and were momentarily waiting to heat j
that the levees had given away and
that Sacramento and Maiy.svi!le had
been washed from off the face of the
earth, the wires brought the news that
the water was falling, and we all de
serted the bulletiM hoaidi and went
hum" in disgust. This thin.' will
bo remembered against the cities of the
plain when the day of reckoning comes.
We are in favru of repealing tbe debt is
act down here since these events.
.Speaking of the debris act, by the way,
renainds us that the people of San Fran
cisco are daily growing mere indignant
on account of the attitude of their rep
resentatives in the legislature on this
question, and unless they soon experi
ence what Moody would term a ''change
of heart," they will find themselves
shorn of their little brief authority and
retired to back seats when the next oc
casion comes around for tho people to
speak. "Their action is criminal," said
a good citizen to me this morning, "and
the f ffort to saddle this thing on tho
State for two years longer amounts to
highway robbery." And this seems to
be the general sentiment.
The eyes of tho community aro turn
ed at present upon the proceedings in
Department No. 11 of the Superior
Court, where the trial of young Kal
loch, for the murder of Charles De
Young, is proceeding. The defense is
resorting to all the subtleties and tech
nicrlities of the law to gain time and
advantage. Twenty days alono have
have been consumed in obtaining a
jury. It seems incredible tint so much
time should have been omsumed to se
lect twelve men who have no opinion
of their own or know nothing about
the cise. The whole proceeding is a
commentary on the jury system and
Rhould awaken all justice loving citizens
to the necessity of its modification. No
one believes, under tho ciicumstances,
that Kalloch will be convicted. If this
jury convicts or fails to agree he will
obtain a new trial, and the second jury,
whioh must of necessity be composed of
worse material than tho first, will ac-
quit him. I will not fail to keof you
informed from time to time of any new
developments in this caao.
There has been much impatetionce on
the part of the people during tho past
few weeks owing to the irregularity of
the incoming mails, occasioned by the
storms. On last Saturday an overland
mail of three days accumulation arrival
af
in the city aud the seem in aud about
the postotlice for a few hoars reminded
old settlers of steamor days before the
completion of the railroad. Over a
thousand sacks ol delayed mail matter
were received in the aftoruoon and it
required, in addition to the regular mail
wagons, five large drays to remove it
from the wharf to the postoflice. So
perfect is tho system, however, which
has been instituted iu the San Francis
co ollice, that this iiumenae mail was
assorted and ready for distribution
withiu one hour after its arrival. Wo
are looking anxiously forward to the
completion of the Southern trans conti
nental road in the houe that our mails
a
may teach us with greater regulaiity
and dispatch.

WaOMMOI, l 0 ., Feb 15, 1881.
MJtior Drmocntt :
It is now pielty conclusively demon
strated that subsidies do not thrive in a
1 emocraiic Congress. All the sch vines
brought forward in the Isst six years
have utterly failed, and the last one to
0OM to grief is the Brazilian Mail en
terprise of Mr. John llosch. For three
years there has been a strong lobby at
work here iu the interest of this
scheme, aud its advocates conlidentlj
exjtected to succeed this winter ; but
the Senate has just pressed the thing
out of all shape by vigorously aitting
down on it. There was no arty jnili
tics in it, for some memlfers of both
parties were for the measure ; but the
majority of adverse vole came from
the Democratic side. Mr. Blaine has
boOB the limning advocate ami utU'rne)
fur Mr. Koach. ami the I ) im. i alio
ne sj n-r here hacked him, for a fori
sideration.it is understood ; b.il it lakes

Reuecsjea tail vat that they oiht
that they oiifght to
stultify themsilves by voting for
schetms whish the patty in ('ongreta
and iu nil its platforms has consistently
COOdemncd. The day ol siibaidies has
a--ed. The eXM-rience of the I'nited
States iu giatiting them has not been
I i 1 a
heaid from him, ami it is generally le
lieved that his head will be one of the
first to drop into the executioner's bas
ket after the new administration is in
auguratod. The Pension Bill, as it
passed the Senate, is now in the House
. ,
awaitiug ooncurreuoe in the nmeiid
ments. it appropriates 6.VH2,30G.Gs,
being tie: largest pension appropriation
bill ever perfected cither by this gov
ernment or by any other, and is more
than alt the pension appropriations of
all the governments on earth combined.
This is not entirely owing to tbe ar
rears of pensions law, although before
that was enacted the pension expendi
tures were a....uallv less than one half
tbe amount now about to be appropri
ated. The wholesale tensioning of the
survivors of the Wat of 1K12 has
helped to swell the aggregate. There
are now on the rolls over thirty-live
thousand widows and survivors of that
war. It is remarked at the Pension
OfKee that no one engaged in that war
seems to have died in the last half cen
tury. The effect of this immense
swelling of the pension roll is to post
pone indefinitely the pensioning of the
survivors of the Mexican War. A con
vention of the survivors is to meet at
Louisville on the 231, etui a strong
stem tii Aiii bo sent to Congress ask
ing that the claims of the Mexican sol
diers he considered. Tbe justness of
these claims is acknowledged, bnt there
is a general indisposition to further in
crease the pension budget. It is esti
mated that there are only eight thous
and survivors of that war, but from
the way survivors of the war of 1812
have turned up there roust be about
one hundred thousand.
The removal by death of Fernando
Wood from the Ways and Means Com
mittee has raised the question whether
that committee would not now be in
favor of tariff reform. But even if
there were time to take up the subject,
the committee would still be opposed
to it. Speaker Randall is not a tariff
reformer by any means, and when he
appointed that committee ho left the
free-traders and reformers a long way
in the rear. The fact that one or two
votes have been elose signifies nothing.
A member of the eomm.ittee who, sdtb
others, would be glad to have Mr.
Kurd's resolution reported favorably,
told me to-day that they were still in a
hopeless minority.

her like a cruel blow, for in her be
wilderment Hie took it for granted
that tho child's mother Wli living.
Jf she hud deceived her-elf by any
foolish notion that lie was in love
with her, this was a just punishment
she thought. Hteven Adams 07M a
noble and honorable men, wh was
srry for her poor, plain life ; and
the little attention which tie had of
fered to her and to Ida OBteOg from
the desire of a kind heart to brighten
their dull routine.
'J think you Meat love children,"
he was saying ; "and Charlie h i
dear little fellow."
Yes,I am very fond of children,"
murmured poor Margaret, with that
sot, unnatural smile which Bte?en
Adams noticed with a feeling of
appointment; for he had particularly
admired Margaret's frank and unaf
fected manners, bat now her word
seemed to belie her real feelings.
However, no furl her then t ion of
the subject was made. Having
reached Margaret's home, Mr. Ad
am's catered and filled a fruit dish
with the juiay peers for Ida, aud
bidding tho slaters a cheery g30d
night, he went on.
Two days later, n Margaret w -replacing
the fragments of her lunch
eon in the basket, Mr. Adams camu
down the long room with a little boy
ia a plaid frock and sailor hut ; a
handsome lltllo fellow, with brown
eyes like his father's, aud long, fair
curls. Margaret had been rather shy
af Mr. Adams for the past two days,
but she could not resist tho child's
sweetly imperious antRo an hi
fell upon her.
Who is you V" queried Master
Charlie, running to her side, and
leaning against her knees.
"This is papa's friend, Charlie,"
said Steven Adams, smiling at the
wave of calor in Margaret's face.
And then lie added, "May Charlio
stay with yeu for a few minutes? I
want to look at a defective shaft iu
the lower room, and 1 dre not let
the bey run loose among all this ma
chinery."
Margaret signified her pleasure at
Chat lie's company, and smiled into
the little fellow's faee when be stood
ou his toes to kiss her.
Charlie loves you, he said, "Char
ley loves your pretty dark eyes "
Mr. Adams looked at Margaret
With a good deal of amusement.
Margaret laughed to cover her con
fusion, J, and Mr. Adams echoed the
laugh as he turned away.
When the ane o'clock whistles
sounded theoperatives began to come '

A London w riter says Lord r 'aeon field's
fondness for rings and flashy jewelry is
not more strongly reflected In the pages
of "Eneymion" than his love of eating In
"Lothalr," and the fact is recalled that
his hotel bill at lierlhi was fG.OOO. "In
'Lothair' " he says, "there is the same
display of flashy jewelry, the same blaze
of nnrealit) , somewhat solL'ified by con
stant eating. Tho chief personnge, who
moved about as if too good for this world,
aro always ready for a good luncheon or
a substantial dinner. Though unreal
enough in most respects, they are solid
enough in their appetites."
