ZANEsv1LLE.-The GAINESVILLE Courier
in noticing the improvements of the City
makes some sensible remarks upon the
subject that will apply equally well in
other localities:
Let our people, instead Of constantly
turning their face sWestward with sigh,
stay in locality for which nature has
done as much as for almost any other spot
in Christendom and, instead of forever
loafng, and croaking. and grumbling, 90
to work, cheerfully and earnestly, deter,
mined to have better times and brighter
days for our city, and they will come as
surely as day follows night. But, they
will not come OF their own accord. Prov
idence now adays only helps those who
help themselves.

A ShreWd ManRuyre.

The New York Erpress gives the follow
ing account Of the manner iu which sew
eral vessels were saved from seizure by
General Walkers forces, at San Juan, re-
Gently; allusion to which has been made
by telegraph.
The Accessory Transit Company's
steamer Cortes, Capt. Collins, arrived at
San Juan del Sur, with passengers, and
$4,000 in gold on the lst Of April
The junior Mr.. Garrison was olso on board
with about $4,000 for General Walker.
She had been boarded up the coast by Mr..
Cross, sent out by Mr.. Vanderbilt. Capt.
Collins chose an anchorage from which
ne could easily slip, and was boarded i'm
mediately by four men, who represented
that they were Walkers officers, came to
seize the ship, and were supported by one
hundred men sent by Walker for the pur-
pose.
The Captain with seeming grace, invi
ted isguests to the cabin. where they ate
and drank, and were merry. Leaving
them with an unlimited supply of cham
pagne, Captain Collins went on deck
quietly slipped the cables, and the steam
er drifted gently out of the harbor witt
the ebb tide, taking along in tow the shi
Daylight, Wilson, master; Continent
Gibbs, master: and California packet, a
loaded with COAL
The Walker men told Captain Collin
f that they were only waiting for them t
discharge to seize them. He according
ly took the Daylight and the other vessel
in tow, and all drifted out together
When the champagne drinkers found OF
7 what was going on over their heads, tn
, Cortes as on the high seas, and the mas
ter let them know that he was in com
mand.
g After getting to sea the Cortes parte
company with the Continent and the Ca

On Tuesday of last week, Vermont
held her annual Election for State Off :
GERS, Congressman, &c. Fletcher, rle
Republican candidate for Governor, is
elected by about 10000 majority. The
three Republican Congressmcn have
from 5000 to 1000 majority. They
have carried the entire State Senate,
aud the House is about nineteen twen-
ticths Republican.
Maine held her election on Monday,
for Governor, Legislature, and six
members of Congress. There were
three candidates for Govcrnor-lIanni-
bal IIamlin, Republican Samuel Wells
Democrat and present Governor and
George f. Patten, Fillmore Wing. On
Congressman and for Senators and Rep
resentatives, the Democrats and Wings
united on the same candidates and
worked together as one party throughout
the canvass. But they are very badly
beaten, the Republicans having swept
cverything-and the election Of Mr.,
Hamlin for Governor, by over $4,000
majority, all Of the Republican caudi-
dates tor Congress, and Of a large Re,
publican majority in both Houses of the
Legislature, is conceded. There was
great rejoicing among the Republicans
of Portland, on Monday evening. The
newspaper Offices were illuminated

! speeches were made.

1Sy An old man in Marscillcs, g,
Francce, amassed large fortune by
laborious industry and severe abstinence
and privations. He was regarded as a
miser; and as it was thought that he
boarded his money for mean and ava
ricious motives, the people would follow
him with hootings and execratons -
After his death, it was found that he
had directed the whole of his property
to be laid out in building an acqueduct
for the purpose of supplying the poor of
the city with water, which could only
be purchased at a great price, and that
he had checrlully laborcd the whole of
his life to procure for them this great
blessing.

FRIENDLY CoNFIDENcE,-He who is
a true friend, or true man, will not
need to be placed on his guard against
betraying confidence reposed in him =
One of the dearest ties of friendship is
the very confidence in an esteemed COM
panion's honor and faithfulncss. lie
who receives an account Of some per-
sonal matter from a near friend, has no
more right to relate that account to a
third party than he has to pick his
pocket. That which warm
friend imparts to us in the way OF ad
vice, should be held as sacred as the
very prayers of the closet lie who has
a soul Of honor will not need to be eau
toned against telling this or that The
secret which his brother imparts to him
he will hold as treasure placed in his
hands on trust. Nothing will gain it
from him. Every man Of sound mind
can distinguish between mere converse
tional matter which may be made tie
theme of general use, and those items o.
personal import which are only t)ld in
confidence, and which bear upon some
heart for veal or woe.
If you would prove yourself frienc
worthy of all honor aud conf lence, le
your acquaiutanccs know that their Sc
crets are safe in your keeping, and tha
which is told to you confdcntially, shall
be held by you as you would hold il
trust the orphans gold.
