COUNTY & CITY OF FICIAL PRESS aa ' FRIDAY, NOV. 23, 1866. ee in =] A Granp Ikrication Prosect—A ‘San Francisco company of capitalists have just completed the preliminary survey of #canfl for irrigation, whereby most of the unproductive lands on the west side of the San Joaquin, in the. counties of Fresno, Merced, Stanislaus and San Jeaquin will be reclaimed. The company has abundant means to ‘complete the work projected, and they. propose to begin the canal . early in the Spring of next year. The Stockton Independent says, the water is to be taken out of Fresno slough, near Firebaugh’s Ferry—the slough to be fed in Summer and Autumn from -Tulare Lake, by meansof a canal cut from the lake to the head of the slough.’ . The chief sources of supply to Tulare Lake are King’s river and Kern river ; stream#that head in the region of perpetual snow and bring down each a volume of water.as large as that of Feather river. The supply of water will, therefore, be abundant and perpetual.— The canal is to be made wide and deep enough to answor the purpose of navigation as well as irrigation ; and as the coun_try through which it passes is unbroken by hills and not intersected by streams, there will -be no locks or aqueducts required, and the only cost will be the simple excavation of the soil for, say five feet. deep and thirty feet in’width. It will probably be the cheapest canal of its length in the world. . The company expect to irrigate over one million:acres of land, now of no account whatever, save as pasture lands for about three months in the year, but by irtigation to be made as productive in ceShe Drily Seanseript,. } nursery chair. Waat Next ?—A new patent baby-tender has beén introduced, which bids fair to come into general use. It is an ingeni. ous arrangement. «It can be converted iato a. spring cradle, reclining couch, spring chair, baby-walker, ottoman, hobby-horse, baby-jumper, baby horse, nurse chair and: The motion of the babytender, which is vertical and noiseless, is derived from a spiral spring .in the otto man, and unlike that of the common rocking or swinging cradle, isin tho highest degree healthy, delightful and*soothing. It_relieves the mother from the hardest part of baby-tending. When packed the baby-tender alone measures seven cubic feet, and weighs about one hundred pounds. The horse adds about one-fourth to the weight and measurement. The prices vary from $30 to $55. Seth. T. Damon, 111, Montgomery street, San Francisco, is the sole’agent for the Pacific coast. THANKSGIVING PRAYER.—Pishop Kip announces that the Episcopal Churches will be gpen for morning service on Thursday, November 29th, and the following. prayer will be used in this diocese, in addition to the service set forth in the prayer book and immediately after the general thanksgiving : Almighty God, who hast in all ages revealed Thy power and mercy in the preservation of those who put their trust in Thee, we yield Thee our unfeigned thanks for all the mercies Thou hast granted us, and more especially for the manifestations of Thy providence, for which we have = to: praise Thee this day in Thy 1oly temple. We offer our thanksgiving for the blessings with which the past year has been crowned, that we have been preserved from the evils of war, that peace and prosperity have been within our borders, the labors of industry promoted and we been free from the desolations of flood, pestilence and famine. Bless thoge in authority over us. Give them wisdom from on high and so rule their hearts and strengthen their hands that all things may be conducted in accordance with Thy will, and peace and happiness, religion and piety be established reals, vines, fruits and cultivated grasses . among us for all generations. asthe very best parts of that county or the region around San. Francisco Bay.— The canal will bring the Tulare lake country to the very door of San Francisco; atid at least till the completion ‘of the Western Pacific Railroad, Stockton will be the depot and re-shipping point of all the trade of the upper valley of the San Joaquin, which ought to quadruple the present tonnage. We regard the project as eminently practical, and hope to see it pushed forward with energy, It will. ‘make'this valley the great hive of agricultural industry of the State, and can hardly fail to enrich its projectors. THe Gotp Hin, Mine.—We saw a very rich piece of specimen . quartz which has recently begn taken from the Gold Hill mine, This ledge, be it remembered, was the first quartz.discovery made in.Nevada county, and was made early in 1850. The Gold -Hi}l mine has a reputation almost as extensive as the Ophir of old. ; It has turned out more gold than any other quartz mine in California ; has undergone. more changes proprictorially than any other mine in Nevada eounty, and has enriched ‘and financially wrecked as many men as any other ‘mine we know of. For the past few years the Gold Hill mine has not been very extenfixely or energetically worked ; in fact it has been resting ‘on its golden reputation, earned years ago. But the mine haa,recently passed into the hands of Hooper & Co., who are determined to work it thoroughly, and, as we . have every reason to believe, with the best of success. The specimen recently taken from this ledge is very rich, bringing old Grass Valleyans back to a period when Gold Hill alnost daily disgorged its car loads of specimen quarty. So says the Srnaxce Dmeecrion.~Among the letters received by Wells, Fargo & Co. last “evening, says the Alta of the 20th, was one bearing the following direction : “From the Mogabetes to the Bay dnd forthe I tmice Sve conts ; 9,3 Send SBfe otter t 8 man of sense: ‘ mee E Legge i his ine; eas Francisco is the place which you'll his cheerful face.” ” * . Yo Semrre OvTDoNE.—The discovery __ lately been made, says the Slockton Independent, ofa waterfallon the South Fork _* of the Tuolumne river, 2,000 feet in hight! That is 709 feet more than the famed Yo Continue, we pray Thee, Thy goodness to us; that we, being saved by Thy mighty power, may evermore live in Thy faith and fear, and to Thy glory, through Jesus Christ, our Lord and Saviour, Amen. ge NEw MARKET.—San Francisco is to have a new Market on the site of Trinity Church, Pine street, and running through to California street. It will bea fine affair, The Trinity Church lot cost seventy thousand dollars, and that of California street will cost stillmore. The building is tobe an ornament to the city, PRESENT.—Queen “¥mma gave the Captain of the Vanderbilt a beautiful Kouwood calabash filled with poi, and some fish cooked in ti leaves. Fish and poi is the Hawatian staff of life, says the Herald. SuppDEN Dratn.—John M. Burnett, a discharged soldier, who had been married two weeks, died suddenly near Santa Cruz, November 15th, and was buried on the 17th, by the Masonic fraternity, -_ Se WINE IN THE. SANDWICH IsLANDs.— George Schmidt, formerly of Sonoma Valley, California, has made three barrels of wine from his three-year old vineyard at Lahania. Goop MovEMrNT.—An effort is being made in San Rafael, Marin County, to in. duce storekeepers to.close up on Sunday, Omrnovus.—The Danville (Va.) Register has seen aspider-web on which the word “War” was distinctly traced in gossamer CALIFORNIANS INJURED.—In the great railroad disaster; which occured on the Atlantic and Great Western Railroad, near Cerry,; Pennsylvania,on the 17th, Mr. F, E. Kellogg and lady, set down in the list as from this State, were severely wounded, Of the one hundred passengers on the train, there were but two that escaped uninjured. Ir is stated that Mr. Hudson, of the New York Herald,is writing a history of the Associated Press. L. M. Krurrscunirt, just elected Assessor of Storey county, was formerly Treasurer of Trinity county. es . ONLY six hundred names have been éitered on the Great Register of Shasta county up to the present time. ~ ON the night of the 6th instant snow lines, and thinks it prognosticates. trouble. . ANOTHER Doper.—John Bigler received from Internal Reveate Commissioner E. A. Rollins, a telegram dated Washington, November 20th, tothe effect that he (Bigier) go on and make the assessments, and also that Collector Briggs had been given orders to co-operate with Bigler in the transaction of all business appertain. ing to their respectivs offices as public offiers, also that L. Curtis, Internal Revenue Inspector, has been ordered td assist Bigler in arranging his office, etc. Wuat Say You?—What say our Copperhead friends about the fact that the leading Copperhead paper -in the West-—the Chicago Times—advoéates negro suffrage? ‘One-Copperhead has got his eyes open. The Cops begin to suspect that the ne groesare intelligent, and that if-they gain the right of suffrage they will be apt to throw their votes on the side of the party favoring universal suffrage. The Union party favored emancipation, and the negroes fought forthe Union. If the negroes gain suffrage they are quite intelligent enough to know to whom they will be indebted for the boon. SE THE WoopsipE CLAIM.--Fhe—Placerville Courier, 17th instant, thus speaks of of the Woodside claim recently noticed by telegraph: They have been forsome days working out aslab of gold, the size of which will not be known until it is blocked out, which process is now being actively pushed forward; two and a half or three feet of it is now exposed,a very pretty sight indeed, and only a few miles from the spot where over eighteen years ago, Marshall picked up “the first piece of yellow staff.” Verily our minés are worked out.
