LAST SAD RITES. Funeral Services Over Ex-Governor Low. BEAUTIFUL FLORAL PIECES. A Resume of His Acts as War Governor. HE CHAMPIONED FREE SCHOOLS. To Prisoners He Gave No Benefit of Doubts After the Courts Had Passed Judgment. ' In a very unostentatious manner the mortal remains of the late ex-Governor Frederick F. Low were laid to rest in Laurel Hill cemetery yesterday. The funeral was conducted in a very simple and plain manner, with a total lack of anything like display, which was in ac- cordance with the well-kuowu wishes of tbe deceased. The services were held at the family I Henry L. Dodge.. W. Taylor. W. E. i I Urown, H. Jewett , J. Aldrich and Henry I ! Smith. * Among the prominent people present | ! were: Mrs. Stanford, General W. H. L. \ Barnes, Jud^e Charles A. Low, General J. I i F. Houghton, Adolph Spreckels, Alfred Bouvier, Louis Sloss, William Martin and Cornelius O'Connor. Frederick Ferdinand Low, whose death ! | has just left such a material gap in the i j rank* of California pioneers, was one of I ; the "war Governors" of the State, and the j steady hand with which he held the tiller during those anxious times bas left him since, and will forever leave him, a high \ place in the esteem of her citizens, a proud place in California history. In 1861. just as the war of the rebellion j broke out, he was elected to Congress on j ! the Republican ticket. At tho expiration 1 of his terra in the lower House, lie was | appointed oy President Lincoln Collector ' ot the Port of San Francisco, succeeding i , Hon. Ir- P. Rankin. He had been in this j office only a few months when the Repub- lican State convention, in the summer of 1863, nominated him for Governor. He was elected, and served the term of four years, ending in December, 1867. The Governor was inaugurated on De- i cember 10, 1563. Under amendments to the j i constitution, making the term of office ! four years instead of two, he became our j lirst executive for a four years' term. The ! [ legislative sessions were at the same time j < made biennial instead of annual. Tne \u25a0 war of the rebellion was then about half | fought, and was concluded when the j Governor reached the middle of bis term. In bis inaugural be declared that the able- | bodied men of th. State ought to be in- : i structed :n the use of arms and in military j ; drill; that he would not appoint drones to j office; he would use the veto power with j Harron to sell property of bis infant chil- dren provided that the title should not pass until approved by the Probate Court, while the general law in such cases de- clared that the court should inquire into the circumstances and order a sale if it deemed proper. The Governor said he could not sanction a special bill of this character. His veto was effective in kill- ing it. although eighteen Senators voted against the veto, while fourteen supported it. Invetoing a Senate bill to extend the provisions of certain acts to Township 4, Amador County, he said: "If this species of legislation be approved, it might be well to consider if it would not be well to abolish all city and county gov- ernments ana intrust the management of all local concerns to the L-gislßture.' He was sustained by 16 to 14. (Eight years later Governor Booth fell called upon to make the same pointed suggestions). The next veto was of Senate bill to grant certain richts and privileges to the Yreka Creek Drainage Company. It granted the exclusive right to construct ana maintain a drainage tunnel for twenty-live years. "The policy of the State and of the United States," said the Governor, "has been to leave the mineral lauds open, to be worked by all who choose to do so, subject to the local rules of the miners." This veto was sustained, lint seventeen Senators were against it, to sixteen for it. Another Sen- ate bill extended the term of a certain wagon-mad franchise from twenty to twenty-five years. It was vetoed on the ground that "twenty years seems to have been settled upon as a maximum, and there is no good reason for extending it in this case." This bill was passed over the veto unanimously. On March 28, 1864, the Governor vetoed two Assembly bills authorizing Lucian B. liealy and the executor of Dr. Elias S. Cooper to sell real estate of minors and residence on the southwest corner of Sut- ter and Gough streets, at 11 o'clock In the morning. Although the members of the family had expressed a desire that floral ; emblems be omitted, the many friends of j the ex-Governor could not refrain from tendering some final token of the esteem in which they held the deceased, and nu- merous pieces composed of fragrant blos- soms were sent to the house of mourning. Among them was a handsome piece from the members of the Loyal Legion com- posed of eucharist lilies and ferns. An- other was a piilow composed of white flowers upon which the words, "Rest, Dear Friend," were displayed In purple violets from 11. L. Dodge. Mrs. Jane Stanford sent a combination cluster piece of red and white roses and maidenhair. •Among the other flower, pieces were a floral column, with a pendent wreath, and an elegant white cross lully five feet in height. The casket, which rested in the front parlor of the residence, was covered with heavy black cloth, and was metallic lined. Besides tbe massive silver handles, the on ornamentation was a large plate on the lid, bearing the name, age and date of death of the deceased. Around the bier were piled masses of fragrant flowers. The services were conducted by the Key. George E. Walk of Trii ity Church, and tho music was rendered by Samuel D. Mayer's Masonic choir. "Nearer, My God, to Thee" was ren- dered by tne choir prior 10 the first read- ing of the ritual. The rector in the course of the service gave a short eulogy of the deceased, and then the choir sang "1 Heard a Voice From Heaven" and "Good Night." This ended the ceremonies, and the cas- ket was borne to the hearse by the follow- ing pallbearers: Louis Parrott. ex-Senator Charles N. Felton, Robert F. Morrow, caution; the pardoning power he would use only when justice demanded it— the prisoner would not be allowed the benefit of doubts when the doubts had been passed on by court and jury; in regard to private charities. State aid would be a source of pride if the State had anything to give, but appropriations of promises to pay, while State warrants are selling in the market at low rates, was generosity at the expense of justice. There was room, he thought, for much improvement In our educational system ; a registry law was urged. Our mining in- terests were even then, according to the Governor, the most important of any, and he eulogized the policy of the General Government in reserving to itself the title to all mineral lands and in permitting all citizens to enter freely uoon them for min- ing purposes. A few days after his inauguration Gov- ernor Low vetoed a Senate bill to fix the compensation of the El Dorado County Supervisors on the ground that it pro- -1 vided that the County Treasurer should pay the salaries of those officials without the demands being first approved by the Auditor. This was, he said, in contra- vention of the established mode of trans- : acting the business of the several counties. ' This view was sustained unanimously. On January 30, 1864, he vetoed Senate : bill concerning the Calaveras Mining Com- pany. The certificate of the company's ! incorporation had been filed in Calaveras County, while the mine and place of busi- ness were in San Joaquin. The company had transacted its business there for four years: the bill proposed to legalize Its , past acts ; Ihe Governor held it was uncon- :stitutional, and the Senate sustained him by 13 to 12. The next Senate bill vetoed was one concerning forcible entry and unlawful de- | tamer suits, which beheld to be ex post facto; he was sustained by 19 to 14. Sen- -1 ate bill to authorize Captain William M. heirs without first obtaining an order of sale from the Probate Court. "1 believe," he said, "this class of legislation unwise and contrary to the spirit and intent of the constitution." The Assembly passed both bills over ihe veto, but the Senate sustained the Governor nearly unan- imously. On April 4. 1864, he vetoed the Senate bill to aid iv the construction of the California portion of the Pacific Kail- road on the ground that it violated that provision of the constitution which de- clared "the credit of the State shall not be loaned," etc. This veto was sustained, but there were 19 votes against it to 15 in its support. On the same day was vetoed the Senate bill to au- thorize the Oakland and San Antonio Steam Navig"tion Company to improve the navigation of San Antonio Creek. The Governor took the position in this veto that tolls on navigable streams should not he authorized, and he was unanimously sustained. At the same session a billby Assembly- man Joseph Wood (not Joseph M. Wood) passed both houses, proposing to vest in the county, probate and police courts of San Francisco the power of committing insane persons to asylums. . In vetoing it the Governor observed that "the natural result would be that the Police Court would order nearly the commitment, being in daily session"; he thought that court should not have anything to do with this business. Be was sustained unanimously. His Excellency vetoed three Assembly bills on the same day—one granting a road franchise in Amador County, be declaring that the general laws 011 such subject were sufficient and special acts wholly unneces- sary; another like bill, the franchise being in Marin County, on which he quoted at length from his inaugural against special legislation; the third bill was to author- ize a certain administrator to sell and convey real estate, and on this he said the courts had ample power to order sales in such cases. All three of these bills were passed by the Assembly over the veto by not merely two-thirds but a three- fourths vote, Charles Clayton, Nathaniel Gray and Philip Teare voting with the majority. Two weeks later another bill from the Assembly was presented to him authorizing an administrator's sale with- out court order, and in launching the In- evitable veto he referred to bis objections to such bill and said that since his last veto he bad again carefully examined the question and bad been confirmed in his opinion. The Assembly submerged this veto by a vote of 47 to 10. The Senate, however, cried halt! although it had also passed over the veto the three other As- sembly bills just above named. In this last mentioned veto message the Governor was pleased to use this pointed language: "i am aware that the Supreme Court In deciding on the constitutionality of a cer- tain special act, providing for a change of venue in a somewhat noted criminal case, impliedly approved of this class of legisla- tion coutrary to tbe opinions of the best legal minds in the State, but the decision was so repugnant to the good sense and opinions of good citizens that itis doubt- ful if a similar one could he obtained from any court at the present time." The case referred to was that of the lawyer Horace Smith, who had killed one Newell, a printer, for. alleged slander of Smith's wife, sister of Judge James H. -lardy, and later the wife of JudueT. li. Keardon of Nevada City. Being indicted for murder, Judge Alexander Campbell of the Twelfth District Court denied bim a change of the place of trial. The Legis- lature passed an iiqt changing the place of trial from San Francisco to Placer County. Governor John G. Downey vetoed this act, and both bouses pas-ed it over tbe veto. Judge Campbell still refused to transfer the case, on tho ground tbat it was uncon- stitutional. On an application to the Su- preme Court for a writ of mandate that tribunal rendered the decision against which Governor Low declaimed as above. The opinion that the act to change the venue in Smith's case was unconstitu. tional was written by Judge Joseph G Baldwin, and concurred In by Judge YV* VV. Cope and Chief Justice Stephen J' Field. Smith was tried in Placer and ac- quitted. Another Assembly bill vetoed tbat ses- sion was by Frederick Lux of Tuolumne, to grant the Union Bridge Company the right to construct a bridge across the Stan- islaus River. The general law on the sub- ject provided that any such bridge could be purchased by the county after five years from its completion. The bill of Lux contained no such provision. The veto, based on that omission, was unan- imously sustained, Lux himself being pres- ent aud voting. Early in the next session a bill was passed reducing the salary of the County Judge and District Attorney of Mono Couuty. . The Governor, in approving it, said be did so with reluctance, believing it "of doubtful constitutionality and questionable propriety." Senate bill by Judge James E. Hale' of Placer, to amend an act of the previous session dividing that county into revenue districts, pro- vided that the Tax Collector should pay into the county treasury 15 per cent (only) of his collections. "Tho effect of this bill." said the Governor In vetoing it, "is simply to increase the compensation of a certain Tax Collector." The Senate vetoed this veto by a vote of 25 to 3, and the Assembly rode over it by a unanimous vote of 60, including the Speaker, Yule of Placer. Mark A. Evans was County Treasurer of San Joaquin from October, 1859. to October, 1861. He was found to be a de- faulter in the sum of $13,783 52. The sureties, B. W. Bours and others, paid into th« State treasury §10,569 87 on ac- count of the defalcation, leaving a balance of $3213 65. The State sued them for this and obtained judgment. A bill to release this obligation passed both houses at the session oi 1865- and the Governor vetoed It. He said the practice of releasing sure- ties was unjust to the tax-payers, light- ened the regard felt for such obligations, and "sureties upon bonds stand upon their legal rights, and I can see no reason why they should invoke equity to release them from their obligations." But the Senate, by a vote of 21 to 4, and the Assembly by 56 to 7, passed the bill over the veto. In this majority iv the Assembly were Judge Thomas A. Brown of Contra Costa and the San Franciscans Charles Clayton, Michael Hawkins and George Hearst. The Governor vetoed a bill by Assembly- man J. F. Kidder of El Dorado to aid in the construction of tlie Placerville and Sacramento Valley and Western Pacific Railroads, March 31, 1866. The bill pro- vided that the State should pay the inter- est on the companies' bonds, to be issued at 7 per cent per annum on $750,000, and _ percent interest on bonds already issued by the Western Pacific Railroad in the sum of $1,500,000, the interest to be paid semi-annually lor twenty years. To create a fund to pay this interest a tax was to be levied of 10 cents on each $100 of taxable propsrty in the State annually for twenty years. The interest to be paid would have amounted to $2,850,000. In re- turn the companies were to transport free of charge public messengers. State prison convicts in custody, lunatics going to asylums, materials for the construction of State buildings, articles for exhibition at State agricultural fairs and troops and munitions of war. One of the companies was to build and equip at least twenty miles of road each year, the other ten miles a year. One road was 120 miles long, with nearly twenty built; the other about forty miles long, with thirty built. We quote tbe veto message: Leaving out of view the legal aud constitu- tional questions Involved, I cannot reconciln measures of mis character with my settled convictions of public policy. Is It of sufficient Importance to the people of the whole Mate that ten miles of railroad be built between Shingle Springs: and riacervllle lo justify a contribution ol $1,050,000? * • * That there may be do mifconcepilou In regard to the course adopted by me in the approval of an act granting aid to the Central P.icltic Kailroad Company in 1804 and withholdingmy assent to the bill under consideration, 1desire to say that when I approved the former act I had iv view the fact that Its acceptance by that com- pany released the State from a donation of half a million dollars, made in lime of war, by the Legislature of 1803. The change lv the character of the donation I considered at the time advantageous to the State, tor the with- drawal from the tieasury, within a short time, of $500,000 would bave serious. v embarrassed: the Stale Onances, while a larger sum, distrib- uted through a period of twenty years, could be met without serious inconvenience. The Assembly sustained this veto by a vote of 61 to 7. Ou May 18, 180"), the United States Cir- cuit Court for California confirmed to the city of San Francisco the title of tne United States to ail lands within the city limit*, with certain reservations and ex- ceptions. On March 8, 18»'6, an act of Congress was passed in pursuance of this decree of court conveying the lands to the city upou the following trust: The city was to convey the granted lands to the parties who were in the bona-fide actual possession thereof when the act was passed, in such quantities and upon such terms and conditions as the State Legisla- ture might prescribe. After this act of Congress, and in the same month, the California Legislature passed an act (by Assemblyman C. L. Wiggin of San Fran- cisco) to provide for the settlement of the titles to these lauds. Governor Low vetoed this bill. His reasons were that it divested the city of the power and trust confided by Congress, and organized a commission to make conveyances of title, an act which oniy the city could perform, and by ordinance. The Legisla- ture could only prescribe in what quanti- ties and on what terms and conditions the city should convey. The only participa- tion the bill allowed the city was to ap- prove the bonds of the Commissioners, pay their salaries, provide them with an office, clerks, etc., and to appear befoie the Commissioners by attorney. The Gov- ernor made other objections and declared that the bill, if it became a law, would dis- turb and unsettle, rather than settle, land titles in San Francisco. This veto was sustained by the Assembly by a vote of 51 to 13. Among those thirteen, besides Wig- gin, were Henry Dutton and Charles Clayton, of San Fraucisco, and H. C. Chamberlain, then of San Joaquin and since receiver of the San Francisco Land Office, now deceased. 7 '7, Governor Low was in office when Con- gress passed the act donating to this State the Yosemite Valley and the Mariposa Big Tree Grove. In conformity thereto he ap- pointed commissioners to take charge of the property. In the absence of any ap- propriation for that purpose he induced the United States Surveyor-General to sur- vey the two tracts, and in accordance with his suggestion acts were passed by the Legislature accepting tbe nation's gift and providing lor the payment for the survey. The last great drought in our agricul- tural districts prevailed in the summer fol- lowing Governor Low's inauguration. In his next biennial message he urged a gen- eral system of irrigation, and on this sub- ject he said: From the remptest and rudest mechanical ap- pliances mentioned in history, to tue latest and most perfect system established by modern science, we learn the fact that irrigation has been an Indispensable adjunct in the agricul- ture of tilt countries possessing a large scope ot level territory. Egypt and the Roman empire, China, Italy, Holland, France, Spain and Eng- land fully attest the wonderful and n»ver fall- ing success that has ever followed a judicious system of drainage and irrigation. Insome of the countries last named, which we are accus- tomed to consider a century behind our own in the arts of civilization, crops of grass and Brain are grown that put to the blush the boasted productions of our own proline soil. On March 18, 1864, the Governor sent to the Legislature a communication invok- ing a remedy for "the existing embar- rassing condition of affairs"— the floating indebtedness of the Stale having reached the constitutional limit of $300,000. The Controller had declined to draw any more warrants upon the treasury until the out- standing indebtedness was reduced by payments. The remedial measure called for was passed. A little over one year after the Governor left the executive chair General Grant be- came President of the United States, aud appointed the ex-Governor United Sates Minister to China. On his way to . the Orient from Washington lie attended the sixiy-fourth annual dinner of the New England Society in New York City, and made a happy address, December 22, 1869. SCENE AT EX-GOVERNOR LOW'S FUNERAL. A Grocer's Failure. A petition to be declared Insolvent was filed In the Superior Court yesterday by . \ V. J. G. Mulii, a grocer, whose liabilities amount to $3550 and whose assets are $150. MISS BALL'S WAY. Lecturer, Solicitor and Art-Teacher. AND WANTS A COMMISSION. An Eastern Firm to Supply Schools Here. DIRECTOR DUTTON'S SURPRISE. Another Sensation for the Board of Education in the Shape of a Requisition. Since Director (Hyde's recent crusade against teachers appropriating diminu- tives in signing certificates, the School De- partment has remained conspicuously un- obtrusive. In the midst of this unusual run of tranquillity, however, another sen- sation bas cropped up. and although the affair has been nipped in the bud the board may have occasion to further inves- tigate into tbe matter of certain applica- tions for teachers' certificates which were granted at the recent examination. Tbe affair was brought to light yester- day, when Director Dutton. chairman of the Supply Committee, received an applica- tion from Miss Katheriue Ball, principal of the drawing department, for an appropria- tion of $2581 for paper to be used by the scholars in their studies. Mr. Button's long connection with the board has served to prepare him for any ordinary surprise, but when he readoverMiss Ball's schedule bis emotion knew no bounds. He declared that the demand was preposterous beyond reason, and that Miss Ball had either made a mistake in her calculation? or considered the Board of Education a sort of banking institution tor tbe benefit of teachers. He stated emphatically that the committee would refuse to consider the matter, and that unless Miss Ballaccepted the supplies usually allowed her department sbe would have to content herself with none at all. The fact of Miss Bail's appointment has subsequently given food for considerable discussion among the Directors, it being alleged that certain facts regarding her qualifications for filling the position were withheld or denied by her in making the usual application. It appears that Miss Ball bad been en- gaged for a number of years as a travel- ing agent lor the large printing bouse of Prang & Co. of New York. Aside from her duties as a solicitor among retail deal- ers throughout the country her specialty has been tbat of introducing a system of drawing for use in tbe public schools. Being endowed with oratorical talent she has found it quite advantageous io lecture before educational assemblages whenever the occasion arose, while during the past two years her efforts have been directed toward enlightening this coast upon new theories in the study of art, of which she thought the woolly West was in great need. The system expounded by Miss Ball is known as the "Prang system" aud a3 a natural consequence the paper and material best adapted to its study are manufactured by Prang & Co. of New York. Upon arriving in this city a few months since Miss Ball was seized with a desire to become an instructress in the public schools. She accoidingly made out an ap- plication in which she look great rains to cite recommendations of high order. When being considered by the Board of Educa- tion the fact became known that certain relations existed between the applicant and the firm of Prang & Co., but when called upon for an explanation, it is said that Miss Ball denied that such was the case, claiming to be entirely independent of any house dealing in school supplies. Upon this statement the plication was carried by "the niaj rity" and when the school term opened on the 7ih inst. Miss Ball was placed in charge of the drawing department. When seen yesterday afternoon at the old Commercial High School on Powell street, Miss Ball admitted being in the employ of Prang & Co. at the time her ap- plication was hied with the board, but as- sumed that the denial was the result of a misunderstanding. "It was not my intention to apply for a position as instructress in tbe public schools when 1 arrived in this city .last si ring," she continued, "but as I saw that the drawing department was so far be- hind the times, 1was seized with a desire to introduce Prang's improved system simply for the sake of humanity, and it was witb tbis understanding that I was induced to enter the field. No! No! 1 wouldn't stay in San Francisco for more than a year under any circumstances; but you see my intention is to introduce this system and my successor can take it up." Bundles of colored drawing-paper were lying about on the desks in the room where the conversation took place. Oi the band surrounding each was inscribed •'Prang's best." A number of small boxes containing models were similarly branded, as were also other materials which came into view. Miss Ball asserted that the paper in question had been manufactured in this city, but In order to establish the Prang mark as the only standard she had given instructions that the packages should hear the name of the Eastern firm. She stated Unit this order was simply a small one, and was made up here because of the delay caused by the recent tie-up in forwarding a supply which bad been or- dered in New York. She maintained that in many of the large Eastern cities it was customary for the Board of Education to supnlv tlm schools not only with drawing materials but standard t7xi book* and general sup- plies; that upon entering the department hern it was understood that all supplies used in teaching drawing were to be thus furnished, which accounted for the requi- sition handed in yesterday. One of the leading members of the board, who desires his namH withheld in connection with the affair, and whose at- tention has beeu specially directed toward advancing the art department in the school, "aid that there was no reason why the supplies should not De purchased in this city. Be. asserted that the paper manufactured here was quite as good as any Eastern make, while the same models were on sale at almost any of the larger art stores along MarKet street. In regard to Miss Ball's denial that she was associated with the Prang Coaipaay when the matter was brought up, he stated emphatically that the position was only given alter it had been thoroughly understood that no such relations existed. it is quite probable that the whole affair will be sifted at the next meeting of the board, while in the meantime Miss Ball's famous schedule will be pared down, with a possibility that local merchants will reap the Harvest. RETURNING HOME. Most of the Militia Will Be Back To-Day. The Eighth Takes San Francisco Regiments' Places Up North. Oakland Still Guarded. The San Francisco militia willprobably be at home again in a lew day.. All yesterday small detachments of men Kept airivingin the city, and to- day Itis expected that many more will come. About 100 men of the First Regiment. N. G., came down from yesterday. These consisted of details from Companies C, 1), F. tr and H. Companies A aud B leave Truckee lor Sacramento to-day. whence they will probably return home immediately. it is expected that by 8 o'clock this evening the whole of the First Beglm nt willhe back. The Second Eegimeiit also sent home a detail of men fiom each compauy. To-day the entire Second Battalion willreturn home, though the majority of the First Battalion of the Second Regimeut will probably remain up some time longer. Companies £, D and (1 of tbe Third Keglment came down from Sacramento yester- day and Companies A, B. C and i*' are expected to return to-day. This does not mean the withdrawal of the militia from Sacramento, however, as the places of the San Francisco men are being taken by the Eighth Regiment. Company Aof the Eighth left Chico aud went into camp at Sacramento yesterday, as did Company B of Colusa, C of Marysville, E of 1. udiuc, F of Oiovilieand of Williams, 'ihe 300 Federal soluiers on duty at Sicramento will probably remain there some time loueer. The three companies of the Fifth Infantry, A, 1' aud (I, lemaiintig in camp at Oakland, were ordered out of service yesterday. A de- tachment from Light Battery A also returned from Oakland as well as the fourteen men who had been in Sacramento. It Is expected that the whole of Uatteiy A will return to-day. There still remain in Oakland seven companies of the Second Artillery,one troop oi cavalry, one Napa company, oue company from V 'allej. and companies B. C and 11 of the Naval Hatui- lion. '1 he Second Artilleryand tbe sailor boy* willprobably be the last to be ordered out of service. The Federal Marines are still at tha Oakland Mole. Three companies ot the Sixth Inlantry are at Baker. -Held, and one company of the N. G. C. is at Port Costa; there are also two Stockton com- panies of militia at Dunsmulr Id the Siskiyou region. Twenty-live extra deputies Have beeu scut io Oakland oy the United Suites Marshal as train guard!!, and two will be sent out on each through freight train to Oregon, the southern part ol the Stute, or any point east of Truckee.

LAST SAD RITES.

Funeral Services OverEx-Governor Low.

BEAUTIFUL FLORAL PIECES.

A Resume of His Acts as WarGovernor.

HE CHAMPIONED FREE SCHOOLS.

To Prisoners He Gave No Benefit ofDoubts After the Courts Had

Passed Judgment. '

In a very unostentatious manner themortal remains of the late ex-GovernorFrederick F. Low were laid to rest inLaurel Hillcemetery yesterday.

The funeral was conducted in a verysimple and plainmanner, with a total lackof anything like display, which was in ac-cordance with the well-kuowu wishes oftbe deceased.

The services were held at the family

IHenry L. Dodge.. W. Taylor. W. E. iIUrown, H. Jewett ,J. Aldrich and Henry I!Smith. *

Among the prominent people present |! were: Mrs. Stanford, General W. H. L.\ Barnes, Jud^e Charles A. Low, General J. IiF. Houghton, Adolph Spreckels, Alfred

Bouvier, Louis Sloss, William Martin andCornelius O'Connor.

Frederick Ferdinand Low, whose death !| has just left such a material gap in the i

j rank* of California pioneers, was one of I; the "war Governors" of the State, and the j

steady hand with which he held the tillerduring those anxious times bas left himsince, and will forever leave him, a high \place in the esteem of her citizens, a proudplace in California history.

In1861. just as the war of the rebellion jbroke out, he was elected to Congress on j

! the Republican ticket. At tho expiration1 of his terra in the lower House, lie was| appointed oy President Lincoln Collector

'ot the Port of San Francisco, succeeding i

, Hon. Ir-P. Rankin. He had been in this joffice only a few months when the Repub-lican State convention, in the summer of1863, nominated him for Governor. Hewas elected, and served the term of fouryears, ending in December, 1867.

The Governor was inaugurated on De- icember 10, 1563. Under amendments to the j

iconstitution, making the term of office !four years instead of two, he became our jlirst executive for a four years' term. The !

[ legislative sessions were at the same time j< made biennial instead of annual. Tne \u25a0

war of the rebellion was then about half |fought, and was concluded when the jGovernor reached the middle of bis term.Inbis inaugural be declared that the able- |bodied men of th. State ought to be in- :

istructed :n the use of arms and in military j;drill;that he would not appoint drones toj office; he would use the veto power with j

Harron to sell property of bis infant chil-dren provided that the title should notpass until approved by the Probate Court,

while the general law in such cases de-clared that the court should inquire intothe circumstances and order a sale if itdeemed proper. The Governor said hecould not sanction a special billof thischaracter. His veto was effective in kill-ing it. although eighteen Senators votedagainst the veto, while fourteen supportedit. Invetoing a Senate bill to extend theprovisions of certain acts to Township4, Amador County, he said: "If thisspecies of legislation be approved, itmight be well to consider ifitwould notbe well to abolish all city and county gov-

ernments ana intrust the management ofall local concerns to the L-gislßture.' Hewas sustained by 16 to 14. (Eight years

later Governor Booth fellcalled upon tomake the same pointed suggestions).

The next veto was of Senate bill to grant

certain richts and privileges to the YrekaCreek Drainage Company. Itgranted theexclusive right to construct ana maintain adrainage tunnel for twenty-live years."The policy of the State and of the UnitedStates," said the Governor, "has been toleave the mineral lauds open, to be workedby all who choose to do so, subject to thelocal rules of the miners." This veto wassustained, lint seventeen Senators wereagainst it,to sixteen for it. Another Sen-ate bill extended the term of a certainwagon-mad franchise from twenty totwenty-five years. It was vetoed on theground that "twenty years seems to havebeen settled upon as a maximum, andthere is no good reason for extending it inthis case." This bill was passed over theveto unanimously.

On March 28, 1864, the Governor vetoedtwo Assembly bills authorizing Lucian B.liealy and the executor of Dr. Elias S.Cooper to sell real estate of minors and

residence on the southwest corner of Sut-ter and Gough streets, at 11 o'clock In themorning. Although the members of thefamily had expressed a desire that floral ;

emblems be omitted, the many friends of jthe ex-Governor could not refrain fromtendering some final token of the esteemin which they held the deceased, and nu-merous pieces composed of fragrant blos-soms were sent to the house of mourning.

Among them was a handsome piece fromthe members of the Loyal Legion com-posed of eucharist lilies and ferns. An-other was a piilow composed of whiteflowers upon which the words, "Rest, DearFriend," were displayed In purple violetsfrom 11. L. Dodge. Mrs. Jane Stanfordsent a combination cluster piece of redand white roses and maidenhair.•Among the other flower, pieces were afloral column, with a pendent wreath, andan elegant white cross lully five feet inheight.

The casket, which rested in the frontparlor of the residence, was covered withheavy black cloth, and was metallic lined.Besides tbe massive silver handles, theon ornamentation was a large plate on thelid,bearing the name, age and date of deathof the deceased. Around the bier werepiled masses of fragrant flowers.

The services were conducted by theKey. George E. Walk of Trii ity Church,and tho music was rendered by Samuel D.Mayer's Masonic choir.

"Nearer, My God, to Thee" was ren-dered by tne choir prior 10 the first read-ing of the ritual. The rector in the courseof the service gave a short eulogy of thedeceased, and then the choir sang "1Heard a Voice From Heaven" and "GoodNight."

This ended the ceremonies, and the cas-ket was borne to the hearse by the follow-ing pallbearers: Louis Parrott. ex-SenatorCharles N. Felton, Robert F. Morrow,

caution; the pardoning power he woulduse only when justice demanded it—theprisoner would not be allowed the benefitof doubts when the doubts had been passedon by court and jury; in regard to privatecharities. State aid would be a source ofpride if the State had anything to give, butappropriations of promises to pay, whileState warrants are selling in the marketat low rates, was generosity at the expenseof justice.

There was room, he thought, for muchimprovement In our educational system ;a registry law was urged. Our mining in-terests were even then, according to theGovernor, the most important of any, andhe eulogized the policy of the GeneralGovernment inreserving to itself the titleto all mineral lands and in permitting allcitizens to enter freely uoon them for min-ing purposes.

A few days after his inauguration Gov-ernor Low vetoed a Senate billto fix thecompensation of the El Dorado CountySupervisors on the ground that it pro-

-1 vided that the County Treasurer shouldpay the salaries of those officials withoutthe demands being first approved by theAuditor. This was, he said, in contra-vention of the established mode of trans- :acting the business of the several counties.'This view was sustained unanimously.On January 30, 1864, he vetoed Senate:bill concerning the Calaveras Mining Com-

pany. The certificate of the company's!incorporation had been filed in CalaverasCounty, while the mine and place of busi-ness were in San Joaquin. The companyhad transacted its business there for fouryears: the bill proposed to legalize Its

, past acts ;Ihe Governor held it was uncon-:stitutional, and the Senate sustained himby 13 to 12.

The next Senate bill vetoed was oneconcerning forcible entry and unlawful de-|tamer suits, which beheld to be ex post

facto; he was sustained by 19 to14. Sen--1 ate bill to authorize Captain William M.

heirs without first obtaining an order ofsale from the Probate Court. "1believe,"he said, "this class of legislation unwiseand contrary to the spirit and intent ofthe constitution." The Assembly passedboth bills over ihe veto, but the Senatesustained the Governor nearly unan-imously. On April 4. 1864, he vetoed theSenate bill to aid iv the construction ofthe California portion of the Pacific Kail-road on the ground that itviolated thatprovision of the constitution which de-clared "the credit of the State shallnot be loaned," etc. This veto wassustained, but there were 19 votesagainst it to 15 in its support. On thesame day was vetoed the Senate bill to au-thorize the Oakland and San AntonioSteam Navig"tion Company to improve thenavigation of San Antonio Creek. TheGovernor took the position in this vetothat tolls on navigable streams should nothe authorized, and he was unanimouslysustained.

At the same session a billby Assembly-man Joseph Wood (not Joseph M. Wood)passed both houses, proposing to vest inthe county, probate and police courts ofSan Francisco the power of committinginsane persons to asylums. . In vetoing itthe Governor observed that "the naturalresult would be that the Police Courtwould order nearly the commitment, beingin daily session"; he thought that courtshould not have anything to do with thisbusiness. Be was sustained unanimously.His Excellency vetoed three Assemblybills on the same day—one granting a roadfranchise in Amador County, be declaringthat the general laws 011 such subject weresufficient and special acts whollyunneces-sary; another like bill, the franchise beingin Marin County, on which he quoted atlength from his inaugural against speciallegislation; the third bill was to author-ize a certain administrator to sell andconvey real estate, and on this he said thecourts had ample power to order sales insuch cases. All three of these billswere passed by the Assembly over theveto by not merely two-thirds but a three-fourths vote, Charles Clayton, NathanielGray and Philip Teare voting with themajority. Two weeks later another billfrom the Assembly was presented to himauthorizing an administrator's sale with-out court order, and in launching the In-evitable veto he referred to bis objectionsto such bill and said that since his lastveto he bad again carefully examined thequestion and bad been confirmed in hisopinion. The Assembly submerged thisveto by a vote of 47 to 10. The Senate,however, cried halt! although it had alsopassed over the veto the three other As-sembly bills just above named.

In this last mentioned veto message theGovernor was pleased to use this pointedlanguage:"iam aware that the Supreme Court In

deciding on the constitutionality of a cer-tain special act, providing for a change ofvenue in a somewhat noted criminal case,impliedly approved of this class of legisla-tion coutrary to tbe opinions of the bestlegal minds in the State, but the decisionwas so repugnant to the good sense andopinions of good citizens that itis doubt-ful if a similar one could he obtained fromany court at the present time."

The case referred to was that of thelawyer Horace Smith, who had killed oneNewell, a printer, for.alleged slander ofSmith's wife, sister of Judge James H.-lardy, and later the wife of JudueT. li.Keardon of Nevada City. Being indictedfor murder, Judge Alexander Campbellof the Twelfth District Court denied bima change of the place of trial. The Legis-lature passed an iiqt changing the place oftrial from San Francisco toPlacer County.Governor John G. Downey vetoed this act,and both bouses pas-ed itover tbe veto.Judge Campbell still refused to transferthe case, on tho ground tbat it was uncon-stitutional. On an application to the Su-preme Court for a writ of mandate thattribunal rendered the decision againstwhich Governor Low declaimed as above.The opinion that the act to change thevenue in Smith's case was unconstitu.tional was written by Judge Joseph GBaldwin, and concurred In by Judge YV*VV. Cope and Chief Justice Stephen J'

Field. Smith was tried in Placer and ac-quitted.

Another Assembly bill vetoed tbat ses-sion was by Frederick Lux of Tuolumne,to grant the Union Bridge Company theright to construct a bridge across the Stan-islaus River. The general law on the sub-ject provided that any such bridge couldbe purchased by the county after fiveyears from its completion. The bill ofLux contained no such provision. Theveto, based on that omission, was unan-imously sustained, Luxhimself being pres-ent aud voting.

Early in the next session a bill waspassed reducing the salary of the CountyJudge and District Attorney of MonoCouuty. . The Governor, in approving it,said be did so with reluctance, believing it"of doubtful constitutionality andquestionable propriety." Senate bill byJudge James E. Hale' of Placer, to amendan act of the previous session dividingthat county into revenue districts, pro-vided that the Tax Collector should payinto the county treasury 15 per cent (only)of his collections. "Tho effect of thisbill."said the Governor In vetoing it, "issimply to increase the compensation of acertain Tax Collector." The Senatevetoed this veto by a vote of 25 to3, andthe Assembly rode over it by a unanimousvote of 60, including the Speaker, Yule ofPlacer.

Mark A.Evans was County Treasurerof San Joaquin from October, 1859. toOctober, 1861. He was found to be a de-faulter in the sum of $13,783 52. Thesureties, B. W. Bours and others, paidinto th« State treasury §10,569 87 on ac-count of the defalcation, leaving a balanceof $3213 65. The State sued them for thisand obtained judgment. A bill to releasethis obligation passed both houses at thesession oi 1865- and the Governor vetoedIt. He said the practice of releasing sure-ties was unjust to the tax-payers, light-ened the regard felt for such obligations,and "sureties upon bonds stand upon theirlegal rights, and Ican see no reason whythey should invoke equity to release themfrom their obligations."

But the Senate, by a vote of 21 to 4, andthe Assembly by 56 to 7, passed the billover the veto. In this majority iv theAssembly were Judge Thomas A. Brownof Contra Costa and the San FranciscansCharles Clayton, Michael Hawkins andGeorge Hearst.

The Governor vetoed a bill by Assembly-man J. F. Kidder of El Dorado to aid inthe construction of tlie Placerville andSacramento Valley and Western PacificRailroads, March 31, 1866. The bill pro-vided that the State should pay the inter-est on the companies' bonds, to be issuedat 7 per cent per annum on $750,000, and _percent interest on bonds already issuedby the Western Pacific Railroad in thesum of $1,500,000, the interest to be paidsemi-annually lor twenty years. Tocreate a fund to pay this interest a taxwas to be levied of 10 cents on each $100of taxable propsrty in the State annuallyfor twenty years. The interest to be paidwould have amounted to $2,850,000. Inre-turn the companies were to transport freeof charge public messengers. State prisonconvicts in custody, lunatics going toasylums, materials for the construction ofState buildings, articles for exhibition atState agricultural fairs and troops andmunitions of war. One of the companieswas to build and equip at least twentymiles of road each year, the other tenmiles a year. One road was 120 miles long,with nearly twenty built; the other aboutforty miles long, with thirty built. Wequote tbe veto message:

Leaving out of view the legal aud constitu-tional questions Involved,Icannot reconcilnmeasures of mis character with my settledconvictions of public policy.

The change lv thecharacter of the donation Iconsidered at thetime advantageous to the State, tor the with-drawal from the tieasury, within a short time,of $500,000 would bave serious. v embarrassed:the Stale Onances, while a larger sum, distrib-uted through a period of twentyyears, could bemet without serious inconvenience.

The Assembly sustained this veto by avote of 61 to 7.

Ou May 18, 180"), the United States Cir-cuit Court for California confirmed to thecity of San Francisco the title of tneUnited States to ail lands within the citylimit*, with certain reservations and ex-ceptions. On March 8, 18»'6, an act ofCongress was passed in pursuance of thisdecree of court conveying the lands to thecity upou the following trust: The citywas to convey the granted lands to theparties who were in the bona-fide actualpossession thereof when the act waspassed, insuch quantities and upon suchterms and conditions as the State Legisla-ture might prescribe. After this act ofCongress, and in the same month, theCalifornia Legislature passed an act (byAssemblyman C. L. Wiggin of San Fran-cisco) to provide for the settlement of thetitles to these lauds. Governor Lowvetoed this bill. His reasons were that itdivested the city of the power and trustconfided by Congress, and organized acommission to make conveyances oftitle, an act which oniy the city couldperform, and by ordinance. The Legisla-ture could only prescribe in what quanti-ties and on what terms and conditions thecity should convey. The only participa-tion the bill allowed the city was to ap-prove the bonds of the Commissioners,pay their salaries, provide them with anoffice, clerks, etc., and to appear befoiethe Commissioners by attorney. The Gov-ernor made other objections and declaredthat the bill, ifit became a law, would dis-turb and unsettle, rather than settle, landtitles in San Francisco. This veto wassustained by the Assembly by a vote of 51to 13. Among those thirteen, besides Wig-gin, were Henry Dutton and CharlesClayton, of San Fraucisco, and H. C.Chamberlain, then of San Joaquin andsince receiver of the San Francisco LandOffice, now deceased. 7 '7,

Governor Low was in office when Con-gress passed the act donating to this Statethe Yosemite Valley and the Mariposa BigTree Grove. Inconformity thereto he ap-

pointed commissioners to take charge ofthe property. In the absence of any ap-propriation for that purpose he inducedthe United States Surveyor-General to sur-vey the two tracts, and in accordance withhis suggestion acts were passed by theLegislature accepting tbe nation's giftandproviding lor the payment for the survey.

The last great drought in our agricul-tural districts prevailed in the summer fol-lowingGovernor Low's inauguration. Inhis next biennial message he urged a gen-eral system of irrigation, and on this sub-ject he said:

From the remptest and rudest mechanical ap-pliances mentioned inhistory, to tue latest andmost perfect system established by modernscience, welearn the fact that irrigation hasbeen an Indispensable adjunct in the agricul-ture of tilt countries possessing a large scope otlevel territory. Egypt and the Roman empire,China, Italy,Holland, France, Spain and Eng-land fullyattest the wonderful and n»ver fall-ing success that has ever followed a judicioussystem of drainage and irrigation. Insome ofthe countries last named, which we are accus-tomed to consider a century behind our own inthe arts of civilization, crops of grass and Brainare grown that put to the blush the boastedproductions of our own prolinesoil.

On March 18, 1864, the Governor sent tothe Legislature a communication invok-ing a remedy for "the existing embar-rassing condition of affairs"— the floatingindebtedness of the Stale having reachedthe constitutional limit of $300,000. TheController had declined to draw any morewarrants upon the treasury until the out-standing indebtedness was reduced bypayments. The remedial measure calledfor was passed.

Alittle over one year after the Governorleft the executive chair General Grant be-came President of the United States, audappointed the ex-Governor United SatesMinister to China. On his way to . theOrient from Washington lie attended thesixiy-fourth annual dinner of the NewEngland Society in New York City, andmade a happy address, December 22, 1869.

MISS BALL'S WAY.

Lecturer, Solicitor andArt-Teacher.

AND WANTS A COMMISSION.

An Eastern Firm to SupplySchools Here.

DIRECTOR DUTTON'S SURPRISE.

Another Sensation for the Board ofEducation in the Shape of

a Requisition.

Since Director (Hyde's recent crusadeagainst teachers appropriating diminu-tives in signing certificates, the School De-partment has remained conspicuously un-obtrusive. In the midst of this unusualrun of tranquillity, however, another sen-sation bas cropped up. and although theaffair has been nipped in the bud theboard may have occasion to further inves-tigate into tbe matter of certain applica-tions for teachers' certificates which were

granted at the recent examination.Tbe affair was brought to light yester-

day, when Director Dutton. chairman ofthe Supply Committee, received an applica-

tion from Miss Katheriue Ball, principal ofthe drawing department, for an appropria-tion of $2581 for paper to be used by thescholars in their studies. Mr. Button'slong connection with the board has servedto prepare him for any ordinary surprise,but when he readoverMiss Ball's schedulebis emotion knew no bounds. He declaredthat the demand was preposterous beyondreason, and that Miss Ball had either madea mistake in her calculation? or consideredthe Board of Education a sort of bankinginstitution tor tbe benefit of teachers. Hestated emphatically that the committeewould refuse to consider the matter, andthat unless Miss Ballaccepted the suppliesusually allowed her department sbe wouldhave to content herself with none at all.

The fact of Miss Bail's appointment hassubsequently given food for considerablediscussion among the Directors, it beingalleged that certain facts regarding herqualifications for fillingthe position werewithheld or denied by her in making theusual application.

Itappears that Miss Ball bad been en-gaged for a number of years as a travel-ing agent lor the large printing bouse ofPrang &Co. of New York. Aside fromher duties as a solicitor among retail deal-ers throughout the country her specialtyhas been tbat of introducing a system ofdrawing for use in tbe public schools.Being endowed with oratorical talent shehas found it quite advantageous io lecturebefore educational assemblages wheneverthe occasion arose, while during the pasttwo years her efforts have been directedtoward enlightening this coast upon newtheories in the study of art, of which shethought the woolly West was in greatneed.

The system expounded by Miss Ball isknown as the "Prang system" aud a3 anatural consequence the paper and materialbest adapted to its study are manufacturedby Prang & Co. of New York.

Upon arriving in this city a few monthssince Miss Ball was seized with a desireto become an instructress in the publicschools. She accoidingly made out an ap-plication in which she look great rains tocite recommendations of high order. Whenbeing considered by the Board of Educa-tion the fact became known that certainrelations existed between the applicantand the firm of Prang & Co., but whencalled upon for an explanation, it is saidthat Miss Ball denied that such was thecase, claiming to be entirely independentof any house dealing in school supplies.

Upon this statement the plication wascarried by "the niaj rity" and when theschool term opened on the 7ih inst. MissBall was placed incharge of the drawingdepartment.

When seen yesterday afternoon at theold Commercial High School on Powellstreet, Miss Ball admitted being in theemploy of Prang &Co. at the time her ap-plication was hied with the board, but as-sumed that the denial was the result of amisunderstanding.

"Itwas not my intention to apply for aposition as instructress in tbe publicschools when 1 arrived in this city .lastsi ring," she continued, "but as Isaw thatthe drawing department was so far be-hind the times, 1was seized with a desireto introduce Prang's improved systemsimply for the sake of humanity, and itwas witb tbis understanding that Iwasinduced to enter the field. No! No! 1wouldn't stay in San Francisco for morethan a year under any circumstances; butyou see my intention is to introduce thissystem and my successor can take it up."

Bundles of colored drawing-paper werelying about on the desks in the roomwhere the conversation took place. Oithe band surrounding each was inscribed•'Prang's best." Anumber of small boxescontaining models were similarlybranded,as were also other materials which cameinto view.

Miss Ball asserted that the paper inquestion had been manufactured in thiscity, but In order to establish the Prangmark as the only standard she had giveninstructions that the packages should hearthe name of the Eastern firm.

She stated Unit this order was simply asmall one, and was made up here becauseof the delay caused by the recent tie-up inforwarding a supply which bad been or-dered in New York.

She maintained that in many of thelarge Eastern cities it was customary forthe Board of Education to supnlv tlmschools not only with drawing materials

but standard t7xi book* and general sup-plies; that upon entering the departmenthern it was understood that all suppliesused in teaching drawing were to be thusfurnished, which accounted for the requi-sition handed in yesterday.

One of the leading members of theboard, who desires his namH withheld inconnection with the affair, and whose at-tention has beeu specially directed towardadvancing the art department in theschool, "aid that there was no reason whythe supplies should not De purchased inthis city. Be. asserted that the papermanufactured here was quite as good asany Eastern make, while the same modelswere on sale at almost any of the largerart stores along MarKet street.Inregard to Miss Ball's denial that she

was associated with the Prang Coaipaaywhen the matter was brought up, hestated emphatically that the position wasonly given alter it had been thoroughlyunderstood that no such relations existed.

it is quite probable that the whole affairwillbe sifted at the next meeting of theboard, while in the meantime Miss Ball'sfamous schedule will be pared down,with a possibility that local merchantswillreap the Harvest.
