Dear lady,-Ia little fear
'Tis dangerous to be writing here
His hand, who bade our eagle Ay,-
Trust his young wings and mount the sky
Who babe across the Atlantic wide
Loud cannons roar--rew navies ride
Has traced lines of trembling aye
His autograph upon this page,
Higher than that eagle scars,
Louder than the cannon roars,
His name shall through the earth be sounding,
And DER the wave of time be bouudingl
While thousands as obscure as l.
Cling to his skirts, he still shall fly
And spring to Immortality
If by his name write my own,
He'll take me where | am not known
The cold salute will meet my ear
"Pray, stranger How did you come here ?"

pondent OF the Dutch Flat Inquirer, writing
from san Francisco says:
The difference, however, between life in
city and in our mountains is marked with "A
moral distinction, such, however, as will he

city is artificial to the last degree. Wealth
corrupts the heart, and the whirl of business

themselves, and are never able to get out of
the beaten way. or release themselves from

SUIcIDE-On Sunday night last. says the
Oroville Record, the body of a Chinawoman
was found lodged against some bushes in the
river a short distance below the Huntoon st.
ferry. Coroner Cotton being informed of the
fact, proceeded to the spot bnt on account
of the lateness of the hour, he secured the
body with ropes and allowed it to remain
where found until Monday morning, when he
summoned a jury and held an inquest, which
revealed facts sufficiently strong to induce
the jury to render verdict of suicide by
drowning. From the facts developed during
5he examination by the jury, it appears that
deceased was young woman of chaste char
acter, about fifteen years of age, named ALI
Mon, who had been living and performing
labor in the culinary department Of house
of disreputabe character in the upper end of
Chinatown. The Old woman who kept the
house and owned or had control Of the de-
ceased, had been trying TO force her to marry
Chinaman and report says, had whipped
her for refusing. She was missed on Satur-
day night, and on Sunday morning her shoes
were found on the bank Of the river, near the
tcrry-hoat, where she had evidently placed
them before taking the fntl plunge.

from sending in his Cabinet nominations inn

Southern Rcvoiutionfsts.
1t is expected that Mr.. Buchanan will submit
a special message TO Congress to-day, setting
forth the difficulties OF his position in reference
to the execution Of the laws Of the United
States in South Carolina, now claiming the So
vereign powers Of an independent nation aud
that he will also refer to the recent revolution
airy proceedings in other Southern States, and
call upon the two houses for such legislation
in the premises as may be best calculated TO
prevent war and TO re-establish the Union
The President is bound by his official oath to
"take care that the laws be faithfully exc.
cuted;" and these laws comprehend the pro-
lection Of the property Of the United States
and the collection Of the federal revenues in
all places designated for this purpose by Con-
gress. This public property thus placed under
his supervision, includes the federal fortifca-
lions OF Charleston harbor: and this duty of
collecting the federal revenues covers the sea-
ports of South Carolina. In his annual
Message TO Congress, however, Mr. Buchanan,
anticipating the secession OF said State, pre-
sented to the two houses the embarrassments
which would follow this proceeding in the exc
eution OF the federal laws, and called for adj
vice and assistance, in view Of the difficulties
which have since come to pass

Circulation OF the Herald-The Post Once
Advertising.
In accordance with the established custom
of advertising the letters uncalled for in the
Post Office which the law prescribes shall be
done in the paper having the largest cir
culatiOn in the city-we responded to the call
of the Postmaster, as usual, for the I'M
profitable privilege OF crowding our columns
with matter which Of course does not
pay, but which we have published for some
years because it is a portion Of news interest
ing to many Of our readers.
This year we had but one competitor, none
of the other papers having circulation which
would warrant them in applying for the Post
Office advertising. According to the sworn
statements of the two papers, the HERALD
showed daily circulation larger by twenty
thousand than its competitor, and larger by ten
thousand within the prescribed limits is,
below Fifty-fourth street-so that the Post
master had no difficulty in deciding between
us and the Sun, the only penny paper pub
lished in the city. The letters will therefore
be advertised, in the HERALD as heretofore.
To show the extent of our circulation, we
append the following table for tho month of
