ON THE CENTRAL PACIFIC. Keports from the Blockade Are by No Means Encouraging. Sacramento, Jan. .TO. Reports from tbe scene of the snow block ade on the Central Pacific this morning are not encouraging. The fact that the barometer is falling ut the summit and high winds are sweeping over the snow-covered bills is regarded as discouraging. The wind which rose last night was fearful. There is an unprotected stretch of track between tunnel 13 and Trnckce, running ulotig the base of the bills. The hurricane swept over these hills arid tbe re sult was great suow slides, which completely covered tbe tracks. Further trouble is expected from slides, and tiiere is no telling when ami where the next may occur. MISS 1HSLAM) ARRIVES. She Reaches New York l'ive Days Behind Miss llislaml. New York, Jan. 30.

Max O KcilljWho has spent some time in Ireland says: "I have often been asked why I have not written a book on Ireland. The answer is this: I like to write on tbe faults of people, and I neve could find any in tbe Irishman. Queen Victoria is said to have con fided to Sir Thtodrc Martio her intention of issuing a further vol ume of extracts from ber journals, and to t.ave invited him to again act as her editor and literary advis er. Th9 Prince of Wales has been forced greatly to abate bis smoking for the gastritis with which he has been threatened was doubtless partly due to tbe excessive use of cigarettes and also of those immense cigars in which be usedto dclght, and which are as full flavored as they are large.

A ' showing of tbe number of tank ears some men would require for their absorbents during tbe same petiod would be interesting. A correspondent tbbs breaks out: "What's the use of pretending that Dr. Tal mage's sermons are really cabled from the. East! Everybody knows that be prepares all his sermous in advance, so that they may be sent by mail to tbe newspaper syndicate, which pays him for them. This has been his practice for years, and I don't know that he has ever made tbe slightest cencealmeot of it."

The last movements in this direction was the signing of a contract by tbe Government with Senor Salvador Malo lor the establishment ot a Pacific steamship lino between ports on tbe west coasts of the republic and Asia. The vessels will also have the privilege of touching at ports in California, and the company will be designated as the Asiatic Mexi can Maritime Company. Tbe steamships of tbe company will be obliged to make the mini mum of a round trip a year between Mexico and Asia, with tbe right to increase the number to what may be necessary for this business. The Government will have the privilege of frco conveyance of mails and an allowance from the ordinary rates for the conveyance of officials or troops, and tho company will have a monopoly for at least four vcars.

Within four month !rom signing the contract the conces sionaire is obliged to deposit $10,000 in bonds of the public debt as eviceuce of good faith in respect to the Asiatic line and $5000 in respect to the coast line. GOVERNMENT EMPLOYES. Uncle Sam Employs Ahomt Twenty TlieuHand People. A statistician in Washington has collected some interesting figures re gaidingthe employes of the govern mcnt. ' There are altogether about 200,000 persons engaged in drawiig government pay. Of these, 88,000 are employed in the various branches of the postal department; 0'2,000.are en gaged in the legislative, judical and miscellaneous divisions of the govern, ment: 35,000 are in the army and navy, and from 12,000 to 15,000 men and boys are employed iq work connected niih the navy and the construction of heavy guns. This multitude of patriots an. uually draws $105,000,000. Yet, not withstanding the magnitude of these figures, there is an appalling shortage of ellices compared with the number of office-seekers. The statistician savs: "Assuming that ont orthe 65.. 000.000 inhabitant of the United Slates at lcasst 20,000,000 are grown-up persons, men and women, there would seem to be only one officeholder in every circle of 157 grown persons, and hone officeholder hi every collection of ifiKi men, women and children." under such circumstances it Is difficult to sec how Mr. Harrison can help disap poiating many of the desetving ones. New York's Idiotic Handshake. The new fasbon of shaking bands is absurb, but it has been adopted and it will be some years before Bociety is emancipated, from its grotesque influence. The old fah ion of shaking hands wai good, enough, but uuiversal desire for a change has abolished it. Formally when two people' met their arms swung forward naturally, their bands met and the arms dropped in place. The mere act of shaking hands was as natural as of taking a seat or lifting a book. It is far different now. . The whole cexmony is instinct with deep thought and careful elaboration. A man and a woman meet and burst into a smile of welcome. Then the woman swings her right hand arm, which is perfectly rigid, staight out from the shoulder aud directly in front of her. When the band has reach ed the bight of ber chin she holds U there, with the thumb toward the lace au.1 the palm slightly mt war.!. The tnuu vhu has teen up 1 ill: t. . I . 1. tbe band a good deal as one migm grasp the rung of ia ladder, fie. . bows slightly, as tnougn intending, to press his hps to the lady's hand, and then lets go abruptly and drops bis hand to bis aide.

The best evidence ot its visit iu the early days is found in tbe Alta California of Thursday morning. March 7, 18o0 in .'act the editor himself was a victim, and here is what be wrote. The California grippe is prevail ing pretty extensively about these days, owing to the unsettled state of tbe wealbcr the conglomera tion of bail, rain and sunshine. Every second person one meets is "half dead with cold' r "used up with a cough,' and there is ns general a - bark beard throughout the community as if we lived in a village of prairie dogs. The lungs of the city are aliectco, and apothe caries wax fleshy and rich opu lent and corpulent. Misery likes company, and it is not therfore un pleasant to reflect that our city is at present a sort of general hospital, where asthmatics most do congre gate. Every friend bas a "sure cure" one recommends hot whisky punches ad. lib, another, "a stewed Quaker," one ''brandy and salt;" another Dr. Somebody's double-stilled, self working patent cougb mixture; another '"drops." to be taken ad infinitum; -another "'croton nil," not to be ta'cn inter nally; another a"medicated bath;'" another a wet sheet bath upon, the purest, hydropathic principles. ' We, having taken advice gratis, and swallowed mixtures, pills, drops, "infallible remedies,' "sure cures" and "certain, reliefs" until we have, been transformed into a perfect perambulating apothecary's ball, have taken 'hot baths abd medicated baths,' vapor baths, and 'everything but cold-water baths, and still wa cough, and. cou?. Our only consola;ien is in the .reflection that there are a lew more . kftof the some sorf, and that "it'a always so in new connnries. People We Have Not Met.
