Miss Burbank and Certain Young
Men of WeaVeFVilie.--M &,

Much excitement was produced IN our unusual

municaion from Oregon Gulch, over the sigma
ture of " Dartmouth" which appeared in Satur-
days issue of the JOlyaal Grown masculines

Out of 1,IIck-

How often we hear men in the strength
and yigor Of manhood complaining of their
"hard luck" that they cannot make "A raise,
and giving up all hope of ever getting ahead
1t would be very difficult to induce this nu-
merous class Of men i'll California to believe
that the cause, in nine cases out Of ten, of
their i'll success exists within themselves
They become too easily discOuraged they
imagine success to be too easily accomplish
ed. Many, it is true, start in earnest to
achieve their object, but unfortunately their
perseverance and energy are Of short dura-
ton; they uncOnsciousIy, perhaps, to them
selves relax their Industrious habits; they
begin to spend whole days when they should
be at work, hanging around the towns: by
and by their idle spells are numbered by
weeks; scenes Of dcbauchcry are nightly
enacted; what little money they may have
had is swallowed up at the gambling table
and bar, and in other disspatons which are
if possible worse even than gambling OF
drinking; debts to as large an amount as
they can get trusted for are contracted and
when at last an awakening feeling of the
grieyous injury they have inflicted upon
themselves breaks in upon their minds the
apparently utter hopeessness of ever being
enabled to eXtricate themselves from the
deplorable moral and pecuniary ruin into
which they have voluntarily plunged, is in
deed enough to cause despair.
There is another class of men in the mines
who do not perhaps dissipatc great deal
who allow ldleaesS to grow upon them unit
they become too indolcnt to work. This
class have unfortunately too many plausiblC
excuses for idleness; they all have claims
but somehow or other all things can never
be made proptious for working them, for al
one time there will be too much water, al
another not enough. Thus they go on from
year to year, managing to get out just enough
gold to keep their cred1 g0od We fine
them after years spent in this country, abso
lutely good for nothing, drones, living upor
the more industrious miner for by thC
ready pay of these, the merchant is enabled
to take the chances in crediting this indo
lent class. Avoid idleness, then, for to thi,
cause can be attributed the fall of many il
California. Had they steadily pursued THEN
labors without allowing themselves these
idle hours spent around gambling houses
wherein all sorts of vicious habits were con
tracted, they might yet be what once they
We're; and if those who have given way tc
the qualification of evil passions, will but
cast off like men the thraldom which binds
them, they will fnd "bad luck" exists only
in their own inclination and lack of determi
nation to accomplish their desired aims.

GEEAT DECREASE OF EMIGRATION TO THE
UNITED SrArEs,-It appears by recent re-
ports made to Congress that the number of
passengers who arrived from foreign ports
in the United States during 1888, was 23O,
476' The year previous it was 4G0,474, or
twice the dumber Of last year The war in
Europe has probably much to do with the
decline OF emigration, SO serious as TO affect
the shipping interests and the markets.
The prescription against foreigners is a still
more active cause. At the rate of last
years decline, there will be no necessity of
passing any laws restrictive of emigration
The New York Post, commenting ON the
fact, says:
"It will be observed that the largest class
of emgrants who arrive in the United States
are between the ages of 20 and % wears.
and, as they are principally working men. at
period OF life most desirable for the infer
ests of country where labor is in as much
demand as in ours This also is a time of
life when the mind is still teacbablc. if i
the time when it begins to turn its attention

practical effect Of legislation. At this No
riod the desire of all that knowledoe which
has an immediate relation to the rigbts and
interests of the individual is most eorcr and
when that knowledge is accordingly most
rapidly acquired. 1t is curious effect Of
tins great system of emigration from the old
world to the new, that to the old world is
allotted the period of their weakness and to
then the new that of their strength. Europe de-
trays the charges of theirlnfancy and ado
IeScence, and America reaps the benefit Of
Their matured vigor in hewing down her for
ests, tlIImg her fields, building her cities and
pubic edlliees, digging her canals, and con
her railways. The old world !

supposed, automatically, to be ignorant Of
