Gov. BOggs' Address.

This honorable and well-known Demo-
crat has addressed circular to the voters
of Napa county, which we regret we can
not publish in full. 1t takes firm ground
against the Bigler party, exposes its cor
ruptions, and denounces it as vile SLAM
der on the name of democracy. We find
room for the following extract, showing
the views Of this sterling old-school dem
ocrat =
The action of the last Democratic
State Convention, held at Benicia, has
placed a considerable portion of the Demo-
cratic party of this State in rather deli
cate and peculiar position-they are re-
quired to re-elect a man to the highest
Office in the State, whose administration
of its affairs they most unequivocally con-
denim: the alternative is left us either to
decline voting, or to vote for political
opponent, and as our national party issues
have been disposed Of by the election of
General Pierce to the Presidency of the
United States, there is left US, for the pre-
sent, only issues OF State p0hcy, upon
which there is such a radical difference of
opinion among the Democrats, that it is
impossible for them to support the nomi-
nation which represents the views of only
one portion of the party. They are, there
fore, forced, in selfdefence, and as duty
to the State, which is paramount to party
allegiance, to unite with those with whom
we coincide on State issues, although we
disagree with them widely on national
questions. For my part, / regret exceed
ingly that we are placed in this dilemma,
but as l cannot conscientiously vote for
the present Executive, and believing that
my old personal friend, Capt. VIM. Waldo,
with whom | have been acquainted for the
last twenty years, represents the State
issues that / am in faver Of and would
make good Governor, | shall therefore
vote for him."

DI A Hook and Ladder Company has
been organized at Coloma.

k4gn Great improvements in building
are going on in our city, also in roads,
bridges, &c. Business is remarkably good
for the season of the year, and activity is
apparent in every department, Miners are
at work wherever water may be had, and
claims sell at good prices where water can
only be had in winter. We learn that
the miners ON Deer Creek are being well
paid for their extensive fluming operations.

New PAPER.-We understand that
newspaper is to be published at Grass
Valley, under the management of a joint
stock company. The paper we learn is
to be neutral in politics. Mr.. j. W..
Oliver will be its editor. Grass Valley is
able to give paper fair living, and we
wonder its enterprising citizens have not
heretofore originated an enterprise of this
character. The quartz men of that neigh
borhood particularly wish some organ to
chronicle their movements, and we hope
they will give Mr.. Oliver a quid pro quo.
We know the ineficiency of joint stock
operations in newspapers, however, unless
the stock holders are all practical printers,
and only numerous enough to set up and
edit the paper, and attend to the business
of the Office. Outside stockholders soon
quarrel or get discontented, and are never
satisfied unless the editor compromises his
dignity to suit their whims and thus they
either break down the concern, or give a
chance for printers watching such oppor-
tunities to buy it at fifty per cent below
the value Of the materials.
We have not the pleasure of Mr.. Oil
ver's acquaintance, but wish him ample
success in his enterprise, the difficulty of
which printers will appreciate, not only
in starting but in sustaining paper
The Nevada journal., 1853-08-26

The PRosPECT.-From the indications
apparent we deem the vote Of the county
as sure against Bigler and his corrupt col
leagues. The Reformers are working man
fully, and with great faith. Many demo-
Gratis reject entirely the Bigler clique as
anti-democratic, and will vote the Reform
ticket throughout. Others will not vote
at all. 1.-The democratic county ticket !"
is also in bad odor from the injudicious Sc
lection of men all from one section to the
disregard of the men and principles of all
others. Good democrats believe, as can
not be doubted, that the division Of the
state and slavery question will be one of
the great issues of the next legislature, and
will not vote for men who favor these
moves. We simply record a fact known
to all, and however distasteful it may be, it
cannot be disguised. These disaffeotions
Of conscientious men from Bigler, and of
others from the county ticket, will redeem
the county, even without the fuller vote
the Wings wiz cast this year, where they
have so much more motive to work than
ever before. We give credit to the nomi-
nees of our opponents of working hard for
election, and should under most circum-
stances regret to see so much labor thrown
away-but they are caught in bad box,
and must hope for better fortunes another
time.

; How Is IT that Bieler deemed it nece

How Is IT that Bigler deemed it neces-
sary to print the census in one paper in
San Francisco, the largest county in the
State, and IN tro in Sacramento, the fifth
county in size? Why did he publish it
in San Diego county, with about 200
white population, and not in Nevada ceun-
ty with 10000 white population? Was this
latter because in Nevada county that cru
dite and expensive document set down
hogs as worth fifty cents apiece, and bridge
property at the cost of single bridge?

BsS@ The trial in the case of Silverstein
Us. Rowland and Patterson is progressing
before Judge Saterlee's court at San Fran
cisco, being a complaint of ill-usage of a
steerage passenger on the Golden Gate.
The steerage passenger went in and ate at
the cabin table, and on detection was con-
ined. in barrel, Silverstein objected and
was put in the same fix The act Of the
steerage passenger was undoubtedly wrong,
and deserved some kind Of punishment,
but by the evidence so far given, which is
all for the prosecution, the captain seems
to have proceeded unwarrantably with
SilycrStein.

SHooTISG-Our immediate neighbor-
hood was thrown into confusion, few
days ago, BY a running discharge of revol-

of our quiet citizens had a narrow escape,
from the careless manner they discharged
their pistols. Such men ought not to be
allowed to settle their disputes in civilized

ELEcTIoNEER1NG is very lively herea-
bouts. A good joke is told Of our friend
Wadswerth, Of the Democratic legislative
ticket. During late tour through the
county he came across . man, whom from
his twang, he mentally set down as from
Connecticut. "Where be you from" said
the sovereign. Wadsworth had just been
crushing in his sizeable paws some plug for
his pipe, and as he answered was igniting
that companion of all his journeyings
" Why" said he, =" l am, puff, from Ala
puff-bama, but, puff, had an uncle who
lived in Connecticut, puff, and made, puff,
clocks there" It is now a mooted ques-
ton whether these were wooden or brass
clocks-opinion rather favoring the wood.

Coon TEMrFR Is GoLD.-lf people gen.
orally knew what an advantage to them it
was to be cheerful, there would be few, r
sour faces in tho world, and infinitely less
ill.tcmpcr. A man never gains anything
by exhibiting isannoyance in his face, much
less by bursting into a passion. As il is
neither manly nor wise TO yield, like a child, ,
pottiShly 10 every cross, So it is alike foolish
aud absurd 10 allow feelings Of anger to dc.
prive US Of sclf-conlrol. There never was
man in any controversy, who lost his tenn
per, that did moi come near losing his cause
in consequence. II ever person plays the
game Of his enemies, it is when he is in a
passion. Acquainiancrs shun men Of pro-
verbally III temp r; friends drop away from
them even wives aud children gradually
learn TO fear them more than TO love-
Thousands Of men owe th,ir want Of sue
cess in life 10 negleciing the control Of their
temper. Nor have they the excuse that il
is an infirmity which, cannot be restrained !;
for Washington, though naturally of mosi
passionate disposition, disciplined himself

Education. No. 4.

This subject has been so repeatedly and
70 ably discussed, that we approach it with
no expectation Of Icing able 10 add any
lbinz 10 what is already known respecting
il: nor, in truth, are We of opinion that
there is much room for discovery in the
heorv Of education. A succession Of men
Of profound intellect, has, from the earliest
tmrs 10 the present day devoted the study
Of ycars-nay, Of entire lives, 10 the cluci-
dalion Of this fundamental branch Of all
science and arl and with such success that
Il, as we fear must be admitted, Proeiiedl
sdueatioD Is still in most, perhaps in all
countries, riIher directed to wrong olj,cis,
Or conducted on erroneous p. p.inciples, the
evil is attributable, moi TO the inpossibiliIy
or even difficulty of arriving at sound Ih'o-
rrIical views, but 10 the neglect with which
The discoveries Of The great men above allu-
drd 10, hare hitherto been treated. Instead
Of being as they should be The property of
I'll civilized mrn, they are the hidden pos
SESSIONS of comparatively few, ard those
truths which il spread abroad over the men
isl soil would enable il 10 bring forth the
richest product Of wisdom and virtue, are
now hsspcd up and confined within so mar
row space that they have no room 10 exert
their yivifying influence, but remain dor
maui and inactive. In cndeavoring to rem
Sdy this evil by dilfusing a knowledge Of the
usefulness Of the philosophers who have
penetrated most deeply into tn, rcccsses of
hc human mind, and Of The, practical de-
dueliOns thence drrivable, We shall enter
upon task second in importance 10 none.
Education in It's highest ard widest sense
is the gradual developcment of all the pow
ers Of the human being, at the times and in
the degrees requisite to confer upon it the
nearest approach 10 perfection of which it
hat present capable. II is the science Of
rendering the individual an instrument of
happiness 10 h:ms,lf AMI his fellow beings,
both during the periol Of his education and
IN aAer life. II is the art Of converting the
fseblrsi creature under heaveaE into the
"iearltss lord Of animated nature" and 10
form Out Of the ignorance an hrlplrssncss
ofehildhoOd tho adult man, who is al once
The interpreter, the adorcr, anil almost the
representative Of the Eivinity. Considered
then as a science, education is q means, the
end Of which Is 10 form heallhful, wisc,
VituOus and religious member Of the com.
RnniIy. Considered as an art, il is an end
Asneans 10 which arc all that concerns
The development and perfection of the phys.
lcal powers, The cultivation of the intellcc-
|al faeulHes, aud tho raising the moral
functions to their proper dignity. Consi'l-
'Frd as il ought 10 be in practice, a combi-
hAliOn Of science and art, it evidently d.
"des it'elfintO the great branches of physi-
es'' moral, intellectual, and religious educa-
iOn.
How complex is the nature Of man! and
Low nceROl i is that the educator under.
sand the various Component paris of thai
nature, and the relations in which they stand
!" Each other! We will now cnl"avor tc
