TRIALS OF MARRIED LIFE.-Married life
has its trials and its sorrows. Tempers
may prove incompatible, and cali for for
bearance. Fortune may be chary of its IA
yors, and enforce self-denial. Children may
be ungratefui, and sting the poor heart that
has pillowed them. Sickness may come,
and haunt household for years. But ask
the poor man, struggling along with his
debts, and the weary woman, toiling early
and late. accomplishing the ruin of all her
beauty and her buoyancy, if they would be
placed apart, could competence be given
them. and all their trials brought to an end.
The answer would be: There is something
sweeter in this companionship of suffering
than anything the world can offer from its
storehouse of joys outside of it, and soms-
thing which would make even seyerer tri-
ais than ours only iron bands to draw us
more firmly together. Springfield Re

Late from the Mines.

The news from the mines is quite favor
bic. The parties who are running sluiees
seem to be well satisfied. The original
Gregory claims, which were sold for S21,-
600, are now nearly or quite paid for. The
money-all taken out of them-has been
paid in installments faster than called for
by the contract. The Defrees company,
from South Bend, Indiana, have sold out at
a large profit. Several gentlemen from the
mines started for Omaha, TuesdaT, for the
purpose of procuring quartz mill from the
States. ann assured that they took with

is possible. however, that they kept it Sc
cret as precautionary measure. for there
are many desperadoes in the country.
Prospecters are starting out in all direc-
tions, and some promising new leads are dis
covered. They are mainly near the ssnoW
range" !" where, IN the rayines, there are yet
snow banks six feet in depth. The short
ness of the season there is unfavorable to
mining. Some fine specimens of quartz
are taken out. In one or two which have
seen, the particles of gold are not only yisi-
bic to the naked eye, but so numerous as to
render their own hue the general color of
the stone. They are about twice the size OF
a Sharp's rife ball. a specimen weighing
two pounds, which was discovered a day or
two since, is estimated TO contain four oun-
ces of gold. A friend who has seen it de-
scribes il as very rich.s In spite of the ia

Adopted Citizens Abandoned by the
~ Dem ocracy.


German citizens of New York are very
much agitsted about the new position of the
Democracy on the question of the rights of
adopted citizens while abroad.
Gen. Cass has written two letters on the
subject, and both of them ignore the princi-
pie. that the flag of the country protects
them wherever they may go or be. One
of these undertakes to define the position
of the United States. In his letter to A.V.
Hofer he says: =
ssThe position of the United States is that
native born sPrussians naturalized in the
United States, and returning to the country
OF their birth, are not liable to any duties or
penalties except such as acre ezistsn9 at the
period Of their enaigrafiors.'
The exception covers the case, and this,
! too, by Gen. Cass' own admission.
| GHOST of the European nations have
military organization by which their citizens
are compelled to serve in the armey by con-
scription, as in France, where the duty is
designated by lot, or by draft; as in Prussia,
where every person is required to take his
turn as a soldier.
How then shall the Frenchmen or Prus-
sian, as naturalized citizen Of the United
States, escapeif voluntarily" he returns
to France or Prussia? - Ssi
He comes to us-he swears allegiance to
the United States-he renounces all 10y
atty to his native land-and yet, where is
his protection? Our Government gives
him none. 1t tells him, ifyou owed mill
tary service at the time of your emigration,
you must pay it, s'if like a fugitive, you are
caught in your native land. -
This is a eowardly position and . mean
doctrine, neither having any basis in iustice
or any sympathy with freedom. Perpetual
allegiance is only cunning device of des-
potism at best, and for Government to de-
clare to the world that it respects the pFin-
| ciple, that it viii not or dare not protect
any citizen of the Republic wherever he
may 90 or be, is an insult alike to the Dig
nifty Of the nation. the chartered rights Of
the Republic. the nature of our Institutions
and the intelligence of our people.
: We are not surprised at the doctrine of
the Democracy as thus expounded. It is
the foe of free labor and of free men at
home, and of course it will not protect
them against the despotisms broad.-Leay-
