DEAD MANS CASTLE. Close TO Utah Terrific
ry, and in n northwest direction from Sacrament
to, there is n curious rock which the dscovercrs
named Dead Mans Castle 1t il several miles
from any thoroughfarc, and stands on the verge
Of a deep, prccipitous caiion, which is still unin
habited, no gold having been discovered there to
tempt an invasion of the solitude Four years
ago, party of prospectors passed that way and
camped over night near the rock, in q cavity Of
which they found some crumblng bones, probably
the remains OF an animal, but which one Of the
men insisted we're human They named it Dead
Mans Castle and building their campfire close
by, lit their pipes and told dismal ghost stories
awhile, and then turned iu,' with but little ap-
prehcnsion of disturbance from the defunct lord
of the castle. The rock Is about two hundred
feet long, rises porpendicuarly to the height Of
seventy or eighty feet at II distance looks as
though it might have been the work OF antique
giants, who had set up turrets and dug out notches
like windows. A stunted cedar stands sentinel
on top but IL Is old, storm beaten and dropping,
and threatens 10 tumble down. At the bottom
there is a small grotto some twenty feet in diam
cter and extending up, probably, nearly to the
top Of the rock, whence descends small stream
Of water, which has dug out q little reservoir at
the base The voice Of the water Is sweet and
musical; it has been singing its monotonous song
there for q thousand years.

II John Smith should, while crossing Browns

A fundamental principle is involved; if Smiths
pantaloons were caught on nail in Browns
fence, Smith might sue Brown for forcible entry

SATURDAY MORNING, SEPT. rs, 1855.

NEWSPAPER MANNER1sNs.-Au intelligent young
friend, editing the Mountain Messenger points out
variety of commonplace and improper express
sions, too frequently found in newspapers. Gu
riously enough, and in direct violation of his own
precept, he begins an article thus: We have
often asked our SELF Correct in his own structures,
he will not fail to observe that the foregoing is
one of the most abominable of mannerisms. II
is impossible to say why an individual writer
should use the plural; but the impropriety of an
expression used by the most egotistical of kings,
only, is obvious to all. In elegant editorial ar
tices, or of what class soever, the pronoun is
wanting, or Of very rare occurrence. 1t is only
in the productions of the tyro or persons of de-
fective taste that 'we's,' our yourselves and
ourself' frequently occur-the last being con-
fined to baclswoods tHumindtors. The editor
should be able to write an essay, narrative, or
argument, without presenting himself, or refer
ring, at all, to his personality.

MEANEsT OF THE SEVEN CHILDREN OF SN.-It
is pity for the man whose heart is devoured by
Envy. We commserate the person who shrinks
and writhcs and falls out with the world at hear
ing the praises of his fellow spoken. His heart
is like the inconsumabe liver Of Prometheus, on
which the tormenting eagle fed; it is daily con-
sumed but in the night it regains proportion and
capacity to suffer. 1t is pity for the man of
letters, who, halting along the spurs of noun
tain which he has not courage or strength to as
cend, snarls at the nimbler footed, or undertakes
to rdcue the awry steps made in over-haste.
No one ever accelerated his own pace by grasp
ing at the disappearing skirts of superior racer,
or voefcrating disparagement as the sands lnger
under his own shoes. lie rises to emncnce who,
looking neither to the right nor the left, and
needing not the ratings of cripples by the way,
presses on TO the distant goal which magniGes in
his strained vision and nears as his pulses throb

SEPTEMBER.-This month has its name from
sCptem-seyen, it having been the seventh month
OF the Roman year before the Julian reform Of
the calendar. St. Giles Day, Holly Rood Day,
st. Mathews and Michaclmas Days occur in this
month. 1t is the first Of Indian summer, the
sweetest, saddest season of the year. Mortality
begins its work on the sparse ANNALS that exist
among the evergreens death, in his yellow robes,
is visible everywhere. The maple and dog-wood,
pcrishing among the perpetual leafed remind
one of finite being in territory of immortals.

ALI. FOR SHow-A keeneyed observer made
out that the curl on pigs tail is all for show
and the President of the Agricultural Society,
complmenting the women who contributed to the
State Fair, said
"We bear testimony to the moral worth OF Ia
dies who, instead of languishing in the empty
circles of fashion, or the gay throngs oil eXclted
folly, are lending their influence to promote the
virtue and happiness OF man. Such are not M ,ne
mere toy, but the faithful companions of the
stronger sex. Such are they who tear not down,
but build up the fortunes of their husbands.
Now, the rule is very general that the women
who make display of domestic industry on such
occasions are the least industrious at home. The
story of Lucretia is pertinent illustration =
While the Roman army lay before the beleaguer-
ed city Of Ardea, the Tarquin princes and their
kinsmen, Brutus and Collatnus, got to drinking
dustry of their wives. On a sudden they resolv
cd to ride Immediately TO Rome, and surprising the
women at whatever employment they might be
engaged in at the moment of arrival, would
therefrom decide their relative merit. They
found the wives of the kings sons entertaining
ladleS AT costly banquet, tneh Bollp W inc
house of Collatinus they found his wife, Lucre-
tia, working at her loom, surrounded by her
maids, though the hour was past midnight. The
decision was unanimous for Lucretia.
We fear that the ladies apostrophizod by the
President would not increase their reputation for
industry by having like surprsal. And when
we consider that great many of the nice things
shown at the Fair, were made by the servants,
while the mistress of the house held up her morn
ing wrapper and picked her steps through the
dairy or kitchen on tip toe, great deal of the
Presidents eloquence is to be read in the light
Illuminating the sinuosites of the pigs remote
conclusion. The moral worth of the ladies re-
ferrcd to may be indestructbe, but their domes-
tic industrial desert may admit Of doubt, consid-
erng that multtudes of women who in this State
do not know how to work, and who scream at
contact with a kitchen spider used to explore
the depths of q wash tub, scrub the kitchen floor,
and split ovcn-wood.

LIFE IN New CAfEDONIA.--Mr. Ed. Cocane late
of this county, writes to P. OKecfc, from Frazer
river, July 22d, with request that the intelligence
condensed should be printed in this paper
eve are on Frazer river, II miles above Fort
Yale, in the midst of an Indian war; we we're
higher up, but had to retreat down, after fighting
the Indians three days. We had two men woun-
ded, both from Olympia-one has since died.
Yesterday q scouting party was attacked by the
savages; two whites were killed, and three more
got into an old canoe which upset and drowned
two of them. Last night, mile above this an
old tree fell on camp, killing one man and badly
wounding six others. We killed 81 Indians, at
least; parties who passed the ground yesterday,
say that the stencil from dead bodies was intole-

tribes seem independent one not regarding trea-
ties made by another. I'm afraid the Hudson's
Bay Company and Indians together will so an
noy the miners that nothing can be done this
year From So to $50 day, from this up the
river is n fair estimate of the mineral yield at
this stage of the water, which is yet high. But
the miners are molcsted by Indians, and have to
pack provisions on their backs or take it in boats
up the river, which is dangerous business. Before
the Indian outbreak boats came up in swarms;
nothing but gold could suggest the idea that
Frazer river, above Fort YALE could be ascended
by boats. For n while, men drowning was daily
occurrence; saw boats capsze nearly every day.
The river is full of whirlpools which can't be
avoided. Boats are sometimes sucked down.

Alta Corn FIELDs--It is proper for city
newspapers to direct the unemployed to the
northern border counties Of this State. They
arc comparatively sparsely populated, and are
rich in gold which is obtained with less labor and
more certainty than in the northeastern districts
Thousands OF new comers 60 to Nevada, Sierra,
and III Dorado counties, because they have heard
of the wealth of certain claims there But they
learn by experience that the vicinity Of cclcbra-
ted diggings is the worst of all places 10 obtain
employment. The place Is ovcrrun, and there
are u dozen 1aborcrs for every days work, To
work subterancan claims they must have capital
or credit, neither of which is plentiful with new
adventurcrs, and lying about for an occasional
days work, and without the means of getting
away clear of debt they fritter away the first year
of a miners novitiatc. Ten or twelve men OWN
the whole diggings, and the laborcr without means
to 'buy in is in a state of helpless dependency.
lie had better come to the north where there il
greater area Of gold producing territory, and
where the gold is easier got at. Surface mining
requires comparatively small capital; gold is
more generally difused here, and the miner who
digs with ordinary judgement is absolutely sure
of making living and keeping out of debt
whereas, we have known scores Of Industrious,
hopeful and good men who worked months and
gings, to fail at last and were crushed under an
accumulated debt, which they never can pay
without miraculous luck.

SEDUCTIVE ADAM.--Thc Sonora Hra,d wrong
