Nbo Docs the WorkS

Journalists, like oil other members of
the human family, have their faults and
weaknesses, and sometimes do acts
which wisdom or decorum would for
bid. journalism necessarily experiences
the results Of incompetency or want OF
dignity on the part of individual pro-
p~rietors or managers of papers but,
MS q whole journalism presents as clean
a record in all that pertains to sound
morality, useful knowledge, tho m
provement Of society, the correction Of
public evils, and generally the advance
ment Of all that is good in man, as can
be shown by any other agency. There
is no measure for the moral or political
Improvement Of the human family, no
measure to lessen the hardships and
increase the comforts Of mankind that
has not and does not depend for its uc-
cess upon tho support and advocacy of
the press. Without it, humanitarians
and philosophers are powerless, and
science itself finds its natural develop
opmeut under the fostering patronage
Of the newspapers. The puplic journals
in this country are the vehicles of dis
cussion and thought. The great mass
Of men who have no time or the means
to be book-readers, find in their news
papers tho only discussion Of political,
financial and literary and scientific
questions which ever reaches them.
The time has gone by when the stump
speech served to cnlighten the people;
the press has in q great degree SUI
perceded the stump orators, and
though ablo and elaborate speeches
are still listened to from the hust-
ings, they are not heard rs oracular
declarations, but rs additional discus
sion of topics already made familiar
through the newspaper. AS the news
paper has become more and more the
political instructor Of tho people it has
risen in dignity and capacity equal to
the more important task required Of it.
As organs ofparty, the newspaper press
has hitherto had forced upon it the al
ways ungracious task Of supporting men
for office; not because of their moral or
intellectual fitness, but because they
were the party nominees. In this way
the newspapers have been instrumental,
and very largely SO, in helping to office
National and State, municipal, cxecu-
tive, legislative and judicial class Of
men who, without such aid, and if left
to find their natural level, would be the
solutions or omcial life, the scavengers
of politics, and the lowest Of all social
evils. But the newspapers Of the past
age-and there are q few who still cling
to tho practice-haye lifted these crea-
lures from the kennel and placed them
in office, whence they have derived profit
and honor, and have given neither in
return. Tho newspapers, however, are
getting over this weakness. They un-
derstand that party, as well as the pub
lie, respects and supports that paper
best which tells the truth, and strikes
knavery on all occasions, and which
champions party best by repudiating in
its name all association with or respon-
sibility for the personal dishonesty or
official incapacity of mel in Office or
seeking to be elected.

SCRAPS FROM LIFE" Papa's come y
And eyes grow brighter, and feet 60
lighter, and all the home seems filled
with fairies. AS the merry shout goes
out from heart and soul, so full Of mirth
and music, so full of life and love, the
birds sing softly, and the zephyrs stop
to listen, and the life forgets to be
weary.
"Papa's come |" Day after day It's
the same Joyous p~ulsation, never feeling
less, never weary Of loving, never grow
ing cold. Though tho stern realities of
life come upon us, and seize our time,
and thoughts and strength, and though
cares and troubles absorb US entirely,
the merry shout Of "papa's coming !"
makes everything light and easy, and
makes the sun shine brighter than be-
fore.
"Papa's coming p and willing hands
will take off half your burden, and a
willing heart will take your care, and
just appreciation will make you happier
and more beautiful than before.
"Papa's comep A strange and Curl
Gus thing, this impress of a stronger
life upon o home. Children fly to it,
expand in it, love it. Woman would DO
desolate without 1t; she would sadly
miss its gaiety and mirthfulness.
"Papa's come!' And night has come,
and quiet, and appreciation, and earn
estness, and confidence and rest. The
homo is still, and true hearts beat in
unison. Happy home! happy father,
happy mother, joyous children !! Sing
your songs of peace, angels hear them ;
raise your voices in prayers Of thank
~fulness, God will hear them. Sing
softly in your heart Of hearts, "Papa's
come, may God protect him."

NEVADA MINIyG.-The Transcript Of
January 2lst has the annexed on mining
operations in its locality:
The present season has thus far been
exceedingly %unfavorable to mining.
Especially is this so in regard to by
draulic mining. In nearly every section
of the country miners have been de-
prived Of water in consequence Of the
breaking Of bitches, caused by the floods
or by land or snow slides. When bitches
are broken by slides it is difficult to
repair damages so long as the weather
continues bad, and for this reason min
ers are deprived of water for weeks ut a
time. In several mining localities in
this county work has been suspended
for several weeks for want of water, and
in other places the great depth Of snow
prevents men from working. The dam.
age to bitches, fumes and other works
necessary to carry on mining has been
great, but the delay consequent upon
repairing Of damages has been a very
much greater loss to miners.

THERE is in New York n gentleman
Of ample fortune, which he received by
inheritance. His wife recently ordered
q new carriage, and was anxious that
the "family" c~oat-of-arms should be
emblazoucd upon its pannels. This the
husband consented to, and taking q pen,
tho millionaire drew something resemb-
ling q small mound; by it was stuck n
manure fork, and upon the fork was
perched a chanticleer, rampant. "Why,
what is this 2" asked madam, in amaze
ment. "This," said the man Of money,
sis our family coat-of-arms. Ny grand
father made his money carting manure
in Brooklyn, and invested 1t in real cs-
tate in New York. Now listen to tho
explanation ofthe arms. This moundaud
fork represents my grandfather's occu-
patton; the cock perched upon the top
of the fork represents myself, who have
done nothing but flap my wings and
ON that dunghill ever since" The
carriage still has plain panels.

PACIFIC CoAsr MES.-The Washing
ton correspondent Of the San Francisco
Bulletin says:
Among the we'll known Pacific coast
men who have located themselves here
are Judge Charles T. Bolts and Charles
D. Poston, lately delegate from Arizona.
They have associated themselves in the
law and claims business, and have the
reputation Of doing well. The Judge
recently argued the case in the Supreme
Court involving the right Of General
Kearny to grant the water lots to the
city Of San Francisco, and the effect of
the so-called Water Lot Act for the
State, passed in 1851. He assisted Judge
Lake in the case.

YAxs.-We noticed on Washington
street, near Davis, a large lot of yams,
from the Society Islands, which are be-
ing sold TO Cinnamon and others for
food. They are in good condition and
retail readily for FIVE cents per pound.
They weigh from FIVE to fifteen pounds
each, and are said to grow readily and
yield largely in the proper soil. The
yam might prove q profitable crop in
some parts Of California, and the ex-
pertinent Of %cultivating it ought by all
means be made, for it would cost but q
trife, and, if successful, would add a
new to our farmers.-S. F.
