This institutions, hitherto under the care OF Rev
John Lyon, will henceforih be conducted by the pre-
sent Principal. The past history of the Academy
WILL we trust be a sufficient guaranty of Its future
efficiency. The branches taught will be the same as
heretofore. TO MASTER PRINCIPLES will be consd-
cred the most important pursuit of the pupils; and
while il will be the constant business of the lnstruc
tor 10 impart knowledge, it Will also be his aim 20
lead his pupils to make practical application of
their acquisitions. To load the mind with innumer-
able formulas, without causing it 10 use them would
be like placing bow III a chlld's hand, without
teaching him how TO bend il. In fine, It shall be our
object, as it has ever been, 10 lead the pupil to
THINK.
We look forward Confidently to the patronage of
this community, which has thus far been so gener-
onsy extended, and by undlmnshed assldulty,
we hope TO merit your support.

says, that the alledged origin Of the invention
Of cards produced one Of the shfewdest re.
plies he had ever heard given in evidence.
It WAS made by the late DIR. Gregory, a.
Edinburgh, to a counsel Of great eminence
at the Scottish bar. The doctors testimony
went to prove tho insanity Of the party,
whose mental capacity was the point at issue,
On cross interrogation he had admitted
that the person IN question played admirably
at whist. "And do you seriously say, doc.

son having superior capacity for game
so dif6cult, and which requires in pre-emi.
nent degree, memory, judgment, and com.

but have read in history that cards were
invented for the amusement Of 40 insane
king" The consequences Of this reply wss

Ma. EDiroR Thinking that come Of

doing here, will endeavor TO post you up
little.
Considering the dry weather and the
scarcity, the miners here are generally doing
very well. In fast, some are making o'g
strikes. Messrs. Leach & Co. took out $500
in four days work on Digger Guch. On
Rich Gulch, Sweets Gulch, aud French
Gulch, .l.e miners are making from $40 to
s25 day TO the hand.
Several companies have commenced DRIFT
ing in the hill on Digger Gulch, and, so far
have good prospects. Ii these hill dlggngs
prove profitable we win have as good mining
ground as any portion Of the State. A Il that
we want to develope them is a little more
water.
The town is about at a stand still the rusf
that was made here last winter having caused
a great deal more excitement than was ne
cessary in fact there were mere st'res snc
more goods here at one time than in Weaver
bat now the surplus stocks are cleared ost
and what remains is entirely adequate to thu
consumption, and the merchants are doing
we'll.
We have quite number of families here
in about every other house you 20 TO yo'
| will find ladies and children. Oh, ye happ,
miners! q mean you that are possessed o
wives and children,) what pleasure TO COM
home after a hard days work TO find the wifi
and little ones awaiting you with swee
smiles and good supper. DO you not Civ
