“Drab colored Christianity.”— This was the title once given by a gentleman to the religion of a Quaker, by whom the former had been grossly cheat ed, in some pecuniary transaction—and we are re minded of the aptness of the cognomen by an anec dote told of T. McKennan of Pa., a Whig Electon and one of his Quaker constituents. After Tom had made a speech extolling old Zack, the Quaker slip ped up and said—“ Friend Thomas, we cannot vote for a man of war and blood as Gen. Taylor: Uur re ligious principles forbid us doing so ; but I will tell thee what we can do—we will vote for thee, Friend Thomas, and thee may vote for whom thee pleases.’’ And, accordingly, so it came to pass. These “ drab colored” Christians, forgetting their anti-war and anti-slavery principles, went with a rush for the Taylor elector ! Hypocrites, as they are, they “ whipped the devil round the stump,” and think they have done a smart thing in thus falsifying their pro fessions ! The (.old Region. The reader will perceive that we have given place to the substance of the reports that reach us from the gold mines of California. Since the article was in hand, we have received the Wash ington Union, containing the-report of Col. Ma-’ son, the Governor of that Territory for the pres ent. His report corroborates the statements published, and states that a very few solid lumps have been found worth SI,OOO each. Os course near the mines no other labor is done except dig ging for the metal—and almost the whole coun try teems with the desire to be ofl thilher. Com panies are forming in New York, New Orleans, and in many other cities—and there is one near ly full in Decatur county, Ga. If one.half the reports turn out to be true, Ameiica will yet be the richest continent on the globe—and the cost of the late Mexican war, which appeared so enormous to some, will dwindle into insignifi cance when compared with the millions of wealth, that the gold mines, secured by the war, will yield to our country and people. But every body cannot go there—hence it is best for each one to be contented with his lot, and let adventurists alone to secure wealth at the perilous hazards which such enterprises re quire. Let the sober-minded business man or man of family read the following sensible re marks from Maj. Noah’s N. Y. Titties of 3d inst. and be satisfied with tilings as they are : “The plain,overspread with the precious min eral, is computed to be eighty miles in length and. thirty in breadth : and it is said that 2,000 per sons can gather, or rather arc gathering, 8500,- 000 per week. It is moreover, stated, that the supply of gold—at this rate of abstraction—will last thirty years 1 This would give a grand total of seven hundred and eighty millions of dollars ; which sum, added to the present stock of bullion in the world, woukl probably reduce the value of gold as a measure of prices full twenty per cent. No general or permanent benefit could ics.ilt from the acquisition, for the decrease of value would be in an inverse ratio to the increase in quantity. We see the effect of this immutable law of values in the present prices of the neces saries of life iu California. We are told that a man has only to stoop and take up a shovel full ot sand, and he is at once, possessed of some three, or four dollars, which lie can secure in thirty minutes by the process of washing ; and in this way one person can realize 40 or SSO per diem. But then lie has to pay SSO for a barrel of flour, which he could buy here for s(>; and sl2 for a pair of shoes, that a New York maker would sell tor $1 50. Gold has no fixed ami unchangeable value, as some people appear to suppose. It is merely a commodity of less worth intrinsically than almost any tiling wo can buy with it, and only bearing a conventional value as the representative of things which have a real intrinsic worth. If the world were flooded with gold, the metal would soon sink in value below the smallest portion of any necessary which it now purchases: and we should buy gold with bread, instead of buying bread with gold. The few who might be lucky enough to dip out a for tune from the first gush of the glittering tide, and wise enough to invest it in real properly before the overflow had rendered gold a drug in the market, would undoubtedly benefit by the Pacto lean flood ; but its general cfiect would be to produce a commercial revolution and involve all the operations of trade in disastrous confusion. “ Had rich mines of coal, or of any other min eral used in the arts, been found in California, there would have been a more rational cause for rejoicing than there is at present. But it is im. possible to impress the community—and especi ally the young aud enterprising portion of it— with this conviction. Already the gold fever has become epidemic, and expeditions are organ izing in this city and in New Orleans for the pur pose of proceeding to the Pacific coast. Mean while, much sickness prevails among the gold diggers ; and the rainy season, which commen ces in the beginning of December and continues until the middle of March, is already upon them. Comparatively shelterless, and it is to be feared short of provisions, many will die. Famine and fever will consume them in the midst of wealth which would purchase the harvests of the world! “Miserable misers 1 what will their gold avail them ? Cut of!'from the coast by the inundation which occurs in the winter months, exposed to unwholesome vapors, and lacking not only med icine and attendance, but the necessaries of life, they will perish almost as miserably as the rniscr of old, down whose throat melted gold was poured as a punishment for his avarice.” Richted.—We have been accused of partiality, because in noticing the humbugs of the day, we omit ted to pay our respects to one of the “ small fry ” jugglers who held forth in our city last week to “crowded houses,” (that is, if benches “crowd” a house.) Our reply to the accusation is, that the “Fakir of Siva,” as he pompously styles himself, was either “too full of business” or too mean to send us a ticket for our previous notices of his intention to visit our place. We did not have the face to attend with out paying a “half,” and rather than throw away money in that style, we prefer seeing all such clap trap demagogues in the stone house at .Milledgeville. Therefore, our non-attendance prevented us from ex posing this chip of humbugs—albeit, uc did hear that he performed some sleight-o'-hand tricks that as tonished all the green ‘uns present; such, for in stance, as taking gingerbread out of a country- man’s bosom, and hiring the said countryman to appear wonderfully aitonished at tiie artful trick of (during bread in his bosom without the cognizance of him self or of the audience ! But when it leaked out that these performances oftho countryman constitu ted no small part of tho “show,” the Fakir sloped ; and those who had paid a Imll to see this “Hindoo pupil,’” hud to acknowledge that they were “sucked again.” ! Eye Sore.—'jhe little old building standing north of'the Methodist Church is a horrid looking affair. | We hope the owner or owners (if there are any) will see to its repair or removal. We have heard of one reason for its remaining, however, and there may be something in it—it is, that the beauty and stateli ness of the new Church are much enhanced when viewed in comparison with the ill looks of this miser able shanty.
