COUNTY and CIFY OFFICIAL PRESS. Tat AGKICULTURAL -CoLLeée.—We Gave heretofore reviewed the designs of the prdposed School of Agricalture, Mising abd Mechanic Arts, and endeavored to show how well Nevada county is adapted for the Aocation of suck a School, on account of its ‘accessibility and adaptability of svil and climate. We urged that since the object is to midke the proposed College a mining as well as an agricultural School, that Jocality which can offer the greatest diversity of soil and the best farm ‘fur the study of agriculture, and at the same time enable students to become familiar with the practical Working of the mines should be selected over all others. Many of our citizens have come to the conclusion that any induceanéots which might be offered by them ~~~ would have ne weight with the Board of '~ Directors, and thereture bave taken little or no interest in the matter. The hands of the Supervisors are tied by law, and eon@eqtently the county cannot become a bidder for.the School.. We believe that it is a mistaken idea which induces this apathy among our people. The other quarters of the State have all the public buildings, and one of the leading objects of the College ‘ean only be attained by having it located near the mines. Nevada county is the leading mining county in the State, and her citiwen pay larger incomes thaa those of any other county, Saa Francisco alone except; ed. We have twenty wen who could give five thousand dollars to secure such « build—ing and net feel it. Besides these advantages, no county can offer such a diversity of soil ‘nor better lands fur farming purposes, Witain a mile of this city, a ranch of five actes wa¢ bought on credit for $4,000, and-puid for out of the produéts io less than fifteen months. A soil that is ca~pable of this, is certainly all that could be . desired. Let our people make a united effort for the Cellege, and we believe it can The Bulletin of Wednesday has a well writtes article on thie subject, in which it advises the Board to exercise the greatest care in locating the School. That paper “*Binee the design of the institution is “to afford thorough instruction in agriculturd, wising, and the natural sciences con~ nected therewith,” and tu combine physi¢al with mental education in both the practical branches named, there would seem te be a great deal of propriety in the estion that the college should aot. be fixed in & location ‘exelusively agricultural, but iu one that affords equal opportunities for practical instruction in farming aud mining.— The Nevada TRANsSCHIPT claims that a farm can be obtained in that county, in close proximity to the remarkable mines of Grass Valley, which would, for richness and variety of svil, beauty of scenery and excellence of climate, be waequaled in the State, and which would also, by reason of its closeness to the line of the Central’ Picific Railroad, convecting with the entire railway system of the State, fulfil the couditiod of easy accessibility. Such consider@tions, supported by ample proofs and by a handsoare pebectiption vt wovey, ought to have great weight with the Board of Diectore, butit is earnestly hoped that that will deliverate long and carefully before wakiug aby devisiun on a matter of eUoh iniportance. On the choice of a good location will depend in » very large degree the success of the contemplated College, aud tlie step, as well as every other cuonnected with the establishment and orgunigation of the institution, vught tu be wust carefully considered. Pohtieal influence @od local rivalry have proved detriments! to nearly all the arene ae ~ tabliabed by the State, and in this Board Wil eerce ve aepecial admonition.” These words of caution are so trué that they need no argument to support them.— There is yet time enough to locate the Séhool, and if the Board does not exercise the'greatest cure, weighing all the advantages, and giving due importance to all the intended objects of the School, the institution will become a monument ef their folly. The place where all the ende designed, can be accomplished without a sacrifice of the health or comfort of students, is the place for the College, and these advantages ‘should outweigh millions of money io lotating the Schvol. kat shipments of pitch and rosin from ile, emount to fifty tons per week.— ber ae ag ag OD Cort i ui : 32,500 pounds of plambage were recently shipped for Stockton, frum the vicinity of ' bounties offered for recruits are large in the dwelling, hotel, or store, and adds that if the sll, # was read in private.

The City Council and Commercial Bonarda of Philadelphia refused to take any part in the reception of Johnson, and only & meagre crowd of journeyman tailors turned out to meethim. Though they ought to be infurmed in-some way that Johnson bas disgraced the “craft” as no tailor ever did before. i — RECRUITING,—The recruiting officers of the “Bread and Butter Brigade” are out North under the lead of A. Johnson. The way of post offices, but volunteers are mighty sceree. There arc'a few old fossils. of Democracy acting as “bounty jumpers,” but they “wont do to bet on,” they’ll take the bread and butter and thea damn the brigade. JONNSON telegraphed to the military io New Orleans, “You must sustain the civil authorities.” Sheridan telegraphed to Grant that the “Civil authorities commitmitted a most cold bloeded and atrocious‘ murder.” What, then, is Johnson’s share in the guilt? Accessory betore the fact. eo . %Jounson’s Marcn.—There ie. a high eld tune.called, ‘The Devil Among the Tailors,” which an emiveot musician is reconstructing, to be ‘re-named. “Johnson's March.” ‘He will not bate it done in time for the President's Westward tour, but it will be all ready for his expedition to Fortréss Monroe, after impeachment. — Sy TxHexe will be a great colt race at the San Mateo Shell Park, on the 3d and 4th days of September, for a stuke of $8,000.
