Reflections.

Reflections.
AS evening shades around me close,
And shield me in my calm repose,
view yon brilliant western sky,
And oft my bosom heaycs sigh.
hear the warblers' thrilling notes,
AS by my home their music floats,
Borne by the zephyrs from the vale,
To me they whisper many tale
Of home and happy schoolboy days,
When there heard their pleasant lays,
As DER hill and dale did roam,
On that once cherished Island home.
Alas how changed that home appears
/ contemplate the past in tears,
| sigh for those bright happy hours,
Though in this sunny land of flowers.
No mothers soothing voice hear,
When cares assail, to kindly cheer;
There's no angelic sisters voice
To make this aching heart rejoice.
Oftimcs when seated meath some pine,
And viewing this lone home of mine,
| think of her whose heart is cold,-
Too sad my feelings to unfold.
My fondest hopcs-all, all are past;
They once were bright, too bright to last
No earthly comfort do l sec
Is there no glcam of JOY for me?
The future oh, how dark and drear!
And will no gentle voice be near
To cheer in sickness or in health,
In poverty, or in growing wealth?
IF no kind heart in life share,
This heart of mine will not despair,
Fer cheerful shall my motto be,
Till called into eternity.

Hsy The Justices of the Peace in Texas an
pear to be endowed with powers extraordinary.
among others, that of forming treaties of extra
dition. If the emergency should arise doubt
less the one spoken of below would take upon
himself to declare war; "scoin money and

rom the Galveston Herald as copied from the
Goliad Express.
We are informed that a Justice of the Peace,
at Rio Grande City, has concluded a treaty with
the Tamaulipans, which STIMULATES that he is to
deliver up to them their fugitive poems, and
they are to return to him the poems or servants
that escape from this side of the river to the
other. Get out of the way, Presidents and

Good Advice.

l. Never marry for wealth. A woman's life
consisteth not in the things she possesseth.
2. Never marry fop, or one who struts about,
dandy-like, in his silk gloves and ruffles, with
slvered cane, aud rings on his fingers. Beware,
there is q trap.
3. Never marry a niggard, close-fstcd,
mean, sordid wretch, who saves every penny
and spends it grudgingly. Take care-lest he
stint you to death.
4. Never marry stranger, or one whose
character is not known or tested. Some females
jump right into the fire with their eyes wide
open.
5. Never marry Nope or drone, one who
drawls and drags through life, one foot after
another, and let things take their own course.
6. Never marry man who treats his mother
or sister unkindly or indifferently. Such treat
ment is a sure indication of mean and wicked
man.
Z. Never, on any account, marry gambler,
q profane person, one who in the least speaks
lightly of God or religion. Such u man can
never make q good husband.
8. Never marry sloven, Il man who is neg
ligent of his person his dress, and is filthy in
his habits The external appearance is an index
to the heart.
8. Shun the rake, as a snake, viper, a very
demon.
10. Finally, never marry man who is ad-
dicted to the use of ardentspirits. Depend upon
it, you are better Off alone than you would be
were you tied to man whose breath is polluted,
and whose vitals are being gnawed out by al
cohol. A filthy tobacco chewer is not fit
companion.
Young ladies, don't get married in hurry,
nor until you are fully satisfied that you are
well acquainted with the character of the one
who tries to win you; and, furthermore, don't
get married clandestinely, if you wish to be re-
spected by the good and true.
Young men, in the choice of wife, take the
o6edtent daughter of a good mother.

Is THE Moon INHABITED ?-REcENT Discovery
BY THE ASTRONOMER HANsEL.-It has long been
known that the moon reyolyeS on its axis in
the same time in which it revolvcs round the
earth, and that it consequently always presents
nearly the same side towards the earth, while
the opposite side is never seen from our globe.
No bodies of water nor clouds can be seen ON
the moon by the aid of the most powerful tele-
scope nor is the apparent direction of stars
close to its edge changed by refraction, as would
be the case if an atmosphere enveloped the
moon. Hence it has been inferred by Whewell,
the reputed author of a late work entitled "Of
Plurality of Worlds" that the moon has no at
mosphere water, and consequently no inhab-
tants.
This inference is shown to be ineonclusiye by
a recent discovery of the astronomer Hansel,
whose study of the moons motion, continued
for many years, has established the fact that
the centre of gravity of the moon, instead of
being like that of the earth, at the centre of
figure, is beyond that centre, and farther from
the side next to the earth than it is from the
other side, by seventy-four miles. The nearer
side of the moon, therefore, is vast, extended
protuberance or mountain, seyenty-four miles
high; and any fluid whether air or water,
would flow downwards from the nearer to the
farther side of the moon, where, for aught we
nearer side of the moon cannot be inhabited, at
least by beings to whose existence air and wa
ter are essential, as is the case with all terres-
trial animals.
The late celebrated mathematician, Gauss,
proposed as means of settling the question,
whether the moon is inhabited, that a huge
monument should be erected on the Steppes of
Siberia, as a signal to the inhabitants of the
moon, in the hope that they might be induced
to erect similar signal to apprise us of their
existence. The discovery of Hansel shows that
such an experiment could be attended with no
success, inasmuch as the inhabitants of the
moon, if there are any, being on the farther
side, could never see monument on the earth
1t may not be uninteresting to add, that it
has been discovered within a few years, by
means of long continued, hourly observations
with the barometer, that the moon exerts an
appreciable influence on the pressure of the at
mosphere; and also, by means of long continu-
ed magnetic observations, that it exerts an in
fuence on the declination of the magnetic
necdle.-Boston Courier, Jnly II.

REMOVAL OF Col. JACK HAYEs.-It appears by
the last steamer news that Col. Jack Hayes has
been removed from the Office of U. S. Surveyor
General for California, and j. w Mandevile
OF Iuolumne county, democratic candidate
for State Comptroller, appointed in his stead.
Hayes is appointed to a position in Utah. Ex-
traordinary efforts are said to have been made
by his friends in Washington, to retain him in
his old position; but the fact of his having al
lowed the expenses of his Office to exceed the
appropriations made for thatpurpose, doubtless
influenced the Administration in making the
change. His appointment to another position
would leave the inference that he merely ex
ceedcd his powers as Surveyor General, but
that the Government has not doubted his honor

Naturalized Citizens.

We clip the following article from the So
nora Herald, an Independent paper. 1t carries
the impress of truth upon its face and recon-
mcnds itself to the voting public:.
Always about election time politicians dis
cover that naturaized citizens are an impor-
tant portion of the body polite. They have
votes, and those votes, if cast in favor Of cam
didate, may secure his election. Politicians in
search OF Office are obsequious to all, but they
especially court what they are pleased to call
" the foreign vote" They sinple naturalized
cluzens out as proper material to advance their
selfish schemes, fiatter them with hgh-sound-
ing professions of friendship and if this does
not succeed they turn around and curse them
for their exercise of that which is the inaliena-
bic right of all American citizens. viz: private
judgment. This system of electioneer;ng Is
wrong ane corrupt from the start: it must have
originated in the breasts of men who either did
not understand, or if understanding. did not
care straw for the genius of our institutions.
The Constitution and laws recognize no differ
ence between native and naturalized citizens.
and thus, once that foreigner takes the oath
of allegiance to our Government, he sinks his
old nationality in the new one he assumes, as a
wife gives up her maiden name. To fulfill
properly the duties which they thus assume
naturalized citizens should endeavor to forget
prejudices of race and country, and amalga-
mate with the natve-born, rejecting the insid-
uous attempts of demagogues to single them
out as a distinct class, creating distinctions
which have already given rise to Native Amer
icanism and Know Nothingism.
In the party contests of our country large
proportion of the naturalized citizens have cho-
sen (as they had a perfect right to do) to sup
port the Democratic party. If they choose to
leave that party, or to support any other, no
one has the right to question the propriety of
their conduct. Freedom Of thought and action
are the very essence of republicanism. They
who would circumscribe these are traitors to
free institutions Such we pronounce the DEM
agogues to be who abuse every naturalized cit
izen that chooses to act Independently of party.
Entire and unqualified independence of all party
trammels we regard as the most patriotic posi-
ton for a citizen to hold. This is especially
the case in California, which has been the VIC
tim of political adventures since the organiza-
ton of the State government. That many nat
uralized citizens will assume this position in
the approaching State election we have good
grounds for believing
The tendency of the times is to independent
action, and the day is not far distant when
majority of the voters of California will select
the best men from among all candidates, and
elevate only good men to public station"
