Mr.. EDIToR-I noticed in your columns
an advertisement Of Mrs. Ainsworths select
school, and would desire to draw especial Mt
tention to it, as it is a school well worthy of
patronage. 1t was commenced few months
ago with small number of pupils, but so nu-
merous were the additions that before the
term was finished she was obliged to seek
larger rooms. Mrs. A. was formerly one of
the most successful Of our public school
teachers, and since leaving them she has pur-
sued her studies in Germany, and is now en-
deavoring to adapt here system of teaching
pursued IN the celebrated schools of that
country to the wants of those under her charge.
We wish her God speed!

The Work GOES ON. Such is the title
of an article in the Trinity National, an ad-
vocate of the new tangled doctrine of the
copperhead democracy. By it we perceive
that the Democrats (?) of Shasta have put
forth an address to the democratic masses in
this county We understand the address
spoken of has been secretly circulated among
the leaders of the opposition to our Govern
ment, but we have not been able to see a
copy of it yet. From an extract of the ad-
dress, published in the National, we see that
these Democrats charge that the Admins
tration g has most foully and basely betray-
ed. and the influence and controlling power
of the Government was hypocritically yield
ed to as, miserable a creed of bigotry, traitor
Gus and sectional fanatics as ever disgraced
any country or age" Of course it has to
look through the yellow goggles worn by the
leaders of modern democracy, who cannot
endure the idea of preserving the liberties of
the people of this nation, if it is to be done
by any means but those pointed out by Val
landi CHAM and jeff Davis.
/ The National endorses the address promul-
gated by J. R. Mcconnell, J.. II. Hardy e
Co.. of Nevada Territory, and acknowledges
the fusion of the several Democratic factions
in the follow graceful language:
tits general movement of the Democracy
of Nevada Territory, irrespective of former
distinctions, whether Douglas, Buchanan,
Broderick, Gwin, or anything else.

Negro Testimony.

Much diversity of opinion seems to exist
in this State, npon the question of negroes
being permitted To testify in our courts of
justice. The principal argument used by
those who Are opposed to the measure. is that
by permitting the cclered man the privilege
of giving evidence in either civil or criminal
cases, it raises him to an equality with the
whise man who may be called as a witness.
We can't see it. Do what you will in sd-
pancing the rights uf the negro, and you can
DO more change his social position than the
color Of his skin, nor can you make him an
equal of the white man by any. form of leg
slatiou. The moie his intelligence is ad-
vanced the greater benefits will be derived
from him by the whites, because he can be
made to understand the laws which are to
govern him in society. Suppose two men are
engaged in mining, teaming, cooking, or any
other honorable employment, the one white
aud the other black, does it follow that the
white iran is disg-aced because he follows
the same occupation as the negro or does 1t
the white man because they engage in the
same employment? It is all nonsense to
say that because negro is permitted to tes-
tify in. oar Courts. he is thereby elevated to
a. position of equality with the white race
He will not be permitted to enter the society
of the white man more than formerly he
may be permitted, as now, to bring our food
to the table. and do other appropriate work,
but will moi be allowed to sit at table, or 9TH
erwise associate with the dominant race with
any more familiarity that if he was not al
lowed any civil privileges.
The law jnst passed by our Legislature
may not work well in. this State, bnt if it
does not, it can be. repealed. Twelve men
sittingas jury can Judge of the truthfulness
of a negro's testimony as well as that of a
white mans, and they can admit or exclude
the evidence Just as well. If we understand
the object of admitting negroes to testify, it
is to enable them to give evidence against the
white man who has done. them wrong
As free men, they necessarily have some
rights in the community, and should be en-
abled to enforce those rights in some form,
that evil disposed persons may be compelled
to cease their aggressions on those who new
er can obtain the social position of the ag-
gressors, however vile those aggressors may
be. A white man who is afraid that the
negro will become his equal by legislation,
shoald be diligent in his efforts to elevate
himself little higher, for it may not be
amiss to suggest that this is wonderfully
progressive age, and truth and justice are
rapidly marching on to better days.
