triot fathers who planted the young tree
of the republic and wateredit with their
blood, in whatever they did, invoked
the God of impartial justice and called
upon the nations of the earth to witness
the rectitude of their intentions. The
descendents of the stern old Puritans
had transmitted from sire to son the allabsorbing desire of the pilgrims to found
commonwealth, and the
chivalry of that period disdained to
build itself on murder, robbery and
National virtue, in the early
years of our history, was throned in
every true American heart, and sat in
Wuereas, It having been for a long
time apparent to the mining interests of
the districts of Badger Hill, Cherokee,
North San Juan, Junctéon Bluff, Sweetland’s and Birchville. that the prices
asked for water by the water companies
which have been supplying the said districts are entirely disproportioned to the
yield of the diggings, and preclude the
possibility of the great majority of the
companies realizing anything over their
expenses, and believing that such a condition of affairs is injurious not only to
the miners themselves, but to the prosperity of the community at large; and
with all deference to the ability of the
water companies to understand their
own interests best, we think also detrimental to their permanent prosperity ;
it is, therefore,
Ist. Resolved, That for the purpose
of making an effectual organization to
earry out the objects of this meeting, an
executive committee, consisting of oue
individual from each mining company
(to be chosen by the majority of his
company,) in each of said districts, be
appointed, which committee shall be
empowered to take all necessary measures to complete such organization.
2d. Resolved, That the appointing of
the said Executive Committee be confided to a sub committee of six, consisting of one member from each of the said
districts, who shall be instructed to rea Christian
wrong.
judgment on every measure proposed,
where the honor of the nation was involved. So nice was the sense of national honor, that inthe first commercial
treaty with Greet Britain, an article was
inserted preventing, in case of war, the
sequestration of debts Jue one nation to
another, though greatly against the interests of the United States, many millions of dollars being dte British merchants at the This article was
proposed and inserted by John Jay, an

honor, I will forgive him the debt, and
pay the costs besides, if he will only
give mea fight. so that I can whale
him.”
Green, when he heard this, squared
himself, thinking that the court-room
would be sacred ; but Shortez pitched
in at once and clinched. Several, myself included, sprang to separate them,
when, in deep tones and waving the
bandana, the Judge exclaimed, “Gentlemen, gentlemen, stand back! If the
parties wish to effect a compromise,
don’t interfere!” And we stood back.
Green was whipped in a few seconds,
and after that obliged to pay the funds.
‘Tuns or Breap.—H. Berdan, already
distinguished as an inventor, and who
made quite a stir in the last legislature
with his ‘goose-neck” railroad for
Broadway, has just completed an enormous oven in Brooklyn, corner of Elm
Place and Fulton Avenue, ofa capacity
almost sufficient for the supply of the
whole city. Five hundred and forty
barrels of flour can be baked every day,
if the powers of the oven are put to their
full test. The apparatus is purely
scientific in its construetion, with specific reference to the preservation of the
alcoholic gases and other valuable properties which are wholly lost during fermentation, in the ordinary process of
baking—none of these being allowed to
escape. While exposed to the heat,
several organs suffer as a consequence
and become prone to diseased action.
The refugees banish themselves from
the comforts of home and the society ot
friends—mental axiety and depression
are the consequences, and these reacting on the enfeebled body tend to waste
it, or even militate against any beneficial agency the climate may exert in
fostering and strengthening its reeuperative powers. Privations also attend
this residence in a foreign land—wonted
habits are broken through—locomotion
is attended by fatigue and exposure—
and frequently it is impossible to obtain
those things and that advice which are
essential to the proper management of
themselves and the treatment of their
disease.”
Avoip ExTremes.—‘In the times of
turbulence,” said Washington, “when
the passions are afloat, calm reason is
swallowed up in the extremes to which
measures are attempted to be carried;
but when those subside, and its empire
is resumed, the man who acts from principle, who pursues the path of truth,
moderation and justice, will regain his
influence.” These are golden words.—
We conimend tnem to every man who is
tempted to sacrifice his deliberate convictions, whether in polities, social life,
business or otherwise, to what he thinks
expediency. There is not really amore

WeEDNESDAY, Dec. 3, 1856.
Pursuant to the above adjournment,
the miners of San Juan. Cherokee,
Badger Hill, Birchville, Junction Bluff,
and Columbia Hill, met in grand council
at Green’s Hall, on Wednesday, December 3d, 1856. Mr. Charles E.Olney,
chairman, called the meeting to order,
and the secretary being absent, A.
Eastin was elected to fill his place.
The committee appointed at said
meeting of December Ist, not being
present, the following persons were appointed to report on the premises above
mentioned, viz :
L. C. MeKibby, M. Dunlap, A. W.
Foults, Geo. B. Brown, Joel Howe,
Morehouse, jr., and D. C. P. Cummings.
Resolved, That a representation from
each mining company be requested to
sign his name to the proceedings of this
meeting, with the number composing his
company, as a guarantee of whatever
execration followed him to the grave.—
Aaron Burr would be a hero now, instead
of a traitor to his country. It was an
unlucky fate that his birth had not
been postponed to the present age. If
he was attempting to levy war against
his own country with the design of
wresting a section from the Union, what
less has Governor Bell, of Texas, endeavoredto do? How much less guilty
of sovereign
states, sworn to support the constitution
and laws?

If his designs were against
Mexico, how much higher would he ber
lauded as his genius and capacity for
very sensitive to the thermometrical
changes; and the least shrinkage or
contraction is made to act directly upon
the furnace fires, by its connection with
in the neighborhood of $40,000. The
plan is to furnish bakers with their daily
supplies at wholesale prices; and it is
contended that this can be done ata
much lower rate than they can supply
themselves. ‘The economy of labor
effected by Mr. Berdan’s invention, is
surprising when the number of hands
employed is contrasted with the results
accomplished—N. Y. Journul of Com.
Tueories CONCERNING Eartu
Qquakrs.—There are now two prominent
theories held by scientific men respecting earthquakes. One of these is what
is called the igneous theory, which maintains that the earth was once a molten
fire ball, and that its interior is still a
fiery mass, and is sometimes caused to
generate waves, which produce oscillations ou the earth’s surface. The second is what is known as the electric
theory, which attributes the shocks to
disturbed magnetic action in the crust
of the globe; that the shocks are nociples, yet let there be no hasty jndgments, no wild extremes, but solid earefully considered convictions.— Ledger.

than the Hebrew. In 1850, a man
might count upon his fingers all the
Synagogues in the land; now there are

arms thall be as follows: Fort Point 154
guns, Lime Point 80 guns, Angel Island

324 guns: Ofthese guns the majority
throw balls as heavy as 64 pounds;
some of them are 120 pounders, and
the lowest are 32 pounders. The fortifications at Fort Point and Alcatrez
Island, the most important positions are
in an advanced condition, and could be

de¢ided that the county should not subscribe $100,000 for the construction of a
railroad from Folsom to Auburn. The

We could expect nothing better in view
of a similar vote on the Pacific Railroad
project. ~~
