READ SAS EE SE TAPES ay EE SE ERT TE From the New ¥Verk mes of J ly ith. What is Peaceable Dissolution. There is, no doubt, a class of men among ‘us—tbere may be in the Government—who . ‘have a vague expectation of a final separa‘tion between the North and the South, and ‘who beyin to think a peaceable dissolution would be better than this waste of wealth, this slow destruction of property aud busi‘ness. We do not mean that these people are ‘numerous. They scarcely show themselves, ‘either in public or private Still they do exist, . and their unexpressed desires and vague hopes of a peace or truce, which should bring separation, ought to be met. based on an instinct—thé instinct of nationality; but as is often tree of popular inStincts, it is really coincident with the highest . interest. The vast country stretching from the Atlantic and the Gulf to the Rocky moun tains must be inhabited by one people aud governed by one Government. There 1s now no question of it. not the Monroe docirine, or the doctrine=it is the duvctrine Northern ple must either be exterminated or be subject. . We call upon those timid people who may be thinking of a final separation as possible, to make the supposition a few moments of an Independent Southern Republic. She ‘has gained her independence by her own valor and our pusillanimity. The masses of her population will ignorantly despise, as they have done before, the Northern bard laboring and industrious classes. She will be of necessity a military Republic, based on the labor of slaves. A large standing ariny will be supported by her to protect. her ter ritory and win new fields for the slaves, The lines of the Putomac and the Obio Wwonld bristle with enormous batteries ; the Missis. sippi would be guarded by tortresses which defy attack. After a few years of peace she would have bought fleets of small iron steamers, which, in case of war, could iprivateer among onr commerce over every sea. equipped, and would soon be far more than ‘a match for a peaceful and agricultural population like the most of our own. Thien comes the inevitable expansion which her slave system demands. Mexico would be invaded ; Central America and the key of the Pacific struggled for; Cuba assaulted or Southern Calitornia overrun. We are forced to interfere or to lose our power on the! be cut off from our }j Western continent, Pacific possessions, and see a grand slave empire erected over all the region from the . Potomac to the Isthmus. Still more, she would soon contest with us the Keys of the Gulf at the Tortugas. Then all along the ‘Ohio, the Potomac,the Mississippi, would be ‘incessant wranglings and collisions over duties and customs. Single townships, even single States, would be carrying devastation into each other's territories. Added to all this would be the everlasting dispute and . battle over the slaves. The slaves ran away and cannot be retaken, the masters in re. venge make a foray on free citizens. One act of violence breeds another, and the border land would become again, as it did in Indian times, the land of blood. Any one ot these, acd thousands of similar cases, would breed a war within just sufficient time for the South to recover its strength. The next war, too, would not be like the present, where the advantage is all with the Union. Then the South would be a trained military power, with fortresses aad sufficient “of materiel, with a fleet of privateers, with the prestige of previous success and the hope “of boundless plunder, and the spur of an insatiable ambition. Our own people would be discouraged by the ill success of the first struggle ; commerce would plead tor peace ; business would deprecate any turther . struggle; traitors would arise among us, and a not improbable result would be the subjagation and humiliation of the sterdy North beneath the aristocratic, military Repnbiic . of the South, century between the two combatants, until, when utterly exhausted, some powerful foreign conquctor should interfere to subdue both, are some of the probable effects of a peaceable disunion of the North and South. _ No, timid friends and foreign advisers, this js a war aloutrance. There is no peace or trace possible. alone for honor, but for existense. ‘conquer or be conquered. War now wader the Unien is a thousand times easier and ‘more humane than war with a foreign power. he gage is thrown down—the weapons are drawn—the lists are cleared, and for a life. and-death struggle. £2) 8 Ear Anecpots oF Wasuninetoy.—At Cambridge, General Washington bad heard that the colored soldiers were not to be depended ‘on for sentries. So one night, when the pagsWord was “Cambridge,” he went outside the amp, put on an overcoat, and then approach‘ed a colored sentinel. “Who go dar?” cried the sentinel. “A friend,” replied Washington. “Friend, advance unarmed, and gib de tountersign,” said Pompey. Washington came up and said -‘Roxbury.” UNo sar . ” returned the colored soldier. “Charleston,” said Washington. Pompey immediately exclaimed, “I tell . ou, Massa Washington, no man kin go by cont ‘out he say, “Cambridge’!” Washington said “Cambridge,” and went y ; and the next day the colored gentleman was relieved of all future necessity for attending to that particular branch of military . duty. This grand . uprising of the free States has been in part } This is: of nature. . Whatever poptlation objects to this princi. Her troops would become drilled and . Such resutts, or harrassing, . devastating civil wars, continued for half a, We of tie North fight not! We must The Fuiure of Mountain Towns. Whatis to be the future of our n:ountain half dread to hear it answered? At this / moment there are hundreds of business men business, of course, who procluim that they }ure “gone in.” ‘their stures, look up and down street, yawn, stretch themselves, and retire to mourn over dull times. Those of what the phrenologist . would term the nervous billious tempera‘ment, walk hastily up and down their places of business, or work desperately for a few! minutes, and then subside into chronic _dulluess, with their chairs tilted back, their feet against the stove-pipe, while they read ,the daily pwpers for the twentieth time. . Times are dull everywhere; business is 'Stagnated, and people want to know the reason of it. “Business is overdone, of course; must be the answer. that We all know that, so you may as well spare us the repetition of such unpleasant information.” Softly, gentlemen. There are two ways to read old proverbs, sage and indisputable as the con‘Clusions invariably appear: and in like manner, accepted facts, when exhibited in another light, vary in interpretation, like :Manuscript written in invisible ink when held to the fire. In the first place, business in the moun‘tains 13 centralizing—concentrating into central locations. There can be no questiva of that; and for this there are two reasons: the exhaustion of ‘the mines in certain districts, and the increased facilties for the delivery of merchanagise. Thus, towns jhaving a purely local dependence must inevitably decline with the decline of the mines of that immediate iocality. There are . towns for example, entirely dependent upon river mining; perhaps of a very limited ; portion of the river, at that—the district . between two canons, possibly. The mining in these locations is now on a very extensive scale. As] heard a miner lately remark, “they employ fewer hands and more head work.” Qnecompany will occasionally . claim an entire bar; and though they take ; Out a furtane, it is no benefit to the trader, i Who naturally enough sighs for the good lold times. Of course, then, as there are fewer miners there must be less business: ;and as these localities have been worked ; over half a dozen times, and the discovery of anything new is bighly improbable, the . sooner the citizens of such places “secede” ithe becter. The companies that remain are ; doing well, and will in all probability con. tinue to do well for years to come; but they . can buy their goods at the large towns, six, eight or ten miles away. They donet need even to ieave their claims—they cau send an order, and have their goods delivered free ;of additional charge. What is the use, then. of traders lingering about these desolate places, when there are plenty of rising towns and undeveloped districts coveting their capital and energy ? But the cities and towns that possess a central location are also dull. Their merchants complain of dull times as loudly as anybody. How are you going to get over that? Well, in the first place, “dull times” {is a chronic disorder among merchants, like . fever and agne, asthma, consumption, and . other complaints of a similar nature. Ounce become an invalid, and you will always ‘remain oue; if not sick from a direct attack, iyou suffer from a sympathetic ene—and 'there is only one cure in either case, “a . change of air.’ —Monntaineer. . a mame Henness Pass Posr Rourn.—aAt the last . session of Congress an act was passed, which . . ! . . . . . was approved by the President on the 27th . Peb., 1861, establishing certain post routes in several States, among which is one designated as follows: “From Carson City, in the Territory of Utah, to Nevada City, passing over the Sierra Nevada, through the Hlenness Pass, with mail routes diverging therefrom: first, one leaving said route at Jackson’s Ranch, near the western end of Henness Pass, to Downieville, Sierra county ; and the second, leaving at Lake City, in the county of Nevada, via North San Juan, to Marysville, Yuba county.” There are nut many people, in this section Of California, aware of the establishment of , this post route; but the entire act of Coni gress is to be found in the San Francisco Herald, of the 13th inst, where it is pub . lished by authority. This route, it is need. less for us to state, is of vast importance to i this portion of the State of California as well as to a large district of the Washoe country. . That the Postmaster General has not yet authorized mail service upon it is, no doubt, ‘owing to the ungraded state of the Henness , Pass rond. Notwithstanding that the road is now filled with teams and mounted travelers, it is not yet in a condition to fully war-rant the placing of a line of stage coaches /upon it It is estimated, by many persons who have recently traveled the road, and who are competent judges of road making affairs, that the sum of ten thousand dollars, judiciously expended, is amply sufficient to make this road the most leve!, best graded, and straightest route across the Sierra Nevada. It gratifies us to be able to state that a company is now energetically engaged in completing the road between Jackson’s and Virginia City, and that, ere long, it will be in ample order for any class of stage coaches.—Transcript. -—-—_+ @ o— Toe Frexch Amsvtaxncr System.—A ‘number of medical gentlemen met lately in this city to discuss the medical equip ments neressary for an army. Drawings were produced of an ambulance made after the latest pattern used in the French army in Algeria and the Crimea. This ambulance iis an omnibus shaped vehiele, to be drawn by two or moré horses, weighing some twelve ‘hundred pounds, bit constructed in such a manner that it may be easily detached, ‘separated in several pieces in the* interior, . the most important portion easily carried by severnl men. The interior is, when fully . standing, a row of beds, earrying six or eight mén, with great ease, but when crowded, . may be forced to transport three tinies that lnumber. Each bed is a “field stretcher” or . portable cot, which takes the wounded . man from the field, and without any fatigu. ing change places him in this portable hospital. Anindia-rabber bath is also attached. . —Scientific American. speculating on it; and bundreds out of} Men stand at the door of . Business Cards. "WE AL KELLY, PHYSICIAN & SURGEON.

READ SAS EE SE TAPES ay EE SE ERT TE From the New ¥Verk mes of J ly ith. What is Peaceable Dissolution. There is, no doubt, a class of men among ‘us—tbere may be in the Government—who . ‘have a vague expectation of a final separa‘tion between the North and the South, and ‘who beyin to think a peaceable dissolution would be better than this waste of wealth, this slow destruction of property aud busi‘ness. We do not mean that these people are ‘numerous. They scarcely show themselves, ‘either in public or private Still they do exist, . and their unexpressed desires and vague hopes of a peace or truce, which should bring separation, ought to be met. based on an instinct—thé instinct of nationality; but as is often tree of popular inStincts, it is really coincident with the highest . interest. The vast country stretching from the Atlantic and the Gulf to the Rocky moun tains must be inhabited by one people aud governed by one Government. There 1s now no question of it. not the Monroe docirine, or the doctrine=it is the duvctrine Northern ple must either be exterminated or be subject. . We call upon those timid people who may be thinking of a final separation as possible, to make the supposition a few moments of an Independent Southern Republic. She ‘has gained her independence by her own valor and our pusillanimity. The masses of her population will ignorantly despise, as they have done before, the Northern bard laboring and industrious classes. She will be of necessity a military Republic, based on the labor of slaves. A large standing ariny will be supported by her to protect. her ter ritory and win new fields for the slaves, The lines of the Putomac and the Obio Wwonld bristle with enormous batteries ; the Missis. sippi would be guarded by tortresses which defy attack. After a few years of peace she would have bought fleets of small iron steamers, which, in case of war, could iprivateer among onr commerce over every sea. equipped, and would soon be far more than ‘a match for a peaceful and agricultural population like the most of our own. Thien comes the inevitable expansion which her slave system demands. Mexico would be invaded ; Central America and the key of the Pacific struggled for; Cuba assaulted or Southern Calitornia overrun. We are forced to interfere or to lose our power on the! be cut off from our }j Western continent, Pacific possessions, and see a grand slave empire erected over all the region from the . Potomac to the Isthmus. Still more, she would soon contest with us the Keys of the Gulf at the Tortugas. Then all along the ‘Ohio, the Potomac,the Mississippi, would be ‘incessant wranglings and collisions over duties and customs. Single townships, even single States, would be carrying devastation into each other's territories. Added to all this would be the everlasting dispute and . battle over the slaves. The slaves ran away and cannot be retaken, the masters in re. venge make a foray on free citizens. One act of violence breeds another, and the border land would become again, as it did in Indian times, the land of blood. Any one ot these, acd thousands of similar cases, would breed a war within just sufficient time for the South to recover its strength. The next war, too, would not be like the present, where the advantage is all with the Union. Then the South would be a trained military power, with fortresses aad sufficient “of materiel, with a fleet of privateers, with the prestige of previous success and the hope “of boundless plunder, and the spur of an insatiable ambition. Our own people would be discouraged by the ill success of the first struggle ; commerce would plead tor peace ; business would deprecate any turther . struggle; traitors would arise among us, and a not improbable result would be the subjagation and humiliation of the sterdy North beneath the aristocratic, military Repnbiic . of the South, century between the two combatants, until, when utterly exhausted, some powerful foreign conquctor should interfere to subdue both, are some of the probable effects of a peaceable disunion of the North and South. _ No, timid friends and foreign advisers, this js a war aloutrance. There is no peace or trace possible. alone for honor, but for existense. ‘conquer or be conquered. War now wader the Unien is a thousand times easier and ‘more humane than war with a foreign power. he gage is thrown down—the weapons are drawn—the lists are cleared, and for a life. and-death struggle. £2) 8 Ear Anecpots oF Wasuninetoy.—At Cambridge, General Washington bad heard that the colored soldiers were not to be depended ‘on for sentries. So one night, when the pagsWord was “Cambridge,” he went outside the amp, put on an overcoat, and then approach‘ed a colored sentinel. “Who go dar?” cried the sentinel. “A friend,” replied Washington. “Friend, advance unarmed, and gib de tountersign,” said Pompey. Washington came up and said -‘Roxbury.” UNo sar . ” returned the colored soldier. “Charleston,” said Washington. Pompey immediately exclaimed, “I tell . ou, Massa Washington, no man kin go by cont ‘out he say, “Cambridge’!” Washington said “Cambridge,” and went y ; and the next day the colored gentleman was relieved of all future necessity for attending to that particular branch of military . duty. This grand . uprising of the free States has been in part } This is: of nature. . Whatever poptlation objects to this princi. Her troops would become drilled and . Such resutts, or harrassing, . devastating civil wars, continued for half a, We of tie North fight not! We must The Fuiure of Mountain Towns. Whatis to be the future of our n:ountain half dread to hear it answered? At this / moment there are hundreds of business men business, of course, who procluim that they }ure “gone in.” ‘their stures, look up and down street, yawn, stretch themselves, and retire to mourn over dull times. Those of what the phrenologist . would term the nervous billious tempera‘ment, walk hastily up and down their places of business, or work desperately for a few! minutes, and then subside into chronic _dulluess, with their chairs tilted back, their feet against the stove-pipe, while they read ,the daily pwpers for the twentieth time. . Times are dull everywhere; business is 'Stagnated, and people want to know the reason of it. “Business is overdone, of course; must be the answer. that We all know that, so you may as well spare us the repetition of such unpleasant information.” Softly, gentlemen. There are two ways to read old proverbs, sage and indisputable as the con‘Clusions invariably appear: and in like manner, accepted facts, when exhibited in another light, vary in interpretation, like :Manuscript written in invisible ink when held to the fire. In the first place, business in the moun‘tains 13 centralizing—concentrating into central locations. There can be no questiva of that; and for this there are two reasons: the exhaustion of ‘the mines in certain districts, and the increased facilties for the delivery of merchanagise. Thus, towns jhaving a purely local dependence must inevitably decline with the decline of the mines of that immediate iocality. There are . towns for example, entirely dependent upon river mining; perhaps of a very limited ; portion of the river, at that—the district . between two canons, possibly. The mining in these locations is now on a very extensive scale. As] heard a miner lately remark, “they employ fewer hands and more head work.” Qnecompany will occasionally . claim an entire bar; and though they take ; Out a furtane, it is no benefit to the trader, i Who naturally enough sighs for the good lold times. Of course, then, as there are fewer miners there must be less business: ;and as these localities have been worked ; over half a dozen times, and the discovery of anything new is bighly improbable, the . sooner the citizens of such places “secede” ithe becter. The companies that remain are ; doing well, and will in all probability con. tinue to do well for years to come; but they . can buy their goods at the large towns, six, eight or ten miles away. They donet need even to ieave their claims—they cau send an order, and have their goods delivered free ;of additional charge. What is the use, then. of traders lingering about these desolate places, when there are plenty of rising towns and undeveloped districts coveting their capital and energy ? But the cities and towns that possess a central location are also dull. Their merchants complain of dull times as loudly as anybody. How are you going to get over that? Well, in the first place, “dull times” {is a chronic disorder among merchants, like . fever and agne, asthma, consumption, and . other complaints of a similar nature. Ounce become an invalid, and you will always ‘remain oue; if not sick from a direct attack, iyou suffer from a sympathetic ene—and 'there is only one cure in either case, “a . change of air.’ —Monntaineer. . a mame Henness Pass Posr Rourn.—aAt the last . session of Congress an act was passed, which . . ! . . . . . was approved by the President on the 27th . Peb., 1861, establishing certain post routes in several States, among which is one designated as follows: “From Carson City, in the Territory of Utah, to Nevada City, passing over the Sierra Nevada, through the Hlenness Pass, with mail routes diverging therefrom: first, one leaving said route at Jackson’s Ranch, near the western end of Henness Pass, to Downieville, Sierra county ; and the second, leaving at Lake City, in the county of Nevada, via North San Juan, to Marysville, Yuba county.” There are nut many people, in this section Of California, aware of the establishment of , this post route; but the entire act of Coni gress is to be found in the San Francisco Herald, of the 13th inst, where it is pub . lished by authority. This route, it is need. less for us to state, is of vast importance to i this portion of the State of California as well as to a large district of the Washoe country. . That the Postmaster General has not yet authorized mail service upon it is, no doubt, ‘owing to the ungraded state of the Henness , Pass rond. Notwithstanding that the road is now filled with teams and mounted travelers, it is not yet in a condition to fully war-rant the placing of a line of stage coaches /upon it It is estimated, by many persons who have recently traveled the road, and who are competent judges of road making affairs, that the sum of ten thousand dollars, judiciously expended, is amply sufficient to make this road the most leve!, best graded, and straightest route across the Sierra Nevada. It gratifies us to be able to state that a company is now energetically engaged in completing the road between Jackson’s and Virginia City, and that, ere long, it will be in ample order for any class of stage coaches.—Transcript. -—-—_+ @ o— Toe Frexch Amsvtaxncr System.—A ‘number of medical gentlemen met lately in this city to discuss the medical equip ments neressary for an army. Drawings were produced of an ambulance made after the latest pattern used in the French army in Algeria and the Crimea. This ambulance iis an omnibus shaped vehiele, to be drawn by two or moré horses, weighing some twelve ‘hundred pounds, bit constructed in such a manner that it may be easily detached, ‘separated in several pieces in the* interior, . the most important portion easily carried by severnl men. The interior is, when fully . standing, a row of beds, earrying six or eight mén, with great ease, but when crowded, . may be forced to transport three tinies that lnumber. Each bed is a “field stretcher” or . portable cot, which takes the wounded . man from the field, and without any fatigu. ing change places him in this portable hospital.
