OPINIONS differ a to what constitutes propriety
in the conduct of lie, viewed in relation to posi-
ton and rank. Fir instance, some persons ex-
press themselves ofthe opinion that it is unsui,ed
TO the position Of aPrime Minister Of the Crown,
or any other Minister, that toe incumbent should
be seen canvassing the city, earnestly soliciting
and pertinaciously pressing people to invest i've
dollars for a ticket for a ball in aid of q hotel.
Were the object nview TO aid some great public
charity or benevolent institution,-say these
faultfnders,-the act would DO honor TO both the
cause and the official; but otherwise, the robes of
Office are cheapened and bedragsled TO an extent
that IL suggestive o! contempt. Others again
might think that rne Ministers, by their action,
show a copmendabIs democratic condeScension,
and an interest in common with every day affairs,
that ought to make hem popular. Il is a COM
forting fact that everybody is at liberty TO hold
and enjoy their own opinions.

With some elements of truth, the above, which
we find extensively going the rounds of the press,

that the man was concerned in the Nathan muir

merclal prosperity Il not peculiar 10 civil liberty.
History, however, shows Us that the first step in
the decline Of the ~proudest and most powerful
nations has been taken by the assumption of alb
solutism in their governments.
1t might be said, " do we not have our rights
and our freedom in spite Of these changes just as
much az ever?" To which we answer yes, if we
except the right Of self government and all that
that means. and the Importance Of this is as
great to Us individually as if we were members
Of a nation of fifty millions instead of fifty thou
sand. We DO not know how long such privileges
as we now enjoy will be left unimpaired. for the
formal control of them is in the hands of tie
Government,-that Is, out Of our hands.
There Is one influence that we have not re-
ferred 20, and which makes our situation, under
these imperfect political conditions. compare
lively comfortable, and this is the predominant
public sentiment of the community sentiment
strongly Anglo-Saxon in its political tendencies,
healthy, independent and liberty-loving. 1t /:
not recognized as one of the = estates, - but it:
force is recognized, for it is the ruling influence
in the land. AS long as this is the fact, thing:
viii not be much worse for the public. There /:
no prospect that the Government will ever be
strong enough to ignore the public sentiment
here, as Napoleon III. has done in France. The
feelers which are occasionally put out, to speak
metaphorically, are significant Of what it would
like to do in this direction. On this influence W,
rest our hopes for the political future.

CALIFORNIA MISEs.-The Commercial Herald of
Francisco, in its Mining Review for 1871, "says
There can be no question but every thing wears a
most cheering aspect, and that the product will prove
to be unusually large. When we take into consider
alton the entire situation-the immense gains we
have now made in the business Of mining the i'm
proved processes and machinery lately introduced,
coupled with the great number of new reduction
WORKS erected, and the certainty of ample water sup
plies the approaching season, we find an aggregate Of
recently accruing advantages that warrants us in
predicting for the current year a yield of the precious
metals equivalent to eighty-ive or ninety millions of
dollars and should nothing transpire meantime TO
mar the present prospect, there would be little ground
for surprise should the product reach q hundred
millions by the end Of the year.
Everywhere new Ore-crushing mills have been
erected, the most Of them Of large capacity, and
nearly all capable Of doing better work than the
average Of those before put up. Improved furnaces
have been bailt for roasting the rebelliOus ores, and
a great number Of smelling works constructed in the
base-metaI districts. In the bitches and reservoirs
built in this State the past year, our water-supplying
facilities have been increased fully twenty per cent,
while capital, the most powerful auxiliary of all. has
come to our assistance, with a freedom and readiness
never before experienced-sueh aid having, in fact,
never before been so fully deserved. With all these
helps, and the many new discoveries being made and
rich mines constantly developed, we feel confident,
that with no untoEard turn OF events, there will be
, IN red from the mineral regions west Of the Rocky
Mod ltains a hundred million dollars within the next
twelve months.
