Great Excitement at Lk>s Axcc!,es.—Los Am.elk*, October 24.—Officer Rildrain at tempted to arre.-t a Chinaman f«.r shooting another last night and was resisted. The officer railed Robert Thompson to assist him. The Ch inese thereupon commenced firing on i both sides of the street. Thompson was shot through the breast and Rildrain through the shoulder. The latter jumped on a h rse and escaped. A Spanish boy was shot through the leg. Thompson is dead. He was quite an inoffensive citizen. The excitement is in tense and the citizens are arming. The Chi nese quarters are in a state of siege. Al-1 ready a hundred men are armed with Henry I rifles and shot-guns. Ouo Chinaman has just been captured and bung by the citizens, who are firing at intervals, and regular vol leys are heard tiring into China hau«e3 ut random and from bouse tops. Two China men have been killed. The Sheriff and civil authorities have given up trying to restrain the nmb. The Chinese are well armed and mure blood will probably flow. 0 p. m. —Another Chinaman was hung at eight o'clock, and the third one has just been taken by the crowd to be hung, 9:!5 r. m. —Eight Chinamen have been hung, ami nine, more will he hung as soon as ropes can be found. The excitement is in tense. A general riot is pending. p. m.—Fifteen Chinamen have been hung. The authorities have succeeded in preventing further violence. Another China man was captured and put in jail. The crowd is dispersing. Aitrcrn Concession of an im cndiarv.— Chioauo, Oct. 2.?d. The Timex of this morn ing publishes a highly sensational account of the origin of the great lire, in what purports to be the confession of a member of the Socie ty of the Internationals, who alleges that it was their work that he set the first fire on Dekoven street, and about a dozen confeder ates assisted him in spreading it. lie dis closes that this was the third attempt to burn the city the first being the 30th of Septem ber, when the Burlington warehouse was burned. The second was on Saturday night preceding the great fires of Sunday, an ac count of which ho gives in detail. The writer further says that George Francis Train is a member of the Society, and that in a lecture in Harwell Hall the very night of the disas ter, came near betraying them, using the fol lowing language “This is the last public address that will be delivered within these walls. A terrible calamity is impending over the city of Chicago—more I cannot say —more I dare not utter.” The Times says “That Train made use of those words can bo abundantly attested, but it declines to offer any opinion ns to the authenticity of the story. That it will not bo believed, unless by the most credulous persons, is certain to nil who saw the tire, and the perfect hurri cane of wind which accompanied it, and which was quite sufficient to account for its terribly rapid spread.” Oakdaus.—This now town on the Stockton nnd Visalia railroad near the south hank of the Stanislaus river is growing rapidly. On ly a few days ago not a building occupied the town site, now quite a number of houses are already completed and many more are in course of construction. Hamblin, Hardin Shedlioh have finished a very large livery stable building. There are two stores one owned by Mr. Sydnor and the other by Mr. Tnohy. Mr. Blodgot is just opening a fine restaurant. Of saloons there are an unusual ly large number oven for a new California town. Twelve now buildings are in course of construction. A. V. Tnohy has contracted with Soborn Steele X Co. of this city for the erection of a large nnd commodious hotel. The building is two stories high, and 72 feet front by 35 toot depth and will ho completed in a short time as the contractors are pushing the work as fast as possible. The railroad depot buildings are also under way. This work is being done by Robinson Bros., also of this city. Tanks and other railroad neces sities are being constructed under the super vision of Superintendent Moulton. The com pany have reserved the grove where the Champions of the Red Cross held their exer cises a few days ago, for picnic purposes. The railroad will he completed and the cars running into Oakdale on or before the first day of November. As a shipping point it will always be a place of considerable iaipor tanco. Siockion Kcpuhlicati Forrest ani> Mountain Fires in New York. New York, October 25. A special from the Niagara Falls states that the woods in the Taramarack swamp, seven miles south east of Lookport, have been burning since Mondavi. A number of houses, barns, crops mid stock have been destroyed. It is feared the tire will spread to Batavia. The farmers are fleeing witb’thoir stock and furniture. The fire east of Albino is reported subdued, but another has broken out five miles north •'t that place. The loss since Sunday at Al bino is Ton houses, two flour mills and l,o(H) cords of wood have boon burned there. A special from Washington states that in formation is received that there are large fires in the woods, radiating in all directions from the Cumberland mountains, which are envel oped in smoke. Oilier mountain ranges in that section report frequent fires which often do immense damage. The bituminous coal fields are throated. A Test Question. —Readers will remem ber that a few weeks ago it was announced in the Santa Cruz papers that a Mrs. \an Valkenbnrg made application to the C 'unty Clerk (Brown) of that county to be put on the Great Register ns a voter by virtue of the privilege granted by the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments to the Federal Con stitution. She was refused such registrar n. and took her case b*-lV.re the Third Judicial l>i«trict Court, Judge S. B. McKee presiding, and the notion of the County Clerk was sus tained. The case has, therefore, been ap pealed to the Supreme Court, and yesterday, on motion of Creed Raymond, the case was placed on the calendar and submitted to tbe Court on briefs now on file. This may be regarded as a test question to determine the right of women in this State to be registered and vote ns do the sterner sex. The action of the Court will be looked for with a great deal of interest by all citizens. —SacramttUo Erpfrtcr. Overrate «f Coudij Orbt. The statement of the financial condition of Tuolumne county as directed by the Supervi sors to be sent tire State Controller shows the total debt of the county exclusive of interest to be $71,444 OS, the accrued and unpaid in terest will approximate to $40,000 making a total liability of about $lll,OOO. The total assessment roll for this year shows the valua tion of real estate for purposes of t axation to be $622,446, and personal property to be $551,121, making a t0ta10f51,173,567. This statement as compared with that of 1869, two years ago, shows that the large amount of taxes paid by our citizens Lave made a visi ble reduction of the county debt. In 1860 the county reached the end of its downgrade, the depression was heavier then than it has been since. The Assessment roll of that year was less than those of '7O or ’7l, or any that preceded it. With the roll footing sl,- 093,644, there was an indebtedness of $105,- 343 19 upon which interest bad accrued amounting to about $45,000 making a total debt of $150,000 Two years has reduced it $39,000. The increase of taxable property the past two years bus been slow much slow er than it is reasonable to expect for the fu ture. There are thousands of acres of land to which our people will in a short time ob tain title and with permanent improvements will soon add materially to the value of pro perty in the county, and ensure a low rate of taxation. The debt being reduced material ly each year with the present high rate of taxath n, many of our citizens think the rates should be leduoed. Is it not the better poli cy to continue the present taxation until the debt is reduced to such an amount that it cannot again become burthensouie. The peo ple of this county have suffered long enough from heavy indebtedness that paralyzed every industry and drove capital away from them. Let us keep reducing the debt until it shall not be the cause of keeping away the means that io so badly wanted to develop and open up our latent riches. Two years more of high taxes and economy on the part of our officers will place Old Tuolumne again on the list of prosperous counties. The change in the feelings and hopes of our business men for the past two years is apparent throughout the county. What has caused it can readily be seen, the reduction of the county debt with a prospect of light taxation, has given them new hopes and renewed the energies that were nearly destroyed during the time that everything was going from bad to worse until all that could do so fled the county. Lot our farmers and merchants and all our citizens who have passed through our depression,sub mit cheerfully to taxation for a short time until the county debt is cancelled or nearly so, then they will have secured low taxes for the future, which cannot help but prove ad vantageous to all classes in the county. Board of Supervisors. The Board met on Monday all the members present. Proposals for burying dead from Hospital and Jail were received, one from C. Burden who proposed to bury each body for $9, and one from P. A. Freund for $9 50. The contract was awarded to C. Burden for one year from date. The following proposals were received for building fence in front of County Jail. W. J. Beers $65; Gottfried Baer S4B 50; Roland Patty $55; M. Kublken SOS and M. Hedges S4O. The bid of M.

Terrible Railroad Accident Near Stock ton.—One Hvnpred Persons Reported Killed. —-On Thursday evening n despatch was received to the effect that the morning train from San Francisco on the Western Pa cific Railroad had run off the bridge over the j San Joaquin river killing one hundred per sons. A large number of residents of this place and vicinity are absent at Stockton and j San Francisco, the news when received ran like wild fire through the town, the anxiety |of those who had relatives and friends that might possibly be on the train was intense until a despatch from J. B. Douglass of Stockton was received stating that there was I no one from Sonora hurt. Fp to the time of going to press nothing is known here beyond that contained in the telegram announcing the terrible disaster. W. B.‘Norman of Calaveras, and T. M. Pawling of Amador, both Democrats, were elected Judges of their respective counties on the 18th inst. Tie Marin Journal says that the State Pris on is now filled to repletion, and that the question of enlargement must soou be taken into practical consideration. Nfw LrgiaUlirr Apporttonivral. We are indebted to the United States Mar shal of this State for a tabular statement of the population of each county, by color and nativity. It will be found in another c >l One of the duties of the coming legis lature will be to re-district the counties for Senators, Assemblymen an I Congressmen. This table will have to be the basis of such legislation. The result will he a large in crease of Senators and Assemblymen for San Francisco and a few other e 'unties, and a proportional decrease for the no unfain c un ties. The Constitution limits the members of the Assembly to SO ['potion 29, Article IV.. 1 and provides [Section 0. Article IV.,] that the number of Senators shall not be le*- than one-lhirJ nor more than one-half the number of Assemblymen. This is the present strength of each bouse, and it is not likely to be de creased ami can’t be increased. The last an portUnment was made on a basis of 3 X 0.000 as the total population of the State. That to tal divided by SO g ive the ratio of apportion ment for Assemblymen—l.7so being the fig ures. We find the ratio for the new appor tionment by dividing the total population as given in this table (5G0.223, or say even 5GO,000) by SO. It gives ns 79*00; that is one Assemblyman f r every 7,000 inhabi tants, regardless of color or nativity. By re ference to our table the read- r will at once see how the new apportionment will reduce the representation of many of the mountain counties, and increase that of San Francisco and others. Calaveras now has 3 Represen tative*, with a total population of but 8,895. She will be allowed but 1 Representative at the nest election. Santa Clara and Santa Crus have now but 4 Representatives togeth er. By the new apportionment they will form an Asseml ly district with 5 members, the two having verv nearly 35.000 population. Sacramento has now 5 members, with a total population 0f2G,830,. We shall therefore be allowed but 4 under tbe new apportionment; and San Joaquin, which has now but 2 members, with 21,050 population, will lie al lowed 3 under the now apportionment. Shas ta and Trinity have now 1 Assemblyman each. Hereafter they will have but 1 togeth er. Stanislaus will get a member to herself, while Mariposa and Merced will have but 1 together. Los Angeles will retain her 2 members. El Dorado and Nevada with 4 members each will he cut down to 1 for the first anil 3 for the last named. Placer and Nevada, now having 7 members, together will he cut down to 4. Sierra and Siskivon will each lose 1 member, and Tuolumne will lose 2. San Francisco and San Mateo, now having 13 Assemblymen and 5 Senators, will under the new apportionment be allowed 22 Assemblmen and 11 Senators! These eight counties San Francisco, San Mateo, Santa Clara, San Joaquin, Sacramento, Sonoma, Solano, and Alameda, with 291,101 popula tion, will have II Assemblymen and 20 Sen ators, and hold in their hands the political balance of power of the State. From these figures and remarks the reader will at once see how important ir is that San Francisco should do no act to strengthen the already dangerous power in the hands of the Cential Pacific Railway monopoly, by giving that city over to that company to have and to hold and to rule at its will. Possessed of the city they would not he long in defying the State and controlling its legislation after their own desires.— Some other stereotyped expr. s-ion, similar to the above, introduces to the public, nine tenths of the literary productions of the pres ent age. A*. re! iceiiiu iis becoming epidem ic. Every body, now-a-d »y«. must exhibit the exuberance of their imaginations, it) sto ries of 1 've, blood it murder. And those modern, literary luminaries, ate astonished that the public cannot appreciate the (blun dering) llat (pointless) plan, and insipid twaddle. The scenes must be laid in some romantic spot, the description of which, will occupy, at least on? chapter; and to read the descrip tion of one of those, is to read that of ten thousand others. The paths, the trees, the stumps hy the way side, the old chimney of the house, the moon beams reflected Irotn the river or perhaps from a goo-epond, magnified into a fairy-lake; the rose, the woodbine, the moaning pine, all have their appropriate place; the hooting of the owl, or the baying of the distant wa tab-dog is, perverted into the “Mu-io ot the birds’’ to add a charm to the story, or occupy as much paper ns pos-i --ble, before they get to the* shadow, of the sin gle idea, they thought they had, when com mencing their literary career. Next comes the actors or characters, in the drama, and another chapter is consumed in considering them, Rut not as Homer of old, or Shak spear would do it, by the acts and sayings of the characters themselves, that the more one reads, the more he wonders at, and admires the genius of the author: but their forms, fea tures, tempers, principles and motives, are described in tbe mechanical common-place language of the most ordinary intellect and acquirements. If a female is in the story, “her auburn ringlets fell gracefully around her snowy shoulders,“ or hung in wavy tresses around her swan-like reck —the shape cf her nose, the size of her ears, the articulation of her arms, bands and ancles, must be described at length. If a man is to be described, his sym metrical mustache stands prominent in the picture, his diamond ring receives a passing notice, his “duck of a foot, bespeak him eve ry inch a man.” And now those two characters, at the end of the twenty-first chapter, arc brought to gether, they both love at sight, converse by sighs and signs, an accident happens, which causes them to embrace, each reads, in the others eyes, that they were destined to be united for ever. At this critical moment tbe enraged parent, or a jealous rival enters, a light ensues, the fair Venus faints and you are at the end of the story. And this is genius this is education this is the literary status of the present age 1 And what does this desire to be scribbling come from It has been said that the generality of education engenders in the people the de sire to become authors —and as great talents are above the generality of mankind, as the abstruse dependencies, and relations of the laws of science, are dry subjects to the major ity of the people, it is not wonderful, that the many aspirants for literary fame, adopt the only plan, that promises any hope of success. It is not the generality of education, but tiie ability to write, with a sorrowful, want of knowledge, that j ronepts so many, to seek fame in long description of tbe ladies at ball*, parties, concerts, celebrations and fairs, notic ing particularly their toilet, their dresses, skirt.-, and sometimes even their boots and garters. It is this that prompt-’ frog stories, love stories, ghost stories and all the other stories without plan, system, order, knowl edge, diction or structure, with which the pub lic press and the public generally are annoy ed. “Moonlight Musings,” “Mysteries of Matrimony," “Love." “Seduction.* “Elope ment, “Domestic Quarrels.“ intermingled with murder and every other immorality and vice, expressed in equivocal language more Euggesiive of ignorance and indecency, than of anything else, should be frowned upon, by every lover of pure, elevated and elevating literature. /-acvrous. Convicted of Adclterv.— A Salt Lake dispatch of the 21st says The jury in the Hawkins case came in last night with a sealed verdict, which, on being opened this morning, was found to he “Guil ty/’ The Court room was crowded, and the ar.nnnnoement created much sens.- tion. Coun sel for the People moved the Court to take the defendant into custody, which motion was stoutly re-i-ted by defendant’s attorneys. The prosecution, however, were firm in their demand that the case should take the ordin ary course, and tiie United fvrte's Marshal accordingly was directed to hold Hawkins as a prisoner. Time was allowed to prepare motion for new trial and arrest of judgment. The penalty of the Utah statute for the crime of adultery is imprisonment for not exceed ing twenty years and not less than three years or by a fine of got over SI,OOO or by both fine and imprisonment at the discre tion of the Court. This is a test case, and virtually places all polygamists at the mercy of tiie first wife, who, under the Act, is the cnlv party who can institute proceedings against the husband. Tbe case was contest ed on both sides with great determination. The charge of Chief Justice McKean to the jurv last night is spoken of as being eminent ly able.

While our own city is intent on the great calamity of Chicago, events of a startling na ture are transpirirg in our midst that o«!l b r the greatest vigilance on the rmrt of etc secs and public officers. P«irin|t Saturday morn ing between three and tire o'clock, three fires were discovered in the southern portn n of the eity, in suoh e! -e nr ximitv and under cr i cumstanoes tl at lead to no other theory than 1 that com bin- d and villain. us incendiarism. At the h or first mentioned a lodger in the tenement h us f I>, Beckett, n Stevenson street, south of Bancroft's building. discover ed a shed in the rear of the premises on tire, j and immediately cave the alarm. Others in the h use ar se at Lis cries and one was self possessed enough to throw si v >rai pails and a i tub of water on the flames, effectually ex in gui-hing tfiom. Bernard and Hag gerty were in the vicinity, and while they were investigating the circumstances of the tire, a cry tr >m the direction of Sr. B ni'.iee restaurant called th.eir attenti n in that ditec tic-n. They immediately repaired tvi that place an 1 there disc vero 1 that th.e wo dshe 1 of Mrs Kensev's lodging hou»e, above the res fanrant, had been tired. The tlair.es were burning with vigor, but some water being near, they were extinguished. V* bile the above two fires were being quenched, a third alarm w s given, th s time bv a lodger in Mrs. I,van's h uses No. 17, Fourth street. The pers >n who dl»c n red this fire was a la dy on the ground floor. If had been built opposite her window, and ti e bright light streaming in had awakened her. She woke up her husband: he ran into the yard and al ter some hard work conquered the tire before it had gained a too powerful hold. Those fires occurring within so short a lime and within the same block—that 1 undo! by Third, Fourth. Market and Stevenson streets, set the officers and citizens on sirs investigat ing lead. The entrance to Beckett's yard was a passage way between hi* btrdiog and another one. and the fire was built in the woodshed and amongst the firewood and coal used by bis tenants. He states that no »she* are dep sited in the yard at any time, and also that no fires are ever 1 uilt in the v mini fy of the place burned. The side wails of the shed wore burned and charred for some distance, aud at several places the flames had burst through and caught on the outside. At Mrs. Kensey's the wood-shed was burned in the same manner and to the same ex«> nt as at Beckett's. bile passing through the hail vrnv a batch of burned paper was found, and an examination showed that it had been placed on the stairs with the purpose of firing the house. The paint on the stairway was slightly blistered but beyond this no damage was Ji ne. In the hall wa v leading to 7IT Market street, the office of the b aited States Medical Purveyor, a aimihir lun ch of paper was found, having been placed against the door, which was burned and blistered from the threshold to the knob. Each of the hall ways mentioned are always left open nt night end access to any one of them »s easy. At Mrs. Lyons’ she states that a barrel of shav ings stood on the side of the yard opposite where the fire was discovered, and it had been removed and the contents emptied on the flames.— Bulletin, Oct. 23.

Solano, Yuba, San daaquin, San Mateo, Santa Ortiz, N'nnn, Siskiyou, Contra Costa, Santa Clara and Las Angeles counties, which give Bohtuder a majority of nearly 12.990. The remaining counties in the September election gave 3.557 majority for the Demooratio ticket, and Tod majority for the Republican ticket. If the counties to be heard from give tiie same majorities as in the September election the majority of Bi.lan der in the State will he about 9,000. But should the gains in the remaining counties be relatively as great t.s in the counties heard frornyhe majority of B-dander will reach 11.- 000.

Trust What Time has Sauctioord. The maxim that the v.»iee of the people is the voice of the divinity, may in some eases, he open to doubt, hut the testimony of honest and enlightened witnesses extending through a series of years, and all to the same purport, is worthy of credence, admits of no question. Upon such testimony the reputation of IDs tetter’s Stomach Bijters as an antidote and cure for many ailments is based. Daring the twenty years that it has been before the world, innumerable preparations intended to compete with it, have gone up like rockets, and come down the extinguished sticks. Meanwhile the progress of that incompara ble tonic has been swift and steady—always upward and onward like the eagle’s flight, Ds introduction produced a revoluti n in therapeutics, and it proved to be one of those salutary revolutions that cannot go back wards. To-day Hostetler’s Bitters is one of the most popular remedies in Christendom, and commands a larger sale than any other medicinal preparation, domestic or imported, on this side of the Atlantic. As a cure for dyspepsia, bilious disorders, nervous affec tions, general debility, and as a preventive of epidemic fevers, it takes precedence of every other remedy. This fact should teach the ambitious country dealers who endeavor to foist their local abortions on the public in its stead, how futile their small attempts to cajole the community must necessarily be.
