A worm is sometimes found in the fairest Tese; a serpent appeared in Eden; a Judas among even the apostles, and among the statesmen of our country an evilgenius was fated to appear whose mission should be mischief and destruction. That genitis was John C. Calhoun. Insidious as the worm, subtile as the serpent and ungrateful to his country as Judas to his master, he executed as far ag was in him the work of evil. He Inid bare the weak parts in the American government, undermined others, invited attack from the top of its walls, and left behind him the infernal missiles for perverse followers to handle agaiust the Constitution andthe Union. The great devil departed, but has been followed by ten thousand imps of hell who are banding together in the southern states of this Union for theavowed purpose of destroying the fairest govern= ment on which the sun ever shone. The dragon’s teeth sown by Calhoun have sprung up armed men, who, with slavery as the pretext are bent onruinand destruction . to the American Union. With these reason can have little er no effect. They must be overmastered by public opinion, or made to feel the smart of justice. By acalm and conciliatory course the northern slave states may be saved to the Union, for a time, at least, but the spirit of Disunion is abroad, and nothing but athor. ough eradication of the seeds of Calhounism } from the breasts of the southern people can secure perpetual peace to the country, if even that can be effectual. Grare Growing Rerort.—Hon. J. M Avery, of the Assembly has sent us a public document emanating from a committee in the Assembly and devoted to grape growing. There is nothing new in the report whaté¢ver. What the country wants is not generalities, not a history of the planting of} the grape on the Pacific by the eld padres, but information derived from experience in this State if possible, and, if not, from erperience obtained in cultivating the vine . ix other portions of the world, as to qual. ities of soi! nevéssary to produce the dif. ferent kinds of grapes in perfection; the mode of planting and modes of cultivation; what kinds would be likely to do best in this section and what in that; and, in short, we want suchinformation as will instruct the people in a knowledge of how to grow grapes successfully in all parts of the State. We want an encouragement based on the results of experiments made in vine! { . . i . planting. We notice the committee recommend a commission be appointed to further the cause of vine growing. If the commission be established of competent persons, it will redound to the good of the country and.qwe shall be ready to concede to the report before ug the merit of suggesting a step progressive in the right direction. Cuance ov Vsncr.—The Legislature has . passed an act granting a change of venue . in the case of Horace Smith, from San Francisco to Placer County. Welook upon the act as one on which the Governor may very properly fix his veto. A more glaring interference of oae department of the government with another has never occurred. . Why the Legislature should step in and asgume the business of the Judiciary in Horace Smith's case more than any other, is . unprotected roots or sheltering foliage, a prey to the} Other . guish it altogether. We shall proceed to notice some of the causes that have conspired to retard the cultivation of fruits in the elevated regions of the State. Years ago whea trees and vines were few and prices consequently high, the incentives to cheat were Trees were brought into the mountains, after their great. roots were chopped off close and saved to graft Ly the nurserymen, and sold at fabuious prices. They were set out by men fantiliar with the old mode of trimming, the lower limbs necessary in this hot climate to shield the body of the tree from the scorching sun were cut away, aud the poor stranger was left, without borer, or be burned at the discouragemetits met the tivator of fruit. were filled stake. would-be culHis orders for trees in the most execrable manner. If he wanted pipins, he got a tree with a} Pippin label which proved en bearing to be something else atid wholly worthiess. The finest kinds of fruit brought the highest prices, and advantages were taken by nurserymen and oftener by the strolling tree pedlars, to palm off the common kinds for the most choice. So frequently have men been swindled in this way that no confidence exists that what is purchased of auy body will prove as represented. In the matter of grapes almost every yariety known to vine growers has been sold in this vicinity, which on trial prove to be all or nearly all, of one kind—the Mission, or Les Angeles variety. These experience has proved to be quite as tender as any, subject to be nipped by the late frosts of the spring. The cheated vine grower looks at his vines after a frost, and seeing all kinds, as he supposes, cut down, is fain to declare grapes cannot be grown at this elevation, and is ready to abandon their culture. The Mission grape if setlate does not find time during even our long summers in the mountains to mature, and the cultivator, noticing no difference in all the kinds he supposed he purchased, in this respect, is confident that the mountains cannot grow grapes successfully. There is another fact too worthy of notice. The demand for vines iz so great that the great nurseries in the valleys are drained annually of every grape vine of the foreign varieties. In order to continue the drain the idea is industriously circulated by culturists and the journals in their interest, that the sooner a vine is planted in the spot where it is to grow, the better, Thus vines that have just begun to root are torn from the ground, their roots mangled and clipped, and dispatched on a seven days journey in the hot sun, it may be, to be planted by some infatuated individual in the mountains. When they arrive the small thread-like roots are found dried up, and destroyed, and the vine requiring the nicest care to retain in it a spark of vitality. A gentleman who has worked in the vineyards ef France nearly all his life, tells us a vine is never set there till it is two years old, and often the transplanting is deferred one and even two years longer. long, fresh roots sre essential. year old might be taken from the soil and Good, A vine one transplanted immediately with euce s3.— But it is reasonable to say that no smal’rooted vine can be out of the ground six or eight warm days without injury, unless care, more than is usually bestowed by teamsters, is given it. The rush for vines is so great, however, and doubtless will be for years to come, that we are obliged to take such as we can get or none. But we beleive it will be found on trial that two year old vines will do best, as a general rule, particularly if not notelear.

There is another discouragement many, who have not the time or the knowledge of the business to do the work themselves, are frequently called to meet.

They areall of date not older than Les Debats treats Mr. Buchanan movement, and disarms the Federal power by his own inaction.” The Opinion Nationale does not hesitate to charge him flatly with treason.

The vintage has been both small and bad; and what is worst of all, come news from the Rhone region, and the wines of this year, which were clearing in the casks, quite as usual, have undergone a second fermentation during the late unnaturally warm and damp weather. Everything goes wrong: men’s blood and brain ferment, also, unwholesomely ; and it is generally thought that all will explode together, somewhere about the first of April.

Gonzales Otega} Minister of the Interior, Gen. Llave ; Minister of Justice, Fuente ; Minister of Internal Improvements, Emparan. The first decree of the new Goverr. ment, was for the expulsion of the Spanish Minister, Pacheco, Barrico, the Gautemalan Minis. ter, and Clementi, the Pope’s Nuncio, charged with intriguing with the Church Party for the renewal of civil wars. The British Minister, Matthew Frereh, Minister Saligny, and the Prussian Minister, Wagner, expressed their readiness to recognize the Liberal Government as the only Government of Mexico.

A worm is sometimes found in the fairest Tese; a serpent appeared in Eden; a Judas among even the apostles, and among the statesmen of our country an evilgenius was fated to appear whose mission should be mischief and destruction. That genitis was John C. Calhoun. Insidious as the worm, subtile as the serpent and ungrateful to his country as Judas to his master, he executed as far ag was in him the work of evil. He Inid bare the weak parts in the American government, undermined others, invited attack from the top of its walls, and left behind him the infernal missiles for perverse followers to handle agaiust the Constitution andthe Union. The great devil departed, but has been followed by ten thousand imps of hell who are banding together in the southern states of this Union for theavowed purpose of destroying the fairest govern= ment on which the sun ever shone. The dragon’s teeth sown by Calhoun have sprung up armed men, who, with slavery as the pretext are bent onruinand destruction . to the American Union. With these reason can have little er no effect. They must be overmastered by public opinion, or made to feel the smart of justice. By acalm and conciliatory course the northern slave states may be saved to the Union, for a time, at least, but the spirit of Disunion is abroad, and nothing but athor. ough eradication of the seeds of Calhounism } from the breasts of the southern people can secure perpetual peace to the country, if even that can be effectual. Grare Growing Rerort.—Hon. J. M Avery, of the Assembly has sent us a public document emanating from a committee in the Assembly and devoted to grape growing. There is nothing new in the report whaté¢ver. What the country wants is not generalities, not a history of the planting of} the grape on the Pacific by the eld padres, but information derived from experience in this State if possible, and, if not, from erperience obtained in cultivating the vine . ix other portions of the world, as to qual. ities of soi! nevéssary to produce the dif. ferent kinds of grapes in perfection; the mode of planting and modes of cultivation; what kinds would be likely to do best in this section and what in that; and, in short, we want suchinformation as will instruct the people in a knowledge of how to grow grapes successfully in all parts of the State. We want an encouragement based on the results of experiments made in vine! { . . i . planting. We notice the committee recommend a commission be appointed to further the cause of vine growing. If the commission be established of competent persons, it will redound to the good of the country and.qwe shall be ready to concede to the report before ug the merit of suggesting a step progressive in the right direction. Cuance ov Vsncr.—The Legislature has . passed an act granting a change of venue . in the case of Horace Smith, from San Francisco to Placer County. Welook upon the act as one on which the Governor may very properly fix his veto. A more glaring interference of oae department of the government with another has never occurred. . Why the Legislature should step in and asgume the business of the Judiciary in Horace Smith's case more than any other, is . unprotected roots or sheltering foliage, a prey to the} Other . guish it altogether. We shall proceed to notice some of the causes that have conspired to retard the cultivation of fruits in the elevated regions of the State. Years ago whea trees and vines were few and prices consequently high, the incentives to cheat were Trees were brought into the mountains, after their great. roots were chopped off close and saved to graft Ly the nurserymen, and sold at fabuious prices. They were set out by men fantiliar with the old mode of trimming, the lower limbs necessary in this hot climate to shield the body of the tree from the scorching sun were cut away, aud the poor stranger was left, without borer, or be burned at the discouragemetits met the tivator of fruit. were filled stake. would-be culHis orders for trees in the most execrable manner. If he wanted pipins, he got a tree with a} Pippin label which proved en bearing to be something else atid wholly worthiess. The finest kinds of fruit brought the highest prices, and advantages were taken by nurserymen and oftener by the strolling tree pedlars, to palm off the common kinds for the most choice. So frequently have men been swindled in this way that no confidence exists that what is purchased of auy body will prove as represented. In the matter of grapes almost every yariety known to vine growers has been sold in this vicinity, which on trial prove to be all or nearly all, of one kind—the Mission, or Les Angeles variety. These experience has proved to be quite as tender as any, subject to be nipped by the late frosts of the spring. The cheated vine grower looks at his vines after a frost, and seeing all kinds, as he supposes, cut down, is fain to declare grapes cannot be grown at this elevation, and is ready to abandon their culture. The Mission grape if setlate does not find time during even our long summers in the mountains to mature, and the cultivator, noticing no difference in all the kinds he supposed he purchased, in this respect, is confident that the mountains cannot grow grapes successfully. There is another fact too worthy of notice. The demand for vines iz so great that the great nurseries in the valleys are drained annually of every grape vine of the foreign varieties. In order to continue the drain the idea is industriously circulated by culturists and the journals in their interest, that the sooner a vine is planted in the spot where it is to grow, the better, Thus vines that have just begun to root are torn from the ground, their roots mangled and clipped, and dispatched on a seven days journey in the hot sun, it may be, to be planted by some infatuated individual in the mountains. When they arrive the small thread-like roots are found dried up, and destroyed, and the vine requiring the nicest care to retain in it a spark of vitality. A gentleman who has worked in the vineyards ef France nearly all his life, tells us a vine is never set there till it is two years old, and often the transplanting is deferred one and even two years longer. long, fresh roots sre essential. year old might be taken from the soil and Good, A vine one transplanted immediately with euce s3.— But it is reasonable to say that no smal’rooted vine can be out of the ground six or eight warm days without injury, unless care, more than is usually bestowed by teamsters, is given it. The rush for vines is so great, however, and doubtless will be for years to come, that we are obliged to take such as we can get or none. But we beleive it will be found on trial that two year old vines will do best, as a general rule, particularly if not notelear. Ifhe is guilty of murder let him take his chance before his peers, in like manner as the humblest citizen. Let us hare no favors shown the influential, more than the obscure when life is at stake for crime. Impartiality and aothing more has any onesthe right to expect who has yiolated the laws. Gor. Downey wil veto that act, we feel confident. re-planted immediately. There is another discouragement many, who have not the time or the knowledge of the business to do the work themselves, are frequently called to meet. They employ a professed floristand gardener to prune their trees and vines. Ina few hours the things Thar Mittary Bitt of Gen Cobb re. areindiscriminateiy butchered.

Tue Frexen Press on tax AwericaN Cris1s.—The Paris correspendent of the N. Y. Tribune says: Mr. Buchanan gets very hardly serv¥ed,all the mere hardly that the French publicists serve out their appreciations of nis conduct with no mingling of passion. I quote from four newspapers that chance to be under my hand ; they are the organs respectively of tour different French parties or shades of parties. They areall of date not older than Les Debats treats Mr. Buchanan movement, and disarms the Federal power by his own inaction.” The Opinion Nationale does not hesitate to charge him flatly with treason. The Censtitutionnel finds the explanation of his misconduct of affairs ness of purpese. Le Sivcle regartls tis device of a general fast and prayer as not an ablé political measure; but as a prayer is undoubtedly and eminently a good thing, and humiliating likewise,speaks of the Fast . with entire respect, but urgently presses on Mr. Buchanan and our people, to consider . whetber the Presidential Past is the one apt to the case ; whether the only right kind of a fast is not better indicated in Isaiah, chapter Lyi, verses Sto l0 inclusive? “Is not this the fast that Ihave chosen? To loose the bands of wickedness, to undo the heavy burdens, and to Jet the oppressed go free, and that ye break every yoke?” For the Isaiah as above. PropaB_e Resignation or Senator Tuos-. As.—‘‘ Lam informed,’ says the Sacramen. to correspondent of the San Francisco Times, “that the Hon. Phil. Thomas, of Placer, contemplates resigning on the 20th of March. His seatis claimed by Mr. Higgins, Republican; though I am not advised that any actual contest for it has commenced. But the intended resignation of the connection with the dis. pute concerning his seat. It is alleged . which I found dangling by a lomg string in the saloon of A. R. Jenkins. It is truly a lamentable waste of the raw material. To what good use it may be applied Lam ata logs to say. It is certainly not a Directory in any rational senso. When I became a patron of the thing, I supposed it was to be gotten up in a shape useful as a work of reference, but I find so much left out and the remainder so badly spelled as to . be unreliable, that the book is comparatively A good Directory would be of little . consequence to our citizens who know where worthless. every body lives in a small town like this, and . a stranger can certainly make no use of a poor Directory which does not have a map of the . streets. accompanying it, that he may know} where to look for a street in the absence of any signs tipo the corner. Nevada has no such signs, and of course, the stranger is obliged to inquire the street, and while he is about it, he may as well inquire the way tothe spot he secks. Our streets are not su long but the most remote . houses may be pointed out or described so as to be easily seen or found by any but a blind man. . Schemes like this to raiso the wind den’t suit . Yours, Nevapa, March 5, 1861. me. Union Batt at Nortu San Jvayx.—The! ball at North San Juan on Monday evening . was immensely attended. A perfect jam _testified to the almost unanimous Union sentiment . of that glorious mountain village. Slavery in Russia ended on last New Year's . day. The serfs, 40,000,000 in number, were then to be freed. A Hove 1x tre Sux.—John Mitchell writes to . the Charleston Mercury from Paris : There is hardly daylight enough to read, but only the kind of ghastly twilight which teems with gloomy images. I walk moodily along the quays, and almost fear to enterthe broad shadow . of Notre Dame. In the Korgue two corpses lie . stark. Men say here that something is the eause of the cold, wot tummer and autumn; they say that there isa hole in that luminary (am trou) which was well enough known befers . —but that ithas grown larger of late, and is now a pit of chasm vast enough for so small a} ball as our earth to roll about in it, like a single pill in a pill box; and that so the seasons are altered and ruined forever. The vintage has been both small and bad; and what is worst of all, come news from the Rhone region, and the wines of this year, which were clearing in the casks, quite as usual, have undergone a second fermentation during the late unnaturally warm and damp weather. Everything goes wrong: men’s blood and brain ferment, also, unwholesomely ; and it is generally thought that all will explode together, somewhere about the first of April. Tar New Mexican Governwent.—The Alta has the following intelligence coneerning the new Mexican administration : Official dispatches state that President Juarez arrived at the city of Mexico on the 12th ult., and immediately organized the following Cabi net, Min‘ster of State and Treasury, Ocampo; Minister of War, Gen. Gonzales Otega} Minister of the Interior, Gen. Llave ; Minister of Justice, Fuente ; Minister of Internal Improvements, Emparan. The first decree of the new Goverr. ment, was for the expulsion of the Spanish Minister, Pacheco, Barrico, the Gautemalan Minis. ter, and Clementi, the Pope’s Nuncio, charged with intriguing with the Church Party for the renewal of civil wars. The British Minister, Matthew Frereh, Minister Saligny, and the Prussian Minister, Wagner, expressed their readiness to recognize the Liberal Government as the only Government of Mexico. Tue Berpec. wovse, No. 21 Broad street N. ¥., was sold at auction, a short time since’ for $17,000.

Shudderingly we read it; for it freshens the memory of a scald which once freshened our legs—by removing a neat pair of socks with toe-nails on the outer points.

This outrage wads borne in silence during the sacred hours of the Sabbath day and night, but early on Monday morning . our citizens were startled by the report of cannon, fired in quick succession. On inquiry, it was ascertained that a company of jolly tars had recaptured the fort, shot down the Palmetto flag, trampled it in the dust, and ran up the stars and stripes in its place. Forthwith, the national ensign was floating every masthead in the port, and we had general rejoicing on the occasion.— Washington (N. N.) Dispatch, of Jan. 29th. Ir 18 HER#.—Spring is upon us. The ‘universal air’ is begining to be burdened with its odors. The citizens of Marysville have scented its coming from afar off and their spirits are rejoicing. In front of ¢very house in town may be seen at least a half a dozen ‘ phare phemales,’ clad all in odious shakers and soiled gloves, tearing up by the roots of sundry cherished shrubs and plants with apparently as little compunction as they tear out a fellow’s heart, sometimes.
