DISABILITIStS OF CALIFOPNIA BACHBLOHI— LEGAL PROTECTION TO Hm^RSO. The Washinglnn Globe, edited by John C. ltivers, an inveterate old bachelor, has the following article: An net haa bnen intrndneed in the Califor. nin Ananmldy, to lie exempt frkm attachment, execution or garnishment, one moulh'a wa ges,not exceeding one hundred nnd titty dol lars, of “married” tneelmuies, laborers and cleiks, and of persima having under their chnrge, and dependent on them for support, fotbers, mothers, minor hmlhers or sisters, children of a deceased Vise, or other orpbau chihlien* On this proposed preference of married f.. single men, a bachelor writer, in tins ban Francisco Bulletin, sorrowfully comments as f I'owg: ■ “ The Yankee notion of putting all the bunletis of taxation and gowenmient upon single men is becoming alarmingly prevalent throughout the whole country, aud it wout lie long before they (the bachelors) will have to organise for their own protection. The washerwomen impose upon us-—tlie landla dies tyranisc over arid bully us—the uiArried mpn ‘■snub’ us.—and the law-makers fleece us in every way imaginable,besides making odi ous exceptions to our disadrautage. If a war breaks out, who so proper a volunteer lor a ‘ bould soger boy’ as your bachelor ? The whole community calls on him to go to he wars, and be a candidate for glory, and food for powder. It doesjPt make sdj dif ference, say these kind-hearted people, if lie does get killed—there is no body to care for him ; never considering that the poor fellow might have a care for himself. And thus they continually irritate, annoy and badger us, like a bull in a ring, until, in a fit of des peration, the poor bachelor either throws himself away oh the first petticoat that comes ill his way, or else takes to the sen, the field, or—poised.” The credit or shame of originatinga legal preference of married men to bachelors does not rest with tlie inventive Yankee,who have applied the means used by the ancient na tions for the promotion of marriage. The Roman censors frequently imposed fines oil idd-bacholers. Dion. Halicarnassus mentions an old Constitution, by whieti all persona ol full age were obliged to marry. But the most celebrated law of this kind was the Ju lian law, which Horace mentions, made un dor Augustus, ‘by which premiums were awarded to married men, and bachelors were made incapable of receiving legacies or inher itances, except from their near relatives. The Jewish rabbis lufiintsin that, by tlie laws'of Moses, afl persons,with a few excep tions, are obliged iif conscience to in rry at twenty years of age. One of their maxims declares bachelors to he homicides, LyeurgHs. the Spartan law-giver, was es pecially hostile to celibacy. By hi* laws, bat helnrs were pronounced infamous, exclu ded from all offices, civil nnd military, and even from the shows and public spoil*. Ai certain feasts they were forced toappuar, for public contempt, aud to sing songs iu theii own derision. ITT . h Iu Greht Britain, taxes have been repeat edly levied on tlie unmarried, ns by the law passed in 1695, in the seventh year of the i(2gu of William 111., which iin|Msini a tax on bachelors, after twenty-five years of age, of twelve and a half pounds sterling tor a duke, and one shilling fra common person ; and the taxes laid on others have been in creased in respect to bachelors,as in the case of the duty on servants, passed in the tweii ty fifth year of the reign’ of George 111 But really the California bachelors have yet no cause of complaint; for the proposed law, if adopted, will not equal iu rigor any of those we have just mentioned. In fact, is not rigorous at all; lor it does not impose any penalties upon bachelors but, only •ac cords certain privileges to married men. Fui the protection of the, married, and of otlieis who endure heavy burdens, aud perhaps, iu cidentaUy, ns aty inducement to marriage, it exeicisoa the high legal prerogative of mer cy, but does not the opinion of ancient law givers, require the infliction of severe pun isment upon the obstinate single. If, ns the bachelor writer of the Bulletin seems to fear, tlie California Legislature in tends to turn its Af'eniHiiYjn tbe best means of promoting marriage, it might be Well for the bachelors of the {state to unite in a me morial to that body, setting forth that the growing extravagance of young ladies lias made n a triage a costly luxury, a'tainable only by the rich; that the celibacy of young men, therefore, is not perverse aud volunta ry, or caused by a disregard of public duty, but compulsory and necessary; and that public policy and justice to young men (Je mund the pnssage, of a law,,similar in charac ter to the Maine liquor law, prohibiting the sale of dry goods, except in limited quanti ties to each purchaser iu eases of necessity. Such a statement of lamentuble facts would place the responsibility of the alarming in crease of celibacy where it rightly belongs, by showing that the comparative poverty, aud not the will of Young America, con sents to the dear loneliness of single life. It is stated that withjn the Inst twenty- Jwo yenni the Baptists have gained of 6,525 chnrcfies, 4,224 ministers, siiq 593,6j-9 mem bers, being an annual increase of 33.5 church es, 192 IntiiistorA.snd 26,529 members. The increase for tlte Inst ten years Iws been nisch greater in the Southern than in the Northern States—the greatest increase having been iti Virginia, Alabama and Missouri. A receut traveler iu Northern Texas,men tions as a natural curiosity in the valley at foot of the Canadian mountain, “a large bed of natural brick, which urq about three times thy axe of nrdiuary brick, and areas perfect as though tliey had I>een manufac tured in the best Wick kiln in the couuWy. *He ftiat bath no money, ncedeth no tfurse. AH AKXANBAB, “ NOATI3 “ Ine recent tnor tfirobgh one of fbe wild est and most aparsety-OeHled regions of Ar kansas, (say* a correspondent of a New York paper,) I arrived at the ferry on the Ohache river. Jt little log-house grooery stood on the near hank, about fifteen steps from where the fiat lay, tied to a snag in flip edge of the Water, Beferal bear-skins deer skins, and conn-skins, were nailed up to dry against tho walls of tlie grocery, but the ihtor was closed and no barkeeper, ferryman, or other person, was in sight. 1 hallooed at tlie top of my voice some half dozen times ixit no one answered. Seeing an advertise ment on tlie d*nr, i read as follows^ ” Noatis.—Ef eimy Imdy enms hear arter ticker, or to get Akross the River. They can ge# Uo this here home and es f dnnt cent when my wife Betsy tip at the House hears the Horne a bloin slude cum down and sell the licfeeror aet wn akross the river, imp gtiine s Fishing no credit when ime aws> front Home joint Wilson N. B. thtm that cant rede will hove to go too the house arter Betsy taint but half a mile thar.” In obedience to tlie “Noatis,” I took the blowing horn, which stuck in a crack of the wall close by the door; I gave it n “toot” or two, which reverberated far around, through cane and swamp, nd hi n few minutes was answered by a voice scarcely less lound by reverberating than that of the horn—it seem od to be about a half, a mile kpAhe river— aud in about fifteen minutes a stalwart female made her appearance, aud asked if I wfauted “ licker.” „ ” “No, madam; I want to cross.the river, if you please.” *’ Hunt ye want some licker fust ?” “ No, madam—don't drink—never touch liquor.” “ Never tech licker I Why then , you must be a preacher, an’t you ?” “No, madam; I am only a son of temper ance. I wish to get across the river, if yeu please —do you row the boat 7” no time. Fetch np your hoss..” Bfeuj’?d> asking as I led the horse Info the boat, “ Did your Imsbaud write that ad vertisement on the door there?” “ No, sir-eel Schoolmaster Jones writ that. John hain’t got no larnin !” “ And tlie good woman rowed the boat safe ly across the ugly stream ; and, liandiug her the ferriage-fee, I bade her good morning, believing then,—as I still do— that she was one of the happiest women and best wives I ever saw, perfectly contented with her lot, because she knew no better. The laymen of Pittsburgh hold meetings daily nt 8 o’clock A. M. They are well at tended hy serious, earnest inen, and are do ing much good. A few mrornings since s prayer meeting was held in s neighboring town, at whiden ludicrous affair took place, which, as it is true and dan do no harm, I am tempted to tell. It ts a rirle.iliat no prayer shall'exceed three minutes in length. “An old geii’lcmsti was called on to pray. He said he could not regulate his voice nor raise his spirits in the time allowed, but lie re membered a prayer his children said at night, and lie would repeat it : “ Now I lay me flown to sleep, * I prtiy the Lerfl my iM to keep: If I should di before I wake * I pray the Lord tny soul to take.” •The hour was 8 A. M. when thia took place, and even grave deacons and venera ble mothers of the church were forced to smile. In the midst of the merriment caus ed” hy this untiiriely’ invocation. Deacon A , a pious mail, hut n most incorrigible wag, took the floor, and, after stating that lie would confine himself to the three min utes rule, closed liis eves, clasped his hands, and with the gravity of fifty pastors, said: Lord ! I have risen from my bed: In truth and virtue I'd be led: And should I diebeftue I slcp. Dear Lord ! my soul in glory keep! The deacon sat down, and despite his at tempt at gravity, his lips twitched, and close ■ daiervers saw a mischievous twinkle in his keen, gray eyes. An itiuersnt letter writer for tho Boston Pos., supposed to be John G. Saxe, tells the following story in out* of his ainuscing letters written, from Tennessee : Not. less than four yearslago Andrew Johnson (pnpu-.. hnly called “ Andy ”) now, iu the LJuiieu States Semite, whs the Democratic candidate for Governor of -Tennessee against Gentry, American. Parson lirownlnw, the notorious “fighting Methodist,” of the Knoxville Whig was the warm partisan of Gentry. East man as the conductor of’ the leading Demo cratic journal, was of course with Johnson, and as is his wont, gave the enemy vigorous and telling blows. Gentry Was defeated, hut in honor of his “ brave associates, partners ■if his toil,” .he celebrated the event by a grand supper, at which Browniow was pres ent. When the company had got pretty dccjrfy into their cups, and were growing rattier boisterous,.the parson (who appears to be a tcetottalier) thought he Imd better qptire, and was making a movement to that effect, when he was stopped by Gentry with the ob servation that “No minister, of the Gospel should come into his house and enjoy his hos pitality and gooff without praying In the family.” Browniow fell the rebuke, and at once set about bis duty. lie read a chapter in the Bible, snug a hymn, and commenced a prayer, Hu prayed for Gentry and his bouseliold and friends: for the welfare of Tennessee, of the national confederacy, the American Eagle, and the star spangled ban ner; for Christendom tnd heathendom ; for tbs universe and, tho rest of mankind.’’— “ And finally,” said the parson, “we pray thee, O Lord, if It be /tossthle, in the pleni tude of thy mercy, to par .on and save Andy Jelmaou and E, G. Eastman”—Stop ! Stop!” exclaimed Gentry, “don’t let him do that— ti would exhaust the plats of sal on tioml’’ f ... ‘The cloak of religion may be known by tbe fine “ nap” it boa daring sermon time. ’ ‘ ‘ .... • Tom the XTbloo *nd Americas. p tn uma roooD'i vkhstoh or out vtnmv BULL BIDE _ k j A * ’*Y IK, or TfIMUPSH.
