U5, Circuit Curt _—_— In the United States Circuit Court at San Francisco, yesterday morning, two important mining decisions were. rendered. In the case of the United States vs. the North Bloomfield Mining Company of this county, to restrain defendant from dumping debris into the South Yuba river (which stream is a branch of the Sacramento river), his honor found for defendant. He holds that where debris is properly impounded, as this mine was shown in the hearing to have done, the law has been complied with. For several years past the mine has been worked by the elevator process, the water coming out of it after the gtavel was washed down from the banks being impounded in large. reservoirs, where it was‘ permitted to’ stand till} most of the sand and earth it carried had sunk to the bottom, and_ from which it passed but slightly tinged in color and, carrying no appreciable amount of the debris. On numerous occasions has the company been brought into court and fined for alleged conte mpt of the injunction issued long ago to prevent it from tailing into a public a way. All of this time it has been conscientiously endeavering to obey the spirit as well as the letter of the law, and the Transcripr has maintained from the first that with a fair interpretation of the evidence and the law it would have been found to be operating legally. That Judge Gilbert has considered the proof without prejudice and has been governed by the cold law in his findings, is apparent from the result. This is a decision of the utmost importance to hydraulic gold mining in California. It )virtually declares that industry a legal one when it is legally conducted, while on the other hand the late Judge Sawyer as good as outlawed it, regardless of the conditions under which it sought to exist. It has all along been common belief in this part of the State that so long as Sawyer roemained on the bench and had the dispowould be no hope for the rehabilif&tion of hydraulicking in any form; and it was further believed that should he cease to preside in the auits they would be differently deteriained by whoever might succeed him. The outcome ao far seems to have justified those belief, The second debris ease decided yesterday was in Judge Hawley’s depart. ment, and was substantially to the effect that the hydraulic mines on the Feather river may operate by impounding their slickens after the fashion of the North Bloomfiéld Company, This they can and will do. : Taken all around, the outlook for the hydraulic miners is improving daily: And what is for his good is for the good of the whole country, for there is no branch of mining ‘that can when fairly treated and protected in its rights give employment to more. men or add more largely to the nation's material wealth. Racing. The Grass Valley Jockey Club announces ite programme of races ‘for the one-day meeting at Watt Park on October 21st, Columbus Day. ‘There will be in all five races, three trotting and two running races.

The Grass Valley Union says: Tircy L, Ford, of Downieville, the Republican nominee for Joint Senator, is well and favorably known to the voters of this district, as his practice as a lawyer and public speaker has brought him in close relation with the people of Nevada, Sierra and Plumas.

The stock is owned principally in New. York.. When the New Yorkers invested in it they thought amine inGrass Valley meant nothing more nor less than a fortune to each of them. No good news came from the mine after they had put their coin inte it, and the stock was being peddled out at a few cetits a share. They got disgusted and sent an expert out to investigate. That investigation went on for about ten days and the expert went to the telegraph office to notify the New Yorkers that that there was nothing in the mine, no quartz ledge or any sign ofcne; that the ground was more suitable for a cabbage orchard than anything else. It was true that the mine was in the vicinity of the famous Idaho, which had yielded its millions, but the Brunswick was not -in it., The expert concluded tinally that he would wait a dayor two longer before making his report and see what the men would bring forth by hard work in developing the mine, The next day to his astonishment a ledge was found, the expert telegraphed the prospect was good for a big mine, and now the New Yorkers are willing and eager to put up cain to prospect the property i a thorough manner. —-—+-~@e-PERSUNAL MENTION, Souial and Other Notes About Loople Ol and Young.

Mail carriers are sometimes prone te make mistakes, just as other people are. Not only in their business, for that occuis often With the most careful, but someiimes socially, It wis only & few evenings ago that one of the East End mail boys made such @ mistake socially as to place him ina ridiculous manner before the few friends who have. learned of this mistake. For some time past Uncle Sam’s agent hasbeen paying moticeable attention to one.of East End's fair belles, that is, in an indirect and seemingly unconcerned manner. In fact, the young lady did not know of the intended attention until he asked permission one day to call upon her that evening. When he would go to the house to deliver any letters to the young lady he would always ask if Miss —— was in, always using her Christian name, and in this way he became, as he thought, pretty well acquaintod with the object of his affections, The young lady was not reciprocal in her feelings, and when she was asked to allow him to call she hesitated somewhat, but finally said yes. The young man was not acquainted with the fact that this certain young lady had a sister almost the exact image of herself, but she knew it and was. determined that the sister should help ker in her cleverly laid scheme—the ‘sister should entertain the “letter carrier.” All arrangements were made for the evening, and when the doorbell sounded the sister answered and the young man was ushered into the room. He did not detect any difference in the sister and was not aware that he was talking with any other girl than the one he had asked to call upon, The evening hours flew quickly and he was about to depart, when he began pouring forth some endearing terms to the young lady, who listened atteutively until he had finished, when, with a smothered laugh on her face, she asked, “It's my sister you wish to see, is it noi?” The letter carrier was dumfounded, He had committed hignself, and to one wholly uninterested in the affair, He reached for his hat and with one bound reached the door and was soon: wandcring down the avenue beneath the electric light. He was surely a wiser if not a happier man’ ‘The letters are still delivered to the house, but the letter man is scarcely ever seen, and he never asks for Miss —~. —Pittsburg Press. The Currant Before It Is Dried. I must confess that I have alwivs blindly supposed (when I thought of it #t all) that the currant of the plum pudding was the same fruit as the currant of our gardens—that slightly acrid red berry which grows on bushes that folluw the lines of back fences—bushes that have patches of weedy ground under them where hens. congregate. I fancied that by some process unknown to me, at the hands-of persons equally unknown (perhaps those who bring flattened raisins from grapes), these berries were dried, and that they then became the well known ornament of the Christmas cake. It was at Zante that my shameful ignorance was made clear to me. Here . learned that the dried fruit of commerce is a dwarf grape, which has nothing in common with currant jelly. Its English name, currant, is taken from the French “yaisin de Corinthe,” or Corinth grapo, a title bestowed because the fruit wus first brought into notice at Corinth. We have stolen this name in the most unreasonable \ ay for our red berry, Then, to make the confusion worse, as soon as we have put the genuine curranta into our puddings and cakes we turn around and call them *‘plums!” The real currant, the dwarf grape of Corinth, is about as large as a gooseberry when ripe, and its color is a deep viol t black; the vintage takes place in Augu: , It is not a hardy vine. It attains luxuriance, I was told, only in‘ Greece; and even there it is restricted to the northern Peloponnesus, the shores of the Gulf of Corinth, and the [Ionian islands.—Constance Fenimore Woolson in Harper's, Strange Applications. The Salvation Army has in London a bureau of information, where ladies may obtain servants and those in need of employn at find work, It has been extraordina ily successful. During the first year 1,800 employers found servants, and a thousand girls applied for work, Strange applications come to the office. One lady m ‘ommended her departing servant as ‘clean, tidy, honest, sober, truthful and 4 good worker,” Woncdering Why waid and mistress should part under those conditions, the bureau found that a terribiy bad temper was the cause of separation, “But, strangely enough,” said the chief, “it haypened that a lady had just applied to us for a servant with a bad temper, believing that such girls make the cleanest handmaids. So that we are able to mect every requirement."— Youth's Companion, Why Meerschaam “Culors.'* Meerschaum would not color at al) but for the fact thatit is boiled in wax.
