Spanish-language edition of laws passed at the seventh legislative session. Early California statutes were issued in English and Spanish, as required by a provision in the state constitution. When it was drafted, in 1849, Spanish was the native language of around 13,000 of California's nearly 100,000 residents, many of them recent arrivals due to the gold rush (1848-1855). Several statutes concern the incorporation of settlements. There are a few statutes reflecting the gold rush; one of these was an act regulating the activities of miners from foreign countries. Reflecting the growth of the state, there are also several acts establishing state and local officials. OCLC locates 14 copies, 4 in law libraries (University of Michigan, University of Minnesota, Washington State Law Library, Yale). Babbitt, Hand-List of Legislative Sessions and Session Laws 22.
