The proprietors of this Line pledge them
selves to the travelling community, that they
will put them through with more expedition.
more ease, cheaper, and in better style, than
any other line on this route. They have the

and developing its resources, but, ON the contra
ry to plumber it OF its wealth to enrich them
selves. Besides. the greater portion of them are
but little better than absolute slaves, sent here
to labor In our mines for the almost exclusive
benefit of their masters. And can we, in justice
to those OF our own countrymen who own this
species of property, suffer the people of another
country to enjoy privileges which we deny to
them? God forbid that California should longer
be guilty OF an act SO utterly repugnant to rea-
son and justice
1t is the part of wisdom always to chose the
least of two evils. Hence if we are to allow
slaves to labor in our mines, let them be the
slaves OF our own people rather than those of
another, that the fruits OF such labor may at
least remain upon our own soil.
Whilst we are ever willing to lend an atten-
tive to any argument in their favor, we can
not think that any American citizen. unless
moved by the basest impulse OF selfaggrandize-
ment, would be so regardless of his country's
welfare as to sustain a people in robbing 1t OF
its resources We are aware Of the circumstan-
ces under which these people have been brought
to our shores. But we hold there may be evils
too great for endurance, even though existing
under the sanction of law; and that this is one
of that class must appear manifest to every
mind
With these facts staring us in the face, can we
longer remain idle spectators of matter of such
eminent Importance? We trust not; on the
contrary, let US unite in keeping them from the
mines, last and desperate remedy. We
must either do this or use more effectual RENE
dy, and drive them entirely out of the country.
One or both of these remedies must be speedi-
ly applied. or, when too late, we shall have to
deplore the result of our folly.
Having given our views of this subject, we
appeal to public sentiment, acknowledging no
higher tribunal before which to present our
case. Whatever may be the decision of that tri-
bLna we shall bow with due humility and re-
signation to it, reserving only to ourselves the
consciousness of having done our duty as be-
comes the citizens OF free country and miners
of California.
In conclusion permit us to again impress upon
your minds the necessity and importance of
some efficient action upon this matter

THE SHASTA COURIER.
( Written for the Courier.
To the Old Bachelor.

BY PHEBE.
You are called an Old Bach. now think its a
pity; &c
Nature ne er doom'd thee to a desolate life;
All the ladies in town say you're handsome
and witty;
take wife.
Your heart not a desert or wilderness dreary )
Twas once green spot where love scat
tered her Seeds
But it wanted the hand of sweet little dearie,
TO culture its blossoms and keep out the
weeds.
Thou hast read Of the fig tree that scattered
its flowers
To the winds of the desert; how sad was its
There are many lone fig trees in this land OF
But hope they Il repent ere they find it too
late.
Then revive thee, old Bachelor do not
despair
ofambittion and gold be no longer the slave.
Go get thee wife, one that's kind hearted
and fair,
And fill not lonely old Bachelors grave.
I'VE have read and re-read the above lines
by the adorable ''Phebe' (this endearing ex-
preston of course presupposos that "Phebe"
neither wears pants OF whiskers,) several times,
and are forcbly struck with the conviction that
we are the subject of a portion thereof.
At least the third line of the first verse would
seem to point that way. However, modesty is
one of the most marked characteristics of the
profession, so we pursue the subject no further.

THE London Times states that recently gen.
tlenan was shooting with Lord Clifford, when
he observed hare get up, which he immedi-
ately killed. and on reaching "poor puss." it
was found that she was with young. His lord
ship Immediately drew his knife, and with much
dexterity, performed the C@sarian operation,
when three young hares were produced, at first
in almost an inanimate state but very shortly
respiration was observed, and basket with
some soft hay being procured, the little stran-
gers were conveyed to his lordship's residence,
and supplied with warm milk from COW, given
through a baby's tube. They are still alive and
thriving under special attention.

the corruption of the dead that now adds bright

the spots where the ruins Of their earthly taber-
