The SOUTHERN FIELD AND FIREsIDE.-Wc take
pleasure IN publishing and calling attention to the
Gard in our paper today, Of Col. James Gardner,
Editor of this new Southern family paper. The
Southern Field and Freside is all and more than its
Editor claims for it. Southcrners let sustain our
own newspapers. Every dollar sent to a Southern
and withheld from Northern Editor, is so much
gained for the South. We do not include in this
remark those political papers in the non-slavehold
ing States which true to our Constitutional rights
Let US sustain them also, for they have much to
contend with simply because they are just towards
us. Let us stand by our friends and withdraw our
patronage from our enemies.

Murfreesho1nnrh Citizen.

We are pleased to learn that this sterling Demo
cratic paper the publication of which has been sus-
pended for several weeks will make its appearance
soon on firm basis We wish Col. Foster the
most abundant success, and trust that he will be re-
muneratively fostered by the Democracy of the Al
bcmarle country.
We notice that that unhappy individual Parson
Brownlow has brought some false charges against
Col Foster. Nothing which Brownlow can say will
lnJure Col. F. where he is known. On the contra
ry, it is an honor to any Democrat to be maligned
and abused by Brownlow. Col Foster has the con-
fidence and respect of the people of his District
and it is not in thep power q Brownows, whether in
tennessee or in the First District to deprive him of
that respect and confidence He may well afford to
laugh at the malice and Vaccinations of his enc
miles, They can neither injure nor intimidatc him.

Moveable Personal Property,

pend Section nine of the Revenue Law:
Sec o. The Tax Collector is hereby author
lied and required (unless otherwise directed by
the board of Supervisors in the respective coun-
ties) either in person or by deputy, to accompa-
ny the assessor through the county, and upon

SHASTA COURIER.
Our Town.

Shasta is beginning to show evidence of a
revival of business The periodical 'dull season.
is rapidly drawing to close, and in short
time the complaints of dull times will cease for
we trust a long and prosperous season. We
observe that our merchants and traders are
daily receiving large additions to their stocks.
Traders from above may therefore send on their
orders in full confidence that they will be filed
at rates exceedingly low.
I'VE doubt whether any mountain town in
the State can boast of greater number of beau
tiful cottage homes and gardens than Shasta.
At present they are looking unusually beautiful.
The surrounding hills, too, are being rapidly
clad in their spring time mantle of green, and
soon will be decked with countless flowers All
. what grand land for young lovers to dwellin
What glorious fields for the rambling of people
smitten with the Heayen-born plague of love-
All oh
......As yet there has been but one building
erected upon the burnt district-the Livery
Stable of VIM Thompson. Preparations for
other buildings, however, are rapidly going for
ward.
I'VE have been favored by very heavy rains
during the week, and the indications that Hea-
ven's lood-gates remain unclosed continue ia
yorable.
..... Dog fanciers should remember that, by a
recent law, it has has been made a crime to steal
dogs. We put in this preference to an allusiop'
for the benefit ofa friend who recently had stolen
beautiful little tarrer pnppy.
And now, having been rather discursive in
our remarks-ranging from business through
beautiful cottages and lovely gardens, over
green fower-clad hills with sentimental lovers,
the while noting the state of the weather,
through horse-stabes aud down to tarrier pup
pies-thus having successfully passed from the
sublime to the ridiculous-we think we may
safely venture to stop, with the consent of all
parties concerned.

The almost miraculous cure that has been eI-

short description OF my case. Several years ago
my health began TO tail. | was attacked by gen

SECOND CHMDHooD.-Let all men pray daily
that they may not be permitted to live to reach
second childhood We would die in the very
hey-day of life, with unimpaired intellect, rather
than live on until age has weakened the limbs,
softened the brain, dimmed the sight, broken the
voice, and covered one as with blanket of SEN
ility. Second-childhood, what is it but idio-
cy? These thoughts suggest themselves to
us after reading the privilege question speech OF
a weak-minded, loquacous old member of the
Legislature from Ell Dorado. And the very bril-
liant young members who encouraged the bab-
Bling old gentleman in his rambling, NONSENSE
cal garrulity, made bigger fools of themselves in
the eyes of all sensible people, than has old
Time seemingly made of the prating old man
from FL Dorado.

NAIVE REMARK.-A correspondent of the
ST. Louis Republican, writing from Washington,
speaking of the WashOe silver mines, says:
I" 1t is said that yield of three hundred dol
lars to the ton of ore we'll pay will for working
the mines"
Wen, considering the fact that $40 per ton
pays tolerahly well for working gold mines, we
should naturally coaclude that three hundred
dollars per ton would come mighty near paying
for working silver mines.

at him pherociously; whereupon he went on hi:
way, in deep thought, and finally reaching hi;

question:
why should a woman resent our thinking
it worth our while to gaze intently at what she
thinks it worth her while to exhibit?
B2y- The bill of Mr.. Ryan-which provided
for calling in all of the outstanding war bonds
which are now almost worthless to the holders
and issuing in their stead new bonds with cou.
pons attached, was defeated in the Assembly
1t was eminently a just bill, we think, although
we certainly feel no disposition to censure those
who defeated it. The question was one thai
men might well differ on.
