with Nevada Cityans, Both may be. benefitted for éacs may catch an idea from the other. In fact it isa good thing, anyhow, to travel and to change one’s horizon when the opportunity to travel is offered. We went to Nevada City Monday morning, in a hurried sort ofa way. We did not have time, being on business, to call on many of our friends, but those we saw said they were glad to see us and we believed them. Nevada City is alleged to hive some cases of smallpox in it and the natives stoutly maintain that there is no doubt about that distinguishing fact. The town has, therefore, the proud distinction of being the only mountain place on this coast iu which smallpox will spread as if au epidemic was about to ensue, It was raining at Nevada City. It rains on the just as well as the anjust, some one remarks, and therefore we, the just, got pretty wet while in Nevada City, and so did Nat. Brown of the TRANSCRIPT. Nevada City haa: steep silewalks and those sidewalks are all of planks. In the steepest places the knottiest planks are laid down, On a wet day when a pedestrian’s boot heel happens to come down-on one of tho-e hard and slippery kuots he is apt to be reminded of. banana peelings. The sensation is not agreeable. The health officer should see to this anhealthy feature in the sidewalks of Nevada City. We heard of a carious and a fatal accident which occurred at Nevada City’a few days ago, and which the papers. of that town have not mentioned. It appears that celluloid is rmuch used ap there as material in which false teeth are set. Celluloid will explode under certain conditions. A celluloid billiard ball in Austin, Nevada, not long ago, blew up of its own accord and made the barkeeper think there were ghosts around. A dentist’s office in San Francisco was récently very much dainaged by an explosion ofa stock of celluloid. The fatal accident in Nevada City was caused by just such an explosion. A man with a double set of célluiod teeth was snoking, and he was absent-minded, and he, by mistake, put the fire end of his cigar iu his mouth, and. the coroner's jary have not been able to find any witness who could identify the corpse. = : ; Nevada City people heartily espouse the cause of the county fair. They see uo difficulty in the \way of making such a fair a complete success ‘Those people of Nevada right along for that success, SS ee Letter from Mexico. A. McNeely, who is now in Mexico, writes from Altar to W. D. Long of.this city, and in the course of his letter says: i “T cannot say that I have any flattering accounts to give you of this locality. Tradition says it was once a very rich district. If that be true they carried off everything of value when they went east with Montezuma. The people here climb to the tops of the highest peaxs and look to the east to see if Montezumais not returning. They teach their children to do the same. You .can see that ignorauce is the predominating characteristic, as they have been doing this for 200 years past. I never had better health, yet I havelost more than forty pounds in weight since coming here. I shall leave here soon, and think strongly of returning to Nevada City. This is no place for a human being to live in.” The Rainstorm. The rainstorm continued all day yesterday, 2 60 inches falling during the 24 hours ending at 4 0’clock in the afternoon.

Iam induced to take notice of the subject by reading th: disquisition and the experience of a contributor-to the TRANscaIer on the now engrossing smallpox question, He seetns to think with a very large portion of the community that the disease is not contagious; but if contagious vaccination is not a remedy, He has experienced the disease, sohave I.

However tertible that scourge has proven on the land, however often it’has in the past, and may in the future, decimate the population of the cities of the earth, it is intinitely more terrible at sea. Our crew was compose i of 18 men. The patient, David Gay, wasjimmediately placed apart from the crew in between the decks of the ship, which was in ballast. For a few days he was allowed to come to the after hatch and get his food, but a day came when he did not appear. The Captain called up the crew and asked if any ever had the disease. It was a perilous time, for pest ships floated at random on theZocean, with no power to guide. There were two Northmen who were badly marked, but they contended they could have it again. None would go, nor could Captain Bennett force such a duty if he would. Most of the children bora in New England sixty years ago were vaccinated. I had been and, in my childhvod had heard my mother tell ‘how severely it “took.” For that ‘reason I offered to yo, “If you go,” said the Captain, ‘you must stay.” “T expect to,” I said, and ‘went.

The State Board of Equalization have issued the following circular o all Assessors: Office State Board of Equalization, SacRAMENTO, March 16th, 1883. Dear Sir: Exclusive of railroads assessed by the State Board of Equalization, the assessment by Assessors of the property in the State for the past three years was as follows: In 1880, $635,028,554; in 1881, $598,750,013; in 1882, $575,870,449. This shows a decrease in the assessment of 1881 below that of 1880 of $36,278,541, and a decrease in 1882 below that of of 1881of $18,879,564, . notwithstanding that the past two yxare were the most prosperous years the State bas known. From the reports of the previous Board,-and from our personal acquaintance with ‘the money values of the property in the State, we are satisfied that the Assessment of this State, exclusive of railroads, has been made largely below ‘‘full cash value,” and that if . Assessors had done their duty this assessment for the year 1882 would have been not ess than $1,000,000,000. It is folly to say that in the past two years the wealth of this State lias decreased from.$635,028,554.-to-$579,870,449, . a loss: of $55,158,105, or 8.68 per cent, 2 es The duties of the Asse are so plainly set forth, in respect to asses;ing, that it is as surprising as it is painful to know that they have so wilfully disregarded their sworn obligations. and the mandates of the law. The assessment of property below ‘‘full cash value” must cease. Your attention is called to the definition of ‘‘fuil cash value” in Section 3617 of the Political Cade, and the former Board, in ‘its first report, pertinently explained the phrase by —a quotation from a report by General James H. Goodman, the Auditor of Ohio, as follows : ‘*What a particular individual will pay does not furnish a rule; the price at forced sale ought not to be accepted as a guide, as such sales are generally made in unfavorable circumstances for any but one or two unconscionable buyers. The only value that can approach uniformity, as applicable to a multitude of cases, and approximate equality and justice, is the usual selling price of similar property in the saine vicinity. This would be a rule, then, if the Legislature had not prescribed any rrule on the subject, but as will be seen, the Legislature has adopted this identical rule.” It is the firm purpose of this Board, so far as it lies in its power, to effect a just, equal and ‘‘full cash value” assessment of property, and to this end the members of the Board will, in. the current year, visit the various counties and ascertain the ratio at which property is assessed, and where any assessor has not performed his duty, and has under-assessed the property of his county, the Board will unohesitatin.ly exercise the power conferred by the Constitution and increase the total assessment of the county. That some injustice is done by increasing the whole assessment of a county is admitted; but as the Assessor has it in his power to prevent the necessity of such increase, the responsibility therefor must be placed where it belongs, thatis, upon the Assesors, When those who complain of an increase in their assessments are aware of our determination to equalize the assessments in the State,*ani] that such will produce ‘equality of assessment and a corresponding low rate of taxation, the public, we confidently believe, will sustain you in your action, Your attention is called to the provision of the Constitution, which vrovides that ‘‘Cultivated’ and uncultivated land, of the same quality and similarly situated, shall be assessed at the same value.” The object of this provision is well understood. It was to bring uncultivated land up to the standird of the value * of cultivated land, _ Land, therefore, should be assessed as land unaffected by the improvements. To assist the Assessor in his judgment of the value of land, he must be careful to pursue strictly the law and the Coustitution, and assess all improvements separately from the land. The Code declares, in Section 3,617, ‘‘Improvements,” to de: 1. All buildings, structures, fixtures, fences and improvements, erected upon or affixed to the land. ®. All fruit, nut-bearing of ornamental. trees or vines, not of natural ‘growth. : There is an injustice practiced by allowjng the person assessed to fix the value upon his personal property. A competent Assessor should not only be acquainted with the presumptive wealth of the citizens of the county, but with the value of property. Particularly in reference to the value of merchandise, his knowledge of the reputed extent of business done by a merchant will enable him to detect and correct errer or falsehood in a statement. The Assessor should be careful, to a nicety, to exact from each person a statement of his personal property in detail, and while the officer may be aided by the estimate of the value of property by the owner, he is not concluded thereby, but must fix the value upon his own judgment.

It is a good thing for Grass Valleyans to mingle and talk with Nevada Cityans, Both may be. benefitted for éacs may catch an idea from the other. In fact it isa good thing, anyhow, to travel and to change one’s horizon when the opportunity to travel is offered. We went to Nevada City Monday morning, in a hurried sort ofa way. We did not have time, being on business, to call on many of our friends, but those we saw said they were glad to see us and we believed them. Nevada City is alleged to hive some cases of smallpox in it and the natives stoutly maintain that there is no doubt about that distinguishing fact. The town has, therefore, the proud distinction of being the only mountain place on this coast iu which smallpox will spread as if au epidemic was about to ensue, It was raining at Nevada City. It rains on the just as well as the anjust, some one remarks, and therefore we, the just, got pretty wet while in Nevada City, and so did Nat. Brown of the TRANSCRIPT.

In the steepest places the knottiest planks are laid down, On a wet day when a pedestrian’s boot heel happens to come down-on one of tho-e hard and slippery kuots he is apt to be reminded of. banana peelings. The sensation is not agreeable. The health officer should see to this anhealthy feature in the sidewalks of Nevada City. We heard of a carious and a fatal accident which occurred at Nevada City’a few days ago, and which the papers. of that town have not mentioned. It appears that celluloid is rmuch used ap there as material in which false teeth are set. Celluloid will explode under certain conditions. A celluloid billiard ball in Austin, Nevada, not long ago, blew up of its own accord and made the barkeeper think there were ghosts around. A dentist’s office in San Francisco was récently very much dainaged by an explosion ofa stock of celluloid. The fatal accident in Nevada City was caused by just such an explosion. A man with a double set of célluiod teeth was snoking, and he was absent-minded, and he, by mistake, put the fire end of his cigar iu his mouth, and. the coroner's jary have not been able to find any witness who could identify the corpse. = : ; Nevada City people heartily espouse the cause of the county fair.

You .can see that ignorauce is the predominating characteristic, as they have been doing this for 200 years past. I never had better health, yet I havelost more than forty pounds in weight since coming here. I shall leave here soon, and think strongly of returning to Nevada City.

Our crew was compose i of 18 men. The patient, David Gay, wasjimmediately placed apart from the crew in between the decks of the ship, which was in ballast. For a few days he was allowed to come to the after hatch and get his food, but a day came when he did not appear. The Captain called up the crew and asked if any ever had the disease. It was a perilous time, for pest ships floated at random on theZocean, with no power to guide. There were two Northmen who were badly marked, but they contended they could have it again. None would go, nor could Captain Bennett force such a duty if he would. Most of the children bora in New England sixty years ago were vaccinated.

After being struck he ejacnlates, ‘‘I’m done for !” Legree says, ‘Away with him to the hog-pen !” Jay Rial’s theatrical troupe made a visit to Woodland a few months ago and Stotenbery visited the _per' formance. The theory is that the scenes of the play worked on _ his mind until in his imagination he witnessed the scene of Maltby’s murder as detailed on the witness stand.
