approve Of the tone and tenor Of the
following Well>written article from
the MaFysville Herald of the 3Oth in

tbs STATE or SocTETY IN CALIFORNIA
There Is no doubt that the great, car
dinal object Of pursuit Of the thous.
ands who almost simultaneously emi>
grated to this country, had and has
tendency not to refine tho mind, not
to ennoble and expand tho intellect,
not to enlarge the affections Of the
heart; but on the contrary to cramp
and confine the action of each and all,
20 the one narrow principle Of selfish
ness. This view is taken Of the mo-
tive and result, by themselves. and
not as they have been, and may be
modified by other circumstances.
This community, unlike any other
in the worlds history, has not been
drawn together by the gradual ag>
gregatiOn Of families and persons
bound together by the ties Of kindred
and relationship. IL has not been
PeOpled as other new countries have
but . few hardy adventures advanc
