LETTER FROM SACRAMENTO.
[special Correspondence ofthe Herald.]
Sacka.mi.nto, Oct. 11.
EDITOR HERALD: Yesterday, a lit
tle after 2 o'clock, I set foot in the cap
ital for the first time, completing the
journey in about 50 bonis. And now,
before I undertake to picture things
bent, let me just say a word as to the
intermediate journey. That the
TELEGRAPH STAOE LINK
In in every respect equal t<> the high
opinion tlie public has conceived of It,
i make no manner of question; hut
that staging, over the route from Los
Augeles to the railroad terminus, is a
most execrable mode of traveling, is
equally true. The afHictlou of the trav
eller is a species of compound torture,
which sets in at San Fernando and in
creases iv rigoruntil you have traveled
beyond the confines of I,os Angeles
county. This compound consists of,
Ist,innumerable "chuck-holes,'' which
dislocate every joint in your body at
one jerk, and Instantly replace every
bone by another Jerk, in another direc
tion; I'd, Insinuating dust, Which in
dustriously works its way into one's
eyes, nose, ears and mouth at one mo
ment tickling the optic nerve at the
back part of the eve. and tlie next mo
ment disputing the right of the atmos
pheric air to the exclusive dominion of
the chambers of the lungs. During this
conflict of forces, one is obliged to keep
up an incessant sneeze, which bids fair
to wear out tbe whole machinery of
the throat before relief can beobtained.
Next in order is the intolerable stench
which Is every where present for a dis
tance of some 60 miles from San Ker
naudo. This arises from the stagnant
water which Is distributed all along the
route at tlie bottoms of innumerable ra
vines. Add now, to these causes of dis
comfort,the warm days and cold nights,
sand storms, meals served at the sta
tions, etc., and you will Mud that the
Telegraph Stage Line, however effi
cient tlie agents may be, or how pon
derous Hie coaches, can offer nothing
but hardship and a Speedy passage to
Ihe traveller. At the railroad termi
nus, however, our trials came suddenly
to an end. At tl o'clock ou Wednesday
evening we were snugly in bed and
Hying toward l.athrop, where we
breakfasted next morning, before tak
ing the overland for Sacramento. And.
NOW FOR THK CAPITAL.
If it were not for the happier asso
ciations which cluster around tins
spot, coupled witb the departed spirit
oi '40, it would he ii dreary place in
deed. About tbe first impression a tour
ist would be likely to receive of Sac
ramento, as fie wliirls over its wooden
pavement and between brick walls
and plank sidewalks on either side, is
that it is a half finished tomb, within
whose gloomy vaults rests tbe departed
spirit of better days, Kacramento is,
however, like some of our modern
creeds hi this, that she lias her reviv
als periodically, to infuse new life into
la-r well-worn industries. Every ses
sion of the Supreme Court and every
session of the Legislature furnished the
clement of Innovation, but these con
vocations are no sooner disbanded than
tbecity relapses into its former life.
The shadow begins again to creep
stealthily along its streets, ever and
anon (dosing a door or obliterating a
sign, until finally another voice goes
forth from the Capitol. Then the
creeping terror disappears, carrying
witli him every vestige of ids sprout
ing devastation. Thus it is an equally
balanced contest between Slate patron
age ou one side and a lack of resources
on the other. With tbis patronage
decay hiiufpossibU, and witli the lack
of resources, advancement beyond the
present condition, would seem equally
impossible.
But Sacramento lias its points of In
terest even though its sidewalks are
seldom thronged. It has its State
Capitol, its Governor Booth, Its Gov
ernor Stanford, its Central Pacific
Railroad depot, etc. I visited
THK CAPITOL
Ibis forenoon, and enjoyed my own
surprise thut f should have heard so
little said iv praise of that magnificent
structure, its Immense proportions,
having a frontage of 320 feet; the gran
ite steps Kit feet wide and twenty high,
leading to the principal entrance; the
great rotunda, having a diameter of
72 feet, and tlie immense dome, are all
points upon which one can look for
hours with a growing interest.
Whatever may be the impression
created by tlie.Stanford organs iv this
end of tile State to the contrary, the
popular pulse beats to the touch of
Governor Booth. He Is their man,
their pet, their apostle. If popular
opinion, iniboiight and unulleeted,
could make him Senator, his election
were certain. There are two great levers
which sway tills people, and these are
tear and.confidence, or I might alniest
write it fear and love.
STAN KORl>
is the power applied at the acting end of
one of these, and Booth at the other, it
is unaccountable why men should fear
him, (Stanford], yet they do. Certain
it is that his thwarted will takes a new
form and becomes insatiable maligni
ty, and this it may be that has so
many terrors for so many people. His
course toward the newspapers, which
iiad so much independence as to criti
cise his career is too well-known; suf
fice It to say, that I was unable to ob
tain a copy either tlie Hull*tin.
(fall or Sacramento I 'ninn on the train.
The Chronicle, Record and a couple
other papers which never had any
principles to sell, were distributed
through tlie cars as thick as vultures
on a carcass, where they performed a
I-.a rt quite as loathsome, though far
less useful. Slandford's influence is
felt everywhere, His political under*
siruppers praise a most indulgent mus
ter; bis admirers are envious of v man
Los Angeles Daily Herald.
who they claim ownso majority of tlie
will ofthe state, and Ids opponent only
struggle to overthrow his dangerous
and corrupting power. There is but lit -
He said of
THK JUDICIAL KLKCTION.
The People's candidate has a power
ful advocate in the t'nion, and the
Union pretty generally reflects the
opinion of the majority on all public
questions. This masterly inaction
leads me to think that here an elec
tion is not so much a matter of bar
gain and sale as it is "down our way,"
but thnt they will vote for the best
man if tbey Can discover him. Ido
not mean that tlie marketable element
does not exist to some extent here as
well as there, for you might as well
try to extract the bones out of a live
herring as to eliminate dishonesty
from California politics; but what I
wish to make plain is that here at the
capital there is too much vitality in
the laws to sutler a voter to receive the
value of his vote iv dollars or cents
(as he estimates it) at the counter of a
bank.
All the magnates of the government
are out ofthe city—some in San Fran
cisco and others elsewhere. None of
tbe Judges of the Supreme Court have
yet arrived, but all are expected to be
in attendance on Monday—the first
day of tlie October term. P. W. !>.
Letter from Wilmington.
Wilmington, Oct. 14th is:."..
EDITOR llkkai.ii:—l send a few
items for the information of your
readers. The future of Wilmington
brightens. In a business point of
view she is now seeing her worst days,
and any change at all must be for the
better. Commerce must always keep
a population here equal to the present,
al least. All the imports and exports
of the country are obliged to pass
through this harbor, nor will a time
arrive when this will not be the case,
in regard to heavy freights. This fuel
alone must always keep in Wilming
ton a considerable populatiou. As the
population of the country increases,
ho the commerce of this harbor must
increase, and to tlie same extent Wil
mington must grow - . Many predict a
large population iv the future. The
completion of tlie breakwater and the
dredging of the bar, iv tlie estimation
of the engineers, will make this har
bor deep enough for ordinary coast
steamers, rendering lighters unneces
sary, and cheapening tlie cost of freight
and passage.
Only a small force of men will be
employed on tlie breakwater during
the winter, but When Spring comes
the bar will be dredged and the entire
work pushed on to completion.
Wilmington has two churches, one
fiublic school and two private ones.
lon. B. D. Wilson has become a per
manent resident of our town, and his
value is appreciated by all our citi
zens. The Southern Methodists are
indebted to his generosity for the
handsome donation of two large build
ings at Drum Barracks, and tell acres
of land, for educational purposes.
These buildings are spacious, well fin
ished, aud will furnish ample room
for a large number of hoarding schol
ars. It is said that Bishop Daggett
will be here in a few days, and then a
council will be held to devise ways
and means to raise an endowment for
the new college. "C."

matter suited to the Hume circle.
The IIKKAI.n will be au Independent Demo

While Ihe Hkhai.ii will treat Slavery lis v
