by frequent squalls OF rain. subtle influence on

depresses him in with all his fellow inortas
The sale well attended, although more than the
usual number to inspect the property rather than
to buy The land sold high ground and well drained
and is bounded the north by the Central Railroad IL
lies midway between Roselle Station and WeStheld
station directly in front of the property sold today
is promised by the railroad company as the new
place furnish any business II is obviously the policy
the company to establish depos, and the New
Jersey Central Railroad has not hitherto shown any dis
position to check the development Of the territory
through which it runs The prices, which given in
the full report below hardly up 10 the expectations
OF the aucOneers and certainly do not exceed the value
OF the property About One-haf the plots mapped out
were sod or about onefourh OF the tract which it In
tended ultimately to place in the market. We think the
owners did wisely let the lots be sold at low price,
since any improvements which may be made on them
will largely benefit tho portion which the present proprl
etOrs retain. 49, A. -,

peciaiiy true vi intellectual effort
When We turn for the first time our

ject, the kindred ideas flow with great
er freedom and abundance, and affords
all easier selection of what is suitable for
ILLUSTRATION.
And so the difference between an or
din ry mind anG the mind of Newton
consists principally in this, that the one
is more continuous attention than the
other-that Newton is able, without
fatigue, to connect inferences in one long
series toward determihate@ end while
the man of Dferior capacity is soon, OBJ
liged to break or let fall the thread
which he has begun to spin. This is, in
fact, what Sir Isaac. with equal modesty
and shrewdness, himself admitted. To
one who complimented him on his
genious, he replied that if he had made
any discoveries it was owing more to
patient attention than to any other
talent. Like Newton, Descartes also
Iarrogated nothing to the force of his in
tellect; what he had accomplished more
than other men, he attributed to the
superiority of his method. Nay, genius
itself has been analyzed by the shrewd-
est observers into u higher capacity OF
attention. "Genius," says Helyetius,
''is nothing but continued attention" F"
I"Genius," !" says Button, .'is only a pro-
tracted patience I'm the exact sci
ences, at least" says Cuvier. sit is the
patience of sound intellect, when in

At the election held in California last
week the Democratic ticket carried the
State. There were no State officers to
elect and the Democrats had q majority
in the last Legislature, so that they have
really gained nothing. In San Fran
cisco the Democratic candidate for May
or was defeated which is Democratic
loss. But little more than half the vote
was cast in the State, and the campaign
was conducted On the prejudice against
the Chinamen. The Cincinnati Com
mercial, speeking Of the result says:
The essential spirit OF this is Know
Nothingism. As the American party
aimed to practically do away with ma
turaIizatiOn, and keep Irish, Germans
and other aliens coming to the States,
from political fellowship in the Govern
ment, SO in California the Democracy
seek to put the great privilege of politi-
cal incorporation out of the reach of the
industrious Chinese, to whose labor the
State owes most of her important inn
proyements, as the Atlantic States owe
to Irish energy and industry many of
their great internal enterprises. 1t
seems to be q necessity of Democracy
to have some sort of nigger to oppress,
and and as California has very few rep
resentatiyes from Africa, puts the Ash
attic in his stead, and converts him to
the same political use. And SO it is that
by developinga spirit of ofKnow-Nothing-
ism, and pandering to the lowest race
prejudices, Democracy retains its hold
upon California. If there is anything
in this to rejoice over, the Democracy
are welcome to il.
