A New VIEW OF THE APosTLEs.-A regu-
lar reporter reports portion of the New
Years discourse of Henry Ward Beecher, as
follows:
''In speaking of our Saviour, Mr.. Beecher
alluded to the twelve Apostles as men without
character, intelligence, honesty, education, or
worth They were taken by Jesus from the
lowest dregs of society-from the fishing boats
and novels of the land where they resided.
But one of them-St. Paul-could lay any
claim to knowledge, and he was not of the orig
inal twelve, but one came in after the first or
ganization had been effected Comparing
these men with the great majority of people in
that age, the comparison sunk the Apostles
greatly below their fellows. Some were liars,
some were drrnkards, some 5etrayers, rome
seemingly worthy. Peter was pompous when
he marched at the head of the twelve, and had
no opposition to encounter; but when they
came within reach of the Jews, his sword was
showed into its scabbard, and he trembled with
fear. And then, again, how shamefully to
hear this chosen one crying out, Il know him
not And Judas betrayed his Master for the
meanest of considerations, while the rest fear
ing for their personal safety, never hesitated to
indulge in the most shameful deceptions to
cad him astray as to their real motives. The
reverend gentleman proceeded TO handle the
Apostles in severe language, and then explain
cd why such men had been chosen to carry
Gods word TO the sinful nations around them"

FOUND DEAD.

FOUND DEAD.
They found her dead
One snowy morning, in the open street
Her cold cheek resting on the pearly sheet
Around her spread,
And on her lips quiet smile reposed,
As if in sleep lile's weary dream had closed.
She slept the last, last sleep;
Deaths seal was on her brow, and she had passed,
Tired and suffering, to her home at last,
Leaving no friends to weep
No loving ones, to come, at sunset hours,
To sprinkle on her bosom tears and flowers.
No warm and gentle hand
Clasped hers in tenderness, as, in the night,
She went out gently from this world of light
Into the shadowy land;
No earthly watcher fingered at her side,
To hear her last low murmur when she died.
But did she die alone?
No! not alone! One friend kept watch with her;
One gentle voice, one loving smile was near
The desolate unknown;
One hand of mercy led her DER Deaths foam,
Into the better land, to friends and home.

THE STATE FAIR.

Up to Thursday last, the interest in this
great exhibition of California resources and
productions continued unabated Many of
the best features of it seem to have been re-
served for the last and the attendance was
constantly increasing. To give an idea of
the number of visitors, we may mention
that the receipts up to theeycning of the Goth
inst. had reached the Unprecedented and un-
expected sum Of $4,000! 1t is unquestion-
ably the most successful and imposing fair
get held in the State. The number of arti-
cles is very great, and they are more genu-
lnely Californian than at some former exhi
billions. Col. Bakers address on Tuesday
evening did credit to his reputation, and
was heard by an immense audience.
friend, writing from Sacramento. men-
tions what we must regard, with him, as
one of the most interesting features of the
fair, and that is, the fine collection Of fruit
on exhibition from Coloma, in Eldorado
county. He says Among the collection
are about two bushels of beautiful orange
coored peaches, which will weigh from one
pound to one pound and half, each. The
largest one, weighing one pound and half,
measures l29 inches in circumference one
way and l39 inches the other Singly, or
as a collection, the world might be defied in
vain to produce their equal and coming, as
they do, the product of mining county,
they are particularly remarkable There is
also on exhibition from Coloma fine lot of
apples, pears and grapes. all of which will
compare favorably with any in the hail.
Placer county has also an excellent supply
of fruits, of which she may be proud. In
fact, it should be matter of pride with all
residents in the mineral region, that they
have in their midst soil capable of yielding g
fruit to carry of the first prize when brought
in competition with the choice fruit of the
entire Pacific coast"
Our correspondent thus aiudes to another
feature of interest: in the basement of the
Pavilion there is large steam engine that
gives power to the various kinds of ma
chinery on exhibition. In this department
Messrs. II. S. Crocker & Co. have Ruggles
Press, upon which they print. in presence
of visitors, and afterwards distribute gra-
tuitously, daily paper, letter-sheet size,
called the State Far Gazette, and containing
q list of articles, incidents occurring in the
hall, advertisements, &c. There are also
two small steam engines, of fine workman
ship-one of one-horse power, used for cut
ting feed and for turning It tanning mill, and
the other of one-rat power, propelling a
miniature lathe"

DEFENcE.-Duelling has found defen-
der in the Standard, which paper is much
inclined to hold that the practice is not for
b idden by the laws of God, and should not
be by the laws of man." The opinion is
advanced that society is benefited by the
duello, that "no community has ever been
renowned for refinement and liberality in
which the custom has not prevailed" 1.-THE
same thing may be assumed of any other
crime, and we are lett to infer that force
and intimidation are the only means by
which mankind can be made civil and kept
so. BY a violent perversion of terms the
anti-duellist is called a non-resistant, and
tire assertion ventured, that Z" if he would
maintain his theory" (of non-resistance)" he
must burn all books of poetry and romance
from Jack the Giant Killer to- Tennyson's
@'Chasgc Of the Six Hundred" Now we
cannot see what this brilliant, but insane
and useless charge has to do with the ques-
tion of duelling. The Earl of Cardigan who
led it was, TO be sure, once tried by his
peers in the House of Lords for the crime of
duelling and escaped conviction only by
insufficiency of proof rs to personal denti-
ty. His moral character was not above re-
proach before the duel, and this did not pu-
rify it, for in England, which is somewhat
renowned for refinement and liberality,"
the code is not at all honored. The man
who kills another in a duel is esteemed
murderer, and the British military officer
who fight, or sends or accepts challenge
TO fight duel, or offers an insult tantamount
to provocation for q challenge, is broken
from the service With the exception of the
Cardigan and Tuckett duel there has not
been one in the British army since the la-
nous meeting between Fawcett and Monroe,
which terminated fatally to the former.
Monroe was tried, convicted, sentenced to
death and was waiting execution in New
gate at the time of the Coronation of Queen
Victoria. By an act of mercy usual on such
occasions, all prisoners under sentence of
death were pardoned by the young sove-
reign, and thus only did Monroe escape the
penalty of his crime. In spite of this aver
sion to the ciyilzng code Great Britain con-
triHes to get along somehow, waxing more
'trefined and LIBERAL every year and in
our humble opinion California will never
be like her until she also frowns upon the
duello and Furnishes severely those who dare
practice it,

MORE TROUBLE IN CHINA.-The peaceful
settlement that was about to be effected be-
tween England and China was interrupted,
on the oath of June, by fatal mistake. The
British Minister attempted to sail up the
Peiho to Pekin with large feet, for the
purpose of concluding pending negotiations.
The river was barred across by iron stakes
and booms, which the English proceeded to
remove in sight of some Chinese forts. This
movement drew heavy and remarkably
skillful fire upon them, the object of the
fleet being evidently misconstrued into a
hostile one by those in charge of the forts.
The English lost about FIVE hundred men
and were compelled to retire. 1t was not
known at last advices what would be the
result of this unfortunate affair.

THE LAST OF Observation-Disclosures $
dead Senator has been taken to his long
home. Such honors were never before paid
to any mans memory in this State, as were
acco rded him during the two days his re-
mains were above the earth. Thirty thou
sand people bowed before the majesty of his
white brow and closed eyes. The most elo-
quent man on this coast pronounced his eu-
logy, and gave voice to the regrets of the
entire commonwealth. Although an orphan
and the last of his race, he went to
the grave attended by thousands of true
friends. lie must have deserved these, when
even an enemy could utter such noble tri-
butte to his worth as the following, which is
taken from the San Francisco Herald:
We were not among his friends. In the
mad whirl of politics in early times in CAL
ifornia, the editor of this paper and Mr.
Broderick became estranged. Since then,
in the vicissitudes of political life, we have
been as enemies or strangers but it affords
us a melancholy reflection to remember that
throughout the varying fortunes of both. we
never spoke of him unkindly And now
that he lies stark and cold, every virtue his
friends claim for him we cheerfully accord
bold decision, indomitable WILL force of
character to an extraordinary degree, a cour-
age that never failed him, genuine Kindness
of heart-and add to these, an intellect far
above mediocrity. 1t cannot be denied that
he filled large space in the hearts of the
people of California. No man had more de-
voted friends and, as a party leader, he
was without an equal in our State The
man who could attach to him so many thou
sands of our citizens in ardent and unselfish
devotion mnst have been possessnd of quail
tiles of no common order. We do not Weld
to any of his friends in heartfelt regret for
his untimely decease in the very beginning
of a career so brilliant as that which dawned
upon him two years since; and how much
soever we may have differed in our political
views, that cannot prevent us paying SIM
pie tribute of justice to his memory. May
he have everlasting rest"
