chief reproduction Of the Green river
country Of Kentucky, will this year
prove Il total failnre. No seed has yet
been sown, and none can be fora week

A STRANGE OccURRENcE.-The Solano
Press, of March 9th, relates the fol-
lowing:
On Wednesday last two men named
respectively, A. A. Dimmock and VIM.
Pike, were seen travelling toward Vaca-
vile in a one-horse wagon. They were
supposed to be from Bolinas Bay or
Sonoma county, and had arrived neal
Wesley Hills residence when last seen.
On Thursday Dimmock was picked up
on the roadside speeches., having been
evidently badly used by some one.
Having improved in condition, he as
serts that Pike beat him and robbed
him of S5s, and left him senseless. Dim
mock is now in the county hospital, and
is not expected to live. he is 4S years
old, and is said to have three children
in Maine and four (boys) in Marysville.
From papers found on him 1t appears
that he came to California in ls49, and
has been in Mexico and Peru. He has
a wagon and two horses, a brown and a
grey. Any Information concerning him
will be gladly received by James G..
Allison, Fairfield, Solauo county.
Pike is said to be about 3S years Of
age, 5 feet 10 inches in hight, and
weighs about l66 pounds; has light blue
eyes, dark hair and sandy whiSkers, and
right knee stiff. He has not since been
heard from, and is supposed to have
made his escape after the robbery.

Low Wharf.-The Sacramento river
has fallen in front Of the city to APPOINT
fourteen feet eight inches above low
water mark. At this stage of water it
appears that considerable difficulty is
experienced in navigating the river.
The steamer Chrysopolis, which left the
levee at 2 o'clock P. n. on Wednesday,
struck the Hogs Back between four and
Ave o'clock and was detained until
after midnight before she "a able to
get of. The Yosemite, on her upward
trip, passed the Chrysopolis with con-
siderable difficulty. She was compelled
to keep so ear shore as to damage her
cabin, breaking a quantity of glass,
etc., by striking a limb Of o tree. 1t
was designed to send down u steamer
and barge to the relief Of the C~hrysopo-
lis, but soon after four o'clock yesterday
morning a dispatch was received from
Benicia stating that the steamer had
passed that point on her way to San
Francisco.-Sae. Union, 29th.

LADIES on HoRsEBAoK.-The editor Of

Detailing q young lady while riding on
horseback, and so aroused his old fogy-
ism that he had to commit it to paper.
He says:
"There is death in the saddle, sure,
for every woman who follows the pres
emit dangerous fashion of riding side
ways. It is only a question of time ;
they are all bound to break their necks
in the end. If ladies would enjoy the
healthful pleasure Of horseback riding,
safe from such dangerous accidents as
that noted above, they should wear the
modest and beautiful Turkish riding
dress, and ride ~astride."
That was very much like the old wo-
man-who was talking over the horrible
calamity Of losing a child by drowning

that my boys shall not go about water

Mr.. EDITOR OF THE GOLD Hill NEWS :
Noticing what purports to be an extract
Of a letter written by a colored man in

on the subject of the Legislature, and
those who support its action-in which
is a SOLDERING compliment to the Enter
prise, and some i~nsinuations against the
loyalty of your truly valuable and con-
sistent journal, | take the liberty OF
stating, as one Of the colored men OF
this city, that no such letter or senti-
ment was ever written by any OF our
colored people. Furthermore, that If it
was written in this city at all, 1t was
written 6y n Of the muidttoe, in the En-
terprise office. We colored people, who
have lived in this city for the last FIVE
years, know well what has been the
course of that paper regarding our peo-
pie, not only here but in the Southland
its great love for the colored man has
been rather recent-although Mr.. Dag
gett's love for the colored CONAN dates
back 10 the time when he lived in San
Francisco. As a class, we colored peo-
pie do not wish yet to be placed on an
equality with the white people-because

ANOTHER YEAR.

Another year, another year,
Oh! who shall see another year,
Shalt thou, old man OF hoary head,
or eyesight dim, and feeble tread?
Expect it not! time, pain and grief,
Have made thee like the autumn leaf,
Ready, by blast or self.decay,
From its slight hold to drop away
And some sad morn may gid thy bier,
Long, long before another year!
Another year, another year,
Oh, who shall see another year?
Shall you, the young, or you, the fairf
All, the presumptuous thought forbear!
Within the church-yard's peaceful bounds
Come, pause and ponder Ger the mounds
Here beauty sleeps-that verdant length
or grave contains what once was strength
The child-the boy-the man are here;
You may not see another year!
Another year, another year,
Oh, who shall see another yearf
Shall I, whose burning thirst OF fame
No earthly power can quench or tame?
Alas! that burning thirst may soon
Be DER, and all beneath the moon
All my fine visions, fancy wrought,
And all this vortex whirl Of thought,
Forever cease and disappear,
Ere dawns on earth another year!
