ONLY KEEPING THE PEAoE-A friend tells us
of an acquaintance of his, in Tuolumne county,
who, in Alcalde times, issued permit to com
pany of Cinnamon to fight, for which they paid
him a thousand dollars. The document was
formidable roll of paper, profusely ornamented
with ribbons of all colors, which, the Cinnamon
thought was direct from the Governor They
also paid him $25 day, to drill them for war,
which he did in ths most grotesque style of Penn
sylvania militia On the day appointed for the
fight, the American tactician appeared in front
OF his yellow phalaux, mounted on mule, which
lie rode furously about, ourishing his hat, charg-

PERCEPTIvE FACULTIES, LARGE-The conduct
ors of the GOlden Era have very penetrative per
Ccptive faculties they could see quite as soon,
if not before, the first number of the 1henauni
appeared that its edtress was plagiarst. They
can now discern that large number of articles
which were published several months since in the
Sacramento .Age, belonged to the Trinity journal
of later dates.-Sierru Citi2en.
The Golde, Era and other journals can now
discern very little, mean disposition to accuse
us of wrong doing We have re-published in this
paper in the room of selections, q number of ar
ticles which we wrote for the Sacramento .age.-
Each one OF those articles was our own and we
will add, now, that seven-tenths Of the articles
copied from the .dge by other journals were writ
ten by us fact which will be attested by
the publisher, and by Messrs. Coggins Brown,
of the Euenng Pisitor, who were then connected
with the paper, and by Gen. Allen, who, living
in neighbOrng apartment, saw many of the
manuscripts Most of the articles which we have
reprinted in this paper haye been printed in from
half dozen to twenty others-they were written
by the editor of the TRINITY JOURNAL, who will
use them at his pleasure. They are his own indi-
vdual property H
We have thought proper to make use of the
articles in question in the of selections, in
order to collect in one volume whatever of our
writings we may wish to preserve. They have
been mostly of sketchy character. There are
others which we shall take home, as occasion
may require.
To show farther the inconsistency of the Gu
zen editor talking of republication, we state pos
itively that many Of his own articles printed in
the age had been printed before in Illinois papers,
one, we believe, was published in the .aha Cah
forna. In this, we maintain, he did right they
were his own. We trust he will not seek to in
volve us in foolish quarrel, and that he has
more manlness than to try to pull down friend
to exalt himself In so trying he will assuredly
fail. We are known to the press Of this State,
and have been assigned our place, which we hold
too firmly to be dislodged by ill-contriyances Of
petty Jealousy.

A l. q N X .

Alone all alone mid the happiest cheer.
My soul in its solitude whispers alone
Though hearts In the sunlight Of joy hover near,
They but deepen the shadow that darkens my
own.
The aow'ret peeps up to be kissed by the dew,
And the brook murmurs on to The listening
grove,
The dove to her mate, ever constant and true,
Calls him home at the evening with songs Of
her love,
But for me there's no voice mid all the gay
throng,
Whose music will steal on my listening ear.
No lip that will glow with affections true song
No eye to shed for me one tremulous tear
All yes, what u curse to be cherished by none,
'Tis sorrow too deep to he told by sigh.
To feel that thy hearts brightest leaves, one by
one,
Must shrink all unloved, and neglected must
die.
This cold selfish word like the poisonous tree.
Withers ev'ry sweet herb that would live
meath its shade
But fits like the butterfly over the lea,
Round the bloom now 30 bright that tomorrow
must fade.
But why will ye bend and not break gentle
heart?
Can thy hopes ana thy feelings find no welcome
tomb;
Has death in its quiver no generous dart,
That will place thee at rest, still defyiug thy
doom?
Was there ever JOY 30 bright or SO sweet
But memory darkened Its glorious sheen
Were there ever two souls that in unison beat
But fate in some hour stood frowning between'

" Only Mountain NIen.N

We once wrote an article which city critic pro-
nounced too unrefned for intelligent city read
ers' That said he, is mountain stuff it
would do very we'll there, but it Is not refined
enough FOR the people you now write for i The
simpieton had never been among mountain peo-
pie he thought they all wore long hair and
buckskin bfeeches and picked their teeth with
sluce- forks. He had got that impression from
had daubed ia the mines and which flash men
had had engraved and published 1t is the fun
niest of all things to see city tourists in the
mines for the first time. They don't know wheth-
er to accost miner in the Pike county dialect
or with the Bowery swagger. Some do not ven
ture out among the miners without first putting
on woollen shirt and stutfng their pantaloons
in their boot-legs,-others do an unnecessary
amount of swearing and talk rough, in order to
appear properly reckless and profane, and-peo-
pie laugh at their Stiffness. 1t is related that
when Doctor Gwin, the steamship agent and
United States Senator. by permission of Mr.
Broderick, was ON an election tour, he stuck
short pipe In his mouth, and wore old clothes
which had some appearance of being infested
with vermin. lie was elected, it is true, but it
was accomplished by STOPPING down for all enc
emy to tread on his neck.

of San Francisco editors, will tell differently of
the intelligence OF the Trinity mines, when he
goes home to his Fireman Journal

BAPTIZED BY AN OLD WoMAN's TEARs.-We e
opened book the other night, and found a flow
er which was given us nearly two years ago, by
our aged friend at Downeville, Mrs. CATuARINE
LANGToN, who, beyond the ties of near relation
ship, holds the most exalted place in the inner
temple of gratitude and love where we have put
away the names of a few As she stopped to take
up the flower, a tear fell on it, and glistened and
trembled in her hand, which had begun to be
tremulous from deep afliiction. Her daughter,
young, beautiful and full of the warm affections
of youth, had walked through the walks of her
garden little while before, but then she had
gone the white lily, the only lily that grew in
the mothers heart, had leaned its fading face on
her bosom and died. Our friend has forgotten
perhaps, remembers nothing of the withered flow
er that now lies before us. We too, had forgot
ten it, till, opening the book, we found it ensep.
utured, and on the leaf margin the words, Dap-
tised by an old woman's tears
We shall keep the simple gift which a rough
touch would destroy. We shall keep it as a
sorrowful relic, consecrated by the tears of a
