GREAT ExcITukST-EpIToR GEcosD:-There
has been considerable excitement in town FOR some
time about an eminent band OF performers from
our sister city, Marysyille. You coule hear the
subject discussed in the post and express offices; in
the drygood and hardware stores; groceries. sa-
looms, and even the eobbers lad something TO say
about the Jerkers. Last night the curtain was
raised: the gloom disappeared: and the charming
performers made their appearance on the stage of
action; the result was that food of pleasure and
enjoyment burst upon our town. At an early hour
Of the evening the merchants left their counting
rooms; the physicians their patients; the awy ers
their Offices the blacksmiths their anvils; carpen-
tiers their shops; and the miners cast aside their
picks and shoyels. aud all were marching toward
the Riai!o, some on double-quick. Not even young
men, oil bachelors, and graz haired widowers. but
married men: all, all were Fastening if for the
first to get their fill Of pleasure.
1t seems that there is so much mud and water in
Marysvilie that jerking is at low ebb. Likely
that the jerking dens are full of mud aud wa ter,
therefore the jerkers searching for dry nest.
But as far as we are concerned we hope that our
friend the appeal. will call back his wandering
children and lead them into dry spot on the banks
OF the muddy Yuba Yours. VIRTUE.

MORE RAIS.-Considerable rain accompanied by
high winds, has fallen during the past week, and
sitting comfortably in our 0roville sanctum, with
beautiful ladies promenading handsome streets,
and glancng sweet smiles in at window from
under loves of bonnets our heart goes out towards
the poor, luckless wights who are struggling for
existence in the mud of Marysvile, Sacramento,
Dutch Flat Chico and kindred localities. What
grand places for swallows to build and brood in
but what could have induced reasoning man. with
out the aid of wings, to build habtations in such
mudholes Would they like to exchange places
with the Freedman? All we'll if they only have
patience for yet little while their localities shall
bake in the summer sun until the earth yawns and
groans with fever, while Oroviile with beautifully
shaded streets and arbors, is continual paradise.
How singular it is that there so many people
the mud. when they could build happy and pleas
ant homes in Orovie and feel that they were
brought into the world for nobler purposes than to
war against the elements. There's the Dutch Flat
railroad, fitting from the summit, where chimneys
have to be topped to reach above the snow, to the
fathomless mud of Suffers Fort, to be baked
into solid foundation for the granite capitol of the
State. Feather river affords excellent route for
a railroad and the solid foundation of Orovile
wonld easily sustain the weight of the proudeSt
capitol. Bat the fools are not all dead yet, and We
expect to the "old sticks in the mud continue
their efforts until they meet the fate of the old
buck that thought his head harder than the return
ing pendulum.

WHERE Is THE FAuLT.-ED. REcoRD:-We be-
eve that you are ready always to publish anything
in your valuable paper that has tendency to puri
fly morals, refine manners, build up intellectual and
moral power, expose swindling games, and urge
governmental officials to perform their whole duty.
We are not going to expose any corruption, or
denim any postmaster, but there is some wrong
with the United States mail between this place and
San Francisco. Last Monday we received a letter
dated San Francisco October 20th and another yes.
terday dated San Francisco, November 2nd, 1866.
On the 5th day of December, mailed letter
for San Francisco and it has not been received yet.
Where is the fault? Who is neglectiny his duty?
Is it postmaster or the postmaster in the mud
dy holes between here and San Francisco? Won
der if they have not fallen into the bottomless pit
in SACRAMENTO or stuck in the muddy mortar of
Marysville Mr.. Editor, will you be so kind as to
give the postmasters little rubbing. Such neglect
is enough to break off many dear engagement
between young men and their beautiful charmers.
Yours respectfully, CITIZEN.

GAN HONEST CONFESSION ETc--The Marys-
vile Californian appears to have finally discover
ed that their city Is injaring itself well as every
portion Of Northern California, by It's unrelieTed
selfshness and dog in the manager policy. That
paper Of a recent date says:
s.Yuha county has been cursed with private road
and bridge franchises and yetthe county seat Is the
most inaccessible place in the interior few
days since we were informed by Mr. Aent, OF Ne
yada who IS enc OF the most extensive cattle deal
in the State, that he could afford TO pay more
for cattle az Stockton 10 drive TO NeFada, than he
could to the Suffer and Colasa county raisers, they
delivering al Yuba City, or OF dealers IN 1 uba
county Immediately south OF the city OF Marysvlle
whose stock must cross the Fail Bridge: and the
reason he assigns Is the excessive tolls lie or any
drover, or even Traveller, has to pay"
Very good. II Is gratifying 70 know that there
is some in their midst to tell them why their prop
erty is depreciatng and sinking into the mud, and
to force upon the conviction that they cannot main
tain great city, by an embargo and tolls
laid upon business aud travel. Prior TO the
completion OF the railroad. the teamsters of Butte
and Pumas had foundered in the filthy sloughs
surrounding that city, until the meagre manhood of
MarysvilIe became ashamed of itself, and they mag
unanimously Gt magnaninous for them.) voted
to bridge the slough and to collect toll from Butte
and Plunias teamsters until the bridge should be
paid for. They accomplished the prodigions feat.
We trust that paper may continue knocking at the
dull brain OF Marysvile until that old stupidity is
convinced that her chances for prosperity and ad
vancement are superintendent upon the general
prosperity of Northern California. and not upon
the tariffs and tolls. and delays that they can i'm
pose upon its business and travel. Dig the mud
out of their ears and make them hear. Connect
the railroads. abolish toll bridges, and invite bust
ness to your DOORS instead OF barring it OUT if you
wish to prosper Stopping travellers in Marysville
when they have 10 carry shovels to work their way
through your streets, is ridiculous Don't be so
careful of your mud. Let the railroad bailders
bridge it over, and let the State progress.
