THE LONG LOST CRUISER.
Standing on the mountains brow
All in boyish glee,
A gallant ship then stood aprow
Towarl the raging sea.
A mighty wind began to blow,
Then did the tall pine wave,
Time will bring all inCs low
And each mortal TO their grave
A lad some maiiens gazed upon
Ono more blithc than the rest,
Said you will be the favored ono
As leaned on her breast.
Scores Of years have gone round,
OF did the pine tree wave;
Where can this fair one be found
Say is she in the grave
II go to the mountains brow
An aged man you'll see,
itwhere's the ship' That ship, now
sh, can no longer, be.
Alas. tor you cannot be had
The gallant top OF spare
How then can the tale betold
or eagle, stripesor stlrsl
She left her native shore
AT goyemment command,
But returned no more
Unto her native land
She bore as brave crow
As need 10 tramp the deck,
Where she went we never knew;
She may have gone wreck.
She may have bnttlcd with the foe
Where muny pirates be;
Many gales passed OIL her bow
All in the deep blue sua.
She may h " balTIo pirates ship
And sunk upon the Iiuei
But be that ship where she will

he had placed himself in, and knowing no way
to avoid the charge made against him, thinks
to assail me by telling the public that my
brother got drunk, that he fell into n cavota
hole, and that he (Dr. Cummngs) attended
him; and further, that had promised to paw
him and had not done it. Now Dr.. whether
my brother was drunk or no. | do not know ::
but as for my promising to pay you for YOUR

contrary, | was not within six miles Of the

Immediately sent for, and when came to him
l was informed that DR.. Cummings had been

you could hardly stand when YOU came.-
Seeing the wounded condition my brother was
in, and the mud and dirt that had gathered in
his wounds while in the hole remaining there
yet. sent for DR.. Knox.
Now DR.. if you think to do me an injury

form you that have been too long in this
place for man of your quality to do me the
least injury. There is not man in the State

DO it. But Dr., if had the disposition to

Princess Maria Anna, of Anhalt Dessau.-

an attempt TO restore the taste for medaeval
barbarities. One count high in modern dig
mites, was appointed to have the honor OF
handing him the wine other mobiles were to

in the Nevada Journal few days since, con
cerning his refusal to attend T.. K. Stewart

our duty to inform the citizens of this vicinity
that such was his disposition. Not only
in that case, however, has he thus acted
but in others that we could mention If we
deemed it necessary. But feeling confident
that the people of this place would not ap-
prove such proceedings, and one case was

MEx1Co.-Santa Anna is still emulous
of the fame of the tyrant of the Tuillerics
as will be seen by the following order
restraining the press, which is officially
published in the Heraldo:
"The Supreme Government has OBJ
served with positive disgust, that some Of
the periodicals and journals published in
this capital, copy into their columns no.
tees or articles taken from foreign papers
of the same class, in which are inculcated
and maintained anarchical and discord-
begetting doctrines, Numerically opposed
to the ideas which the present political
administration Of our country processes
and maintains. Under these circumstan-
ces, and in order to avoid the evil that
such doctrines may occasion, General,
his Most Serene Highness the President,
has ordered that all editors Of periodicals
and journals published in this capital, be
admonished absolutely to abstain from
committing the offence pointed out, and
informed that if any one contravene this
supreme determination, he will be ehas-
tised with such severity as the circumstan-
ces of the case may demand"
1t will be remembered that few weeks
ago it was stated that employees of the
Mexican government who voted against
Santa Anna were broken of their offices
and imprisoned Recent intelligence
shows that employees who did not vote at
all have also been dismissed. That is free
suffrage with vengeance!
Santa Annals forces were making head
against the insergents in several places.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS CANDIDATE
We learn from undoubted authority that O
committee of two waited upon Judge Bean, Of
Nevada, on Monday, at Sacramento, to solicit
the use ofhis name as a compromise candidate
for U. S. Senator, and that the Judge kindly
consented. We congratulate all parties upon
this auspicious circumstance, as opening a way
to harmonic all present disagreeable differen-
ces in the legislature upon this perplexing SUBJ
ject. Judge Bean is sterling democrat of the
old TO school, and if the legislature knows
Beans, this movements will have important re-
