‘wunciation of ‘all kinds of amusement,

-yand it is seldom we find a preacher who
_ ‘alludes to such practices except in the
"way of abuse.’ Now, it is of coursé understood that all who connect themments are pronounced by Church rules
as wrong, members should not indulge
in them. But that there is any wi¢kedness essentially associated with the
dance or the play we do not believe,
and if. instead of denouncing these.
things indiscriminately, and abusing all
who. indulge. in such amusements, the
pulpit would endeavor to correct the
evils which are in them, miich more

are hopes of a resumption of work on
this valuable lead next Spring.
GoLpD Suiruanrs.—The shipments
of gold dust by our banking houses
during the past fifteen-days‘amounted
to the sum of $125,000, equal to about
three and a quarter millions a year.—
We are informed by a gentleman who
is posted up in these matters that the
produce of-gold is far in excess of this
amount, and will go nearer five millions
than three. Sosays the Grass Valley

Known ministers to denounce in the
‘wards attend the opera of Lucretia
Borgia, when we could not distinguish
@ay merits which the opera possessed
ever the play. The worldly minded
people cannot understand the inconsis_ tency of preaching and practice on the
“part of Church people, and the denun‘elation of thé ministry is becoming far
leas ‘common than formerly. Eminent
preachers are convinced that in order

to educate tlie moral #entiment, and

if instead of ranting against the read-. decided. The returns will be eager-}ing of works of fiction, a better class of
‘works should be issued to supply the
place of the “trashy stuff,” great good
would be accomplished. We are glad
that the Churches are beginning to view
the matter in a common sense light,
and we are satisfied that much good
“will'bé the result. The character of
worldly amusements dnd recreations
imay be elevated, but human nature demands them, and man will have them,
good or bad. It is therefore the best
: to remove the evil in amuse“ments and retain the good.
Danine CaBIN i daneeinhiient
der Griffin gives us the particulars of
the robbery of a cabin over at Heuston
Hill, says the Grass Valley Union, on
last Saturday afternoon between 2} and
4c’lock, ‘The cabin is occupied by
two of the men working on each shift.
At the change of shifte, between 3 and
4 o'clock in the afternoon, the cabin was
etemcty: for léss than half an hour,
and during this time the thief went to
the cabin, where he found a watch dog
_ Cheined near the door. The animal was
_gtruck in the mouth, probably by a blow
“from a slung shot, as three of his teeth
were knocked out ; and this accomplish.
ed, the thief broke open the door of the
cabin, entered the building, stole two
fine suits of clothing, one of which had
been worn, together with $5 in.
, and he then made’ his escape.
n Stevens, living but a few fect from
remuin cabin, saw the man going
away, but not knowing that he was a
‘thief did not follow the fellow until it
“Was too late to overtake him. Consid-eting that the robbery was committed
‘im broad day and ina thickly in~habited part. “Heuston Hill, we reard it as about the coolest thing we
heard of in many a day.

. Ture Legislatures of Michigan, Misméteors grand to behold, and tending
greatly to establish the fact of their
periodical return. The writer says that
he was not disappointed.at the failure
of this phenomenon last year, when it
was generally expected. He says the
grand meteoric displays of the past few
centuries have occurred on or about the
18th of November, and exactly thirty—
four years apart. He cites the occurrence of the phenomenon in 1799, and
again in 1833, in support of his opinion.
Admitting his theory to be correct, he
says, “we may reasonably expect to behold on the 13th of November, 1867, a
recurrence of the same sublime spectacle in the heavens which has so startled the world in years past.”
EASTERN ELEcTIONS.—Elections were
yesterday held in Massachusetts, Maryland, Michigan and Missouri for Governor and State officers. Elections
were also held in New York,New
of minor importance. In the latter
State the woman suffrage question was
ly ‘awaited by the » people of this State.
AvrroR.—The projector of this institution annoiinces that it will soon be
ready to fly. Tes. completion has been
somewhat delayed fort the want of funds,
but that difficulty has “been overcome,
the apparent feasibility o
taking being sufficient to b
the money from the pockets of
who are liberal enough to encoura
science.
