HoRAcE.-Some men can get up a
reputation for liberality OF the fiimsiest
Of foundations. There are individuals
in this city, who have the name of be-
ing public-spirited, charitable citizens,
and yet who were never known in their
lives to open their purse-strings eIcep-
ting when they know their generosity
would be trumpeted to the world through
the newspapers. Real philanthropists
are never selected from the ranks Of such
men. The mouth honors they may re-
ceive for their occasional public display
of m~unifceuce is their full reward. This
is the only pay they expect and the only
pay which they receive. They can lever
feel, within themselves, the benign sat
isfaction which a good act brings to the
heart Of sincere be~nefactor and as they
receive their reward on earth for such
acts as may be classed among the good,
the debt is cancelled, and Heaven owes
them nothing. We notice that Hon.
Horace Hawes is just now trying a lit
tie bit of by-play in this line. We have
before us a pamphlet, in which he rid
icules the Eight-Hour movement as a
"hobby, and deuounces it as a ''fraud
and a delusiou," and styles the argu-
ments Of all who speak or write in its
favor as "clap-trap." Hawe, brings up
no logical or new reflections to bear out
his opposition to tho establishment Of
the Eight-Hour system, but merely ad-
vises workingmen "that the less they
work, the less they will have Of the
necessaries Of life." This, Of course,
is not true, for the reduction Of two
hours would be taken from the immense
incomes Of such men as Halves, who
have become rich BY grabbing lands
that rightfully belonged to the people.

A BREAD MAcRISr.-John Darcy,
baker at the corner Of Third and Perry
STREETS, has invented q machine for ia
cilitating the kneading and moulding Of
bread, which he has in operation daily,
and which appears to be of practical
value in the business Of baking. The
machine is very simple in construction,
and is worked by three men-one CIV
ing it the motive power by means Of a
crank. The dough is forced through a
system Of rollers and allowed to fall
upon an endless strip Of canvas, where
a revolving knife cuts the fat and
broad layer into the required loaves.
These sections are then folded upon
each other, 80 that the cut edges Of the
loaf are not exposed, which would al
low the necessary gases to escape and
spoil the bread, taken of the canvas and
placed in the ordinary boxes, to be con-
veyed to the ovens. 1t is claimed that
bread moulded in this manner remains
sweet many days, and the process is
very rapid. Three men will prepare a
barrel Of -four for baking in 80 minutes,
whereas It would take the same force
81 hours to prepare the same amount
by the ordinary hand and weighing pro-
cess. Mr.. darcy has applied fora pat
emit for his invention.-S. +. Bulletin.

WHY IMPEACHMENT FAILED. - Tho
House Of Representative, says the Spring
6eld Republican, failed to present arsi-
cles Of impeachment against President
johnson simply because there was no
evidence to sustain such action. The
majority Of the judiciary committee so
assert, and the coantry know that is 10
true, for II be had committed official
crimes meriting such punishment they
would have been known and read Of all
men. The advocates Of impeachment
choose to account for their failure in
other ways. The Washington CORES
pondsut Of the Anti-Slsvery Standard
gives the view Of the influences at work
to prevent impeachment:
HThe causes that prevent the i'm
peachment are, briefly, the intriguing
Of cliques for the Presidential success
zion, the cowardiee Of the old whig ell
ement in the party, and the timidity of
the national bank interest, to which
must be added the natural deprsvity Of
politicians generally. These secret in
hueuces are the determination Of the
Grant and Chase factions that Ben
Wade shall not be made President
through impeachment, thereby giving
him the frst chance for the nomination
Of the party in 1868. It is well known
that Chief Justice Chase has been bring
ing his personal Influence TO bear upon
members of both houses, both directly
and indirectly, against impeachment
during the last two weeks. The Chief
Justice Of the United States descending
from bis high place to intrigue for his
own nomination to the Presidency, by
opposing an impeachment at the trial
OF which he would have to preside, and
because such impeachment would ben
eft a rival candidate, lisa humiliating

badge received . characteristic distine-
ton from its peculiar color and materi-
al. With the Essenian Mssons, it was

similar tendency, and accompanied by
illustrations not less inspiring and sat

[RE,oRrrD DhLY BY n. H. rLAoo. BANKER.
PROTEST AGAINST LICENSE.
Com HIII. Aur. "a. lss7.

GOLD HILL, Aug. "a, 1867.
Editor Mews IL desire to call the at
tention of the public to what is, l think,
the unjust cause of the high price,
comparatively, of fruit, vegetables and
butter, etc., in this town. The same
cause may operate in Virginia city, and
probably does. Here a license is foist-
ed upon pedlars, who sell less than a
load Of vegetables or butter, of $32.
Now comparatively few produce-men
who visit our place, can afford to pay
this license, and if they do they' charge
in proportion to the established high
rates. To illustrate: And | call upon
every family man to make a note Of this:
We have to pay 8 cents per pound for
potatoes, when if it were not for this IL
cense tax, we should not have to pay
over % cents per pound. And we pay
IS cents per pound for butter, when if
we could purchase the article direct
from the wagons we could get it for 35
cents per pound.
The license does not yield the town.
from produce pedlars, any considerable
amount of revenue, but it does greatly
enhance the price Of certain necessaries
OF life, as | have shown. Pedlars can
not afford to pay such q tax, and hence
they must sell their entire load here, or
20 to Virginia with it, where, / pre-
sumo, some of them may be enabled to
secure custom that will warrant them
in paying the license there required.
The remedy for the evil complained
Of, is the repeal of, or the very great
reduction of the amount required by,
our present license law, as it bears upon
produce pedlars. Will not u town
authorities repeal the law or ordinance
complained of? If not, the people Of
Gold Hill must continue to pay 8 cents
per pound for potatoes aud IS cents per
pound for butter, when they might
otherwise procure the former for q cents
per pound and butter their bread for 35
cent per pound,-and some "other
things " in proportion. Yours,
A FAMILY MAN.

DOUBLED Up DoUBLY.-The Bulletin
lays an a~nti-eoercion article appeared
in the Marysville Appeal of December 2,
1861. That 10 very true. Such an ar
ticle did appear ; but it was written by
the gentleman who is now the leading
editor Of the Bulletin. 1t is very cool
of him to seek to justify the bad course
Of the Bulletin because he was foolish
or wicked enough to adopt the sam
course himself while editor Of the Ap-
peal. he seeks to justify his present
position BY his former wrong acts. BY
the same reasoning he could excuse any
other crime, because he at one time did
the like himself. In view of all that has
taken place within the last six years, we
should think the gentleman would feel
ashamed to bring forth to view what be
wrote at one time a. editor Of the APPEAL
about I" conquered provinces" etc.
We arc told by reliable gentlemen
that when be wrote these articles, be
was waited upon by prominent Repub-
licans who told him that it would not
do to write in that style. Since that
time the ownership Of the appeal has
changed hands, but the Bulletin is now
owned by the same persons who owned
it in ls6l.-Aary,rilk Appeal.
So the BuIlshn's quotation from the
Appeal only serves to bring before the
public the fact that it nOp employs a
cast of secession editor, in addition to
its regular Chivalry force.
