In that little book published at the Union office, styled the “Last night of the Session,” Col. Gift is reported as having said, “that if a person were to enter either of the legislative halls with a cocked pistol, and presenting it, say ihat he intended shooting the first . person his eye fell npon who was a candidate . for Congress, that two-tairds of the members would be seen to dodge under their desks ’’; This remark, even although facetiously made, . is nevertheless the embodiment of consideraible truth. No less than a dozen names are now hoisted in different portions of the State, each having some pretension, and concerning whom, their several friends make urgent appeal. Let us lock without prejudice at a few, and upon another occasion we will discuss the remainder, premising however, that we do it in . no spirit of party, for that we ignore, but beMryive.—During the past week, we have heard of no big strikes, but good success has everywhere crowned the Jaborious miner. In the tunnels, and placers, an average yield has been told us. In quartz mining, the amount has been more than heretofore. From the Empire and Gold Hill Co’s, we heard flattering accounts. During the week we visited the new mill of Tibbals & Co. and must confess ourselves surprised at the perfection to which the art of . crushing has been brought. Of all these mills we shall speak more particularly in our pictorial. . We learn that everything is prospering at 'Towa Hill. New claims are being opened, . the old ones still pushing in, new buildings . every day springing up, and everything in . the full tide of success.

Er. Epiror :—The question is often asked “what can be done to protect this community, preserve order and check the prevalence of vice?” All good citizens heartily depreeate the existing state of things, and the question recurs, what can be done? * # * * * * * The time is past for evasion of the true issue. There is no middle ground in questions which so vitaliy concern the public interest. I disclaim all wish to dictate to any man the course of policy heshall pursue; but let every mans principles be judged by the influence of his acts on the public weal. If it can be shown, that the public good requires that the present restraints on the business of burglers and incendiaries should be removed, thata few more gambling houses be quartered on the community, that a few more drinking saloons be added to four score now in operation, that a few more brazen-faced cogga Sr. Jouns Day, will be appropriately celebrated by the Masonic order, at Nevada city.

Peter, the Hermit, roused up Europe by his fanatic eloquence, and she madly sent her bravest and her best, to plant the red cross where the crescent floated. Chivalry considered it an earnest question asked by the monk of Amiens.—“Shall the Turk longer bear sway over the grave of our Faiths great Author?” But, it is now fully as earnest a question which the monarchs of Europe are asking, and the gallant Knights are on their way to bear the missive to the Russian Potentate. The ink will undoubtedly be red, with which the answer shall be written, andin the grim death-wrestle, turbaned and helmed heads go down togcther. We gather from reliable sources, the following view of the immense power which. the two leading nations can command. Turkey, whose forces have been thoroughly re-organized, and stand now upen a nearly equal footing with the best equipped armies of Europe, has at her disposal more than 280,000 infantry ; of whom 100,000 are regulars, and at least 20,000 regular cavalry, to which must be added the various squadrons of irregular horse, amounting at the lowest estimate to 30,000 more. Previously to the seizure of the Principalities, she possessed 400 pieces of artillery, and since the outbreak of hostilities care has been taken to increase this number. With these 300,000 Turks will presently be associated 100,000 men, the flower of the French and English armies, and this united force will be further supported by the allied fleet of 3000 guns in the Nuxine, to say nothing of the troops under the command of Schamyi, in the Caucasus, which for twenty years have destroyed a Russian army regularly every twelvemonth. Let us now enquire what Russia can oppose to this mighty combination. This author reduces the 910,060, represented in the official reports as the numerical force of the army, and which is magnified into the ineredible number of 2.000.000 by the Berlin “Kreuzgettung.” to 577,537, of which but 490,009 are available. Of these 577,000 men. Russia requires on the Danube, the shores of the ’ Black Sea. and in the Caucasns at least 460,000, in order to oppose the 490,000 Terkish, English, French, and Circassian troops. an will, moreover, experience the greatest difficulty in concentrating more than 109,000 upon any given point. An entrenched camp at Fokschany will be necessary to cover their retreat from the Principalities; a numerous corps of observation must remain before Kalafat ; Odessa and Cherson must be strongly garrisoned ; the Crimea will need a stroag force, at least 25,000 to 30,090 men, to protect it from an Anglo-French surprise, and from the Kuban-Caucasian army net a soldier can be spared. We have hitherto spokez simply of the Southern Russian frontier, and the immediate theatre of war in the Danubian provinces. If we now concede to the Czar an additional force of 200,000 men. it is difficult to understand how he will be able to provide for the defence of the western boundary of hisempire. At least 50,990 men will be required for the occupation of Poland, Jest the enthusiasm prevailing there in favor of the “orthodox destroyer” of its liberties should assume an inconvenient form of manifestation ; and in Courland, Livonia and Esthonia, 50,000 men will not suffice to defend those territories from being overrun by any disembarking force. The garrisons establisiied in Cronstadt and St. Petersburg demand large reinforcements of tried troops ; and, lastly, Finland and Lapland must not be left unguarded, partly on account of the Engtish fleet under Sir Charles Napier, and partly on account of the Swedes and Norwegians, who might possibly be disposed to take advantage of so favorable an opportunity to recover possession of the territory, of which they have been so basely robbed. In point of strength and physical force, Russia is no match for her opponents.—The active co-operation of Prussia and Austria alone can make the contest equal; and to this the Western Powers have it in their power to evoke a counter-demonstration, which would resemble an earthquake. For England. as the champion of the independence and liberties of Turkey. cannot now retreat ; her name, her history, and honor, nay, her existence, are at stake, SS NOS A Setiine Liquor To Ixpraxs.—It is perhaps, not generally known thata heavy penalty attaches to the crime of selling intoxicating drinks to the Indians, so numerous amongst us. Last week, a keeper of a restaurant was brought up, but plead most utter ignorance. Judge Foust could not however excuse him. and he was obliged to fork over the rhino. It is unnecessary to say more, than that our citizens are determined to push every case discovered, to extremity. We conceive it right, for the Indians, otherwise peaceable, once in liquor, become noisy and qnite trou. vlesome, CrarLys H. Bryan of Yuba, has most certainly made his mark as a legislator. He is . a lawyer, a Broderick democrat, and a most able debater. Possessed of much natural in. tellectual strength, and speaking in a solemn and convincing style, seldom indulging in le. vity, he scon gained a prominent position in . the Senate, which his shrewdness and tact, . permitted him easily to retain. He rather shuns public display, but when it becomes necessary, soon makes known “what manner of man he is.” He is both an original thinker and actor, and so, while he avoids all eccen. tricity, he yet sometimes astonishes his friends who have not been informed of his views upon the topic of vote or debate. We have seen him as we thought, struggling amid the . waves of error, but still admired his independent, bold and natural mode of thought and action. He isa fully unfolded man, and even shouid he fail in his present hopes, will never trip, stumble, and vanish. He will remain upon the stage, for California requires . such men. Puitip T. Hersert of Mariposa, has been . man of clear understanding, usually forti. fying his opinions with sound argument; at . any rate, he advocates them witha zeal, wor. ¢ay only of sincerity and truth. He is an effective, though not a graceful speaker. He was amember of many prominent committees, and few questions were matured without his advice. During the session, he made several speeches, a little severe at times, but suf. ficiently well worded and powerful,(although . wanting logic,) to show him a man of He is better described however, as a man of . . strong will, great prejudices, and who will icave no stone unturned to accomplish his purpose. Joun T. Crexsaaw of Nevada, is a man of talent, has been a close watcher of the pubUc business, and a useful member. He is courteous in debate, sometimes a little embellished in style, but always speaks in good taste. He possesses rather a contemplative mind, which in conversation might be mistaken for indecision. His position has rather been taken upon matters of general interest, and yet few have exceeded him in influence. He isa man much respected, and will command a strong vote in his own county. James W. Corrrotu, of Tuolumne, is another, and the last aspirant for Congressional honors of whom our space permits us to speak this week. Mr. Coffroth has been rather a troublesome man to his opponents, but not . considered as very severe or overbearing. He is pertinaceous and determined, and has followed near to the principles professed to his constituents. His course during the win. ter, would indicate a man likely to make a . strong run, should he be fortunate enough to secure the nomination. Such, (seems to us) the character of some of the men who are prominently spoken of for the important office, as seen from their reent public life. We selected their names from the multitude, as those which first occurred to us, not to advocate their merits, but to put the people at thought. It is for them to say who shall incorporate their personal history with the next Congress, and it is also for them to say, who shall retire to private life, with the bitter reflection that “monarchies are cruel and republics ungrateful.” Cutting Arrarr.—Quite a serious row occurred at a dance house in this village on last Saturday evening. A miner having said some unpalatable things to a woman, was slapped by her so severely that it knocked all matters of etiquette from among his general ideas. As a consequence, she went overboard, and he was boarded by sundry other hombres. The woman recovering, attacked . him with a knife, which he seizing, used. The woman and one of her friends were cut badly . —but we are informed by Dr. McCormick, that they will probably recover. ac nesses evs ipsnessssttserensceehisnspesereansnesonnnearin J We must ask our correspondents to) taake their communications as short as possi. ble.

We learn however, that at the various pla. ces of resort in our neighborhood, preparations are going on, which will be likely to cause every vehicle to be engaged for the afterpart of the day. At Storm’s Ranch, there will undoubtedly be acrowd. Besides its beautiful location, appointments, &c., we are apprised that the attractions of that day are to be of a varied and interesting character. A race between an Englishman and an Indian for $200 a side—horse racing—cockfighting—fight between a bear and dogs, or— bear and jackass, as the company shall decide,—several dog-fights—good music, anda big dinner, are among some of the things to be presented for the amusement of the people. if Preposea Rosixson Famiry.—The accident which we chronicled last week, is still retaining this popular family in town. It is thought, how. ever, that they will be able to start off again during the coming week. We are, however, pleased to learn that a movement is on foot among our citizens, to give them a benefit before they leave. Who are more worthy? They are citizens of this place, and have always shown an interest in the welfare of the town. Let others, fete and compliment those with them but a day; but let us benefit our own citizens, Known to deserving. We hope to see the matter proposed, successfully carried out. TRAPPING EXTRAORDINARY.—We are informlea by Capt. Conn, that on last Saturday, par. ties from Iowa Hill placed a trap in a cafion /—some eight miles from the hill, and suc. ceeded beyond their hopes. While watching ‘it froma distance, they observed a dozen . grizzlies around the trap, and after waiting . awhile, had the satisfaction of seeing seven descend. Owing however to the fall being too light, they retained only three. Two of these they have taken out, but the larger of the three, (who will weigh about seven hun. dred,) they feel a little timid in approaching. . He has torn the floor of the trap (three inch . plank) into splinters. A stout cage is being . built for his Bruinic majesty. ge Where shall I get a good bed? is a . question more often difficult to answer in . this country, than any other. Weare now . happily able to tell. Benton took us the oth er day over the new building adjoining the Beatty House, and there we saw the nicest chance for undisturbed comfortable sleeping, that we have for along time met with. No flea or bed bug will there “slip up on the unconscious traveller’? when he has no time to spare to attend to them, but the eight rooms . are all looking as neat as a bridal chamber. . Everything is new, from top to bottom, and we can most sincerely advise the public to . try them. Je What an important item to Californians, is a thunder storm in June. And yet. . we did have on the 12tb, a real old fashioned . bumper. All thanks to the clerk of the . weather—for—as standing in the door of our . office, we turned our gaze towards the beau. tiful valley of Wolf creek, all-bathed in glo. rious tints—the sunbeams reclining in wanton dalliance amid golden fog, it seemed almost like our old home. It gave usa sort of dreamy delicious delight, and linked us awhile with sweet memories. The bright hours of the past, came up afresh, and we were almost reconciled to their loss, while being convinced that we were once so happy. Frurr.—Berries in abundance are in close proximity to our village. We saw yesterday nearly a bushel of gooseberries, which two of our citizens gathered about one and a half miles from town. They were engaged in picking only about three hours. Some of the berries were as large as hazle nuts, PrrsonaL.—D. V. Gates, the tragedian and comedian arrived in town last evening on his way to Auburn and vicinity. He has had his usual success, which everybody knows has been almost invariably good, during a years travel. He is now direct from Iowa Hill. fue in publie virtue or private honor, if there ; is any choice between a well organized com. nity 1e of lawlessness and reckless . disregard of all moral restraint and sccial ohligation, then let us choose between them. Vone will avow the latter, though their every act tend to fasten it upon us. To an expensive organization involving a heavy tax for the support of a horde of officeseekers (found in every community) adhering like leeches to the public purse, and professing public spirit, only to conceal their insatiate thirst for spoils of office. I am as un. compromising/y opposed, as the most earnest opponent of incorporation. But, of this I claim, there is no necessity. To obviate this objection, make it a distinct condition, in the selection of requisite officers, that they shall receive no pay. It is asserted that men will not accept such trust, and perform the requi. site duties without pecuniary compensation. I will pledge ample surety, and become one of five men who shall pay a// necessary _salaries of officers, exclusive of Police. provided good and responsible men cannot be found in this community, who will cousent to accept the requisite offices and faithfully Cischarge the duties without salary or perquisite, and feel amply compensated by increased safety from the depredations of lawless men, by the preservation of order, and consequent gene. ral advantages to the community. The burden under the present arrangement, rests heavily and unequally on a few, ant ; cline aid because the burden is not imposed on all property holders. We want the sanction of law to accomplish this, and that end can be attained on/y by the incorporation sought for. Weask the co-operation of all good citizens. JVo man, however arrogant or unpretending, can divest himself of an influence on society, and that influence ewill be felt. From sone, we expect opposition, for there are men in this community who profess much interest in its welfare. yet, whose whole influence is thrown in the scale of vice, and ali that degrades man, and who, if they have no respect for themselves, would do well to show. at least, some respect for wives and daughters, mothers and sisters in those distant homes. There are men, once highly esteemed for virtue, stern integrity and honor, who here shrink from the gaze of all. save their associates, as the morning dawn detects them seeking their homes, after a nights sitting at the gambling table, or a nights debauch, in a house of infamy. There are young men of talent, and once of high promise to whom an honorable and brilliant career was, aye, andis attainable; but what are their prospects, while yielding to unrestricted indulgence in their fashionable habits? Can they expect the confidence of the community while neglecting an honorable busihess or profession, to join in Bacchanalian tevels, and while the small hours of the night habitually find them, with a flushed cheek and unsteady hand, courting fortune at the gambling table, or passing through the streets like ashipinarolling sea? What infatuation!! As well attempt to seize an “Ignis Fatuus,” as win at such odds! I shall be told that men have full right to spend money as they choose; but, this I deny, if by so doing, they inflict an injury on the community, or sacrifice private rights, by absorbing funds which justly belong to creditors. The latterisa common case, as numbers in this community, will attest. Men spend hundreds and thousands at the gambling table, and plead misfortune, and consequent inability to discharge a paltry debt. The same remark will apply to dissipation, in all its forms. Is this right, and is it desirable or commendable? If so, let us foster these practices, vulgarly styled vices; but if wrong, if prejudicial to the best interests of the community, then let us, like men, apply a remedy. We look to the press as the conservator of public virtue, morality and order. If these are assailed and in jeopardy, let the press raise its voice of warning against the dangers which beset us, as individuals and a community. Letits precepts be fortified by example, and it will not fail to be a “terror to evil doers,” and a “tower of strength’? to the friends of good order and virtue. CITIZEN.

In that little book published at the Union office, styled the “Last night of the Session,” Col.

No less than a dozen names are now hoisted in different portions of the State, each having some pretension, and concerning whom, their several friends make urgent appeal.

In the tunnels, and placers, an average yield has been told us. In quartz mining, the amount has been more than heretofore. From the Empire and Gold Hill Co’s, we heard flattering accounts. During the week we visited the new mill of Tibbals & Co. and must confess ourselves surprised at the perfection to which the art of . crushing has been brought. Of all these mills we shall speak more particularly in our pictorial. . We learn that everything is prospering at 'Towa Hill.

Peter, the Hermit, roused up Europe by his fanatic eloquence, and she madly sent her bravest and her best, to plant the red cross where the crescent floated. Chivalry considered it an earnest question asked by the monk of Amiens.—“Shall the Turk longer bear sway over the grave of our Faiths great Author?” But, it is now fully as earnest a question which the monarchs of Europe are asking, and the gallant Knights are on their way to bear the missive to the Russian Potentate. The ink will undoubtedly be red, with which the answer shall be written, andin the grim death-wrestle, turbaned and helmed heads go down togcther. We gather from reliable sources, the following view of the immense power which. the two leading nations can command. Turkey, whose forces have been thoroughly re-organized, and stand now upen a nearly equal footing with the best equipped armies of Europe, has at her disposal more than 280,000 infantry ; of whom 100,000 are regulars, and at least 20,000 regular cavalry, to which must be added the various squadrons of irregular horse, amounting at the lowest estimate to 30,000 more. Previously to the seizure of the Principalities, she possessed 400 pieces of artillery, and since the outbreak of hostilities care has been taken to increase this number. With these 300,000 Turks will presently be associated 100,000 men, the flower of the French and English armies, and this united force will be further supported by the allied fleet of 3000 guns in the Nuxine, to say nothing of the troops under the command of Schamyi, in the Caucasus, which for twenty years have destroyed a Russian army regularly every twelvemonth. Let us now enquire what Russia can oppose to this mighty combination. This author reduces the 910,060, represented in the official reports as the numerical force of the army, and which is magnified into the ineredible number of 2.000.000 by the Berlin “Kreuzgettung.” to 577,537, of which but 490,009 are available. Of these 577,000 men. Russia requires on the Danube, the shores of the ’ Black Sea. and in the Caucasns at least 460,000, in order to oppose the 490,000 Terkish, English, French, and Circassian troops. an will, moreover, experience the greatest difficulty in concentrating more than 109,000 upon any given point. An entrenched camp at Fokschany will be necessary to cover their retreat from the Principalities; a numerous corps of observation must remain before Kalafat ; Odessa and Cherson must be strongly garrisoned ; the Crimea will need a stroag force, at least 25,000 to 30,090 men, to protect it from an Anglo-French surprise, and from the Kuban-Caucasian army net a soldier can be spared. We have hitherto spokez simply of the Southern Russian frontier, and the immediate theatre of war in the Danubian provinces. If we now concede to the Czar an additional force of 200,000 men. it is difficult to understand how he will be able to provide for the defence of the western boundary of hisempire. At least 50,990 men will be required for the occupation of Poland, Jest the enthusiasm prevailing there in favor of the “orthodox destroyer” of its liberties should assume an inconvenient form of manifestation ; and in Courland, Livonia and Esthonia, 50,000 men will not suffice to defend those territories from being overrun by any disembarking force. The garrisons establisiied in Cronstadt and St. Petersburg demand large reinforcements of tried troops ; and, lastly, Finland and Lapland must not be left unguarded, partly on account of the Engtish fleet under Sir Charles Napier, and partly on account of the Swedes and Norwegians, who might possibly be disposed to take advantage of so favorable an opportunity to recover possession of the territory, of which they have been so basely robbed. In point of strength and physical force, Russia is no match for her opponents.—The active co-operation of Prussia and Austria alone can make the contest equal; and to this the Western Powers have it in their power to evoke a counter-demonstration, which would resemble an earthquake. For England. as the champion of the independence and liberties of Turkey. cannot now retreat ; her name, her history, and honor, nay, her existence, are at stake, SS NOS A Setiine Liquor To Ixpraxs.—It is perhaps, not generally known thata heavy penalty attaches to the crime of selling intoxicating drinks to the Indians, so numerous amongst us. Last week, a keeper of a restaurant was brought up, but plead most utter ignorance. Judge Foust could not however excuse him. and he was obliged to fork over the rhino. It is unnecessary to say more, than that our citizens are determined to push every case discovered, to extremity. We conceive it right, for the Indians, otherwise peaceable, once in liquor, become noisy and qnite trou. vlesome, CrarLys H. Bryan of Yuba, has most certainly made his mark as a legislator. He is . a lawyer, a Broderick democrat, and a most able debater. Possessed of much natural in. tellectual strength, and speaking in a solemn and convincing style, seldom indulging in le. vity, he scon gained a prominent position in . the Senate, which his shrewdness and tact, . permitted him easily to retain. He rather shuns public display, but when it becomes necessary, soon makes known “what manner of man he is.” He is both an original thinker and actor, and so, while he avoids all eccen. tricity, he yet sometimes astonishes his friends who have not been informed of his views upon the topic of vote or debate. We have seen him as we thought, struggling amid the . waves of error, but still admired his independent, bold and natural mode of thought and action. He isa fully unfolded man, and even shouid he fail in his present hopes, will never trip, stumble, and vanish. He will remain upon the stage, for California requires . such men. Puitip T. Hersert of Mariposa, has been . man of clear understanding, usually forti. fying his opinions with sound argument; at . any rate, he advocates them witha zeal, wor. ¢ay only of sincerity and truth. He is an effective, though not a graceful speaker. He was amember of many prominent committees, and few questions were matured without his advice. During the session, he made several speeches, a little severe at times, but suf. ficiently well worded and powerful,(although . wanting logic,) to show him a man of He is better described however, as a man of . . strong will, great prejudices, and who will icave no stone unturned to accomplish his purpose. Joun T. Crexsaaw of Nevada, is a man of talent, has been a close watcher of the pubUc business, and a useful member. He is courteous in debate, sometimes a little embellished in style, but always speaks in good taste. He possesses rather a contemplative mind, which in conversation might be mistaken for indecision. His position has rather been taken upon matters of general interest, and yet few have exceeded him in influence. He isa man much respected, and will command a strong vote in his own county. James W. Corrrotu, of Tuolumne, is another, and the last aspirant for Congressional honors of whom our space permits us to speak this week. Mr. Coffroth has been rather a troublesome man to his opponents, but not . considered as very severe or overbearing. He is pertinaceous and determined, and has followed near to the principles professed to his constituents. His course during the win. ter, would indicate a man likely to make a . strong run, should he be fortunate enough to secure the nomination. Such, (seems to us) the character of some of the men who are prominently spoken of for the important office, as seen from their reent public life. We selected their names from the multitude, as those which first occurred to us, not to advocate their merits, but to put the people at thought. It is for them to say who shall incorporate their personal history with the next Congress, and it is also for them to say, who shall retire to private life, with the bitter reflection that “monarchies are cruel and republics ungrateful.” Cutting Arrarr.—Quite a serious row occurred at a dance house in this village on last Saturday evening. A miner having said some unpalatable things to a woman, was slapped by her so severely that it knocked all matters of etiquette from among his general ideas. As a consequence, she went overboard, and he was boarded by sundry other hombres. The woman recovering, attacked . him with a knife, which he seizing, used. The woman and one of her friends were cut badly . —but we are informed by Dr. McCormick, that they will probably recover. ac nesses evs ipsnessssttserensceehisnspesereansnesonnnearin J We must ask our correspondents to) taake their communications as short as possi. ble.

At Storm’s Ranch, there will undoubtedly be acrowd. Besides its beautiful location, appointments, &c., we are apprised that the attractions of that day are to be of a varied and interesting character. A race between an Englishman and an Indian for $200 a side—horse racing—cockfighting—fight between a bear and dogs, or— bear and jackass, as the company shall decide,—several dog-fights—good music, anda big dinner, are among some of the things to be presented for the amusement of the people. if Preposea Rosixson Famiry.—The accident which we chronicled last week, is still retaining this popular family in town. It is thought, how. ever, that they will be able to start off again during the coming week. We are, however, pleased to learn that a movement is on foot among our citizens, to give them a benefit before they leave. Who are more worthy? They are citizens of this place, and have always shown an interest in the welfare of the town. Let others, fete and compliment those with them but a day; but let us benefit our own citizens, Known to deserving. We hope to see the matter proposed, successfully carried out. TRAPPING EXTRAORDINARY.—We are informlea by Capt. Conn, that on last Saturday, par. ties from Iowa Hill placed a trap in a cafion /—some eight miles from the hill, and suc. ceeded beyond their hopes. While watching ‘it froma distance, they observed a dozen . grizzlies around the trap, and after waiting . awhile, had the satisfaction of seeing seven descend. Owing however to the fall being too light, they retained only three. Two of these they have taken out, but the larger of the three, (who will weigh about seven hun. dred,) they feel a little timid in approaching. . He has torn the floor of the trap (three inch . plank) into splinters. A stout cage is being . built for his Bruinic majesty. ge Where shall I get a good bed? is a . question more often difficult to answer in . this country, than any other.

And yet. . we did have on the 12tb, a real old fashioned . bumper. All thanks to the clerk of the . weather—for—as standing in the door of our . office, we turned our gaze towards the beau. tiful valley of Wolf creek, all-bathed in glo. rious tints—the sunbeams reclining in wanton dalliance amid golden fog, it seemed almost like our old home. It gave usa sort of dreamy delicious delight, and linked us awhile with sweet memories. The bright hours of the past, came up afresh, and we were almost reconciled to their loss, while being convinced that we were once so happy. Frurr.—Berries in abundance are in close proximity to our village. We saw yesterday nearly a bushel of gooseberries, which two of our citizens gathered about one and a half miles from town. They were engaged in picking only about three hours. Some of the berries were as large as hazle nuts, PrrsonaL.—D. V.

Vone will avow the latter, though their every act tend to fasten it upon us. To an expensive organization involving a heavy tax for the support of a horde of officeseekers (found in every community) adhering like leeches to the public purse, and professing public spirit, only to conceal their insatiate thirst for spoils of office. I am as un. compromising/y opposed, as the most earnest opponent of incorporation. But, of this I claim, there is no necessity. To obviate this objection, make it a distinct condition, in the selection of requisite officers, that they shall receive no pay. It is asserted that men will not accept such trust, and perform the requi. site duties without pecuniary compensation. I will pledge ample surety, and become one of five men who shall pay a// necessary _salaries of officers, exclusive of Police. provided good and responsible men cannot be found in this community, who will cousent to accept the requisite offices and faithfully Cischarge the duties without salary or perquisite, and feel amply compensated by increased safety from the depredations of lawless men, by the preservation of order, and consequent gene. ral advantages to the community. The burden under the present arrangement, rests heavily and unequally on a few, ant ; cline aid because the burden is not imposed on all property holders. We want the sanction of law to accomplish this, and that end can be attained on/y by the incorporation sought for. Weask the co-operation of all good citizens. JVo man, however arrogant or unpretending, can divest himself of an influence on society, and that influence ewill be felt. From sone, we expect opposition, for there are men in this community who profess much interest in its welfare. yet, whose whole influence is thrown in the scale of vice, and ali that degrades man, and who, if they have no respect for themselves, would do well to show. at least, some respect for wives and daughters, mothers and sisters in those distant homes. There are men, once highly esteemed for virtue, stern integrity and honor, who here shrink from the gaze of all. save their associates, as the morning dawn detects them seeking their homes, after a nights sitting at the gambling table, or a nights debauch, in a house of infamy. There are young men of talent, and once of high promise to whom an honorable and brilliant career was, aye, andis attainable; but what are their prospects, while yielding to unrestricted indulgence in their fashionable habits? Can they expect the confidence of the community while neglecting an honorable busihess or profession, to join in Bacchanalian tevels, and while the small hours of the night habitually find them, with a flushed cheek and unsteady hand, courting fortune at the gambling table, or passing through the streets like ashipinarolling sea? What infatuation!! As well attempt to seize an “Ignis Fatuus,” as win at such odds! I shall be told that men have full right to spend money as they choose; but, this I deny, if by so doing, they inflict an injury on the community, or sacrifice private rights, by absorbing funds which justly belong to creditors. The latterisa common case, as numbers in this community, will attest. Men spend hundreds and thousands at the gambling table, and plead misfortune, and consequent inability to discharge a paltry debt. The same remark will apply to dissipation, in all its forms. Is this right, and is it desirable or commendable? If so, let us foster these practices, vulgarly styled vices; but if wrong, if prejudicial to the best interests of the community, then let us, like men, apply a remedy. We look to the press as the conservator of public virtue, morality and order. If these are assailed and in jeopardy, let the press raise its voice of warning against the dangers which beset us, as individuals and a community. Letits precepts be fortified by example, and it will not fail to be a “terror to evil doers,” and a “tower of strength’? to the friends of good order and virtue. CITIZEN.
