Nor WRITING IIouE-A St. Louis correspon-
dent of the Marysyille Express says: "a lady
AN entire stranger to me-hcaring that Cali
fornian had arrived IN st. Louis, sought me out,
and at once instituted inquiries concerning her
husband. In hopes of bettering the condition of
her family, she parted with nearly every thing Of
value she possessed TO enable her husband TO
reach the Golden State. He has been absent
over four years, during which time she has heard
OF him but once, and that through a third person
with whom he is in correspondence The wife
herself has never had her heart gladdened by a
letter from him. The faithcss husband, howev-
er, writes to others that he is doing well.
thought this very hard case. She gave me his
direction, and have written to the Postmaster
Of the place, requesting him. if the husband
(whose name | send) be still in hat locality, to
inform his heart-brokcn wife and helpless chill
dren. Such dcscrtion is criminal in the highest
degree, and very justly arouses public indigna
ton. While the poor woman spoke OF her wrongs,
big tears Hlled her eyes, and at the conclusion,
when she came to speak Of her love for her hus-
band, of the happy days they had spent together,
OF the children who each day lisped their fathcr's
name and asked when he was " coming home, -
aud of her loss to account for his cold neglect,
She sobbed aloud. 1t was to me painful inter
view. How many similar cases could be described,
! leave the guilty husbands and fathers Of Cali
Iorna to say.

MORALS OF SANTA BARBARA.--The grand jury
Of Santa Barbara county, in report sent to the
San Francisco Herald give the following account
OF the morals Of portion of the people of that
county. 1t is by no means fiattering:
Thieves and villains Of every grade have been
from time to time upheld, fostered and pampered
by our influential citizens and if need be, aided
and assisted in escaping from the punishment due
10 their crimes, Characters similar to those inst
named, have frequently been seen sitting beside
the wealthy and influential in their carriages,
traversng our streets, or mounted on richly ca
parsoned steeds of these same persons The
virtuous and the prostitutes, the cattle thief and
the intineniial have been too often seen mingling
together at parties and balls. In fact, it is with
deep regret that we are compelled to publish the
fact TO the world, that the ruling population
make little or distinction as to the characte ter
of their associates if there is any preference, it
is in favor Of the vicious.

EARTH AND ETERNITY--FINE CoMPARGsoN.-
Rev. Mr.. Barnes, in his sermon on Life at Three
Score.' illustrates the magnitude Of eternal
things as be approaches the end Of life, compared
with those which ordinarily occupy the attention
of mankind, by the following beautiful figure:
/" The Earth, as il moves in its orbit from year
TO gear, maintains its distance of 25,000,000 Of
miles fIom the Sun and the Sun, except when
seen through h1zy atmosphere, at its rising or
It's setting, seems at all times TO be Of the same
magnitudc-to human view an object always
small compared with our own world. But
suppose the Earth should leave its orbit and make
its way in a direct line towards the Sun. How
soon would the Sun seem TO enlarge its dimen-
Fions! How vast and bright would it become
How soon would it fill the whole field of vision,
and all on the Earth dwiudle to nothing SO
human life now appears to me. In earlier years
eternity appeared distant and small in npor-
tance. But at the period Of life which ! have
now reached, il seems 10 me as if the Earth had
left the orbit Of its annual movements, and was
making rapid and direct light to the Sun. The
objects Of eternity, towards which / am moving
rapidly enlarge themselves. They have become
Overpoweringly bright and grand They fill the
whole field of vision, and the Earth, with all
which is the common object Of human ambition
and pursuit, is vanishing away"
