Life in California.—California is prolific of strange occurrences in domestic life. A wealthy couple residing at Oakland had bten married a quarter of a century, and issued invitations for their silver wedding celebration. The fashion and elita of San Francisco were there, and filled the saloons of the mansion with their spleudid dresses and joyous smiles, and all sorts of silver were as wedding presents appropriate on such occasions. A beautiful yonng ladv, the daughter of the house, was demurely helping her mother entertain the guests and arrange the wedding feast, and in the Crowded rooms her temporary disappearance was not noticed. Presently she appeared in gorgeous white. veiled, with lier fair brow encircled with a wreath of the mystic orange-blossom. A young gentleman seemed to have dropped from the clouds with a wedding garment on, and took his place proudly at the right of the demure young lady. A minister as suddenly appeared in front of them, and the whole scene presented a tableau which the silver wedding company began to comprehend. On open ing the marriage license the officiating minister discovered that it had been procured in San Francisco, and therefore was not available in Oakland. It was remembered that the end of the pier, which was not far 01F, had been judicially decided to be in San Francisco. The whole company took the train for the end of the wharf, and the young couple were made one on the pier by the light of a lantern, beneath the starry skies. Items of Interest.

NITROUS OXIDE GAS School Books, Pen Holders, I ° Famine.—There are serious apprehensions in Ireland of another famine. The Irish peasantry in some parts of the island are writing to their friends in this country that the utmost anxiety prevails in regard to the food supply, and' that fears are entertained of widespread and terrible destitution. Information derived from entirely different sources leads to the conclusion that there is too much reason for the prevailing apprehension. A writer in an English journal who has made a special tour through Great Britain for the express purpose of ascertaining the condition of the crops, and who is recognized as an authority on such subjects, estimates the value of the potato crop to be less by seventeen millions of pounds sterling than that of an average year, and of this loss more than one-half falls on Ireland. If this estimate is correct, it may be considered certain that great distress will exist this coining winter among the poorer classes, -Dvho depend principally npon their potato patches for subsistence. The wheat crop of Great Britain is also likely to fall far short of an average one. It is perfectly safe and very to inhale.

SMITn, Life I'reservino Mattresses.—The trouble about these mattresses and their use is, that they may be stored away in a ship for ten years, pass inspection time and time again, and be worthless, trom the casing having rotted, so that with the least strain they will come to pieces. The life-preserving mattresses were next examined. They serve both the purpose of a bed and life-preserver, and fit neatly into the berth, there being a square hole in the middle, which is filled up with a separate cushion when the mattress is only used to sleep on. When employed as a life preserver, this middle piece is pulled out, where a hanging strap is found, in which a person can rest. The mattress is made of hair and cork shav-Loks, and is. varr -rr'-11- ~~DHr«d. It is no, properly a life-preserver, in tire sense employed by the supervising inspectors, but takes a higher grade of service, that of an auxiliary life-saving appliance, every twenty of them on a shipboard compensating for a raft, under the rules as adopted i* Washington, in October, in 1871. With a certain number ot these tied together, with the sheets taken from the beds, or lashed with ropes, the passengers from a wrecked vessel might find safety. The Mcjtis had a number of these oh board, and they were found to have saved many lives.— Exchange.

A wealthy aunt, in infirm health, the story ran, had willed her an immense fortune, of which, any day, she might become the mistre«s.

If ,Jog_don't fancy the picture, we can only say you would have passed for no judffe at Swellcove. Among the visitors at the " Cove" that season, was a nice ycung man from the city. We needn't describe him more particularly—to know one of these nice youns men is to know all. His name was De Quincey Dothunter. Mr. Dothunter's business was genteel idleness. By his own account, he was down on the right side of the books of a rich uncle, whom the life tables didn't give over five years to run, to say nothing of the family gout, and a hopeful contingency of apoplexy. How in the world a young lady of Miss Wyslibene's cleverness could tolerate sticli a pupy as De Quincey Dothunter, was the oft expressed wonder of the crowd of envious competitors to whom it was obvious that that gentleman's attention was more favorably received than their own.

A nromnt.lv in astonished serrant said he wouldprocure one. Having obtained an axe, Cartwright asked the waiter to guide him down stairs. At the first .turn it* the stairs, Cartwright blazed his mark in the walnut baluster. The dumbfounded waiter asked what he meant. " I want to know my way back to my room again." said Cartwright.

Ac, A Money Ordeb Decision.—An important question ; arising ont of the United Slates money order system has recently been before the department of Justice. It grew out of a controversy between the remitter and payee of a money order, the latter demanding payment of the same and the former forbiddi"g it. The Attorney General decides that after the remitter of an order has delivered it to the payee, he cannot stop payment of it ; bnt the latter is entitled to have tue amount paid to on proper demand. The decision is based upon the peculiar provisions oi the act of Congress establishing the money order system, which differ, in this rcspect, from the English system.

The Secret.—" I noticed," said Franklin, "a mechanic among a number of others at work on a house being erected but a little way from my office, who always appeared to be in a merry humor, who had a kind word and cheerful smile for every one he met. Let the day be ever so cold, gloomy and sunless, a happy smile dashed like sunbeam on his cheerful contenance. Meeting him one morning, I asked him to tell me the secret of his constant flow of spirits. "No secret, doctor," lie replied. "I have got one of the best wives, and when I go to work she always has a kind word of encouragement for me; and when I go home she meets me with a smile and a kiss; and then tea is sure to be ready, and she has done so many little things through the day to please me, that I cannot find it in my heart to speak an unkind word to anybody." What influences then has woman over the heart of man, to soften it and make it the foundation of cheerful and pure emotions. Speak gently then; greetings after the toils of the day are over cost nothing, and go far toward making home happy and peaceful.

TnE DrEixo.—Don Arthur Abrue, a Cuban, has challenged the editor of the Spanish paper in New York to mortal combat. A city paper says: Before the Cuban war commenced, the Abreu's were very wealthy sugar planters of Cuba, moving in the first social circle of the island; men of consideration and influence as well as ot large fortunes. From the start they earnestly sustained the Cuban revolution, and for this have been almost beggared by the Spaniards ; their properties, lying mostly within the district ot Colon, that has hardly been touched by the insurrectionary fires, confiscated, and the members of the family driven away from house and home. Two of the brothers of Don Arthur were captured by the Spaniards, arms 'in hand, and sooii afterwards shot. Another brother was killed in battle, and a fourth died from sickness contracted in the Cuban service. An uncle was also captured and shot by the Spaniards, and several cousins killed, so that he has lost nearly a dozen near relatives through the war.

While he was cutting the last crop of clover with a mowing machine, one ot the horses refused to draw. The miserable creature became enraged at the animal, and pounded him until his strength was exhausted, then shoved a stick down his throat. Not satisfied with that, he took the horse from the machine, procured an ax, and started with the horse for the woods, striking the animal many times with the blade of the ax, cutting several deep gashes. On arriving at the woods, he took the ax and cut the animal's head from the body. S. J. BARBER, Prop'r. (OPPOSITE THE FIRST NATIONAL BANK,) Robt. Seaman. Saml. J. Berry, Jr J. A. Wisner.

Mothekhood.—Mrs Harriet Beecher Stowe speaks of motherhood in a pretty way, when she says : "It would sometimes seem as if motherhood were a lovely artifice of the great Father, to wean the heart from selfishness by a peaceful and gradual process. The babe is self in another form. It is so interwoven and identified with the mother's life that she passes by almost insensible gradations from herself to it; aud day by day the instinctive love of self wanes as the child-love waxes, filling the heart with a thousand new springs of tenderness.

PITTSTON, War the Sun's Rats Make Round Spots.—When light comes through a small hole into a dark room it forms on the opposite wall an image of the object from which it proceeds, no matter what the shape of the hole; as, now. the sun is round, the image formed by its light will be round also. If the sun were square or triangular, its light, under the above circumstances, would form square or triangular spots. As it is, the round spots are real images of the sun, of which fact you convince yourself by watching such images on a day when floating clouds cover up the sun from time to time. Ycu will see the images of the luminous edges of the clouds around your round sun spots, and their dark masses covering the same; and when you use a single hole these appearances are very striking. The shape ol the hole is of no consequence, provided it be small and of a diameter of one quarter of an inch or less. The house has been thoroughly renovated, repaired and furnished, and is in all respects, the largest and most desirable Baburban Hotel in the Wyoming alley.

Life in California.—California is prolific of strange occurrences in domestic life. A wealthy couple residing at Oakland had bten married a quarter of a century, and issued invitations for their silver wedding celebration. The fashion and elita of San Francisco were there, and filled the saloons of the mansion with their spleudid dresses and joyous smiles, and all sorts of silver were as wedding presents appropriate on such occasions. A beautiful yonng ladv, the daughter of the house, was demurely helping her mother entertain the guests and arrange the wedding feast, and in the Crowded rooms her temporary disappearance was not noticed. Presently she appeared in gorgeous white. veiled, with lier fair brow encircled with a wreath of the mystic orange-blossom. A young gentleman seemed to have dropped from the clouds with a wedding garment on, and took his place proudly at the right of the demure young lady. A minister as suddenly appeared in front of them, and the whole scene presented a tableau which the silver wedding company began to comprehend. On open ing the marriage license the officiating minister discovered that it had been procured in San Francisco, and therefore was not available in Oakland. It was remembered that the end of the pier, which was not far 01F, had been judicially decided to be in San Francisco. The whole company took the train for the end of the wharf, and the young couple were made one on the pier by the light of a lantern, beneath the starry skies. Items of Interest.

NITROUS OXIDE GAS School Books, Pen Holders, I ° Famine.—There are serious apprehensions in Ireland of another famine. The Irish peasantry in some parts of the island are writing to their friends in this country that the utmost anxiety prevails in regard to the food supply, and' that fears are entertained of widespread and terrible destitution. Information derived from entirely different sources leads to the conclusion that there is too much reason for the prevailing apprehension. A writer in an English journal who has made a special tour through Great Britain for the express purpose of ascertaining the condition of the crops, and who is recognized as an authority on such subjects, estimates the value of the potato crop to be less by seventeen millions of pounds sterling than that of an average year, and of this loss more than one-half falls on Ireland. If this estimate is correct, it may be considered certain that great distress will exist this coining winter among the poorer classes, -Dvho depend principally npon their potato patches for subsistence. The wheat crop of Great Britain is also likely to fall far short of an average one. It is perfectly safe and very to inhale.

SMITn, Life I'reservino Mattresses.—The trouble about these mattresses and their use is, that they may be stored away in a ship for ten years, pass inspection time and time again, and be worthless, trom the casing having rotted, so that with the least strain they will come to pieces. The life-preserving mattresses were next examined. They serve both the purpose of a bed and life-preserver, and fit neatly into the berth, there being a square hole in the middle, which is filled up with a separate cushion when the mattress is only used to sleep on. When employed as a life preserver, this middle piece is pulled out, where a hanging strap is found, in which a person can rest. The mattress is made of hair and cork shav-Loks, and is. varr -rr'-11- ~~DHr«d. It is no, properly a life-preserver, in tire sense employed by the supervising inspectors, but takes a higher grade of service, that of an auxiliary life-saving appliance, every twenty of them on a shipboard compensating for a raft, under the rules as adopted i* Washington, in October, in 1871. With a certain number ot these tied together, with the sheets taken from the beds, or lashed with ropes, the passengers from a wrecked vessel might find safety.

A wealthy aunt, in infirm health, the story ran, had willed her an immense fortune, of which, any day, she might become the mistre«s.

We needn't describe him more particularly—to know one of these nice youns men is to know all. His name was De Quincey Dothunter. Mr. Dothunter's business was genteel idleness. By his own account, he was down on the right side of the books of a rich uncle, whom the life tables didn't give over five years to run, to say nothing of the family gout, and a hopeful contingency of apoplexy. How in the world a young lady of Miss Wyslibene's cleverness could tolerate sticli a pupy as De Quincey Dothunter, was the oft expressed wonder of the crowd of envious competitors to whom it was obvious that that gentleman's attention was more favorably received than their own.

It grew out of a controversy between the remitter and payee of a money order, the latter demanding payment of the same and the former forbiddi"g it. The Attorney General decides that after the remitter of an order has delivered it to the payee, he cannot stop payment of it ; bnt the latter is entitled to have tue amount paid to on proper demand. The decision is based upon the peculiar provisions oi the act of Congress establishing the money order system, which differ, in this rcspect, from the English system.

The Secret.—" I noticed," said Franklin, "a mechanic among a number of others at work on a house being erected but a little way from my office, who always appeared to be in a merry humor, who had a kind word and cheerful smile for every one he met. Let the day be ever so cold, gloomy and sunless, a happy smile dashed like sunbeam on his cheerful contenance. Meeting him one morning, I asked him to tell me the secret of his constant flow of spirits. "No secret, doctor," lie replied. "I have got one of the best wives, and when I go to work she always has a kind word of encouragement for me; and when I go home she meets me with a smile and a kiss; and then tea is sure to be ready, and she has done so many little things through the day to please me, that I cannot find it in my heart to speak an unkind word to anybody." What influences then has woman over the heart of man, to soften it and make it the foundation of cheerful and pure emotions. Speak gently then; greetings after the toils of the day are over cost nothing, and go far toward making home happy and peaceful.

From the start they earnestly sustained the Cuban revolution, and for this have been almost beggared by the Spaniards ; their properties, lying mostly within the district ot Colon, that has hardly been touched by the insurrectionary fires, confiscated, and the members of the family driven away from house and home. Two of the brothers of Don Arthur were captured by the Spaniards, arms 'in hand, and sooii afterwards shot. Another brother was killed in battle, and a fourth died from sickness contracted in the Cuban service. An uncle was also captured and shot by the Spaniards, and several cousins killed, so that he has lost nearly a dozen near relatives through the war.

While he was cutting the last crop of clover with a mowing machine, one ot the horses refused to draw. The miserable creature became enraged at the animal, and pounded him until his strength was exhausted, then shoved a stick down his throat. Not satisfied with that, he took the horse from the machine, procured an ax, and started with the horse for the woods, striking the animal many times with the blade of the ax, cutting several deep gashes. On arriving at the woods, he took the ax and cut the animal's head from the body. S. J. BARBER, Prop'r. (OPPOSITE THE FIRST NATIONAL BANK,) Robt. Seaman. Saml. J. Berry, Jr J. A. Wisner.

Mothekhood.—Mrs Harriet Beecher Stowe speaks of motherhood in a pretty way, when she says : "It would sometimes seem as if motherhood were a lovely artifice of the great Father, to wean the heart from selfishness by a peaceful and gradual process. The babe is self in another form. It is so interwoven and identified with the mother's life that she passes by almost insensible gradations from herself to it; aud day by day the instinctive love of self wanes as the child-love waxes, filling the heart with a thousand new springs of tenderness.

PITTSTON, War the Sun's Rats Make Round Spots.—When light comes through a small hole into a dark room it forms on the opposite wall an image of the object from which it proceeds, no matter what the shape of the hole; as, now. the sun is round, the image formed by its light will be round also. If the sun were square or triangular, its light, under the above circumstances, would form square or triangular spots. As it is, the round spots are real images of the sun, of which fact you convince yourself by watching such images on a day when floating clouds cover up the sun from time to time. Ycu will see the images of the luminous edges of the clouds around your round sun spots, and their dark masses covering the same; and when you use a single hole these appearances are very striking. The shape ol the hole is of no consequence, provided it be small and of a diameter of one quarter of an inch or less.
