picture Of s Modern bemoorats.

The Csaaral Kes'taeEi0n, 3 journal print
ed in Slave State. gives true picture of
a modern Democrat, as follows:
s.To be q true modern Democrat, is TO
divest oneself Of all individuality, to Be to
the party what dropsof water is to the i.
ocean; to neither haYe nor express any opin.-
ion not in accordance with the latest manu-
factured party platform TO adopt, change,
or discard any opinion at the dictation Of
: ''the party. and at the same dietation to-
deneunce as hetsrodox what was lately held
to be the true faith, and to advocate meas
=ures lately denounced; to support the reg.
ulafly nominated candidate, however dis.al
qualified for the Office for which be is q can Z.
didate, and though notoriously mere dern-
agague, destituts of character and ability,
to laud him to the very skies as sn honest
man, a patriot and statesman of the highest
character and abilities: to denounce every
man as 'an Abolitionist' who. whatever his G
opinion of Slavery, and though he be the
largest STAKEHOLDER in the Union, will not
support the Democratic party. or who has
the manly independence to express the hon.
est sentiments of his heart to resort to
every species of deception and perpetuats
the basest frauds upon the ballot box to carr

pie whom it is the study of his life to cheat

however enormous, which transfers the pub
lie funds from the vaults of the treasury to
the pockets of the faithful; to be mere
tool and automaton, a piece of machinery
in the hands of the leaders, to sink the
man in the partisan. to recognize no dis
tinction between right and wrong, honesty
and dishonesty, worth and worthlessness,

Madame Ida PfaiHsr

This celebrated traveller has lately deceas-
ed. She was one of the most wonderful
women of the age, and the greatest female
traveller She was not far from 90 years
old. In appearance she was slight, and
rather under the middle size; her complex
ion was somewhat darkened by exposure to
weather and the heat of the climates in
which she had travelled. In 1890 she mar
ried DIR. Pfeiffer, ofLemberg. By this un-
ion she lrad two sons, one of whom followed
the musical profession, and studied under
the great Mendelssohn; and the other be-
came merchant On the death of her
husband she commenced her peregrinations
and continued them until within short time
before her death. In 1842 she travelled
through Turkey, Palestine and Egypt, and
published two volumes on those countries.
Since that date she has visited all the chief
places on the globe, in all the zones. and
among all people, from the most savage TO
the most enlightened. Once she completed
the entire circuit of the globe, and nearly
did that second time-making in all 13O,-
600 miles by water, and 1900 By land
She visited Boston in 1854, and attracted
much attention. Manytime in hert
she was in imminent peril-now from the
diseases of the strange climates, new from
the wild beasts, and now from more savage
men. Once she was attacked by murder
Gus negro in Brazil, and forced to defend
herself with a knife; and little more than a
year since the Quenn of Madagascar pro-
posed to cut her head of. At last she died
in her own land and quietly at home. Her
trials are oYer-ber dangers past.

DAILY OVERLAND MAIL The N. Y Tribune
of Oct. 9Th, in an article evidently from the
hand of its chief editor, who had Just re-
turned from California, urges Congress to
make early provision for the merging of all
our mails from the east in single daily
overland mail, to be run on the most direct
and expeditions route, and to carry every
thing offered that pays the legal rates of
postage. The Tribune continues:
"This Mail should run from the Missouri
River by the Kansas Gold Mines to Salt Lake
City (or Camp Floyd, and thence by the
new road opened by Capt. Simpson to Car
son Valley and Placerviile, making the dis
tance from Atchson or Leavenworth to San
Francisco less than two thousand miles,
which may be easily traversed in sixteen
days, and, after the first year, in fourteen
We are confident this Mail can be contracted
for less than Sl,000,000 per annum, and
that the postage created by it will soon
double, and ultimately treble, that derived
from the present California Mails. Such
Mail would have Telegraph working by its
side throughout within the next two years.
Why not have it authorised next winter?'

CALIFORNIA INvENTIoN.-Mr. Chichester, of
Los Angeles, has invented gun carriage
for ships or forts. The advantage of this
invention over the present mode of working
guns is that six men can do the work of
fourteen; that greater facility and precision
is obtained, and the cost is much less than
the present gun carriage.

JUVENILE STRATEGY.--Passing through the
Pitt river country, several years ago, our
party was continually harassed by thieving
Indians. They were frequently heard near
camp bowling like coyotes, hooting like
owls and initiating various wild animals.
One night our camp was made close to the
stream, and opposite large extent of dried
grass and tuies in which the rascals were
heard slgnalizing in their usual manner. A
small boy in camp procured string, to
which he attached stone and to the other
end a bunch of grass, which be fired and
threw across the stream. A heavy wind IA
voring, tremendous confagration ensued
and swept through the tules like whirlwind;
the valley was lighted for miles; and about
that time some notable pedestrianism was
being performed in the tall grass, accompa-
MED by prodigious yelling. We never
learned whether all the rascals escaped but
our party heard of them no more.-Kreka

There are no fish ia the Lake 1t is from
fifteen to twenty miles in diameter, with an
irregular shore line Of about one hundred
miles in extent. When agitated by strong
wind, large masses of foam are formed,
many yards in extent, which present very
unique appearance as they are piled high
upon the beach.
A singular submarine fountain exists at a
short distance from the shore. In water
about fifteen feet in depth, circular rock
rises to within about three feet of the. sur

several feet in diameter, from which a
