Th« Uoe of the Dictionary.
Thu trader may discover by the fol
lowing extract that it would be possible
to write * tecbnieally gramatiooi Sen
tence which wouhf be almost unintelli
gible. The words below can all be
found in the dictionary, and all are
grauiatically used ; and yet the thing is
as hopelessly dark as if written tn
Cherokee. It is an amusing illustration
of the fact that one may write Euglish
or speak it, and still use an unknown
tongne. The latter purports to be a
note from an author to a critic:
Sir: You have behaved like an im
petiginous scrovle 1 Like those inqui
nate, crass sciolists who, envious of my
moral ceisitude, carry their nugacity to
the height of creating symposically the
facund words which my polymathic
genius uses with überty to abligate the
tongues of the weetless : Sir, you have
crassly parodied my own pet words, as
though they were tangrams. I will not
coacervate reproaches—l would obduce
a veil over the atramental ingratitude
which has chamfered even my uudis
cerptible heart. I am silent on the
foscillation which ray coadjuvancy must
have given you when I offered to be
io ueyour fautor and adininele.
I will not speak of the lippitude, the
ablepsy, you have shown in exacerba
ting me—One whose genius you should
have approached with mental discalce
ation. So I tell you, sir, syncopphicallv,
and without supervacaneous words,
nothing will render ignoscible your
conduct to me. I warn you that 1 would
vellicate your nose, if I thought that
any moral diathrosis could be thereby
performed—if I thought that 1 should
not iuipignorate my reputation by such
a digtadiation.
Go, tachygrapliic scroyle! band with
your crass, inquinate fautors—draw
oblectations from the thought, if you
can, of having synachronically lost the
existimation of the greatest poet since
Milton, and draw upon your head
this letter, which will drive you to
Walker and send you to sleep over it,
Knowledge is power, and power is
mercy ; so I wish you wo worse than i t
may prove an eternal hypnotic.”
For an entire solution of the above
highly interesting missive, the anxious
reader is invited to amuse himself an
hour or two with Walker’s or Webster's
unabridged.
A Wonderful Land with Stone
Trees Six Hundred Feet Long.—ln
the Eastern Slope newspaper we find a
report of many of the curiosities and
the great riches of the Black Rock
country, in the northwestern portion of
California. The reports of the singular
features of that section are of many
years standing, but are so marvellou s
that they have seldom obtained credence.
Among the wonderful stories we have
heard is one that there is a petrified tree
there seven hundred feet in length!
The present reirort in part confirms pre
vious statements, and establishes the
fact, that Black Rock is one of the
wonders of the Pacific coast, like the
Yosomite, the big trees, the Gycers, etc.
Besides the curiosities there appears to
be an abundance of silver at Black
Rock, but the ore is said to be of an
unusual variety and very difficult to
work ; but it has been worked with very
good results at the mills at Washoe.
The quantity of ore is so great that it is
said it will justify the erection of a thou
sand mills,
A gentleman who visited the section
has exhibited to the editor of the East
ern Slope very many curiosities peculiar
to the country, strange petrifications
from the ravines, curious water-worn
pebbles from the mountain tops ; knives j
arrow-heads and daggers manufactured
by Indian skill from solid flint, a supe
rior quality apparently of ore-block tin,
said to contain six hundred dollars in
silver to the ton, pebble tin, with its
curious fracture, that admits no change
in form, and a thousand strange and
new things. The editor says: He also
tells us of tunny strange things that he
saw, but could not bring with him, and
many stranger things that fie heard but
did not see. Among the latter list of
wonders is a great basin that contains a
petrified forest, apparently floated there,
many vast trees of solid stone, ranging
from six to fifteen feet in diameter.
Doubtful as this tale may appear j
shall we dare to dispute its correctness
when we know this strange country has
a boiling spring of fresh water fifteen
feet in diameter, that cannot be sounded,
from which no drop of water ever runs ;
that in the same vicinity there is a
flowing stream of cold and apparently
good water, the drinking of which in
duces venereal disease; and that uny
water found by digging is as salt as salt
can make it; that a half dollar depos.
ited in the soil is eaten up by the salt,
and alter thirty days no vestige can be
found.
—A Baltimore dispatch says it is ru
mored that Reverdy Johnson will take a
