Established in April 1851, THE WEEKLY WEVADA JOURNAL. By N. P. BROWN & Co. MAIN STREET. es THE NEVADA JOURNAL commenced its sixth yearly volume on the 2lst day of April, 1856, under the most favorable auspices. Since the period of its establishment in 1851, it has steadily and rapidly advanced in publie favor, nutil it has secured a patronage at once large and diffuse.

Immediately after the fire the proprietors replaced their establishment in a better style than ever, and are prepared to sustain the JouRNAL in its original popularity and value.

September to us is suggestive of nut-days, while August brings to our mind the pleasing reminisences of “vacation time,” when leaying the crowded and dusty cities, fleeing from the frowns of professors, bidding adieu to the dark walls of our Alma Mater, we hurried away for the great homes of our “country cousins,” to gather a new stock of health and spirit, forget our cares and toils amidst the simple but innocent pleasures of “ye honest yeomen.” When we were young, we loved the bustling city, its erowds and busy life, and the daily conflict with our fellow men, which so happily brighten the wit, and aids in cultivating and polishing the mind, nerving it for determined action, and furnishing daily new lessons in the great study of human nature, without which, no man can gain new . laurels on the tented field, “command ? listening senates,” awake the latent ¢ec] D> nius of the world, sway the masses, and . originate and bring to successful issue those great projects that are every day startling the world, and serving to forshadow our destiny. We love the great cities yet; they have great dignity about them. They seem to be imbued with the spirit of foree—physical forece—irresistible, agt=) gressive, mental force. The compre. hension of a city is vast; even like a spirit brooding over great mysteries.— . It is grand and inspiring to contemplate a vast city, where thousands and thousands and thousands of sentient beings, busy, active, thinking souls, are all moving and marching onward, onward, onward. Heavy and measureless is their . tramp, so solemn and firm seems their tread, you almost wonder they do not shake the earth. There intellect is found; great souls; all the appliances of . science; a.) the ready means of education; all the aids in elevating and improving the mind. zs strength. We said we once loved the city; but we gathered a new love for the country. Cowper savs: “God made the country, man made the town.” God did make the country. He seems to reign in the country. Ife seems to live and breathe in the solemn air. He impresses Himself upon the healthful vegetation. His presence covers the grand old moaning forests, whose tree-tops scem to intersect the lowering clouds; and when God sits upon the wind that wrestles with the trees, how grand, how wild is the poetry of their motion; so majestic, you almost think those swaying branches are the arms of the great Creator. He kisses the modest violet, so small, so tender. He loves the blushing rose, the heavenhued blue-bells, and woodbine, so sweet, so eloquent. We love these things, for God did make the country. We love them for they seem to come direct . from Hishand. Reader, doyou remember the summer day, when mowing the hay the thunder storm came upon you? As drop after drop comes, but only at intervals, you let fall the implements of husbandry, and fly for shelter under the old oak or sycamore. Here comes the grand old monarch, rain. Closer and closer comes the white mist in the east, until drop, drop, drop, the heavy rain isupon you. Perhaps, reader, you were a bare toed boy, and essayed with tiny foot to confine the little streams, which, soon surmounting the small dams, went rejoicing on their way adown the slope. The thunder in the country peels most There indeed union loudly; the lightning is mest vivid and terrific. God’s majesty and power is most manifested in the country. God does speak in the country. Now the clouds have cleared away, and the setting sun, tinging the west with a halo of glory, just peers over the hill, shines in many a happy country home. How sweet the air, laden with the perfume of the new mown hay; how melodious the evening songs of the feathered warblers; for God made birds to sing as sweet as Jinny Lind; how fresh and green the springing grass; how frisky ; the young colt; even old Carlo shakes his woolly hide; all nature seems full of love, and you are led to think of the great Lover of all. Oh! God does speak in the country. And bonny lassie, do you mind of the babbling brook; where you waded many a day, and sailed your tiny boats, and stood upon the bank and watched their perilous voyage adown the rapids ? The brook that through the vale, so amorous, wandered here and there, as if loth to leave the enchanted spot, and shrinking from the embraces of the dark, cold, rolling river? The brook, so pure, where you picked the pebbles smooth, and perchance in innocence, many a time wondered if brooks hid no diamonds, so bright, so clear, was all the shining stones; little thinking, gentle heart, that you had a diamond beneath your breast, which though yet unpolished, flashed in its Varying rays from beneath the dark drooping silken curtains of your eyes — Oh! God does speak in the country. There is a solemn stillness in the eountry air, a quiet peace; so like the christian’s rest. If there is a voice in silence, how deep, how eloquent with love is the silence of the country. In this impressive silenee God does speak. Reader, forgive us. All this comes of boyhood days, of August, and of home. M. >The following items we find in the New York Hera/d, of August 9th : The Mobile Advertiser of July collects extracts from Fillmore papers in the slave States, which show that the Fillmore menare full of confidence. In Tennessee, the Memphis Banzer deseribes the prospects as “beautiful ;” in North Carolina, the Whig and American prospects are “br 4 9° 23; in Georgia, the Augusta Chronicle says :—‘Everything tends to convince us that Fillmore will carry Georgia by a sweeping majority if his friends but do their duty.” In Alabama, the Advertiser declares that “the good work is going forward nobly. Onr interior exchanges come freighted with good tidings, showing clearly that the right spirit is prevailing. Our most eloquent speakersare in the field : Jere Clemens, Judge Wallace, Hilliard, Chilton, Parsons, Watts, Gilchrist, and a host of others ; and the fortress of Alabama anti-Americanism alrea dy trembles forits security. The Albany speecl of Fillmore and Buchanan's acceptance, and the Sanford letter, are fast doing the business for the bachelor of Wheatland in Alabama.” In Florida, “the canvass” is progressing finely. The Cleveland (Ohio) Courier, a German Buchanan paper, has been discon tinued for want of patronage, the Germans in that quarter ali going for Fremont. The Cincinnati Volksfreund has thus been left the only German daily in all Ohio that supports Buchanan. All the others go for the Pathfinder of the Rocky Mountains. The Fillmore Know Nothings of Masschusetts, have postponed their State Nominating Convention from the 6th of August to the 20th, on aceount of the meeting of the Know Nothing State Council on the 5th. It will be held on the 20th, in the Music Hall, in Boston, and the callis extended to all supporters of Fillmore and Donelson. whether Know Nothings or not. Couusa Frre—The Marysville Herald learns from Mr. Smith, of Rowe & Co.’s Circus, that the fire caught in MeKilton’s stable, opposite the American House. The following is a list of the buildings consumed, as furnished us by Mr. Fitch, driver of the Colusa stage: Booksin & Tozer, wagon makers, &c.; Frank’s Saloon; a building owned by J H. Lyman, occupied as a lawyer’s office; Peter Van Ness’ store; Case & Wares’ store; Dunlap & Suydam’s store; a barber’s shop; the drug store of Mr. Woods; the store of Charles Spalding, forwarding merchant; the store of Minor & Janes, forwarding merchants, together with nearly 100 tons of freight; Dr. Barnett’s house and office; the Gem Saloon; John Clark’s Bakery; Wm.Riley’s blacksmith shop; George Ware & Co.s meat market; Geo. Wallace & Bro.’s hay yard; wagon-maker’s shop of Smith & Hadley; Mr. Chapman’s house and stable; some thirty-three or thirty-four horses and mules, and some ecightor ten wagons, some of them loaded with freight, were also consumed, together with some four or five small frame dwelling houses. Mr. Thos. King, Editor of the Bullentiu,.and Mr. A. A. Cohen had a col. lision at the County Jail yesterday. The latter has been confined there several months. It seems Mr. King had been at the jail ona visit to Messrs. Durkee and Rand, and when about leaving it, he met Cohen in the corridor; in passing, they touched each other. One statement has it that the collision was intentional on Mr. King’s part; another says Mr K. stepped close to the wall toavoid touching, and it was intentional on Mr. C.’s part. Words ensued, and Mr. C. applied some severe terms to Mr. K. for insulting him, and Mr. K. is said to have taunted Mr. C. As Mr. King was about passing out—the turnkey opening the door—Mr. C. kicked him severely, which compliment Mr. King returned with interest before Mr. C. could be removed from his reach. Cominc Back.—Ex-Governor Bigler was at New York at the last dates, He was to have taken passage home on the steamer of the 6th September. I. C. Woods was in New York on the departure of the Nicaragua steamer, and had expressed his intention of returning to San Francisco. It is reported that our whole Congressional delegation had secured passage in the steamer which was to leave New York on the 20th of August. Speaking of the family jars now dail occurring among the Unterrified, the State Journal says: “The more excitement there is in the primary contests, the better.” The editor would be highly pleased, then with “the primary contests” in this county: and ’*twould be like new marrow in his bones, for him to have had a peep into the County Convention, yesterday.— Coloma Argus, 6th inst.

Besides this, I feel inadequate to the labors of a canvass over the State, conducted with the ordinary diligence and spirit which have characterized our past contests. These pleas have availed me hitherto, against any formal connection with the electoral ticket. I might repose upon them now, and would be perfectly justifiable in declining the position offered me. Under ordinary circumstances I certainly would do so— But this is my country, and will be the country of my children after me. And if I have not over-estimated the evils that now afflict it, every manis called upon to contribute his share to the public service. Never, in any period of our history, has our government been worse condueted than during the present administration. From a state of profound repose, both in its foreign and domestic relations, it has become an object of hatred and a by-word among the nations. We could, at this moment, reckon upon the countenance and favor of very few among the nations of the earth, while we are in constant danger of a breach with more than one. But evils of this description are nothing compaared to those of an internal character. It was reserved to this generation and to this year to witness the first instance of civil war in our midst. The spectacle is before our eyes. The infernal din has been heard. Fraternal blood has been shed by fraternal hands, and the strife still goes on. Those who are in the possession of power were bound by every consideration to use it, if they could not prevent such a conflict, but they seem either to be indifferent, or to be under the dominion of some unaccountable fatality. Better for our institutions and for the destiny of human liberty, that our whole sea coast were occupied by a foreign enemy, than that there should be one drop of blood shed in acivil quarrel. We could repel any foreign enemy and repair his devastations, and profit by the moral benefits of the victory. But what power, what valor can repair sectional breaches when once consummated ? Who can wipe out the stain of fratricide? The chapter that records it will be black and loathsome, but it must go down and stand forever a disgrace to us and our country, and to the cause of popular liberty. It will not do to say that these things came of themselves, that they were unavoidable. They had an origin, and that origin is to be found in an intermeddling with the question of slayery, uncalled for by an exigency of the country. Under the compromise of 1850, the different sections of the Union that had been arrayed in fierce antagonism, were rapidly returning to a state of harmony. Seldom has the heart of the nation beat freer or stronger than under the hallowed influences of those healing measures of 1850. ‘The Union seemed to acquire new strength and new lease of duration. But this was not enough for those in power. They deliberately reopened the sources of agitation, and from that hour to this the tendency has been to promote a war of sections. Heart burnings, civil strife and imminent danger to the Union, have been the first fruits of their legislation. Admitting the abstract justice of the main principles of the Kansas and Nebraska act, they are not new in the great South, nor were they new in the Union at large prior to the Missouri Compromise in 1820. That measure was resorted to as a necessity to save the Union. It performed that office then and since until 1854. The country, both North and South, had reposed upon it for thirty-four years. The interests of the South had not suffered by it. The opinions and prejudices of the North were respected by it. It might have stood for centuries, as a monument of the patriotism which enacted it, a boundary between slavery and anti-slavery until every hill and valley to the shores of the Pacific should have felt the pressure and acknowledged the dominion of our advancing population, and until superior wisdom, a nobler spirit of tolerotion and a deeper love of Union should have obliterated the traces and even the) memories of former discord. And what have we gained by the change? Nothing. What are we to gain for the future? Nothing. It will not make a single slave State. It will not prevent a single one from being free. What has it cost? A fearful alienation of feeling between the North and South, crimination and re-crimination — bitter, unwarrantable denunciations of men and sections, uttered in high places, followed. by personal assaults. And finally and) chiefly, it cost a civil war. ‘ Who can contemplate the spectacl before us without a feeling of shame and pres aap ? What will the world think of the reckless career we are now) running ?

September to us is suggestive of nut-days, while August brings to our mind the pleasing reminisences of “vacation time,” when leaying the crowded and dusty cities, fleeing from the frowns of professors, bidding adieu to the dark walls of our Alma Mater, we hurried away for the great homes of our “country cousins,” to gather a new stock of health and spirit, forget our cares and toils amidst the simple but innocent pleasures of “ye honest yeomen.” When we were young, we loved the bustling city, its erowds and busy life, and the daily conflict with our fellow men, which so happily brighten the wit, and aids in cultivating and polishing the mind, nerving it for determined action, and furnishing daily new lessons in the great study of human nature, without which, no man can gain new . laurels on the tented field, “command ? listening senates,” awake the latent ¢ec] D> nius of the world, sway the masses, and . originate and bring to successful issue those great projects that are every day startling the world, and serving to forshadow our destiny. We love the great cities yet; they have great dignity about them. They seem to be imbued with the spirit of foree—physical forece—irresistible, agt=) gressive, mental force. The compre. hension of a city is vast; even like a spirit brooding over great mysteries.— . It is grand and inspiring to contemplate a vast city, where thousands and thousands and thousands of sentient beings, busy, active, thinking souls, are all moving and marching onward, onward, onward. Heavy and measureless is their . tramp, so solemn and firm seems their tread, you almost wonder they do not shake the earth. There intellect is found; great souls; all the appliances of . science; a.) the ready means of education; all the aids in elevating and improving the mind. zs strength. We said we once loved the city; but we gathered a new love for the country. Cowper savs: “God made the country, man made the town.” God did make the country. He seems to reign in the country. Ife seems to live and breathe in the solemn air. He impresses Himself upon the healthful vegetation. His presence covers the grand old moaning forests, whose tree-tops scem to intersect the lowering clouds; and when God sits upon the wind that wrestles with the trees, how grand, how wild is the poetry of their motion; so majestic, you almost think those swaying branches are the arms of the great Creator. He kisses the modest violet, so small, so tender. He loves the blushing rose, the heavenhued blue-bells, and woodbine, so sweet, so eloquent. We love these things, for God did make the country. We love them for they seem to come direct . from Hishand. Reader, doyou remember the summer day, when mowing the hay the thunder storm came upon you? As drop after drop comes, but only at intervals, you let fall the implements of husbandry, and fly for shelter under the old oak or sycamore. Here comes the grand old monarch, rain. Closer and closer comes the white mist in the east, until drop, drop, drop, the heavy rain isupon you. Perhaps, reader, you were a bare toed boy, and essayed with tiny foot to confine the little streams, which, soon surmounting the small dams, went rejoicing on their way adown the slope. The thunder in the country peels most There indeed union loudly; the lightning is mest vivid and terrific. God’s majesty and power is most manifested in the country. God does speak in the country. Now the clouds have cleared away, and the setting sun, tinging the west with a halo of glory, just peers over the hill, shines in many a happy country home. How sweet the air, laden with the perfume of the new mown hay; how melodious the evening songs of the feathered warblers; for God made birds to sing as sweet as Jinny Lind; how fresh and green the springing grass; how frisky ; the young colt; even old Carlo shakes his woolly hide; all nature seems full of love, and you are led to think of the great Lover of all. Oh! God does speak in the country. And bonny lassie, do you mind of the babbling brook; where you waded many a day, and sailed your tiny boats, and stood upon the bank and watched their perilous voyage adown the rapids ? The brook that through the vale, so amorous, wandered here and there, as if loth to leave the enchanted spot, and shrinking from the embraces of the dark, cold, rolling river? The brook, so pure, where you picked the pebbles smooth, and perchance in innocence, many a time wondered if brooks hid no diamonds, so bright, so clear, was all the shining stones; little thinking, gentle heart, that you had a diamond beneath your breast, which though yet unpolished, flashed in its Varying rays from beneath the dark drooping silken curtains of your eyes — Oh! God does speak in the country. There is a solemn stillness in the eountry air, a quiet peace; so like the christian’s rest. If there is a voice in silence, how deep, how eloquent with love is the silence of the country. In this impressive silenee God does speak. Reader, forgive us. All this comes of boyhood days, of August, and of home. M. >The following items we find in the New York Hera/d, of August 9th : The Mobile Advertiser of July collects extracts from Fillmore papers in the slave States, which show that the Fillmore menare full of confidence. In Tennessee, the Memphis Banzer deseribes the prospects as “beautiful ;” in North Carolina, the Whig and American prospects are “br 4 9° 23; in Georgia, the Augusta Chronicle says :—‘Everything tends to convince us that Fillmore will carry Georgia by a sweeping majority if his friends but do their duty.” In Alabama, the Advertiser declares that “the good work is going forward nobly. Onr interior exchanges come freighted with good tidings, showing clearly that the right spirit is prevailing. Our most eloquent speakersare in the field : Jere Clemens, Judge Wallace, Hilliard, Chilton, Parsons, Watts, Gilchrist, and a host of others ; and the fortress of Alabama anti-Americanism alrea dy trembles forits security.

The Cleveland (Ohio) Courier, a German Buchanan paper, has been discon tinued for want of patronage, the Germans in that quarter ali going for Fremont. The Cincinnati Volksfreund has thus been left the only German daily in all Ohio that supports Buchanan. All the others go for the Pathfinder of the Rocky Mountains. The Fillmore Know Nothings of Masschusetts, have postponed their State Nominating Convention from the 6th of August to the 20th, on aceount of the meeting of the Know Nothing State Council on the 5th.

Couusa Frre—The Marysville Herald learns from Mr. Smith, of Rowe & Co.’s Circus, that the fire caught in MeKilton’s stable, opposite the American House. The following is a list of the buildings consumed, as furnished us by Mr. Fitch, driver of the Colusa stage: Booksin & Tozer, wagon makers, &c.; Frank’s Saloon; a building owned by J H.

Mr. Thos. King, Editor of the Bullentiu,.and Mr. A. A. Cohen had a col. lision at the County Jail yesterday. The latter has been confined there several months. It seems Mr. King had been at the jail ona visit to Messrs. Durkee and Rand, and when about leaving it, he met Cohen in the corridor; in passing, they touched each other. One statement has it that the collision was intentional on Mr. King’s part; another says Mr K. stepped close to the wall toavoid touching, and it was intentional on Mr. C.’s part. Words ensued, and Mr. C. applied some severe terms to Mr. K. for insulting him, and Mr. K. is said to have taunted Mr. C. As Mr. King was about passing out—the turnkey opening the door—Mr. C. kicked him severely, which compliment Mr. King returned with interest before Mr. C. could be removed from his reach.

It is reported that our whole Congressional delegation had secured passage in the steamer which was to leave New York on the 20th of August. Speaking of the family jars now dail occurring among the Unterrified, the State Journal says: “The more excitement there is in the primary contests, the better.” The editor would be highly pleased, then with “the primary contests” in this county: and ’*twould be like new marrow in his bones, for him to have had a peep into the County Convention, yesterday.— Coloma Argus, 6th inst.

NASHVILLE, June 26, 1856. . the means of judging of our folly — Men of extreme opinions on both sides of the Union, are pressing their theories with a vehemence anda spirit of intolerance, that acknowledges no compromise, while moderate men, national men, who see in the wide scope of their country and in the visions of glory and happi ness that loom up in its future, something else to prompt their toils and move their aspirations, besides slavery or anti-sla very, are denounced as tame submis sionists, untrue to the North or to the Dear Sim: Your favor of the 14th.

The party in power have proved then cerely regret that the choice had not incompetency ‘o administer the goverr fallen on some one else Compelled, from a sense of duty to my private interests, to prosecute my profession, and tired of political strife, it was my settled purpose never again to participate inthe toils or the honors incident to public station. Besides this, I feel inadequate to the labors of a canvass over the State, conducted with the ordinary diligence and spirit which have characterized our past contests. These pleas have availed me hitherto, against any formal connection with the electoral ticket. I might repose upon them now, and would be perfectly justifiable in declining the position offered me. Under ordinary circumstances I certainly would do so— But this is my country, and will be the country of my children after me. And if I have not over-estimated the evils that now afflict it, every manis called upon to contribute his share to the public service. Never, in any period of our history, has our government been worse condueted than during the present administration. From a state of profound repose, both in its foreign and domestic relations, it has become an object of hatred and a by-word among the nations. We could, at this moment, reckon upon the countenance and favor of very few among the nations of the earth, while we are in constant danger of a breach with more than one. But evils of this description are nothing compaared to those of an internal character. It was reserved to this generation and to this year to witness the first instance of civil war in our midst. The spectacle is before our eyes. The infernal din has been heard. Fraternal blood has been shed by fraternal hands, and the strife still goes on. Those who are in the possession of power were bound by every consideration to use it, if they could not prevent such a conflict, but they seem either to be indifferent, or to be under the dominion of some unaccountable fatality. Better for our institutions and for the destiny of human liberty, that our whole sea coast were occupied by a foreign enemy, than that there should be one drop of blood shed in acivil quarrel. We could repel any foreign enemy and repair his devastations, and profit by the moral benefits of the victory. But what power, what valor can repair sectional breaches when once consummated ? Who can wipe out the stain of fratricide? The chapter that records it will be black and loathsome, but it must go down and stand forever a disgrace to us and our country, and to the cause of popular liberty. It will not do to say that these things came of themselves, that they were unavoidable. They had an origin, and that origin is to be found in an intermeddling with the question of slayery, uncalled for by an exigency of the country. Under the compromise of 1850, the different sections of the Union that had been arrayed in fierce antagonism, were rapidly returning to a state of harmony. Seldom has the heart of the nation beat freer or stronger than under the hallowed influences of those healing measures of 1850. ‘The Union seemed to acquire new strength and new lease of duration. But this was not enough for those in power. They deliberately reopened the sources of agitation, and from that hour to this the tendency has been to promote a war of sections. Heart burnings, civil strife and imminent danger to the Union, have been the first fruits of their legislation. Admitting the abstract justice of the main principles of the Kansas and Nebraska act, they are not new in the great South, nor were they new in the Union at large prior to the Missouri Compromise in 1820. That measure was resorted to as a necessity to save the Union. It performed that office then and since until 1854. The country, both North and South, had reposed upon it for thirty-four years. The interests of the South had not suffered by it. The opinions and prejudices of the North were respected by it. It might have stood for centuries, as a monument of the patriotism which enacted it, a boundary between slavery and anti-slavery until every hill and valley to the shores of the Pacific should have felt the pressure and acknowledged the dominion of our advancing population, and until superior wisdom, a nobler spirit of tolerotion and a deeper love of Union should have obliterated the traces and even the) memories of former discord. And what have we gained by the change? Nothing. What are we to gain for the future? Nothing. It will not make a single slave State. It will not prevent a single one from being free. What has it cost? A fearful alienation of feeling between the North and South, crimination and re-crimination — bitter, unwarrantable denunciations of men and sections, uttered in high places, followed. by personal assaults. And finally and) chiefly, it cost a civil war. ‘ Who can contemplate the spectacl before us without a feeling of shame and pres aap ?
