The SHooTINe AFFRAY AT VIRGINIA Cry
In reference to the late shooting ARRAY at Virginia
City, noticed on our rstpage the Territorial Enter
prize says:
II appears that party Of men occupied the house
of German named Elder, which, though notified,
they declined to vacate. Elder, it is reported, had
Threatened to put them out by force whereupon sew
eral OF their number proceeded to his cabin and
called to him to come out, which he refused to do,
saying he did not want to have fight with them.
They then attempted to enter when his wife, seeing
they were about to pistols, entreated them not
to shoot placing herself between them and her hus-
band The intruders, however, at once commenced
firing on the inmates. The woman was badly
wounded, being shot through the Leg above the
knee. The husband also, received ball in the
thigh; and his brotherin-law Mr.. HILL one through
the arm. The men are not seriously hurt. Dur
ing the melee, Of the attacking party an Irish
man, named Hughes, while lying down, was shot
through the head and, is supposed, through mis-
take, by one of his companions. He died the fol-
lowing morning. This murderous attack caused a
good deal of excitement in the place; and public
meeting called TO take steps for investigating
the affair, and Furnishing the guilty parties they
however, left during the night, and nothing further,
We suppose, will be done in the matter.

PunsArrovs OF TIE HEART TAa left

PULsArroNs OF TIE HEART The left
ventriclc or cavity of the heart acts as
powerful piston, and by it's contractions
discharges into the great artery of tho
body IL certain quantity of arterial blood
at each contraction. These contractions
constitute, in fact, the pulse Of the heart;
but as the blood so discharged passes along
the arteries to every part of the body, it
is usual for the physiologist, and more es-
pecally the medical man, to reason the
number of these contractions at some of
the more remote arteries, and the radical
artery at the wrist is the vessel usually
selected. The phenomenon called the
pulse, is enormously supposed by many to
reside in the arteries, but it is dependent
solely on the action of the heart and on
the pressure Of the Observers finger.
The number of pulsations is simply the
number of contractions which the left
ventricle of the human heart performs in
a given time.

PHYSICAL AND Moral IMPROVEMENT
\ clean, comfortable dwelling, with whole
some meals is no small aid to intellectual
and moral progress. A man living in Il
damp cellar or garret, open to rain and
snow. breathing the foul air Of y filthy
roon, and striving without success to APP
pease hunger on scanty and unsavory
food. is in danger Of abandoning himself
to desperate, selfish recll!essness. I'M
prove then your lot. Multiply comforts.
and still more get wealth if you can by
honorable means, and if it do not cost too
much. A true cultivation of the mind is
fitted to forward you in your worldly con-
Germs, and you ought to use it for this
end. Only beware, lest this end master
you; lest your motives sink ss your con-
dtion improves; lest you fall victims to
the miserable passion of vying with those
around you in show, luxury and expense.

The Farmer.

There is no life SO full of blessings, and
so free from anxieties, as that Of the cul-
tivator of the soil Contentment is said
to be the sum of human happiness, and it
is truth none will venture to dispute
That business, therefore, which affords An
equal and harmonious exercise to all the
feelings and faculties of the mind, is most
conducive to it, Now we ask, is not this
the precise character of the farmers oc-
oupation? His bodily organization is
strengthened, and the measure ofhis days
extended by the nature of his daily toll.
The fountains Of feeling in his heart are
never exhausted by the occupations Of the
head, and he regards with the keenest
sensibiities every thing in nature that
ministers to human enjoyments. He has
no influence over the market, exceptiri SO
far as it is controlled by the supply of its
demands and he is never tempted to So
licit favor at the expense of his principle
While he is sreposing upon his couch rapt
in dreamless ,slumber, or seated saa1a
bounteous board partaking with keenest
relish his invigorating meal, the hand Of
nature is blessing him in his Sbasket and
in his store" In short, he is the offspring
of nature. She furnishes the impulse OF
his heart, directs the actions of his hands,
and his integrity is as immutable as her
own laws. The following remarks upon
the same subject, are extracted from aff
an article upon the " effect of climate and
scenery upon the mind" and exhibit the
facts in very clear light and attractive
language:-
The quiet rcposc and placid loveIineas
of the cultivated landscape stretching out
in dim pcrspective-no less than the ra0
gcd grandeur and wild sublimity of tho
mountain and the forest-the purity Of
the atmosphcre-and habitual contcmrla-
ton of the ever changing phenomcna of
nature, irresistibly tend to the elevation
of charactcr-the termination and growth,
Of thought-and the predomlnance OF tho
better feelings and impulses Of the heart.
The intellectual faculties may be and fire.
qaently are moro rapidly developed, and
more speedily matrucd by the collis-
ion of mind with mind, produced by the
diversified interests and pursuits Of
crowded population; but all history and
experience have demonstrated that the
substantial clements of charactcr-ths
moral sentimcnts-thc virtue and graces
ofpublic and private lifc-incoruptiblc in-
tegrity-dcvoted patriotisnl-diflsiyeb be-

use Of them, instead Of giving them to his

wretch? If he should rather choose to
amusc himself with furnishing his house
with these things than to entitlc him to
an eternal reward by giving them to
those that wanted eyes and bands might
we not justly reckon him mad? Now
money has very much the nature of eyes
and feet; if we lock it up in chests or
waste it in needless expenses upon our-
selves, while the distressed want it for
their necessary uses; if we consume it in
the ridiculous ornaments of apparel,
while others are starving in nalcdness,
we are not far from the cruelty of him
that chooses rather to adorn his house
with hands and eyes than to give them to
those that want them. If we choose to
indulge ourselves in such enjoyments as
have no real use in them and satisfy no
real wsnt, rather than to obtain an eter-
nal reward by djsposing Of our money

chooses TO lock up eyes and hands rather

TALENTS ALWAYS AscENDANr.--Talents,
which are before the public, have nothing
to dread, either from the jealous pride of
power, or from the transient misrepresen-
tations of party spleen or envy. In spite
of opposition from any cause, their buoy
ant spirits will lift them to their proper
grade. He who possesses the great and
vigorous stamina which entities him to a
niche in the temple of glory, has no rea-
son to dread the ultimate result; however
slow his progress may be, he will, in the
end, most Individually receive that distinc-

Zach One hath a Part to Do.

Men and brothers up, be doing,
Help each other by the way,
aid with hand and heart the dawning
or great and mighty day.
Think not earth hath fixed teachers,
Progress ocntered in the few;
All men more or less are missioned-n
Each one hath part to do.
Lerd your aid, however little,
Lend your talent, though it's smull
TriAes thrive by combination,
Working for the good of all;
Truth is slow, and wants assistance
Of the many with the few;
Every man, however feeble,
Hath part he's skilled to do.
Faint not lag not in your doing,
Still press onward; ye will find
Brilliant sunbeans flashing ever
From thy archives of the mind;
Earth holds not a human creature,
Meancst pauper ye may view,
If he hath spark of reason,
But be hath part to do.
All men may assist each other,
Though it but trihc be;
Tiny streams mako flowing rivers,
Rivers make mighty sea.
One may do the work of many,
Many help the oiling few;
Thus with all men, high or low,
Each one hath part to do.
Many pillars bear the temple,
Varied in their strength and height;
and, though versatile IN greatness,
Each contributes to its might.
Thus, though men proclaim their weakness
And their talents small and few,
Zach one shares in human greatness,
Each one hath part to do.
Mcn and brethren onward onward!
Lag not till the work is done;
Grow in ardor, grow in earnest,
For the dawning has begun.
Let no heart be found to tarry,
Stirring impulse bear You through,
All men aid the day that's dawning-
Each man hath part to do.

considerable excitement exists in that

discovered near Adairsville, and confessed
by some of the negroes. But it appears
that the facts developed by the investiga-
ton of special committee do not warrant
it. During the day man recently dis
charged from the penitentiary was detec-
ted in trying to instil wrong notions into
the mind of a negro, who informed against
him. He had with him negro boy fif
