BUILDING UPON The SAND.
BY ELIZA COCK.

Ills we'll 70 WOO, tits well 10 we'd,
For so the world has done
Since myrlles grew, and roses blew,
And morning brought tie sun.
But have a care, ye young ard fair
BE sure you pledge with truth:
Ee certain that your love will wear
Beyond the days Of youth.
For If you give not heart TO heart,
As well as hand for hand,
You'll find you We played the 'unwise' part
And "buiIt upon the sand"
IT'S well to save, tits well to have
A g1oIly store Of gold
And hold enough Of shining stuff,
For charity is cold.

BLONDE REBEcck.

Rebecca stood beside the well,
Many an age since she of old,
OF whom the sacred scriptures tell,
Had ceased to keep her f2ther's foil.
Another age, another land,
Dark splendor changed to gollen glow
Her face was what a master hand
Night cut upon a ca2co.
I brought q cup unto the well
And held it forth / wanted drink,
But life's great passion cast G spell
.'Give me to-loye !''-IIer eyes did sink.
Her eyes did sink, yet spake she clear,
Marking ny go5let's narrow rim,
"Whatcver vessel comcth here,
Love can but Ell it to the brim.
TIT is law thou must not doubt,
Man: loves the vessel held below.
We pour our hearts like water out,
And I'll it to the overflow.
"And be thy vessel great or small,
So great OF small the draught must e
So, too, thy life, for love is all,
The fret, the last, of destiny
Gle hvcth long who lovcth much,
For love il lifc's true measurement
Who liyeth not by love-to such
Life Is but thirst and discomfort"

THE BALANCE OF POWER.

The Sacramento Record quotes APP
proyingly from a cotomporary who
thinks white men should be less AFRO
giant about their race superiority; see
ing that they are really in minority in
the world. 1t concludes that '.'st-an-
ger things have happened than the
overthrow OF the balance OF power
now possessed by the white man, by
the swarming hordes of China and
Hindostan.''
Yet the Record is bitterly opposed
to all legislation looking 10 the exclu-
sion OF this Monaghan race from these
shores. Though realizing that there
Is danger it appears to be willing TO
TAX the chances, and To incur the re-
sponsibiiity Of destroying the pres
ent hslapce of power held by the white
men, and to give up this the fairest
portion of the American Continent TO
these swarming hordes of China and
Hindostan. Strange faulty!

HAS NEVADA JURIsDIcIIoYr

The Arizona papers are w~rangling
about the legality Of the vote of Pah
Ute county, which was cast for IcCor-
mick for delegate to Congress. The
Arizona Miner claims that tine county
is actually III the state Of Nevada,
land il remains e be seen whether
Governor Stafford and Secretary Bash
ford are sufficiently base and lost 10
all shame as to count this vote" The
Citizen claims that the territory ceded
TO Nevada has never been legally ac-
cepted by this State; but even If il has
taken legal possession, IT. Thomas and
the citizens there are in Arizona. The
Citizen adduces a evidence TO sub
stantiate this claim, a letter from q. II.
Paddock, OF ~. Thomas, under date of
Ncylmber 18th. lie says: 81 am sat
isfied that these settlements are EAST Of
the Nevada line. From tho point the
surveyors are now at, a due south line
will go west Of this place"
The official survey now being run 10
determine the boundary of Novad.,
will settle this disputed point, as flr
rs 81. Thomas is concerned, but il does
not determine the question whether
the territory acquired from Arizona
has been legally accepted or not by
the State Of Nevada. This matter Ia.
been discussed considerably here. and
as there is some doubt as to the pres.
ent status, it would be well for tn.
Legislature o take some action in tn,
premises. The Constitution having
fixed the boundary, an amendment o.
that instrument may be considered
essential to a legal transfer of a por
ton now known as Lincoln county

THE CoLUsA SuN.-The Colusa sun.
published by Addington a Green, has
entered On its sth volume. Located
amidst the fines; agricultural lands of
the State, and settled by one Of the
most hospitable people in the world,
Colusa has grown from the insignif-
ant village OF 1850 To a large and pros
porous tovn-,he best business town
in Northern California. Hon. VIII. :.
Green, the editor Of the sun, IS Il
nephew OF the celebrated Duh Green.
of Kentucky, and he has inherited
much 81 his business tac,, aad cdito-
rial ability. Under his management
tho sun has become a power in that
section Of the STATE, and j. without ex-
ception the best newspaper published
north of Sacramento. In all land nat
tiers. Mr.. Green is an unquestioned au-
thority, and the Suns influence i
greatly due to the fact that il has been
devoted TO the service of the people
and Of the state. The present pros
perity of Colusa is 10 q remarkable ex-
tent due to the zeal and ability with
which its advantages have been pre-
sented 10 the public. Colusa is a mon
ument of the value of a live, fair and
able newspaper.

HOW TO RAISE THE WIND.

The members of the Legislature are
looking about TO see whore the cash is
to come from To pay current expenses.
A bill is pending in the Senate 10
create Legislative funds for the purpose
of paying the members aud attaches
per diem and mileage. The bill auth
orizes the State Treasurer TO set aside
e73,5s0 in gold coin from the first
moneys coming into the General Fund,
which shall constitute q fund to be
denominatcd "the state Legislative
Fund" IL gives a show for those
holding warrants on the fund Of the
last session, Is any deficiency of that
session may be paid out of this fund.
The warrants are to bear interest at
the rate Of twelve per cent. per annum.
Five thousand dollars are set aside for
the incidental expenses of the House,
and foul thousand in favor Of the Sem
ate, TO be paid out IS each body may
direct.
1t is = hard state of things when a
State is compelled to resort 10 the ere
alton Of a fund Of this character.
There wa some good, hard serse in
Governor Blasdel's comments on this
legislation; but II Is necessary that
some method should be devised 10
meet these expenses. The members
must have money, and without this
method how j. it to he raised?

MOTLEY AND THE ENGLISH MISSION.

When Mr.. Motley was removed
from the position of Minister at the
Court of Austria by President John
son, Q general howl went up all over
the country against the removal.
Johnson was denounced and Motley
exalted 10 the skies. Ia the course of
events 8 Republican President has
felt it due 10 the public service that
Mr.. Motley should no longer represent
this country at the Court of 81. James.
Motley has been recalled summarily,
and General Schenck confirmed to
| succeed him. But this time what a
difference in public sentiment Mot
ley has appealed TO the American
people in an elaborate defense of his
action, but that defense is almost with
out readers-certainly is read without
creating any visible interest among
any except the few personal friends of
the ex-Nlinister. What is the cause
OF this extraordinary change?
Does not Mr. Motley stand as high as
a statesman. a historian, and a repre-
sentative of the sovereignty ofthis ma
ton a ever? Yet the very men who
most loudly applauded him for his
attempt TO thwart the will of President
Johnson, are lately the loudest 10 con
denim him for attempting TO hold over
in n similar office in England. II is
certainly no desirable that the
Administration should be represented
by a Minister in harmony with il now
than it was in ls6S. This Senatorial
qualification shows what q pressure
party con bring to bear upon those
who profess to represent its principles.
The fact is that Mr.. Motley never
should have been appointed n Minister
at any Court. He is a passable histo-
rian. a poor novelist, a bad poet. and
a still worse diplomatist. Unaccus-
toned TO politics or politicians, or the
active duties Of a business man.
