The Gleaner disposes of the duelist ina single sentence, by saying: “He is a coward who has not the courage to disregard the feudal law of some other time and country, and obey the laws of his own country and those of morality.” > There are 33,000 post offices in the United States. It is proposed to place rt each one a box in which to receive subscriptions for the completion of the Washington monument. Twenty-six of the eighty-seven traders in Mariposa county, according to the Gazette, are Italians—more than of any other nationality. The Jews come next. REE EONS SSE Soren The assessed value of property in Marys. , ville is $3,633,391; and the total tax on this amount at, at $1 25 on the hundred is $4%397 18. A manufactory of sand paper and glue is soon to be started at the Bay. The best eheap glue now used in the State is made at Marysville. Telegraph wires now extend as far west of St. Louis as Atchison, amd are being carried still farther tewards the Pacific. The assessed value ‘of property in Yuba eounty is $5,383,550—showing a decrease ef nearly half a million since last year. oe The San Francisco Fire Department has a fand of about $30,000. —_———_+ Cuanoine Names.—We recollect that we . urged upon: the legislature last Winter the propriety of putting 2 step to the applications for statutes changing the name of the applicants. We urged this npow the ground that such statutes were wholly unnecessary. Every man in this country and in England has a right to choose his own name, and to change it as often as he pleases. There is no law to prohibit it, and as for contracts made in the assumed name, they are perfectly valid, because, by the act of signing the name, he adopts it, and is, thereby, estepped from denying it. The practice might indeed be carried to such an extent as to become a pubhe evil, and one which would call for legislative imterposition. But, as . the thing now stands, tZere is nothing to} prevent any member of the community from using any signature he chooses to adopt. His neighbors may also designate bim: by } any name they please, so that the appeliation does not amount to a libel.— Standard. “Wat Are You Dona Tuere?’—We heard a good one of a certain prominent politician who lives not very far from Marysville. During the late political campaign, Mr. B. stumped his county for the ticket. At ene of the towns in Yuba county he was addressing an audience, and wishing to substantiate some argument, he turned around to get some printed documents to read to his auditors. Upon turning about te confront the multitude he was surprised to find that his hearers had all left, except one individual who was leaning up against a tree! The speaker enquired, ‘“ What in h—I are you doing there?” The poor fellow stammered out, “I'm 1-l-listening to your s-speech.” B.at this juncture presented a revolver and exclaimed, “‘ D—n you, leave !” And he did leaye very suddenly, and at the present time is unable fully to explain B’s ideas of the late: political issues.—Mountain Messenger. aes Ee SS MaRYsviILLE Trape.—Our city is at present enjoying a fine mouwmtain trade. Large quantities of goods are being sent daily to various parts of the mines. Almost at any hour during the day wagons may be seen loading at the principal stores in the city. We are pleased to learn that a great many goods are being sent across the mountains to Eagle and Carson Valleys. Much of it goes by wagons and a great deab by pack mules. There can be no doubs shat the trade from the Eastern slope of the mountains with this city is destined to be of vast importance.— Express. —_———__ Blondin is not yet satisfied with his tight rope performances at Niagara. Having walked and ran, danced, stood on his head, turned summersets, hung by one hand and by one leg, carried a man on his back, and eooked an omelet on the rope, by day light, he now proposes to give a pyrotechnic exhibition at night, on the centre of the rope, in which he will appear performing over the black abyss, surrounded by a blaze of fireworks. Lecatine Vieitance ComMitters.—The last Legislature of Michigan passed an act empowering any number of citizens, not less than ten mor more than one hundred, to organize themselves into a body corporate “for the purpose of apprehending horsethieves and other felons,” and investing each member of such bedy, when engaged in making an arrest, with the powers of a constable. Col James Glover, of the California OverTand Mail Company, informs the Gallatin (Tenn.) Examiner of the existence of a remarkable spring, 280 miles east of El Paso, on the road leading to San Antonio. It is fully 150 feet in diameter, and has been sounded to the depth of 8,000 feet without finding bettom. Mist Statistics ror Sepremper.—During the month of September 466 deposits of bullion were made in the mint. They average $78. thousandths fine, weighed 32,596 0Z., and’ were worth $589,938.

Oh. touch with thy gentle — The-chords of thy mystic lyre, For the melody that it wakens Is fraught with celestial fire. And I almost deem that the angels Would steal from their starry zones, And listen, entranced, to the rambers That flow from its silvery tomes! Afar in the purple disfance, A line of quivering light, The broad, white bosom of Ocean, Glearas out toa starry night. And I hear, through the dreamy silence, The Iow, monotonous rear Of the fcaming and splashing billows Tha‘ mutter along the shore. Then bring me, oh, bring me music, White the hours of night goby, That the beauty of sound may mingle With the glory of earth and sky! Yet “not from the grand old masters,” The bards of immortal song. Whose strains of impassion’d beauty, Breathe ever of love ard wrong. "Twould awaken my heart's wild dreaming ; Ambition. with hand of flame, Would point to the shadowy future, And whisper of earthly fame! And to-night IT yearn for calmnesr, That comes with the spirit of Peace, And whispers to me of a region. Where the strife of the worldlinzs cease. Then play me, to low, sweet numbers, Some melody. gentle and rare, As the sonnd of a harp eolean, Just touched by the fingers of air! While the heavens move silently o’er us, And the hours of night steal by, Let the marvelous melody mingle, With the glory of earthand sky! Los Angeler. Sept. 1859. Twa. EA ER EEE IE TET ENS Prorrss ov THE Grars Cunrure.—Winegrowing noust be the chief branch of agriculture in California. In our article of yesterday, we stated that the old vines in Haraszthy’s vineyard produce 80 pounds each on an average, or 50,000 Ibs on an acre. They sell at about 8 cents a pound, and at that price yield $4,000 per acre—that is, if sold raw—but if made into good wiae, they will give still larger profits. Of course, grapes vrill fall in price as they becenmse more abundant; but the possivitity of making them. all into wine, awd the command which that article bas over the market of the world, seem to furnish abundant security that the price of grapes can never fall below two cents per pound, at which price they will still pay from $500 to $1,000 per acre. Mr. Harry Hammond, a son of ex-Goyernor Hammond, of South Carolina, has lately visited the wine districts of France, and examined the business of wine-growing, and he published the knowledge thus acquired in a pamphlet. From this essay, we learn that there are 5,200,000 acres cultivated in vines in France ; that the vineyards are distributed among 2,000,000 population; that the vineyards therefore, average two acres and a half each in size; that the average yield of wine per acre is 250 gallons, and that the average profit from good vine-yands is about $759 yearly. The best vineacre. Notwithstanding tie very high value of the lamd, amd the small amount of the: wine produced, and the uncenstainty of the crop, the vineyard owners still expect to make $750 peracre. California has nothing to fear from competition with France in the wine business —Alta. Oe Reicion iv Napa.—Pious men are sometimes reduced to curious shifts for illustrations te their sermons.—A Methodist exhorter lately made in his supplications to the Throne of Mercy an invocation to God “to roH the ball of Salvation over the souis of the people of Napa like Rondo Balls over the smooth surface of a billiard table!’ He must have been peeping, we think, in ungodly holes at the time on the “outside,” or trying his luck on the “ inside.” He reminds us of a pious old Deacon, who used to inspire us with so much awe by the sanctity of his manner that we dared not say our soul was our own while in church. Deacon F. came to California and was tempted after sinful gains. <A friend and member of the same Church, found him one night “ bucking at Monte.” With holy borver he nudged the absorbed player into a knowledge of his presence.— Deacon, do I find you gambling?” With ready wit to relieve him from bis embarrassment he chuckled—“ No, no, friend S.—not gambling! You see, this is & corrupt institution, and kam doing my best to break it up!” His friend thought so. —Reporter. -_——> 8 Unxcustomep Goops.—Among the Rabbinical Tales is the following story of Abraham. Abraham, in travelling to Egypt, brought with hima chest. At the custom house the officers exacted the duties. Abraham wowld kare readily paid, but desired they would not open the chest. They first insisted on duty forchothes, which Abraham consented to pay ; but then they thought by his ready acquiesence that it might be gold. They now suspected it might be silk, or more costly pearls; and Abraham generously consented to pay as if the chest contained the most valuable of things. It was then resolved to open and examine the chest. And bebold as seen as that chest was opened, the great Iustrs of human beauty broke out which made such a@ neése in the land of Egypt ; it was Sarah herself! The jealous Abraham, to conceal her beauty, had locked her ip his chesiTenvantTerec Rovts.—The S. F. Times is reliably informed that the Tehuantepec mail route will be for the present discontinued. Their contract does not obfige them to perform more than one voyage, after which there will be an indefinite suspension of the service. Nevertheless, the company still exists, and as soon as the intended improvements have beer effected on the Isthmas, operations will be permanently continued. en TELEGRAPHEC.—On the 5th of September a Convention was being held im Mew York, composed of representatives from various telegraph companies im the United States, for the purpose of agreeing upon the parties te construct a line of telegraph across the plains to California. The immediate corstruction of the work bad already been determined upon. ——— The “big cheese” that was exhibited at Sacramento, was manufactured by Messrs. Laird Bros., at Punta Reyes, Marin county. It measured ten feet five inches in circumference, and weighed 750 pounds. It was made om the 20th of June last, from the. milk of ninety cows, of four days’ milking. .

We urged this npow the ground that such statutes were wholly unnecessary. Every man in this country and in England has a right to choose his own name, and to change it as often as he pleases. There is no law to prohibit it, and as for contracts made in the assumed name, they are perfectly valid, because, by the act of signing the name, he adopts it, and is, thereby, estepped from denying it. The practice might indeed be carried to such an extent as to become a pubhe evil, and one which would call for legislative imterposition. But, as . the thing now stands, tZere is nothing to} prevent any member of the community from using any signature he chooses to adopt. His neighbors may also designate bim: by } any name they please, so that the appeliation does not amount to a libel.— Standard. “Wat Are You Dona Tuere?’—We heard a good one of a certain prominent politician who lives not very far from Marysville. During the late political campaign, Mr. B. stumped his county for the ticket. At ene of the towns in Yuba county he was addressing an audience, and wishing to substantiate some argument, he turned around to get some printed documents to read to his auditors. Upon turning about te confront the multitude he was surprised to find that his hearers had all left, except one individual who was leaning up against a tree! The speaker enquired, ‘“ What in h—I are you doing there?” The poor fellow stammered out, “I'm 1-l-listening to your s-speech.” B.at this juncture presented a revolver and exclaimed, “‘ D—n you, leave !” And he did leaye very suddenly, and at the present time is unable fully to explain B’s ideas of the late: political issues.—Mountain Messenger. aes Ee SS MaRYsviILLE Trape.—Our city is at present enjoying a fine mouwmtain trade.

Lecatine Vieitance ComMitters.—The last Legislature of Michigan passed an act empowering any number of citizens, not less than ten mor more than one hundred, to organize themselves into a body corporate “for the purpose of apprehending horsethieves and other felons,” and investing each member of such bedy, when engaged in making an arrest, with the powers of a constable. Col James Glover, of the California OverTand Mail Company, informs the Gallatin (Tenn.)

Oh. touch with thy gentle — The-chords of thy mystic lyre, For the melody that it wakens Is fraught with celestial fire. And I almost deem that the angels Would steal from their starry zones, And listen, entranced, to the rambers That flow from its silvery tomes! Afar in the purple disfance, A line of quivering light, The broad, white bosom of Ocean, Glearas out toa starry night. And I hear, through the dreamy silence, The Iow, monotonous rear Of the fcaming and splashing billows Tha‘ mutter along the shore. Then bring me, oh, bring me music, White the hours of night goby, That the beauty of sound may mingle With the glory of earth and sky! Yet “not from the grand old masters,” The bards of immortal song. Whose strains of impassion’d beauty, Breathe ever of love ard wrong. "Twould awaken my heart's wild dreaming ; Ambition. with hand of flame, Would point to the shadowy future, And whisper of earthly fame! And to-night IT yearn for calmnesr, That comes with the spirit of Peace, And whispers to me of a region. Where the strife of the worldlinzs cease. Then play me, to low, sweet numbers, Some melody. gentle and rare, As the sonnd of a harp eolean, Just touched by the fingers of air! While the heavens move silently o’er us, And the hours of night steal by, Let the marvelous melody mingle, With the glory of earthand sky! Los Angeler. Sept. 1859. Twa. EA ER EEE IE TET ENS Prorrss ov THE Grars Cunrure.—Winegrowing noust be the chief branch of agriculture in California. In our article of yesterday, we stated that the old vines in Haraszthy’s vineyard produce 80 pounds each on an average, or 50,000 Ibs on an acre. They sell at about 8 cents a pound, and at that price yield $4,000 per acre—that is, if sold raw—but if made into good wiae, they will give still larger profits. Of course, grapes vrill fall in price as they becenmse more abundant; but the possivitity of making them. all into wine, awd the command which that article bas over the market of the world, seem to furnish abundant security that the price of grapes can never fall below two cents per pound, at which price they will still pay from $500 to $1,000 per acre. Mr. Harry Hammond, a son of ex-Goyernor Hammond, of South Carolina, has lately visited the wine districts of France, and examined the business of wine-growing, and he published the knowledge thus acquired in a pamphlet. From this essay, we learn that there are 5,200,000 acres cultivated in vines in France ; that the vineyards are distributed among 2,000,000 population; that the vineyards therefore, average two acres and a half each in size; that the average yield of wine per acre is 250 gallons, and that the average profit from good vine-yands is about $759 yearly. The best vineacre. Notwithstanding tie very high value of the lamd, amd the small amount of the: wine produced, and the uncenstainty of the crop, the vineyard owners still expect to make $750 peracre. California has nothing to fear from competition with France in the wine business —Alta. Oe Reicion iv Napa.—Pious men are sometimes reduced to curious shifts for illustrations te their sermons.—A Methodist exhorter lately made in his supplications to the Throne of Mercy an invocation to God “to roH the ball of Salvation over the souis of the people of Napa like Rondo Balls over the smooth surface of a billiard table!’ He must have been peeping, we think, in ungodly holes at the time on the “outside,” or trying his luck on the “ inside.” He reminds us of a pious old Deacon, who used to inspire us with so much awe by the sanctity of his manner that we dared not say our soul was our own while in church. Deacon F. came to California and was tempted after sinful gains. <A friend and member of the same Church, found him one night “ bucking at Monte.” With holy borver he nudged the absorbed player into a knowledge of his presence.— Deacon, do I find you gambling?” With ready wit to relieve him from bis embarrassment he chuckled—“ No, no, friend S.—not gambling! You see, this is & corrupt institution, and kam doing my best to break it up!” His friend thought so. —Reporter. -_——> 8 Unxcustomep Goops.—Among the Rabbinical Tales is the following story of Abraham. Abraham, in travelling to Egypt, brought with hima chest. At the custom house the officers exacted the duties. Abraham wowld kare readily paid, but desired they would not open the chest. They first insisted on duty forchothes, which Abraham consented to pay ; but then they thought by his ready acquiesence that it might be gold. They now suspected it might be silk, or more costly pearls; and Abraham generously consented to pay as if the chest contained the most valuable of things. It was then resolved to open and examine the chest. And bebold as seen as that chest was opened, the great Iustrs of human beauty broke out which made such a@ neése in the land of Egypt ; it was Sarah herself! The jealous Abraham, to conceal her beauty, had locked her ip his chesiTenvantTerec Rovts.—The S. F. Times is reliably informed that the Tehuantepec mail route will be for the present discontinued.
