4 OE AARNE ate Hr teat Bra wy retore ro Wuat Nextr!—A writer who is reviewed in the November number of Blackwood’s Magazine, announces the startling discovery, which will no doubt shake the whole literary universe, that Sir Walter Scott was not the autkor of the “Waverly Novels.” ‘The main reason which he gives for thus ruthlessly destroying the splendid fame of the great magician, is, that Sir Walter Scott had not time to write them, but that they are the productions of his brother, Mr. Frances Scott. and his sister-in-law, Mrs. Elizabeth Scott, both of whom resided in Canada. The writer should have been more merciful. It is terrible thus to demolish such a posthumous reputation as Walter Scotts. What boots it to possess the highest order of genius, and to bequeath thoughts to posterity, expecting them to earry ones vame downto the latest generation, if, after we are dead, such fellows disprove all we had lone. when living. Daniel Webster made a mistake when he said “the past at least is secure” and it may yet be shown that all his grand speeches were written by his grandmother. We shall next expect to hear disputed the claims of eminent literary eharacters yet living. We shall-not be surprised tolearn that Bulwer is amyth, that Dickens is not Boz—and that some beautiful Indian maiden, too modest. to ask for fame herself, presented Longfellow with the original manuscript of Sliawatha. fue Leoistarure. — This body is now permanently organized and ready for work. The democrats having free control of both branches, will justly be held responsible for all that is done.— Last winter the Amerieans had a large majority in the Assembly, while the Democrats had a small but effective majority in the Senate. Such being the ease, the Democracy claimed half the credit for all the acts which happened te prove popular, while they endeavored to throw all the blame onthe Americans, for passing the few measures which did not meet the approbation of the people. For instance, they are now loud in their denunciations of the State Prison bill, in the face cf the fact that a majority of the democratic Senators voted for it, while only oze democratic assemblyman -oted against it. ‘This year, judging from past democratic legislation, they will have to father worse bills than an y that werepassed at the last session. Wehotiee that the Senate has eleeted a Catholic Chaplain. We suppose that is for the purpose of having all their past It stretching of the power of the holy sins forgiven. church. Wonder if they intend to get indulgenges for future shorteomings ? Fist Justicia.—A justiee in Placer county recentiy had two Americans before iim for a slight assault and battery en an insolent Chinaman. Expecting The justi@®, new to his duties, saw that the a slight ‘fire, they glead guilty. statute fixed a fine, or a penalty, not to exceed-one year in the county jail. and sentenced the culprits to a year each. Ten-days would have beea ample.— There is no power to release them excopt that of the Governor, who is being Imeworialized to that end. GALE ar Curexco.—aA terrible gale of wind passed over this city on the 23d November. The steeple of the new Universalist Chureh was biown off, and three new five story brick buildings, in process of ¢onstruction, were blown down They were owned by Messrs. Brown & Wilder, 2. Horten. and G. W. Noble. Severallumber yards were also badly damaged. ‘The loss is estimated to be about thirty thousand dollars.

Upon calling to inyuire how her daughter progressed with her studies, she was told, «Not very well.” “Why, what is the reason?” “She wants capacity.” Well, you know i don*t regard expense; purchase one immediately.” A Composer’s Score. — A musical eomposer being asked if he had done anything lately, replied that his last work. was a compositionmwith his creditors, [3 KENNovan, the great pedestrian, commenced a walk of one hundred and three hours, on Monday last, on J st., Sacrainento, Iz is a folly to expect girls to be happy without ggarriage, every women was made for a mother ; consequently babies are as necessary to their piece of mind as health.

4 OE AARNE ate Hr teat Bra wy retore ro Wuat Nextr!—A writer who is reviewed in the November number of Blackwood’s Magazine, announces the startling discovery, which will no doubt shake the whole literary universe, that Sir Walter Scott was not the autkor of the “Waverly Novels.” ‘The main reason which he gives for thus ruthlessly destroying the splendid fame of the great magician, is, that Sir Walter Scott had not time to write them, but that they are the productions of his brother, Mr. Frances Scott. and his sister-in-law, Mrs. Elizabeth Scott, both of whom resided in Canada. The writer should have been more merciful. It is terrible thus to demolish such a posthumous reputation as Walter Scotts. What boots it to possess the highest order of genius, and to bequeath thoughts to posterity, expecting them to earry ones vame downto the latest generation, if, after we are dead, such fellows disprove all we had lone. when living. Daniel Webster made a mistake when he said “the past at least is secure” and it may yet be shown that all his grand speeches were written by his grandmother. We shall next expect to hear disputed the claims of eminent literary eharacters yet living. We shall-not be surprised tolearn that Bulwer is amyth, that Dickens is not Boz—and that some beautiful Indian maiden, too modest. to ask for fame herself, presented Longfellow with the original manuscript of Sliawatha. fue Leoistarure. — This body is now permanently organized and ready for work. The democrats having free control of both branches, will justly be held responsible for all that is done.— Last winter the Amerieans had a large majority in the Assembly, while the Democrats had a small but effective majority in the Senate. Such being the ease, the Democracy claimed half the credit for all the acts which happened te prove popular, while they endeavored to throw all the blame onthe Americans, for passing the few measures which did not meet the approbation of the people. For instance, they are now loud in their denunciations of the State Prison bill, in the face cf the fact that a majority of the democratic Senators voted for it, while only oze democratic assemblyman -oted against it. ‘This year, judging from past democratic legislation, they will have to father worse bills than an y that werepassed at the last session.
