BRoDERIcK on THE RAILRoAD.-Mr.
Broderick made speech on the 18th
ult., on the bill to construct Pacific
railway, which is to the point. We
have only room for the following, which
is a severe snub to Gwin:
regret very much that l have felt
constrained to say anything in regard to
the bill. / expected my colleague TO
have defended it, because he made, or
at least he read to the Senate some
DAYS since, very long, printed speech
occupying nearly two hours; but since
that time he has not been as watcEtul as
he was before the reading of his speech,
Isuppose he took it for granted that his
speech convinced every Senator upon
this floor of the necessity of building a
road to the Pacific. l hope it has. 1t
convinced me of the necessity of going
for road but as am very anxious to
build a road to California, and not to
Mexico, | favor the middle route for
uny colleague knows as well as do that
north q: San Francisco thrce-fourths, if
not fnur-fifths, of the people OF the State
of California reside. From Fort Yuma.
where the southern route strikes the
boundary Of California, it is, L think,
over seven hundred miles to San Fran
cisco. YOU could not construct railroad
there within a shorter distance. If the
middle route is selected, 1t will reach
6ienoa. in Carson Valley, or it will
reach Mobiles Pass thence along the
Sacramento Valley to Sacramento, and
thence to San Francisco. From Genoa,
in Carson Valley, to Placerville. in Cal
ifornia, it is but seventy five miles, over
the old emig~ant road. At Placerville
there is a fine city, with population. |
suppose of from six to eight thousand.
1t is one of the most populous and flour
ishing cities outside of San Francisco,
Sacramento and Marysville, i'll the State
of California.

LONDON
CLUB HOUSE GIN
TO THE PUBLIC.

~ This celebrated Gfr-pretentfing to nothing
but what it is, viz pure and upsduferated arti-
tele, and assuming no artificial merits Of what it is
not, as some Of its rival imisators do-after i've
years of public approva! and very extensive sales
in Californis has been pronounced BY the public to
be superior, not only - beverage Of general use,
to any other article competing agsinst It, but is
UnrivaI1ed in its Medical Efficiency
in most cases of complaints. To persons travelling
in these days ofrapid transit from East to West,
North to South, who constantly changing their
water As we'll their climate who drinking, in
deed, dozen kinds of water in every twenty-four
hours, and each drssght containing some property
thereby causing unnatural degree of excitement
to the stomach-it is positively and absolutely
esssTy to use q counteructmg agent From tho fact
that the
'London Club House Gin,"
is prepared expressly to meet such exgencies and
to act we know it will act, antdote we con-
dently prescribe il as the very best article in the
country. The name of Aromatic Scheidam
schnapps" has never been attached in any way to
this article In first presenting the
London Club House Gin."
to the public my aim was 70 give them pure and
unadulterated article of Gin, and to call it by its
right The success attending IT'S Introduction
and extensive sale in California is sufficient guar
antee of the high appreciation of the article by con-
sumers.
Variou: parties have from time to time put up
and shipped to California article which they call
"CLuB HOUSE GIN" My Gin, which has gained
such reputation in California, is branded on the
cases,
"Old London Club House Gin, W. II. D"
The bottles also have n white abe! with fac similie
ofmy signature. 1 caution all parties to beware of

spare. If we gain the point, I'll give you a
dollar apiece"
The. .boys strained every nerve, and Charlcss
paddle made the water hy like the tail of a
wounded shark. When within half dozen
rods of the Shore Charles urged them again to
spring with all their might, and one of the BOYS
making desperate plunge upon his oar, and
snapped it in two. The first pullof the other
oar headed the boat from land Charles saw at
once that the delay must be fatal, if he depend
cd on the boat TO carry him ashore. The water
was but three feet deep, and the bottom was
sandy. lie sprung from the boat, and rushed
towards the shore as fast as he was able to
press through the water. lie flew up the bank
and along the road, till he reached the school
house. The door was open, but he could see
no one within Several children were at play
round the door, who, having seen Charles ap-
proach with such haste, stood with mouths and
eyes wide open, looking at him.
"Whcre's the school-ma'am ?" said Charles.
hastily, TO one of the largest boys.
"Why?" said the boy, opening his eyes still
wider, "is any of the folks dcadP"
You little rascal, say, where's the school
ma am
"She just went down that road" said the
boy ''two or three minutes ago"
"Was she alone ?" said Charles.
"She started alone" said the boy, "and man
met her out there a little ways, and turned about
and went with her"
Charles felt that his cake was all dough again.
and that he might as well give it up as a bad
job, and 90 home. Stephen Jones and Lucy
Brown walked re,y leisurely home through the
woods, and Charles and the boys went very
lesurcy in the boat across the pond. They
even stopped by the way, and caught a mess Of
fish, since the boys had thrown their lines into
the boat when they started And when they
reached the wharf, Charles, in order to show
that he had been fishing, took a large string
Of fish in his hand, and carried them up to the
house. Miss Lucy Brown, on her way home
through the woods, had undoubtedly been in
formed of the proposed tea-party for the eve
ming. to which she was invited, and to which
Stephen Jones and Susan Jones were not in
vtcd and when Miss Lucy's invitation came,
she sent word back, that she was enyagel.

A RACE FOR A SWEETHEART.
BY MIR. sEBA SMITH

Hardly any event creates a stronger sensation
in thinly settled New England village, espec-
tally among the young folks, than the arrival of
fresh and blooming miss, who comes to make
her abode in the neighborhood. When, there
fore, Squire johnson, the only lawyer in the
place, and a very respectable man, of course,
told Farmer Jones one afternoon that his wife $
sister, a smart girl of eighteen, was coming in a
few days to reside in his family, the news flew
like wildfre through Pond village, and was the
principal topic of conversation for week. Pond
village is situated upon the margin of one of
those beautiful sheets of water that gem the
whole surface of New England, like the bright
stars in an evening sky, and received its appel
lation to distinguish it from two or three other
villages in the same town. which could not boast
of similar location. When Farmer Jones came
in to his supper, about sunset, that afternoon,
and took his seat at the table, the eyes of the
whole family were upon him, for there was a
peculiar working about his mouth and know
ing glance of his eve, that always told them
when he had something of interest to communi-
cate. But Farmer Jones secretiveness was large,
and his temperament not the most active, and
he would probably have rolled the important
secret as a sweet morsel under his tongue for a
long time, had not Mrs. Jones, who was of rath-
or an impatient and prying turn of mind, con-
trived to draw it from him.

"HoLD on DAR.'-The Piqua Is. c. Regis
ter has the following in recent issue, describing
an incident among the slaves:
"Quite revival is now in progress at the AZ
rican church in this city. We were presant
few evenings since and witnessed, with much
qualification, their earnest devotion. OF the in
cidents we cannot fail to note one: A brother
was supplicating the throne eloquently, when
another brother called out in stentorian voice
Who dat praying ober dar?'
The response was,-' OATS brudder Nose
Hold on dar, brudder Nose " was the dictum
of the former, you let brudder Ryan pray, he's
better 'quainted wild de Lord dan YOU am = Brud-
