It is a copy, with modifications, Of a wood engraving reproduced in the Sacramento Union, March 31, with the comment: The building measures 34 feet on Front street and 63 on J street. The apartment occupied as the True Delta Depot, originally rented for per month. What its present rent is we are unable to say, but if newspaper litera ture pays a profit, the rent ought to be nearly as high as formerly, as from the Depot are issued semi-monthly, six thousand five hundred copies of the California True Delta, the best paper that comes to California.
