lends, Tor that the press sys'emati-
cally e. Some narrow-minded
editors <and equally sap-headed
mining men belieys that in order to
says any effect at all with the pub
lie report of mine must glitter
with false statements, They do
not pause to consider that readers
are liable to suspect dubious mo-
tives and finally come to place no
reliance in what is thus set forth.
While We believe in extending all
reasonable encouragement to new
mining ventures, we deprecate the
belit,ling of = newspaper aud the
deludipg of the more susceptible
ones of the public with false state
ments of the condition of mines.
At this moment we have in our
mint q certain paper printed on
the Comstock noted. if for any
thing at all, for verbosity and flip
pancv, which never descends to
plain, unalloyed facts about mines
IN its weekly reviews. 1t therefore
does more harm than good to the
interests which it attempts IN a
cringing way TO serve. Ii an indi-
vidual or . paper wants to carry
with what is said, care
must be taken to avoid inconsist'
epcy and unreasonahleness in ut
terances. no. to say lack Of truth.
So far as We are concerned. what
ever We may Eaye TO say about the |
mines of this district or any other |
will be based upon personal obSer-
walton or upon the statements OF
reliable persons, Ia which case the |
of information will be

Trnncated Trees.

The good taste and sound judg-
ment Of mutilating, at the fall of the
leaf, trees cultivated for shade or or
nament,by cutting off their tops and
limbs, that they expand to broader
extent, may well be questioned
These trees, when not enriched by
their summer foliage, ARE still objects
of perennial beauty from their grace
full forms and tracerY. By this arti-
fetal process the symmetry and pro-
portion of the arches, curves, and
flowing line, the ornamentation OF
nature, are marred land in their place
deformed, spectral, and melancholy,
if not ludicrous trunks are present
ed. Besides, according to aboricul-
ture, this remorseless surgery impairs
the vitality of the tree, and tends to
its certain and premature decay.

Mighty Right.

The new editor of the Wheeling
Register, George III. Moffett, Esq. in
his salutatory, ON assuming editor
ial control of the paper, uses the fol-
lowing pertinent, sound and truth
full remarks. He says:
''The lust of power on the part of
our public rulers and the luxury,
sloth and Indifference of the people
have been the cause of our wander
ing so far from the old land marks.
But now there is an unmiStakable
independent spirit among the people
prompted by an innate sense of right
which causes them to rebel against
party when party lines are drawn and
the party whip cracked for the pur-
pose of enforcing wrong measures.
This feeling is not confined to those
of any one political party, but is pre-
valent among all and in this healthy
public sentiment are centred the
hopes of urfuture. We believe that
the American citizen in his full and
proper development, and moving in
the grand sphere which the Consti-
tuition marks out for him. equal to
the high mission whereunto he is
called-the perpetuation of liberty
regulated by law.'

An attentive audience of ladies
and gentlemen assembled at King

public installation of officers elect OF
Washington and Integrity Lodges,
X. of p. At about a quarter to eight
o'clock the members of the two Or
ders, in full uniform, marched from
their Lodges to the Hail. The plat
form was decorated with the ensigns
of the two Lodges. The exercises
commenced with singing the open
ing ode, and the offering up of a
prayer by Rev. VIM. Gerhardt, Pre-
late. Vice Grand Chancellor 4. ID.
Staley was then announced, and for
mally admitted to the Hall. He took
his position and the officers elect be-
ingarranged in proper position, were
duly installed. The ceremony was
beautiful and impressive. At the
conclusion of the installation cere-
monies, Sir Knight r M Price made
a few remarks pertinent to the occa-
sion, after which the installation ode
was sung. The ceremony ended with
prayer by the Prelate and the sing
ing of the closing ode.
