Now they have animmense double sawmill, run by three water wheels, that. employs 20 men, a, furniture _ factory that keeps 10 men busy, a box factory working 130 men, a door _ factory 15 men, a moulding factory 10 men and 20 dwelling houses in __Truckee, In their logging camps_in the woods they keep 50 men in summer and 75 oxen and horses of their own and 50°more on contract.

They have their own fire engine in a good house and own besides, Their engine is manned by & company of their employes, thoroughly drilled. Several Sacramento . gentlemen have been trying to buy “the business recently, They could not buy out both, and offered to buy out either of the gentlemen, They . wanted to organize a. joint stock company.

Then, and not before, themselves fully protected inced to continue business tiest ‘mountain. town in indefinite system, it has been found that serious complications can arise, which it is. desirable should be avoided. PRES A RET EES Young Man Afraid-of-his-Work. No, my dear young man, this ‘Sourney of life” does.not lie all. the way through ‘verdant ‘valleys .and flowery meadows. The way is not thronged with generous hearted friehds and rich uncles to die and leave you their money. : It is not. always bright with the sunlight of pleasure. You will not find a bed of roses to recline on every time you are weary. Don’t expect it, or you will be very likely to be disappointed. You will find that about the time the path gets past the school-house it switches off into some rather rough country. You will very probably find some rough hills to climb and some deep gullies to cross; Thé briars will tear your nice clothes, and the stones will wear out your fine boots, and you will have blisteredheels and stone bruises in plenty before .you get through. You will find storms too—storms that will snatch you bald-headed, as like as not, or powder your hair with the white dust of-the-highway. There is only way to avoid allthis, That is to sit down, a whining beggar by the wayside, despised ‘and self-despising. But if you are going through, you must brace yourself up for hard climbing. You will find plenty of roses by the way, but they grow among thorns, and if you would gather them you must not he afraid of a few scratches. There are plenty of pure springs and cool fountains too, but they flow from the mountain side and you must climb to them. : All the fruits worth having are near the top of the trees. You cau have your game suppers and quail on toast too;-but the game is wild, and the birds roosts high, and you can’t put salt on their tails to catch them. You can have all this, we say, but just like as not when you get it you’ll have no teeth to chew it with, so you mustn’t build too high un that, Yes, yonng man, the glaciers of life are hard to climb aad you'll nevermake the trip without a guide. The name of the guide is ‘Work.’ Tie yourself to him, young man, and he'll pull you throagh allright. He is rough and rugged, as all moun-taineers are, but don’t be afraid of him on that account. Don’t despise his homely garments. He is a brave true hearted fellow, who has led thousands safely through, and will do the same for you, if you trust him. _ Takes the Lead, [Dutch Flat Forum.] City Dauy TRANSCRIPT came to hand enlarged to a seven-column paper printed on a new dress of type and with a new cylinder press.
