The tents and rude cabins of the miners give perfect madness to attempt such an enterprise, when we know full well that we cannot complete it. Therefore, I likewise say, sir, it is impossible to have these works, Quite a number of the people run away with the idea, that a Fire Department would be useless in this city; they say: What could Fire Engines have done towards arresting the late disastrous conflagration? let me ask them, how is it they are of such service elsewhere ? Why sir, I say, without fear of contradiction, that thousands of dollars worth of property could have been saved. A Fire Engine at the junction of Pine and Broad streets, could easily have prevented the terrific destroyer from running up Broad street at any rate. With another, the Court House and several adjacent buildings, might have been saved. By saving the Court House alone, the County would have been spared the loss of $20,000 worth of property, to say nothing of the Records and public documents, together with the private property which was consumed. All this they could have done, and more—then how can they reconcile it with their consciences, to say a Fire Department would have been useleas ? In addition to the building of the cistern at the junction of Main and Commercial Streets out of their own pockets, I hear from the very best authority, that at their last meeting, knowing that the money for the payment of the first installment (according to bargain) must be forth coming by the 13th Dec., or they would be unable to purchase the Engine they have bargained for, which is the best second hand Engine in the State, and finding that the people of Neva. da showed so lukewarm a spirit in the cause, they by vote, imposeda tax of $10, on each Our returns of the Election yesterday, owing to stormy weather and the derangement of ‘the lines south and west are not so full as was anticipated, but enough is known to indicate the A place to flashy stores and handsome residen Tolade-forty lxes Jon. » be Real estate ons up.

The “The Great Result. ‘That the choice of the people of the whole country has fallen upon the nominees of the Democratic party, James Buchanan and John ©. Breckinridge, there isno longer room for doubt. Gratifying as this result must be to every conservative and national man in the Uniou, it. is still more gratifying to reflect that this re) sult has been the work of every section of the Union: By the side of Pennsylvania, of the Northern States, stands New Jersey, Indiana, _ California.and perhaps Illinois, firm in the cause of Democracy, and in their devotion to the Union: In our estimate below, we have given ‘both Maryland and Louisiana to Mr. Fillmore, yet we hazard nothing in saying, that had bis _ friends in those States made the same issue up.on the Kansas Nebraska bill, which'was made in the State of California, both of those States would have gone for Mr. Buchanan by majorities that would confound the Arithmetician.— The adhesion of these additional Northern States to Democracy, leaves no room for those who would have been disposed to cavil at the position of Pennsylvania. That State pride, as it is denominated, did much for Buchanan in his ‘own State it may be true. In honoring her groat son, she has done honor to herself. Bat beyond this; in New Jersey; Indiana and California, where no such influence could operate the power of the Democracy has triumphed upon those liberal principles of government which has marked it out for the popular regard. The following table will show the result in the electoral college, giving every doubtful State reported by the Steamer news, either to Fillmore or Fremont. Buchanan. Fillmore. Fremont, lightened and liberal age, prevailed in bringing about the abolishment of imprisonment in case of debt, perhaps applies with as much force to the action and proceeding against property. It is true that in that against the person, there was something more abhorrent to our senses in depriving a man of his liberty, atthe pleasure of his creditor—when it might be impossible for the debtor to pay—but no argument addressed itself to the understandings of men with greater power, than that, by imprisoning a man, he was deprived of every possible. means whereby to meet his liabilities. Men of business as well as professional men, are beginning to realize in the practical working of our attachment law as it now exists, the same objectionable feature, and agree generally, that it is not only in many cases an engine of oppression, but also as unwise and impolitic in its operarations upon. the interests of society. Take a case which has been repeated a hundred times within the knowledge of most of us. A merchant or trader in the mountains, although he may bave conducted business for a long period with the utmost propriety, is subject at any moment, at the caprice of any one of his creditors, to be broken up, and the fruits of years of toil stripped from him. Perhaps the season is a bad one for business. Some one of his creditors becomes alarmed—at least, he knows that the first to bring suit and attach the property is safe fur his claim. It thus operates as a bribe to every creditor, to be most prompt in taking advantage of it. Besides, the moment one attachment has been levied, it becomes known to the other creditors, and then commences a race between them, which shallcome next in order in securing themselves.

The Merchant of Venice was produced on the occasion, to a full house—a large number of ladies being present. The acting, generally, in this difficult play, considering the disadvantages of itsproduction by a newly organized company, without the opportunity of a thorough rehersal was handsome, and in some parts highly effective, Mr. Warwick, long and favorably known on the Nevada boards, in the character of Shylock, played with exceeding good judgement and propriety. Of Miss Demiug’s Portia, we cannot say that we were greatly pleased. We have seen her in a differant line of cheracter, when. we might w ell have afforded to praise her. Mr. Rand, in Bassanio did his part well, while Mr. McGowan seemed at home in the gay and sprightly character of Gatiano. The Widow’s Victim, the after piece, was decidedly a rich treat, and kept the risibles of the audience in full exercise to the close of the piece. We can scarcely be invidious. where each part was so admirably played; yet we are doing no injustice to others in speaking of the exquisite humor and vivacity of Mrs. Leonard, who prom‘ises to make a great favorite in our midst.

The less legislation we have upon these intercommercial affairs, the better it is for the common welfare, Let the trade and traffic of men, . .on., rest alone upon the social laws, upon the confidence of men with each other, upon mutual interest and the economy which pertains to it and then it has a more solid basis than can be . to the public, supplied by the artificial restrictions devised by . this subject we desire to say, that in the praise ‘ that we may have heretofore awarded the late We do not propose entirely to abolish this . Roara of Supervisors for the management of our county finances, we had referance only to their expenditures, which we. still believe to have been made with commendable economy, One whether against the person or . thing in their conduct, however, is to us inexplicable, and that is that they should have allowed the late Sheriff, in defiance of the plain , provisions of the law, to withold the money of its operation is! the county from the Treasurer, with whom he was required to account monthly. In this respect they violated their plain duty to the public, for which they deserve the severest reprehension. It is to be seen what action will be taken by the proper officers in pursuance of the order process, We take it that the reasoning which enforces and sustains arrest is applicable to that of attachment. We would make their proproperty. It should cover the case of fraud done or intended, or of a debtor having or intending to abscond.

The election passed off quietly. The returns indicate Democratic success in Cincinnati by aslightly increased majority over the State election. Mary.Lanp.—In 11 counties, Fillmore has 8,163 majority over Buchanan, Virarnta.—It is useless to give the telegraphic returns from this State. The majority for Buchanan will be large.

Sour caroiina.—-The Legislature to-day elected Electors under instructions to vote for James Buchanan for President. Groreia.—The returns from this State give large Democratic gains. They will probably carry the State by 15,000 majority. Ten counties, for instance, give Buchanan 2050 majority, being a Democratic gain of 1500. A heavy rain storm prevailed generally throughout the State and in consequence a decreased vote was polled. The returns from scattering precincts, indicate about the same Democratic majorities as lost year, ALabaMA,—The returns as they come in show small Democratic gains. The city of Mobile gave 159 majority for Fillmore. Lovisana.—New Orleans, Nov. 5th. The returns from the country parishes show steady under his charge two young girls named Ran. dolph and Litton, His theatrical career was terminated rather against his inclinations, as will be seen by the following from the Yreka Union: The theatrical troupe, known as the Misses . Randolph and Litton, have been greeted nightly with crowded houses, The parents of these girls, . or rather children, have just arrived here in order to reclaim them, as is stated, from the pro. tection of a man known as Mr. Browder. “We have been called on to place before the public the position of the parties, aud have had a conversation with these young girls, who state that they were inveigled away from their parents by false representations, made to them by Browder. . They also state that they have been infuenccd by fears and threats to adopt the course which they have taken, orrather forecd to take, in leaving their parents, They have a strong desire to remain with their parents, and express abhorrence at the idea of remaining under the pupilage or protection of Mr. Browder. * * * They also say ordinarily they have not been badly treated, but have occasionally been harshly used and were subject to improper words and language being expressed in their presence. Both the young ladies are between ten and twelve years of age. On Tuesday evening, several of our young . men, on learning the circumstances in relation to the above named children, met together for the purpose of inflicting summary punishment on Mr. Browder, At half-past ten o'clock, they proceeded to the U.S. Hotel, and suposing. him to be a desperate character, two or three per. sons entered his room very cautiously and seeured him. On bringing him up the street, the crowd was stopped in front of this oflice by officer Kershaw, who took him in custody, and lodged him in jail, The crowd, numbering about seventy-five persons, soon dispersed, and felt greatly mortified by the interferance of Mr. . Kershaw. About an hour later, no complaint having been made against him, he was released from custody. The boys soon heard of it, and again fastened on him. He was much frightened andjimplored most piteously for mercy, showing no resistance. Variousthreats were indulged in for the purpose of frightening him, while escerting him to the upper end of the town, where they concluded the ceremony by administering a coat of tar and feathers, and advising him to . leave this section of country. He made tracks in quick time, and at last accounts was said to be on his way to Oregon, We have no doubt, from our information that this man has acted most inhumanly and brutal, and deserved punishment; but if what is stated can be proven, we think the law could more effectually punish and keep him shut of the cominunity, ens ae eee ee Denvistry.—The fact that the human teeth in the mining region, are more subject to disease and decay than in other regions, although unac. counted for, yet is well attested by observation.

The tents and rude cabins of the miners give perfect madness to attempt such an enterprise, when we know full well that we cannot complete it. Therefore, I likewise say, sir, it is impossible to have these works, Quite a number of the people run away with the idea, that a Fire Department would be useless in this city; they say: What could Fire Engines have done towards arresting the late disastrous conflagration? let me ask them, how is it they are of such service elsewhere ? Why sir, I say, without fear of contradiction, that thousands of dollars worth of property could have been saved. A Fire Engine at the junction of Pine and Broad streets, could easily have prevented the terrific destroyer from running up Broad street at any rate. With another, the Court House and several adjacent buildings, might have been saved. By saving the Court House alone, the County would have been spared the loss of $20,000 worth of property, to say nothing of the Records and public documents, together with the private property which was consumed. All this they could have done, and more—then how can they reconcile it with their consciences, to say a Fire Department would have been useleas ? In addition to the building of the cistern at the junction of Main and Commercial Streets out of their own pockets, I hear from the very best authority, that at their last meeting, knowing that the money for the payment of the first installment (according to bargain) must be forth coming by the 13th Dec., or they would be unable to purchase the Engine they have bargained for, which is the best second hand Engine in the State, and finding that the people of Neva. da showed so lukewarm a spirit in the cause, they by vote, imposeda tax of $10, on each Our returns of the Election yesterday, owing to stormy weather and the derangement of ‘the lines south and west are not so full as was anticipated, but enough is known to indicate the A place to flashy stores and handsome residen Tolade-forty lxes Jon. » be Real estate ons up.

The “The Great Result. ‘That the choice of the people of the whole country has fallen upon the nominees of the Democratic party, James Buchanan and John ©. Breckinridge, there isno longer room for doubt. Gratifying as this result must be to every conservative and national man in the Uniou, it. is still more gratifying to reflect that this re) sult has been the work of every section of the Union: By the side of Pennsylvania, of the Northern States, stands New Jersey, Indiana, _ California.and perhaps Illinois, firm in the cause of Democracy, and in their devotion to the Union: In our estimate below, we have given ‘both Maryland and Louisiana to Mr. Fillmore, yet we hazard nothing in saying, that had bis _ friends in those States made the same issue up.on the Kansas Nebraska bill, which'was made in the State of California, both of those States would have gone for Mr. Buchanan by majorities that would confound the Arithmetician.— The adhesion of these additional Northern States to Democracy, leaves no room for those who would have been disposed to cavil at the position of Pennsylvania. That State pride, as it is denominated, did much for Buchanan in his ‘own State it may be true. In honoring her groat son, she has done honor to herself. Bat beyond this; in New Jersey; Indiana and California, where no such influence could operate the power of the Democracy has triumphed upon those liberal principles of government which has marked it out for the popular regard. The following table will show the result in the electoral college, giving every doubtful State reported by the Steamer news, either to Fillmore or Fremont. Buchanan. Fillmore. Fremont, lightened and liberal age, prevailed in bringing about the abolishment of imprisonment in case of debt, perhaps applies with as much force to the action and proceeding against property. It is true that in that against the person, there was something more abhorrent to our senses in depriving a man of his liberty, atthe pleasure of his creditor—when it might be impossible for the debtor to pay—but no argument addressed itself to the understandings of men with greater power, than that, by imprisoning a man, he was deprived of every possible. means whereby to meet his liabilities. Men of business as well as professional men, are beginning to realize in the practical working of our attachment law as it now exists, the same objectionable feature, and agree generally, that it is not only in many cases an engine of oppression, but also as unwise and impolitic in its operarations upon. the interests of society. Take a case which has been repeated a hundred times within the knowledge of most of us. A merchant or trader in the mountains, although he may bave conducted business for a long period with the utmost propriety, is subject at any moment, at the caprice of any one of his creditors, to be broken up, and the fruits of years of toil stripped from him. Perhaps the season is a bad one for business. Some one of his creditors becomes alarmed—at least, he knows that the first to bring suit and attach the property is safe fur his claim. It thus operates as a bribe to every creditor, to be most prompt in taking advantage of it. Besides, the moment one attachment has been levied, it becomes known to the other creditors, and then commences a race between them, which shallcome next in order in securing themselves.

Outo.— Cincinnati and seven townships in Hamilton county give Buchanan 14,213; Fremont 7,754; Fillmore, 4,849, As far as we can hear elsewhere, the vote does not essentially differ from that given in October. The election passed off quietly. The returns indicate Democratic success in Cincinnati by aslightly increased majority over the State election. Mary.Lanp.—In 11 counties, Fillmore has 8,163 majority over Buchanan, Virarnta.—It is useless to give the telegraphic returns from this State. The majority for Buchanan will be large.

The returns from the country parishes show steady under his charge two young girls named Ran. dolph and Litton, His theatrical career was terminated rather against his inclinations, as will be seen by the following from the Yreka Union: The theatrical troupe, known as the Misses . Randolph and Litton, have been greeted nightly with crowded houses, The parents of these girls, . or rather children, have just arrived here in order to reclaim them, as is stated, from the pro. tection of a man known as Mr. Browder. “We have been called on to place before the public the position of the parties, aud have had a conversation with these young girls, who state that they were inveigled away from their parents by false representations, made to them by Browder. . They also state that they have been infuenccd by fears and threats to adopt the course which they have taken, orrather forecd to take, in leaving their parents, They have a strong desire to remain with their parents, and express abhorrence at the idea of remaining under the pupilage or protection of Mr. Browder. * * * They also say ordinarily they have not been badly treated, but have occasionally been harshly used and were subject to improper words and language being expressed in their presence. Both the young ladies are between ten and twelve years of age. On Tuesday evening, several of our young . men, on learning the circumstances in relation to the above named children, met together for the purpose of inflicting summary punishment on Mr. Browder, At half-past ten o'clock, they proceeded to the U.S. Hotel, and suposing. him to be a desperate character, two or three per. sons entered his room very cautiously and seeured him. On bringing him up the street, the crowd was stopped in front of this oflice by officer Kershaw, who took him in custody, and lodged him in jail, The crowd, numbering about seventy-five persons, soon dispersed, and felt greatly mortified by the interferance of Mr. . Kershaw. About an hour later, no complaint having been made against him, he was released from custody. The boys soon heard of it, and again fastened on him. He was much frightened andjimplored most piteously for mercy, showing no resistance. Variousthreats were indulged in for the purpose of frightening him, while escerting him to the upper end of the town, where they concluded the ceremony by administering a coat of tar and feathers, and advising him to . leave this section of country. He made tracks in quick time, and at last accounts was said to be on his way to Oregon, We have no doubt, from our information that this man has acted most inhumanly and brutal, and deserved punishment; but if what is stated can be proven, we think the law could more effectually punish and keep him shut of the cominunity, ens ae eee ee Denvistry.—The fact that the human teeth in the mining region, are more subject to disease and decay than in other regions, although unac. counted for, yet is well attested by observation.
