has been introduced, she suffers an ago
ny Of apprehension on the subject which
can scarcely be conceived, much more

story, if there were no other evidences
on the subject"
The weekly Columbian., 1857-01-10
STATE FINANcRs.-The California

STATE FINANcKs.-The California
american, in an article on the present
condition of the State Treasuy, says
"One Of the prominent reasons why there
is at the present time $4,000 in cash in
the Treasury is, that about 100000 has
been borrowed from the General Fund to
pay interest, which it is possible will be
returned to it within three months, pro-
vided sufficient amount is received from
the taxes to do SO, in addition to the sum
that will be required to pay the July inte
rest. The wilful neglect of the Senate,
last session, to pass the amended Revenue
Bill as it came from the House, is one OF
the prime causes Of the enormous defici-
ency in the Interest Fund, and immediate
steps must be taken by the Legislature to
increase the revenue very materially, SO
that the interest may not fall short in the
future as it has the past three years. The
only ray of consolation that we have is.
that in the future the settlements by the
County Treasurers will be mostly in cash,
as the recent exposure of the financial
operations by which certain Treasurers
received cash and paid TO the State scrip,
will unquestionably have tendency to
block this game in the next settlement
with the State, which will be between
the 1st and goth of January. The Treas
urers Of the nine large counties settle
quarterly; all others semiannually, or in
January and July, and the presumption
is that at least -fouiths of the amount
paid to the credit of the General Fund
hereafter will be in cash, in which event
there will be some 100000 to carry on
the Government with, unless the Supreme
Court compel the State Treasurer to pay
the Prison Wall swindle Warrants, in
which event the Treasury will be empty
for the next six monrhs and the State
about the same as bankrupt"
RICE CuLTURE.-The subject of the
culture of rice on the tule lands of this
State, says the S. F. Herald, has recently
attracted good deal of attention, and it
is probable that before long it will be ex-
;ensively engaged in by capitalists. 1t is
an enterprise of vast Importance to the
State, aud If carried out will realize large
profits. We have large Chinese popu-
lation. Rice is their favorite food, aud if
the rice grown in this State be only pro-
perly cleaned it would be used by them
in preference to China rice. Mr.. VIM.
w. Battles, in communication published
in the California Farmer, gives some
idea of what profits of the culture of rice
would be if extensively engaged in. He
says;-" The grain is to large, and it
looks entirely different from a small-ker-
mel rice. 1t is estimated that there are
from 10000 to $4,000 of these people in
the State; and at the smallest calculation,
they consume one pound of rice apiece
per day. or from $4,000 600 to 100000
per anrum, at the average price, for the
year 1856, of seven cents per pound ma
king the snug little sum of S 100000 to
S1,260, ,000-wliIe the consumption of
Carolina rice will not exceed 600 900
pounds--showing that 10000 or $4,000
Cinnamon consume about three times the
quantity OF rice that is consumed by all
the balance ofthe inhabitants ofthe State
The weekly Columbian., 1857-01-10

MoRMoNIsM.-A Salt Lake correspon-
dent of one of our city papers writes as
follows:
Elder Wilford Woodruff, one of the
twelve apostles, has regular system of
changing his harem. He takes in one
or more young girls, and SO manages. af-
ter he tires of them that they are glad
to ask for a divorce, after which he beats
the bush for recruits. He took fresh
one, about fourteen years old, IN March,
1858, and will probably get rid Of her in
the course Of the ensuing summer. These
maaguvres are practised more or less by
the whole gang; the girls discarded by
one become sealed to others, and SO trav-
el the entire rounds; and when they ac-
complish the whole circuit, and are ready
to start anew, they have a profoundly
realizing sense Of female modesty, to
say nothing Of some of its adjuncts.'

Jerusalem.

II you stay in the Holy City long enough to
fall into anything like regular habits Of amuse-
ments and occupation, and to become, in short,
for the time, ga man about towns in Jerusalem
you will necessarily lose the enthusiasm
which you may have felt when you trod the
sacred soil for the first time. and it will
then seem almost strange to yourself entirely
find surrounded ir all your pursuits by the
signs and sounds of religion. Your hotel
Is monastery, your rooms are ::cells, the
landlord is q stately abbot, and the walters
are hooded monks. II you walk out Of
town, you find yourself on the Mount Of
Olives, or in the Valley Of Jehosaphst, or on
the Hill Of Evil Counsel. Ifyou mount your
horse and extend your SAMPLES, you will be
guided TO the wilderness Of St. John, or the
birthplace Of our Savior. Your club is the
great church Of our Holy Sepulchre, where
everybody meets everybody every day. If you
lounge through the town, your Pail Mall is
Via Doloross, and the object Of your affections
Is some maid or mstron all forlorn and sadly
shrouded IN pilgrims robe.
II you would hear music, it must be the
y
chanting Of friars. II you look at pictures,
you see virgins with miserable foreshortened
arms; or devils out Of drawing, or angels tumb-
ling up the skies in impious perspective. II
you would make any purchases, you must 60
again to the church doors; and when you in-
quire for the manufactures Of the place, you
find that they consist Of double blessed heads
and sancti6ed shells These last are the ia
vorite tokens which the pilgrims carry off
with item. The shell is craven, or rather
scratched, on the white side with rude draw
ing of the Blessed Virgin, or of the Crucifxion
or Of some other scriptural subject; having
passe this stage, it goes into the hands of q
priest; by him it is subjected TO same process
for rendering it eficacious against the schemes
Of our ghostly enemy; the manufacture is then
complete, and is deemed to be fit for use.-

! mny NOT love Thee.
TO u. y. H--w.

may not love thec---but within my heart,
When night and darkness set my spirit free,
And sit musing from the world apart,
There Is q low, deep voice that tells Of thee.
That voice 10 sweet aud mournful as the tone
OF fair Eoiian music heard in sleep,
Or the Wild cadence OF spirit lone
Ger the hushed waters of the midnight deep.
J may not love thee--but thy blessed look
Forever hannts my soul when thou art far
II ylances upward from each mooniit brook,
and downward from each bright and holy star.
lis imagined In each flower that lifts its eye
At morn to greet the sunshine and the dew,
And In each fairy cloud that wanders by,
Floating in beauty DER the mountain blue.
] may not love thee--but thy gentle looks
Can ssr within my soul its font OF tears,
And wake the echo Of my hearts deep chords,
Like some sweet melody Of EARLY YEARS.
Z may not love thee--but thy image seems
4 loving radiance to my spirit given,
FOR oh picture thee In all my dreams
Ofblss earth aud blessedness iu Heaven.
