MEMORY.

A good memory is a very convenient
arrangement to be possessed of. 1t is
refreshing and truly h~umanizing. to be
able readily and freely to revert back to
the pleasing incidents and bright spots
in ones lifetime, turning over the daily
pages of life's journal, and one by one
reading the many kindnesses received,
and happy experiences recorded therein.
Gratitude is the child of memory, and
nothing exercises q moro pure, holy,
and good influence over the governing
impulses aud motives Of ones life, than
cherished remembrances Of kind words,
deeds, and needed favors received at the
friendly hands Of others. There are
those, however, who cannot remember
much of anything. They are e~ternally
looking ahead, for the good things Of
the future, generally ~forgetful of past
favors and kindnes,es. Such people
should die early the sooner the better.
There are many things we would all
like to forget. D~isagreeable occur
rences, false friends, blighted hopes,
unmerited wrongs, unappreciated kind
nesses, and cold deliberate sights, are
all incidental to ones lifetime, and re-
garding these, q good memory is not to
be coveted. Let them pass. Naught can
be gained or experienced but unhappi-
ness in recalling them. Disturb not
their fostering corpses, but bury them
deep in the bottom of Lethe's dark
waters

Heavy BULLION SHIPNENT.-The heav-
lest bullion shipment from Gold Hill,
was made this morning. 1t was o sight
"good for sore eyes," and we take
pleasure in recording it as an item in
the history of Gold Hill. In the Bank
of California, where Wells, Fargo 1
Co.'s express is located, we saw seventy.
Eve bars of gold and silver bullion, al
on one pile, the weight Of which was
Eve thousand two hundred and 6fty-ons
pounds, and the value of which was
Sl4s, 7o7 Go. This certainly is a very
large shipment for one day from Gold
Hill, but the bars had accumulated fol
some days, on account of the previous
storms. The largest shipment ever be-
fore made in one day was the nth OF
last March, which consisted of 81 bars,
weighing two tons, and valued at $751;,

The New York Nation calls attention
to the fact that the indebtedness Of the
United States is not only a far lighter
debt than the English have borne I'M
iinchingly for a hundred years, but is
ia far lighter debt than the Dutch have
borne without q murmer for two hun
dred years without extraordinary re-
sources, without increase of population,
and without any great political future.

Of it, or to evade it, or twist the letter

those who trusted them. There never
has been any great party among them
in favor Of any such dodge oil device"

YEARLY SHIPMENT OF BuLLioS.-There
was shipped, by Wells, Fargo Il Co., and
the Bank of California, from their office
in Gold Hill, during the year 1867, gold
and silver bullion valued at S5,372,26s
81. Besides this, the Gold Hill mines
produced at least a million and a half
which was assayed and shipped from
Virginia city. Pretty good for the Gold
Hill end Of the Comstock. The yield
for the year 1868 promises to be equally
as good, if not better.

We direct attention to the advertise
ment of Mrs. G. NJ. Blake, Principal Of
the Oakland (Cal.) Seminary for Young
Ladies. The next term commences on
the 9Th of January. Over tho signature
of Visitor we find the following in
tho Oakland Daily NeUs: "I have been
watching this Institution carefully since
its commencement, and have often Wis
tied it to test its thoroughness: 1t has
been under the care of the present Prin.
cipal tits fouuder) since November,
1858, nine years. 1t has never changed
hands, has been under the same careful
management since its commencement,
and is now very fl%ourishing, with lbs
pupils in attendance the past term. /,
has become one of the leading institu
tons in the State, and ono Of which the
people of Oakland may be justly proud.
Every philanthropist and patriot may
rejoice in the Triumphant success Of such
an institution, and it is delightful to
contemplate the moral and religious in
fuence brought to bear upon the young
minds now receiving temporal and eter-
nal moulding in this school. Efforts
are put forth to produce in the hearts
of the young ladies that deep and abid-
ing sense of their duty to their Creator
which is the browning glory of the
female character, and without which
the sweetest flowers of taste and richest
fruits Of intelligence are fleeing and
evanesceut. This Institution has arisen
entirely on its own merits. Its location
is delightful, with beautiful surround
ings, and everything to mako scholars
happy, comfortable and at home. The
buildings are large and pleasant ; the
rooms are cheerful and well ventilated.
There are three separate departments in
the school-Primary, intermediate and
Collegiate, having a full corps of expe-
rienced and successful teachers Of high
culture, ten in number. The Institution
contains within itself all the means me-
ccssary to m extended, useful, refined
and moral education. Throughout, il
appears to be conducted with great
ability, and With q moral tone that can
not fail to command the highest COM
mendation. Altogether, I know of no
Institution more deserving Of public
patronage"

rive their civil polity directly contrary
to most of the great writer's on natural
law, and has no law to uphold 1t but
arbitrary power.
Still they continue to practice on the
old feudal idea. The ground taken by
our Government was distinctly announ-
ced by Governor Marcy and General
Cass when in the State Department.
The latter, in 1859, sent instructions to
our Prussian minister on the subject.
It was explicitly stated that the Ameri-
can Government sis opposed to the doc
trine of perpetual allegiance, and main
tains the right Of expatriation and the
right to form new political ties else
where" But he, at the same time, said
that if o nativs-born Prussian Tor Of
any other country at the time Of his
emigration, was liable to any duties or
to any penalties, his naturalization in
the United States could not exempt him
from liability to those duties or penal
ties If he voluntarily returned to his
native country. When no liabilities exist
against emigrants at the time Of emil
grafton, /" the law Of nations" General
Cass said, "gives no right to any coun-
try to interfere with naturalized Amsri-
can citizens and the attempt to do SO
would be considered an act unjust in
itself, and unfreindly towards the United
States"
This is the present condition Of tho
subject. The protection to naturalized
citizens rests upon a diplomatic note
from the State Department, Il 10 time
that 1t should be established on o for
NAL and solemn declaration Of the
National Legislature.
