She revolves in her orbit once in 29^ days, at a distance of 240,000 miles from the Earth. The Asteroids number 72, of which 10 were discovered in 1861. Leverrier estimates that their aggregate mass does not exceed one- third of that of the Earth, Apparent Time, is time reckoned by the revolutions of the Sun from the meridian to the meridian again. These intervals being unequal, of course the apparent solar days are unequal to each other. ■ ■ • Mean Time, is time reckoned by the average length of all the solar days throughout the year. This is the period which consti- tutes the civil day of 24 hours. . I* ■ 10 HAND BOOK ALMANAC. TIME TABLE. Time (jf day at various places when it is 12 o'cloclt (noon) at San Francisco. ^ > A. M.

TIDES OF THE PACIFIC COAST. 11 i TIDES OF THE PACIFIC COAST. On the Pacific coast, there is, as a general rule, one large and one small tide during each day; the height of two successive high-waters occurring one a. m., the other p. m. of the same twenty-four hours, and the intervals from the next preceding transit of the moon are very different. The inequalities depend upon the moon's declination ; they disappear near the time of the moon's declination, being nothing, and are greatest about the time of its being greatest. The inequalities for low water are not the same as for high, though they disappear and have the • greatest value at nearly the same times. In Piiget Sound, the inequalities for the interval of high water and for the height of low water follow this rule, but those for the interval of low water and height of high water disappear about one day before the moon's declination is greatest, and are greatest about four or five days before the greatest declination. When the moon's dechnation is north, the highest of the two tides of the twenty-four hours occurs at San Francisco about eleven and one-half hours after the moon's southing (transit), and when the declination is south, the lowest of the two high tides occurs about that interval. The lowest of the two low waters of the day is the one which follows next the highest high water. To obtain the times of high or low water for Monterey, South Farallone, Mare Island, Benicia, Ravenswood, and Bodega, Ijnd the time for San Francisco, then subtract 1 h. 44 m. for Monterei/, 1 h. 29 m. for the South Farallone, and 49 m. for Bodega ; and add 84 m. for Mare Island, 1 h. 4 m. for Benicia, and 80 m, for Ravenswood. For Humboldt Bay, Port Orford and Neeah Bay, find the tiine for Astoria, then subtract 40 m. for Humboldt Bay, 1 h, 16 m, fQp Port Orford, and 9 m, for Neeah Bay. For Steilacoom and Semiahmoo Bay, find the time for Port Townsend, and add to it 5*7 m. for Steilacoom, and 1 hour for Semiahmoo. The approximation will only be a rough one for Steilacoom. 12 HAND-BOOK ALMANAC. i ^ e o s I— > ^ u -f? pq ^ •?

The name of the body corporate is the Pacific Union Railroad Company .^ and consists of more than 150 commissioners. The amount of capital stock is fixed at $100,000,000, in 100,000 shares of $1,000 each. At the convention held at Chicago, Sept. 2, 1862, the Board of Commissioners elected the Hon. William B. Ogden, of Illinois, President of the Company ; Henry V. Poor, of the Bailroad Journal^ Secretary, and Thomas W. Olcott, of Albany, Treasurer. It was ordered that books of subscription to the stock should be opened on the first Wednesday in November, in the principal Eastein cities, and in San Francisco, Portland, Carson City, and Great Salt Lake City. Mining Excitements. — The year 1862 was prolific in gold-min- ing excitements. In British Columbia, a small extent of country at the head waters of the Eraser had been prospected during the season of 1861, with successful results in individual instances. The same was true in regard to a limited section of country drained by the eastern branches of Snake River, in AVashington Territory, some 5U0 miles from the ocean. The local newspaper press, the steamship companies, and the excitable tendencies of our people, combined to create a great "rush" to both localities in 1862. Large numbers of Canadians, direct from the east, joined our own CALIFORNIA. 85 Est.

In another direc- tion the Colorado gold mines, near the Colorado River, in the western part of Arizona, have attracted considerable attention, and are believed to be both rich and extensive. While the northern mines can be worked but half the year on account of deep snows and low temperature, the Colorado mines are subject to the oppo- site extremes of excessive heat and prolonged drought. That these three gold fields, particularly that of the Columbia Basin, will prove an important contribution to the wealth and re- sources of the Pacific States, cannot be doubted. During the nine months preceding Oct. 15, 1862, there had been shipped from British Columbia about $1,200,000, and from the Washington and Oregon mines $1,800,000; all exclusive of what was shipped through private channels. The yield of the Washoe Silver Region during the same period was about $4,000,000. The P. M. S. S. Co.'s steamer Golden Gate, plying between San Francisco and Panama, left the former port on the 21st of July, 1862, with 388 passengers and crew, and was burned to the water's edge on Sunday, July 27th, fifteen miles northwest of Manzanillo, and one hundred and seventj'-six lives were lost. Cause : criminal negligence of the company to furnish adequate protection against accidents at sea. In October, 186? an opposition line to the Atlantic via the Nic- aragua Isthmus Transit was established. The Moses Taylor, which made the first trip, sailed from San Francisco on the 21st. CALIFORNIA. The Great Floods of 1861-62 were the most overwhelming and disactrous that have visited this state since its occupation by Americans. The first flood submerged the Sacramento Valley about the 10th of December, the water rising higher than in either 86 HAND-BOOK ALMAMAO. of the memorable floods of 1849 and 1852. For six weeks there- after an unusual amount of rain descended ; and during that time the deluge but partially subsided, the streams still carried tor- rents, and the low lands were overflow id. On the 24th of January the second flood attained its greatest height, and the Sacramento and San Joaquin Valleys were transformed into a broad inland sea, stretclung from the foot-hills of the Sierras to the Coast Range, and somewhat similar in extent and shape to Lake Michigan. The raging mountain torrents swept away bridges, fences, houses, mills, and the most durable improvements in their reach ; not un- frequently ploughing new channels through the country, and de- positing the debris of sand and rock upon large sections of culti- vated land. But the flood was not attended with unmixed evil. The streams that had been choked by tailings for yr'ars, were suddenly cleared of their obstructions, and extensive river-beds were again opened to the enterprise of the miner. The work of rebuilding bridges and mills, and of repairing other damages, called into profitable employment a large number of persons ; and trade and commerce and actual improvement suffered less interruption than might nat- urally have been expected, after so great a blow to our prosperity : and such are the wonderful energies and resources of our pei le, that in a few months the ravages of the flood had disappeared, and losses estimated at millions had been retrieved. Constitutional Amendments, — The amendments to the Consti- tution proposed by the members of the twelfth session of the Legislature, and adopted by the thirteenth session, were ratified by the people at the last general election. The effects of the amend- ments upon the three branches of the State Government are noted in the executive, legislative, and judicial departments. L GOVERNORS OF CALIFORNIA.

The northeastern portion of this county has been the theatre of very serious Indian depredations during the past year. So early as the 2d of April, the citizens of Areata held a meeting " to con- sider the existing relations with the Indians," at which a series of resolutions were adopted, among which was the following : Besolved, That our community has been laid waste entirely ; all of the dwellings have been burnt to the east of the Hoopa trail, "except one now occupied by the troops," for a distance of near 50 miles east and south; the cattle and other property destroyed to a great extent; our citizens have been murdered by the score ; the women and little children have been driven to our village and are nearly destitute. For more than one year have citizens been prevented from going to the country except at great risk of their lives. Improvement of any Hnd is now out of the question, and we have been mor- tified by seeing our population steadily take their departure for other parts of the country affording more security. - Although more efficient measures were soon after adopted, the Indians continued to be the terror of the community for several months. Colonel Lippitt, the commander of the Humboldt military ! ill i 1* I ri 108 HAND-BOOK ALMANAC. district, established new posts, and arranged his meagre forces to the best advantage ; but the wily foe, well armed, and in bands of from 40 to 200, lurked in inaccessible or unknown retreats, or if surprised by the vigilance of the soldiers, retired to others equally secret and difficult of access, and thus from their intimate knowl- edge of the topography of this wild region, they existed almost with impunity in the vicinity of United States troops. It would require more space than we desire to give, to mention even the notable instances of their daring and depredations. Courts. .1 .1 District Court. — Eighth Judicial District, Hon. William R.

KLAMATH COUNTY. The floods of 1861-62 did great damage in this county. The rivers, flowing through channels at the bottom of narrow, deep canons, had no chance to spread, and rose proportionately high ; in one place (at the mouth of the Salmon River) the Klamath rose over 100 feet above its ordinary level, sweeping away a wire sus- pension bridge, 90 feet high. Immense land slides took place, making precipices of the steep mountain slopes, and temporarily damming the rivers, when the accumulated waters suddenly broke forth, carrying every thing before them. Some of the gulches were cleared of mills, flumes, dams, houses, and improvements of KLAMATH COUNTY. 161 every character, even to the Uttle patches of soil that were culti- vated. New developments were made, however, through the agency of the flood ; the land slides disclosed hitherto hidden treasures, and the torrents sluiced out the yielding mountain sides depositing new beds of auriferous sand on the bars below, Clinton Woodford, Esq., Inspector of the port of Trinidad, and formerly an attorney at Orleans Bar, was shot by some hand un- known on the 2d of July. The homicide was supposed to have resulted from a previous controversy with Mr. Marx, of Nordheimer and Marx. Courts. ^ District Court. — Eighth Judicial District, Hon. William R. Turner, Judge.

A water-spout occurred on the 16th of August, in San Francis- quito Canon, about 00 miles north of Los Angeles, which is thus described : " About 1 p. M, of that day, a heavy rain cloud which had been hovering over the canon, burst with a noise like thunder, discharg- ing a huge volume of water, instantly filling up the canon with a roaring stream, carrying every thing along in its resistless course. A party from Kern River, on their way to Los Angeles, were in the canon, of which party one, Mrs. C. J. Chevalier, was drowned. The water in the canon when the party entered it, was less than three inches, and when the torrent came, it was over fifteen feet deep. It was past daylight the next morning ere the torrent sub- sided." Several causes have quickened Los Angeles into new life. It is the supply depot for the military forces that have been accumu- lating in the southern part of the state. The goods destined for the rapidly developing silver region of Coro, and for the new gold mines of Colorado River, find their most convenient route through Los Angeles. Colonel E. J. C. Kewen, member of Assembly from this county, was arrested on a charge of treason, October Yth, 1862, and con- veyed, under military escort, to Fort Alcatraz. Courts.

The floods Avere very disastrous on the Merced River and its tributaries. In the neighborhood of Fremont's mills it rose ten feet higher than was ever before known. About tlie heads of the Chowchilla tremendous land-slides occurred. One is said to ha\e been of the area of forty acres, to the depth, in places, of one hun- dred feet, bearing with it masses of trees six and eight feet in diameter. A fire at Hornitos, on the 20th of August, destroyed about $30,000 worth of property. Veins of silver. Relieved to be both rich and extensive, were discovered six miles south of Mariposa, in September, and created a local excitement. L. A.

An extraordinary flood occurred in Mono County, on the 11th of January, occasioned by a rain of three days duration falling on a heavy body of snow. Great damage was sustained at Aurora, which lies at the convergence of several gulches. The streets were converted into rivers, whose frenzied currents left destruction in their wake. The stone buildings were undermined and fell with crash after crash, and the adobe buildings were dissolved into heaps of mud. The disaster was attended with loss of life on Boda Creek. The Esmeralda Star newspaper was established May 10, 1802. The mineral wealth of Esmeralda has been rapidly developed during the year. Several ledges, which had held but a nominal price in market, rose to a high figure after quartz mills were fairly in operation. In the month of August, the Wide West ledge ap- preciated from $200 to §; 1,000. , Courts. District Court. — Sixteenth Judicial District, Hon. Wm. H.

During its prevalence trees were uprooted, houses blown down, and valuable flumes destroyed. The great flood of 1861-2 wrought considerable damage to the quartz mining interests of Grass Valley. The mines were filled with water, and the mills ceased to run, throwing out of employ- ment 1,500 miners. It was estimated that, while the storm con- tinued, the daily loss accruing to Grass Valley amounted to $10,000. Notwithstanding the great losses occasioned by the storm, the property valuation of the county, for the year ending June 30th, 1862, was half a million more than for the previous year — an evi- dence of the solid prosperity of the county. A new wire suspension bridge has been constructed across Deer Creek, at Nevada City, at a cost of $12,000. It is said to be the largest one in the state. The cables are 503 feet long, and the surface of the suspended roadway is 4,700 square feet. Courts. District Court, — Fourteenth Judicial District, Hon. Thomas B.

The great floods of 1861-62 were peculiarly disastrous to the capital of the State. The swollen current of the American River burst through the levees of Sacramento City, and submerged the whole town to a depth of from two to eighteen feet. The water not only entered the lower stories of all the dwellings, but in many cases invaded the second, and in the southern part of the city small houses were lifted from their foundations, and overturned or floated off by the tide. The business streets were transformed into Vene- tian canals, and row-beat? and sailing craft were substituted for land vehicles. At one time the steamer Gem, attempting to as- cend the American River, was drawn through the crevasse, and lodged in an orchard one hundred rods from the river. It is im- possible to estimate with precision the damage which the city sustained through the flood. It probably did not fall short of $2,000,000. But the city has the recuperative power to recover from the blow. She has already built a substantial bulkhead, impervious to future floods, and she will continue to be the leading commercial city of the interior. ' Two educational conventions, three political conventions, and the State Agricultural Fair were held at Sacramento in the year 1862. , , . Courts. , , District Court. — Sixth Judicial District, Hon.

A tragic affair occurred on the 24th of January, 1862, resulting in the death of Deputy Sheriff David Campbell and one Isaac 248 IIAND-UOOK ALMANAC. Bakor, whom he was attempting; to arrest. Campbell shot Baker and mortally wounded him. At the same moment a son of Baker shot Campbell, killinf^ him Instantly. The unsettled condition of land titles in Sonoma County contin- ues to cause trouble, litigation, and resistance to law. The settlers on the Kaneho Sotoyome, in the Russian River Valley, made au armed resistance to the execution of wi-its of restitution, in Juno. On the 17th of July, Sheriff Bowles w(!nt to the Ranch with a posse of 225 men to serve a writ against Cornelius Bice, one of the occupant;-, and was met by a body of sixty armed men. Ilia own men being unarmed, he was unal)le to execute his con)mission. In September, the (tovernor having ordered out the militia, two companies proceeded froui Petuluma to the Ranch, and on the 25th ejected the occupants ; but no sooner had the militia left than the settlers returned to the Ranch. At the following session of the District (\)urt, proceedings were instituted against the settlers, effectually dispossessing them of the land. The Sonoma County Agricultural and Mechanical Fair was held in conjunction with Napa County, at Sonoma, commencing October lih, 1862. Courts. District Court. — Seventh Judicial District, Hon. E. W.

The flood in this county was attended with loss of life and great destruction of property along the course of the Stanislaus River. About one-half of the town of Knight's Ferry, an enterprising place in the foot-hills, was literally swept away by the impetuous current of the swollen stream. The river rose twelve feet higher at this place than the highest previous water-mark, and the current was sufficiently strong to propel mill-stones, iron safes, and huge boul- ders. The bridge, flour mills, and business houses, with their con- tents, on the lower side of Main street, were carried away. But with the characteristic spirit of California towns, the energetic in- habitants unmediately began to repair their losses, scarcely wait- ing for the floods to abate, and now the place presents a better appearance than before.

The last Legislature granted a franchise for an important wagon road connecting Red Bluff, via Noble's Pass and Honey Lake, with the Humboldt mines of Nevada Territory. The road has been improved and much travelled during the past season. L. H. Sanborn, Esq., a prominent member of the county bar at Red Bluflf; died June 23, 1862. There are two Indian reservations in this county — the Home Cult, well conducted and successful, and the Nome Lackee, averred to be in a " miserable condition." From the latter, bands of In- dians have several times escaped and made incursions upon the neighboring ranches. The first important raid of this character was made by thirty partially-armed Indians on the 30th of April. The whites organized at once, pursued, and surprised them May 4th, when a fight occurred in which seventeen Indians and two whites were killed. Courts.

The Weaverville Journal of December 14, 1861, referring to the flood in Trinity River, which was then at its height, says it was " the greatest ever known, even by the Indians, for half a century. The river, in places where it Avas confined, rose seventy feet above water mark ; in other places where it was wide, the banks caved, and cultivated ranches were carried away. Every mining improvement on the river for one hundred miles has been destroyed, and more than one-half the bar aud river miners are ruined." The loss was estimated at $150,000. But, as has been shown in Klamath County, the flood compen- sated for private losses by benefiting the public at large. The Jotimal^ above quoted, says, at a later date : " The immense body of water rushing down the stream has washed heavy deposits of earth off many flats and bars, leaving nothing for the miner to do but to wash the pay dirt. In some instances, the entire bed of the stream has been changed and the old channel is nearly dry, saving to the miner much expense in damming and fluming." A heavy rain storm occurred on the 12th of June at Weaverville. Courts. District Court. — Ninth Judicial District, Hon. William P.

A small portion of the city of Marysville was inundated by the first rise of Decem- ber, ^861, and several buildings undermined. Portions of culti- vated land along the courses of the streams were washed away. Hundreds of acres of the flats of Bear River were covered with sand and tailings brought down by the mountain torrents, and rendered unfit for agricultural purposes. The wool-growers of the county were said to be heavy losers. Upon the accession of Horace Beach to the office of County Col- lector, it was discovered that his predecessor, John S. Love, was a defaulter to the extent of from $20,000 to $30,000. Courts. District Court. — Tenth Judicial District, Hon. Simeon M.

OREGOK A great flood deluged the Willamette Valley in December, 1861. A heavy fall of rain, combined with the melting snows of the cas- cades, swelled the mountain brooks to destructive torrents, and raised the Willamette River above its banks, inundating extensive tracts of cultivated land in the valley, and undermining the towns and villages along its course. The flood attained its greatest height on the 5th of December, at which time it is said to have been much greater in extent than any that has preceded it since !jangton's Ex- ille, Popula- msher; August iter, Thomas > miles north- m^ ''*>'^^"*^*^^^"^np!>iiiipp^P""MaiHHiP 11 ; 45 miles ind. igents Lang- ' from Marys- don; TolmCos- lember, 1861. rs of the cas- torrents, and ing extensive ing the towns its greatest 5 said to have ;eded it since GOVKIUNOUS OF OUKGON. m the State was occupied by white men. At Oregon City, w^.ich suffered more than any other point, the loss was estimated at UYO,()00. The Umpciua River also overflowed its banks, aini flooded the adjacent country ; but the valley being less thickly settled, the destruction of property was limited. The unusual fall of snow east of the Cascades, during the winter of 1861-'62, gave rise to a June flood in the lower Columbia, of unprecedented height. The Dalles was inundated, and the Willa- mette was backed up so that the river stood at Portland, on the 14th of June, twenty-eight feet above low-water mark, completely deluging the lower part of the city. Important discoveries of gold, in placers and quartz, have been -made In eastern Oregon and Washington. The " rush" of 30,000 adventurers to the new mining field has created a home market for the productions of this State. Much of the overland emigration was diverted to Oregon, and will permanantly occupy the rich farming land of Willamette Valley. Thus a great impetus haa been g, en to the development of the mineral and agricultural wealth of the State ; and notwithstanding the overwhelming losses by flood, it has, during the past year, been blessed with unwonted prosperity. The increase of populat= i in the northeastern part has made new municipal organizatiout necessary, and two new counties, Baker and Umatilla, have been erected — the former em]> 'acing the valleys of Grande Rondc, Powder and Burnt rivers, western afflu- ents of Snake river; and the latter including the mining region of John Day and Umatilla rivt-rs, tributaries of the Col' aibia.

The Nez Perce and Salmon River mines may he said to have ac- complished the important results expected t)f them. They have drawn from all parts of the coast and from the east a large emi- gration, nearly trebling the population of the territory. They have yielded large and satisfactory returns in gold ; over $3,000,000 (it is estimated) having been shipped from the mines of Washing- ton and Oregon, through public and private channels. Enter- prising adventurers have been stimulated to prospect more thor- oughly portions of the great l)asin of the Upper Columbia, and new Melds of mineral wealth have rewarded their eftbrts, and the gold producing area of the Pacific States has been enlarged. Two new counties, Idaho and Xez Perce, were created from Shoshone County by the Legislative Assembly, Dec. 20, 1861. The coldest weather ever experienced on Puget Sound of which there is any record, occurred in January, 18B2. During that and the preceding month a large amount of rain and snow fell, corre- sponding to the (ixtraordinar}- rain fall of Oregon and California. At Vancouver, on the IVth of Janunry iit sunrise, the mercury stood lO*-"" below zero. jrnirtAHY, :{'-' I For several years past, Tiioutenant John Miillan, U. S. A., has been engaged in constructing a wagon road from Fort Benton, at the head of present navigation on the Missouri River, to Walla Walla, near the bend of the Columbia. He completed this important work in August, 1862, and the navigable waters of those two streams flowing to opposite oceans, were luiited l)y a good moun- tain road, 624 miles in length. I I.

Idaho County, organized December 20, 1861, comprises all that portion of what was Shoshone County lying south of the dividing ridge between the (Clearwater and Salmon Rivers. The name, ac- cording to one authority, is the Indian word for "star," but tlio signification popularly attributed to it is, " Gem of the Moimtains." Within its limits lie the rich gold fields of Salmon River, already possessing a world-w'de fame. Xew and important discoveries have recently been made on Boise River. It is probable that the greater portion of che county abounds in auriferous wealth. The scenery in .he neighborhood of Salmon River is remarkable and impi-essive. The stream flows between perpendicular walls of rock, from five hundred to two thousand feet high. ISLAND COUNTY. Florence City is situated on an elevated plateau in the heart of a wild mountainous region, its altitude being so great that snow exists in the vicinity the major portion-of the year. It is a striking example of the rapid growth of our mining towns. In the height of the mining season, and before the first year of its settlement was complete, its population exceeded 5,000.

Congress at its last session transferred the eastern boundary of Nevada from the thirty-ninth to the thirty-eighth degree of longi- tude, thereby adding nearly one-fourth to the extent of the ter- ritory. The past year has been fruitful in rfisults. It opened with a flood, which destroyed property estimated at from $200,000 to $1,000,000. This was followed by a stampede to the Salmon River mines which still further drained the territory of the means of de- veloping its resources. But these resources were too well known, iro vast and too multiform to remain undeveloped. The damaged mills were repaired and put into operation, and new ones were erected to meet the increased demand ; the busy hum of industry sounded on every hand, and unexampled prosperity followed. Ophir stock rose from $1,800 to $3,600 per foot. Other mines appreciated in a corresponding degree. Capitalists, and profes- sional and business men who came over from California to specu- late, remained to engage in business, build houses and homes, and permanently invest their capital. Virginia, Gold Hill, Silver, and Carson Cities have grown with magical rapidity, and the first named, numbering several thousand inhabitants, already wears a metropolitan aspect. It is computed that 1,000 wagon teams are engaged in carrying freight from Sacramento Valley to Washoe. The teams make about four trips during the season, hauling on an average two and a half tons at a load, at six to seven cents per pound. Thus we have an aggregate of 10,000 tons of freight transported over the mountains in one season, at a probable cost of $1,300,000. These figures hint strongly at the need of a railroad. .,„ 360 HAND-BOOK ALMANAC. James W. Nye, Orion Clemens, Warren Wassen, I. EXECUTIVE GOVERNMENT.

Washoe Lake, a small sheet of water in the southeastern part of Washoe ('ounty, not only contributed its name to the county in which it lies, but to the whole silver region bordering on Carson River. The county of Washoe lies between Storey County on the east and the boundary of California, and extends from Pyramid Lake on the north to Lake Bigler on the south. Washoe Valley and the chain of valleys extending northward along the course of Steamboat Creek and Truckee River, contain more or less agricul- tural and grazing land. An abundance of timber exists in the mountains, and saw-mills are in active operation along their base. Gold, silver, lead, and other minerals are profitably mined in this county. Tii»> Ophir Works, the most extensive reduction works in the territor , are locat. I on the western side of Washoe Valley, and are to be > mnected with the Ophir iidne at Virginia City, by a railroad. Courts. District Court. — First Judicial P -trict, Hon. Gordon N.

With the exception of Colorado, no State or Tertitory in the Union is so regular in its outlines as Utah, Its boundaries are entirely political or artificial, aud were it not for the notch in the northeastern part, caused by the corner of Nebraska, its form would be almost a square. The 109th degree of longitude divides it from Colorado on the east, and the 115th from Nevada on the west. The 37th parallel of latitude separates it from New Mexico on the south, and the 42d from Washington on the north. A high and rugged spur of the Rocky Mountains, generally des- ignated the Wasatch Range, though in places known as the Bear and Uinta Mountains, traverses the territory from north to south. At the base of these mountains, on the west, lies Great Salt Lake and the chain of valleys stretching southward for 200 miles. In these valleys, and on the eastern border of Great Salt Lake, peaches, apples, pears, plums, apricots, grapes, currants, and other fruits are siiccessfully cultivated, and also the various grains and vegetables grown in the temperate zone. The largest streams are Green and Grand Rivers, which unite and form the Colorado. The general character of the territory is that of moun- tain and desert. The streams sink as they emerge from the moun- tains, and many of them are entirely absorbed by the thirsty soil, «72 HAND-BOOK ALMANAC. before they have advanced six miles into the valleys. The lakes are generally saline, Great Salt Lake being the largest of that character in America. Extensive tracts of land, apparently of excellent quality, are ruined by the abundant presence of alkali, which corrodes vegetation. The population, about 80,000, is composed almost exclusively of a religious sect who style themselves Latter Day Saints, and are popularly known as Mormons. An imposing temple is in process of erection at Great ?:^.lt Lake City, where the wealth, power, and influence' of the church are centralized, and where its head, Presi- dent Biigham Young, ri sides. - . ., L GOVERNORS OF UTAH.

[For the following interesting and lucid statement of the organ - ization of the Church, we are indebted to President Brigham Young and Hon. Elias Smith, the historian of the territory.] First Presidency. — The first quorum of authority in the Church is the First Presidency, and is composed of three members, viz. : Brigham Young, Heber C. Kimball, Daniel H. Wells. Twelve Apostles. — The next quorum in authority is the Twelve Apostles, viz. : Orson Hyde, Orson Pratt, John Taylor, Wilford WoodruflF, George A. Smith, Amasa M. Lyman, Ezra T. Benson, Charles C. Rich, Lorenzo Snow, Erastus Snow, Franklin D. Rich- ards, George Q. Cannon. Seventies. — The next quorum in authority is the Seventies. The seventy members that constitute the first quorum of seventies, are all presidents of the first ten quorums of seventies, making seven presidents to each quorum ; the members of all the other quorums of seventies number sixty-three, each quorum having seven presidents. There are sixt^-two quorums of seventies or- ganized in Utah Territory. High Priests. — There is a quorum of High Priests, the numeri- cal extent of which is not defined. This quorum has a president and two counsellors. There are also quorums of Elders, Priests, Teachers and Deacons. The Seventies and High Priests in the various settlements in this Territory have meetings, and are regulated by a local presidency, separate from, but subordinate to, the standing presidencies of their quorums. John Smith (son of Hyram Smith) is presiding patriarch. There are several other patriarchs in the church. High Council. — There is a High Council, composed of twelve members, organized at Great Salt Lake City, and in all the princi- pal settlements of the Territory. 376 HAND-BOOK ALMANAC. Bishops. — The Territory is divided into wards, over each ward is a Bishop, with two counsellors. Great Salt Lake City is divided into twenty wards. Edward Hunter is the presiding Bishop. Membership. — In the Territory, the numerical membership of the church will nearly correspond with the population. Throughout the United States there are branches and membf rs of the church, but at present so disorganized that the number is not known. There are organized branches and conferences of the church throughout England, Scotland, Ireland, Wales, Denmark, Norway, Italy, Switzerland, the Germanic States, and in other parts of the world. .. ;;.<, IX.

Utah Lake, a fine body of fresh water, whose extreme length and breadth are 35 miles by 15, is situated near the centre of this county, and separates its two principal valleys, Utah and Cedar. The lake is connected with Great Salt Lake by the Jordan River, and is said to correspond to the Sea of Galilee, in Palestine, con- nected by the river Jordan with the Dead Sea. Utah Valley, east of the lake, is watered by several streams rising in the Wasatch Mountains, which in this county are remarkable for their rugged character. Cedar Valley, in the west part of the county, is of considerable altitude, and a good grazing district. Fort Crittenden is located in the northern part. County Okfickrs. Office. Name. SeHdenM.

The scenery of Wasatch County is not surpassed by that of any other portion of Utah Territory. It lies east of Great Salt Lake and Utah Counties, and is reached by means of a road costing $80,000, built along the Provo River, which runs through a mag- nificent gorge, a distance of 15 miles. Cascade Creek, coming from the south, falls over a precipice, into the canon, from a height of 1,000 feet. At its upper end the canon widens into a fine moun- tain-locked valley, 30 rniles long by 10 miles wide, watered with several beautiful creeks and many springs. At Hot Spring Town, several thermal springs have formed immense caldrons of limo- stone, some of them 40 or 50 feet deep, with hot water in the bot- tom, of various colors and temperatures. ?.J'V!- County Officers. .Lj;->.«4- '^ Office.

WASHINGTON COUNTY. The high, mountainous ridge — apparently an extension of the Wasatch range — forming the south rim of the Great Basin, trav- erses this, the most southern county in the Territory, in an east and west direction. In the eastern part, the Colorado runs through an impassable mountain gorge. Several fine valleys, on the head waters of the Rio Virgin, at the southern base of the mountains, enjoy a semi-torrid temperature, in which the attempt to grow cotton has been made, with uncertain results.

The two large streams, Ogden and Weber Rivers, flow through this county from the Wasatch Mountains to Great Salt Lake. Considerable tracts of valuable farming land, easily irrigated, render this an important agricultural county. Ogden Valley, high in the mountains, is about 20 by 10 miles, and affords an excellent summer range for stock. . i.^^.^,.. 396 HANr-BOOK ALMANAC. County Officers, OffiM. ■ Name. Refddence.

British Columbia lies north of the 49th parallel and west of the Rocky Mountains. It is about 300 miles wide, from east to west, and is traversed from north to south by broken chains of high and rugged mountains. Between the ranges lie broad expanses of table lands, diversified with lakes, prairies, and timber belts. The BRITISH COMIMBIA. 39T Streams are rapid and generally gold-bearing. The principal ones are the Frazer, flowing southward into the Gulf of Georgia, the Stikeen, flowing westward into the Pacific, and Peace River, flow- ing northeastward into Great Slave Lake. Cariboo, the famous mining district, is about 50 miles long, from east to Avest, by 20 broad, and includes the placers on many of the streams which flow into Frazer River, between its source in the Rocky Mountains and the point where it bends southward. The district is about 500 miles from the mouth of the Frazer, by the travelled route. Valuable auriferous deposits are also found in the head waters and principal affluents of each of the other streams above mentioned. PUBLIC DEPARTMENTS. Governor. James Douglas, C.

Vancouver Island is divided from Washington Territory by the Strait of San Juan de Fuca, and from British Columbia by the Gulf of Georgia. " Of an elongated form, it is essentially a moun- tain ridge, attaining at Mount Avrowsmith, an elevation of 5,900 feet. Cut up by numerous inlets of the sea, in no case does the water-shed suffice to give a navigable stream, though numerous fresh water lakes are found, imbosomed amongst the spurs of the mountain ranges. In length three hundred miles, with an average breadth of thirty to fifty, its outline is boldly picturesque ; its shores are characterized by abrupt cliffs, rocky promontories, magnificent harbors, sheltered coves, and pebbly beaches. * * The climate approximates closely to that of Great Britain, modi- fied by special circumstances connected with its physical geogra- phy." — Prize Essay by Charles Forbes^ Esq. The principal resources are coal, timber, and fisheries. The product of the coal mines of Narraimo in 1861, was about 15,000 tons. The free port of Victoria, situated on a commodious harbor, at the southeastern extremity of the Island, is the capital of the colony, and the principal commercial town in the British Posses- sions on the North Pacific coast. .
