Pe ack WEDNESDAY MORNING, OCT. 14th, City and County Official Press UNION STATE TICKET. : For District Judge, 2 TT. BO MecPARLAND. _ BPer County Judge, A. C.

France gave thelter-to the early American statesmen and philosophers and interposed her arm:to shield us when we needed it. We wledged the fuvor, and the Stars and Stripes were intertwined. with the Tricolor, on many occasions, as if the two countries would never rend the bend of uffection that bound them together. Napoleon the Great ae sold Louisiana to the United States for fifmillions of dollars, and the remarks he about the aale se it was about to be ted showed his great sagacity as endship for our Republic. To nee pation on our side of heck to the power of i fora transfer of an to the United States. Itis true the. European combina~ tions against the great commander. were of such power as to require the utmost efforts of the French to meet them, and colonies ‘and = refinement.: aie aaa eee ees eae “AND Qe ay periodical excitements that sweep our State have « tmos¢ ruinous effect in more ways than one. Itis barely possible that alt who pull up stakes on this side of the mountains will better their condition on the other side. A grest many are liable to be disappointed. A grest ‘many will be disappointed. . The excitements of a new country will keep them from returning. The stir, bustle, life of a new region will attract every one within its . reach, and ore excitement will lead to anothLer, till the quiet that begets reflection and moral.and mental improvement is uuendurable. California was beghinieg to * buita up schoole end libraries. Her peopje were _-Lerecting and adorning homes as if to pass their days in enjoying the fruits of their labors. There was a goodly share of apparent contentment here. But«#@w excite ments have unsettled the minds ot more than nalf the population of the State and the evil influences spread to others like a contagion. The minds of schod! teachers are notso thoroughly engrossed in their calling as-they used to be. Our libraries are com‘. paratively unvisited. Nothing is talked about but “feet.” No matter about heads, if plenty of feet canbe had. Books, instruction, intelligence, are nothing. “Feet” are requisite and only feet. That society will] suffer by these excitements is beyond dispute. That the rising generation will lose by the state of things cannot be doubted. : These periodical excitements are auing to continue. The territory as-yet unexplored for minerale on this side of the continent is extensive. It will be searched, and pros» pected. We can easily see the result. The greatest mining region on the-globe will be laid open. The United States will almost furnish the world with metals. Californians, and men of the coast. will accuniulate wealth beyond precedent. But society here will be practical, but wanting education Tne. quiet essential to study cannot be had. Necessities of mining will sharpen the inventive genius of the peos ple, but.echolars will be few, and society will be feverish, volatile, und somewhat Parisian. . EASTERN News.— aides. Dana has sucadiatant part of the world were in danger of }eeeded to the command of Blunt in Louis being lost to France. This danger had semething to do with the cession of Louis~ ioua. But Napoleon looked beyond this and calvulated for checks upon “la perfide Albion.” He was nota great advocate of French coloaies. To make France a grand Continental Power was the main object. No Al» -goria, Tahitu or Mexico greatly excited his ambition. Such ambition was left to fire the blood of of the son of bis step-daughter. Times have changed. A new ruler sits on the throne of France. The completion of the fortifications of Cherbourg, the launching of a vessel or two like the Gloire, the re+ sult of the battle ef Solferino, a few inconsiderable victories in Mexico, dabbling with the Italians, and publication of a work en Juliue Caosar—these events have given the new Emperor an idea of hie own importance.— He, unlike bis uncle, wants colonies, which, unless backed by a powerful navy equal to that of Britain, are a weakneas rather than strength. Coloniee, unless strong of themselves, which Mexico, with its antagonistic parties, cannot pretend tu be, add nething to the strength of a nation, but deduct from it. But Loule Napoleon would go further and weaken his nation still note. The only . Power on the ocean that can opetate as a check upon the colossal naval superiority of the British is .the United States, and that Power, which the great Emperor strove to build up, bis successor Would break dowa by a division of its territory. Between the rebela and the French Emperor, there ia and has been, too much sympathy: Under the influ. ence of the Tuilleries Paris has become a hot_bed of secession. The tace of friends of -our Republic that formerly prevailed in Frawce ip becoming extinct. Noble specis . remain in the persons of auch phiViotor Hugo, nuble men! but they are but leadersof a minority, There is a quiet, sen. site under current of opinion all over France, in consonance with the ancient love between the two countries. It wants but _the appearance of danger to France to come to, the surface and be recdgnized. Diplo~ macy en our part will help it. Ifwe but enter into an alliance with the nations of Eu. rope jealous of France and England, our triumph over our enemics will te secured and right reason will again retura tv the sympathizers with American rebels, and Mexico will be secured against eererca chi “Seo cn ial iana on account of the sickness of the latter. The new general had a fight with the rebels and lost 800 prisoners. But he is taking. the proper steps et even. The reports from the enemy on the Rapidan are contradictory» One account makes Lee retreating to Richmond, while another — Hill's corps ae making attempts to get in the rearof Meade to cut bis communications. Our troops are said ante pared for battle. Price's troops are deserting and coming tol enlist in our armies in Arkansas. The Beet SS villas to that quarter are discouraged and . . many have thrown down their arms. The people in Arkansas consider that country lost to the Confederacy hopelessly. Cotton burning has ceased, and some lots are being brought in for sale. me Some fellow has swindled the ‘Richmond ee bankers out of a hundred thottsand dollars and left. Prices at Bannock Ciry.—Geo M. Wil. son formerly of this place, writes from Bannock city, Idaho Terfitory, under date of Sept. 18th, He says the country is pretty much the same in appearance all the way from Virginia city. The mining region-there is dry and the water all monopoheed. The’ gold is fine and has to be saved with quicks silver, which is worth $150 per flask. Flour is worth from $25 to 28 per hundred, bacon 50 cts per, pound, sujiir from 45 to 70 ots, beef 25 ots ko.
