Lively CANvAssING IN THE French AcAD-
rafY.--One of the most beautiful women in
Paris warmly advocated Father Lacordaire's
claims to the seat in the French Academy,
made vacant by the death of De Tocqueville,
intending her eloquence for the ear of an emil
pent member of the Academy, who happened
10 be in the room. In conclusion, she directly
appealed to him to give to the friar his vote.
He replied. "Georgiana, Duchess of Devon
shire the most beautiful and most Intelligent
woman of her day, took a most active part in
the canvass for Charles James Fox. In her
zeal for the eminent orator, she even went SO
far as to solicit the votes of the humblest free
men, She was of the greatest service TO the
wing party her winning beauty, her rank,
and the splendor of her equipage, made her
indeed an irresistible advocate. In the height
of the canvass she appealed to butcher for
his vote. He said she might have it if she
would allow him to kiss her. She accepted
the terms. He kissed her. Fox got his vote"
The advocate of Friars Lacordaire understood
the apologize, and, holding out her cheek to
the very celebrated and very ugly academari-
an, said, Take your price" The bride was
instantly taken. Finally, the reverend father
secured his triumphant election. Paris Cor.

ANOTHER SET BACK.--We are glad to hear that
the pirate Walker has been stayed in his plum
dering, pillaging course, in Honduras. The
British man-of-war, Years, arrived before the
town of Truxillo and summoned Walker and his
force, numbering eighty men. to surrender, which
they did. Walker is reported to have escaped TO
the interior. Notwithstanding serious wound
which he had received iu an engagement prior
to the surrender.
What the gray-eyed invader will next do it is
hard to tell. That he is not wanted in Nicara-
qua, and in fact has no more business to SO there
aud demand the people of that country to submit
to his rule than the Emperor of Japan, no one
will deny. Walker is a disappointed, restless
man. OF his energy and daring no one expresses
a doubt But enough American lives have been
wasted in that country. Men have been lured
from home aud friends to die in battling for what
one man believes an Inherent right guaranteed
to him alone, and in some instances been shot
down like dogs or left to die in the musty dun
geous of an unhealthy climate. The country
will not mourn if Walker should never leave
Honduras alive. 4..

not as yet paid their second and third Install
ments but that the cause assigned for such reiu-
sal agrees with the facts in the case, the company
must bc permitted to deny. 1t was the Intention
when the enterprise was first undertaken, to have
everything in readiness to commence work early
in the spring. 1t was also the intention to put
the upper end under contract at the earliest
practicable moment, for the reason that it was
believed that the work could be better done and
cheaper before the ground became hard aud dry,
but no such Intention was expressed, nor were
any promises made for the purpose of inducing
subscriptions.
In order to carry out these intentions, the
Board of Directors employed the services Of an
engineer with Instructions to locate the grade
and prepare plans and specifications for the
building of the road far as the Bald Hills, and
then proceed to North Fork, and locate from that
point to the crossing of the main Trinity, near
Big Flat. The engineer did not commence work
nutl the I'd day Of May last and IL was near tho
last of June before the plans and specifications
of the North Fork division Of the road were re-
ceved by the Directors The season being then
SO far advanced, aud the prevailing opinion being
ring the late summer months would be SO much
more difficult Us TO render 1t probable that a ma
teria difference would be made in The bids the
Direc tors deemed il for the best interests OF tho
company to delay for . time the call for propo
sails. aIG h
The same article concludes with the following;
"We understand that bids have been made 10
build it for $1,000 a mile very little less than
twice that amount will do it properly" For the
benefit of your informant permit me to say, that
if bids of any character or description for the
building of that division of the road have been
made by any person, such have never come to
the knowledge of the company or its Directors.
Every enterprise of the magnitude and impor-'
tance of that upon which your article comments
depends and requires not only tho material aid
upon which IL is based, but the good will and n-
fuence in its behalf of the community to be ben
eGtted by it, in order to ensure complete success,
and as those aids are yielded or withheld, in like
proportion will its progress be marked

RAIL DEPoT, Oct. /, 1860.
FRIEND GoRpoN My friends are wondering
why do not chronicle some of the doings of the
Douglas club of this place. My reasons for not
doing so are, firstly, fellow might get his scull
cracked, Otis dangerous. you bet and second
ly, should the worst come to the worst, and
events transpire making it incumbent upon every
true aud Union,loving citizen to take up arms
in defense of this glorious Republic, ask moth
ing better than to be file-closer in the ranks of
the Douglas City club each and every one is a
host within himself. Consequently, il is plain to
see the necessity of keeping on friendly terms
with them.
Douglas City has the name abroad from what
| hear of being one tevil' of place, and Is
the means of bringing guns of large calbre from
all over the State aud do hope it will not lose
its consequence until after the election, for 1t Is
quite treat to hear all sides of the political
questions of the day discussed by able speakers
such as we have had lately.
Douglas City has been boiling over for a month
or more to have free discussion, for all sides,
and last Friday evening they were gratiied. The
ball was opened by Y. Montgomery, of sutter
county, followed by Judge Pitzer, in an able
speech of an hour or more, Mr.. Montgomery clo-
sing. Ryan, Gallagher and Gocwey spoke after
ward. Notwithstanding we have only three or
four acknowledged Breckenridge Democrats In
this precinct, Mr.. Montgomery was loudly cheer
ed from the commencement to the close OF his
speech. Consequently outsiders must have assis-
ted. No doubt there were many present VINO
had q wife and bear in the fight, and didn
care d--u which whipped. As for myself, whei
the old man said HI was filed to overfowini
with Douglas democrats couldn't help it,
had to cheer with all my might not that
wished my Douglas friends any i'll luck by any
means, but was simply reJolced to learn tina
! the old Institution was full, from such high oil
authority Now il this be the fact, and they ca
! carry out their doctrine of popular sovereignt
and head off old Buck and the devil too, II won
be such a duced bad place after all. And If eve
the birthstone country should be invaded. an,
the Douglas City club are there, may the Lore
have mercy on the invaders.
Ii has been said by an eminent jurist that the
Almig ghty foreknew everything but the Verdlc
of q petit jury. He might now add" and tht
vote of Douglas City precinct for Assemblyman
That this or that man will carry this precinct
do not think any of the initiated would FISK the
assertion, aud the curtains are not transparent
enough for an outsider to itemize.

Wandered down TO the rivers side,
And watched the waving shadows fly,
Like gliding barks Ger its level tide.
And many merry song was sung,
And many joyous tale we told,
Till the air with our litful laughter rung,
And echo replied from the forest old.
Memory tells me that they were fair
Madge with her clustering nut-brown curis,
Aud Nellie and Kate with their sunny hair,
And lips like rosebuds aud teeth like pearls.
Rocking to rest in their sweet content,
The birds their heaven taught vespers sung,
And over our heads, like gorgeous tent,
The crimsons curtains of sunset hung.
The lilies lifted their queenly heads,
And swayed with the current to and no;
And the wild flowers leaned DER their grassy beds,
And gazed at themselves in the waves below.
Now, as then, on the level tide,
The crimson stains of the sunset lie;
But we roam no more by the river side,

THE VALUE OF AoCURAcY.-lt is the result OF
every days experiance, that steady attention to
matters of detail lies at the root of human
progress !, and that diligence above all, is the
mother Of good luck. Accuracy is also OF much
Importance, and an invariable mark of good
training in man. Accuracy In observation,
of affairs. What IL done in business must be
well done for it is better to accomplish perfect
ly a small amount of work, than to half do ton
times as much. A wise man used to say, "Stay
q little, that we may make an end the sooner"
Too little attention, however. IL paid to this
highly important quality of accuracy. AS a man
eminent in praetcle seieace iataly observed to u.s.
at is astoshing how few people have met in
the course Of my experience who can define Q
fact accurately" Yet, in business affairs, 1t Is
the manner in which even small matters are
transacted, that often decide men for or against
you. With virtue, capacity, aud good conduct
ia other respects, the person who Is habltualiy
inaccurate cannot be trusted his work has to be
gone over again aud he thus causes endless
annoyance, vexation and trouble, M
