POEM
Read by Mr.. John I. CHM at Carson
Theater, July 4th, 1871.
POEM

Hail Day! that saw a Nation born,
Whose life. as yet, is in its morn;
Whose name has been, and yet shall be
The synonym of Liberty;
Whose giant strides toward the goal
OF freedom nerved MANS arm and SOU.
And ne'er were equall'd since the chime
That ushered in the dawn of Time;
Whose quenchless light, like that of day
Shall grid the earth, as on its way
II marches ever, in its might,
ResistlessS in AGGRESSIVE Right;
Whose bright example has been seen
OF earth, and will be followed, cen
Amid the wreck of nations strong
At present, in their shackled wrong.
Let Patriots all join hands to-day,
Let petty jealou>ies give way
To broader love of Freedom. None
Have perfect been incct time begun.
And " hile We differ as to modes
OF guarding Freedom and her codes,
Let those who Stand aloof and say
= More patriotic we. than they ~
Remember that the men who fought
For Liberty, refused not aught
OF aid eve from tyrantS tools
Whose art Of wal vas learned in schools
Where Freedom scarcely dared to dream,
And Manhood, even, did not seem
What Manhood is t~o-day-aS gre at
At labor as at head OF state.
This little Star-this Silver Vase
Nevada, cen. may claim a place
Among the CONSULTATIONS bright
That bask to-day in tn sunny light
OF Liberty; whose love Is strong
OF Freedom as her hate OF wrong;
Whose children's brawny arms and
hearts
Aided by science and the artS),
Have made the silver wool unfOld
For C~alifOrnia's vel of gold;
Whose deserts now yield up their wealth.;
Whose mountains breathe the balm OF
health;
Whose slalwar sons and daughters fair
Nav each one claim to be jOInt-Aelr
To that rich legacy of man
Left to Mankind, and not TO Clan.
Ye patriot Fathers, who have gone
To that reward SO richly won.
How much We owei Then let us pay
OF gratitude our mite to-day.
lille life is young, and hope is strong,
Renew the pledge, sing o'cr the song:
Let Freedom and our Nation be
The beacon light poSterity
shall steer for in the coming time,
Till not a man i'll any CLINE
shall feel or fear the tyrantS rod,
Or own a master, saw his God!

is true that clouds and darkness have
gathered around it, at different peri
DDS of our history, but they have
passed away and will be forgotten.
1t stands forth our proudest monu-
ment:
"As some tall cliff that lifts its awful form,
SweIIs from the vale and midway leaves
the storm;
Though round its breast the rolling
u are spread,
Eternal sunshine settles on its head"
The Republic has taken a new
lease of life. Oursky has been over
cast, and clouds and darkness and de-
struction as on high, have been
driven through the political atmos-
phere. The storm has expired IN
drops of blood, and we, in the morn
ing of our new existence, under the
bright rays of a full orbed sun, with
all about us purified and refreshed
by the results of the great contest OF
conflicting elements, our Constltu-
ton and our principles unriven by
the thunderbolt, with wings plumed
for an endless flight, will advance
onward and upward on our national
journey, until the brightest anticl-
pations and hopes shall be fulfilled:
By the experience of the past, and
the bright promise of the future,
preserving in our memories those
passages in our history which swell
the bosom of the patriot with pride
and exultation, we may, with honest
hearts and aspiring love of country,
give u%tterance to that beautiful SEN
timent
The Rose of England may fade.
The Lilly of France may wlther,
The shamrock of Ireland may decay,
But the Stars of America are eternal.

FIREMEN's DINNER.-The dinner
given by the Warren Engine Company,
to the Gold Hill boys and the Curry's
of Carson was a splendid affair. Three
long tables were spread in the Turn
VERNE Hall. to which the boys. $50 i'll
number sat down. Everything the
market could afford was lavishly put
before them; wines, lager, ETC., ad
libitum. The feast of reason and flow
nf soul, tOasts, .jestS and friendly
speeches, yer the order OF the day.
After the first table, the Governor and
his Aids, Grand Marshal and Aids,
sat down and partook of the refresh
ments, after which several speeches
were made in honor of the occasion.
Happiness and jollity prevailed. The
Gold Killers were escorted as far as
the Mound House, by our boys.
OUR FIREMEN.-Carson should be
proud of hertiremen. Public spirited
gentlemen are they, and never did
they do themselves so much honor as
on Tuesday last. Their appearance in
the procession was a credit to them;
particularly did we notice the hose
companies. The Plug Hats on any
other occasion would have been plug
uglies; but on Tuesday they seemed
becoming. The straw hats and white
shirts of the Curry Hose boys made
quite a feature in the procession. Good
luck to the tiremen of Carson and may
thew always conduct themselves as
they did on the Fourth of uly, 1871.
THE Firemen of Cold Hill, are a
credit to their town. A more orderly,
gentlemanly body of young men we
have seldom met. Not a vulgar word
not a sign of a brawl or boast did
we hear. We honor them n con-
g~ratulate their fellow townsmen in the
possession of such a well conducted,
we'll drilled organization.

French Hatred Of Prussia.

The military correspondent of an
English journal with Prince Frederick
Charles writes:
A French gentleman with whom
talked to day said that if the Prussians
would but resign their claim to Alsace
and Lorraine, France would rest salts
fed with the endurance of her children
and the heroic resistance of Paris,
would let Germany go in peace, and
would sheathe her sword without any
intention of drawing it again. He add
ed: But if Germany robs US of our
territory / will leave all my fortune to
my children only on the condition that
they swear vengence against the Prus-
SLAMS, and carry ont the legacy which
| transmit to them. In ten or twenty
years, it mattered not how long, France
will be strong again, and Germany will
have to answer for all she has now
done. The Germans are perfectly alive
to this legacy of hatred treasured up
against them. The military aristoc-
racy which rules in Prussia, educated
and trained entirely with view to
success in war, regard peace as hurtful
ty their interests, and likely to destroy
the manhood of the nation. "What
does it matter if our children have to
fight againl That will be their own
business" You will agree that such
a sentiment is wholly of the middle.
ages, but 1t exists. From a military
point of view, the Prussian, now the
German, organization is terribly eff
cient, but it affords the facility of
carrying the whole nation into war at
any moment, when the interests of a
class demand it. Even to soldier
the military atmosphere of the Pruss-
ian army is oppressive, and it is very
doubtful whether the machine lately
set going can be stopped as soon as its
present work is done.

How valerien Looks.


loorrcsponuenc e OF the London Daily News.
Mount Valerien is a splendid strong.
hold, well placed for defence and ad-
mirably fortified. Not having been
bombarded, it shows no sign of dam
age. 1t was more noticeable yesterday
for its dreary emptiness than for any
thing else. All the Frenchmen had
not gone from the place at the time l
lead you in to see it, though none we're
seen as we approached the gate. The
officers who go round with the Prussian
commander of artillery to hand over
the great keys and introduce him to
empty store rooms, wear the uniform of
the defeated side. There are three who
thus remain. They are the last repre-
sentives of the old garrison. All other
Frenchmen connected with the fort
have gone downhill across the Seine to
the Bots de Boulogne, away into the
mist towards Paris. Two of these
French officers belong to the artillery !;
one wears the red trousers of the line.
His face was pale and haggard, and he
appeared to have suffered sickness and
privation. His companions, though
grave and sad looking, showed less
signs of wear and tear. One had an
irrespressibly stout jovial aspect, which
no il-luck could change. They go
about their work in the manner of men
who feel painfully that their.duty must
be got through, and exchange few po-
lite phrases with the conquerors. The
younger artillery officer has word for
those who are likely to be so soon back
VIII th, 81,
take down the name and address of his
motherl She lives in Versailles. She
has not heard of him for long time.
A thousand thanks. A great favor; but
it will relieve her anxiety. He goes
away much pleased at the chance of
sending message.
Many guns have been removed.
About dozen heavy pieces are left be-
hind There is the huge Josephine"
ships gun, which sent shells so far
into the Prussian positions. Another
ships gun, unchristened, is almost
equally large. OF mitra,lleuses, small
arms, baggage, etc, no vestige was to
be seen. The barracks were very dirty !;
likewise the stables for the artillery
horses; and scores of Prussians might
be observed diligently beating dissin-
fecting powder into the mattresses which
the French had left. There had been
much sickness in the fort.
With glance round the foggy land
scape, we endeavor to sec Paris through
the haze, and then go down again.
The Prussian artillerymen and the
forty seventh line will be left in that
most uncomfortable of positions-an
abandoned fort. 1t will take Mt least
twenty-four hours to set things straight
and bring up stores. We observe, as
we decend, Montretout close beneath.
I wonder the Prussians could stay
there with Mont-Valerien held by the
enemy; yet stay they did in the form
of an outpost OF the fourth jaeger bat
TALON, and lost surprisingly few by
shells fired at them Heavy gums can
not keep away determined rifemen.

This, as I understand it, was the sub
stance of the address. What could be
better? He said not a word about De-
mocracy, not word abought Republic
anism, his feeling was evidently in favor
OF constitutional monarchy, as best
adapted to the habits and genius of the
Spanish people, and l must confess
that in this, as in everything else |
sympathize with him wholly. All his
subsequent conduct has been entirly in
accordance with this address, which
l heard him make in Malaga in the last
week OF September, 1868. l believe he
was perfectly sincere and whole hearted;
l loved him; l could have put my arms
around him and kissed him. if that had
been the fasion.
saw and heard him several times
after this, and always with the same
a true patriot and an enlightened, far
sighted statesmen; the man in Spain
who understood best what the Spanish
people need, and who is best able to
give it to them. His assassination at
this time ] consider as great calamity
to Spain as would have been to England
the death of Oliver Cromwell Immediate
ly after the execution of Charles /. 1t
looks as if God were not ready yet to
give peace and freedom to Spain, as If
she must suffer somewhat longer for
the sins and cruelties of past generations
The Spaniards are splendid people,
one cannot help admiring them; and
yet there is in them strong mixture
of the barbaric Moor as well as of the
European. Three centuries of the worst
form of the Papacy and the vilest spe-
cimens of absolute monarchy would
have been enough to demoralize and
ruin any nation. The Spaniards have
scarcely in all their history had a decent
sovereign, except for the very short time
that Joseph Bonaparte ruled over them.
The much Wanted Isabella l., though a
more interesting woman, was not a very
much better sovereign than bloody Mary
ofEngland, and the magnificent Charles
was glutton, hypochondriac and a liar
as well as a relentless, cruel, narrow
minded bigot and deyotee. Poor Spain
when will she ever come to good2 She
has for ages shed the blood of the saints,
and God in large measure is giving
her blood to drink. Perhaps, however,
the very assassination of Prim may
have something of the effect there that
the assassination of Lincoln had here,
and establish his work instead of de-
stroying it. God grant it may be so.
