Dae plenty as trait is to-day. In early times every ravine and hillside in the aining districts, ‘glittered with golden “sands. With a pick and shovelan industrious man, if “at nll: fortunate,, could, in a few months, acquire what would be in most countries considered.a competency. Fabulous prices. were charged: ‘and.freely ~paid for every ‘necessary of life. The} — : ‘ta had-the effect to “thoroughly disgust]: State was ‘peopled with representa-. tives of/every conutry; dbd thé “iba. _<jority of theni were young and in the _ prime of life. Few women appeared «mony them, ‘and no. restraint was placed upon the deportment of & mia. jority of those upon whom fortune smiled. There sprang up ®. habit of recklessness in the expenditure of. _ money that would astcnish residents of dlder. communities. . In thesgrati. . fication of the selfish prepensities money was ot but little account. This pfactide became general, aud exists to, 9 great. measure. to-day. ‘The: expenses of a laboring man’s family is double what that, of the; most/substantial farmer in the Eustern States is. Every loxury is: en‘joyed by # majority so long as money is in the pocket with which ‘to purchase.» Lhe habit of extravagant expenditures exists, while the means of securing money have greatly changed. Thousands of heads: of families work industriously at fair rates of wages, only to supply the wants of their families, Everything used at the table is bought at high prices. Not a vegetable 1s raised or a pou: of meat salted down for 3 sumption, Expensive clothing “is worn; all kinds of Satsemen, S are pesanda cigars” are smoked and uor drank, and other expenses infred . hich eat up all the laborer’ ik and at the end of the year ~faost of them are in debt to their grocers ‘and butchers. “Those engaged in business are still. worse than the laboring man. Although their receipts .would be considered good and the profits large, in any. other country, yet they barely make: «. doth: erids meets, and goon from . yearito-year continually embarrassed in théir busitiess relations. All the ‘members of the community ia min-. ingcounties’ live beyond .their means, except those who are wealtby, The capitalists, are the economical ones. They spend less for. amusements, for luxuries,for dissipation of all kinds than the laboring man who obtains $3 a day for his. services. Everyone seems anxious to convey to the wurld the possession of wealth ‘and independence by lavieh expenditures-of their hard. earned money. The fault is general, and is a curge 4o-the community. Every man who ee only ten hours labor to perform, _ might raise ona little. spot of ground all thé’ Vegetables required for family use, after his hours of work are over, He.could keep a cow and make all the butter used, and supply the table with plenty of milk, He could -keep ‘hogs @riough on that which now'gdes to’ waste to partly supply the family with meat. Hens could} beikept enough to supply eggs, and ‘ah occasional yellow legged chicken for dinner, He could wear the. old garments,another year, do without cigats and liguor, . and by so doing have, at the eid Of the year at least $400, as profit from the year's work. _ The same remarks will apply to those engaged in business. ‘We ate all extravagant and profligate with money. Iu “no other place in the ‘world could the same state of affairs exist any length of time, and it is time a“ reform was inaugurated here. With esame economy practiced by wealthy residents of the East every dnaboting mah -here could secure a tompetency in five or ten years.

She has no defenders, and will be shunned by the friends. of ull thé “other parties, It is the way of the world and is an evidence of the unjustness of public opinion. The Regents of the State University sold at Auction on’ Saturday lust, three ‘blocks of the property ownedby the University, situated on Twelfth street, in Oakland, for $117,850. The pre arty was purchased in 1870, together with eighty-three acres estate speculations, they will demonstrate their financial ability at least. ‘The New Age, the organ of the Odd Fellows’, gives some interesting statistics of Odd Fellowship, for cthe year ending June 30th, 1874. It says the number of lodges reported in this State is 192, having a total mem-: bership of 15,724. The number of members at each age, from 21 years to 77 years is presented. There are 60 anembers 91 years of age, and the dy until the age of 40 years is reached, 757, The highest age of any member is 77 years, there being but one who is that old. .The average age of members 18 a fraction over 38 years.

If the young lady desires to retain the bloom and beauty of youth, let her not yield to the éway of fashion and folly; Yet her love truth and. virtue; and to the close of life she will retain those — which now make life appear a garden of sweets, ever fresh and ever new,
ReEPuTATION AND CHARACTER.—Repustiou is what a person is abeoibted to be by others; chatacter consists in what he really is, A great many defalcations: have come to light lately in ‘business houses, as the records of the police couris and bankruptcy ‘court show. ‘Lhe defauliers,.in every.sinstance, are spoken of as persons of eee standing.
