MOTHER OF DEMONS.

According to the Jewish Talmud,
Lillith (the tabled mother Of demonsl,
was taken to wife By Adam. our first
parent. prior to the appearance of Eve
upon the scene. Being the legendary
mother Of all evil spirits, one would
quite naturally accept the story as a
fact when told that she became un-
manageable and tried to supercede
Adam as lord of all creation. Thwart-
ed in these, her evil designs, she took
to the regions Of the air, whore, as a
spectre in the disguise of a. beautiful
woman, she lies in wait for and poun-
ces upon defenseless children. Some
ignorant European Jews believe that
the beautiful murderess still inhabits
the air above our earthly abodes, wait
ing with the patience Of demon for
a chance to murder their little ones.
It is said that the word lullaby" is a
corruption of the words Lillia, abb. !"
or . Begone, Lillith," words used as a
charm by the superstitious mothers of
the middle age

Tie dear public long ago placed a

comedy, and no more just criterion Of
intelligence can be proposed than this.
The press aud people now tolerate on

tons in footlight amusement, and as a
consequence the great horde Of non
sensical absurdites have, through fl
nancial compulsion, been withdrawn.
People of the present age, erudite and
refined, prefer plot as the chief entree
in amusement cuisine, and in the great
laughing festival. y and I, which has
withstood the torrent of vituperation

absorbing in interest and without any
other accessory, aside from its, acting,

THE LAST WAGON ABANDONED.
"We abandoned our third and last
wagon at the foot of the Sierra Nevada
mountains, in the Carson Valley, and
reached Hangtown NOW Placerville), on
the last day of July, with the skeletons
OF our horses, our blankets, and our
cooking utensils, which were all we had
LETT from our comfortable outfit.
1t was common complaint among
the emigrants that they had been ne
elected by the authorities at Washington,
and it was, no doubt, the bounden duty
OF our Government, in addition to the
demonstrations mentioned above, TO have
established a chain of military posts
throughout the whole line, whereat the
weary traveller TO new home could have
received assistance and shelter until a re-
sumption OF his march became necessary.
In consequence of this neglect on the
part of the Government the plains were
whitened with the bones OF thousands OF
our best citizens.
1.-THE road along which we travelled
more resembled that of a vanquished
and defeated army than the route of a
peaceful and commendable emigration.

Government officers, but | did see it
stated in an Eastern newspaper, which
fell IN my hands in the early spring OF
1851, that they estimated that five thou
sand emigrants had died on the plains,
and that the loss of property, consisting
OF horses, mules and oxen, which had
died, and wagons that had been aban-
doned and afterward used for camp-fires,
amounted to over one-half million dol
lars.
1T was the knowledge of these facts,
coupled with desire to, as far as posi-
BILE, make amends for the negligence OF
the General Government, which impelled
Governor Bigler. in his first message to
the California Legislature of 1851 So, TO
recommend that they make an appropri-
alton out of the State Treasury sufficient
to equip and send out relief party 70
meet the incoming emigrants in the fall
Of 1852. This the Legislature readily did,
and placed the funds in the hands of the
Governor for that purpose, and the Gov
ernor appointed General ]. w. Denver,
who was then Secretary of State, to at
tend to the purchasing and distributing
OF these supplies, all of which he did.
lit was these humane efforts on the
part of Governor Bigler and General
Denver which Mr.. Gilbert, editor of the
San Francisco 4 Ito, saw fit to so severely
criticise that it led to the unfortunate duel
between Denver and Gilbert, in which
the latter lost his life,D

Captain Sam in Quest of a Thief-His
Idea of Justice.
The well-known Pluto Indian chief,
Captain Sam" reported at the police
station yesterday afternoon that an old
woman, member of his tribe, had been
robbed at the depot by white man.
She, with others, had just come in from
the hop-felds and was the happy pos
SCISSOR of 81, which she no doubt intended
to invest in bright-colored ribbons, hand
kerchief and other gewgaws. AS she
was walking away from the depot she
accidentally dropped the precious coins
of the paleface, and villain ran up,
pushed her aside, gathered up the money
and made off with it.
Special Officer Greer volunteered to aid
Captain Sam, who summoned several of
his trusty braves, and they started out in
quest of the bad white man and the 81.
AT last accounts Greer and the braves
were on a hot trail, and thought they had
the thief located. Captain Sam said if he
canght him his scalp might be found
hanging in front of the ''police-house, -
but he wouldn't make trouble to put the
man in jail"
