From WASHINGToN. - Letters from
Washington state that T. d. Judah, of
California, is there, to push his PROPOSE
ton for Congressional aid for the con-
Strucli0n Of railroad from Sacramento
to Carson City-the first and most West
erly division of the contemplated Pacific
Railroad. Judah is interested in the
Auburn railroad and has always been op-
posed to the Placerville route, simply be-
cause he was not employed to survey it;
and he will bend all his energies and re-
sort to misrepresentation to create a
prejudice against our route. If Congress
accepts his proposition it may be fatal to
the prosperity of Placervile. Let those
of our citizens most deeply interested
take the matter in hand and write to Sen
ator McDougall, who has expressed him.
self favorable to the Placerville route
Sargent our member of Congress from
the Northern District-his interests being
in Nevada-it is understood favors Ju-
dah'S proposition.

LIFE.-Life is no speculative venture
with those who feel its value and duties.
1t has deeper purpose, and its path be-
comes distinct and easy in proportion as
it is earnestly and faithfully pursued. The
rudest or the most refined pursuit, if
adapted to the wants and capacities of
the pursuer, has truth, a beauty, and a
satisfaction. All ships on the ocean are
not steamers or packets, hut all freight
bearers, fitted to their task, and the sm"lI-
est Shallop nobly fultils its mission while
it pushes on toward its destined port, nor
shifts its course because larger crafts ca
reer to other points of the compass. Let
man right himself on the ocean Of time.
Let him learn whether he is by nature a
shallop or ship-a coaster or an ocean
crosser; and then, freighting himself &C.
cording to his capacity and the market he
should seek, fling his sails to the breeze,
riding on wind and tide, if they 60 on his
course, but beating resOlutely against
them il they cross his path. Have well
chosen and defined purpose, pursue it
faithfully, and all will be well.
