1 am at las' in the gold region, and wil ;
ttenipt a description of my tedious journey
etc. We arrived at Stockton after a f.:ir

re crossed an arid plain of 32 miles?no I i
eget3iion.no sliade.no water, except what j >
re carried with us, and one ol the hottest I
avs I ever experienced. After taking on ?
ur hacks some fiO or 70 pounds, and filling '
little keg with water, some fifteen of us i <
larled in company. The first day we start '
d we made ahoul 13 miles and then laid '>
own to rest our exhausted frames on the '
round, with but a single blanket each li>r ?
ir covering. The second day we travelled I
nit five miles in the morning and five or six 1
i the evening. This day a man bv the 1
nine of 1 iuiii, from Massachusetts, gave t
ui and could go no lurlher. As lie whs out '
f water I lei linn wet his hps with mine, <
nd sonic others did the same, but nil we '
on Id do to revive him proved unavailing. |
le was determined to die. and we, to save I
ur own lives, were obliged to leave him f
s oer stork ol water was getting vorv short.
Ve had some 12 or 15 miles to travel h-Torr '

wo connect our happiness with t.hcir virtue.
'J'liis. therefore, is a law of eternal justice? 'h
man cannot degrade woman without him- n<
so|f falling into the degradation; lie cannot to
raise her without becoming better. Lot us w
cast our eves over the globe, and observe the in
two ?reat divisions of the human race, the ts
east aiid west. One half of the ancient ar
world remain without progress, without gr
thought, and under the load of barbarous dt
civilization; women there are slaves. The he
other half advances tow ards freedom, light a
and happiness: the women there are loved to
and honored. Never shrink from a woman r:f
of strong sense. If she becomes attached to
to von. it wil bee from seeing and valuing 01
similar qualities in y tirsclf. You may trust se
her. for she knows tt?o value oi vonr conn- cr
deuce. You may consult Iter, for she is
al?lc to advise, and does so at once with the
firmness and reason ami the consideration of '
affection. Nor love will he Inst?n<i. for it pr
will not have hern slightly won: it will be ac

Timidity?Apprehension?Fear.?The
overb is old, but not less raluabl on that
'count, that "a faint heart never won 3 fair
tly." True; and more than that a faint
mrt never won "anything else" of value:
ir is it like'y that it ever will, unless the
ws o| nature he rlrangod. by a revulsion
id remndeling-of the moral constitution of
uinated nature.
i inudity is the bane of enterprise in genal,
and in the sphere of business in particir
Though opposed to rash and hasty ac11,
it is an injurious ingredient in the tnerutile
character, unless it be associated
ith a wise and prudent forecast. In this
-ociation it ceases to bo timidity per se,
d becomes harmless, if not oonscrvao.
The day of "jog trot," in every sphere of
man Jilt? and business, has gone by;the
no oi slow moticii has retired into the
here ni the past. The intelligent part of
cation think fast, and net accordingly,
en eat and drink, cogitate and write, read
?! relied, and in fact perform all the functus
npperta inng to their condition with the 1
. od of the railroad locomotive. Even 11a
nsand "jxmplo, kindreds and tongues,"
bes provinces and colonics, perpetuate
volutions, establish new governments, and
ule new countries, with a suddenness and
criiy of expedition, to which no portion of
i pa-l liistmy of the world can even 1
ein to furnish anything approaching to the
aracter of a parallel.
Instances are in proof all the world over,
lenly as Ma< kborncs in Autumn," espc
illy in Europe, i.tit take the California
terprise, what woul 1 have become of this,
d timidity nrled the house," and been per- 1
ited to throw "a wet blanket" upon the
lor of the Pilgrims of the Pacific? Willit
the agency of anything but their own innotable
energy, assisted by the improved
ans of locomotion, by sea and by land peliar
to the age, they reach California in a 1
smaller number ut' wrens than that of the 1
irs spent by the Israelites in going from
rypt to the Laud of Canaan, under the '
call rare, guidance and protection ol the
>d of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.
At tins period then, in the world's pro:s-\
timidity in cuicrprisc is tantamount, 1
neraliy, to death to the hope of success. 1
uikuco, however, compounded of caution 1
tl wisdom ol skill and experience, is neees- '
v to tiio successful consummation ol all
iterprises of pitli and moment," especially J 1
the world of business, w here the spirit ot j

UIURLFSTON COTTO* FACTORY.? Wc
learn that this Company has introduced the
Gas Pipes into their building, and on Saturday
evening last mads (he first exhibition
of its effects. The brilliantly illumined edifice.
throwing onf floods of Ii?jht from its numerous
windows, produced quite a sensation
among the inhabitants of Ham?tead ;md
drew forth bevvs of spectators, among them
not a light sprinkling of the faif sex, to admire
the illumination.
We mentioned yesterday that specimens
of the "drillings, sheetings and shirtings " of
the Graniteville Company took the first premium
at the Franklin Institute, al Philadelphia.
It escaped our eye, or we should
have at the same time noticed that the 7-9th
shirliigof the Charleston Factory were also
awarded a premium at the same exhibition,.
and are spoken of for heaviness, smoothness
and closeness of texture, as being'of a quality
that will safely compare with any manufactured
in New England. It is well re- marked
by the Philadelphia paper that es
tahlwhment of cotton factories " is a happy
omen fi^r South Carolina." Who would
nave ventured to predict, a few years since
that Carolina would ml only export .Iroin
her yfiort.-a the staple of her soil in the maim- .
facturerl stale, but boldly and successfully
enter into competition at an exhibition where
the very best goods of that kind were- produced.
from manufactures having many
years experience, and all the facilities of new
inventions and improved manchinery ?
Courier'
Chivese Burial Place.?No people pos-.
sens so much veneration for the memory of
their fathers as the Chinese; and the worship
of their tombs is by far the most solemn
an i nppearrntlv sincere ceremonial in the
shape of religions worship they exhibit.. In
order to perform Its rights, men (women take
no part tn it) who emigrate to distant lands
ottcri return, at much expense and trouble,
lo the place of their birth; and their fond
clinging to the memory of the dead; nv?re
than love for its institutions; is said to be the
strong bond that binds the Chinese to their
country. But they have no consecrated
place of interment, and if they have any rite analogous
to episcopal consecration, it must
be so simple and easily executed as to have
effect anywhere. At any rate, thev have no
accumulation of graves in partiru'ar inclosed
spots; they do not set apart a few acres for
that purpose, and surround them with walls,
separating the silent tenants from the living
world, and forming a great prison-house for
the dead. On the oilier hnnd, everyone
rhoscs the spot he likes best for the final rest,
ing place of those he best loved. The country
residents burv their dead on their own
land, very often close to their own dwellings.
The tombs are often of porphvrv, finished
with some minute rhiselings, and sometimes
in tolerable monumental taste; placed on
rocky eminences, often in particularly picturesque
situations, under the shadow of
cedars and cypresses.
A Novel Case.?In Fairfield district,.
(S. C.) recently, a inan named Tidwell.'and
an accomplice of the name of Lahon, were
tiled and convicted of abducting and mar.

had been employed as such in the family of
the prosecutor, and it was supposed by some
who heard the evidence, that some prnvorn.
