me that all they ask is to be left alone.-
| am therefore opposed to the present law
and to the amendments.
Mr.. Walkup rose to point of order
he did not want to hear general debate
on this question.
The President decided that the amend
ments only were under consideration.
Mr.. Bell took his seat.
Mr. Merritt-If the law shall be re-
pealed, will not the miners have no right
to enter on any mineral lands for the pur-
pose OF mining, which are enclosed and
cultivated. He believed that the Supreme
Court had decided that, underthe common
law, no miner would have the right to en-
ter an enclosure for the purpose of mining
or committing any trespass whatever.
Mr.. Cofroth said that the Supreme Court.
he believed. had rendered such an opinion
in case which occurred at Bidwell's Bar.
The best policy is to let the mines remain
free and permit the miners to make their
own laws under the act of "'51.'
Mr.. Merritt said his position was that,
by the common law, miners have not the
right to enter an enclosure formining pur-
poses, no matter what they might offer as
compensation for damages. The law of
the State gave them license to do so,
provided they paid for the injury done the
ranchcro.
DIr. Chase said the decision did not go
the length stated, but only said that miners
could not, under the common law, destroy
necessary improvements, or the necessary
accompaniments to home. This law un-
der discussion, is intended to protect the
whole community, miners as well as others.
The question was then taken, and the
bill passed by ayes q, nays 3, as follows:

How TO TREAT 4 WIFE.-We have
somewhere met with few instructions
which may serve you. Patience and cheer
fulness are the great requisites in married
life. You may have great trials and per-
pleXites In your business with the world,
but not therefore carry to your home
clouded or contracted brow Your wife
may have many trials, which, though of
less magnitude, may have been as hard to
bear. \ kind, conciliating word, tender
look, will do wonders in chasing from her
brow all clouds Of gloom. You encounter
your difficulties in the open air, famed by
heavens cool breezes; but your wife is
often shut in from these healthful infu-
ences, and her health fails, and her spirits
lose their elasticity. But, oh. bear with
her; she has trials and sorrows to which
you are stranger but which your tender
ness can deprive all of their anguish
Notice kindly her little attentions and eff
forts to promote your comfort. Do not
take them all as matter of course, and
pass them by, at the same time being very
sure to observe any omission of what YOU
may consider due to you. Do not treat
her with Indifference, if you would not
scar and palsy her heart, which watered
by kindness, would, to the latest day of
your existence, thrcb with sincere and
constant affection. Sometimes yield your
wishes to hers. She has preference as
strong as you, and it may be just as trying
to yield her choice as to you. Do you find
it hard to yield sometimes? Think YOU
it is not difficult for her to give upalways?
Ii you never yield to her wishes, there is
danger that she will think you are selfish,
and care only for yourself, and with such
feelings she cannot love you as she might.
Again, show yourself manly, SO that your
wife can look up to you and feel that you
act nobly, and that she can conGde in
your judgment.

I OWE NO MAN A DOLLAR
BY CHARLES C. surRAs.

On, do not envy. my own dear wife,
The wealth of our next door neighbor,
But bid me still to be stout of heart,
And cheerfully follow my labor
You must know the last of those little debts,
That have been our lingering sorrow,
Is paid this night So we'll both go forth,
With happier hearts tomorrow.
Oh, the debtor is but shame faced dog,
With the creditors name on his collar
While am king and you are queen,
For we owe no man a dollar
Our neighbor you saw in his coach to-day,
With his wife and his Haunting daughter
While we sat down at our eoverless board,
To a crust and cup of water,
/ saw that the tear-drop stood in your eye
Though you tried your best to conceal it
l knew that the contrast reached your heart
And you could not help but feel it,
But knowing now that our scanty fare
Had freed my neck from the collar,
You'll join my laugh, and help me shout
That we owe no man dollar!
This neighbor, whose show has dazzled your
eyes,
In fact is wretched debtor
pity him oft from my very heart,
And | wish that his lot were better.
Why, the man is the verest slave alive,
For his dashng wife and daughter
Will live in style, though ruin should come
So he goes like lamb to the slaughter;
But he feels it the tighter every day,
That terrible debtors collar
Oh, what would he give, could he say with us,
That he owed no man dollar
You seem amazed, but I'll tell you more;
Within two hours | met him,
Sneaking away with frightened air,
AS if a fiend had beset him;
Yet he fed from very worthy man,
Whom met with the greatest pleasure
He held my last note! So held him fast,
Till he forced my neck from the collar:
Then | shook his hand as proudly said,
Now, owe no man dollar y
An, now you smile, for you feel the force
OF the truths I have been repeating;
| knew that downright honest heart,
In that gentle breast was beating
Tomorrow I'll rise, with giants strength,
To follow my daily labor;
But, ere we sleep let Us humbly pray
For our wretched next door neighbor;
And we'll pray for the time when all shall be
From the weight of the debtors collar
When the poorest will lift up his voice and cry,
Now. owe no man dollar!"

"a stone that is fit for the wall, will not be
left in the way"
Young gentleman, or young lady, the
great machinery OF human life is moving
on, and time is fast waiting us to our des-
TIMES. The lofty edifce of society is ri
sing, towering towards heaven Do YOU
wish to occupy conspicuous position in
the wall of this edifce, or have you no
ambition for lot or part in the matter?
DO you wish to improve upon the talent
committed to your charge, or do you dare
to let it moulder in the earth Do YOU
neglect to fit yourself for the wall through
tear that you may never ill your deserved
place, or that they have not room for you
there?
Scatter such thoughts to the wind =
The architect has marked out a place for
a talent like yours to occupy, and the
builders will be looking for you. Only be
fit for the wall Square, polish, and per-
feet yourself for it. Seek not to prepare
for yourself the place. Waste not precious
time in seeking position, but fit Yourself,
and the position will find you. Stretch
forth the mind in every direction and
gather in, and treasure up truth. Make
the most Of all the good you may find in
yourself, and rest assured your turn will
come. You will not be left in the way,
for the builders will be glad of you. The
wall needs you quite as much as you need
the place in the wall.

THE VIoLIN.-Slow and tender melo-
dies confded too often, nowadays, to
wind instruments, are, nevertheless, never
better rendered than by a m IS of yiolins.
Nothing can equal the touching sweetness
of score of first strings, made to sing by
twenty well-skilled bows. This is, in fact,
the true female voice of the orchestra
voice at once passionate and chaste, heart
rending yet soft, which can weep, sigh and
lament, chant, pray and muse, or burst
forth into joyous accents, as none other
can do. An imperceptible movement of
the arm, an almost unconscious sentiment
on the part of him who experiences it,
producing scarcely any apparent effect
when executed by single violin, shall,
when multiplied by a number of them in
unison, give forth enchanting gradation,
irresistible impulse, and accents which
penetrate to the very hearts core.-Ber-
lio=.

TAKE IIoLD.-What are you looking
down for? Hold up your head? The
world is just as wide to you as to others,
and you are just as good as any one-take
hold. Remember the mind is full set with
Jewels, created there and only obscured by
the thin vapors that melancholy dreams be-
get What foolish dreams. Take hold
and wait not for circumstances, those limp
ing door-keepors of renown, expecting to
gain their favor by standing still take hold
and make circumstances wait upon you
treat them as your slaves. Look out no
longer from the dull chambers of slum-
bering genius upon the world at labor, but
90 forth and take hold-see how the busy
millions work ! They are earning their
daily bread and storing away the crumbs.
If active hands can bring comfort, wealth
and position, what cannot active minds do?
If the grosser part of mans structure can
sustain the vitality of the whole, what can
not the polished members of the inner
temple perform?
Take hold and let the mind labor, hire
it out to desirable object and keep it
bent over its duty, like the smith over his
anvil, from the dawn until the lamps of
the armament are lit, and until Incidence
has long been upon the journey Of sleep.
Let misfortune come; let envy blow upon
you its poisonous breath, and taint your
sphere with calumny; letage spread thick
his wrinkles, and failure roll rocks and
hills into your path-heed them not, take
hold and hold on and though you are
forced to lodge with ruin until it makes
you grey, go forward and let the great object
of your hope be the sole object of your
life
Take hold. the glory of a purpose is its
accomplishment. Never sacrifice princi-
pie for gold, nor honesty for Office, and
never hesitate to run race when the re-
ward is great. Obtain first by your hands
that which will obtain honest brcad-then
feed the mind. And always think and
feel that you are as good as others. Why,
when it was said, "let us make man after
our own image" the great mould was bro
ken, and Adam left the only cast. No,
all have the secret impress of the Deity;
and the stamp of that sublime image makes
the man. and bids him claim the right Of
being called Man indeed.

CALAVERAS COUNTY, CAL, SATURDAY, FEBRUARY Il 1857

SOCIETY OF ODD FELLOWS AND ITS
ORIGIN.-The origin of the parent Socie-
ty of the Order of Odd Fellows is of an
cient date. 1t was established by the
Roman soldiers in camp, after the Order
of the Israelites, during the reign of Nero,
the Roman Emperor, who commenced his
reign in SO, 1902 years ago, atwhich time
they were called Fellow-Citizens. The
name of Odd-Fellows was given in the year
20, by Titus Caesar, Emperor of Rome,
from their singularity of motions, and from
their knowing each other by night as well
as by day; and from their fidelity to him
and their country, he not only gave them
the name of Odd-Fellows, but at the same
time, as a pledge of friendship, presented
them with dispensation, engraved on the
arch of Titus Caesar, the ark of the cove
nant the Sun for N. g.; the Moon and
Stars for V. G.; Camp for Secretary
the Lion for Guardian the dove for War
den; and Mortality for G. NJ. The first
Odd-Fellows made their appearance in
Great Britain, at the time an invasion was
made by one of Titus Caesars generals,
(Agricola) on North Wales, and shortly
afterwards on the Island of Mona, now
called Anglesea. The first account efnd
of the Order spreading into other countries
is in the fifth century, when it was estab-
lished in the Spanish dominions, under
the Romish dispensation; in the sixth cen
tury, by King Henry, in Portugal; and in
the twelfth century, in France; afterwards
in England by John de Neville, attended
by five armed knights from France, who
formed a loyal grand lodge of honor in
London, which Order .remained until the
latter part Of the reign of King George
the Third, when a part of them began to
form themselves into union. Now it has
numerous branches nearly all over the
world; has lodges in the United States,
Canada, Cape Of Good Hope, Port Natal,
New Zealand, Pacific Islands, Australia,
East and West Indies, France and other
places; and is enabled by its peculiar con-
stitution, to afford, as a benefit society
greater advantages than can be obtained in
any other association. 1t is comprised Of
nearly 100000 members, and possesses.
in the aggregate G2,000,000 sterling, of
capital. 23,319 members entered last
year; paid last year for funerals nearly
937 900, and for sick relief, 100000. If
to this be added the payment to widows
and orphans, it will give total Of
| e159 GOO.

lie S NO ACCOUNT.-Nh by should we
decry the poor wretch against whom the
cold world utters this malediction. "He's
no account" says lis more fortunate fell
low worm, and the poor fellow believes it
true, and feels his every human energy
paralyzed. The anathema is verified, and
the conviction settles about his heart that
he is :" no account" But it is a great
mistake, after all. Everything of Gods
creation is of some account-capable of
subscribing some purpose. : The order Of
nature dictates that there must be grades
of capacity. "Some are, and must be,
greater than the rest" but the scale of
ability does not terminate in years Every
thing has been created for some wise pur-
pose, and should be allowed to fulfill its
mission-encourage if needs be, but never
disparage A noted botanist has said that
every weed of the field possesses some
medical virtue, and that it is the province
of science to find out what that particular
virtue may be. Noble though the efforts,
how much more praiseworthy the task to
ferret out the capacities of the human
weeds that cucumber society.
Lend encouragement, pity and aid rather
than condemn, and the reward may prove
more than commensurate to the cffort.-
The negro street sweeper who criticised
Job Johnson's sweeping, taught lesson
worth learning. "Job," said he, does
very well on plain sweeping, but he lacks
the science of getting around lamp post
neatly" Well, there are great many plain
sweepers, like poor Job, in the world, but
because they may lack the ability to do
fancy work, they are overlooked and neg
lected. But there are none who are of 'sno
account Every member of society may
be useful to it, in some capacity or other.
Only let us lend encouragement to those
of limited capacity, and rather show our
mental superiority by devising avenues of
usefulness, than by discouraging the hum
bic. We have known skilful artisans.
who could not WELD the pen, and eminent
literary men, who could not whittle shin
gle. Capacities are not all alike-there is
no such thing as an universal genius. 1t
IS folly, therefore, to decry the being Of
humble pretensions, for it may be that
with all his apparent insensibility, he pos
sesses some latent talent which We could
scarcely hope ever to acquire.
