RESOLUTIONS OF THE STATE
CONVENTION.

Resolved, That As Congress has donated
lands to actual settlers in Oregon, we do
insist that II is but simple act OF justice
that the same liberallity should be extended
20 every actaal settler in California, for we
do not recognize the Justice Of the rule that
would grant such boon TO the one, and refuse
il to the other.
Resolved, That in all cases where Ame-
rican citizens have in good faith, settled upon
lands, believing the same to be part of the
public domain, but which shall prove TO be
private property--in every such instance
che general government should give such
settler at least so acres Of public land, as a
compensation for improvements and loss
sustained by reason Of such settlement.
Resolved, That we respectfully insist that
Congress shall donate an amount of public
lands to California equal to that hitherto
granted to any other new State On no just
ground could they grant us less, and owing
to our peculiar situation we could reasona-
bly demand more.
Resolved, That we arc opposed to the
sale or lease Of the mineral lands Of Califor-
mia, and as wings we now, as heretofore,
hold the doctrine that they shall be left to
the industry and enterprise of American
citizens, native or adopted, subject to such
laws, rules and regulations rs may be from
time to time prescribed by those interested
therein.
Resolved, That common justice demands
at the hands of Congress, the prompt es-
tabli,hment Of branch of the United States
Mint in California, a subject recommended
by uhig President to Congress, in order
10 give to gold its full value in the hands OF
tho miner; q recommendation which So
called democratic Congress has hitherto re.
fused to carry out--preferrng to add to the
Golfers Of foreign bankers, rather than aid in
giving full value to the daily toll Of the Cal.
ifornia miners.
Resolved, That Congress should estab'
lish a weekly mail communication between
the Atlantic and Pacific, and should make
liberal appropriation to establish q line o1
steamers between San Francisco and China
japan and intermediate islands OF the Pa
oi6c, giving the citizens of California pre-
ference in extending aid to accomplish this
great national object.
Resolved, That we most heartily approve
the whir doctrine Of internal improvements
knowing rs we do full well, that the preva
lence Of this doctrine as advocated and car
risd out by the whig party, has been one o.
the leading causes Of the rapid rise, growth
and unexpected prosperity of our common
country.
Resolved, That it is paramount duty
that Congress owes to California, as we'll AZ
10 the whole Union, to speedily undertake
.ad promptly prosecute to completion

CURIOUS WILL CAsE.-The following
singular case is related by the Cinein-
nat1 Commercial:
About the year 1913, Col. Sunderlin,
a wealthy planter, residing near Mem
phis, Tennessee, died, leaving a large
estate. 1t was said by his neighbors
that he could travel on horseback from
Memphis to Nashville, distance Of
nearly three hundred miles, and lodge
on bis own land every night. His will,
drawn up year before his death, divi-
ded his whole estate into two parts, de-
vising one half to his Legitimate children,
and the other half to ten children borne
to him by mulatto slave. These CO.
lored children, previous to tho making
Of tho will, had been brought to Cinein-
matt, o.. and to Evansville, Indiana, and
emanoipated.
The probate of the will was at ono e
resisted by the white heirs, who appeal
ed to the Circuit Court.

How TO GROW Rich. Hunt, in the
last namber of his Magazine, says:

How TO GROW RIcH.-Hunt, in the
last nsmber of his Magazine, says;
When man takes more pleasure in G.
curing money than in expending it, he
has taken the first step towards wealth.
A farmer will receive few grains of a
improved species Of corn, which he will
not eat, but will plant them, and replant
the product from year to year, till his
few. grains will become hundreds of
bushels.
Money is increasable by analogous
processes, and success, is within the pow.
er OF any man who shall attain to ordi-
nary longevity. If man at the age Of
twenty years can save from his earnings
twenty-six cents every working-day, and
annually invest the aggre egate at COM
pound legal per cent interest, he will
st the age of seventy possess $4,000
Many men who resort to life insura nce,
can save several times twenty. six cent,
daily, and thus accumulate several tim OF
the above sum long before the age Of
seventy.
Nearly all largo fortunes are the re.
suit Of such accumulations hence the
men who amrss great fortunes are usu.
ally those only who live long. The last
few years Of Girard and Astor's lives in
creased their wealth moro than scores
Of early years TO DO in haste to be-
come rich by few great operat tions, is
u direct road to eventual poverty. We
cannot, however, command long life, but
we can approximate thereto by commen n
cling early the process of faccumulat ton
an elongation by extending backward,
being as eficacious as an elongatiou for
ward. Every hundred dollars expended ID
by man of the age of twenty years, is
an expenditure Of what, at eur legal rat
of interest, would by compounding it an
nuclly, become 5000, should he live to
the ago of seventy. This lesson is taught
practically by savings banks, and well
counteracts tho fatal notion of the young,
that old age is the period for accumula-
ton, and youth the period for expendi-
turo.
By like principles, a young man who
pays annually premium for life insu-
rance, loses not the premiums only, but
thS ihStCdoc " uiou tu6 UtOueV v
would produce, should no invest it at
compound interest, and live to the erdi-
nary limit of mans life. Extremely old
mon, who have no length of life in pros
pcct, are the only persons, if any, who
should insure their lives for the expense
of their insurance would be but little
moro than the annual premiums.
The true principle of the road tc
wealth is first the desire to gain, and the
second to be your own banker. Almost
every man who really desires to become
rich may do so, if governed by these
feelings and actions; and it is just as
certain that every person who takes
more pleasure in spending than he does
in seeing his pile Of treasure grow, will
die poor.

railway from the valley of the Mississippi to
the Pacific ocean.
Resolved, That we hold il as one Of the
paramount duties of Congress to make libe-
raj appropriations for the improvement Of
the harbors, bays and navignble rivers OF
California, likewise for the erection Of Gus
tom houses, light houses, docks. fog.bells,
and all other improvements tending to pro-
tect and facilitate trade and commerce.
Resolved That it is the imperative duty
of Congress to refund without DELAY, to Cal
ifornia, the large sums extorted from her
citizens before her admission into the Union,
under the disguise of custom house dues or
public revenue, but which were in fact only
military exactions levied without color Of
law, the enormity Of which has no parallel
in the history of our government, unless il
shall hereafter be found in the adoption Of
proposition into the Senate of the United
States by distinguished representative oi
the democracy Of California, to rob the bona
fidc lawful owner Of his lands under the
prc'ence of law, until the validity and justice
of his title is confirmed.
Resolved, That with the vast capabilitie:
OF California, it is indispensable that hei
Legislation should be especially directed to
the speedy development of her agricultural
resources, the building up OF manufactures
the extension and protection of her com
mcrcial interests, and tile encouragement o
domestic industry in all its branches. Such
in the opinion of this convention, has mol
been the character Of its legislation under
democratic rule.
Re solved, That-we concur with The self
styled democratic convention that assembled
at Benieia, in their resolution declaring thai
the general government, In the hands OF 0
so-callod democratic Senate and House o
Representatives, "have been guilty of the
most culpahle.neglc of the higher interests
Of California, and have utterly disregardcd
the wants and demands of the people"
Resolved, That we regard tbs series ol
measures recently adopted by Congress, de.
nominated the compromise measures, as O
settlement of those questions on a basis
alike Just and honorable, and we will strictly
maintain and support them as such.
Resolved, That 1t is the duty of the gene
raj government to assume the Indebtedness
OF this State, necessarily contracted in the
protection and defence Of her citizens in
warfare
Resolved That VIC will support the doc
trincs set forth in the foregoing resolutions
for the reason they are whig doctrines, and
it carried out, will not only promote all the
great leading interests of California, but o.
the whole Union, and as wings we pledg,
our united and individual advocacy of tho
same, before the people.
