Ho,c do goa spend your Evenings p.
Young man how do you spend your eve
nings! Answer this question, and we
can tell you almost TO certainty. what
will be yGnr future character. In our
view, more depends upon the manner in
which young men pass this season. as it
regards their course and conduct in years
to come, than upon anything else. We
have been an observer Of men and things
for the last twenty years, and can punt 10
many youth. Who has caused weeping
and sorrow, in his family, disgraced his
name, and is now an outcast in the world
or has sunk to dishonored grave, who
commenced his career of vice, when he
broke away from wholesome restraint, and
spent his evenings in the company of the
abandoned. On the contrary, we know
many estimable young men-the pride Of
their friends-who are working their way
in favor and wealth, who spend their leis-
!, ure evenings in some useful pursuit. .
!, Young man, listen 10 us and take heed
to onr words-not that we wish TO deprive
you Of single pleasure. or debar you from
any innocent amusement. We entreal
: you TO be particular where and how You
i pass your hours. IL you lounge about
r the bar-rocm, partaking of the vulgar con
| versation that IS introduced, and Join Che
ribald song. or stand at the corner ofthe
i streets, using profane and indecent Ian
: guage, you will soon habituate yourself Il
$ low blackguardism and vile conversation
i so that no young man who respects him
self will be found in vafr enmnany. 20

INDEPENDENCE OF CALIFoRNIA.-Jf i,
be iactthai the people of Upper Califor>
MA have declared themselves indedendenl
OF Mexico, and have placed themselves IN.
der The protection ofthe United States, our
government will no: be slow to take ad
vantage oil the circumstances TO annex THAT
territory TO the Union-and, indeed il NAV
have been with view 10 this event. tina,
the President asked of Congress an appro.
pratlon OF two million of dollars. The
government OF Mexico may have been fore
warned OF this declaration Of independence
and hence have expressed Willingness to
part with the territory for conside ration !;
if so, the refusal by Congress to grant The
sum inquired, was rather NAL -aproDos. for
II would have terminated the war. and M
the same time have obtained an obiec,
which appears TO be desirable to the admin
isiratlon-vlz; the acquisition oc Calilor.
MIA. Should the people of that territory
have Claimed our protection, as has been
stated: 1t would still seem to be our duv.
before attempting lis annexation 10 our
country, to apply TO Mexico. and obtain i
ii possible, by purchase. The Presden,
has declared that the object of the war is
not conquest, nor do we believe the people
OF The United States desire 10 obtain a foot
fland from Mexico that is not to be fairly
and honorably paid for. /, is evident that.
without our aid, the people of Upper Cali
lorna cannot maintain their independence
against Mexico if therefore, we obtain.
possession OF the territory without the con-
sent OF Mexico, it must be by conqeus,-
We hope, then, that no advantage will be
taken by our government of the declara.
ton OF independence, except SO far as they
may be necessary 10 further the negotia-
tlons with Mexico for general settlement
OF all dIihcu!tles. Seize it we may, as we
are engaged in hostiIilles; and the posses
sion oil il may the sooner lead 10 a term
nation of the war. But on The conclusion
ofpeace we should either elenquish or pur
chase the territory.
we have objections to voting large sums
of money 10 be used at the discretion of the
President; and yet we regret that the ap-
proPriatlon OF two millions of dollars asked
for by the President, was declined; for he
certainly had Just cause TO believe that, by
Inc Application OF 1t, he could procure an
advantageous peace or he would not have
demanded it. The object TO be obtained
was most important, and the mode design,
ed 10 be adopted TO accomplish it, was not
likely 10 prove half so expensive Us the
continuance of the war. In consderin
The measure, no mere opposition 10 the
President should have been INDUCED, but
The interests Of the country alone should
have been consulted. We do not know
that the failure Of the appropriation will
produce suspension Of negotiations; for
