Gradually the light dawns upon us, and one by one the facts break forth, that we, a nation of a ten years’ growth, are fast becoming civilized. Not only the ruder marks of intellect, as manifested in the various mechanical contrivances of our mines and farms, but literature and the fine arts are taking unto themselves a local habitation and a name in our midst. Stationery follows closely upon the heels of refinement, and few persons are aware of the extent and importance of this branch of our trade. The word Stationer, originally, signified Bookseller, from his occupying a stand or station, but as the publication and sale of books increased, it was separated from that of the other, the name Stationer remaining with the vender of paper, ink, pens, ete. At this day, in our country, a Book and Stationery store is a perfect themometer of the nature, extent and quality of the community. Wherever you see a neat, well kept establishment of this kind, with a gentlemanly and intelligent proprietor, you may be sure you are in the midst of an intellectual, refined and well informed people. , About two years ago Mr. Albert L. Bancroft, brother of the eminent Publisher and Bookseller of San Francisco, conceived the idea of taking Stationery and making it a separate and distinct branch of trade, devoting his best energies to that'alone. No house exclusively Stationery had as yet been started upon the Pacific Coast. Accordingly after having spent one year in preparation, the requisite arrangements were consymmated for receiving regular supplies from the Mills and Manufactories of the United States, England, France and Germany, and the enterprise launched in San Francisco, early in 1860, under the name of A. L. Bancroft & Co., Mr. H.' H. Bancroft becoming junior partner in the firm. So far it has proved a decided success, there not being a town of any consequence in California, Oregon, Washington or Utah which does not contain one or more customers of this house. Closely allied to the interests of this new firm, stands the old house of H. H. Bancroft & Co. with its large warerooms crowded to overflowing with books in every department of literature. The customers of these two houses derive great advantages in their being able to make up their entire stock from them, and by’each department of their business being capried on’separately and upon its own merits. We heartily say, patronize the new house of A. L. Bancroft & Co., they deserve it. * Tue Carrrornta Syop AND THE SaBBATH. —The Synod of Upper California, whose session was held in Sau Francisco has just cloned. The following in reference to the NUMBER 370. Rothschild and the Kingdom of Pal‘ estine, __Itis questionable whether Napoleon's . idea of establishing a Jewish Kingdom in Palestine is practicable. Whatever contumely the Hebrews have suffered elsewhere, they have had infinitely more to endure in the country made illustrious by their historical associations and peculiar theology. They are more hated and oppressed in the . city of Jerusalem than in any other city on earth, and to restore them to power would require the complete expulsioa of Mabomedans and the continual presence of large forces:to keep back the hordes of intractable semi-savages, who hold them in immeasurable detestation, The Arabs might be held in check, but they would not be subdued or restrained from rebellion’ and could not exist under a Jewish government, The Hebrews, themselves, would be satis. fied with nothing less than their ancient Theocraey, aud it is questionable whether a system adapted to the times‘of the Prophets would be effective after so long a time; and under any other system their treasured traditions and statutes would be no more applicable than at present. Neither Tark nor Christian could remain under a government which Moses found adapted to the requirements of the great camp in the wilder. ness, Nor do we think that the American Jews would care to be thos colonized and separated from the world of commerce. Their mercantile instincts lead them to the most active places of commerce. They are among the first in the founding of cities, and their congenial atmosphere is that of new enterprise; they are patriotic, freedom loving, and loyal to the government which gives them equal protection, and differ from other citizens in notbing but the observance of certain religious rites and “set times” which interfere with none of the first laws of Christian nations, We doubt whether if the crown of Jerusalem sparkle to-morrow on the -heights of Mount Zion five thousand Jews in America would abandon republican freedom, even for the eplendid empire of the :restoration, Napoleon’s proposition is romantic and startling. rendered so by the historical romance of the ancient people; but when viewed through the lens of practical political economy, it becomes visionary and unstatesmanlike. Rothschild has already enough empire; he will bardly yield the despotic sovereignty of England, France and other national debtors for the narrow territory of Palestine, where ramparts of gold would not protect his remains from the wandering, penniless son ef the desert, orenerecetiaianetsaineintiinninetbains Potar Daxaers—Much has been said of the risks to be’ incurred by Hayes and his party, recently sailed for the pole; in fact, our whalers undergo more risk each year than he, so far as marine risk is concerned. The latter are not eaten up by the Kequimaux land-sharks, but whales have run into such latitudes of Jate years as to give our vessels a taste of floating ice, and plenty of them had holes knocked in their sides, Hayes and his craft only bas to run through Sabbath was adopted by tinanimons vote of . the ice and make a berth ashore, His danthe Synod: “Your Committee on Sabbath Observance report that the Sabbath continues to be desecrated, as in years past, throughout the State, They would have changed God's holy day into a holliday, and even many Christians, insensibly yielding to the prevuiling tendency, do not ballow it as its sacreduess demands, nor as their spiritual interests require. : We believe that this disregard of the Sabbath is one of the greatest barriers against the promotion of morality and religion among the people; that it neutralizes a large share of our Christian efforts, and that it is fatal to our social, commercial, and natioval prosperity. To counteract this evil, we recognize— 1. The duty of every Christian to set before the world the example of a Sabbath kept strictly holy. 2. The duty of every Christian minister to give the subject of the Sabbath special attention in his pulpit ministrations. 3. The duty of the Governmeet to protect the people in their right to the enjoyment of a quiet and peaceful day of rest from secular labor. : 4. The duty of every friend of the Sabbath to usé every legitimate influence to secure the election of such men to the Legislature as will restore to the people the right of which they have been unjustly deprived. We also recommend that this Synod, in conjunction with the Congregational Association of California appoiut a committe to act in concert with similar committees appointed by other religious bodies in this State, in devising measures for securiug the passage, by our Legislature, of a law for the protection of the people of this State, in their right to the enjoyment of the peace and rest appropriate to the Sabbath day.”’ More Trova THAN Portry.—Capt. .Asa G. Houghton said in his speech the other night, “your fathers fought, bled, and died for liberties, which now, yon d—n fools cannot appreciate,”’— Yreka Journal. ger is from the failure of food, scurvy, and the awful effect which the absence of sunlight produces on human beings, when, like vegetables ‘uader barrels, they got blanched. The polat cold can be endured for about two seasons by ordinary explorers ; after this, the body loses its resisting powers.—[New Bedford Mercury. TroTarcL Apvice.—Professor Silliman closed a recent Smithsonian lecture by giving the following sensible adyice to young men : “If you wish for a clear mind, and strong muscles, and quiet.nerves and long life, and power prolonged into old age, permit me to say, although I am not giving a temperance lecture, avoid all drink but water, and mild infusions of that fluid; shun tobacco, opium, and everything else that disturbs the normal state of the system; rely upon nutricious food and mild dilutant drinks of which water is the base, and you will need nothing beyond these things, except rest and due moral regulation of all your powers, to give you long, happy and _, lives and a serene evening at the close. Nort Caroiina.—Hon. D. K. McRae is considered one of the most talented men in the State of North Carolina; was consul to Paris under Pierce’s Administration; independent candidate for Governor tw years ago, and is now a Douglas Elector. He is 4 brilliant man, and a grent favorite of the young Democracy. There are not a few, but many more, in North Carolina, of the same sort. igillcimsie ine rendiantiaa nai Tue Uran Jupaes.—The Carson Valley correspondent of the Sacramento Union an‘icipates trouble between Judges Cradle. baugh and Flenniken. The President has . removed Cradlebaugh and appointed Flenniken. Cradlebaugh denies the right of the President to remove him, and the upshot ef ho ial will be that two courts will be
