Several others followed. At last, a young mule, carrying a portmanteau, with two large sacks of provisions, and many other things, in passing the bad point, struck his load against the rock, which knocked his two hind legs over the precipice, and loose stones immediately began to roll from under them. However, his fore legs were still upon the narrow path. He had no room to put his head there but he placed his nose on the path to his left, and appeared to bold on by his mouth, lis perilous fate was soon decided by a loose mule which came after him, and, knocking his comrade’s nose off the path, destroyed the balance, aud, heels over head the poor creature instantly commenced a fall which was_ really quitefterrific. With all his baggage firmly lash. cd to him, he rolled down the steep slope, until . he came to the part which was perpendicular ; and then, seeming to bound off, and turning around in the air, fell into the deep torrent on . his back, and instantly disappeared, I thought, of course, that he was killed; bat . he rose, appearing wild and scared, and immediately endeavored to stem the torrent which Tor a moment he succecded, but the eddy suddenly canght the great load on his back, and turued him completely over, Down went his head, with all his baggage, and he was carried down the stream, As suddenly, howeverhe came up again; but he was now weak, and went down the stream, turned around and around by the eddy, until, pass. ing the corner of the rock, I lost sight of him. I saw, however, the peons, with their lassoes in their hands, run down the side of the torrent . for some little distance; but they soon stopped, and, after looking towards the poor mule for some seconds, their earnest attitude gradually relaxed, aud when they walked’ towards me, J saw at a distance a solitary mule walking towards us. We instantly perceived that he was the same whose fall we had just witnessed, and in a few moments he came up to us to join his comrades. Dr Bares.—When this gentleman was elected to the office of Treasurer of State, the people seeemed to feel confident that we had at length secured the services of at least one officer, in whom dependence could be reposed, and it was with pain that we chronicled the. very graye charges which haye been recently brought against him. Even now, although everything looks so dark and suspicious, we cannot but indulge the hope, that he is not morally guilty of any overt acts of dishonesty, but we ave forced to the conclusion, that he bas been criminally negligent and ignorant of the duties of his office. Others, we think, have reaped the profit, whilst he has to endure the censure. We trust that in this opinion we may not be disappointed, and that the investigation of the charges against him may present his conduct in a light favorable at least to the honesty of his intentions. If such men as we have always believed Dr. Bates to be are not to be trusted: if the sight of gold can destroy moral principle in them, where can we hope for faithfulness ?— Whilst living with us, Dr. B. seemed to show a total disregard for gain, or he might have accumulated a handsome competency by his practice, but he was always lenient in his collections and the poor always commanded his services, as readily, and indeed more so, than the rich. He now lies under a grave charge, for malfeasance and embezzlement in office, and in this condition we cannot but drop a tear to the mem. ory of the past, and express the hope that he may convince the world that he is not criminal. —WShasta Courier. Tux Carrran or CutLe.—A_ correspondent of . the Bulletin writing from the capital of the Republic of Chile says ; Mint is very large, over 400 feet square, and chambers, Within the pastfew yyars they have . . have you how,’ said I, ‘now give ’em a sentiing of the Caucasian fortresses ; but the contest at Kars has proved beyond question that the Armenians will welcome the day which ranges them among the subjects of the Emperor of Russia. Yet these events, proximate as they seem, cannot be consumated without fresh contests, —. 2 Tur Girt ww Rep.—Cassius M. Clay tells the following: During the late political canvass, Burlingame and himself occapied ‘adjoining rooms at the Bates House, [ndianapolis. “At a late hour one evening,”’ says he, “I was in B's. Room and both of us were somewhat elated with the pop. mar enthusiasm. We were. as old soldiers are wont to do, fighting our battles over again, when a fine band right opposite my room poured o’er the sea of night floods of soul-stirring music. ‘Clay, you are honored,’ said B., ‘go and acknowledge the compliment.’ With due diffidence I excused mysilf; when, as I anticipated, the band broke forth anew in strains of heroic melody ia front of the room occupied by B. ‘1 ment.’ ‘No, you,’ said B, ‘Well,’ said T, ‘both together,’ so, lockiug arms, with an air of intense dignity, we-walked out upon the balcony, and in a faltering voice, I commenced: ‘Indiana, Massachusetts, and Kentucky—triple sisters— may they ever be true to the family union!’ The leader of the band, after a pause, with a thick tongue, inquired, ‘Who are you?’ ‘Clay and Burlingame,’ said I. “The deuce you are.’ said he in reply; and then, in an undertone, addressed to his followers, he concluded: ‘Boys, it’s not the girl in red!’ ”’ Australian Wixes.—The following in relation to the wines produced in Australia, is copied from the Empire. These wines are daily growing in favor among the colonists: “The wines of this colony are essentially Australian. In general character they assimilate to the light French and German wines; some are considered by connoisseurs to resemble Hock, Sauterne, Claret, Burgundy, cte., but no attempt is made to imitate these or any other wines. Of course the vines are in variety, but from whatever description of grape the wines are made, each vineyard bas Pal et local character distingnishabie by connoisseurs. The colonial wines, though classified generally according to their locality of manufacture, are named individually by the discription of grapes from which they are made. ‘ Tur Birp or tux Tottiwwe Bert.—Among the highest woods and deepest glens of Brazil, a sound is sometimes heard, so singular that the . noise seems quite unnatural; it is like the dis. tant and solemn tolling of a bell struck at long intervals. This extraordinary noise proceeds from.a bird called the aropango, The bird sits }on the top of the highest tree in the deepest forest, and though constantly heard in the most . desert places, itis very rarely seen. It is impossible to conceive any thing of a more solemn . . character than the profound silence of the . . woods, broken only by the metalic and almost . supernatural sound of this invisible bird, com. ing from the air. and seeming to follow where ever you go. The aropango is white, with a circle of red around its eyes. Its size is about that of a small pigeon. Ovr QuicistLver Mrxes.—The New Almaden mine, situated about twelve miles south-west of San Jose, is an immense concern. It is assessed . at between $700,000 and $800,000, and pays over $17,000 taxes annually. The mine is almost inexhaustible, and furnishes profitable employment fora large number of mechanics . and laborers. The Guadalupe mine is situated about three miles from the New Almaden; the . metal is (some of it) equally as rich, but much “spotted,’’ and lies down below the bed of the . creek. If the Guadalupe mine, remarksa writer . in the San Andreas Independant, had sufficient as cheap as that produced at New Almaden, “Last week we stated that a quartz boulder . got to putting up much finer buildings than . weighing 162 pounds, valued at $3,000, had . formerly, Heretofore they were generally of ; been found at Minnesota by the Juniata Com. one story, and after the old Spanish style. . pany.

To judge from the namber of churches in San. found a solid mass of gold, weighing over two . tiago, a person would suppose that it ought to pounds, and in numerous places, small disintemouth; and presently, whether from the effect of this drug, or of some trick which I could not detect, the arms, which had been crossed over his breast dropped off themselves, and in less than twenty minutes, by the watch, the body recovered its flexibility. I attributed this phenomenon to the action of some subtle poison but was assured that the Dosia powder, so far from being poisonous, was a most excellent medicine in child-bearing, for discase of the eyes, and for other maladies. An infusion of this powder taken even in perfect health, is said to have virtues which eause it to be in request among the Japanese of all classes—TIt cheers the spirits and refreshes the body. Itis carefully tied up ina white cloth and dried, after being used, as it will serve a great number of times without losing its virtues. In the late debate in the House of Representatives upon the charge, made by the editor of the N. Y.7%mes, as to the attempts of members of Congress to bribe each other, the Hon. A. K. Marshall of Kentucky is reported to have said: “IT care not whether he be the ex-Lieut Governor, or the Lieut, Govervor, or Governor of the State of New York, That character, whatever it may have been, is merged into that of the editor of a partizan newspaper. I look upon him in that light and no other, He stands before this House as the editor of a newspaper influenced and controlled by all. the bias and interest which we know do control men in that position; and T ask this body whether it docs not. become them, their own dignity and honor, to base the investigation upon such information as is given to them by a niember of their own body, in preference to basing it upon an editorial ina newspaper, no matter whether it emanates from a Governor or a Lieut. Governor! le ts but the editor of a newsprper, and I would not pay any man of that character the sort of respect which such action would seem to do.” We like Dr. Marshall very well, but his being a member of Cougress gives him no right to sneer at editors as a class. ‘To be sure, editors can afford to be sneered at by members of Congress, but members of Congress, considering how they are generally made, can ill afford to sneer at them. When Win. Penn, the Governor of Penusylvania, was traveling in a portion of the State where he was nof known, a fellow, in whose presence the Quaker Governor presumed to wear his hat, exclaimed with an air of offended dignity, “Sir, 1 would have you to know that Tam a Justice of the Peace.” “Well, friend,” said the Governor iu bis quict way, ‘7 make such things as thee.”’ Most certainly there are many misrable creatures connected with the American press, yet there are several editors in this country, each of whom has exerted a deeper and stronger and more enduring and more salutary influence upon the great mind of the nation than any member of the House of Representatives that Kentucky has sent to Washington city since Henry Olay represetited her in that hody.—-Louisville Journal, faisiglh pega Sonn bnbylginy LaMakting axp Brron.—In appearance, Lamartine bas something that recals Byron; the same beauty of feature and expression: the same habits of elegance and dandyism; the same rather haughty, and perhaps English, but noble and distinguished carriage. If you add to this, to complete the resemblanee, the retinue of a great lord, a sumptuous mansion, full-blooded horses, and a magnificent chateau, you will conclude that, since the epoch of Tasso and Camoens, times have somewhat changed, and that it is possible now-a-days, to be an eminent poet without dying in a hospital.

Several others followed. At last, a young mule, carrying a portmanteau, with two large sacks of provisions, and many other things, in passing the bad point, struck his load against the rock, which knocked his two hind legs over the precipice, and loose stones immediately began to roll from under them. However, his fore legs were still upon

the narrow path. He had no room to put his head there but he placed his nose on the path to his left, and appeared to bold on by his mouth, lis perilous fate was soon decided by a loose mule which came after him, and, knocking his comrade’s nose off the path, destroyed the balance, aud, heels over head the poor creature instantly commenced a fall which was_ really quitefterrific. With all his baggage firmly lash. cd to him, he rolled down the steep slope, until . he came to the part which was perpendicular ; and then, seeming to bound off, and turning around in the air, fell into the deep torrent on . his back, and instantly disappeared, I thought, of course, that he was killed; bat . he rose, appearing wild and scared, and immediately endeavored to stem the torrent which Tor a moment he succecded, but the eddy suddenly canght the great load on his back, and turued him completely over, Down went his head, with all his baggage, and he was carried down the stream, As suddenly, howeverhe came up again; but he was now weak, and went down the stream, turned around and around by the eddy, until, pass. ing the corner of the rock, I lost sight of him. I saw, however, the peons, with their lassoes in their hands, run down the side of the torrent . for some little distance; but they soon stopped, and, after looking towards the poor mule for some seconds, their earnest attitude gradually relaxed, aud when they walked’ towards me, J saw at a distance a solitary mule walking towards us. We instantly perceived that he was the same whose fall we had just witnessed, and in a few moments he came up to us to join his comrades. Dr Bares.—When this gentleman was elected to the office of Treasurer of State, the people seeemed to feel confident that we had at length secured the services of at least one officer, in whom dependence could be reposed, and it was with pain that we chronicled the. very graye charges which haye been recently brought against him. Even now, although everything looks so dark and suspicious, we cannot but indulge the hope, that he is not morally guilty of any overt acts of dishonesty, but we ave forced to the conclusion, that he bas been criminally negligent and ignorant of the duties of his office. Others, we think, have reaped the profit, whilst he has to endure the censure. We trust that in this opinion we may not be disappointed, and that the investigation of the charges against him may present his conduct in a light favorable at least to the honesty of his intentions. If such men as we have always believed Dr. Bates to be are not to be trusted: if the sight of gold can destroy moral principle in them, where can we hope for faithfulness ?— Whilst living with us, Dr. B. seemed to show a total disregard for gain, or he might have accumulated a handsome competency by his practice, but he was always lenient in his collections and the poor always commanded his services, as readily, and indeed more so, than the rich. He now lies under a grave charge, for malfeasance and embezzlement in office, and in this condition we cannot but drop a tear to the mem. ory of the past, and express the hope that he may convince the world that he is not criminal. —WShasta Courier. Tux Carrran or CutLe.—A_ correspondent of . the Bulletin writing from the capital of the Republic of Chile says ; Mint is very large, over 400 feet square, and chambers, Within the pastfew yyars they have . . have you how,’ said I, ‘now give ’em a sentiing of the Caucasian fortresses ; but the contest at Kars has proved beyond question that the Armenians will welcome the day which ranges them among the subjects of the Emperor of Russia. Yet these events, proximate as they seem, cannot be consumated without fresh contests, —. 2 Tur Girt ww Rep.—Cassius M. Clay tells the following: During the late political canvass, Burlingame and himself occapied ‘adjoining rooms at the Bates House, [ndianapolis. “At a late hour one evening,”’ says he, “I was in B's. Room and both of us were somewhat elated with the pop. mar enthusiasm. We were. as old soldiers are wont to do, fighting our battles over again, when a fine band right opposite my room poured o’er the sea of night floods of soul-stirring music. ‘Clay, you are honored,’ said B., ‘go and acknowledge the compliment.’ With due diffidence I excused mysilf; when, as I anticipated, the band broke forth anew in strains of heroic melody ia front of the room occupied by B. ‘1 ment.’ ‘No, you,’ said B, ‘Well,’ said T, ‘both together,’ so, lockiug arms, with an air of intense dignity, we-walked out upon the balcony, and in a faltering voice, I commenced: ‘Indiana, Massachusetts, and Kentucky—triple sisters— may they ever be true to the family union!’ The leader of the band, after a pause, with a thick tongue, inquired, ‘Who are you?’ ‘Clay and Burlingame,’ said I. “The deuce you are.’ said he in reply; and then, in an undertone, addressed to his followers, he concluded: ‘Boys, it’s not the girl in red!’ ”’ Australian Wixes.—The following in relation to the wines produced in Australia, is copied from the Empire. These wines are daily growing in favor among the colonists: “The wines of this colony are essentially Australian. In general character they assimilate to the light French and German wines; some are considered by connoisseurs to resemble Hock, Sauterne, Claret, Burgundy, cte., but no attempt is made to imitate these or any other wines. Of course the vines are in variety, but from whatever description of grape the wines are made, each vineyard bas Pal et local character distingnishabie by connoisseurs. The colonial wines, though classified generally according to their locality of manufacture, are named individually by the discription of grapes from which they are made. ‘ Tur Birp or tux Tottiwwe Bert.—Among the highest woods and deepest glens of Brazil, a sound is sometimes heard, so singular that the . noise seems quite unnatural; it is like the dis. tant and solemn tolling of a bell struck at long intervals. This extraordinary noise proceeds from.a bird called the aropango, The bird sits }on the top of the highest tree in the deepest forest, and though constantly heard in the most . desert places, itis very rarely seen. It is impossible to conceive any thing of a more solemn . . character than the profound silence of the . . woods, broken only by the metalic and almost . supernatural sound of this invisible bird, com. ing from the air. and seeming to follow where ever you go. The aropango is white, with a circle of red around its eyes. Its size is about that of a small pigeon. Ovr QuicistLver Mrxes.—The New Almaden mine, situated about twelve miles south-west of San Jose, is an immense concern. It is assessed . at between $700,000 and $800,000, and pays over $17,000 taxes annually. The mine is almost inexhaustible, and furnishes profitable employment fora large number of mechanics . and laborers. The Guadalupe mine is situated about three miles from the New Almaden; the . metal is (some of it) equally as rich, but much “spotted,’’ and lies down below the bed of the . creek. If the Guadalupe mine, remarksa writer . in the San Andreas Independant, had sufficient as cheap as that produced at New Almaden, “Last week we stated that a quartz boulder . got to putting up much finer buildings than . weighing 162 pounds, valued at $3,000, had . formerly, Heretofore they were generally of ; been found at Minnesota by the Juniata Com. one story, and after the old Spanish style. . pany.

I attributed this phenomenon to the action of some subtle poison but was assured that the Dosia powder, so far from being poisonous, was a most excellent medicine in child-bearing, for discase of the eyes, and for other maladies. An infusion of this powder taken even in perfect health, is said to have virtues which eause it to be in request among the Japanese of all classes—TIt cheers the spirits and refreshes the body. Itis carefully tied up ina white cloth and dried, after being used, as it will serve a great number of times without losing its virtues. In the late debate in the House of Representatives upon the charge, made by the editor of the N. Y.7%mes, as to the attempts of members of Congress to bribe each other, the Hon. A. K. Marshall of Kentucky is reported to have said: “IT care not whether he be the ex-Lieut Governor, or the Lieut, Govervor, or Governor of the State of New York, That character, whatever it may have been, is merged into that of the editor of a partizan newspaper. I look upon him in that light and no other, He stands before this House as the editor of a newspaper influenced and controlled by all. the bias and interest which we know do control men in that position; and T ask this body whether it docs not. become them, their own dignity and honor, to base the investigation upon such information as is given to them by a niember of their own body, in preference to basing it upon an editorial ina newspaper, no matter whether it emanates from a Governor or a Lieut. Governor! le ts but the editor of a newsprper, and I would not pay any man of that character the sort of respect which such action would seem to do.” We like Dr. Marshall very well, but his being a member of Cougress gives him no right to sneer at editors as a class. ‘To be sure, editors can afford to be sneered at by members of Congress, but members of Congress, considering how they are generally made, can ill afford to sneer at them. When Win. Penn, the Governor of Penusylvania, was traveling in a portion of the State where he was nof known, a fellow, in whose presence the Quaker Governor presumed to wear his hat, exclaimed with an air of offended dignity, “Sir, 1 would have you to know that Tam a Justice of the Peace.” “Well, friend,” said the Governor iu bis quict way, ‘7 make such things as thee.”’ Most certainly there are many misrable creatures connected with the American press, yet there are several editors in this country, each of whom has exerted a deeper and stronger and more enduring and more salutary influence upon the great mind of the nation than any member of the House of Representatives that Kentucky has sent to Washington city since Henry Olay represetited her in that hody.—-Louisville Journal, faisiglh pega Sonn bnbylginy LaMakting axp Brron.—In appearance, Lamartine bas something that recals Byron; the same beauty of feature and expression: the same habits of elegance and dandyism; the same rather haughty, and perhaps English, but noble and distinguished carriage. If you add to this, to complete the resemblanee, the retinue of a great lord, a sumptuous mansion, full-blooded horses, and a magnificent chateau, you will conclude that, since the epoch of Tasso and Camoens, times have somewhat changed, and that it is possible now-a-days, to be an eminent poet without dying in a hospital.
