A. AND B.-The Harpers have quarrel
ed with J. 8. C. Abbott, on account Of
inaccuracies in his Heroes" stories /;
consequently no more of J. S. c. A. in
Harpa's. Vide November number, for
omission or stop IN the Hero" tales.
Now, Abbott may be- a needless or grossly
inaccurate writer ; but what can his faults
be in this respect beside those Of Ross
Browne-a retained ~favori,e Of the Quaker
publishing Arm. Browne has been and is
lying like the devil about things here
abouts.

SEEKING THE PLAcRRs.-The Auburn
Placer Herald says that the heavy rains
have caused the Chinese, working upon
the Pacific Railroad, to take something
like a stampede to engage in mining for
the Winter, in the surface diggings in the
lower part Of the county. Several hun
dred have already left the road, and every
down train is bringing crowds Of them in
this direction. Should the wet weather
continue, the entire Chinese force will be
apt to leave the Railroad.

ess and prosperity,

A LOVELY SPoT. - The Sacramento
Union, in view of the approaching Legis-
lative gathering, demands street lights on
some, at least, Of the prominent streets. 1t
illustrates the necessity Of some light being
thrown in some Of the principal streets,
in speaking of the locality Of the quag-
mires on the one hand and the p~recipices
and piles of brickbats on the other" 1t
ventures to hope that the members of
the Legislature as we'll as our W citizens
will not be left in the coming long nights
to grope their way in worse than Egyp-
tan darkness, and in paths more dubious
and dangerous than our mountain trails"

The Richmond correspondence ofto-day
says a most unhappy state OF affairs exists
in the portions Of Henries county adjacent
to the city, which if not shortly improved
must drive the few remaining inhabit.
ants into Richmond for the security of
their persons aud property, which the
country does not now afford, Robbery
and spoilation of the most deliberate and
systematic character are daily and night
ly practiced with absolute impunity upon
tho defenceless people, who are being
rapidly stripped of the little property
they possess, and which, under the most
favorable circu instances, would have
proved inadequate to their subsistence
during the winter. Bands of armed men,
white and black, sufficiently numerous to
put out of the question the idea of sue
cessful opposition, roam about the country
carrying off the crops from cornfelds and
potato patches, stealing horses and cattle,
and robbing hen roosts. Nearly every
farm within the radius Of Eve miles Of
the city has been put under contribution
by the marauders, and many of them
stripped Of every hog and fowl. The
farmers and their families live in coutin-
ued dread Of ravase and personal violence.
They feel that their lives are completely
at the mercy Of the %marauders.
The foregoing was sent cut to the
public from Washington through the
special to the Cincinnati Gazette, dated
the 18th inst. 1t is remarkable that
Blacks should be guilty Of the ~marauding
d%epredations therein represented. Is
there not some mistake about it p Ohio

haired juvenile bovine not pen Of base
alloy cYlled gold, from Californian placer
and pointed with Golconda's priceless
gem, nor yet a pen fashioned out Of steel,
cut, split and nibbed at one fell swoop of
steam ; but pen made of quill, plucked
from the neither. wing Of an old grey
goose whose smiles at her masculine
companion have been celebrated in song
and story-whittled into comely shape by
classic Barlow, its feathcred shaft notch.
cd and trimmed as in yo olden time
With such pens nations have been con
vulsed and blottcd out, kings made to
tremble aud totter from their thrones,
pricst.crafts and superstition yield to the
force of reason, and enlightenment, like
a beam from Heaven. gid this terrestrial
sphere. Oh! had we such a pen, we'd
din it in Arnold's indellible fluid and
write mot wopdrous tales Of heroic
deeds achieved by factions daring hosts
on cory fields; not the sweet alluring
words breathed in the listening ear Of
beauty by amorous rustic swains not of
this rapid age, wherein we reck not time
by months and years, but with gigantic
strides o~'erstcp the boundaries of space
and hurl centuries of we'll developed pro.
gress into the abyss of the %past!-but of
PARMLEY, and his goods; of cotton,
plucked with weary iagcrs from the
broad savannas of the sunny south; Of
silken fabrica DER which the silkworm
sung its requiem of death in the celestial
empire beyond the sea ; Of beaver bound
Hoods that sit. like z phyrs Upon the
~tresses of virgin lovelile,s ; of Furs, rich,
rare and beautiful, from all parts Of the
habitablc globe; Of all colors Of the
very best quality Of French Merinoes ; Of
Brocade Mahars at 65 cents per yard Of
Barathcas at $500; Of an excellent Sc.
lection of Delains Of Calicoes at rs cents
per yard; of piles upon piles Of Shifting
and Dress Flannsls at from 33 to SO per
cent. cheaper than have been sold in this
market since "this cruel war" played the
deuce with the price Of everything; of
Skeletons (well,-ahem I've wouldn't
want to write about them, cither) ; Of bal.
morel Skirts, &c., arrayed in style to cap
tivate the eye and please the votary Of
fashion. But, alas the pens not ours,
