We have been friends together, We have laugh’d at little jests, For the fount. of hope was gushing Warm and joyous in our breasts : But laughter has now fied thy lip, And sullen glooms thy brow— We have been friends together, Shall a light word. part us now.?. We have been sad together, We have wept with bitter tears . Over the grass-grown graves where slumber’d The hopes of early years. Those voices which are silent Would bid thee clear thy brow— We have been sad together, Oh! what shall part us now? (Mrs. Norton. bem mroerecnreeeseneeeenen=] AnEcDoTE o# MorrHy.—The Paris correspondent of the National Intelligencer says : The following story has been related to me, illustrative of the philosophy of chess, a game which enjoys the traditional admiration of Dr. Franklin, as requiring the exertion of every originating faculty of the mind. In the course of one of those games between Messrs. Morphy and Andersen, a move of the former excited much surprise among the bystanders. He had declined to take a piece, which, apparently, an exchange of knights would have Keonlved. it was thought, conclusively in his fayor. The game proceeded, nevertheless, without verbal comment, and was rapidly won by Mr. Morphy. No sooner did he deliver the “checkmate,’’? than one of the most intense lookers-on, breathless with pent-up emotion, exclaimed : “For the love of Heaven tell me why you did not take the knight?” “Because,’’? said Mr. Morphy, all alive to the nature of friend’s concern, “it was a deep laid plot. In afew moves I should have lost the game by a stalemate. Mr. Anderssen saw the game was desperate, and he planned this snare tor me,’’ So saying, he replaced the pieces as they had been at the critical moment, and demonstrated the result by a series of moves which would have been inevitable had he taken the knight, “Was I not right, Mr. Anderssen ?”’ “Precisely,” ejaculated the bewildered gentleman, thinking, possibly, that the Prince of Darkoess was not without a share in the competition of the young stranger. AGE anv IntELLECT.—The difference of age at which the intellect and imagination of men mature, is very striking. The warm and ardent temperment of youth, has given birth to many of the noblest creations in music, painting, and poetry; but no less fine productions have been evinced by the efforts of riper years. Chatterton wrote what has since been the admiration and wonder of the world, exhausted all desire of life, and saw nothing better than death at the early age of eighteen. Byron and Burns, after filling the world with immortal poetry and ete died each in his thirty-seventh year. Ratffiel also perished at thirty-seven, but not till he had wrought immortality for his name by his creations of divine beauty. Mozart died still earlier. There is no doubt that the genius of all these had reached its full meridian; if, indeed, that of some of them was not decidedly on the wane. On the otber band, Handel was forty-eight before he gave assurance of his great powers of intellect. Dryden when he first went to Loudon, atthe age of thirty-tive, did not know he could write a line of poetry, and yet the vigor and ease with which he afterwards wrote, gives evidence of the strength of his pen. Milton was over fifty when he began his great work. Sit Walter Scott was upwards of thirty before he commenced to publish, and all b , greatness was to come. Awxkwarp Wiryess.—Sergent Cockle, who was a rough, blustering fellow, once got from a witness more than he gave. Ina trial of a right of fishery, he asked the witness— “Dost thou love fish ?’ “Ay,’’ responded the witness, with a grin, “but I donna like cockle sauce with it,’”’ The roar of laughter which echoed through the court rather disturbed the learned Sergeaut, There is an anecdote something similar related of Sergeant Davy, a great lawyer of the last age. A gentleman once rye in the Court of “y= Bench, to give bail in the sum of £3,000. Sergeant Davy, wanting to display his wit, said to him sternly : “And pray, sir, how do you make out that you are worth £3,000?” The gentleman stated the particulars of his property up to £2.940. “That’s all very good,” said the Sergeant, “but you want sixty pounds mere to be worth the £3,000.” “For that sum,” replied the gentleman, in no way disconcerted, “I have a note of hand of one Sergeant “gA and I hope he will have the honesty to settle it,’ The laughter that this reply. excited extended even to the bench; the Sergeant looked abashed, and Lord Mansfield observed, in his ba pe tone : “Well, brother Davy, I think we may accept the bail.”’ ve vi % Execrriciry.—The London Chronicle anmounces that the secret of compressing and governing electricity is at length discovered, and that power may, therefore, now be considered as the sole motor benceforward to be used. A small mortar was fired by the inventor at the rate of one hundred shots per minute— without flashing, smoke, or noise. The same power can, it seems, be adapted to every system of mechanical invention, and is destined to supercede steam, requiring neither machinist nor combustion. . An Adee gile MENT or THE Ltoy.— Among the inesous fearful stories with which Gerad the ry regales his readers, we find ane lescription of a trait in the character of the king of beasts : — The lion treats a man very differently from y animal that be js accustomed to kill for ‘food. If be kills a person who has fired at him he never eats the toa. Ifhe meetsin bis nightly promenade a man well clothed in busnous, his experience shows him that he isnot a marauder, and he may either kill him for food, or if the fancy happens to take him, he will kill him by fear, little by little, just as a pasttime, In the first case he will give him barely time to say his prayers, and then bounding on bim, will crush bis head with a single bite, instead of strangling him, as he is accustomed to do with otber animals. In the second case he sometimes will bar the passage of the unfortuanate fellow by lying down before him, and then he will walk along by his side, purring and showing his teeth like a tiger. Sometimes he makes believe to go away and leave him alone, and then making a long detour he will eonceal bimself along the path, and charge at him with a roar. Sometimes he crouches down like a cat and bounds on his victim, who gives himself up for lost ; but the tantalizer only knocks him over with his paw, or Walking around him, be strikes him in the face a blow like a flail with bis muscular tail. At last the victim succumbs to the agony that is worse than a thousand deaths, and dies of very fear. These pastimes of the lion, as one can well imagine, have never been told by the victim himself, but are reported by bis comrades, who haying been in company, sought safety by flight by taking refuge on rocks or trees, while the poor soul -that was captured, too much frightened to imitate their example, died before their eyes, of terror, while they could do nothing for his relief but pray to the prophet, who . on y heard when it was too late to eave. These attacks, so horrible in their fascination, bave given a certain semblance of proof to the universally accredited belief in the magnetizing power of the lion. Meeting of the Democratic State Central Committee Pursuant to notice, te members of the Anti-Lecompton Democratic State Central Committee, met at Sacramento, on Thursday, April 21st. Of the twenty-one members constituting the Committee, nineteen were present. On motion it was ordered that a State Convention be held at Sacramento, on WEDNSDAY, JUNE 15th. The foHowing resolution was unanimously adopted : Resolved, That the Committee recommend to the Count Central Committees the establishment of no test as a qna ification for votes at the primary elections, other than an adherence to the principles of Popular Sovereignty, absolute non-intervention by Congress, and opposition to the Administration inits extravagant expenditures of the public moneys. The apportionment of delegates was fixed as follows: One delegate for each County ; one for every two hundred votes cast at the last annual election, and one for every fraction of one hundred and over ; each eounty to have at least two delegatos.

The Democratic party of the State of California, in Convention assembled, make and publish as their Platform and Resolutions : . Resolved, That all just f dorived from the people; that this principle is recognized as fuucamental by all American Constitutions and by the ratic party. ax woe That the ,right of the people to form and neir own way, subject only to the Constitution of the United States, as guar‘anteed to Kansas and Nebraska, by their organic law, belongs alike to the people of all other Territories of the United States. “3. Resolved, That while we adhere to the fundamental Democratic principles embraced in the Cincinnati Platform of 1856, we especially renew and re-affirm that principle contained iu the resolution known as ‘the Popular Sovereignty Resolution,”’ declaring the true intent and meaning of that resolution to be. that the people of a State or Territory are invested with the right of ratifying or rejecting at the ballot box any Constitution that may be framed for their government; and all attempts by the Administration and Congress to coerce and bribe the peole into the adoption of a particular Constitution, not thas ratified by them, are subversive of the principles of pure Democracy, and destructive of the equality of the States under the Constitution. 4. Resolved, That the recent attempts of the Executive and Congress to foree upon the people of Kausas a Consti' tution which they have rejected at a legal election, is in violation of the principles of the party which placed them power, derogatory to the positions they occupy, and destructive of our form of government, 5. Resolved, That we regard with detestation the passage by Congress, at its last session, of the Bill known as . the “English Bill,’ and look upon itas an attempt to . bribe a free people into the indorsoment of an odious Constitution; as calculated to create sectional feelings, and cause sectional jealousies ; as a violation of the Federal compact; a breach of the Compromises of the Constitution, and a blow at the equality of the States, in that it proposes to make large donations of Jand, and admit Kansas into the Unionas a State withont reference to her population, if she adopts the Lecompton Constitution, which establishes slavery, while it refuses her people admission . until they obtain a population of ninety or one hundred . and twenty thousand if they prefer any other than. the ecompton Constitution. 6. Assolved, That we heartily indorse the action of those members of Congress who sustained ‘:the Crittenden-Montgomery Bill,’’ and who opposed the English Bill at the last session of that body. 7. Resolved, That it is the right of the people of the States to regulate, in their own way, their political affairs; that Federal office-holders are servants of the people, and the constant interference by those servants with the primary affairs of party, whether by menaces of dismissal from office, by forced levies, or by the distribution of promixes and moneys at the polls and elsewhere, is incompatible with the spirit of our Censtitutjons, State and Federal; subversive of popular liberty. and calculated to destroy the sovereignty of the States and centralize power at the Federal Capital. 8. Resolved, That the immediate action of Congress in securing the construction of a Railroat to the Pacific is a recognized feature in our party policy, indispensable to our safety in war and prosperity in peace, and we call upon the Administration to redeem its pledges, and devote its energies to the consummation of this great work. 9. Resolved, That we regard with favor the bill before Congress. at its past session, known as the ‘Homestead Bill,’’ which proposes to donate to each actual settler uppon the publie lands of the United States one hundred and sixty acres, and earnestly recommend the passage of the same. 10. Resolved, That relying implicitly upon the soundness and integrity of the principles above set forth, and upon the justice and intelligence of the masses, we present this platform to the people of the State, and earnestly invoke the active support of allin its vindication and success, cordially inviting to a full and equal communion all those of whatever creed who recognize the justice of our cause in the doctrines we profess, and who desire to participate in their triumph.

APPEAL OF THE LADIES’ MOUNT VERNON ASSOCIATION, TO THE People of the State of California, A recent appointment by Miss Ann Pamela Cunningham, Regent of the ‘Mount Vernon Ladies’ Asrociation of the Union,” has devolved on the undersigned, the duty and the privilege of placing before the people of . this State, the purposes of the Association. An Act of Incorporation from the State of Virginia awthorizes the Association ‘‘to purcbase, hold and improve two hundred acres of Mount Vernon, including the mansion as well as the tomb of George Washington,’’ and to receive a deed in fee simple, and to exercise full pewer over the use and management of the same, Under this charter, a constitution has been adopted, which vests the power of management in a Regent and Vice Regents, selected one from each State of the Union. In April, 1858, under the advice of legal gentlemen, a contract was executed for the purchase of Mount Vernon for $200,000, of which $18,000 was to be paid eash, $57,000 on the Ist January. 1859, and the balance im three equal instalments of $41,666 66 each, with interest from the date of the contract, payable on 22d February, 1860, 1861, 1862, owners of the property ; a delivery of the possession of the property by the tax collector to any purchaser, at any such sale, shall be a sufficient title in the purchaser, without the execution of a deed therefor, by the tax collector. Passed November 30th, 1858. H. H. FLAGG, President. A. B, Hanson, Clerk. [No. 31.] N ORDINANCE FIXING THE COMPENsation of the City Marshal and Policemen.

Trustees of the City of Nevada do ordain as follows : Skc, 1, From and after the first day of July ay p. 1858, it shall not be lawful for the owners or other persons having the charge of dogs to allow them torun at large within the corporeal limits of the town of Nevada except as provided for in this Ordinance, Sec. 2, Every owner or other person having the charge of dogs shall pay for a licehse for keeping each dog the sum of fivedollars per year, payablein advance at the Marshal’s office, Sgc. 3.

FLAGG, President. 37-3t 23-tf Until payment in full, the proprietor is to retain pessession. but such payment may be made at any time. The cash payment was made, and the gratifying intelligence has lately reached us that the instalment of $57,000 was duly met ; thus securing the contract, which allows payments to be made, in sums not less than $5,000, as soon as collected, thereby arresting the accrual of intereat. Allefforts, therefore, are now turned to the collection of funds for the payment of the deferred instalments at the earliest possible day, thereby saving a large amount of interest, and realizing the cherished hope of at once odtaining possession of Mount Vernon, To this noble cause, the Women of the Union, deserting for a season the seclusion of domestic life, have brought their talents and all their energies. Amidst the discord of sectional strife, they bid us gather around the tomb of Washington as children of a common heritage, there recall his moderation of spirit and pure patriotism, and lay to heart the solemn warnings of his last public words. They know, that standing on that hallowed spot, the pilgrims gathered from the wide expanse of the Republic, can feel but one sentiment—reverence for his teachings, and deyotion to the Union he so loved. Men of high station and intelleet-—among whom Everett stands pre-eminent—are lending their influence and their eloquence to the cause. In twenty-one States of the Union, the good work goes bravely on, and California ia now invited to do her part. Youngest of her sisters, she yields to none in reverence for the name of Washington and devotion to the Union. Animated then by these sentiments and by a just State pride, let her people bring their offerings to this common altar of patriotism, Shall the gold of her glittering soil be poured alone into the lap of Commerce, and none be devoted to preserve and gaard with sacred care the Groves of Mount Vernon? Let all then vie in generous rivalry, to show that California lacks not the heart to sympathize, nor the hand to help in this work of patriotism. 2 To the Women of California, this appeal is_ especially madé; “ Your Sisters of the Rast have assumed: this honorable duty and claim your zealous co-operation, Our State will do her part liberally, if you resolutely take the matterin hand. On you, therefore, will it depend whether she shall respond te the call. Although contributions to any amount are solicited. yet the price of membership is but one dollar, Concerted systematic action, therefore, must be adopted to canvass the State from the Sierras’ to the Pacific. The duty of such organization devolves on the Vice Regent, and she proposes the following plan as simple and also effective, if seconded by your hearty co-operation. Lady Managers will be selected, one or more for each city, town, village and mining eamp in the State, appoint Assistants, issuing to them Credentials authorizing them to receive contributions and enroll members~ These assistants will report monthly to the Lady Manage! appointing them. The seyeral Lady: Managers will report monthly. = to the Vice Regent, a complete list of names en ‘they may the amounts received, with such suggestions . deem proper.

(Mrs. Norton. bem mroerecnreeeseneeeenen=] AnEcDoTE o# MorrHy.—The Paris correspondent of the National Intelligencer says : The following story has been related to me, illustrative of the philosophy of chess, a game which enjoys the traditional admiration of Dr. Franklin, as requiring the exertion of every originating faculty of the mind. In the course of one of those games between Messrs. Morphy and Andersen, a move of the former excited much surprise among the bystanders. He had declined to take a piece, which, apparently, an exchange of knights would have Keonlved. it was thought, conclusively in his fayor. The game proceeded, nevertheless, without verbal comment, and was rapidly won by Mr. Morphy. No sooner did he deliver the “checkmate,’’? than one of the most intense lookers-on, breathless with pent-up emotion, exclaimed : “For the love of Heaven tell me why you did not take the knight?” “Because,’’? said Mr. Morphy, all alive to the nature of friend’s concern, “it was a deep laid plot. In afew moves I should have lost the game by a stalemate. Mr. Anderssen saw the game was desperate, and he planned this snare tor me,’’ So saying, he replaced the pieces as they had been at the critical moment, and demonstrated the result by a series of moves which would have been inevitable had he taken the knight, “Was I not right, Mr. Anderssen ?”’ “Precisely,” ejaculated the bewildered gentleman, thinking, possibly, that the Prince of Darkoess was not without a share in the competition of the young stranger. AGE anv IntELLECT.—The difference of age at which the intellect and imagination of men mature, is very striking. The warm and ardent temperment of youth, has given birth to many of the noblest creations in music, painting, and poetry; but no less fine productions have been evinced by the efforts of riper years. Chatterton wrote what has since been the admiration and wonder of the world, exhausted all desire of life, and saw nothing better than death at the early age of eighteen. Byron and Burns, after filling the world with immortal poetry and ete died each in his thirty-seventh year. Ratffiel also perished at thirty-seven, but not till he had wrought immortality for his name by his creations of divine beauty. Mozart died still earlier. There is no doubt that the genius of all these had reached its full meridian; if, indeed, that of some of them was not decidedly on the wane. On the otber band, Handel was forty-eight before he gave assurance of his great powers of intellect. Dryden when he first went to Loudon, atthe age of thirty-tive, did not know he could write a line of poetry, and yet the vigor and ease with which he afterwards wrote, gives evidence of the strength of his pen. Milton was over fifty when he began his great work. Sit Walter Scott was upwards of thirty before he commenced to publish, and all b , greatness was to come. Awxkwarp Wiryess.—Sergent Cockle, who was a rough, blustering fellow, once got from a witness more than he gave. Ina trial of a right of fishery, he asked the witness— “Dost thou love fish ?’ “Ay,’’ responded the witness, with a grin, “but I donna like cockle sauce with it,’”’ The roar of laughter which echoed through the court rather disturbed the learned Sergeaut, There is an anecdote something similar related of Sergeant Davy, a great lawyer of the last age. A gentleman once rye in the Court of “y= Bench, to give bail in the sum of £3,000. Sergeant Davy, wanting to display his wit, said to him sternly : “And pray, sir, how do you make out that you are worth £3,000?” The gentleman stated the particulars of his property up to £2.940. “That’s all very good,” said the Sergeant, “but you want sixty pounds mere to be worth the £3,000.” “For that sum,” replied the gentleman, in no way disconcerted, “I have a note of hand of one Sergeant “gA and I hope he will have the honesty to settle it,’ The laughter that this reply. excited extended even to the bench; the Sergeant looked abashed, and Lord Mansfield observed, in his ba pe tone : “Well, brother Davy, I think we may accept the bail.”’ ve vi % Execrriciry.—The London Chronicle anmounces that the secret of compressing and governing electricity is at length discovered, and that power may, therefore, now be considered as the sole motor benceforward to be used. A small mortar was fired by the inventor at the rate of one hundred shots per minute— without flashing, smoke, or noise. The same power can, it seems, be adapted to every system of mechanical invention, and is destined to supercede steam, requiring neither machinist nor combustion. . An Adee gile MENT or THE Ltoy.— Among the inesous fearful stories with which Gerad the ry regales his readers, we find ane lescription of a trait in the character of the king of beasts : — The lion treats a man very differently from y animal that be js accustomed to kill for ‘food. If be kills a person who has fired at him he never eats the toa. Ifhe meetsin bis nightly promenade a man well clothed in busnous, his experience shows him that he isnot a marauder, and he may either kill him for food, or if the fancy happens to take him, he will kill him by fear, little by little, just as a pasttime, In the first case he will give him barely time to say his prayers, and then bounding on bim, will crush bis head with a single bite, instead of strangling him, as he is accustomed to do with otber animals. In the second case he sometimes will bar the passage of the unfortuanate fellow by lying down before him, and then he will walk along by his side, purring and showing his teeth like a tiger. Sometimes he makes believe to go away and leave him alone, and then making a long detour he will eonceal bimself along the path, and charge at him with a roar. Sometimes he crouches down like a cat and bounds on his victim, who gives himself up for lost ; but the tantalizer only knocks him over with his paw, or Walking around him, be strikes him in the face a blow like a flail with bis muscular tail. At last the victim succumbs to the agony that is worse than a thousand deaths, and dies of very fear. These pastimes of the lion, as one can well imagine, have never been told by the victim himself, but are reported by bis comrades, who haying been in company, sought safety by flight by taking refuge on rocks or trees, while the poor soul -that was captured, too much frightened to imitate their example, died before their eyes, of terror, while they could do nothing for his relief but pray to the prophet, who . on y heard when it was too late to eave. These attacks, so horrible in their fascination, bave given a certain semblance of proof to the universally accredited belief in the magnetizing power of the lion.

The Democratic party of the State of California, in Convention assembled, make and publish as their Platform and Resolutions : . Resolved, That all just f dorived from the people; that this principle is recognized as fuucamental by all American Constitutions and by the ratic party. ax woe That the ,right of the people to form and neir own way, subject only to the Constitution of the United States, as guar‘anteed to Kansas and Nebraska, by their organic law, belongs alike to the people of all other Territories of the United States. “3. Resolved, That while we adhere to the fundamental Democratic principles embraced in the Cincinnati Platform of 1856, we especially renew and re-affirm that principle contained iu the resolution known as ‘the Popular Sovereignty Resolution,”’ declaring the true intent and meaning of that resolution to be. that the people of a State or Territory are invested with the right of ratifying or rejecting at the ballot box any Constitution that may be framed for their government; and all attempts by the Administration and Congress to coerce and bribe the peole into the adoption of a particular Constitution, not thas ratified by them, are subversive of the principles of pure Democracy, and destructive of the equality of the States under the Constitution. 4. Resolved, That the recent attempts of the Executive and Congress to foree upon the people of Kausas a Consti' tution which they have rejected at a legal election, is in violation of the principles of the party which placed them power, derogatory to the positions they occupy, and destructive of our form of government, 5. Resolved, That we regard with detestation the passage by Congress, at its last session, of the Bill known as . the “English Bill,’ and look upon itas an attempt to . bribe a free people into the indorsoment of an odious Constitution; as calculated to create sectional feelings, and cause sectional jealousies ; as a violation of the Federal compact; a breach of the Compromises of the Constitution, and a blow at the equality of the States, in that it proposes to make large donations of Jand, and admit Kansas into the Unionas a State withont reference to her population, if she adopts the Lecompton Constitution, which establishes slavery, while it refuses her people admission . until they obtain a population of ninety or one hundred . and twenty thousand if they prefer any other than. the ecompton Constitution. 6. Assolved, That we heartily indorse the action of those members of Congress who sustained ‘:the Crittenden-Montgomery Bill,’’ and who opposed the English Bill at the last session of that body. 7.. Resolved, That it is the right of the people of the States to regulate, in their own way, their political affairs; that Federal office-holders are servants of the people, and the constant interference by those servants with the primary affairs of party, whether by menaces of dismissal from office, by forced levies, or by the distribution of promixes and moneys at the polls and elsewhere, is incompatible with the spirit of our Censtitutjons, State and Federal; subversive of popular liberty. and calculated to destroy the sovereignty of the States and centralize power at the Federal Capital. 8. Resolved, That the immediate action of Congress in securing the construction of a Railroat to the Pacific is a recognized feature in our party policy, indispensable to our safety in war and prosperity in peace, and we call upon the Administration to redeem its pledges, and devote its energies to the consummation of this great work. 9. Resolved, That we regard with favor the bill before Congress. at its past session, known as the ‘Homestead Bill,’’ which proposes to donate to each actual settler uppon the publie lands of the United States one hundred and sixty acres, and earnestly recommend the passage of the same. 10. Resolved, That relying implicitly upon the soundness and integrity of the principles above set forth, and upon the justice and intelligence of the masses, we present this platform to the people of the State, and earnestly invoke the active support of allin its vindication and success, cordially inviting to a full and equal communion all those of whatever creed who recognize the justice of our cause in the doctrines we profess, and who desire to participate in their triumph.

FLAGG, President. 37-3t 23-tf Until payment in full, the proprietor is to retain pessession. but such payment may be made at any time. The cash payment was made, and the gratifying intelligence has lately reached us that the instalment of $57,000 was duly met ; thus securing the contract, which allows payments to be made, in sums not less than $5,000, as soon as collected, thereby arresting the accrual of intereat. Allefforts, therefore, are now turned to the collection of funds for the payment of the deferred instalments at the earliest possible day, thereby saving a large amount of interest, and realizing the cherished hope of at once odtaining possession of Mount Vernon, To this noble cause, the Women of the Union, deserting for a season the seclusion of domestic life, have brought their talents and all their energies. Amidst the discord of sectional strife, they bid us gather around the tomb of Washington as children of a common heritage, there recall his moderation of spirit and pure patriotism, and lay to heart the solemn warnings of his last public words. They know, that standing on that hallowed spot, the pilgrims gathered from the wide expanse of the Republic, can feel but one sentiment—reverence for his teachings, and deyotion to the Union he so loved. Men of high station and intelleet-—among whom Everett stands pre-eminent—are lending their influence and their eloquence to the cause. In twenty-one States of the Union, the good work goes bravely on, and California ia now invited to do her part. Youngest of her sisters, she yields to none in reverence for the name of Washington and devotion to the Union. Animated then by these sentiments and by a just State pride, let her people bring their offerings to this common altar of patriotism, Shall the gold of her glittering soil be poured alone into the lap of Commerce, and none be devoted to preserve and gaard with sacred care the Groves of Mount Vernon? Let all then vie in generous rivalry, to show that California lacks not the heart to sympathize, nor the hand to help in this work of patriotism. 2 To the Women of California, this appeal is_ especially madé; “ Your Sisters of the Rast have assumed: this honorable duty and claim your zealous co-operation, Our State will do her part liberally, if you resolutely take the matterin hand. On you, therefore, will it depend whether she shall respond te the call. Although contributions to any amount are solicited. yet the price of membership is but one dollar, Concerted systematic action, therefore, must be adopted to canvass the State from the Sierras’ to the Pacific. The duty of such organization devolves on the Vice Regent, and she proposes the following plan as simple and also effective, if seconded by your hearty co-operation. Lady Managers will be selected, one or more for each city, town, village and mining eamp in the State, appoint Assistants, issuing to them Credentials authorizing them to receive contributions and enroll members~ These assistants will report monthly to the Lady Manage! appointing them. The seyeral Lady: Managers will report monthly. = to the Vice Regent, a complete list of names en ‘they may the amounts received, with such suggestions . deem proper. Monthly the Vice Regent will vie ad the Regent, the sums received and a complete li z a tributors, whose names will be recorded in —— their preserved at Mount Vernon, in perpetual memory 0! tribute to this noble cause.
