OBERLrN.-Oberlin College is lourishing.
This years catalogue shows a total Of l 1853
students, of whom 4s0 are females Oberlin
is located in the very heart of what might
be called John Browns tract" where the
people are born Aboitionists and where
abolitionism is taught as the "chief end of
man" and often put in practice. AS the
social equality of races Is one of the chief
dogmas inculcated there, it is not matter of
surprise that many of the students are ne
groes, and that between them and their white
companions no distinction is made Children
and youth are sent to this institution as a
duty, Just as in all christian communities thew
are sent to the Sabbath school, to acquire
the first principles of religious truth hence
the extraordinary number of pupils. Oberlin
is the nursery ofjust such men as John Brown
and his followers With arithmetic is taught

Oberlin are Masters of Art in aboitionism,

The INDIANS IN MENDocINo.-A correspon-
dent of the Sonoma County Democrat, writ.
ing from Long Valley Dec goth, referring to
outrages committed by Indians in that coun-
ty, says:
am glad to hear that there is prospect
of relief for us. The Eel River Rangers.
under command of Capt Jarboe, have been
doing the most valuable and effective service
in quelling the Indians. A portion of his
command (thirteen men) were here several
days lately, and were active in assisting us in
pursuing and chastising the guilty parties.
The correspondent adds that the command
had fight with ninety Indians on Soutf
Eel river, killing thirty and wounding a.
many more. Three of the whites were
wounded. On the 18th. the company had a
severe fight near Ronnd Valley, and killed
some thirty bucks, and took twenty-eight
prisoners.

Mn. CoLL1Ns, the spiritualist. is astonishinI

Mr.. COLLINS, the Spiritualst. is astonishing
the people of San Francisco. The Alta says:
The experiments with the spiritual medium
at Musical Hall appear to be conducted with
perfect fairness on the part of audience and
medium, both parties being satisfed-the
one. that he is tied fast enough to hold until
Judgment, the other, that his spirit friends
can loosen him so soon as he is boxed up
out of sight of his audience. Darkness ap-
pears to be necessary for the result, but it is
darkness created for the OCCASION a pine box
on trestes, with doors opening toward the
audience of thin boards not over tight, is the
means of the necessary isolation and darkness.
Last evening committee, composed of one
physician and seven shipmasters, bound him
to their apparent satisfaction, but forty min
utes in the box restored him TO freedom
After another short imprisonment. he was
taken forth bound more securely than by the
committee-the more wonderful as the audi
ence surround and see beneath the box.
Truth obliges us to add that this is one of the
most astonishing exhibitions it has fallen to
our lot to Witness.

TUE New York Tribune says that one of
the chiet terrors of an litors harrassed lot
is-not, by any means. the libel suits with
which paltry pettifoggers contrive to infest
him. nor yet the indignant nuisances who
stalk into his office to talk of cowhides and
revolvers when he wants to be quietly at
tending TO his own business, but the good
people who most unreasonably insist on en-
crossing his columns with rcplications to
attacks made upon him by somebody else.
"Take any shape but that"-cOme armed

Il would be a benefit, both to society and

The USE OF ToBAoco.-M. Bouisson. n
Frenchman, has recently made some start
ling developments of misery resulting from
the use Of tobacco-both in smoking and
chewing. In the hospitals at Montpelier and
st. Eloi, majority of cases of cancer in the
mouth, and diaease of the lips treated are de-
clared to originate from intemperate use of
the weed. Cancer in the mouth is generated,
the author declares, by the constant applica.
cation of heat to the lips He advises the
doctors of every country to commence a cru
sade against tobacco, believing that when
men become impressed with the truth of the
injury it causes, the practice will be set
aside and forgotten.

ADHERENCE IN THE RoUrEs-Under this
heading the Butte Record of Saturday says
We received call from Mr. Garfield. on
Tuesday He has recently returned from the
silver mines of Washoe, of which he gives a
very favorable account. He went out on
the Downieville route, and returned by Pla-
cerville. He regards the Bownevile route
as being decidedly the best and shortest of
the two and thinks that the means necessary
for the construction of good wagon road
along the former would not open mule trail
on the latter. Mr. c. went through on the
Downieville route during the severe storms
of Nov ember The success of the Placerville
route is an evidence of what blowing and
labor will accomplish. A tenth part of the
amount expended on the Placerville route
would have completed a good wagon road
on any of the northern routes, that might be
travelled without danger the year round.
