one of them, and in all on the Sabbath.
The past year has also witnessed some i'm
provenent in furnishing the inmates of those
institutions with employment In agricultu-
raj and domestic labor, the larger portion of
the paupers have been occupied. Sill much
remains o be done to secure 10 each some spe-
cies OF labor that will prevent the lazy from
seeking shelter, add to the health and COM
fort OF all, and diminish, to some extent, the
cost OF their support.
again suggest, for the consideration of the
Legislature, the propriety and necessity of en-
laIging the powers of the Board of Alien
Commissioners. 1t may be deemed advisable
that a Board devoted solely to these duties
should be created, to consist of two persons,
besides the Alien Agent. They should have
the entire regulation of the admission and
transfer of paupers to the different Aims
housts-ot removing The alien pauper insane
to the Lunatic Hosptals-of sending paupers
out OF the State to those places where they
nave a settlemeut-and authority to appreu-
tlce minors, 10 examine books of Savings
Banks when there is reason to believe persons
claiming support as foreign paupers have funds
there lnVested-to take measures to reimburse
the slate Tor what may have been expended
fol their support---to sue for the recovery of
NSSN"
for the same end to pay the cost Of trans
porting paupers to their friends when the in
terests of the Commonwealth require ito
investigate all cases of supposed settlements
against towns and cities-and to institute le-
gal proceedings for reimbursement of expenses
incurred within six years previous.
One of the main purposes in establishing
the State Almshouses, was to prevent the con-
slant conflict between the town and State au
thorities regarding the support of paupers )
but the law of last year. allowing towns pay
inent for transporting them to these institu-
tons, and for keeping those represented as
sick, reopens this very difficulty The law,
moreover, is liable to great abuse. 1t has,
during the short time of its operation, inyolv-
ed the State in an unnecessary expense of sew
eral thousand dollars, and therefore should b.
repealed.
Under the vigilant and systematic super
vision of the present officers, the State hes
been relieved during the year from tbs sup

CANON CITY, April 9th, 1856
Mr. EDIToR:-It has never been the good
fortune of our place to boast of more en-
hVenlng and entertaining amusement in the
way OF songs, dances and comicalities than
we had on Monday and Tuesday evenings
last. Miss Lizzie Burbank, with the won
der OF her age, La Petite Cerito, and Mr.
Langdon graced the boards of our theatre
before large and appreciative audience
or Miss Burbank us a danSeHSe we do not
think we are saying too much to say that
she evinced polished graceiulnesS and ele
gance Of manner in every movement which
won the appreciation of all, as boqucts and
many hard dollars were profusely showered
upon the stage more than once during each
evening OF La Petite Certo we are first
led to wonder, and then admire. SO young
and yet perform so well that she quite ri
vailed Miss Burbank in winning the applause
and favors from the house Well may her
friends and the theatre going public be proud
of her, as she possesses those elements the
development of which in future will make no
common actress Mr.. Langdon, in the way
OF cOmlcalities and comic songs, is hard to
beat, and "Cho-ri-us" did please, and we
don't know where you find place that it
wouldn't please. Altogether there was no
pains spared on the part of the trio to rem
der the performance both amusing and high
ly entertaining. They left this morning for
Trinity River, where we doubt not they will
succeed as they have done here, in establish
ing name that will long be associated with
the most entertaining and amusing moments
which in the mines we so seldom enjoy
We trust that they will not leave this part
OF the country without visiting us again

The Indian War.

EDIToR JoURNAL.-Your remarks in last
weeks issue, under the head of "NNar with
Indians" would leave the impression upon
the minds of those who were not personally
acquainted with the facts, that it was alone
who induced the boys on Trinity River to
go to the assistance of the settlers in IIoopa
Valley. This, Mr. Editor, is honoring me
far too highly, for the whole-souled, chival-
rous miners of Trinity need no encourage
ment to render assistance in the hour of
trouble, but actuated alone by their own
sense OF duty, were ready, willing and anX-
ious for the trip, as soon as the news reach
ed them, and happening thare just at the
time volunteered with them. The Company
numbered about one hundred, from Manzin-
eta Flat, Taylor's Flat, Canadian Bar, and
along the river to the mouth of South Fork
each man leaving his work, shouIdcring his
rifle, and footing it to IIoopa Valley
When we arrived there we left il to the set
tiers in the Valley whether we should war
with the Indians or not, and they deciding
in the negative, our party as ready to dance
as to fight took the ladies of the Valley who
were fortified in the Mill, had good dance
and returned well satisfied Satisfactory.

friends, and whose quiet, peaceable, and lawabi-
ding department had won for him the regard of
the community in which he lived. 1t is a sad thing
to see man just entering ON the busy scenes of
life with bright future spread out before him, cut
down in all his manlncss. But when (as in this
case, ( the hand of violence hurls a fellow crea-
ture without a moments warming into the arms
of death and still saddcr is the scene too forci-
bly, illustrating that " in the midst of life we are
in death

of the deceased in his early home, to know that
the last sad rites of the church of which he was
member, were solemnly and impressivcly perform

Mn EDroR;-I noticed in your last
weeks JoWndt a statement of the depreda-
tions committed by the Indians in the ycin-
ty Of Hoopa Valley, setting forth their
bravery and daring to be very great, and
surprising altogether the Indians in ouI part
of the county | cannot help differing with
your opinion in that statement. | will give
an instance which occurred in this vicinity
no further back than the first of this month
which think is quite sufficient to bear me
out in my opinion, The case is this: Two
old squaws, with n p0ppOose each on their
heads, took a white man prisoner and CON
fined him in an old mining cabin, and what
is more surprising the same man was one of
the conquerors of Mexico, and assisted in
taking California. They kept him in the
cabin about an hour to his great annoyance,
and to the merrment of the squaws. The
owner of the cabin hearing what had taken
place, repaired Immediately to the spot and
by his great strength and persevering bray
cry succeeded in forcing the cabin open, and
setting the prisoner free, who considers him
self under everlasting obligations to his
brave and humane deliverer. Now, if there
can be any boder acts shown to have been
committed by the Hoopa Valley Indians,
then | will give it up
