In the first place the main supply reservoirs are located in so high a region that ice and snow form on the warfare to a thickness of 15 to 20 fect, and the location is so remote that in. the Winter season the works cannot be reached. Inthe region of Fordyes Valley the snow falls to adepth of 24to 30 feet. Below the niain reservoir the snow fall ia also very “heavy, and in the Winter season whole sections of the flame are swept away by snow slides and repairs are impossible for weeks and months. ‘the mines were shut off from a full supply of water from last December to the first.of May. In the second place every drop of water that can be basbanded from the South Yuba is heeded in Placer aud,Nevada Coun. ties to develop the mines and supply irrigating ditches, and ita diversion to San Francisco to the extent of 100,000,000 gallons per day, would work & positive injury fo tlfat section’ of the State.” The'works and franchise have beeti heldfor'years by a stock company, but have recently been perchased, by Alvings Hay ward “Yor the et sum of $610,000 ip order to keep dhomt from ‘falling’ ito thehands. of English, capitalists who te monopolize the water for eertain mines.of their own, As ‘the works now pay a very hundsome interest on the capitalinvested, there will not probably be any great effort ‘anade to dispose of the scheme to the <mity, guless the city is inclined to buy it. ~ a jase ieunatnersnnremed ae Alta says: Ov supitot Senator Hoo.

Strennous effortg-were made on the part of the defence to have the trial come off at Truckee, but the Judge would not allow it,. Most of the witnesses will not go until taken down on abench warrant, in which case the county. will have to stand tbe expenses. After seeuring the jury the examination of witnesses will. occupy 3 or 4 days, as there are agreat many of them andthey will be closely cross-questioned. October Elections. On the fOth day of October next, ‘being thé second Tuesday of the month, State elections will be held in Indiana, Ohio, Towa, Georgia and West Virginia. Thé result of the elections in Ohio -and Indiana is looked ‘upon as important in its beating apon the November election. In 1872 Indiana gave Grant a ma jority of 32,515, and Hendridks, Democrat, for Governor, a majority of; 1,148.»,Iu 1874 Neff, Demeorat, for Seoretaty of State had a majorit y of 17,252. Ohio will undoubtedly go Republican, as the party there is thoronghly organized and united. Ohioin 1872 gave Grant a Majority of 37,531; in 1873 Allen, for Goyernor, had # mojority of 817; in 1874 State bud ‘a’ majority of 17,: 202, in 1875 Hayes, Republican, for Gover-. nor had-a-majority of 5,544.

A meeting « ard Taylor’s letters ‘to. the Tribune, Be Belcher 3134, Ladies’ Misses’ and Chil. . the Citizens ¥ he expresses his astonishment. that So few of the rich class attend the Exhibition, and very few of the most fayoréd cl asses of Philadelphia, are Tepresented. On examination of the hotel registers, it is shown that visitors from every State and Territory are here. One of the hotels in elese proximityto the grounds, comfortably. accommodated forty-two bundréd guests one night Jast week, at very cheap rates: but many prefer, and find it much more convenient to’stay in the heart of the city, where they can be provided for, even less crowded and at less expense, at boarding houses. Many are induced to go to. the hotel that I mention, be_ cause of the announcement of ‘its terms, being one dollar per day; but the accommodations do not ¢xce! those of boarding houses;-and_ the hotel is conducted on the Earopean plan, meals being furnished ala carte, and in'the end are mach more expensive than buarding by the day, as excellent board and quarters can be readsly procured at $1 50 per day. The side shows and temporary buildings iu thé vicinity of the Jate fire, bave been condemned by the Grand Jary, and the Mayor has ordered the poliee to immediately remove all the buildings that’ have ‘been erected without authority. Many partes iad leased ground for six months, for one thousand dollars, and bas built booths pat a trifling expense; but the patronage was very slender for the first four months, aud now that business is just beginuing to be brisk, and thére is a prospect of theirinvestment paying it is all knocked in the head by the fmperative order of the Mayor. The loss by the recent tire, footed ‘up, ath dunts to about one hundred and forty-five thousand dollars. Last Tuesday night at a: late hour, the Mayor and his police foree, made « Yaid on oné of the variety theatres on Elm avenue. At the time; twenty young girls who represent Jiying statuary, were, busily evgaged in performing the Can-Can, . They, the proprietor, and some of the spectators, were conducted to the'station hotisé to awaita further hearing. Every precuntion-is being taken in all thé departments within the enclosure to prevert fires>and nas of the most dangerous ‘exbibits in the Goveen ment ie ‘was ordered to be removed.
