The weekly Columbian. [volume] (Columbia, Tuolumne Co., Cal.) 1856-1???, 1856-11-22

A fair-haired, bright, beautiful girl. between
the age of four and five years, daughter of Mr..
Winchester. who resides at Powells Mills on
the Kinnickinnic (says the Hudson North Star
wandered from her home one day last week. and
happening to be missed, search was made for
her. and when found she was in the edge of the
mill pond drowned She had gathered beau
tiful boquet of wild flowers which grow so lux
uriantly here on the banks, and they were gras-
ped tightly in her right hand; her little body
was lifted out. life had fed but the flowers were
not removed from her grasp. and when she was
laid in her last resting place her hands were
crossed over her brest, with the flowers resting
there-fit emblem of the pure spirit which had
fled from the tenement around which friends were
mourning.
The weekly Columbian. [volume] (Columbia, Tuolumne Co., Cal.) 1856-1???, 1856-11-22

1t is far from true, in the progress OF knowl-
edge, that after every failure we must recon-
mence from the beginning Every failure is
step to success; every detection OF what IS
false directs us towards what is true; every trial
exhausts some tempting form of error: Not
only so; but scarcely any attempt is entirely q
failure; scarcely any theory, the result of steady
thought is altogether false; no tempting form
of error is without some letent charm derived
from truth.

BE FIRM.-The wind and waves may beat
against rock standing in troubled sea, but
it remains unmoved. Vice may entice, and the
song and the cup may invite. Beware: stand
firmly at your post. Let your principles stand
forth unobscured. There is glory in the thought
that you have resisted temptation and conquer
ed.-lour bright example will be to the world
what the lighthouse is to the mariner upon a
sea shore; it will guide others to the point of
virtue and safety

Touching Incident.

From the Fall River Monitor We take the fol-
lowing account of a touching incident:
In passing down Broomfied street, we think
it was we met a man in the winter of life his
gray hair falling over his pale features and
with staff in hand. laboring to reach his home.
The bad work he made of it led the bvstanders
to think him intoxicated He would walk a
short distance in very unsteady manner then
pause and lean on his staff. sourse Of merri-
ment to the boys and meriment to the men, who
like the Levites of Old wagged their heads and
passed by on the other side.
Pausing moment to look al The old man.
We noticed a little grl-God bless her ANY
iously watching his movements, and evidently
desiring to do something to assist him. She
might have seen fourteen winters, was eye full
of meaning. expression and soul. with books in
hand. was probably on her way to school, The
little Samaritan did not long remain inactive.
Approaching gentleman(?) she inquired with
a taltering tongue. while tear was seen on her
fair cheek. is that old gentleman sick or in
toXcated ?'
Drunk | guess" was the heartless reply
AT which. with the soul of hero this little
angel of mercy approached the old man, and
after moments conversation. the two were
seen vending their way along the street. the
little girl supporting the torrering form of him
whom the unfeeling crowd had left to his fate.
On inquiry. we learned that the old man was a
worthy person. and having gone out on a morn
ing walk. was suddenly overtaken with sort
of blindness, which was the occasion. though
unconscious of it himself, of his unsteady gait.
He is temperate man. and sickness subjected
him to the jibos and jeers of the multitude, save
that noble-hearted girl.
We tried to learn her name. but were unable
to do it. How like and oasis in this desert
selfish world, such conduct appears! Whoever
that girl may be. we say, God bless her.

POVISionS DeiOfe you quOte tneIl. Vnat nave
+" bills Of credit to do with banks or State cur
rency! A somewhat celebrated work on the
Il" Science Of Government" says:
446. Bills of credit are declared to mean
prOmssory notes, or bills issued exclusively on
the credit of the state, intended to circulate as
money, and which the faith of the state only is
pledged to pay. The effects of this kind of paper
money on the public prosperity, by destroying the
necessary confidence between man and man, as
we'll as confidence in the public faith, were
disastrous. These bills of credit, having no
funds set apart to redeem them, were seldom
paid, except at a ruinous discount. The losses
sustained by the community from this species Of
money, prior to the adoption Of the constitution,
induced this restriction upon the powers of the
states. This prohibition does not apply to tie
notes cfG state bank, drdUn on the credit Of a
particular fund appropriated for that purpose.
O. wise expounder Of constitutional law !
Need anything further be added by us to ena-
bic your readers to discover the force and APP
plication Of your remark on the currency ques-
ton!
Again says the Free Press:
Some Of the wisest States in the Union have
come to the conclusion to leave the currency where
the constitution places it."
We trust that in your next issue you will be
kind enough to favor the public with the names
of these States, and be quite particular to state
whether the people have imposed on them the
promissory notes or certificates of Deposit Of
private individuals, who manufacture and issue
them with the intention and preconceived design
of circulating them as money.
We can spend no more time at present in
reviewing the article. The remaining portion
of it is almost too ,ceok to bear handling. We
propose to publish the laws Of the differen,
States. by which they have protected themselves
from the curse of such trash, and tomorrow
We will give the law Of Wisconsin,-the near
est State to our Territory. We do this, not to
convince our intelligent Legislature Of the
power vested in them to protect themselves and
the people against shinplasters, but for the pur.
pose Of removing the well grounded ignorance
Of the Free Press, and to dissipate all fear on
the part Of the real democracy that when the
editor says eve are opposed to al isssahiSe
