CRoAKERs.-Of all communities, a croaker
is more out of place in California than any
where else. He has no business here; there
is nothing ia it to provoke his dispiriting ra-
tiocinations; its very atmosphere is a rebuke
to the habitual desponder; its every day his
tory gives the fattest contradiction to hi;
baleful auguries and his repeated discourag
ing assertions Let us look at the facts. 1t
is true that we are not in the whrl of excite
ment now, that characterized lS49 and 1850
but we have greater steadiness, greater evi-
dences of permanent prosperity, more set.
tied and established public opinion. Men dc
not make vast fortunes now, rs then, in sin
gle day; neither are they ruined in single
hour, rs frequently happened at that time
Our business firms do not embark in wild
specuations with the same recklessness they
did until 1854; neither do we hear of the
wreck and crash of house after house, falling
in regular progression like a row of bricks
Business is not conducted now in the same
loose and extravagant style that character
ised the early years of our history, but has
settled down into a regular system, a well
defined and universally received plan, akin
to that which obtains in those countries with
which we have commercial intercourse

The DAY OF REsT.-The Sabbath is the
Oldest institution for man. 1t was founded
by God himself, and our physiological con
struction is evidently peculiarly adapted to
its observanee.-W are so formed that sea
sons of rest are absolutely required for the
invigoration and healthy condition of the
human frame Whether this law of nature
is inherently placed in the mind of man, or
whether it has descended in the course OF
long lost traditions to the various races now
upon the globe, it is impossible to say; but
that customs exist, and have ever existed
among them, analogous to our Sabbath, re-
curing rest or secession from labor one
day in seven is as impossible to deny. Ply
sological authorities are decided and en-
phatic in maintaining the absolute necessity
of devoting at least one seventh of the time
to rest for all men and for all domestic labor
ing animals-without any observance of this
law of nature the constitution is gradually
undermined and disease or decay super
venes.-O Columbia Courier.

WISrER.-There is nothing lovable in win
ter, with its rude blasts, pitless cold and
drenching showers. To those who are well
and comfortably housed, with bright fire to
sit by, and all the accompaniments of pleas
ant home, the raging storm without may
sound only as pleasant music winter has no
terrors for them, But, how many are there
who, even while we write, may be exposed
to all the inclemency of the uni itying ele-
ments-who have neither home nor shelter,
and are without friel ds? All how hard
and dreary is their lot, for, perhaps, to them
has come n winter of the heart as well as
the freezing colds and drenehing rains Viii h
mark the ungenial season. We never hear
the raia dropping on our roof but we think
of the unhappy unsheltered ones who may
be exposed to its sweeping showers, and even
imagine we can hear their sighs borne on
the passing breeze.-Sonora Herald
Daily national Democrat., 1858-11-09

WHAT FAME CosTs.-When DIR. Judson, the
great pioneer of Americas missions, was in
this country, | chanced to meet him in New
York, one day, coming out OF densely
crowded church. whittier he had come to at
tend a missionary convention. Laying his
hand on my shoulder he said, DO your shoul-

"Well mine do Every bone in my body

We were still standing in the vestibule of
the church, and, looking about me for the
cause of this somewhat singular remark, be-
held crowd of ladies the foremost one hold
ing in one hand pair of scissors and in the
other lock of Judson's hair, which she had
taken, it seems, without ''leave or license. =
At this moment Judson turned on me look
which shall never forget, and added with
emphasis and deep emotion, eyes, and these

out honor There is no life so melancholy in
its close, as that of lcentious wit The com
panions with whom he jested abandon him
