Why DON'T yoU GIVE sIDEs:-Wc ask this
question Of the True Democrat Of this State
We ask it in relation to the Fugitive Slave Law
and to the opinions expressed npon it by some
religious bodies. Whilst the True Dcmocra,
publishes all that these bodies say or have said
against the law and it, execution it never yet, to
our knowledge, has printed syllable of what
was said or done on the other side Of the qucs-
ton by other bodies of christians synodcally
expressed.
Now, this is rs unjust to these religious de-
nominations, as it is trifling with the confidence
of its readers, and fostering prejudice against
the laws in the minds of ulready-madc fanatical
traitOra.

Dr.. HoLr:-If the following could be made
Of any benefit to persons working in lime, it
should be published. So far my information
has extended it is not used All persons who
work in lime mortar, or preparations oft, are
apt to suffer more less pain from its corrosive
effects, and sometimes painful sores are produc-
cd by it. But all they need 90. when they stop
work, is, to wash their hands, OF parts corodcd
by 1t, in pure water, without soap, and wet the
exposed parts with sharp vinegar, and the work
is done, the strength Of the lime killed outright.

The Conventions.

MIR, Ep1roR-Allow me to remind your readers
that the SApnAru CONVENTION in this city will
be held on Tuesday evening of next week. II
there arc any churches that have not appointed
delegates, hope they will do SO, and that be
sides these, many other, friendly to the object
of the Convention will attend. Lest there
should be any misunderstanding as to the dc.
sign of the friends of the Sabbath, allow me to
state that Us understand it, it is no part of their
purpose to secure any additional legislation in
reference to it. They only design protection In
their rights, and this the present laws afford
The object of the movements now on foot is to
exert a moral influence, by discussing the d.
vine authority for the Sabbath, and suggesting
the proper moral means to secure it from desc
cration-in other words, to diD"sc light on the
general subject. No one can object to this.
am sorry to learn that the impression is
being made by some opponents Of both objects,
that the Sabbath and Temperance Conventions
are connected, and that there is some plan by
'designing men," to gain political power by
means of these movements, and to abrldgc the
rights of the people. This is a grand mistake.
The two Conventions nre entirely separate and
distinct; called by different parties, and will be
composed of different persons TO considerable
extent. Many who are deeply interested in the
Temperance cause take no interest in the Sab
bath Convention. True, both Conventions &C.
cur on tho same week, and this is all the ground
there is for representing them as being connec-
ted. feel an interest in, and hope to attend
both, but it is not 30 with all. AS to the Tenn
perance movement will say, in order to remove
prejudice from some minds, that it is not pro-
posed to have the Legislature enact positive
law prohibiting the retail of Liquors, but to sub
init such 4 law to the vote of the people on the
first Of April, and if a majority of the people
say it shall be law to have it SO, and not other
wise no Democrat can object to such a course.
learn that there will probably be large at
tendance at both Conventions, and we may ex-
pcct able discussions. This is what we want on
both subjects. l..

ANOTHER CALIfoRNIA, PossIBLY!-About two
years ago, the scientific world was surprised by
the announcement TINT Drs. Krapf and Rcb-
mann had discovered mountain of mountains
within one degree of the equator, in Central
Africa, and about two hundred miles distant from
the sea, which were covered with perpetual snow,
and which there was every reason to believe,
were no other than Ptolemys ''Mountans of
the Moon" Additional confirmation, just re-
ccivsd, seems to leave no doubt Of the fact that
such mountains do exist; while, from the guam
tity of gold found along the whole tropical coast
Of Africa, there is a fair ground of probability
that another treasure producing country lies still
undiscovered, to which California will be put a
mere 'crcumstance. '-(Chronotype.

still sick and but little hope entertained of their
