Judge Robinson, who has for several months past been editing the Herald of this city, announces that he will for atime atleast abandon: that occupation in order to give more attention to his mining interests. The Transcrier man is for one very sorry to have him do this, as the relations of the two have been of the pleasantest sort. Mr. Robinson is not only a writer of superior ability, but he has a soul above and beyond the spites and meannesses that sometimes get mixed up with the business. Mr, Robinson will retain his ownership in the paper, but Mr. Gray, his junior partner, will resume the editorial charge of it, a position he for a long time filled with infinite credit to himself and_perfect-satisfaction tothe Herald’s readers. The Transcript is sorry_to—lose—Mr.—Robinson a3 an active co-laborer, but it is glad to again be hitched up with so genial and capable a gentleman as Mr. Gray. Why Boston Ravine is sc Called. There is prevalent an impression that Boston Ravine, Grass Valley’s blooming southern suburb, is so called because a party of Bostonians were the original settlers of the place. A search of the early mining records of Grass Valley district indicates that this is the wrong explanation. In those old records frequent reference is made by locators in describing the boundaries of their claims to the house and lot of a man named Boston. A pioneer says that the ravine was named from this Mr. Boston. Good Results in Every Case, D. A. Bradford, wholesale paper dealer of Chattanooga, Tenn., writes that he was seriously afflicted with a severe cold that settled on his lungs; had tried many remedies without benefit. Being induced to try Dr. King’s New Discovery for Consumption, did so and was entirely cured by use of a few bottles. Since which.time he has used it in his family for all Coughs and Colds with best results.

A, Bad Case That Could Not be Made Much Worse—The Animosity of the Anti-Miners, _& San Francisco, May 2, 1887. Eprror Transcript :—May Day was observed yesterday by a grand outpouring to the park and ocean beach. -Itmaybe safely-said-that-on a pleasant Sunday, more people, including women and children, pass the hours at these favorite resorts than at all the churches put together. San Francisco is more favored in healthful resorts than-any—other great city in the world. No where else can a beautiful park be found so near the ocean beach, and both so near the city. The Bois de Bologne at Paris, Hyde and St. James parks of London, etc., are “attractive in their way ; but they lack the grand swell of the solemn ocean and the fiesh salt breezes, that are so invigorating after a week’s toil at the work bench or in the close office. And there is now, or. soon will be; littl left. to be desired on the score of accessibility. The cable. cars running and to’run to the park and beach tak: people from almost any part of th city, and for a f:w cents. set them down among the flowers or on the clean sand. Adolph Sutro is the présent owner of the Ocean House and adjacent property, and is spending a good. deal oi the money he got for his interest in the -Sutro-tunnelin-making that re: gion attractive for visitors. Year. ago he was strenuously contending for a loan of $2,000,000 from the Unitea Stutes government to drive his celebrated “hole in the ground.” Wha he could not get out of the government he got the‘ Britishers to inyest, ana they still have the “hele” while he has the only profit that has ever beer made froin it, and that was the money they paid him to dropout. It_is for tunate for the government that Sutro the most accomplished lobbyist know! to fuine, did not persuade it to advance the desired capital. Well, i English money beautifies the sur roundings of San Francisco, I for onc do not object. It was a very pleasant sight yesterday to see the little ones enjoyin, themselves in the park. But. th Sharon bequest will make more am ple and special provision for them by and by. Speaking of the proposed railroad from Shingle Springs to Phecerville, the Oakland Tribune takes ovcasion tc puff El Dorado county as the Queen o the foothills. Perhaps it is, but you could show that paper something in the shape of a Queen in Nevada county, if he ever ventured away from the fogay, sultry-spet_yclept Oakland. The same writér says: ‘The hy=draulic miners are doing themselves infinite injury by-indulging—inthreats against parties who go into the mining counties, with or without official commissions, to ascertain whether the miners are observing the law. ‘The immunity which can be gained by this course of intimidation must necessarily be short and profitless, and it will tell heavily against the miners when the matter comes up in Congress the next time.” How the hydraulic miners can get theircase into a worse plight than the present total confiscation ~of all their property, and mining made a crime before the law, while hoards of greedy spies overrun the foothills, eking out their stipends by blackmail, and indulging in revenge where they cannot bleed the miners; magnifying every act done, to the prejudice of the miners, and often causing innocent nien to be hauled by deputy marshals and sheriffs scores of miles from home ‘ how things can be worse than this is hard to ‘un.erstand. The Congresstan who représents Oakland, and whom the Enquirer wears: by, was one of.our most bitter foes, and worked with Stanford, (who got his first start by selling kerosene to miners) to have mining declared a crime by United States law. The miners have seen their property tied up, their machinery rusting on the ground, their liberties infringéd, and every avenue of hope closed by judges who. had prejudged their cases in advance, and determined to cinch them before a word of testiniony was heard, and it is not unnatural that here and there some are found who kick against the pricks, Will this learned scribe please. tell what we may expect from Congress? Is Stariford waiting to see if the miners are submissive before changing his course? Is Jo McKenna showing any sigy of repentance for having branded as a crime one of the most ancient and honored pursuits known to this State or the world?—a pursuit sanctioned by the patents issued to Store tor Sale. The San Francisco Opposition Store is for wale as it stands, Rare opportunity for a live business man. ti Te Prevent ‘Being Talked to Death. — : Tf you need a carpet, and don’t want to be bored to death “by tocal dealers 4 Tanning her, pre, tana ore, to or call . atthe store of + 230-lw.

Itwas laughed at heartily, especially by the small-boys who made up the big part of the audience. As a dramatic performance, it was the weakest put on the stage here for years. —_—_——+ 1 eo Pioneer Miners Organizing. The San Francisco Post says: A meeting of pioneer miners was held Chursday night at 1025 Market street, lor the purpose of effecting an organization. J. C.

It was suggested that the society should be an adjunct to the pio1eérs, as it was proposed to allow men 4 1857 to become inembers.

THE TEACHERS. — en Second Day of the County Institute— Some Able Essays and Lively Discussions. At the Institute yesterday morning the reporter noticed that when the roll was called a large number of the teachers were marked absent as usual. When the » Secretary had finished marking, Miss Nettie’ Breed favored the Institute with an instrumental solo, after which S. A. Bulfinch read an essay upon the subject of teaching grammar. All that the reporter feels like saying about Mr. Bulfinch’s essay is that in our Ppinion it was the best written essay upon that subject. that we have ever heajd or read. It should be published, together Mr. Bulfinch’s remarks upon the subject, and spread broadcast throughout the State so as to be read by all educators. Itshould be not only read, but’ practiced. By the way, Mr. Bulfinch’s idea of teaching-grammar would to a great extent make parents, as well asschoolmarms, teachers of language. Hencé we say it should be published in full by the TRANSCRIPT, or some other first-class live paper, so that all may know and practice the many sensible and excel‘Tent ideas advanced by Mr. Bulfinch. After the essay the subject .of teaching grammar was discussed by Messrs. Crowell, Herrod, Stone, Gray and Hill, Pee The discussion, which lasted but a few minutes, being over, Section work began and the Institute went to work inearnest. The réporter was drawn in the B class as usual; where were a majority of the best. looking schoolmarms. Prof. T, B. Gray had charge of this division. He outlined the Gruby system of teaching arithmetic. Many. of the B division had an opportunity of teHing-how~much-or-howtittle they knew about Gruby. We must confess that we are about as ignorant \pow of just what Gruby teaches as we Were before the exercise. All that spoke of the old German’s ideas seemed a little in doubt as to just what his method is, or was, and if they all feel about this matter as the reporter does they willlose very little sleep in delving for the Gruby system or methods. We are a_crank who believes and has great confidence in Americans and American systems. A recess of ten minutes was now ordered. After recess we were among the B’s again and listened to Miss Bartling on the subject of geography. Miss Bartling.read to the division, in a very pleasing way, an essay upon the teaching of geography. Her Mary Hall manner of telling pleasing stories about the different countries suits us exactly. T::ere is no doubt in our mind now, or in fact there has never been since we first read Mary Hall's stories about tiie method, but that it is just the way to teach geography to children, If Miss Bartling. teaches geography to her class as she read about teaching it while the B class was before her, those beys and girls of Nevada City that are privileged to attend her school and don’t enjoy the atudy of geography must admit it is not the fault of the teacher. Many B’s talked of what their experience in teaching geography had been. Just what they. said the reporter is unable to say, but one thing we know, and that is that the B’s talked the A’s out of time and can do it right along. AFTERNOON SESSION. Miss L. Hinds and Miss Jessie Rich played an instrumental duet in excellent manner.” . Miss Maggie Riley was on account of illness unable to respond when called upon for her essay on elementary grammar: Mrs. T. G. Farrer took her place and read a charming essay on teaching elementary science in the lower grades. We are sorry that such essays Cannot be published and read by ull parents and teachers, especially by parents, who by following the method outlined could direct the minds of their children in a proper course of useful reading, a thing that is much needed among tie young at this time. ; j A general discussion on the subject of map drawing followed, Messrs. Hedden, Weed, Tiffany, Potter and Herrod, Miss Doom and others taking part. There existed a diversity ot opinion _asto just precisely how much and how litile should be done— whether a mupshould be a map or a picture, etc. ‘Che discussion was livejy and much useful information was gained, If we cannot draw any more vorrect Maps than someof the teachers advocated, it is no wonder there are so many lawsuits about the lotuuuon of nines. Miss Ogden read a well-written paper expluuiing Why-it-is so many applicants for certificates fail on aritnmetic. Messrs. Gassaway and Herrod also spoke on the subject, At recess the Superintendent announced an hour would be devoted by the Institute to examining exhibits. Alter recess Miss Amelia Hook rendered w vocal solo in her usual pleusing manner. ‘Lhe subject of the practicability of a county exnibit at the Institute way discussed at length by various members.

About two years ago a handsome young girl arrived in Sacramento from Nevada City and obtained employment in a widow’s family. The little maiden from the foothills was as sprightly as pretty and in a short time she became a great favorite with her employer and was treated as one of the family. Time rolled on. and the girl was happy and content, but in an evil hour she accepted an invitation to visit the skating rink at the old-Pavilion. The flying forms of the skaters and the sight of such fun on wheels was a revelation to Katy (as she shall be called), and she too, fell a victim to the skating mania and determined to learn to glide. Being decidedly attractive in form and feature, she found no difficulty in securing the assistance of young men who were only too anxious to support her while she was mastering the first evolutions. The one most assiduous and untiring in his efforts to learn Katy to skate, however, was a dapper young skating-rink fiend, who was a constant attendant at the rink and the leader in the contests, carnivals, etc. He was a splendid skater and a smooth talker, and he captured Katy’s affections— with thé"usual skating rink results, In the course of time, the lady by whom Katy was employed discovered that the girl was growing stouter in a way that could not be entirely attributable to the new-founl exercise, and she told the girl of her suspicions. The latter was indignant and denied everything. The lady was not satisfied, however, and called in the) family physician. The girl was furious at this, denounced the proceedings as an assault upon her character and told the doctor of more than thirty years’ experience that he did not know what he was talking about when he said she was in trouble. The next morning, however, Katy was gone. She did not at once go home, but it 1s thought that she went to San Francisco. In ° about. two weeks, though, her father put in an appearance here, having in charge the girl, blood in his eye, and a suspicious bulge in the region of his hip pocket. He made inquiries for the _ young man who had initiated his daughter into the mysteries of the skating rink, and he found him. He escorted the dapper young chap to the County Clerk’s office, a marriage license was procured, and Katy was soon the wife of him whose acquaintance she had made at the Sacramento skating rink, MY TOAST. cert een Not to the queen of fashion; Not to the joweled breast; Not to the slave of fashion; Not to the royal crest.

When Dr. Kirkland was president of Harvard college, Porter's famous hostelry in North Cambridge wasa favorite resort. One of the chief attractions of Porter's was the “flip,” a delectable compound of a decidedly spirituous flavor, which the college students keenly appreciated and did not hesitate to brave the coldest weather to enjoy. Of course these practices did not escape the attention of President Kirkland, who went up to the hostelry and asked to see the landlord. Porter, who knew the president, was greatly disturbed, as he knew ho should receive a severe rebuke from the head of the college for catering to the tastes of convivially inclined students, “Mr. Porter,” said Dr, Kirkland, “I understand my young men come up here and drink your flip.” “Yes, sir,” replied the tavern keeper, in a voice which told. how he deprecated the admonition, “they do,” “Lat me have: some of that flip,” said the dignified president. Whereupon a mug of the beverage was brought out and was tasted by Dr. Kirkland. Then, fixing a stern glance upon Porter, who almost trembled under it, the president said; “And my, yourig men come out here and drink this stuff, do they?" “Yes, sir,” meekly replied the tavern “Well,” said-Dr;~Kirkland, draining the mug, “I should think they would,”—Boston Post, Obtaining Materials for ‘‘ Impressions.” A French tourist, who went to England a few years ago on one of the now popular “all around the world” tours of. observation, inquired, as soon as he had reached Liverpool, where he could find the then prinie minister, Mr. Glasstone, The hotel. people told him that Mr. Gladstone did not live in Liverpool. “Not live here,” said the Frenchman, “you much mistake.

Judge Robinson, who has for several months past been editing the Herald of this city, announces that he will for atime atleast abandon: that occupation in order to give more attention to his mining interests. The Transcrier man is for one very sorry to have him do this, as the relations of the two have been of the pleasantest sort. Mr. Robinson is not only a writer of superior ability, but he has a soul above and beyond the spites and meannesses that sometimes get mixed up with the business.

There is prevalent an impression that Boston Ravine, Grass Valley’s blooming southern suburb, is so called because a party of Bostonians were the original settlers of the place. A search of the early mining records of Grass Valley district indicates that this is the wrong explanation. In those old records frequent reference is made by locators in describing the boundaries of their claims to the house and lot of a man named Boston. A pioneer says that the ravine was named from this Mr. Boston. Good Results in Every Case, D. A. Bradford, wholesale paper dealer of Chattanooga, Tenn., writes that he was seriously afflicted with a severe cold that settled on his lungs; had tried many remedies without benefit.

A, Bad Case That Could Not be Made Much Worse—The Animosity of the Anti-Miners, _& San Francisco, May 2, 1887. Eprror Transcript :—May Day was observed yesterday by a grand outpouring to the park and ocean beach. -Itmaybe safely-said-that-on a pleasant Sunday, more people, including women and children, pass the hours at these favorite resorts than at all the churches put together. San Francisco is more favored in healthful resorts than-any—other great city in the world. No where else can a beautiful park be found so near the ocean beach, and both so near the city. The Bois de Bologne at Paris, Hyde and St. James parks of London, etc., are “attractive in their way ; but they lack the grand swell of the solemn ocean and the fiesh salt breezes, that are so invigorating after a week’s toil at the work bench or in the close office. And there is now, or. soon will be; littl left. to be desired on the score of accessibility. The cable. cars running and to’run to the park and beach tak: people from almost any part of th city, and for a f:w cents. set them down among the flowers or on the clean sand. Adolph Sutro is the présent owner of the Ocean House and adjacent property, and is spending a good. deal oi the money he got for his interest in the -Sutro-tunnelin-making that re: gion attractive for visitors. Year. ago he was strenuously contending for a loan of $2,000,000 from the Unitea Stutes government to drive his celebrated “hole in the ground.” Wha he could not get out of the government he got the‘ Britishers to inyest, ana they still have the “hele” while he has the only profit that has ever beer made froin it, and that was the money they paid him to dropout. It_is for tunate for the government that Sutro the most accomplished lobbyist know! to fuine, did not persuade it to advance the desired capital. Well, i English money beautifies the sur roundings of San Francisco, I for onc do not object. It was a very pleasant sight yesterday to see the little ones enjoyin, themselves in the park. But. th Sharon bequest will make more am ple and special provision for them by and by. Speaking of the proposed railroad from Shingle Springs to Phecerville, the Oakland Tribune takes ovcasion tc puff El Dorado county as the Queen o the foothills. Perhaps it is, but you could show that paper something in the shape of a Queen in Nevada county, if he ever ventured away from the fogay, sultry-spet_yclept Oakland. The same writér says: ‘The hy=draulic miners are doing themselves infinite injury by-indulging—inthreats against parties who go into the mining counties, with or without official commissions, to ascertain whether the miners are observing the law. ‘The immunity which can be gained by this course of intimidation must necessarily be short and profitless, and it will tell heavily against the miners when the matter comes up in Congress the next time.” How the hydraulic miners can get theircase into a worse plight than the present total confiscation ~of all their property, and mining made a crime before the law, while hoards of greedy spies overrun the foothills, eking out their stipends by blackmail, and indulging in revenge where they cannot bleed the miners; magnifying every act done, to the prejudice of the miners, and often causing innocent nien to be hauled by deputy marshals and sheriffs scores of miles from home ‘ how things can be worse than this is hard to ‘un.erstand. The Congresstan who représents Oakland, and whom the Enquirer wears: by, was one of.our most bitter foes, and worked with Stanford, (who got his first start by selling kerosene to miners) to have mining declared a crime by United States law. The miners have seen their property tied up, their machinery rusting on the ground, their liberties infringéd, and every avenue of hope closed by judges who. had prejudged their cases in advance, and determined to cinch them before a word of testiniony was heard, and it is not unnatural that here and there some are found who kick against the pricks, Will this learned scribe please. tell what we may expect from Congress? Is Stariford waiting to see if the miners are submissive before changing his course? Is Jo McKenna showing any sigy of repentance for having branded as a crime one of the most ancient and honored pursuits known to this State or the world?—a pursuit sanctioned by the patents issued to Store tor Sale.

THE TEACHERS. — en Second Day of the County Institute— Some Able Essays and Lively Discussions. At the Institute yesterday morning the reporter noticed that when the roll was called a large number of the teachers were marked absent as usual. When the » Secretary had finished marking, Miss Nettie’ Breed favored the Institute with an instrumental solo, after which S. A. Bulfinch read an essay upon the subject of teaching grammar. All that the reporter feels like saying about Mr. Bulfinch’s essay is that in our Ppinion it was the best written essay upon that subject. that we have ever heajd or read. It should be published, together Mr. Bulfinch’s remarks upon the subject, and spread broadcast throughout the State so as to be read by all educators. Itshould be not only read, but’ practiced. By the way, Mr. Bulfinch’s idea of teaching-grammar would to a great extent make parents, as well asschoolmarms, teachers of language. Hencé we say it should be published in full by the TRANSCRIPT, or some other first-class live paper, so that all may know and practice the many sensible and excel‘Tent ideas advanced by Mr. Bulfinch. After the essay the subject .of teaching grammar was discussed by Messrs. Crowell, Herrod, Stone, Gray and Hill, Pee The discussion, which lasted but a few minutes, being over, Section work began and the Institute went to work inearnest. The réporter was drawn in the B class as usual; where were a majority of the best. looking schoolmarms. Prof. T, B. Gray had charge of this division. He outlined the Gruby system of teaching arithmetic. Many. of the B division had an opportunity of teHing-how~much-or-howtittle they knew about Gruby. We must confess that we are about as ignorant \pow of just what Gruby teaches as we Were before the exercise. All that spoke of the old German’s ideas seemed a little in doubt as to just what his method is, or was, and if they all feel about this matter as the reporter does they willlose very little sleep in delving for the Gruby system or methods. We are a_crank who believes

and has great confidence in Americans and American systems. A recess of ten minutes was now ordered. After recess we were among the B’s again and listened to Miss Bartling on the subject of geography. Miss Bartling.read to the division, in a very pleasing way, an essay upon the teaching of geography. Her Mary Hall manner of telling pleasing stories about the different countries suits us exactly. T::ere is no doubt in our mind now, or in fact there has never been since we first read Mary Hall's stories about tiie method, but that it is just the way to teach geography to children, If Miss Bartling. teaches geography to her class as she read about teaching it while the B class was before her, those beys and girls of Nevada City that are privileged to attend her school and don’t enjoy the atudy of geography must admit it is not the fault of the teacher. Many B’s talked of what their experience in teaching geography had been. Just what they. said the reporter is unable to say, but one thing we know, and that is that the B’s talked the A’s out of time and can do it right along. AFTERNOON SESSION. Miss L. Hinds and Miss Jessie Rich played an instrumental duet in excellent manner.” . Miss Maggie Riley was on account of illness unable to respond when called upon for her essay on elementary grammar: Mrs. T. G. Farrer took her place and read a charming essay on teaching elementary science in the lower grades. We are sorry that such essays Cannot be published and read by ull parents and teachers, especially by parents, who by following the method outlined could direct the minds of their children in a proper course of useful reading, a thing that is much needed among tie young at this time. ; j A general discussion on the subject of map drawing followed, Messrs. Hedden, Weed, Tiffany, Potter and Herrod, Miss Doom and others taking part. There existed a diversity ot opinion _asto just precisely how much and how litile should be done— whether a mupshould be a map or a picture, etc. ‘Che discussion was livejy and much useful information was gained, If we cannot draw any more vorrect Maps than someof the teachers advocated, it is no wonder there are so many lawsuits about the lotuuuon of nines. Miss Ogden read a well-written paper expluuiing Why-it-is so many applicants for certificates fail on aritnmetic. Messrs. Gassaway and Herrod also spoke on the subject, At recess the Superintendent announced an hour would be devoted by the Institute to examining exhibits. Alter recess Miss Amelia Hook rendered w vocal solo in her usual pleusing manner. ‘Lhe subject of the practicability of a county exnibit at the Institute way discussed at length by various members.

About two years ago a handsome young girl arrived in Sacramento from Nevada City and obtained employment in a widow’s family. The little maiden from the foothills was as sprightly as pretty and in a short time she became a great favorite with her employer and was treated as one of the family. Time rolled on. and the girl was happy and content, but in an evil hour she accepted an invitation to visit the skating rink at the old-Pavilion. The flying forms of the skaters and the sight of such fun on wheels was a revelation to Katy (as she shall be called), and she too, fell a victim to the skating mania and determined to learn to glide. Being decidedly attractive in form and feature, she found no difficulty in securing the assistance of young men who were only too anxious to support her while she was mastering the first evolutions. The one most assiduous and untiring in his efforts to learn Katy to skate, however, was a dapper young skating-rink fiend, who was a constant attendant at the rink and the leader in the contests, carnivals, etc. He was a splendid skater and a smooth talker, and he captured Katy’s affections— with thé"usual skating rink results, In the course of time, the lady by whom Katy was employed discovered that the girl was growing stouter in a way that could not be entirely attributable to the new-founl exercise, and she told the girl of her suspicions. The latter was indignant and denied everything. The lady was not satisfied, however, and called in the) family physician. The girl was furious at this, denounced the proceedings as an assault upon her character and told the doctor of more than thirty years’ experience that he did not know what he was talking about when he said she was in trouble. The next morning, however, Katy was gone. She did not at once go home, but it 1s thought that she went to San Francisco. In ° about. two weeks, though, her father put in an appearance here, having in charge the girl, blood in his eye, and a suspicious bulge in the region of his hip pocket. He made inquiries for the _ young man who had initiated his daughter into the mysteries of the skating rink, and he found him. He escorted the dapper young chap to the County Clerk’s office, a marriage license was procured, and Katy was soon the wife of him whose acquaintance she had made at the Sacramento skating rink, MY TOAST. cert een Not to the queen of fashion; Not to the joweled breast; Not to the slave of fashion; Not to the royal crest.

When Dr. Kirkland was president of Harvard college, Porter's famous hostelry in North Cambridge wasa favorite resort. One of the chief attractions of Porter's was the “flip,” a delectable compound of a decidedly spirituous flavor, which the college students keenly appreciated and did not hesitate to brave the coldest weather to enjoy. Of course these practices did not escape the attention of President Kirkland, who went up to the hostelry and asked to see the landlord. Porter, who knew the president, was greatly disturbed, as he knew ho should receive a severe rebuke from the head of the college for catering to the tastes of convivially inclined students, “Mr. Porter,” said Dr, Kirkland, “I understand my young men come up here and drink your flip.” “Yes, sir,” replied the tavern keeper, in a voice which told. how he deprecated the admonition, “they do,” “Lat me have: some of that flip,” said the dignified president. Whereupon a mug of the beverage was brought out and was tasted by Dr. Kirkland. Then, fixing a stern glance upon Porter, who almost trembled under it, the president said; “And my, yourig men come out here and drink this stuff, do they?" “Yes, sir,” meekly replied the tavern “Well,” said-Dr;~Kirkland, draining the mug, “I should think they would,”—Boston Post, Obtaining Materials for ‘‘ Impressions.” A French tourist, who went to England a few years ago on one of the now popular “all around the world” tours of. observation, inquired, as soon as he had reached Liverpool, where he could find the then prinie minister, Mr. Glasstone, The hotel. people told him that Mr. Gladstone did not live in Liverpool. “Not live here,” said the Frenchman, “you much mistake.
