BLooDTHIRsTY PEOPLE" This extra is a
regular humbug' This Pony brings no
news" No fighting yet y and such like
expressions are to be heard from many people
on reading the extras we have lately issued on
the arrival of the Pony. 1t would seem as if
nothing short Of the record Of q half dozen
battles, or at least the sackng and burning of
one or more Southern cities, could satisfy the
craving for blood of these patriots. One indi-
vidual who, if he were thrust in the ranks,
would probably shoot his gun at the first dis
charge, in such way as to make it more dis
agreeable to the olfactories of his neighbors
than dangerous to the enemy, went SO far, in
the expression of his disappointment, as TO
compromise the Transcript in his curses fer
issuing an extra which did not contain the re-
cord Of any battle. People who are so fond of
hearing of other folks fighting, are seldom fond
of doing much Of it themselves and if we had
the power of compulsion, we are confident that
no greater punishment could be inflicted on
this class of yelpers than to force them in the
front rauk of the first battle The news of
blood she'd viii reach us soon enough, God

TRUE WIsDoM.-Every man who has be-
come old, can look back on his life, see its er-
rors and think of what he would do if he had
to live it over again. This experience, which
might be of much value to the young, is of lit
tie use to the aged, but it should not lie lost
1t was the evident intention of nature, that the
experience of age should be the instruction Of
youth True wisdom consists in profting by
the errors and failures Of others as well as Of

We are in receipt of the Daily Rocky

of the Rocky Mountains, are as near tba East
as we were one year ago. Before the close Of

be in telegraphic communication with all the
