Public Examination. —There was a public
examination of applicants for certificates to
teach ia the common schools of Butte county,
held in the school house, in Oroville, on Sat
urday, ninth of April. Members of the Board
present—Baac Uplam, County Supcrinten
daut, S W. W. Congbej, Thomas L. Vinton,
and M. B. Potter. The following are the
names of the applicants ; Mrs. Ann C. Moore,
Miss Elizabeth Wilson, MBs Helen Clark. Mr.
A. Wright, U. T. Batcbelder, Arthur G.
Drake, W. Barnes. I). C. Dewitt, Samuel
Comagys. The first seven received certificates.
The examination passed off pleasantly. By
those present, it was considered, that the ap
plicanls, as a class, were the most intelligent
that ever appeared before the Board.
Runaway—Display cf Nerve — On Sun
day last, as Mr. Callowwas about to ascend a
buggy. iu which was sealed a lady, the two
horses attached commenced rearing, and in
Mr. C.'s endeavor to stay them, he was knock
ed down, receiving some severe though not
eenoua injuries, and the horses at full speed
dashed down Pine street. The lady bad the
reins. She did'ul faint—she did'nt do what
Ada Clara says the stage driver gave as a rea
son for excusing her from riding on the outside
with him—but clingiug to the ribbons, she
directed the horses safely till coming to a ditch
—the jolt threw her on the dashboard and
jerked the reins fiom her hands. Fortunately
in falling, they got entangled in the wheel, and
a few more revolutions brought the runaways
up with a round luru iu safely.
The Flora of Oroville. — Nothing con
tributes more to the delight of the senses than
the presence of rich and varied foliagc;nothing
imparls so homelike au aspect to a residence
as to see it surrounded with the flora! bounties
of tree and flower. There can be no more re
fined exhibition of taste, no more d dehtful
occupation, no greater benefaction to humanity
than to plant and cherish and watch and
rejoice, as w ith almost a leap under our ardent
sky.Thc germ bursts and flourishes at once into
perfection and beauty Uur town seem- pern
liarly favored in ibis respect. Scarcely a
dwelling but is buried in a thicket of shrub
bery—ruses and honey suckles. Trer sot sev
eral years growth margin our more retired
streets. The court house square i- a patterre
rich iua luxuriant growth of clover.and weep
ing willows and locusts intersperse the space,
and complete the attractions of the spot.
Fire. — A stable belonging to Mr. Bristol.
between Bird and Montgomery, and below Oak
street, some distance above the Ditch, caught
fire, i arly last evening, and was consumed in a
few minutes. There were eight or r.iue hors- s
in the stable, but they were rescued before the
fire had made much progre-ss. and nothing but
a small amount ol hay was burned with the
stable. Fortunately, no wind prevailed at the
time, or the frame dwellings adjoining would
certainly have taken fire, ai d a general confla
gration might have followed. Mr. Bristol de
sires us to express his gratitude to out citizens
who were on the ground and earnestly endeav
oring to save his property.
Reopening it Old Quartz Ledges.— Par
ties are busily engaged over in Oregon Gulch
and Cherokee iu reopening old quartz ledges,
abandoned some years since through lack of
facilities iu working and the ine. mpleteiuss of
machinery. J. MeKinstrv Smith is engaged
upon his old ledge, and shipped last week the
machinery fora iiaw mill. It will be remem
bered that Cherokee and Oregon Gulch a lew
years since contributed largely to the wealth
of the country, and it is confidently expected
that they will sh rtly r sume tb ir f
contributions.

Note of inquire received with compliments in
fitting shape to the office. Glad to see that
yon recognise and have acted npoc the great
truth that an oracular utterance. like justice,
to be of value must be purchased. You inquire
the source of inspiration. The character of
the compliment acknowledged may be a covert
insinuation that these columns owe their bril
liancy to such a source. We acknowledge the
impeachment. Cut to the point. Byron
confesses bis obligation to |t;cbiedair. Colridge
and Be tjaincey to opium. We to Barberry
wine (continue, George). But indeed, as
you will perceive by these exalted instances,
the stimuli employed are diverse, and owe their
efficacy to constitutional peculiarities in the
individual. We have taken under advisement
your proposition as to the epithalaraium, and
digested the subject and find that justice can
not be done in less than twenty two cantos of
the Spencerian measure. You had better call
and arrange for a supplemental issue of our
paper when matters are perfected.
Photography.— When fifteen years ago the
art of Daugerre discovered the mysterious
virtue of iodine to fasten upon a silver surface
the image transmitted through the camera, it
was supposed that the resources of the art had
been exhausted, that the ultima Ihulc had been
reached. How little thought of then would
have been the successive improvements which
have conducted us from the crude picture vis
able only in a particular light, step by step
through all the various stages of mclaenotype,
ambrolype, Photograph, till at last magnified
by the solar instrument the human face in full
proportion, skilfully retouched excels in EJeli
ty even the closest imitation of the best mat
ters. We arc fed to these reflections by ob
serving some rcaily admirable specimens of
photographic portraits, iu a window on Mont
gomery street. The retouching has been so
well executed that each figure stems to stand
out iu relief, and the lights and shades are so
judiciously distributed, as to make the illusion
almost perfect, and one fancies himself ns a
u< w ith the original. The specimens certainly
vie with the best iu San Francisco. Mr. Wil
bur is the artist ai d we are proud to place his
merits a« a provincial side by side w ith the
best in the metropolis.

a pleasant call from General John Cidwell, of
Chico. Cutte county, one of the earliest of our
pioneers, dating years before '49. Gen. C.
reports copious rains, crops greatly bcnefitled,
wheat looks well, hopeful, will be a fair crop.
Hay is short in that region, other vegetation
look well and promises well. General Cidwell
is one o f our best farmers. His farm is a model
farm, only the best implements are used, and
with the best workmen. The work is always
done at the right time, and well done. The

Letter from the Mountains.
Rock Creek, April 6.
Mr. Editor ‘-Good news at borne !”—for
the last week it has been storming. We have
had one of the best snow storms of the season.
and we have now over two feet of solid, com
pact snow Ivins; here: up at “Mike’s diggings”
there arc some four feet. Every one is busy,
taking advantage of the water. At Ivimshew,
the snow is about three feet deep. Although
we are about the same altitude, the latter place
is more bleak and exposed, consequently they
have a little more snow. There is quite a
stampede into Ivimshew, and times will be busy
and lively there. I think the present snow
••ught to supply us with a month’s washing, at
the least. We all know that

grass and some early Sowers were peeping out
from their long winter’s sleep, and even some
foolish little birds had commenced to build their
nests—when, presto here we have a good old
fashioned snow storm, and everything is
changed. Bui, as those sudden changes have
been for our benefit, we are thankful for them.
I was down below, lately, ami was glad to
see the improvements being made in the

I might add, Joe Willet lias built u good, sub

A SIKJIOS AUAIXST THE UsE OE TOBACCO. —
A lady, whose refined sensibilities are offended
by the association of those inveterate chokers
and smewers who puff their smoke and squirt
their saliva everywhere and on all occasions,
and who takes no pains to conceal her repug
nance to these filthy practices, has requested us
to print the following extract from a sermon
of Henry Ward Beecher in reference to the
use of -the weed -I must be permitted to
specialize still another danger from the general
bead of dissipation—one that you are cot ac
customed to hear aposen of in the pulpit. I
mean the danger of using tobacco Do not
think that I propose to deliver an indiscriminate
tirade of abuse against this practice. I wish
to speak moderately, and to give the result of
my reflections founded upon much observation.
I do not deny that there are many tempera
meuis that stem to be able to nse tobacco ail
their life long with comparatively little incon
venience—to themselves. I do not mean that
every young man who addicts himself to chew
ing or smoking will of necessity take on other
vices, or let his habit run to excess. Bat we
are a r.ervcus people. Everything in the econ
omy of our society tends to develop the brain
and the nervous system unduly. Now, as a
matter of fact, it is true that among such a
people smoking is apt to lead to thirst aid
drinking. Not always, not necessari'y; bet
frequently, and naturally. The cup and the
cigar are well acquainted with each other. The
use of tobacco always tends to waste the nerve
force and the brain force; and in thousands of
cases there can be no question but that it
squanders life by leakage right from the center.
And you do not know whether yon are the one
in live that will be poisoned and prematurely
destroyed, or not. If there was one single
reason for this habit, there might be some ex
cuse for those that indulge in it, but it is a
thing w hich is utterly without any reason what
ever. Yon have to make superhuman exertions
in the first instance, to persuade yourselves to
touch tobacco. It would seem as if God, when
he made that weed. said. I invoke all spirits of
t ausea and nastiness to s'ar.d around about and
defend it from any touch." For, it seems to
raa that, if anything would be secure from
human meddling, tha? would. It is repugnant
to every feeliug. I'he whole ca'ure revolts
from it. \on are not drawn to it by anything
that is in you or in it. Not one single element
of health does it give you: and the pleasure
that is derived from its use is, in the main,
illusive pleasure. And such is the effect of it
as a poison upon many constitutions, that the
struggle of breaking away from it is next only
to the struggle of breaking away from the cup.
And it has led many and many a youth to the
cup. If you have but.just begun to smoke, a=k
V 'irselvea what earthly good it will do vou ;
at d if you fail as you will, to find a good excuse
for continuing the habit, leave it off. If vou
chew and smoke, your misery is double: and if
you do but one. do not try to cure yourselves
by doing the other ; for you will end in doing
b ofa. On grounds of simple common sense. I
a-k every young man in this congregation who
is addicted lq the unwholesome practice of
smoking or chewing. Is it worth your while to
spend your means, and to entail upon vourselves
an unnecessary expense, for the sake of keeping
up a habit that incommodes others, that annovs
those about you, that w ill probably have a had
inf,mnee upon your health, and that will pcssi
bly injure your morals? While 1 would not
seem to be extravagant, I cannot fail to give a
solemn and affectionate warning to the young
people of my charge on this subject. If you
have not learned to nse tobacco in any form, 1
beseech of yon. abstain from it. The young often
acquire the habit becaus, they feel that it will
be a distinction. No; unfortunately, smoking
is so common that it is not a distinction. If you
wish to have a distinction, refrain from smoking;
that will make you rather remarkable.”
