CALIFORNIA SPORTING PARTr.-The
" Old Fogie Club" returned from their
hunting excursion on Saturday last hav-
ing met with glorious success. They
were from town nearly a week, during
which tine they secured the Coast Range
about the head waters Of Putah and
Catche Creeks. The party are enthusi-
astic in their praises Of the sublime scene
ry met with in their travels, and discourse
eloquently upon the variety, quantity,
and quality Of the game which abound
in the solitary fastness of the mountains
The "Old Fogie Club" which mustered
on this occasion six strong. have brought
in Gcenty-tAree large, fat, black tailed deer,
as the proof of their skill as marksmen.
The Club also slaughtered great numbers
Of plump hare, quail, and other small
game, which were either consumed by
by themselves, or " left to mark the spot
where they fell.
But one unfortunate mishap marrcd the
pleasures of the jaunt, depressed the spir-
It's OF the party. Prior to the departure
from town, the cashier of the Club, who
Is universally acknowledged to be con-
noisseur in liquors, was appointed COM
mittee to purchase the NECESSARY liquids,
whereupon he laid in, as he fondly suppo-
sed keg of fourth proof coguac, to The
great depletion OF the cash on hand
On the succeeding day. in the mids. Of
the barren prairie, and under a broiling
sun, the Club stopped for while to slake
their raging thirst. a circle was formed,
the members thereof smacking their lips
in expectancy of the exhilerating draug6t.
The keg was tapped, when 10 color
less stream gushed from the spile hole
Disappointment sat on every countenance.
and universal despair seized upon all, as

I Can't Afford 1t.

AZ bnlS season OF Lne year wnen people
are called upon to subscribe to papers,
the excuse, Il can't afford it," is very
frequently made, which being interpre
ted, means, " 1 regard other things of
more Importance to myself and family
than a newspaper" Rightly considered.
there are few influences which tell more
Immediately and effectually upon the IA
mily circle than high-toned and we'll
conducted paper. Judge Thomas, of
Worcester, Mass, in recent lecture
before the Young Mems Association in
this city, said: 1.-The newspaper press
is destined to become the advertisement
Of popular culture. 1t is, intellectually,
the daily bread Of the people. The pow
err of the press, great as it is, is continu- !
ally increasing, and will draw to itself
and demand for its services more and
more of the learning and talents of the
country. The eloquence of the bar, Of
the assembly, and of the stump, create
a stronger immediate impression, but
their sphere is too limited to compare
with the widespread influence of the
eloquence of the pen. AS an instrument
for swaying the popular mind they al!
yield to it. The pen is the true lever nj
Archimedes, and in the newspaper press
has been found the place for the full |
crum."
The man Of business " can't afford
do do without his paper. He must have
the conditions of the markets, the tiuan-
c;GI prospects, and the passing events of
the dav. 1t teaches him when to buy
and sell, and he often finds Il single pa
ragraph worth its thousands of dollars
to him. The mechanic "can't afford" to
dispense with his paper. There are sug-
gestions in it which his brother mecha
MICS have made, by which he can profit;
for it contains some labor saving invcn-
ton, which enables him to make the same
articles in less time. The farmer ''cau't
afford" to carry on his farm without his
paper. There is in it that which, if pro
perly studied and praciised, increases the
income ofhis farm twenty, thirty or even
one hundred per cent. He learns from
it what are the best varieties OF grain,
what fruits ar. best suited to his soil and
climate, what crops have been made the
most profitable, whatSimPlemcnts are the
( best, and last, not least, he may learn the
value Of careful observation and accurate
knowledge. No man can afford TO be
without all the means of Information
which are within his reach. No man can
afford to live in darkness when the world
is full OF light, to plol in ignorance when
! it is the mission Of truth to instruct AMI
elevate the mind.
