HARD SHE'LL DUETT.
PHUNNYGRAPHICALLY REPORTED BL L. F. v

PHUNNYGRAPHlCALLf REPORTED Bl l.. +. w.
MoURNFpL MosEs-
Hark from beneath, mouEnfui sound
Salutes the joyous day,
Ye happy men above the ground,
List to the miners lay:
Oh; dismal is the miners life
No kindred heart around
No childrens smiles no loving wife
No social pleasures found.
HAPPY HARRY
Happy and free, as the summer bee
Are the miners at their labors
For they know that their store of golden ore
Was not swindled from their neighbors:
Then work away, ye miners gay,
in fair or wintry weather.;
In little while when we make q pile,
We will all go home together.
MoURNFuL Moses
Far down in caverns drear and dark,
With noxious vapors fraught,
We waste away the vital spark,
And strive and toll for naught.
Oh dismal is the miners life
No kindred heart around
No children's smile no loving wife
No social pleasures found.
HAPPY Harry
Rosy the dawn at the early morn,
Calls the miner from bis pillow;
And his joyous shout ringeth gaily out
From the hills to the western bll0w.
Then work away, ye miners gay,
In fair or winlry weather;
In little while when we make our pile
We will all so home together.
MouRNFpL NOSES
With aching limbs, at morning light
We meet our daily lot.
And toll till chilling shades of night
Creep DER our lonely cot.
Then dismal is the mineF's night
Fast fails the freezing dew,
Dark visions float before the sight
Aud dreams of sombre hue.
HAPPY HARRY
At the set OF sun when his toll is done,
And his spirit with care o'erladen
How gentle and sweet is the miners sleep,
AS he dreams of some rolf maiden.
Then work away, ye miners gay,
In fair or wntry weather;
In little while when we make pile
We will all go home together.
MoURNFUL Moses
And thus of every joy bcreft,
We mourn our comforts fed
While scarce enough of hope is left,
To point our thoughts ahead.
oh dismal is the miners plight,
No feasts no Christmas stew
No merry drives on Newly ears ght
No girls no-boo-oo-oo!

FEARFUL RETRIBUrIoY.-The most sckening
rehearsal of Indian retrihution we ever read is
related to have occurred to a young man who
composed one of a company of Pixies Peak ad
venturers who left Grayyille, H., last spring.
On their way out young man named Haynes,
according to his previously declared intention,
shot defenceless squaw dead, by the road The
tribe was close by, and as soon as they discovered
the murder, pursued and overlook the party.
The company numbered only six, and to save
their own lives, were obliged TO indicate the
murderer to the savages lie was taken short
distance from the road and skinned from head 10
foot. He was brought back to his companions,
and lived long enough to tell of bis torture. Few
will say the revenge was not deserved, although
more terrible than instant death

A GOLDEN Ca,iforniS is fast becom-
ing a sustaining State. Within ten years
upwards of $500, 900, 900 of gold has been pro-
duced, but the constant drain which has been 60
ing on left but ,rfng portion of the amount
here-bere where il was needed to open up a
Stale which in natural and mineral advan-
tages, bas no rival in the confcdeIacy. But the
misfortune of being young and non producing, oc-
casioned The outlay of our gold for the necessi-
ties of susienance which could not be produce ed
at home. Such necessity no longer exists gen
ius and mechanical skill are checking the gold
en- outgoes, and now nearly everything to salts
fy the demands Of comfort or luxury is produced
at home The natural resources of California
are in every respect abundant for the mainte-
nance of ten times our present population, While
our mineral wealth is not possessed by any other
State. With all these advantages, and our ad-
vanced position in agriculture and manufacture,
the enjoyment of golden future must ensue.
In pertinent article on the past history of this
State, the San Francisco Morning cal lately
made the following prophetic remarks we
have passed through the dazzling era of our ear
ly history, and have arrived at the period when
talent, will and industry are Indispensable to rem
der us permanently prosperous. We know that
wealth will not flow into our laps unless we make
some eXertion to direct the stream towards us
AS it has all along been flowing away from us to
enrich distant countries, we see the necessity OF
intercepting its course, and with the proverbial
perception OF our race, we are now using our
means, our energy and our talents to that end"
California will soon be land of homes. Manu-
facturies are increasing, agriculture supplies
much that was formerly imported, we make our
clothing and build our own Ships, and really pro-
duce nearly every article which wilt to keep
at home the golden product of our young State.
