IMPROPER STRIcTUREs.-The Cali
.tornso Home Journal very soundly re-
marks:
"When matters involving the life,
the liberty, or the reputation of citizen
have beeh passed upon by the proper
tribunals, the press, in reviewing the
decisions of these tribunals, and pro-
ceeding to affirm or reverse their iudg-
ments, should exercise reasonable
degree of caution and deliberation. :.
We are not in favor of muzzliug the
press, even in regard to judicial proceed
ings. We merely protest against hasty,
fippant, ill-considered structures, con-
'ceived in thoughtless or wanton spirit,
and dictated, as they often seem to be,
by no worthier aim than that of saving
something that will make sensation,
or printing an emphatic paragraph. He
who wields the enormous and almost
irresponsible power of public press,
and suffers himself to comment lightly
and unadvisedly upon topics of this grave
-and serious character, evinces a mischie-
'vous and criminal recklessness, worthy
tof the severest condemnation"

MOUNTAINS OF THE MooN.-It may
not be generally known that when the
moon is between eight days and six hours,
and nine days old, with rejecting tele-
scope, and magnifying power of from
100 to $50, ridge or chain of noun
tains may be seen in the moon, as dis
tinctly as any chain of mountains may
be seen on well executed map. Dark
shadows are thrown on the eastern side,
and they are then (and at this period
only) seen in high relief. Thirteen
peaks may be counted. The fifth from
the lower end is the highest. There is
a small crater between the third and
fourth, Counting from the upper end of
the chain, and one on the declivity of
the fifth, Counting also from the upper
end.) This ridge or chain-the only
one in the moon which can be properly
so called, as all the other mountains are
detached, or in clusters-runs in north
west or southeast direction. The upper
part of the ridge is situated between the
two dark spots, called seas, (viz: Mare
Imbrunum and Mare Serenitatis, known
as the right and left eyes Of the moon,
and the northernmost mountain of the
chain is situated halfway down the
eastern side of the latter. Near the
lower end of this chain there is large
crater, with a central cone

THOSE STUPID HEATHEN.-The ex-
lied queen of Dude, taking offense at
queen Victoria's India proclamation, has
published reply, in which she criticises
mot only British politics, but British
religion. Comparing her own faith with
that of queen Victoria, she SAYS
'"That religion is the true one that re-
'cognizes but single God, and can ac.
knowledge none other. But when there
.are three Gods in one religion, neither
the Mohammedans, nor the Hindoos
the Jews, the Sun worshipers, nor even
the Fire worshipers, can believe it to be
true"

he following stanzas, which were written by ma
} Of Wales, doubtless express the sentiments q
ny Of our Cambrian friends, and will please then
Therefore we publish them.
[Originall
Song of the Cambro American.
When the sun in his chariot Of gold
Would set DER the hills of the West;
When the queen of the night would unfold
And spread her sweet mantle of rest;
When star after star from above
Would twinkle on forests and wales;
Then mother, with voice full of love,
Would sing of the beauties of Wales.
She sung of the mountains and hills,
Where shepherds were watching their focks
Where thousands of chrystaliRe ri'ls
With revelling danced DER the rocks;
The mountains where poets of old
Their spirits to nature did suit;
Where Druids to warrior SO bold
Awakened the harp and the Lutte.
She sung Of the ivy-green cot,
Surrounded by flowers so sweet;
Its hearth was bright hallowed spot
Where angels delighted to meet.
The cottage was simple and small,
But pleasure and comfort were there;
For its inmates knew naught of the gall
That mingles with riches and care.
She mentioned the cuckoo and thrush
Saluting the dawn of the day;
A multiform harp was the bush,
Its tenants melodious and gay.
The river-pearl sprinkled below
Went cleaning and dancing along,
Its pebbles as white as the snow,
Its ring an innocent song.
Methought while her sweet swelling note
Brought fond recollections to bear,
That should be happy to float
Ger the biIlows tho high and be there;
To see where her footsteps had been,
With playmates so gladstone and gay;
And rest on the old village green
To witness the children at play.
But year after year glided on,
As swift as a tale that is told;
And the songs in our cabin are gone,
For mother grew weary and old.
She died-and her greetings of love
With chorus so mild are no more;
But, All! she is singing above,
Where the blessed forever adore
When the sun in his chariot of gold
Would set DER the hills of the West:
When the queen of the night would unfold
And spread her sweet mantle of rest;
When star after star from above
Would twinkle on forests and vales,
Then mother with voice full of love
Would sing of the beauties of Wales.

NAVIGATION OF THE GULF OF CALL

NAVIGATION OF THE GULF OF CALL
FoRNIA "A correspondent of the Alta,
writing from the mouth of the Colorado
river, February 9th, says:
The steamship Uncle Sam is the pio-
neer steamship that has navigated the
Gulf of California from its mouth to it's
head waters; and the voyage has been
accomplished in the most successful
manner The steamer has traversed
waters never before sailed over by vessels
of over 200 tuns burthen, and the fact

A FOREST IN A LAKE.-A cores
pondent of the N. 0. Delta writing
from Virginia, speaks of the Great Salt
Pond, near White Sulphur Springs, as
follows -
1t derives its name from the fact that
some years ago the inhabitants used to
place salt in the valley where the pond
now exists, to attract deer and cattle.
There was spring which rose in this
valley, and after flowing short distance
above ground, descended into mother
earth. To tnis spring the animals came
to drink; from their trampling or some
other cause, its passage into the earth
was closed. The valley by degrees filed
with water, which, being unable to es-
cape on account of the mountains, sub
merged the forest. Itnow covers space
from 800 to 400 yards across, and reach
es depth of 80 to 80 feet. The water
is SO clear that you can see the submer-
ged forest. 1t presents most singular
appearance. Upon looking down, on a
still day, you might imagine you saw a
city of dead giants before you, so fan
tastic are the shapes assumed by the
trees

A JUST REPRoACH.-The Sierra
Citizen truly observes:
"One of the meanest of traits in the
American character Is that of taking
every chance to cheat or over charge
the Government. If the Government
makes purchase of the most unimpor-
tant article, without advertising for pro-
posals to furnish at the lowest price, it
is required to pay much more than the
market rate. IF the Government buys,
make her pay big is the trade motto
throughout the country"

the faint response, given in the sick

Music BY LIGHTNING.-It is said
that electricity is about to be applied to
music. A performer seated before a
piano, constructed for the purpose, in
London, Moscow, or St. Petersburgh,
will play morceau, every note of which
by means of the electric wire will be
repeated by another instrument in one
of the concert rooms of Paris. We al
ready have music by steam, now we are
to have music by electricity. Lungs
are, therefore, menaced with being ruled
out Of fashion by the lovers of music.

EFFECT OF COLD UPON IRoN-The
Victoria Bridge, at Montreal, is said to
have been materially injured by the
contraction of the iron used in its con-
struction, consequent On the severe cold
of January. According to natural laws,
iron in any shape, contracts or expands
one ten thousandth part of its length for
every Is deg. Fab. In July last it was
found the thermometer indicated max
imum of 12S deg. On the 10Th and
llth of January the thermometer fell
to 81 deg below zero, making an ex-
treme variation of 165 deg, which in a
tube of 260 feet, had the effect of con
tracing the iron no less than 3 Is
inches.

STRAW AND ELEcTRIcITY.-The
power Of straw as conductor of elec-
tricity has been utilized in the south of
France, no less than eighteen communes
in the neighborhood of Tarbes having
been provided with conductors composed

electrical shock sufficiently heavy to kill
an OK may be discharged by a single
straw.

MENTAL INDEPENDENCE
man and every woman is brought up
from the cradle with bias. The mind
is never sent out into the worlds life
unfettered. 1t carries with it always
the heavy chain Of habit. The politics
of the father are usually the politics of
the son; the religious character of the
household is the seed of many more
households of like faith. 1t is strong
and admirable mind indeed, which,
nursed in error, has the courage and
heroism to begin its own emancipation.
1t requires more courage to think diff
ferently from the multitude, than it does
to fight them. The first hero, therefore,
was not he who made the first conquest.
but he who uttered the first doubt.

THE PaoNEER SUrrER.-The follow

The PIONEER SUTTER. follow
ing succinct historical sketch we take
from the opinion of the U. S. Supreme
Court on the Sutter claim:
"The record shows that the claimant,
a native of Switzerland, immigrated to
the department of California, about the
year 1889, was naturalized citizen of
Mexico, and with the leave of the gov
ernment formed a settlement near the
junction of the Sacramento and Amer
lean rivers, which he designated as New
Helvetia. The country at that time
was uninhabited except by bands of
warllke Indians, who made frequent de-
predatory incursions upon the undefend-
ed settlements to the south and east of
this piece. In two or three years after
his arrival the claimant was commission
ed by the Governor of California to
guard the northern frontier, and to re-
present the government in affording
security and protection to its inhabitants
against the invasion of the Indians and
marauding bands of hunters and trap
pers who occasionally visited the valley
for plunder. In the year 1S41 he COM
menced the erection of fort at New
Helvetia, at his own expense. 1t was
surrounded by high wall, and was de-
Tended by canon. Within this fort were
dwelling houses for his servants and
workmen, and workshops for the manu-
facture of various articles of necessity.
There was grist mill, tannery and dis
tillery attached to the establishment. A
number of indians were domesticated
by him, and contributed to cultivate his
fields of grain, and to defend the settle
ment from more savage tribes. He was
possessed of several thousands of horses
and neat cattle, which were under the
care of his servants. There were collected
at different times from twenty to fifty
families, and there were in the course of
years some hundreds of persons connec-
ted with this settlement. He is described
as having been hospitable and generous
to strangers, and the Governors of Cal
ifornia bear testimony to the vi gor with
which he performed the duties of his
civil and military commission"
