WINGS AND TIE UNION.

A! the Wing meeting recently held in

offered series OF resolutions, which were
unanimously adopted, from which we select
The following:
Rcsolred, That while we should deeply
regret any legislation on the par, OF Congress,
that might seem to be oppressive 10 any por.
ton Of the Union-we must be permitted 10
declare to the world that our appreciation OF
The blessings secured to us by the Consli.u>
lion OF the United States is so great, and our
attachment 10 the Union so strong, that we
are resolved 10 live and die in the Union
and if any attempt shall be made 10 dissolve
il by the aboitionsls OF the North, or the
pro>savery ultraist,s OF the South. and civil
war ian inevitable consequence ensue. '"we
will fight in the Union, and for The Union,
and desire not to survive its dissolution"
This resolution is in the proper spirit ard
shows the wings now, as ever, the firm friends
Of the Union-alike opposed to ul,raism,
whether it comes from the North or South.
We trust the wings Of every county in The
State will follow the noble stand OF the pa,
trolic wings OF Marion and Randolph.

sired and advise their friends 10 come hither.
On the contrary, those who came ere antici-
pating to pick their fortunes up in the course
of q IN nth or two, and proceed home full
handed, aro for the most part, disappointed,
and declare it to be country that has been
feuly misreprcsented, and announce their de-
termination to go home as soon as they can
command the means. Another class, who
never contemplated the hardships and depriva-
lions incident to life in the mines, aud
whose physical strength and previous la bits,
are inadequate TO the laborious work Of mi-
ming, as well as the exposure necessarily con-
nected with the business, pronounce it one of
the poorest countries on the globe, unfit for
the habitation of man, and only valuable for
little gold, which God Almighty has sprin-
ked over it, that it might, per chance, have
one virtue. great many will leave the
country as soon as they can get money to 60
home, and next fall, winter and spring, there
will be tremendous reflux to the States, for
tunes or no fortunes. By the way, California
fortunes are at q large discount. There are
many who would not be satisfied with less
than $4,000 upon leaving home, who would
now be much pleased to get home thousand
dollars better off.
Now that the winter is nearly over, the peo-
pie are becoming wonderfully excited, and are
scattering over the whole mining district in
search Of "new diggins." have never, in
my life, spent so pleasant winter as the one

grow and we have never had ice half an inch

sues is an imitation OF the well known doub.
loon Of Bogota. in New Grenada-the die is
said TO be well executed, and the coin Itself
is composed Of 653 thOusandths OF gold, the
balance silver; its value therefore is $l1 10
while the genuine is rated at SIS 81. The
date is 1919. It cannot be detected by night
its size having been increased TO bring il up
to the true standard, about 4l6 grains. Il

dealing in patriot doubloons have therefore
to beware Of pecies looking too pale, or toe

" The constant stream of emf
grafton from the western States TO Cal
ifornia, is beginning to be sensibly felt.
More than six thousand persons have
already left Michigan, eacn of whom
took in money or outfit at least $500
transferring from that State the sum
Of 100000. From Iowa, il is said
5000 persons will depart this season.
estimating that each emigrant will take
with him means equal to $3.50, it ep-
pears that the emigration to California
this year, will cause an abstraction
from Iowa of Sl,OOO,00O. 1t is est.
mated that a, least 1880 emigrants
will leave Missouri for California du-
ring the current year, and that each
will have an outfit worth $3.50. The
State will thus be drained of over &c..
100000. Thus from three States OF
The Union, we find an aggregate outlay
of more than ACKNOWLEDGEMENT by
the emigration to California.
