in litre seems to be in a chaotic state, con ,on and disorder. My opinion is, that the i.ioner mining becomes unprofitable the better W |l! be for the country ; for as soon as agri cultural and commercial pursuits gain the uscen .lunt. this country will undoubtedly become one of th'' most opulent upon the shores of the Pacific. .\t this time we are destitute of most of the i rntVirts and conveniences of civilized life.— Kverv person comes here to make money, with me view of ultimately returning to the States ; and until mining becomes subordinate to the ~,.]tivatiori of the soil, but few of the comforts of domestic life will be introduced into the country, and as a necessary consequence, but few of the many thousand adventurers remain after they have accumulated a few thousand Uollai s. Perhaps you would wish to know what are my opinions respecting the propriety of persons in t:, e States leaving their homes and coming to me K1 Dorado. I have already spun out my letter to an almost unreasonable length, but will crave your indulgence a little longer, to give my views briefly upon the subject. My advice, af ter a careful consideration of the subject, and (itttienu in the mines, is that it is far bitter for taose w ho are in business and doing w ell at home, • remain there. Persons who are in ill health, or of a delicate constitution, should not come here; for of all places in the wide world, this ~ the one most to be dreaded in the hour of sick ness. Far from home and friends—without Money and with but few of the comforts of civil ized life—the sick man is truly in an unfortunate ■ii.'l pitiable situation. For medical attendance alone physicians will charge an ounce (sl6) a v;-it; and this, you know, would soon consume the earnings of many days in the mines. For tunately for myself, 1 have not been a day sick -mce I left Lewistown. The class of persons ;n the States who can better their condition is the laboriug portion of the community. It is true that many of the richest plar-ers have be come exhausted ; but I have no doubt that for many, many years to come, a strong, athletic uian can make from $5 to $8 per day, one day with another, throughout the year. How foolish, then, to work in the States for one dollar, or even les9. It is true you can lite in the States, but here you only stay. You can have but few comforts here, still the inconveniencies will be I lessened every year ; and as for health, my opin- i ion is that this is, with a few local exceptions, as healths a country as there is in the States. Don't j understand me as regretting that I came here. | Far from it. So well pleased am I that in all likelihood 1 shall make it a permanent home.— Should I do so, I will of course pay you a visit occasionally in the Stales. The distance is only some 7000"miles, and for a man who rode on i.urse-back some ten or twelve hundred miles at a stretch, the journey is nothing when performed bv steam. 1 shall be much pleased to hear often from vou. Very truly, yours, &c., K P. S.— l heard a day or two ago that WILLIAM SCOTT, formerly of died up at the mine*. The report was brought down to Stock ton by a man who keeps a trading establishment at Murphy's Diggings, and told to a man of my acquaintance, who knew Scott. I hope, how ever, it may be untrue. Iv.

In pursuance of public notice a number of the citizens of the borough of Lewis town convened in the Presbyterian church, in said borough, on Friday evening, the 9th day of March, 1850, for the purpose of adopting measures for the better observance of the holy Sabbath.

The said committee, through their chair-, man, Judge Ritz, reported the following preamble and resolutions, which were, on motion, adopted: Whereas, we believe that the observance of the Sabbath is alike required by the laws of God and the necessities of our na ture ; that all employers are under a moral obligation to allow their employees suffi cient time to attend to moral, social, and domestic duties: that incessant labor with out the intermission of the fSabbatli, is de structive to eoul and body, and if it should become general, would lead to a thorough corruption of public morals, and in the end the destruction of our social institutions. Therefore, Resolved, That we cordially approve of the course pursued by the Fenna. R. R. Co., in the suspension of all Hunday operations upon their road, and would respectfully suggest the adoption of •miilar resolutions by all other rail road corporations in this state, and in die United States. Resolved, That our senators and repre erit-jtives m General Assembly be re quested to use their influence to procure a tike suspension upon all lite canals and rail ■* 'ids owned and managed by lite .Slate ol Fenna. - - • Resolved, That these resolutions be printed and a copv sent to each senator nd representative. Hn motion of II L. Benedict, Kq , it u - * resolved, that the proceeding* of this meeting be pubiiahed in ike newspapers of tliis borough. On motion of S. S.

On motion of Dr, S. F. Green, the Fre sident appointed John Evans, F. J. Hoil man, and John ii. Weeks, a committee to procure a house and make arrangements for the meeting, &e.

In pursuance of the call contained in the above proceedings, a large meeting of citi zens of the county was he\i at the Town Hall, on Monday evening last, 11th ins'. On motion, Hon. CHAS.

CONTER, oi Lewis town, and ABKER THOMPSON, of Armagh, Secretaries, The meeting being thus organized, tho following committee was appointed to pre pare a preamble and resolutions for the consideration of the meeting —Gen.

Samuel Alexander, John Evans, Win P. Elliott, Jacob Ort, John Sterrett and Samuel W. Taylor, sr. In the absence of ihe committee, ad dresses pertinent to the occasion were made by James T. Hale, Esq., of Belle fonte, aud S. S. Woods, Esq. The committee having returned, reported the following proceedings, which wen , on motion, unanimously adopted : Whereas, the observance of a weekly day ot rest is based not only upon the revealed law of God, but also on the law of nature, as taught to mankind by the experience of ages, showing most conclusively that it is the duty of man to his Creator and to himself, to re frain from labor one day in seven: And whereas, the first day of the week, commonly called Sunday, is recognized as the Christian Sabbath, by a large majority of the civilized world; and its observance is enjoined upon the people of Pennsylvania, by positive legis lative enactment, which recognizes no dis tinction, and is the rule of action, alike for the weak and the mighty —the rich man whose word is power, and the toiltng millions who labor for their daily bread : Therefore, we, the citizens of Mifflin county, in general county meeting assembled, feel it to be our duty and privilege to raise our united voices in defence of an institution coeval with the creation of the world, and w hose influ ence has been so beneficial upon mankind, in a social, civil and religious aspect —therefore, Resolved, That we have heard with regret and astonishment, that a bill has passed the Senate of Pennsylvania, virtually authorizing those who observe the seventh day as the Sabbath, to follow their secular business on the first day of the week, recognized as the christian Sabbath, and that as freeman of this Commonwealth, we hereby protest against this attempt to overthrow one of the strongest bulwarks of our social, civil and religious liberties. Resolved, That we approve the course pursued by our Senator, J. J. Cunningham, in voting against this bill, and we hereby instruct our representative, Alexander Gibbo ney, Esq., to vote against and oppose the passage of the same in the House of Repre sentatives; and, if the same should pass the legislative, we call upon the Governor to in terpose his veto and prevent Its becoming a law. Resolved, That we heartily approve the action of the Directors of the Pennsylvania Rail Road Company, in stopping the running of cars on their road on Sumla}' —that the same meets the entire concurrence ot a large majority of the citiz- its residing near the line of the road, and that their action, in this re spect, will he sustained by every good citizen, patriot and christian. Resolved, That we have heard with un feigned regret that an efloit is making to over awe the action of the Board of Directors of the Perm*. Rail Road Company in regard to this question, and that, as stockholders of said road, and citizens interested in its prosperity, we'pledge ourselves to sustain the Directors, by our votes and influence, and that we will resist to the utmost extent of the law, the de, seeration of the Sabbath within our bordprs. bv the officers and agents of this or any other company, should it he attempted. Resolved, That it isthedutjr of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, and all Rail Road and Canal com panies within the state to stop the running of their cars and boats on .Sunday, and we cannot irt a politi cal point of view recogniz" the right of a State or corporation bv their agents, to violate a Jaw of the land which is imperatively binding on every mechan ic, laborer, merchant or la fin or Resolved, That the experience of centuries show most clearly that man ant! beast, areulikc benefitted, by the rest of the Sabbath, and that it is the interest of both employer and those employed to cease on that day from all labor or secular employment, both of mind or body. Rrsotted, That to deprive the laboring man by any inducement or compulsion to forego the rest of the Sabbath, is an outrage upon his rights a* a freeman, and that any company or corporation which recog nises this sacrifice on the part of those in its employ as a consideration for remaining in their employ, is guilty of a tyrranny that should not be tolerated in this free country. That while no man or set of men have a right to follow "any worldly employment or business what soever, on the Lords day, commonly called Sunday." each man hss a right on that day to cease from la bor, and observe it as a day of rest and religious im provement, without interference or hindrance from any human power. On motion, it was resolved, that the Chairman on resolutions be requested to wend a copy of these pro edings to our Senator and Representative, the Di rn ;.>! i>f the [Vny!aun Rati Itotd ' oinjmny. hi? Excellency Governor Johnston, and to each member ol the Bond ol Canal Commissioners of Penosyivu j nia. On motion ordered.
