—The silver wedding of A. S. Barnes,
the prominent book publisher of New
York, was celebrated on Saturday week.
Mrs. Barnes received from her husband
a present of a magnificent breastpin,
whose central stone was a diamond,
representing the wife and mother;
around this ten pearls were set, repre
senting the ten children ; these in turn
were encircled by twenty five gaenets,
indicating the years of married life, and
the outer circlet of fifty diamonds signi.
tied the age of the husband. On the
reverse were inscribed the dates of the
engagement, marriage, aud silver wed
ding.
Shortness of Time in Dreams. —One
of the most remarkable phenomena
connected with dreams is the shortness
of time needed for their consummation.
Lord Brougham says that in dictating a
man may frequently fall asleep after
uttering a few words, and be awakened
by the amanuensis repeating the last
word to show he has written the whole;
but, though five or six seconds only have
elapsed between the delivery of the sen
tence and its transfer to paper, the
sleeper may have passed through a
dream extending through haif a life
time. Lord Holland, and Mr. Babbage
both confirmed this theory. The one
was listening to a friend reading aloud,
and slept from the beginning of one'
sentence to the latter part of the sen
tence immediately succeeding; yet
during this time he had a dream, the
particulars of which would have taken
more than a quarter of an hour to write.
Mr. Babbage dreamed a succession of
events, and woke in time to hear the
conclnding words of a friend’s answer to
a question he had just put him. One
man was liable to a feeling of suffoca
tion, accompanied by a dream of a
skelleton grasping his throat whenever
he slept in a lying posture, and had an
attendant to wake him the moment he
sank down. But though awakened the
moment he began to sink, that time
sufficed for a long struggle with the
skeleton. Another man dreamed that
he crossed the Atlantic, spent a fort
night in America, and fell overboard
when embarking to return, yet his sleep
had not lasted more than ten minutes.
Gold and Silver. —For the current
year, 1866, the aggregate gold and silver
products of the United States is esti
mated from $82,000,000 to f 106,000,000.
The details of the largest estimate are,
that California will produce $25,000,000;
Montana, $18,000,000; Nevada, $16,-
000,00; Idaho, $17,000,000; Oregon,
$8,000,000; Colorado, $17,000,000; and
various other sources, $5,000,000; total,
$106,000,000.
Vancouver’s Island. —The pooplaof
Victoria, Vancouver's Island, have pc'
titioned Queen Victoria to allow the
colony to withdraw from the British and
annex itself to the United States Gov
ernment.
