But, sad to relate for the Governor’s honor and sincerity, after it signing or retarning it, till the close of the session, thus killing the measure. Thus, through Governor Haight’s selfstultification, not even -one~ anti-Chinese bill became a law. The workingmen will probably believe what he tells them the next time he goes to stump the State in a political campaign. said Mr. Campion, the management of this work, I could have put five hundred men to work a week ago, and five . hundred more to-day, and thus all could be earning a living, instead of being deceived from day to day ‘to satisfy the schemes of politicians who care nothing for our interests. Though poor, we cannot be subsidized, but those subsidized, scheming, bundering politicians are ever dtawing our blood from us, and make their living in that way. It is those pohtical bummers who trade in politics for a living, who haye ruined you and left you idle to-day.” The whole trouble in this affair orig. inated gs the speaker says in the bluodering of politicians. After the bill was passed, the San Francisco delegation, tearing that the control of-work would in some way fall intd Republican hands amended the Jaw by a bill offered by Hays, and thus changed the whole status-of the case, and produced all the trouble by continually interfering. This is only one of the many instances where working urganizations have been sought to be used by demagogues, and from the speech we give above,which is a fair type of the tenor of the meeting, it will be seen that they failed. Never in the history of politics was more made of this pretended regard for laboring men, than in the last campeign in this State by the Democracy, and never were pledges so entirely disregarded as by the Legislature. ‘Franchises and oppressive laws were turned out day after day, while the industries of the State were utterly neglected, and to the designs of those pretenders the working men of San Francisco are beginning to open their eves. If this gross deception of politicians serves to open the eyes of working men all over the State, and to satisfy them how hollow are.-such . prefessions as are “made by these~ then; we™ shall expect to see in the future less of that prejudice which induces men to fall blindly into the hands of those who design to use them, and more independence in matters of election. Mus. MITCHELL was robbed of valuable furs, jewelry and clothing in Virginia city, on the 6th instant. THE rope-tying act was done by the Indians of the Upper Missouri long before either Jackson; Hartz, or the Da‘venports were born. A gentleman residing in Alton, who spent many years as an Indian.trader in the Yellowstone regions, states that the Assiniboine tribe were remarkably skillfal at this “spiritual manifestation.” The chief medicine man would allow himself to be stripped and tied at every joint,from toes to neck, with buffalo thongs, then rolled in a buffalo robe and tied a third time, until he was apparently as helpless asalog. He was then placed ina small tent, surrounded by spectators, and ap Iadian drum, flute and a gourd of water laid by his side. Within three minutes the sound of the drum and flute would be heard, and in five minutes the Indian would walk out un trammeled. : Surerrors AND INFERIORS.—Some of the colored people of San Francisco, when celebrating the Fifteenth Amendment the other day, respectfully asked the privilege of decorating with wreaths the statue of Lincoln, at the school house which bears his name. Marks, the Principal of the school, responded to their respectful request with a brutal refusal and opprobrious epithets. The applicants, it seems, were mistaken in } supposing that because Marks belonged to a race that had known persecution, he woud appreciate their joy over new found deliverance and. for the nonce waive his unquestionable © “superiority”() _. eNO ee : RatiLroaD Bitits.—The Appeal says: The Governor signed only the bills allowing Stockton and San Joaquin to vote on the subsidy to the Visalia and Stockton read, and the bill permitting San Francisco to vote on the subsidy to the Southern Pacific ; and*the bill $100,000 in bonds to the California Pacifi d vetoed or pockete] all the others. It is singular that the Gover nor.allowed these three bills to escape. ‘Travis M.

There is tound in California a native silkworm, inhabiting the wild lilac, the utility ot which, in an economic way has never yet been tested. The same, or a similar species of the worm, breeds upon the mulberry tree, growing wild in the mountainous districts of Japan. They attach. their cocoons to the trees on which they live, and from which the cocvons are gathered in considerable quantities, and-at very little cost, neither their rearing nor keeping being hatch without care, and feed on the leaves as they grow upon the trees. It seems probable that these native California worms might be domesticated and made profitable upon plantations. Being already acclimated they would certainly be likely to prove hardy: _ There is another worm, also, a native of Japan, which feeds on the leaf of the oak tree, and, some of which having lately been imported into this State, promise a valuable addition te our stock of workers. Like the other wild worm. above mentioned,they teed themselves and requite no looking after; the sik they make being remarkable for its strength and beauty. This worm, it is thought, would thrive and make good silk on the leaf of the California black oak. : — a tunnel says; in~ ‘ Hie examination. of M.

Last year, from #)maple grove of one hundred trees in Berkshire, Massachusetts,. five hundred. pounds of sugar wete made in’ five days“a pound from each tree every day. Vermont probably sends more maple spgar into the market than any othet one of the New England States. The “first run” of the . sap is considered the best, so that the maker of sugar taps his trees as soon as. he sees evidence that the sap is ascending. This amber, colored fluid, wher teduced to syrup, forms a most delicious . article a table use. It is, however, rarely to be obtained in the markety-ag the sugar is more profitable to thé matiufacturer.

That nature has well adapted it for this pur, is evident from the fact that the inhabitants of that country have always clad themselves with garments made almost exclusively from this textile; cotton not being in general use, and wool only recently having been at all employed for this purpose.
