"Social enjoyment depends in great
measure on the disposition and capaci-
ties of those who seek it; and if every
one would take half the trouble to en-
courage social feeling and harmony, that
they do to disturb the peace of their
neighbors by idle scandal and fault-fnd-
ing, they would soon find themselves

be found wherever civilization and in

TRINITY JoURNAI.-This paper,
which has won celebrity under the edi-
torial conduct of Calvin B. Mcdonald,
has entered on its fourth year-the Sec
ond under his charge. Commenting on
the fact, the editor thus POLITICALLY re-
marks:
Turn the leaf How pure and white !;
but an invisible hand has written it all
verwith the years prophecies. Here,
slowly revealing to mortal vision, is a
sorrow; there calamity; further on
are some men digginga grave; there is
a child laughing in a paradise of flow
ers; yonder is sable figure pressing
her forehead on stone whose sculptu-
rings contain heart-history. But do
not strive to read-not till advancing
day shall have revealed the flowers and
groves that intervene; not till the voices
of beautifully singing birds are heard
above the croak of the raven that claps
his sinister wings along the distant ho-
rizon. The beautiful world has joy as
well as sorrow, as much of day as night,
millions of sunbeams, as W ell as storm
boding clouds-as many songs as dirges,
as many smiles as tears.

NEGLECT OF GENIUS james Linen
delivered an able address on the occa-
sion of the late Burns centennial ami
versary, at the fremont House, San
Francisco. We make the subjoined
extract:
Scotland is tainted with first starving her bard, and
afterwards erecting splendid monuments in honor OF
his memory 1t is true he died neglected by the very
men who knew his wants and had it in their power to
alleviate them lie had dedicated his poems ito the
Nubemen and Gentlemen of the Caledonia Hunt; but
beyond subscribing for copy each at the request OF
the Earl of Glencairn should like to know what that
titled band ever did for Burns while living except
elly degrading him by a disreputable appointment
with salary sufficient to bind decently body and
soul together. His income, when he fell sick, Yves
duced to f35 year. Lord IIawkesbury declined
personal introduction to the poet when quartered at
Dumries: and yet, strange to say he oiciated
of the chief mourners at his funeral 1t is difficult
reconcile such inconsistency of character. We
vast amount of very small feeling exempited in
own day, even III very midst. Gold, and not intel
ect is taken the standard OF the man. Burns was
shamefuy neglected while living it is true: but it
does follow that neglect of genius is peculiar to
Scotland No country stands entirely free from the
mputation. Homer stroleda as ballad singer, recting
his immortal verses, and seven cities claimed him when
dead. Socrates poisoned by the Athenians. Ger
vante the great genius Of Span had not bread to eat
at period: and l2mOenS. the prlue fcr-
tugal persisted want of the necessaries of life.
Toneel died in wretchedness and penury; Tasso and
Ariosto were miseraby poor. When Racine was asked
by Louis XIV what there was new In the literary
world he told the French monarch that he had
melancholy spectacle in the house of Corneile, the
poet whom found in dying state. without bread to
eat. Can our sister country England, boast of what
she has done for of her poetss Did not Spencer
languish in miserable poverty? Did not Samuel Butler

public funeral? Was not Savage buried at the expense
of his benevolent jaor, Were not Collins and Gold
smith wretchedly poor As for 0tway and Chatterton,
they were starved to DEATH could dwell this mel
ancholy subject for hours. All that can say in regard
to Burns is this that the present generation is not
countable for the neglect and bunders of the last
The adoption of any other principle would be carrying
out the letter the old Mosaic law, by 'ysitine the
iniques of the fathers upon their children" We do
well give good account ofour own omissions
and commissions, without being saddled with the
transgressonS of our ancestors.

We CoNcUR.-A correspondent Of
the Union is glad at the course pursued
by the Assembly in rejecting the propo-
sition of hiring Chaplain. He says !:
81 do not believe the clergy stand any
nearer to God than the same number of
honest, well-behaved men of any other
calling. And it is my opinion that the
educated of mankind need no ordained
intercessor to stand between them and
their God"

ALaDY SpEAKs.-Nearly every town
. in the Southern mines, has its Lyceum,
orliterary and debating society. This
may be considered an evidence ofmental
and social progress.
The Campo Seco Lyceum was lately
honored by having a lady, Mrs. Maria
Hill, read before it an original essay on
"Woman's Virtues and her Errors"
The essay is printed in the San An
dreas Independent, and we append a
short extract that our readers may see
what women there are in the Southern
mines:
"Men too often treat their wives as
interiors, not as companions of their
minds. What care they that their
wives lack intellectual food Topics
that would elevate woman's mind are
never discussed between them. She
may be the sharer of his fortunes, but
of. that higher inward life she partakes
not. What wonder then, that with SO
little ennobling in life, she sinks into a
domestic drudge, or, worse still, a dirty
slattern; finds her resources in scandal
and 6nery; while she attends to the
animal wants of her children, she neg
lects the nobler part, the immortal soul,
-embroiders their petticoats, but leaves
her mind (if she ever thinks she has
one unadorned.
Then if woman with intellectual
capacities steps out from the common
walks of life, she is ridiculed, as intren-
ching on mans lordly prerogative-pre-
eminence of mental power. Woman
must move as the satellite of man, say
they. Let her darn stockings and make
pap.
Man to man so oft unjust, is doubly so to woman

WooLY.-The last report of county
Assessors estimated the number of sheep
in the State at 1900. Since such
reports were made, sufficient inaccura-
els have been discovered to render it
certain there were at least 100000 IN
the performance Of their duties.

We have been told the "whole duty
of man." but what are the duties of
sheep?

To THE PoINT.-The Columbia

We have no sympathy with any man

themselves in antagonism to every law

ing other men, no matter what the
country Of their nativity may be,
from the pursuit of an honest occupation.
The broad mantle Of our institutions

any one who would prevent such inten-

bringing such institutions into disrepute.
