UNDUE AGrrATIoN.-The San joaquin Republican
beyond a question one of the ablest and most re-
liable Democratic journals in California-very
properly deprecates an unnecessary and undue agi-
taton of the Kansas question, in California. We
are only sorry that oil the Democratic papers in
the State did not from the beginning, exhibit like
prudence and discretion. Some Of them seem to
actually court disruption of the party There is
no necessity for split and no such thing will take
place if the rank and file, the bone and sinew of
the party are not harrassed beyond endurance with
the incendiary appeals, written and spoken, of self
constituted, wouldbe leaders.
Amador weekly ledger., 1858-02-06


PRINCIPLES OF JUpMsM-Were the ques-
tion asked: What are the Principles Of the
Mosaic system? we would reply: Pure, ra-
tional Deism Were we asked What is its
Dogma and what are its Mysteries? we would
reply: 1t has neither Dogma nor Mysteries
Its Moral Code is intelligible, plain common
sense; the object Of its ceremonies was either
to impress the mind of him who performed
them, and to operate upon his feelings; so
was the blowing Of horns to excite, to move;
for their sound had the same effect upon the
ancient Hebrew as the modern martial trum-
pet has upon the soldier of the present day.
"Shall the horn be sounded in the city, and
the people not trembew says the prophet.
The ceremonies were to represent to the
Hebrew mind invisible spiritual objects,
by such symbols as could be seen: as sin, by
sacrifice; devotion, i. e. the sending up Of
heartfelt prayers to God, by the tapering in
cense ascending towards the sky; or, thirdly
number of ceremonies were tolerated to in
dulge the weakness of people who, from
having seen the pompons and puerie ceremo-
nies performed by the nations around them,
had to have something similar at home to
satisfy the force of habit. Such, according
to our prophets and our best modern teach
ers, was the reason for the Introduction of
sacrifices. They were not commanded, but
merely allowed, in accommodation, of the
taste and custom of the age. Heap your
whole offerings upon your sacrifices Chat
were only partly consumed) and eat flesh;
e. e., consume them yourselves), for | spake
not unto your fathers nor commanded them,
when | brought them out from Egypt, con
cerning burnt offerings and sacrifices ii. e.,
the object was not sacrifices and offerings
but | commanded them: Obey my voice.

Attempted Flour MONOPOLY.

The Sonora Herald makes the following lust re-
marks on this subject
" The dealers in grain and -four in San Francisco
are now holding those articles at vetv high rates
having monopolized nearly all the stocks in that
market, with the expectation of realizing exorbi-
tant profits We sincerely hope that the specula.
tion will prove loss to the constituencies scoun.
drels who would so rifle with the necessities of the
people, as to speculate in the staff of lfc.n
The English language is not sufficiently express
sive to properly denounce the rascals who are en-
gagged in this villainous scheme. If a law could be
framed, and made operative, consigning to a fell
ons doom all parties conspiring together to raise
the cost of bread to famine prices, it would be a
righteous act and receive the approval Of all good
men. God caused the earth to yield abundantly at
the late harvest in this State but man would make
the poor to suffer for the want of the first and prin-
cipal necessary Of life
San Francisco spectators have ever been curse
to California Notwithstanding the working class
es in the interior, particularly the miners, have
poured their earnings into the lap of the CONNER
cial emporium until it has become great city, still
do those who have been most benefited strive to
flch the last dollar. These heartless spectators
styling themselves in many instances followers of
the meek and lowly Jesus, and as citizens 'the pu-
rest and best turn and bite the hand that feeds
them We repeat that the felon's doom should be,
if within the bounds of possibility in these degen-
crate days. visited upon them.
There is yet a considerable quantity of -four and
grain in the country out of the hands of San Fran
cisco merchants, and hence we are inclined to think
that the price of -four will be at lower figure be-
fore it reaches higher. Sc Sc mate it be.

Ell Dorado County Correspondence.
INDIAN DIcGINGs, Jan. %, 1855

INDIAN DIGGINGs, Jan. 2S, 1898.
EDs. LEDGER:-Being out of work, ont of
cash. and consequently ont of credit, will
pen scrawl to the many readers Of the
Ledger, by way, in the first place, of driving
dull care away, and in the second place of
bringing to the notice of miners Of Fort John
and Upper Rancheria an enterprise by which
those two mining camps can be supplied with
water for at least nine months in the year
On recent prospecting tour through Gala
veras and Amador counties, | visited the
camps above mentioned; and they are not
certainly surpassed in auriferous wealth by
any other equal portion of the State. | would
locate at one or other of these two places
for the next two or three years, if there was
any assurance that water could be had for
any reasonable length of time; but l am in.
formed that at present it cannot be had for
more than three months in the year-just
enough to keep the miners dragging out a
miserable existence, by causing them to loaf
in billiard saloons and whiskey mills nine
months in the year, which is an evil nccessa-
rly entaled upon the idle.
AT this place, (Indan Diggngs, the mi
ners are surfcited with water, havingas term
ed, as good thing as they want, viz; water
at two bits an inch, under six inch pressure
with the lattering prospect of downward
tendency as soon as the Miners Ditch Com
pany finish their heavy operation which is
now all completed except their extensive res
ervoir. During the short time | have been
stopping at this place, | have learned that
Mr.. Douglass, a capitalist of Placervile, FL
Dorado county, has become sole proprietor
of the old ditch, and of the ditch dug by the
Michigan Company some two years ago.
Mr.. d. has the funds and the will also to
push on an extension to Fort John and Up
per Rancheria, could he be assured that the
effort would meet with the favor Of the citi-
zens of those places The route for the pro-
posed extension, am told, is perfectly prac-
ticable, with but few obstacles in the way
that would require either blasting or huming.
Messrs. Editors, as you are friends to all
improvements, hope you will urge the im-
portanee of this enterprise to the sections
Immediately interested. Would it not be
well for the citizens Of the two towns to con-
suit with Mr.. Douglass, (who is now, and
will be at this place fer few weeks, thro'
one or more of their most active business
men, as to the best plan of pushing on this
important work, which would add SO much
to the wealth and influence Of the northern
portion of Amador?

EDs. LEDeER:-The entire community in
this part Of the county are rcjoiced that the
columns Of the Ledger are open for the dis
cqssion of all questions connected with the
operations of Andreas Pico and Ramon De
zaldo We were all surprised to hear of the
manner in which the latter is charged by
Truth" to have obtained his interest in the
grant, aud woulG like to see the matter fully
investigated VIII not some one undertake
the task Of ferreting out the charges made
against the late custodian of records? Per-
haps it would result advantageousy not only
to those who have agreed to purchase Pico's
title, but to all other set tiers on the grant
We want to know just how the whole matter
stands, and then we will know just what to
do. Yours, &c,

The Girl with the Calico Dress.

A fig for your ilashy, fine girls,
with their velvets, and satins and laces,
Their diamonds and rubies, and pearls,
And their milliner fingers and faces;
They may shine at party or ball,
Emblazoned with half they possess:
But give me, in place of themall,
NJ girl with the calico dress
She is plump as partridge. and fair
As the rose in its earliest bloom;
Her teeth with v'ry compare,
And her breath with the clover perfume;
Her step is as free and as light
As the fawn which the hunters hard press,
And her eye is as soft and as bright
My girl with the calico dress.
Your dandies and foplings may sneer
AT her simple and modest attire,
But the charms she permits to appear
Would set whole iceberg on fire;
She can dance, but she never allows
The hugging, the squeeze, the caress;
She is saving all those for her spouse
My girl with the calico dress.
She is cheerful warm-hcarted and true,
And kind to her father and. mother;
She studies how much she can do
For her sweet little sisters and brother.
fyou want companion for life,
To comfort, enliven and bless,
She is just the right sort of a wife
Ny girl with the calico dress.
