When Gulten berg, the first pi in tor, was working it) his cell in the monastery of St. Abersgot, he tells us that he heard i two voices address him. The one I bade him desist ; told him the power j his invention would put into the hands I of had men to propagate their wick-- ! t.d .e--. ; told him how men would pro lane the art be had created, and how posterity would Lave cans.; to corse j o':e man who gave, it to the world. So impressed was utixnberg with what he heard, that he took a ham mer Had broke to pieces the types he i;ad solaborloody put together. His v.'oik cf destruction was only stayed bv another voice, sweet and musical, that fell on his ear, teUing him to go on a:j rejoice in his work : tiiat all Good might be made the cause of.( evil, bet that God will bless the right ia the end. So to al! of us stiil eo mo thoao voices that came to Gutteriberg. the one cubing us to work hiio it is called to day, to try to leave this world better than we found it ; and the other tempting us to give over and take our ease, to leave the plow in mid-furrow, and to rest on cur oars when v.e should be pulling against the stream. . 5.a-e-sr- Standard of Charity. Men measure their charity by a peculiar standard. A man who has but a doilar iti his pocket would give a penny for almost any purpose. It he had a hundred dollars he might give one: earrv it Litrher and there comes 7 4. l 9 T .-" "1 1 II a lulling ou. une nunureu woum be considered too large a sura for him who Las ten thousand, while a present cf one thousand would be deemed miraculous from a man worth one hundred thousand yet the proportion is the same through-, cut. and the poor aian's penny, the widow's mUe, is more than the rich man's high-sounding and widely trumpeted benefaction. Commissioners in l.bNK:ut'xev. Each Congressional District is en titled lo one Commissioner in Dank ruptcy under the late law of Con gress. Asher 13. 33at.es?, Samuel S. C'aik, and Jonathan D. Stevenson, better known as the Colonel com manding the regiment that came to this coast in IcbiT, have been ap pointed for the 1st, 2d, and 3d dis tricts respectively, in California. 1c seems rather singular that all three of thu appointments for California should have been virtually from San Francisco. :se Diggings llich pay dirt has i i,n f,,mol within five miles of Iuaho City over the Mountain south of Moore's Creek.

V'e have seen various estimates cf the presoit and prospective popula tion of the United States. Some of these calculations were wide of the mark, and others were r.ot hacked by any good authority. J. Disturcel!, ir. a communication to the N. Evening Post, famishes some facts and figures of interest. By the cen sus report of 18 CO, the organized States and Territories contained 31, -M4.5-n inhabitants- of these i 18,070 were freo colored, and G.O5"2.7G0 were slaves. There were also by estimate, S50,000 Indians retaining t!:e;r tribal character. In a tabular view of the progressive population of the United States, from the original census of 171)0 to 1000, by William Derby, we Had results which, have thus far been most singula! !y verified by the addition of three per cent, per annum from year to year, starting with the last census: iV'or. bi:;i . . iNOi . . 1 "'- . .

Goon Yi:t. One of the streets cf St. Louis, used constat) thy by loaded vehicles, has had the ZSicolso:i Pave- i meat down upon its surface for eight ! years, and it is now in as good condi- f.on as when first laid, except where j it has been disturbed by g..s and ; water companies. Wo have never j felt like taking back one word we have said in favor of this kisd cf pavement. It is the best street, ever made. As a general rule no other i pavement will last eight year?, and ! all need cons-taut repairs. They are ; twgh, noisy, hard for horses, and in , many other ways not at all what is J wanted. This new pavement is ci-r- t a! tily infinitely better than any oth- er, so fur at the qualities referred to , are concerned. It is smooth, noise less, easy for horses to travel on. and, according to tho testimony of those cities where it is in use, quite as durable as any. We have a standing bet with A. G. Walling tiiat his part of Front street, Port land, will be paved with Nicolsou, before the Nicolson part will be AFc Adamized. We will take a few more such. ElouUkint Passage. One of the finest things Geo. D. Prentice ever wrote is this inimitable passage : "It cannot be that earth is man's only abiding place. It cannot be that our life is a bubble cast up by tho ocean of cternitv to lloat a moment upon its waves and sink into nothingness. Else, why is it the high and glorious aspirations which leap like angels from tho temple of our hearts, are forever wandering unsatisfied ? W by is it that the rainbow and cloud come over us with a beauty that is not of earth, and then pass ell" to leave us to muse on their loveliness 1 Why 3s it that the stars which hold their festival around the midnight throne, are set above the grasp of our limited faculties, forever mocking us with their unapproachable glory And finally, why is it that the bright forms of human beauty is presented to our view and taken from us, leaving the thousand streams of our affections to flow back in.' an Alpine torrent upon our hearts? We are born for a higher destiny than of earth. There is a realm where the rainbow never fades, where the stars will be spread out be fore us like the islands that slumber in the ocean, and where the beautiful beings which pass before us like shad ows wilt stay forever hi our presence. Since:: Oil. The resident Super intendent of the California Petroleum works, at Santa Barbara, has at lest revived the old story as to ths pos sibility of finding subteranean oil de posits in that part of the country, by reporting having struck oil at a depth of oOO to 3-30 feet. How to SiiCicttl in Eusiiiess. i;t a new yokk t:::. The man who refuses to patronize the newspaper is the man of morbid disposition, cf small ideas and no business talent. His light, if he has any, is so completely concealed be neath the bushel cf self that it will never burn to any practical purpose and may be extinguished, without a single sigh from the world around. Sue!) a person is known by" his works. A spirit of liberality and benevolence never animates him, but he lives on, wondering at the success of others and bewailing his own hard lot. The newspaper is to the individual what hearing is to the blind. It teaches him better than anything else, what is going cm around, puts him in communication with neighbor ing countries and nations, gives the earliest details of commercial and j political news, and tends in the great j est; degree to true intellectual devil- 1 opment. It has a spirit of universal- it y found nowhere else ; self is for gotten in the more important events daily chronicled, and we are shortly led t o consider ourselves only as parts of the great whole, which go to make up the grand result. Take- from us the press, and we should immediately "fail back to a level with those wlto lived in the ages of ignorance and despotism. 'Ids only through this agency that we are better than they and enjoy liber ties and privileges of which t hey never dreamed. Books have their value ami merits, both of the first order and of undeniable importance, yet, as a power, the newspaper sur passes them all. 1 1 goes everywhere, is read by every one, and makes up the public opinion of the day. With out it we should be lost. -Business would come to it stand still, markets be unsteady ; stocks unobtainable at any fixed value, and everything else uncertain and fluctuating. To sav 1 nothing cf its importance in institu- j ting and sustaining a correct literary ! ta-to and healthful &cntiii'.er.t, corn-J merco is dependent in a great meas. j ttre entirely upon these daily publi- ; cations. Tuey give impetus lo trade, j steadiness ie the markets, and an in- j creased activity to al! business trans- j actions. Wo daily examine the col- earns of the morning paper fur the i prices current if we have anything; to j buy or sell, carefully peruse the vari ous commercial reports, and act upon the f.ojts thus obtained ; nor is this all, we lock here for something more. We expect to find, besides all the matter above enumerated, intelli gence which shall direct us where to make our purchases and who to buy of. Indeed, at the present day, this last idea has been reduced to such a sj stem that no man, be he ever so shrewd and intelligent, can hope to succeed in any avocation without thoroughly and energetically adver tising his business through t.io news paper. Only thus can he place him self and his firm before the public in a right light, and only thus can he be sure of even moderate success. By such a course an acquaintance is f irmed and a name established, cus tomers are found and business made on the surest and safest foundation possible to build upon. The importance of advertising is undisputed and universally admitted. The extent to which it is carried proves beyond doubt its usefulness, anel advantages. The man who ad vertises once is sure to do again, and from each outlay in this direction he reaps more anel greater advantages. It opens the most direct road to suc cess and ofi'ers equal inducements to all parties. A ghmce at any of our papers will show at once the fact tiiat those who avail themselves most of tins system, are from the highest rank ia business life, whose position and standing is obtained only through merit and experience ; and this posi tion they owe in a great measure to a steady exercise of the course we have pointed out. One to be known, must keep his name before the people, lie must let them know where he is, what he is, and what he is doing. If not, the people will never take the trouble to i hunt him up, since they can always 2nd plenty of others who willingly and cheerfully advise them of their movements and operations, and who consequently receive the custom thus diverted from other channels. One mbdit as well establish himself in the very depths of an African desert and expect to enter immediately upon a profitable business, as to start in New tu :i - .it .1 . t . ; r.-,.-!.,-, s.t rnT i other city with the same idea, unless lie resort to some means of adver tising. It is true, all do advertise in a certain degree, but if the sign and show card are successful in attracting patrons, so much the more so would be an attractive notice in the columns of tho newspaper. It is then not only the passers-byr who read, but thousands beside who never would think of gazing into a shop window for what they desire. The paper reaches a class that can be reached in no other way and produces results to bo arrived at by no other medium. What then can a business mau do mere advantageously than to freely avail himself of the door thus thrown open to all, and place before the world his goods and his merchandise. The world will then see it, read of it, ami govern itself accordingly ; a fair trial will be awarded by the public; a gen erous share cf patronage will follow, and unless he be a humbug or an impostor, his goods will sell, his mer chandise will fine! customers, and a steady increase of profits follow us the certain result. The unbelieving may doubt this. It is only because he has never tried the experiment ; let hint once do that and al! his doubts will vanish atid he become a firm be liever in this method. The man who invests his money, saved from trade in Government bonds, bank stocks or other securities, thinks the per cent, realized therefrom yields a handsome revenue, and so it docs ; but the same money devoted to advertising his goods or merchandise, his business or profession, would yield a per cent, infinitely in advance of that attainable iti any other wry. The revenue de rived from expending a few dollars in putting one's self before the peo ple it) a correct light, cannot be set down at any market value, but may be regarded as in finite. This we know to b-a a, fact and it is proved beyond dispute by the example of all live, energetic business men of the day. The importance of adopt-, ing this measure cannot be over esti mated. In fact it is almost synony mous with success, and in nearly every instance will prove a forerunner thereof. Our readers, if they never have tried the experiment, can do no bet ter than to try it now ; adopt this course at once and you will never re gret the step thus taken.

He He represents that accomplished scoundrel, says one of his critics, as a delightful man, naturally kind, con siderate, endowed with superior in tellectual qualities, and with an ex cellent heart. Tho enormities which darkened the latter half of Nero's reign were, he maintains, the natural results cf the corrupting influence of the tyranny of the Cicsars, belonging to his position and not to his nature. He advances the notion that Nero was more of an artist than an Em peror in other words that he valut-a his talent above his dignity, prefers ring to captivate the public by his histrionic abilities rather than to en slavo them by his power. Ia fact, M. Iber looks upon Nero as a wronged individual as one too ten dered hearted for this cruel world as one who fiddled not out of glee or carelessness or hcartlessness while Komc was burning, but who did the fiddling to drowir the shrieks of the Roman populace, which were alto gether more than his sympathizin nature could endure. A NomvE Dug. The body of an unknown woman was found about four leagues from the shore on the ice on the Northern coast of New fotmdland, by some fishermen in search of seals. She lay with her face on the ice, being quite dead, and a dog was lying across her back. The men found the greatest difficulty in driving the dog from tho body. Having tried gentle means first, one of them kicked him, but the dog caught hold of the man's boot and pierced it through with his teeth. They at last succeeded in driving the animal off with a sealing gaff, or pole, when they took the bodyr on shore. The woman is supposed to have left the shore in quest of seals, and the wind springing up carried the ice out to sea, and she tiu? perished. Viom ?Ioita.nsi. IIelkna, June 10th, 1807. W e are pleased to note that a large number of families are purchasing property in Helena this season, with the intention of making their homes here. A great many more are en route by steamer and overland from Minnesota, which will considerably increase our present population. Business is looking up, and our there-hams are epite busy receiving and shipping goods. . Our streets are thronged with strange faces from "America;" money is becoming more plentiful, and makes a marked improvement in our trade. The " croakers" can now stop complain ing and go to work. Flour has ad vanced 81 per sack the past week. Goods, as a general thing, have de clined in pi ice. There is now a fair prospect of the early extension of the telegraph line from Virginia City to Helena. The required amount of funds (12.500) to be advanced to the company' In cur community lias been nearly raised. Colonel Sam. T. Ilauser heads the list with a subscription cf 1,000, and with his usual energy was otherwise conspicuous in for warding the movement. As the ma terial f r the line is already here, it is understood that this enterprise will be pushed to completion without further delay. This fact is truly gratifying:, as it is a want which our citizens have long and seriously felt. The water from the Big Ditch was let into the bed-rock flume of Dry Gulcd), on Saturday last, and on yes- terday Messrs. Iugersoll ec Lemon ! were to have commenced operations with their hydraulic apparatus, as the hose and everything else neces sary for the work were completed on Saturday hist. The importance of the probable yield of Dry Gulch to Helena can hardly be over-estimated, anel it is a source of great satisfaction for us to be able to state that work in that gulch has now fairly com-, rncneed on a hire scale. The flume is now four hundred yards in length, and has one hundred inches of water j h;.. if h0 is abusive quit his corn running through it. which will be fur- p;;I,y; if he slanders you, take care ther increased to one hundred and LO mo so that no one will bedicvo seventy-five or two hundred inches. pjnn No matter who he is, or Low The fall is four inches to the rod, ;ie joisuocs on, the wi&et way is to which gives the water all desirable j lot him alone; for there is nothing force.

Ziegier and party while prospecting in a gulch about seven miles west of Helena, and in the vicinity of the Blue Cloud quartz lode, discovered good diggings. The gulch is about five miles long, and a large portion of the ground has a! ready been staked off. The Captain is satisfied that the diggings will yield about eight or ten dollars per day bo the hand. A ditch from the Prickly Pear to Trinity Gulch has already been sur veyed, and work will soon be com menced thereon. This will supply the bar with all the water needed, and, as the present source will soon be exhausted, the successful and speedy consummation of this enter prise is wished for by all interested in mining at Trinity.

The only thorough faro Q in the city of Helena that has been available as a promenade dor pedes- trians, or as a convenient driveway far carriages and for equestrians, was Rodney street. This street had be-0 come the pride and boast of nearly all our citizens, nt! we think there was a mutual desire to see It pre served and beautified as a pleasant resort. But we were not a little surprised on seeing the merciless hand cf the Big D itch company at work with the plow and ar. ox team with crooked drivers, teariif Ll great, wide, meandering, and ugly eb:P:i. nearly in the centre and the whole length of that only decent thorough fare in the city ; particularly v.wP we, as we'd as others, incensed athis abominable outrage to the pivou r'v of citizens, and to the appearance of the city, when we considered the faet- that the same ditch might jujst as. eil have been constructed through tt)o unused alley but one half a block to the west, running directly pajaued with the street, arid which allev would afford the same c-onvennee of er-ido as does tle street i ts Jf. For ore, we enter onr unqualified prote.-t against so useless and w:fl?.ton a sac rifice of the interests of p report v owners and citizens generally, as has been occasioned by the reckless, stag gering plowing up of Rodney street by a ditch company which has r tainly received the encourage no!? and assistance of the people and of the Press. lie raid.
