THE MONEY PANIC.
BY DU. J. HAYNES.
The panic grows. and language flows,
And fiercer is the strife ;
The money vault is much at fault,
The main-spring of our life!
What shall we do, when all fall through,
And cash gives up the ghost ?
When millionares and ladies fair
Attend the fun'ral host!
All standing still—the loom and mill—
It really pierces through !
The people grin without the “ tin ”
Their noses turning blue!
There’s nought to (ill a chiukless till—
The Merchant waits in hope.
And argues well but cannot sell—
The Firms and Hanks are broke!
It's so funny without money—
Quite a serious joke,
When none will lend and Hanks suspend,
And due-bills at you poke !
Wc strut the town, fly up and down,
At night we scratch our head ;
Rise in the morn—look quite forlorn--
Possessing “ nary rod.”
It’s really strange we have no change
Therefore no change can make ;
Will some arrange to make some change
That we some change may take?
We see the end—al! must suspend,
Wo don't mean hy the neck !
Though ’twould l»e right for those who might
Have saved the general wreck !
We much regret—we’re all In debt
We must go up the “ spout”—
Insolvent all, as due-bills fall,
While Commerce has the gout!
Will some bring on Circulation.
That Money’s pulse may l»eat!
Some nostrum find to ease the mind,
And curt* from head to feet.
The Camels.— These useful animals, under
■charge of Lieut Beale, left San Antonio, carry
ing the larger portion of the grain for the ten
teams of mules in the ezpediton ; the regular
park camel carrying a load of one thousand
pounds, making an average of four miles an
hour, without suffering the least inconveni
ence. The old idea that these animals cannot
■swim, was refuted in the passage of the Rio
Colorado, near the Mohave village, which the
expedition crossed the latter part of October.
The experiment was made hy Lieut Beale
leading one of the large pack animals into the
river, who, as soon as he was driven in be
yond his depth, took to the water “ like a
•duck,” and the rest crossed in batches of five
and six. The success of the experiment of the
introduction of camels on the plains, has been
fully demonstrated, and they prove invaluable.
flow to be Happy.— We are in a very beau,
tiful world; there is beauty everywhere, and
we can find much happiness on this earth,
when we grow wise enough to know in what
pure happiness consists. Even small hoys or
girls can make themselves very happy by en
deavoring to render others comfortable and
‘happy. Are any of your acquaintances sick
•or lame, or unhappy ? Take a hook, a boquet
of flowers, a basket of fruit, or whatever may
come to hand, go to them, speak kindly, read
them a pleasant story, cause them to forget
-their discomfort, and you will, in so doing,
without being aware of it, very much augment
your own enjoyment, while you at least cause
them to forget their unhappiness.

Politeness. —The sham gentleman and holy
do not know that politeness is tho legitimate
result of good nature and good sense; and that
it is, therefore, wholly distinct from any facti

or talent. Many a nobleman is less polite
than a plowman; many a millionaire, and
many an artist might take lessons in politeness
of a laboring man. At a superficial glance,
education seems to make the distinction ; but
education only modifies our nature, and the
inherent vulgar (that is, the ill-natured and
stupid,) when off their guard, drop the mask
that a little schooling and worldly training put
on them, and display their true selfishness of
character.

HORNITOS, MARIPOSA COUNTY, CALIFORNIA, THURSDAY MORNING, DECEMBER 24, 1857.
TAIII.B M(ir\TAIV—TIOL.I'MJiE COUSTV.
A correspondent of the Columbia Courier ,
gives the following history of the company
which first conceived the plan of getting at
the treasure in this mountain, and which we
cite as an evidence of success which rewards
perseverance:
Early in the month of May, and in the
spring of 1862, one of the members of what
is now known as the “Jamestown, or Oliver’s
Tunnel,” conceived the idea that scoria, or
conglomerate of which the mountain was com
posed could only have attained its present po
sition in a liquid state—that it must have had
a channel to circumscribe its bounds, and that
this channel, which he supposed to be the
original bed of the Stanislaus river, must be
the deposit of immense supplies of gold. Ac
cordingly, a company was formed, composed
of Allen Oliver, John Oliver, James 1). Lyon,
Robert Darling, and two brothers by the name
of Stanfield. These gentlemen, amidst the
derision of the multitude, commenced the la
borious work of tunneling into Table Moun
tain, as before stated, in May, 1862, and at a
period far in advance of similar enterprises in
the southern mines. At this time, they called
for a meeting of the miners in the vicinity, for
the purpose of forming laws regulating mining
operations in the mountain; but failing in
this, they were told to “go ahead! that they
were welcome to the benefits of the entire
mountain.” The latter three of the company,
growing dissatisfied, sold out their claims; but
the remaining number, not at all dispirited,
and being reinforced, with additional help,
prosecuted their enterprise, with the philoso
phic assurance of men who understood what
they were doing. In one year from the com
mencement of the work, under the cognomen
of the “ Experimental Tunnel C 0.,” these men
had driven a tunnel entirely through the con
glomerate and 41 rim rock ” of the channel,
of the original stream, a distance of 900 feet,
where they obtained gravel and a little gold.
But finding their position too high to enable
them to reach the bed of the channel, and
having demonstrated the proof of their theory,
they immediately commenced another tunnel,
thirty feet lower than the first. In the mean
time, the Scraperville Tunnel Co. had com
menced similar operations in the west or south
side of the mountain, which company was the
only one associated in (he enterprise, up to
the fall of 1851. In November of this year,
Avant and others commenced, the High Point
Tunnel, a little below the Experimental, or, as
it is now called, the Jamestown Tunnel.
By this time, public attention commenced
its diversion in favor of the Table Mountain
mines; and in the month of January, 1855, it
broke out into a general excitement, such as is
seldom equaled, even in the experience of Cal
ifornia miners. Immense mass meetings were
now held, and laws were adopted, regulating
and limiting the rights of each miner. It was
at this period that the fabulous story of a
soap mine discovery was circulated; following
which, the blue mass mountain was said to
have been found in El Dorado county, as well
as the castor oil spring, in another part of the
State, which latter, the wise said, was pre
pared by nature to “ work off” the blue mass.
Although digressing a little from the subject,
these discoveries formed a theme for wise and
learned disquisitions in various parts of the
foreign and literary world. The oil, however,
proved effectual in producing a climax to the
infection, by working them all off together.
To return to the pioneers of the Table
Mountain enterprise, I need ordy say, in con
clusion, that in May, 1854, they formed a joint
stock company, with a capital of $150,000, un
der which regulations they vigorously contin
ued the work of excavation. At the mass
meeting of January, 1855, their claim was pre
scribed within the limits of 4500 feet in length
and extending in width, as it is called, from
“ lava to lava.”
The indefatigable company is worthy of all
commendation ; first, for the knowledge and
judgment displayed in the location of their
claims; and secondly, for the energy and per
severance exhibited in the continuance of their
work under the utmost hardships and difficul
ties, For, w hen it is borne in mind that the
work was executed at gieat expense and hard
labor, and that the company realised nothing
from the products of their labor until the
spring of 1867 —a period of five years—it must
be confessed that they justly rank among the
first of California’s enterprising sons, and that
they richly merit what they now see before
them—a handsome fortune.
Numerous tunnels, drifts and shafts are to
be seen running through and sinking into their
claims in various places. The length of tun
neling, putting all together, apart from many
feet of “ breaslings,” amount to 8300 feet, av
eraging from four to six feet in size. Fifteen
hundred feet of ibis was so intensely hard as
utterly to resist the progress of the pick and
shovel, and was only effected by blasting; and
the entire work, correctly estimated, has been
at a cost, in labor and capital, of over SIOO,OOO.
ur In one* of the engagements during the
war in Egypt, one of the enemy, falling into
the power of a Highland sergeant, screamed
out the only English word he was master oP—
“Quarter! Quarter!” “ I*ll no hae time to
quarter ye the noo,” replied Donald, “ I’ll just
cut ye in twa!”
"THE UNION AND ITS GOVERNMENT
A Hard-shell.' —A traveler called at night
fall at a farmer’s house—the owner being from
home, and the mother and daughter being
alone, they refused to lodge the wayfarer.
“ How far, then,” said he, “to a house where
a preacher can get lodgings ?” “ Oh, if you
arc a preacher,” said the lady, “ you can stay
here.” Accordingly, he dismounted. He de
posited his saddlebags on the porch, and led
his horse to the stable. Meanwhile the moth
er and daughter were debating the point as to
what kind of a preacher ho was. “He cannot
be a Presbyterian,” said the one, “ for he is
not well dressed enough.” “He is not a Me
thodist,” said the other, “ for his coat is not the
right cut for a Methodist.” “If I could find
his hymn hook,” said the daughter, “ I could
tell what kind of a preacher he is.” And with
that she thrust her hand into the saddlebags,
and, pulling out a flask of liquor, she ex
claimed, “ La! mother, he’s a Hard-shell Bap
tist ! ” _
It am so.—“ I hab always in my life,” says
a darkey lecturer, “ found do gala to be fust in
lub, fust in de dance, and do fust in de ice
cream saloon, and de fust, best and de last in
de sick room. What would we poor debbils
do widout dem ? Let us he born as young, ns

wid doe nuts and apples as we start to school,
and licks us when we tear our trousers.
Well Tirned. —ln a certain hotel not far
from here, there is employed a bar tender,
who is in the habit of taking his “ tod ” pretty
freely, hut always makes it a point never to
drink in the presence of his employer. A few
days ago, while he was in the act of drawing
his “ tod,” preparatory to taking a drink, the
employer came into the bar-room rather unex
pectedly. Finding himself caught in the act,
he set the tumbler and its contents on the
counter, and casting his eyes around, with a
look of surprise, exclaimed : “ Where in thun
der did the man that ordered this drink go
to?”
Philosophy. —** First class in oriental phil
osophy will stand up. Tibhits, what is life I”
“ Life consists of money, a horse, and a fash
ionable wife.” “ Good ! Next—what is death ?”
“ A paymaster who settles everybody’s debts
and gives them tombstones aa receipts in full
of all demands.” “ What is poverty I” “ The
reward of merit that Genius generally receives
from a discriminating public.”
Rain of Lizards. —The Leßoy (N. Y.) pa
per stales that during a heavy rain, live liz
ards, some of them measuring four inches in
length, came from the clouds like manna,
though neither as plenty or half at welcome.
They were found crawling on the sidewalks
and in the streets, like fugitive infantile alliga
tors, in places far removed from localities
where they inhabit.
Gold Discovery. — News from Detroit says
that considerable excitement was lately crea
ted at Ontonagon, Michigan, by the arrival of
a party of Indians from the head waters of the
Menomonee river, bringing with them some
remarkably rich specimens of gold-bearing
quartz. They represented that the country
was rich with the same species of mineral.

It is a very common thing to abuse
