SUMMONS. SHERIFF'S SALE. A TRIP IO SALMON. 11Y MAX IRWIN. Ant—'1 Jordan.'"1 1 looked to the North and I looked to the South, And I saw the Californians a coining, Witb their picks, and pans and shovels on their backs. They were traveling their way up the Salmon. CHOBUB, Then Wive yonr money boys to pay your way thro,' Two to one on Salmon against Cariboo, Don't be too bast; and gel iuto a fever, For you'l! all make a fortune up in Salmon river. We left California with a hundred pound pack, And rested on the Siskiyou mountains, We took a drink of red eye and started ou the track, Por ils a bard road to travel up to Salmon. We traveled through Rogue river all complete, Till we trot away out to the Canyon, When the Umpqua country stuck to our feet, But we shook it oil ou tbeCallapoola mountains We camped that night and all climbed a tree, To look for the laud of promise, Bui, away to lhe North as tar as we could see, There was nothing but the river Long Thomas. The Long Tom country is the best ever fouud, For snakes, frogs and alligators, Alter the hogs have rooted up the ground, Ttie farmers, plan*, their potak.es. I asked n Long Tom man to loan me a hoss, I will return him again next Summer, " By the flood already I have suffered great loss, So you had better git, you California bummer.' We called a miners' meeting rip-lit on the spot, For President we elected old Higgins, We agreed one aud all to fill our pockets full of pocks Aud foot it to the Salmon River Diggings. \_Portland Times. .:... .h. tollnwlnir: The wrongs and Borrows *'""• ,_,_,„.

For how much misery will Austria be responsible- bow terrible the account which will be called up against her Kaiser, when he shall be summoned to the tribunal from whence there ia no appeal.— Letters from Venice to-day speak of the anger of the Venetians at the Vandalism of the oppressors, who are now engaged iu piercing Ioophooles for mucquelry in the walls of the time-honored palaces ol the Doges. When Bhall we see Benedek, tike Marino Faiiero, decollates pro criminibus ? But a sadder story lias plunged Venice into more lhan ita wonted sorrow. A young Hungarian uo- ble, iu au Austrian regiment, had fallen violently in love with a beautiful V'euettau girl. They met Irequeutly in society. She returned his passion told him she loved him, that she would never marry another, but that she could never marry him, an officer in an Austrian regiment, while three of her brothers were fighting for Italy.

Pktertue Great.—Macaulay does not flatter the autocrat of Russia in the following description of him as he appeared when he visited England one hundred and sixty years ago. His good and evil qualities are equally portrayed by tho faithful] historian: "His stately form, his intellectual forehead, his piercing black eyes, his Tartar nose and month, his gracious smile, his frowa, black with all the stormy rage and hate of a barbarian tyrant; and, above all, a strange nervous convulsion which sometimes transformed his countenance, during a few momcutB, into an object on which it was impossible to look without horr6r; tho immense quantities of meat which he devoured, the pinta of brandy which he swallowed, and which it was aaid he had carefully distilled with hia own hand ; the fool who jabbered at his feet, the monkey which grinned at the back of hia chair, were, during some weeks, popular topics of conversation. Witb all the high qualities which were peculiar to himself, he had all the filthy habitg which were then common among his countrymen. To the end of hia life, while disciplining armies, founding schools, framing codes, organizing tribunals, building cities in deserts, joining distant seas by artificial rivers, he lived in hia.palaca like a hog in a sty ; and when he waa entertained by other sovereigns, never failed to leave on the tapestried walla and velvet state beds, unequivocal proofs that a savage had been there." John B. Wellei; and Uncle Abe.—While Washington we heard & good story in regard to Uncle Abe and John B. Weller," the Mexican kill. PUBLIC LANDS!

Surveyor can make a plot Irom the field notes Given under my hand at the city of Los Ange- extant. Twen Weller waa at Washington, settling hia accounts as Minister to Mexico. After their itdjuatment he concluded to pay his respects to Mr. Lincoln, with whom he had served in CongreBS. He called at the presidential mansion and waa courteously received. " Mr. President," Baid Col. Weller, ■' I have called to say lo you that I most heartily endorse the conservative position yon have assumed, and will stand by you so long as you prosecute the war for the preservation of the Union and tbe Constitution." 11 Ool. Weller." said the President, " I am heartily glad to hear you say thie." '• Yes, Mr. President," said Weller, " I desire au appointment to aid in this work," i '• What do you want, Colonel!" asked Abraham, "I desire to be appointed a Commander in the Navy," said Weller. The President replied, " Colonel, I did not think you had any experience aa a sailor." " I never had, Mr. President," said Weller, " but judging from the Brigadier Generals you have appointed in Ohio, the less experience a man has the higher position he a'.tainB." Lincoln turned off with a hearty laugh, and said —" I owe yon one, Colonel.—Seneca Advertiser. Tu the Paris Court of Correctional Police, recently, a lady, by uo menus young, advanced coquet- tishly to tho witness stand to give her testimony. ' What Is your name V ' Virginie Loustatot.5 What is your age?' T-veuty five.' (Exclamations of incredulity from the audience.) The lady's evidence being taken, she regained her place, still coquottishly nodding, aud the next witness was introduced. This oncja full grown young man ' Your name?' said tbe judge. ' Isadore Loustatot.' * Your age V ' Twenty seven years.' Are you a relative of the last witness?' 'lam her sou.' ' Ah, well, murmured the magistrate, 'your mother must have married very young.' " Why don't you limit yourself':" said a physician to au intemperate [man ; " set dowu a stake that you will go so far and no farther.1* " So I do," said tho toper, " but I set it bo far off that I always get drunk before I get to it." What do the young ladies often look for li church? The hims. The man who walka " u thousand miles in a thousand hours" is more generally admired than he who walks uprightly three core years and teo A Treasure ok a. Wife.—a young Englisl traveler contracted iu Valencia a love affair with a pretty gypsey girl. Tbe mother wished that he should marry her at ouce ; but the Englishman declared that he was not rich enough to keep a wife. "What.1." said the gypsey, laughing, "not rich enough, in the land of guineas! With so renowned a thief as my daughter, you will be a rich man in a year!" Rhwabd roe EUb&x Hours— Wa say to young Little Troubles,"—What arestyledjthe " lit tie troubles of life," are the hardest to bear. One can nerve himself up with heroism for a great trial, but the musquito like annoyances of every hour, for which unfeeling natures have no word of sympathy, and which they cannot understand so long as the sufferer has something to eat, are what fill churchyards and make so many homes desolate. Happy aro tbey whose " little" troubles find that sympathy out of which grows etrength to endure, and whose hearts are not ground to powder by the rough heel of indifference and inBensib ility. On hearing a clergyman remark that" the world was full of change," Mrs. Partington said she could I hardly bring her mind to believe it, so little found it way into her pocket. You never win the thing on which your heart is set, life staked ; it falls to Borne one else who cares very little about it. It ib a poor compensation that you get something you care very little for, wbich would have made the happiness of another man. As A dandy was wendiug his way through a narrow passage, he met a pretty girl aud said to her: "Pray,my dear, what do you call thia passage?" "Balaam's passage," she replied. " Ah, then, ■' I am like Balaam—stopped by an angel." "And I," rejoined the girl as she brushed past, "am like the angel—stopped by an aas." They are a deeply religious people in Rhode Island, if the following be true: A Connecticut school master asked a lad from Newport " How many Gods there were?" The boy after scratching his head sometime replied—" I don't kuow how many you've got in Connecticut but we bave none in Rhode Island." SUMMONS.

Willis, is iu deep affliction at the departure of po many shoulder straps for Ma- iHtssas, and will go into a hasty decline if a few foreign counts do not arrive by the ncx'- steamer. Private letters trom Europe say that tbe barbershop business on the continent is loo good this season to permit many distinguished dukes to visit America now, t'.iough the fact that a few of the French nobility have recently discharged their coachmen may lead us to hope for a few Orleans GOiittts during the su miner. The most interesting natural curiosity here, next to Secretary Welles' beard, is the office of tlie Secretary of the Interior. Covered with spider webs; and clothed in the dust of ages, my boy, sit the Secretary and his clerks, like so many respectable mummies in a neglected pyramid. The Department ofthe Interior, my boy, is in a humorous condition ; the sales of the public lands for the past year amount to about ten shillings, the onlv buyer being a conservative Dutchman froni New Jersey, wfco hasn't heard about the war yet. These things weigh upon my spirit, and I was glad to order up my gothio stallion, Pegasus, the other day; aud rattle down to Manassasonce more. Upon reaching that celebrated field of Mars, my boy, I found the General of the Mackerel Brigade in his tent, surrounded by telegraphic instruments and railroad maps, while the Conic Section was drawn up in line outside. "You appear to be much absorbed, my veuera- ble Spartan," says I to the General, as I handled the diaphanous vessel be was using as an act-drop in the theatre of war. The General frowned like an obdurant parent refusing to let bis only daughter marry a coal- heaver, aud, says he : "I'm absorbed in strategy. Eighteen months ago I was informed by a contraband that sixty thousand unnatural rebels were intrenched some-' where near here, and having returned the contraband to his master to be immediately shot, I resolved to overwhelm the rebels by strategy. Thunder !" says the General, perspiring like a pitcher of ice water in June, "if there's anything in the world equal to diplomacy, it's strategy. And now," says the Geueral, sternly, " It's my duty to order you to write nothing about it to the papers. You write about my movements ; the papers publish it, and are sent here, my Adjutant takes the papers to the rebels, and so, you see, my plana 11 known. I have no choice but to suppress yon.'-' " Uut.'J says I, " you might more surely keep the news from the rebels by arresting the Adjutant." " Thnnder," says the General, " I never thought of that before." Great men, my boy, arc never so great but they can profit occasionally by a suggestion from the humblest of the species. I once knew a very great man who went home in a shower, and was horrified at discovering that he could uot get his umbrella through the front door. He was a very great man, understood Sanscrit, made speeches that nobody could comprehend, aud had relatives In Beacon Btreet, Boston. There he stood in the rain, ray boy, pushing his umbrella this way and that way, turning it endways and sideways, hold it at acute angles and optuse angle:-; bat still it would'nt go through the door or auythiug like it. By and by there came along a chap of humble at- tainments,'who sung out: " What's the matter, old three-and-sixpencei" Tho great man turned pautingly around, and says he: "Ah, my friend, I cannot get my to pucker loilferishly ^^^^^^^^^^^^^ "Hevyou tried the experiment of shutting np that air umbrella V says be. Tlit» great man gnve a Atari, and " Per Jovem! 1 didn't think to And he shut his uiubreKi.

Hust seen auy troops pua bere of later" Sated Captain Bob Sltorly, with much dignity. The Southern maiden, who was a Fleet Family, sniffed indignantly, aud any a she : " I reckon not, poor hireling Hessian," "Forward—double-quick— natron I" says Captain Bob Shorty, with much vehemence ; " that ere young woman bas b89Q eating onions." Onward, rlgbt onward through the 3&rlEQtfBB, w;;:it, (he Conic Seetion o! the Alack end Lrigiuh;, eager to engage the rebel foe. and work out the genias of strategy. Half au hour, and another bonne was reached. In response to the Captain's knock, a son of chivalry stuck his head out of a window,and says he : '■ There's nobody nt home." '■ IVice; ignoramus !"' suys Captain Bob Shorty, majes:ieally ; the tJaftgt. States Of America wishes to know if you have seen any troops go by tonight ?" '• Yes," says the chivalry; " my sister saw a company go by just now, I reckon." '• forward—double-quick —march !" says Captain Bob Shorty, ,J we can catch the Confederacy if we're quick enough." And now, my boy, the march was resumed with v.aw vigor, for it was certain that the enemy tvas right In front, and might be strategically annihilated. A long time pElsaed, however, without the discovery of a soul, and it was alter midnight when tho ne*t house was gained. A small black contraband canto to the door, and ays he : "By gorrah, mars'r srtgerum, what you hah?" '■ Toll me, ydang Christy's .Uinstrel,'' says Cap- tain Bob Shorty, ■' have any troops pitted here tonight ?" The contraband turned a somerset, and says he " Mars'r and missus hub seen two companies di berry night, so helpuM God." "Forward—double-quick—march I" says Cap. tain Bob Shorty. "Two companies is rather heavy for this band of Spartans, but it is sweet to die for one's country." Tlie march went on, my boy, until we got to the next house, where the inmates refused to appear, but shouted that tliey had seen three companies go past. At this. Captain Bob Shorty was heard to scratch his bead io the darkness, aud says lie : ''This here strategy is a good thing at decent olds ; but when its three to one, it's more respectable to have all quiet on the Potomac. Halt, lel- low-wictims, and let us wait here until the daily sun is issued by the divine editor." The orb of light was calmly stealing up the east, my boy, when Captain Bob Shorty sprang from his blanket and observed the house, belore which the Conic Section was encamped, with protruding eyes-. "By all that's blue!" says Captain Bob Shorty, '"; if that ain't the WOpry identical house where we saw the vinegar maiden last night.: And so it was, my boy 1 The Conic Seetiort of the Mackerel Brigade had beeu goins round and round on a private race course all night, stopping four times at the same judge's stand, and going after their own tails, like so ninny humorous cats- Strategy, tny boy, is a profound science, and don't cost more thau two dollars a day while the money lasts.

Who Ann thk " DisUKioMSlB" AS'i> " Tit.uTons?" —The Illinois Slate Register gires the following extract from one of the last letters of Senator Douglas from Washington. It shews wbo that distinguished patriot thought were the " traitors" and "' disunionisls ;" " The fact can no longer bo denied, that many" oTthe Republican Senators desire war and DISUNION, under pretext of saving the Union. They wish to get rid of the Southern Senators, in order to have a majority iu tho Senate to confirm lhe appointments ; and many of them think they hold a permanent Republican ascendancy in the Northern States, but not in the wiior.E Un'iov.

SUMMONS.
SHERIFF'S SALE.
A TRIP IO SALMON.
11Y MAX IRWIN.
Ant—'1 Jordan.'"1
1 looked to the North and I looked to the South,
And I saw the Californians a coining,
Witb their picks, and pans and shovels on their
backs.
They were traveling their way up the Salmon.
CHOBUB,
Then Wive yonr money boys to pay your way
thro,'
Two to one on Salmon against Cariboo,
Don't be too bast; and gel iuto a fever,
For you'l! all make a fortune up in Salmon
river.
We left California with a hundred pound pack,
And rested on the Siskiyou mountains,
We took a drink of red eye and started ou the
track,
Por ils a bard road to travel up to Salmon.
We traveled through Rogue river all complete,
Till we trot away out to the Canyon,
When the Umpqua country stuck to our feet,
But we shook it oil ou tbeCallapoola mountains
We camped that night and all climbed a tree,
To look for the laud of promise,
Bui, away to lhe North as tar as we could see,
There was nothing but the river Long Thomas.
The Long Tom country is the best ever fouud,
For snakes, frogs and alligators,
Alter the hogs have rooted up the ground,
Ttie farmers, plan*, their potak.es.
I asked n Long Tom man to loan me a hoss,
I will return him again next Summer,
" By the flood already I have suffered great loss,
So you had better git, you California bummer.'
We called a miners' meeting rip-lit on the spot,
For President we elected old Higgins,
We agreed one aud all to fill our pockets full of
pocks
Aud foot it to the Salmon River Diggings.

of Venice—how long and sorrowful is the tale!
For how much misery will Austria be responsible-
bow terrible the account which will be called up
against her Kaiser, when he shall be summoned
to the tribunal from whence there ia no appeal.—
Letters from Venice to-day speak of the anger of
the Venetians at the Vandalism of the oppressors,
who are now engaged iu piercing Ioophooles for
mucquelry in the walls of the time-honored palaces ol the Doges. When Bhall we see Benedek,
tike Marino Faiiero, decollates pro criminibus ?
But a sadder story lias plunged Venice into more
lhan ita wonted sorrow. A young Hungarian uo-
ble, iu au Austrian regiment, had fallen violently
in love with a beautiful V'euettau girl. They met
Irequeutly in society. She returned his passion
told him she loved him, that she would never marry another, but that she could never marry him,
an officer in an Austrian regiment, while three of
her brothers were fighting for Italy. Vainly did
the Hungarian urge hia suit, earnestly entreating
a meeting. At last tbe fair Venetian wrote to him :
