the J • < >' treasury seems to
have been the business of almost every man
connected with the city ^over^men .or who
could get their hand into the peoples' strong
box: While San Francisco lias accumula-
ted a debt of over one million and a quarter
dollars, Sacramento owes only $375,000,
which was cliietly created by I lie const taction
of a levee seven m^les in length, and (he
squatter difficulties, Sacramento bonds are
worth 85 cents, while those ofSan Francisco
range from 38 to 45 cents. Our money lias
been squandered, while Sacramento lias been
more ibrtutiate in the selection of her pi'b»
lie servants. But in : ths lutnre a differ-
ent state of things will be manifest. The
estimated saving to the city treasury for the
current year, in toe single item of a reduc-
tion of officials' salaries, is §410,200—a sum
sufficient, if economically expended to pay
the annual expenses; of the State Govern-
ment.
The convention cal'ed at Monterey, to take

has not resulted any definite movement

now determined to call another convention at
Los Angeles, on the 10th of November, next,
to which every county in the State is reques-
ted [o send delegates. The subject has a*
wakened considorable interest, and the pro-
posed convention will no doubt be largely at-
tended. The politicians say 'aman! to this
division project. They see in it a fresh op-
portunity lor po'itical aggrandizement, for
spoils, pi ace ami power, and you need not
fie surprised to see two Californians knocking
