Noah "Webster.
letter to young men.
I wish every young man in the land
would read carefully the "Memoir of the
tVuthor pre faxed to Y ebater s L nabndged
Dictionary. Do the young men do any
of us ever stop to think what a wonder-
lul mau ISoah Webster was, and how
much good he accomplished, not only
for his own country, but for all who speak
and w ute the English language? Twenty
years did he give for the accomplishment
of this great work, which required the
most constant ami persevering effort.
He turned untoward circumstances and
disappointments to account; for he lived
in a time unprecedented lor hardness,
and unpromising as far as literary work
was concerned, only to those who pos
sessed the calmest determination and
most unflinching energy. He was im
pressed into the service of the American
revolution in the midst of his collecre
course at Yale, but he graduated at the
age of twenty, 1778. He had not the
means to pursue the study of law, his
chosen profession. His portion from his
father, received at this time, was eight
dollars Continental currency,worth about
four in silver. The country was in a de
plorable state for business of any kind
most especially for the pursuit he had,
chosen. He taught a school in Westford,
Conn., and at the same time pursued the
study of the law without an instructor,
and in two years was admitted to the
practice. In 1872 he taught a classical
school in Goshen, New York, and now
his habit of finding something to do, if
not in the field of his choice, is seen; tor
he commenced a compilation of school
books, the first of the kind published in
the United States. The profits of his
Spelling Book, "at a premium for copy
right ot less than a cent a copy," sup
ported hi family during the twenty years
he was compiling his American Diction
ary. The unsettled state of the times
and country at that period often made
his pen necessary, which was always
wielded for the right, a peace sword for
the nation. He wrote promptly and vig
orously; neglected no domestic duties;
.nd those ot town, county, state and
country, all received a good share ot his
time and labor. No lesser duty was
omitted at plea of a greater. He was as
faithful in the least as the greatest, and
time only adds to his usefulness and
merit; for the centuries multiply his stu
dents and his means of doinj: good. Do
not be appalled, young men, at the mag
uitude of a great undertaking. The pyra
mids stand as monuments of physical
power and mechanism, one of the seven
wonders of the world, but that is all; no
mental or moral good results therefrom;
Dut .Noah ebster has enlarged the bounds
of science in all directions, and while
the world stands this pebble he has
thrown into tho wave will multiply and
widen its circles to the utmost limit of
time. Study the lesson of his life, young
men, and commit yours to great endeav
ors. F. in the Interior.
Badly Frightened. Nearly a cen
tury ago, when daring robbers were as
plentiful in the badly lighted streets of
London and Paris as "sneak thieves" are
in our own brilliantly lighted thorough
fares at the present time, a gentleman
was suddenly stopped, one night, while
passing over Point Neuf, Paris, with a
lantern, by a rough looking man, who
said, presenting a paper, "Read this."
Somewhat startled, the owner of the lan
tern glanced at the dirty scrawl presented
to his notice, and read the following: "If
you speak one word, I shall stab you.
Give me all your valuables, and then run
for your life." Not being a man of much
pluck, the affrighted gentleman gave up
his watch and money, and ran off. He
soon gave the alarm, however, and the
highwayman, taken by surprise, was im
mediately arrested. When accused of
the crime of robbery, he pleaded not
guilty, and presented a plausible defence.
Said he, "I can neither read nor write.
I picked up the pajer just at the moment
I met this gentleman with the lantern.
Thinking it might be of some value, I
politely asked him to read it for me. lie
complied with my request, and presently
handed me his watch and purse, and then
ran off. I supposed the paper to be of
great value to him, and that he thus lib
erally rewarded me for .finding it. He
gave me no time to return thanks, which,
out of politeness, I was ready to jHjrform."
The gentleman, being a little more cred
ulous than victims of the present day,
accepted the plea and withdrew the com
plaint. England Aroused. The London cor
respondent of the Toronto Globe says,
under the title of "Edward the Seventh,"
a booklet was published yesterday by
the authors of "The Coming K ,"
"Don Juan," and "The Siliad." At every
low class bookshop iu London, and in all
the principal streets, by itinerant vendors,
this shilling's worth is on sale.
John Poole, in one of his best plays,
"Dot," adapted from Dickens' "Cricket
on the Hearth," says, in the character of
the poor old toy-maker, "It's as near na
ture as we can come for sixpence," when
he puts spots of black paint on a white
toy-horse.
This brochure is as near treason as the
authors dare come for a shilling. It is a
vulgar attack on the Queen and other
members of the royal family. There is
no disguise in the illustrations, and in the
letter-press such "concealments" as Prifice
Guelpho, Guelphington Palace, Klepto,
Pitz Kam, Kamdux, and so on, for the
Prince of Wales, Kensington Palace, Lord
Derby, Mr. Fitz George, the Duke of
Cambridge, require no great skill to de
cipher. As Richelieu says, "These schemes
are glass, the very sun shines through
them." But the treasonable shilling's
worth has, in forty-eight hours, sold 120,
000 copies.
John B was on trial for felonious
assault with intent to kill. It was in
evidence that the prisoner had struck the
injured man on the head with an iron
bar, and so fractured the skull that a
portion of the brain actually escaped;
yet the man recovered. The only hope
of saving the prisoner from conviction
was to weaken the evidence of Dr. S ,
who attended the wounded man, by
making him contradict himself. This
was undertaken by D , who waa more
remarkable for his impertinence to wit
nesses than for legal ability.
"Now, doctor," said D , "did I un
derstand you to say in your direct testi
mony that Watt's skull was so badly
fractured that the brains actually es
caped from the wound f"
"That was my evidence."
"And do you pretend to say that a mai
could lose a portion of his brains and
still liver'
"Oh, yes," replied the doctor. "I
have known men to live and practice law
without any brains at all."

SAN FRANCISCO MARKET.
The weather for the past week has been
exceedingly variable, heavy storms of enow
and rain have visited the coast, rendering
out-door business impossible, and confining
the trade of both city and country within very
narrow limits. While this is considered a
present disadvantage, the great benefits de
rived are of puch great geueral character to
the whole country in all respects, that we
can well afford the present inconvenience.
We are led to these it-marks by the reports
daily received from all portions of ttie coun
try of cheering crop prospects for the coming
summer; nor are these promises confined to
the crops alone, but are extended equally to
alt mining enterprises, both gold and nilver,
it being generally predicted that all our
native products this year will be largel in
excess of that of any former year.
Dealers in onr native wines report an in
creased and growing demand throughout
the Eastern cities for California wines, thus
showing that our pure article, home made,
Is beginning to be appreciated; the result
is that we shall soon find a market for all our
vine products at profitable rates, and displace
in a great measure the uuulterated foreign
wares. The silver question still remains an
unsolved problem; the present rate of dis
count being 4(l per cent, on half and trade
dollars. We have no improvement to note in
charters. Tonnage is plentiful forall present
requirements and rates are nominally JL''2(S, t'i
5s for wood and iron ships rcsectivcly,
with about 2,000 tons disengaged, and with
a large fleet enroute to this coast there is little
prospect of an improvement.
Advices from Europe give some prospect oi
an advance soon in the price of wheat, al
though rates are the same, as quoted iu our

Competition is tho Life of Trade.
Notwithstanding that San Francisco can
boast of a very liberal supply of Carriage Re
positories and Manufactories, there seems to
le room for stiU more, as evidenced by the
fact that another very formidable competi
tion for the jH.puUr patronage and favor Iihs
recently apeared. We refer to Gallagher's
Cariiage Repository. Mr. Bernard Galla
gher has for many years engaged in the
manufacture of W.'i'gi"n-, Trucks, lras, etc.,
at 222 Mission t. "About a year since he
fretted ou the above premises a line briek
structure at a coM of (25,HM. The building
is 45x137 feet, three stories high, and is now
used as a KopoMtorv of the justly celebrated
-Manuiar-tnres of James Cunningham v rons.
Mr. Gallagher is sole agent for these car
nages upon this eoa-t. which he proposes to
sell at lower rates than any house in San
trancisco w ill sell the same class of work.
All work sold by him will k warranted for
one year, and to be just what it is repre
sented to le. The reputation of the James
Cunninghum & Sons carriages needs no en
dorsement from us. The rapidly increasing
demand for them is their le!-t recommenda
tion. Mr. Gallagher has now en route and to
soon arrive ninety-tive tirt-clas "jobs" of the
latest and most improved styles, consisting
of Buggies, Phaetons, ISarouches, Uockaways,
Brets, ictorines. Coupes, etc., etc., which he
will sell at prices to defy competition. To
those of our readers contemplating the pur
chase of anything in the carriage line, we
would say, emphatically, give Mr. Gallagher a
call, look sit his stock, 'learn his prices, and
you will agree with us that hi boast that he
will sell a better article for less money than
any house upon the coat is not a vain one.
The fact that he owns the premises, and
consequently does not pay an exorbitant
rent, that his manufacturing business ujiou
the same premises is paying him handsomely.
are among the reasons why he can atlord to
undersell the market. We cordially recom
mend him to our readers and refer them to
his advertisement, which will be found
