MORALITY We trust that We shall not be
deemed hypoeritioal by our Christian friends.
when we tell them that, wicked rs we are, we
feel like moralizing, occasionally; that we were
born in Christian land, where the Gospel is
preached every Sunday, at least, and where
the people are seen Aocking to the house Of
worship, to listen to and profit by the Word
Of God-but it is even So And in California
particularly, when so far away from our pious
parents and other kindred. who exerted that
holy influence over us in childhood, and who
have taught us by Christian example to love
and reverence our Maker, is this the case -
There is no place and no circumstances under
which we are brought to a realizing sense of
our obligation for having been born in a land
Of Christian liberty, than in the house of di-
vine worship, on tie holy Sabbath-day Those
privileges, We are happy to say, we can enjoy,
even in this new, and as it were wild country
Young America, in his rapid strides even to
the shores of the Pacific, is closely followed by
the ezpounders Of religious law and Christian
ity and now almost every town in the State
has one or more churches and settled min
listers.
We think in our little town Of Bidwell the
good cause must be rather tagging, and some
Of those who profess to be followers Of the
Meek and Lowly do not take that interest
which they ought. As we looked around last
Sunday and saw their seats vacant at Church
it strikes US, if they would lend their ntiu-
ence, by appearing at church, it would have
very great effect, and many would be con-
strained to follow their example who are by
no means vicious, but only want word of
encouragement to fill to overfowing our place
of worship. Our young Minister seems rather
talented, and certainly a very pious and
Christian-like man his discourses are very
interesting and an hour or two cannot be
better appropriated than in sitting under the
droppings Of the holy sanctuary, on Sunday
morning The Sunday school seems to be in
a very prosperous condition, and is attended
by a goodly number of children. Judge Ho-
bart will preach to them and others who are
disposed to attend, next Sabbath. at 10 - A

Mr. JAMES VNsoN.-We see by the papers,
that this sterling actor and refined gentleman
has taken under his management the Marys-
vile Theatre Although a young man, he
has BY dint Of close application and great
energy, placed himself in the foremost rank
among actors in California, in the line Of char
acters which he personates He is one Of the
first or Oldest actors in California. -
Having had the management of the famous
Jenny Lind Theatre, in San Francisco. he will
tardly fail to make the Marysyille Theatre
and himself exceedingly popular. Success at
tend him, and long may he continue to honor
his profession, and gracefully wear those
hoary locks; and may his bark glide smoothly
