A MOUNTAIN Man on MouxrAlys.-Ata festival

A MOUNTAIN MAN ON NMoUNTAINS-Ata1 q FESTIVAL
in st. Louis, Sierra county, D. T. Berry said:
"The voice of the past tells us that frowning
rocks and rugged mountains have often sheltered
and protected the spirit Of liberty after it had
been driven out from verdant lawns and luxuri-
ant wales. The pleasant valleys of Europe have,
during the middle ages, been periodically over
run and ravaged by a mercess foe, until, at
times, it would seem that the last spark Of liberty
was about to be extinguished. France, Spain,
Austria and the lower countries have shared this
fate, and have been forced into many changes in
their forms of government and habits of life.
But where all this while, was the Swiss Republic
the land OF Vim. Tell! There she stood, and
there she now stands, perched upon the summit
of her Alpine mountains and protected by their
impenetrable barriers, she breathes the same
spirit of liberty which she inhaled thousand
years ago. The lowlands of England and Scot
land have been invaded and subjugated by the
Romans, the Saxons the Danes and the Normans,
and have undergone many changes in their laws,
language, manners and customs-while the Gram
plan hills have shielded the Scottish Higblanders
from the ravages of those invaders, preserved
them in their ancient spirit Of liberty, and the
Gaelic language is still spoken on the heights of
Ben Nevis. Wales, too, has suffered from En-
glands many conquerors, and when driven to
their last refuge, her people have shielded them
selves within the bosom of the mountains of
Snowdon; and should the despots of the old
world combine against us. and gain foothold
on these shores, liberty will yet find resting
place amid the dark cafons and recesses of our
lofty Sierras."

so feelngly of the poor, suffering, non -combatant

tiles. We are informed by a man who was with
him that, only one year ago, he led party of
between twenty and thirty men to where num-
Der of Cinnamon were working on forbidden
ground somewhere back of the Four Mile House.

"a Blow OUT."-We think the term origina-
ted with iron workers. In that pursuit the smelt-
ing furnace is kept in constant blast ten months
of the year, after which it is found necessary to
Z" blow out" or permit the fire to cease, that the
hearth, or bottom of the furnace may be repair
ed. During this cessation the furnacemen settle
up and go on protracted spree, which lasts un-
til the furnace bellows again begin to blow then
all hands sober up and go to work. In gold min
ing blowout generally takes place as a con-
scquent of extraordinary good fortune-on dis
covering rich deposit, or because of finding
big chunk. Work is suspended parties so dis
posed, repair TO the nearest trading post and dis
pose of their loose change, get drunk play cards,
and after running" certain time, return to
work to regret the foolish extravaganza. OF late
very few miners find ii convenient to thus blow
outi their hard earnings they learn that after
having blown-out their bottom dollar" the in
dividuals benefited by the blast seem to forget
their prodigality when " fellow is dead broke"
But some people are always blowing out y pos
sessed of few dollars they feel uneasy and en-
barrassed until they have relieved themselves of
the responsibility, and this disposition is, by no
means, peculiar to miners only. But with all, as
in the iron furnace after an extensive "blow-
out" the blowers discover nothing but cindcrs
