saloon in this city evening in the early part of
the week. which, says our informant, had to be
seen to be fully relished an outlnsof the scene,
however may pass for an titem," A party Of
Dutch, English and Irish were hob-nobbing at the
bar with great unanimity finally bursting forth
in songs pertaining to American Independence in
'76. The choir opened with the Star Spangled
Banner then inhaled some more patriotism, and
proceeded to Hail Columbia, when Frenchman,
who had been chambering few glasses OF the
Mars-ales all to himself felt as If he'd like to
" arise to glory" and concluded to pitch into
an Englishman or in state paper phrase, France
would make war on England, rather than let Eng

accept war rather than allow Hail Columbia pass

Perry THIEyING.-There has been considerable
thieving, or small scale, going on during the
week in this town and vicinity. Dwight 4 Weav
er's cabin, in the upper part of town, was broken
open and robbed of provisions in the early part of
Tuesday evening last. We have learned of the
robbing of two other cabins about the same time
one of sack Of -four that had only been brought
from the market about half an hour before. The
story of 8" stealing sheep off a mans back was
not badly illustrated, one day this week, in the
C Use of man and load of lumber. Our hero had
brought wagon load of sluice lumber from one
the mills, and dumped it off as near his claim as
the. state of the roads would permit, and returned
tor another load When he came back, he was
astonished to find the first load gone from where
he left it, and no traces of it to be seen unless
what could be inferred from his remark would be
some clue to it. He said Afterwards" When
came back could see men going in several differ
ent directions, not great way off, with lumber
on their backs-but h! have no idea it could
be mine p Saw dust pies were an article of food
for the benefit of uncheaters in this city, on the
First Day of this month, at which many were fools
enough to bite; but, has that kind OF BOARD be-
come so popular since AllFools-Day or the rise of
flour that honest miners carry off lumber by the
cart load? No accounting for tastes, however.

Mining here is progressing rather slowly,
but surely. Claims are being opened every
day, and they all pay remuneratively.
There is very little excitement about this
gulch; yet, think, next year, if not sooner,
this will be one of the best, if not the best,
mining camp in the Territory. To tell your
readers about the amount of the runs, the
largeness of the prospects, or the size Of
the nuggets would be useless, as miners
seldom put much confidence in such asser.
tions. They want to see what it will turn
out in the sluice. Let them come here and
give our gulch fair examination, and
venture to assert that they will be well sat-
isfed for their trouble. gr Hs.1stz
German gulch is proving to be rich.
Some claims there are turning out from

Oh! why should the Spirit of Nor
tai be Proud .-sl.s -.


THE following Poem was a great favorite with
the late President Lincon and he often reclted It.
The author is said to be Mr.. Knox, of Scotland,
who has also published other Poems.
Oh. why should the spirit of mortal be proud?
Like a swltt-heeting meteor-a fast flying cloud
a fash Of the lightning-a break of the wave
He passethfrom life to his rest in the grave.
The leaves of the oak and the willow shall fade,
Be scattered around, and together be laid,
As the young and the old, the low and the high,
Shall erum5le to dust, and together shall lie. ..
The infant mother attended and loved
The motser, that infants affection who proved:
The father, that mother and infant who blest:
Each, all, are away to that dwelling of rest. "|
The maid on whose brow, On whose cheek, in whose
eye, .-.-. I'D
Shone beauty and pleasure-her triumphs are by,
And alike from the minds of the living erased,
Are the mem 'ries of mortals who loved her and
tg praised. .. .g .H-1 -.-. Ils. s. DID,.
The head of the king, that the scepter hath borne
The brow Of the priest, that the mitre hath worn,
The eye of the sage, and the heart Of the brave,
Are hidden and lost in the depths of the grave.
The peasant, whose lot was to sow and to reap:
The herdsnan, who climbed with his goats up the
steep +. .'H. s..'
The beggar, who wandered in search of his bread,
Have faded away like the grass that we tread. %
So the multitude goes, like the flower or weed,
That withers away to let Others succeed;
So the multitude comes, even those we behold,
To repeat every tale that has often been told.
For we are the same our fathers have beenj
We see the same sights our fathers have seen;
We drink the same stream we see the same sun,
And run the same course our fathers have run.
The thoughts we are thinking our fathers did think
From the death we are shrinking our fathers did
shrink
To the lifewe are clinging our fathers did cling,
But it speeds from all like the bird the wing.
They lovCd-but the story we cannot unfold;
They scorned-but the heart of the naughty is cold;
They grievsd-but no wall from their slumbers will
come; .. .-.-
They joyed-but the tongue of their gladness is
dumb. .I
They ded-ah they died-we, things that are now,
That walk on the turf that lies over their brow,
And make IN their dwelling a transient abode,
Meet the things that they met on their pilgrimage
