ONSbflVTISM OF THE STATE Or JUAIiNL;. Gorrffior IJuribarJ of JUainp, deliver- eJ bis ItKjug bral Address on Mqnday. Th GttVefilor commences his address ,jth a discussion of national policies and ndrVicuf'y of the compromise measures of the list Congress. He thinks hat the 'final ndjustnrient made was not iiuch as either party had desired, but the most sat! isfactory Jto bothwhich, under the circum- StanCfsCcou,u uuiamcM. igivcs Ills Yjf sa(Jcngt h on the question oTtfoe 'high j, av,';mncl jn this connexion holds the following language : M nTore dangerous doctrine wps nev it advanced.! It would be subversive a likc toHII society and all government. Our Institutions are founded on the right of the majority to controP. limited and re- trained bv tbe provisions of the constitu- d tion. . Evcfry Government must havq some controlling power and will; vyithout which, government could npt exist. The controlling will of ours is the voice of the mjorit$. manifested through the ballot box. livery man is allowed to entertain his own opinions, to promulgate and en force thijm upon the convictions of others. Every rfeeasure of Government he has an unquestioned right to canvass tnd discuss .-by argument, by invective, by Yidicule, tp render it odious, if he can, to the pow ef'whojnav modify or abrogate it at their pleasure. Hut when he goes one step furtWW claims the right to determine forhinwlf. whether he will obey the law, Vr rrs :t Hs execution, he claims that Vhich io Government can concede and Nt ; lie Would exercise a power which would subvert all government. When he counsrfkor incites to the violation or dis obediece of a law, he is guilty of treason against the very spirit ot republicanism." 1 i We ar'pulll'fing here, for rain.

Sup. pose a bank flooded the country with irredeem. able paper without auihorily of its charter would this be an evil ? The Bible I hold is the charier of man's moral government, and " whoever shall add to, or take away from ihe words of ihfs book, Cod will take away his part out of ihe Book of Life." He who sets up a standard of morals more sublime lhan the example and teachings ol ChrisJ and ihe Apostles should produce his' credentials. Arrogance will not do, for it is not wisdom, assumption will not do, lor it is not proof. Every one admits ihe evils of intemperance, but ihe ..antidote may be worse than the poison, If it is one of tho moral .teachings of the Sons to justify attacks on the characters of persons who stand high in Church and Slate, or even Ihe most humble, arid bring ihe moral machine: ry of the Order to bear against ihem without an opportunity to confront these accusers, then I am glad I am free from such morality.

I New York, May 22, 1851 Enclosed herewith I send . you ah extract Ironia California letter, received by me to day per ateamer Ohio, which arrived early this morning. Valley Forge, Deer Creek, March 24th, 1851. pear S.-Here I am snugly ensconsed in tho "Old Cabin" right side up. It' raining Great Guns out side and has been for the last lour days. I expect the wet season has just set: in: it has been very pleasant most of the winter. We've had but little rain, so there has been but little work in the mines. I I've not made my board this winter ; I took a trip down to Frisco to see if luck woold'nt turn, and to get liters ; but I hadn't luck in either. I should have gone up north long ago, if we could have som our provisions ; but it's lucky we did'nt, for we should have had a tough limeof it.cer tainfor there has been some bard old snow storms ihere, and ihe miners have suffered he. yond account ; some have perished I regret to say, and others are putting back. The" snow it . . is from4to20 feet deep: three of us have bought some claims on a Bar here in the valley!5 We've not washed any, can't tell how they'll open : we have to throw off from 5 to 12 feet of lop dirt or. sand before we get to wasn dirt that is from 2 to 3 feet deep. Miners are not doing much in the way of ore. Provisions are cheap: Flour sells at 14 cts. ; Pork 25; Po. tatoes 14 ; Butter 75 ; Cheese 75 ; Pickles in H gals, jars or bottle .$1 50 ; Oysters, Clams and Lobsters in quart cans $1 50. We in. dulged in all such doings, we do. Rubber Boots sell from 8 to 10 dollars according to length. Leather Boots from-$2 to $20. Cloth ing about double what it does at home. A man can live well for six bits, or 75 cts. a day. They call a York shilling a bit here. Nevada was burnt, but is built up again : the Yankees can't be beat. L offered me S100 per month, to slop with him, hut I thought I would try my luck once more at mining: I want to make $500 before I leave, and lhat wijl he be. fore many months, I hope. I want lo go home and have a good time and come haek again. I think- luck will turn, by so doing ; I( think ihere is not a man in ihe mines that came in when I did, that has worked as many days as I have, still I've had no luck, and am not wholly dis eouraged by it, though I've, had every reason to be ; but it never will dn tn rrlva it c. All that kept me from being totally discoura. ed is the thought of our dear parents. I was in hopes I should have struck it higsoas to have put them where they justly belong. Lord love their dear souls, there is scarcely an hour even when I'm in ihe pit up to my knees in mud and water but what I think ol ihem and the rest of the family. By ihe way I had a sweet dream last night of mother, and the way I hugged andkissed her was loving, certain but "Pdid lots of erying. I don't know what for though: r I II I i . . ... r b "r olJ.

I don't want to see Panama aain. I had a jam up time at San Fran for a few days. I lived on the generosity of Norton and Livermore. They showed me e.very attention, bad as I looked. They are both bloods, true as you are born. May their never be Ie I never shall forget my feelings at ihe time I arrived in Sac City out of the hills, every thing looked like what il does to a wild Indian. I had a notion of putting right straight back into the mountains again, and should, if my feet had not been so sore from walking. Talk about your Broadway swells ! ihey don't begin with some I saw below, in San Frflncisco. Take a covey as I was 14 months in the mines, with hair all over my face, and a rusty suit on down there among civilized people, it makes him think of home, " thai is my home in the moun. tains," but I was as good as any of them, I thought,. so kept my head up. At Liver more's ranch I had the luck to sit at the table with some feminines ! married ones though. They looked at me as though they did not like Ihe cut of my jib. But my appetite was too good lo leave ihe table on their account. Then was the time. I thought of the Galls I left be- j hind me. I've no room to dwell on items, suf fice it to say, San Fran is as-) good a city as I want to live in.

EAGLE MJLLLST May 14, 1851. r 'l HERE is a fair prospect of a Company of North--- em Mechanics and Manufacturers settling on the Eagle or South Eagle Tract. The South Eagle Tract is adjoining the Eagle, on both of which' is a splendid water power of great force. I have a beautiful piece of Land in the South Eagle Tract which I propoe to lay off in small lots of one fourth of an acre each, for the ac commodation of Merchants, Doctors, and Mechanics. All such persons would do well lo give this rising place due attention. "-There is a tide in the affairs of, men Wiich, taken at its flood, j Leqrds on to" happiness and wealth. Here is a chance. Capitalists would also do well to look this way. I need a little help to carry on more suc cessfully, the enterprises in which I am engaged and on which I propose to enter. I am steadily progressing, however, though slowly, with my original schemes, To wit: the erection of Factories for spinning cotton and wool, and for calico printing. But as advance the prospect opens up, and invites to larger and more fruitful fields. This location for manil f;lCI !1 rmcr niimrc nnd fnr a i own, is very tavorahle. It is near enough to the great Central Rail Road, and in a very healthy region of Country. I will sell lots privately on the most favorable terms to suit purchasers. The water fower on the South Eagle Tract, is immense, and capable of driving almost any amount of Machinery. Early applications either for Ipts or an interest in the piesent or proposed enterprises will receive the most favorable offers 3m4 ANDR EWJ? AGGARLY.

The IVORY DAGUERREOTYPES are the plain est and most distinct pictures evr r made, bavin- a mos beautiful straw colored back ground, which does not act as a mirrior like lhe old style, but most closely re sembles ivory. The chemical process is p ntirely dr ent from the ordinary daguerreotype, and the disroverv made use ot, is a discovery original with us. The fol lowing unsolicited notice from the Greensboro' Patriot is a just tribute to the merits of the new di-roverv "SUPERIOR DAGUERREOTYPES." ' It has been the prime fault of all the darfrrPn. type pictures we have heretofore seen, that the back ground presents a glossy appearance, disagreeable to lhe eye, and rendering the picture difficult to be seen dis tinctly except in certain points of view. Rut within the last few days we have seen several specimens of a reat improvement in this particular, as practiced by" Or Weeks, who has been for nearly three months pursuin the art in this place, fie is producing pictures with the back ground deadened to a crramy or pearl-like ap pearance, the glossy or relieving quality of which is almost entirely destroyed. The consequence i that the picture itself stands oat, well defined in out-line, and almost as distinct in appearance as if painted on white paper or ivory." f Mav 22, lb.-,i3 THETmTFLAGl Salisbury, April 3, 1851.
