Irishmen body into politics, distinctly from
the general Community Of the citizens. Is con-
tanned in the Democratic Rife, edited by an
Irishman:
There is an effort being made by the leaders
of the wing party (says the Democratic Rife)
to gain over the support of the Irish democra-
cy. SO far these efforts are made on the
ground of PRINCIPLE, we do not object but we
do object TO this sycophantic demag agoguery prac-
tised by the federal leaders towards the Irish.

Irishmen know full well where their natural
rights are best maintained, and mistake the

their political support. Some few of the whig

Pleasures Of Missionary Lie.

In letter to tic New York Re
curlcr, Mr.. SHAW, u Missionary who
lately wen, oat 10 New Mexico, with
his wife, gives II sketch of lis journey
ings, Sc, Which may serve to disabuse
tho minds Of these who imagine that
tho Missionary has an easy life, and
but few claims upon our sympnthics
The following is IN cxtract:-
"On the 18th of Sept. VIC started
upon the plains; Mrs. Shaw being the
only female in the company. For a
few days VIC tho't it rather bard fare,
but soon become quite satisfied, and
enjoyed tho trip much. We travelled
from ten to twenty miles per day
You must recollect that VIC travel
with oxen and mules,-not by steam
boats and railroads. A striking COIL
trast, surely but then it has its advan'
,ugcs. 1t gives a good opportunity
for hunting; and the game is album
dant. We eau sometimes see two or
three hundred huge builaloes within
pnn.shot, and thousands within sight.
Prairic.hens, ducks, and the finest OF
all, the antelope, are abundant. These
furnish catablcs which are not at all
Objectionable to a good appetite
Wolves are very thick, aud keep up u
constant bowling about camp at night;
sometimes they arc almost too neigh
borly. Ono night one came to my car
rage and cat portion ofmy harness,
Notwithstanding we were sleeping
close by it. We met several parties
Of Indians, but they offered no hosti-
lily. Some part of tho way, water and
grass were very poor. Sixty miles
was the longest distance that Cur ami
mails were entirely destitute.
1--WE arrived at Santa Fe Nov. IA,
having been on the plains eight weeks
and two days. We had no rain dur
ing the time. A slight snow came up
on us in the mountains, and made a
few days of unpleasant travelling
But we arrived in safety, with health
much improved, and glad to find a
rosting-place for few days in the
family Of brother L. Smith, who came
a few months before US; and, strange
to say, the first night we slept in a
house for eight weeks, we took violent
colds"

u The Embargo rcmoccd !-"n L"t-
ter from Richmond IN three days "
and more erpcctcd!!!
We have, ut length, been favored
with a letter direct from Richmond,
which we hasten to lay before our
readers. We have been ccnsurcd, at
least by implication, for not giving le-
gisla,ivo proceedings, when in fact we
had mono TO give. Our exchange pa
pcrs from the Eastern cities have been
coming as regular as clock-work, and
those from the West, as far as St.
Louis, have seldom failed,-whllc the
papers from Richmond, which is said
to be the metropolis of our own State,
make their appearance but scmi-occa-
siionaz1y, and then seldom show their
faces until they are a month old, more
or less! We did receive printed
document from Squire Lemley, last
week, which was quite cheering, as it
gave reason to hope that he was still
in the land of the liying,-and it will
afford us equal pleasure, at all times,
to receive dispatches, either written,
printed or telegrupllic, from Messrs.
Wade and Mcdonald. We give this
week M. l of series of Letters from
Richmond, which, we have reason to
believe, will be followed up vigorous
ly, and will afford much information
that will prove interesting.

Late from California.

We arc indebted TO the polite at
tention of E. Tower, Esq, of this
place, for the pcrusal of letter from
California, dated Sacramento City,
jan. IS, 1862" from which VIC make
the following extracts:
"This country is one of the most
lovely in winter compared with yours;
although you can see the snow-caped
mountains in nearly every direction,
yet ! have seen nothing colder than u
frost this winter; and up the river,
where l an row running, the grass is
shooting up in every direction, and
the wild oats l know is 6 inches high,
perfectly green; in short, it would be
u lovely sight to you, if you could step
out of your house this morning, and
walk in the green grass, and feel the
pure and sunny air that we are now
enjoying. Some two weeks ago we
had much rain, which made it unplea-
sunt, of course, but the rains here arc
invariably warm, and now it is beau
tilul clear weather, which makes it
quite cheerful. ...
"Tho business community complain
very much now of hard times, and SO
they arc for this country; but l think
ifyou were to step out Of Morgantown
aud walk up street, in this place,
some - or II squares, you would
think your place quite a dull onc.---
Still the expenses of this place re-
quire large sales to make money; the
expenses Of any good business house
here arc from $500 to 81 900 a month,
and if good house does not sell two
thousand dollars worth in u day, he
thinks the times rather hard.
"Tho miners are doing well gene
rally; many arc going home, and ma
ny, very many for their families, and
scores arriving in every steamer from
the States. There are now 1000 pas
sengers on the 1sthmus who cannot
get a passage for the present.

HuntcrsoiNc Burnt.-A paragraph
has been going the rounds of the pa
pers, that the town of Huntcrsvillc,
Pocahontas county, W., was recently
destroyed by fire. The size of tho
town may be inferred by the follow
ing extract of Il letter to the editor of
the Putnam, 0. Recorder, written in
Pocahontas county:
considerable damage was expert
enced last night in the town of Hun
tersvillc, where three store houses,
one tavern, and one Westinghouse,
were destroyed by fire. The damage
is estimated at about fifty thousand
dollars-but no loss of life"
