ray- A letter to the Boston Journal
saws that hundreds of mechanics are
acekipr into California, who generally
arrive there without dime, after paying
expenses of passage, sc. He says, " l
have had at least hundred men offer
to work for me for their board, and you
can hire as many as yon want for from
$50 to $50 per month, and on that sum
no man can live out here, when pro-
visions are as high as they now are. +"
A man earning seventy five cents a day
in the Eastern cities, he says Is better
off than one receiving three or four dol
lars in California.

aim. of every man, and especially of such
as desire to give instruction to their fel-
lows, He that does not know that he is
always to DO a learner-that however
much he may have learned, there is
much of which he is still ignorant, and
that doubtless many ofhis present views
are yet to be corrected, Is quite unac-
quainted with one of the first and great
est of truths. But occasionally GER
tain stubborn facts would seem to almost
compel us to think that some men are
sent into the world, (or rather permitted
to be in it, not to acquire wisdom, but
to mete out that priceless boon TO their
benighted brethren, and, in case Of their
reluctance to accept, to whip and goad
them to the lofty and sublime heights of
their own intuitive and unerring sapl-
ence. But the bigot is welcome to the
present and prospective rewards of his
peculiar mission.
Manifestly, there is not nobler, more
happy and more hopeful state OF mind
and heart than that in which we regard
ourselves as earners--learners one OF
another-learners from study, obscrva
ton, reflection and experience. This
state of mind will enable us to distin-
guish between the gold and the dross in
the same lump-between the wheat and
the chaff in the same heap-accepting
the first and leaving the last. 1t will
enable us to impartially examine the po'
sitions and merits Of all snch as diner
from ourselves, and invest US with the
happy power of calmly looking upon the
face of friend and foe, noble and igno'
ble, bad and good. To such, liberal
kuowledgc-loving, amicable and advanc
ing spirit, society becomes school, oul
brethren our fellow-students, history al
illustrated textbook, and every circum
stance a fruitful subject of inquiry, yield
ing valuable practical information. TIL
generous, teachable and fraternal sPirl
is the unmistakable index of true no
biliy and the test Of genuine maniine'
1t generously overlooks little faults anc
errors, easily everleaps those bigot-bull
barriers which would separate us frou
our kindred, makes our race verltaol
brotherhood, unites the venerable pas
with the hopeful present, enshrines
our hearts the preccpts and deeds OF a
illustrious and good men of whateve
name or generation, draws life-nourish
ing draughts nom every foun'"in
learning, renders us enamored wit
knowledge, and, by unfolding and lead
ing out our sympathies and efforts, CT
franchises us as useful and worthy den
zens of the world I'D.
