MAY PARrY.-The Scholars of Mr.. UPHAN $
School held May Festival on Thursday last, in a
beautiful and shady grove, a short distance below
town. The day was a very pleasant one, and the
little ones, accompanied by their relatives and
friends were out in all their joyousness, hope and
beauty. The exercises commenced by the corona
tion of a May Queen. The young lady on whose fair
brow was placed the floral dadem, was Miss KATE
kRETsINGER, and the honor could not have been
more worthily bestowed both as it respects moral
and physical qualities. She looked the Queen sur
rounded by her maids of honor, all tastefully aud
becomingly arrayed.
After the termination of the coronation scene,
music, eocution, dialogues, &C., followed-all exc
cuted in a manner evincng proficiency and excel
lence, and giving promise of future usefulness on
the part Of the youthful performers.
An intermission having been proclaimed. various
parties were soon seated in picturesque groups un-
der the grateful shade of the broadspreading oaks
diligently discussing the many good things, in the
commissariat line, that had been provided tor the
occasion. Their appetites having been appeased,
socality seemed the next thing in order. Songs,
sentimental, patriotic and humorous, occupied the
time until the dispersion of the company seeming
ly well pleased, to their respective homes.
We append the closing part of the Address, spo-
ken by Miss MANY ELLEN TAYLOR, on presenting
the Queen for Coronation:
Subjects Behold your beauteous Queen
OF May and the smiling Flowers!
With eyes so bright, their magic sheen
Seems ray from Eden s bowers.
On shady bank begemmed with dew,
When their glance is benignly thrown,
Forth springs the modest volet's hue,
Serenely azure as their own.

Why does its head the Moss Rose bow
Shall the floral secret speak
Because it bushes to avow
Its tint was stolen from her cheek.
The Rosebud, with its beauties hidden,
From which the bulbul nectar sips,
And revels on its charms forbidden,
Is but an emblem of her lips.
The Lily, which in lowly vale,
Or lakelet waters loves to grow,
Could in a contest nsught avail
With her pure bosom's driven snow.

Away. Companions, away. away
Over hin and dale your search pursue,
And gather of Flowers for use to-day

And our hearts with pride will swell elate,

The route from Oroville to susanville contains a
population of fve hundred bu sy men, miners, pitch
manufactures, farmers and lumberman, for every
single individual that can be found on the Chico
route after leaving the Sacramento valley. Thro'
this busy and teeming and thriving population on
the best and most direct route from railroad COM
munication to Susanvilie, the bid by responsible
parties, for performing semiweekly service, was
81 500; but through the Misrepresentation and sell
fish scheming of Bidwel whom the people honored
and trusted with their confidence, the authorities
are induced to pay $40 900 annually for the same
service an unnhabi:ed and uninhabitable
route The terminus Of the route, instead of being
fixed at railroad communication, as It should be,
and the Post Office there made a Distributing Of
fee, is established at an interior village, with but
single mail line passing through If from Orovie
Portland. For all practical purposes, General
BidwelI might as well have liked the terminus at
Hogs Back, the second Station from Chice as that
would have have turned the travel past his
Ranch equally as well. A less narrow minded and
contemplate prejudice than that entertained by
Bidwel would have been coeteat with transferring
the mail to the Chico route. still leaving it
ted with railroad communication at Orovilie. But
that would not satify his selfish purposes. He
must vent his unmanly vengeance on weak and de-
feneeiess Oroville that had dug him from the mer-
tied obscurty and contempt in which he was held
by his own immediate neighbors, and honored and
trusted him. His friends of this vicinity. who were

weeks ago. the Ministers assured the Assembly
that SO. 600 would be ample Some Of the mem
bers said it had better be put large enough, and
urged inserting s, 600 or even $4,000, if re-
quired. Ministers replied that they could not
possibly spend that amount. and Yet on Wednes-
day they cam and asked that the sum be in
creased TO more than double the original amount.
Mr.. Ukeke, who follows up the Ministers with
a sharp stick, got up and told the story 10 the
Assembly as above, and then pointing the finger
of scorn TO the Minister of Finance said q" How
can We expect competency in Il Minister who
makes such plumbers? If he cannot reckon
more accurately when the estimate il only for
thousands, what may we not look for when hun
dreds of thousands are involved ?" 1t was one
the severest rebukes the Minister has received
during the session, and certainly would justify
the passage of a vote of censure, or want of con-
ftence.

Mr.. Washburne, Of Georgia, made re-
port from the Committee on Credentials, that

the qualifications OF its members. The report
of the Committee on Permanent OrRaniza>
ton was received.
Mr.. James Speed, of Kentucky, was an
nounced as permanent President, and was
received with loud applause. Mr.. Speed, on
accepting the chair, accepted the honor in .
brief speech. He said we Southern men
who have seen the sin of slavery, know hiss
torically and experimentally that it must
perish from the face of the earth. While ne
wish peace, we Wish peace permanent and
sure, established on the principle Of equal
rights and equal security to all men within
the Jurisdiction Of the United States. Great
applause He compared the Convention At
Washington of the 4th Of July, and the pres
ent Convention, both resulting from the strong
feeling which Wa growing in the South for
universal liberty one was to crush this pEin-
ciple, the other to sdstain It. The Conven>
