MusIc.-The following original ideas are
from the Amador Ledger. The criticism is
nice and philosophical
sgrhe man that hath music in himself
Nor is not moy'd with concord of sweet sounds,
Is fit for treasons, stratagems and spoiis:
The motions of his spirit are as Gull as night,
And his affections dark as Erebus;
Let such man be trusted.
These words Shakespeare puts into the
mouth of Lorenzo, young lover just in the
height of his success, and while in the pres
ence of his lady love- Was man in any
such predicament ever known to say anything
sensible or reasonable? And yet they are
quoted as.proof positive that love ofmusic
is a sure index Of goodness! The same
author, in "Troilus and Cressida," says:
'sBut you are wise;
Or else YOU lore not: For to be wise. and love,
Exceeds mans might
And again, in ''The two Gentlemen of ye-
roma" he says:
"Even so by love the young and tender wit
Isturned to folly
Possessing q deep knowledge of human
nature, as Shakespeare did, he never could
have put such praise of a love of music in a
wise mans mouth Was there not
music in his witches? Do not all of his
worst characters sing? Had they not done
So human nature could not have been then
what it now is, or else he did not faithfully
portray it. Now, our greatest rascals are all
lovers of music. Our ears are daily greeted
with the songs of the prisoners confined in
the cells of the Jail. The music is none the
less sweet because of its source yet it causes
sad feelings when we think how such gifts
of the Creator are possessed by beings so
base. Such sweet sounds should come only
from the good, and yet the jailor tells us
that the greatest rogue he has ever had in
charge, had the most emusic in himself"
The pirates have their Bacchanalian songs
over their booty-the Siren enticed her vic
Tins by her music-even the devils so loved
music that they permitted Eurydice to es
cape from their confines, so entranced were
they by the strains of Orpheus. No, no; mu
sic is powerful, but is alike for evil and good;
let us not be deceived either by its presence
or absence tThe man that hath no music
in himself" may be stern and infexible in
his integrity, unmoved by any of the sophis
tries of vice while he that is filed with it to
overfowing, is all the more open to its al
lurements-shows that he is of that tenn
permanent which is easily moved and there
for easily led into temptation. Is it not true,
that he who has most emusic in himself is
easiest moved to ''treasons, stratagems and
spoils ?"

SoSoRIANs EMIGRATING.-Some time ago il

the removal of the native Sonorans from
California, and here is the latest item about
it:
Senores Escalante and RetaS, dispatched
as Commissioners by the Sonorians of Cali

an interview with Gov. Pasquiera, and OBJ
tanned large concessions of land on the rivers
Yaqui and Mayo, for the colony to settle
They would return to San Francisco in the
summer to complete their arrangements for
the embarkation of the .'native Sonorians''
from California.

pursuing. He lived at Lebanon, Ohio, and

ROMANCE OF THE PRIZE RISG.-The Utica
Observer announces the approaching marri-
age of John Heenan, the "Benicia Boy"
to beautiful young lady of high position,
socially and aristocratically, who has been
regarded by the artists of Cincinnati with
much admiration who has great talents, and
writes great deal for various periodicals.
She was born in a soldiers barracks, and
educated as Soldiers Daughter This was
a case, on both sides, of love at first sight.
Some bloodthirsty brothers, however, have
sworn to bar the marriage, and the young
lady is closely watched; but there is no doubt
of the "Benicia Boy and the military STAR
being married, in spite of all these pugulistic
displays made by her Porkopolis admirers"

~, was assisted by Andrew Hunter, counsel for

on his head. C"ppee is uniniured. Stevens seem
ed less injured than Brown, but looked haggard

treaty of peace, framed at Zurich, has been sign

agreed upon terms and it is said that tri part,-

. Extent of the Harpsr's Ferry PlOt.-The N. z.
Post, in course of its comments on the late iusur-
rection, says: .-. -
''Rumors which are current among the free
blacks of this city represent that this outbreak
was only permature explosion Of more gener
al conspiracy. 1t is alleged that rising all over
the States of Maryland and Virginia was eontem-
plated that the Oath of October was the day ap-
pointed for the attempt, and that the seizure Of
the Arsenal was to be the signal to the insurgents
The taking of the Arsenal in anticipation Of the
day whereby the conflict has been precipitated,
before the slaves were ready for it, is supposed
to be mistake of some one entrusted by the lead
ers with the execution of that part of the plot

or whether they are mere inventions, got up after
