Billy Mulligan.

The above bruiser," noted in the trough"
annals of San Francisco, and lately incar-
ccrated in Sing Sing prison, New York, for
cutting some extensive rusties in the city of
Gotham, is thus described in his present state
of freedom, by "Ching Foo,' the sprighty
New York correspondent Of the Sacramento
Union:
Our dear Mulligan, toe, he who is profane
ly called Billy, has again contributed to the
refreshing livelness Of cur city life. The
loss of his hair, whskers and mustache at
Sing Sing have not cooled his head, iessed
his "cheek," or taken the stiffness out of his
upper lip. Accordingly, Billy travels his
usual round, and like the member OF the
porcine family which was once upon a time
astonished into cleanliness with brown soap
aud brook water, returns instinctively to his
wallowing in the moral mire of the metropo
lis. Thus, last Saturday Billy staggered
into "Florence's," and took general swell.
Detective Hogan happening to be there, in
CURED affectionaey after Bilys health and
hoped he had been treated well at Sing Sing.
This was touching slightly on the raw, and
Billy began to rave, swearing that the
officers at Sing Sing were pack of dash,
be dashed, ty dash thieves and scoundrels
etc, and that if Hogan didn't like it, it
would afford him, Billy, a select entertain
ment to knock his two eyes into one, eat
his heart out, and make pate de toie gras out
Of his liver. One Campbell pat ia on lIo-
gan's side, wfereoPon Billy peeled and sail
ed in in q preliminary way for a free fight.
Hogan, seeing that the Mulligau steam was
up to 1870 poVnds pressure, blew his whistle
and two perlice or so fell down the steps of
the saloon and !igked or the splurgiteroUs
William. The scene tina. followed was
eisarWaiag. The heast OF the phlanthropist
aaight wed best witA gentle satisfaction over
it. William WAS conducted to seat and
naiidly offered his choice between being
pounded on the head with nunber OF
-!oousts'' or promising to behave himself
He accepted the alternative OF "d4portment"
they all "sialed," and am pleased to
stste that Wiliam is around, aud literally
Oh, hand for aay &nount OF rutfanisna neces
ssry TO the health of a moral and peaceable
community.

Eight More as Twelve.

Dutrhman living in a town ia Peunsyl-
vania, leased his lands to Az oil company,
Ca condition of receiving one eighth of the
oil procured. The well proved to I've pretty
good one, and the farmer began to think
that the oil men should give him better
ch; nee, and he rentured ~ tell tkeHa So.
They asked him Whist he wanted. lie said
they onght to give Aia one t~elhh. The
agreement WAS finally ana,le, ~itl. the undes-
standsng that the Dutc!i,san was to tell no
one. All ~eat on s.noou, until the uext
division day came, wkea oas friead WAS early
on hand, TO see how snucla better he would
he off uudev his new bafgsin. Elerea bar
rels were rolled aside for the oil snen, and
one for hitn This did not suit him- -How's
dish,' says be; a snl was to get more ss
before; 10y jinks you make mistake.o The
matter was explained to him that ste tor
.nery got one barrel of every eight, but it
was his own proposition TO only take one OF
every twelve This revelation took him
aback. He scratched his head, looked cross
and relieved bis swelling breast Of feelings
of self remoach by Indignantly remaaking:
"Veli. by ,liinder, &lsi ish de first time as
ever know'd eight was more as twelve"

The Right Sort of Religion.

We want religion that goes into the
family, and keeps the husband from being
spiteful when the dinner is late, keeps the wife
from frctting when the husband tracks the
newly washed floor with his muddy boots
and makes the husband mindful of the srra
per and door mat--keeps the mother patient
when the baby is cross, and keeps the baby
pleasant-amuses the children as well as in.
s,ructs lhem-wins as well as governs pro
iects the honeymoon into The harvestmoon,
and makes t happy hours like the Eastern
fig tree; bearing in its blossoms at once the
beauty Of the tender blossom and the glory
of the ripened fruit. We want religion
that bears not only on the 'sinfuluess of sin, "
but on the rascaIty Of lying and stealing
a religion that banishes small measures from
the counters, small baskets from the stalls,
pebbles from the cotton bags, clay from
paper, sand from sugar, chicory from coffee,
beet juice from vinegar alum from bread,
lard from butter, strychnine from wine, and
water from milk cans.
The religion that is to advance the world
"ili not put all the big Strawberries and
peaches at the top, and all the bad ones at
tie bottom. 1t will not offer more baskets
OF foreign wines than the vineyards ever
1ered bottles-and more barrels of Genesee
-four than all the wheat fields Of New York
grow and all her mills grind. 1t will not
make one-half of pair of shoes of good
leather, and the other of poor leather, so
that the first shall dound to the makers
credit and the second to his cash. 1t will
rot let a piece of velvet that Processes to
measure twelve yards come to an untlmey
end in the lerth-nor a spool of sewing silk
that vouches for twenty yards, be npped in
the bud at fourteen and a half, nor the cot
ton-thread spool break to the yardstick fifty
of The two hundred yards of promise that
was given to the eye-nor all wool delaines
and all l.linen handkerchiefs be maIgamated
with clandestine cotton-nor coats made of
old woolen rags pressed together, be sold to
the unsuspecting public for lroadcloth. 1t
does not put bricks worth only five dollars
per thousand, into ,himneys it contracted to
build Of seven dollar materiaIs--nor s,nuggle
wIU,e pine into floors that have be paid
tor as haid pine--nor daub ceilings that
ought to be smoothly p'astered--nor make
window blinds with Stats that cannot stand
the winds-and paint that cannot stand the
sun--and fastenings that may be looked at,
hut are on 40 account to be touched.
The religion that is to satisfy the world
paws its debts. 1t does not consider thet
forty cents returned for one hundred cents
gi,en, is according to Gospel, though it may
he according to law. It looks on man who
has failed in trade, and who continues to
live in Luxury, as thief IL looks upon a
alau ~ho promises te pay fifty dollars On
.I4tuanA with ntesest, and who neg!ects to
pay it on demand, with or without interest,
as a liar.

Letter from Governor Downey.

In reply to an invitation from the Com
rni:tee of Arrangements for the Union meet
ing held i'll San Francisco, on the 18th inst.
Governor Downey replied as follows:
STATE OF CALIFORNIA, EXECUTIVE DEPT,
SACRAMENTO, May 10th, 1861.
A. S. GOULD, Esq, Secretary Committee
of arrangements, San Francisco-Dear Sir:
Your note of the Sth inst, informing me o
the resolutions passed by the Committee OF
Arrangements for the Union demonstration
at San Francisco on to morrow, inviting me
to be present, is received. regret tha,
official duties accumuating upon me, conse
qnent upon the closing of the session of the
Legislature, will prevent my attendance.
You will express to the Committee my ap-
probation of their kindness; aud assure them
of my hearty co operation in every move
menl that has for its object the perpetuatlon
of the Union. the Constitution, and the Gov
crnment under which we live; and of my
determination to discharge all my consttu-
tional obligations to the State and to the
Federal Government; and that shall use all
constitutional means to preserve intact the
happy relations that now exist between the
Union and State-to preserve peace, to sup
press violence, come from what source 1t
may, aud band over my charge unsu'lled
and untarnished to my successor.
In my Annual Message to the Legislature,
deliver d in January last, before the unhap
py difficulties that now agitate the country
had assumed their present magnitude, made
use of the following language "The people
of California desire no change in our form,
of Government; they desire no dismember
ment that would weaken us as a powerful
people. Our vast seaboard, unprotected, re
quires the fostering care of a powerful mari
time nation, such as the American Union
has become. They desire to remain in the
Union, and grow with its growth and siren
ethen with its strengths; and while anything
exists worthy Of being called an American
Union, mistake much if the people of Cali
tornia will not cling to it with Il patriotic
devotion worthy Of men who can appreciate
the blessing of self government"
i have had no reason to change in sentl-
ment since | made use of these expressions,
All think have given evidence Of consisten
cv in my public acts. Il believed then, as |
40 hoW, t'tt l"e ohiy ile"HS VI l''eoei''" :
the American Union was honorable compro
mise and respect for the constitutional rights
Of every section. believe in the Govern
ment using all its constitutional powers TO
preserve itself and resist aggression. did
not then believe, nor do now, that an ag-
gressive war should be waged upon any see
tion of the confederacy, nor do believe that
this Union can be preserved by coercion
policy. /The future will revea! the soundess
of this position.
desire that the whole people of the State
should know my position on this subject, as
have nothing to conceal, nor should de-
ceve the humblest citizen in this State in
this respect.
am very truly, your friend,
JOHN G.. DOWNEY.

When I Mean To Marry.
BY JOHN G. SAKE.


When do mean to marry;--Well--
IT'S idle to dispute with fate;
But if you choose to hear me tell.
Pray listen, while fix the date:--
When daughters haste, with eager feet,
A mothers daily toll to share;
Can make the pudding which they eat,
And mend the stockings which they wear
When maidcns look upon man
AS in himself what they would marry,
And not as army soldiers scan
A sutler or commissary.
When gentle ladies who have got
The offer Of lovers hand
Content to share his earthly lot,"
And do not mean his lot of land
When young mechanics are allowed
To find and wed the farmers girls
Who don't expect to be endowed
With rubies, diamonds and pearls.
When wives, in short, shall freely give
Their hearts and hands to aid their spouses
And live as they were wont to live
Within their sires' one-story houses.
Then. madam-if Pm not too old
Rejoiced to quit this lonely life,
I'll brush my beaver, cease to scold,
And look about me for a wife.

BEhs.-An experience Of one year in bee
keeping has convinced us that no other coun-
try in he world can excel California for the
propagation of the honey bee. Last year
on the Goth of May, we had living pint
aud half of bees. During two mouths
following it was mooted question whether
they would live or die. We were advised
to throw the hives bees and ALL out of our
garden into the road and save our time and
patience. TO day we have fourteen as good
colonies as need be, and might have had
twenty five instead had we succeeded in
obtaining hives. We have been obliged for
want OF houses for the rsects to destroy
queen cells to keep them from swarmiog.-
From one large colony we have had five
new ones this year, the first swarm having
given off new one fifteen days after it was
hiped. With but ordinary luck we can
easily increase the number Of oar colonies
by the first of June to thirty. We give
these facts for the benefit Of the public
WeOada Journai.

in Wisconsin, wheat is offered at so cents
