No one can have failed to observe tbe magnifioent Jupiter, blazing that mighty rift of the milky way, between Soorpio and Sagittarius. In tbe west, Venus asserts her realm, aa the gol den glory of the sun deollnes. About 10 o’olook, Mars flames up in the opposite heavens; and “companion of his way,” slow-paoing Saturn, tracks the glittering constellations. Tbe successive oonjunctions of the moon aa she traverses her orbit, with these bodies, present some wonderfully beauti ful and surprising combinations—very easily observed daring these hot nights, whioh keeps one wakeful—not hunting for a sensation, but seeking relief from those produced by the heat and the mos quitoes. The situation will naturally suggest some very profitable reflections upon the limits snd the antithesis of con ditions, which attend upon man, in his mundane exiateno*. Lee Cavafy, Alabama.

Borne one had told him that he (Demosthenes) waa. a Christian, but this would certainly be against figures as he was born 885 B. 0., and died 822 B. 0. His religion waa Polytheism, but he be lieved in the immortality of the soul. He was the greatest patriot, statesman and orator of hi* age. While he did not per- haps have exactly the same ideas of “religion” as Christians, yet his life is a model for any man. In private life his manners were somewhat austere, but his tone aud sent, intent at all times were lofty and pure. His domestic life was as stainless as his public life was incorruptible. In all of the virtues of a Republican oitizen, he left an example whioh none of his suc cessors or predecessor* ever surpassed. His success is an everlasting monument to application, for he was a dose student from his youth and had to overcome many deficiencies by hard and repeated endeavors.

San Fragelsoo Bulletin.J If the richest men in the world an not to-day living in California, it is almost certain they will be found hen half a oentury hence. We give below the trans lation of an article from the Gazette, a German newspaper published at Frank- fort-on-tbe-Maio, one of the financial oenters of Europe. We do not indorse the correctness of tbe statements, but they are interesting as showing the way in whioh foreign flnanders an estimating tbe resources of California: The late Rothsobild, of Paris, isft a fortune of 1,000,000,000 francs ($200,. 000,000), which amoant, at 5 per cent, per annum, would yield a yearly income of .50,000,000 franos (#10,000,000). The deoeased belonged to a family whose members, besides being unusually rich, divided this heritage among. them selves, so that it is poasibl* that now another Rothschild owns as large a for tune as the one mentioned did. Tbe Marquis of Westminster, who also died not long ago, was estimated by some to *,000,000 ■o non non Leff Straus AOo,..„, lO.SSO.SOO *,000,000 e,coo.0** 7,0 10,*00,000 Unknown 4,000,000 Unknown 4.000. 000 Unknown 4.000. 00* Unknown 4.000. 000 Unknown 4.000. 00* Unknown 4.000. 000 Unknown 4.000. 000 Unknown 4.000. 000 Unknown 4.000. 010 Unknown 4,030,000 Unknown be worth £800,000 ($4,000,000) per year; ‘ ‘ it half of by others, however, at only about this sum, on the ground that his sions (his principal wealth consisted in real estate; were heavily incumbered, and besides this muoh of his oapital had been spent on worthless improvements. Thus the total wealth of tbe Marquis, his in. come taken as the pfooeeds of 5 per cent. per annum of his entire capital would, ao- 'fan ' cording to the former estimate, amoant to £18,000,000 ($80,000,000), sooording to the latter to £8,000,000 ($40,000,000.) Considering now that in England the law of primogeniture exists, and this especial ly in regard to real estate, the great balk of which always remains in one hand, it lie* reasonable to suppose that the princi pal heir of the Marquis, most likely bless ed beforehand already with riohes, will now reach hi* testator as to the vastness of fortune, if not snrpasa him. But enough of the Old World, of Eu rope and her money kings. Let us turn our eyes now toward to* New World, America—especially toward California and Nevada—those blessed countries whioh forty years ago war* no more than roadless wildernesses; sinos, then, how ever, traversed by railroads, have beoome the bountiful treasure and fruit vaults of the Anglo-Saxon raoe. About three years ago the yearly income of Senator Jones, of Nevada, from his silver mines in Ne vada was estimated at $5,000,000, whioh would be equivalent to a oapital of $100, 000,000 at & per cent, per annum. Barely this is a fortune that is most rarely gath ered, especially in oourse of man’slife; still it has now been greatly surpassed. J. liver mines Tht FisnuM Chronicle'* Statement.

We were looking over the life of Judge Linton Stephens last night, and in one of his letters to his brother Hon. A. H Stephens, we came across this: H* had written s letter with which he was dissat isfied, and says, “I was like s novioe try ing to dispatoh an oyster, and feeling the thing grow bigger and bigger in his mouth instead of becoming prepared for the passage down hia gullet. Bo I have just taken the unmanageable monel out of my mouth, aud laid it gently down In tho spirit of Marlin Crawford’s man, who took the hot pndding oat of hia mouth at the grand dinner and laid it down with the oomplaoent, self-congratulatory re mark, “A damned fool would have swal lowed it." Bo a “d—d fool” is one who will swal low hot pudding. LOCAL BRIEFS. —Dog days began the 26th of July, and will end on the 5th of September. A camp stool is now manufactured and told, the legs of whioh can be used in lieu of a flute. —It ia aptly auggeated that it ia a waste of time to swear at flies and rnos quitoes. They don’t understand the lan guage. —A young lady on being naked what bnsiness ter lover was in, snd not liking to say he bottled sods, answered : “Has a practising flzzioian.” —Under the new postal law yon are permitted to write yonr name, preceded by th* word “from,” on tha margin of th* newspaper you send to your friend. —Between new-made lovers: “Than mins 7” “Yes, I always do Adelgithe, yon will be mil Ferdinand, if ps is willing, what he wants m# to.” “Bat bis consent 7” “H* wilt Pa alwaya what l want him to.” will he jjive caudal appendage, a “bnuch of blue ribbons,” and of whioh he wak very proud, if tbe wag of hia tail high in air oould be taken as an indication of his internal emotion. Yester day about 12 o'clock, while rambling around ihe oity in quest of hi* usual amount of reoreation, Tige had the misfortune to encounter s piece of medi cated dog meat. He smelled of it, and concluding that it was all right, be opened bis mouth and took it in. It was nut |ong : however, before “Tige" began to show signs of being siok. The news of his malady spread among tho hoys rapid ly. He waa taken in oliarge and brought to the plaoe of rendezvous, in rear of tbe News office, sod the modiaine man of the newsboy brigade waa summoned to biB relief. He cams and prescribed oopious draughts of sweet milk, which be ordered to be followed by hqroio doses of eastor oil, but the treatment waa in vain. The boys rubbed him and bathed him, but it was of no use. Boon Tige's intelligent eyes beg i to lose their lustre, and he waa no longer able to' swallow. Mr. M Kenefio was sent for, and suggested that a dose of ipecac administered in hot water would “do the business” for the sufferer, but hot water oould not be had, and aa a dernier resort one of the boya tried to oatch a bottle of steam with whioh to wash down tbeemetio. Before hesucoeeded Tige had breathed bia last, surrounded by hia friends, tbe rseipient of all the stlention they oould bestow upon him. Late in the evening hia funeral took plaoe from the reaidenoe of the boys, near the oorner of Twenty-ninth and Meohanio streets. They utilised the mail oart of the Newt as a hearse, snd draping the wheels with orape and all tha appropriate emblems of sor row, they placed the remains of the dog in it and oovered them over with a white olotb. On the rear of the cart was this inscription, “Poor Tige is deed, our pet. Jimmy Herron was the marshal of tbe procession, and, mounted upon a mus tang, h* lad th* eortege through the streets. The hears* was drawn by the boys, who kept time to the measured taps of the drum at Ihs bead ot th* column. All the principle streets of the oity were paraded, end, just as the son went down, th* boys dumped “Old Tigs” into tbe bay from the planking oo William’* wharf. They offer s reward of $10 for the police man who gave him the poison.

We have not exhausted the Hat by a long way of men worth several millions sash. In faot, we have no means of determining accurately the fortunes of a considerable number of men who are vary rich. Tbe number of men who are millionaires in this State was never so groat as now. Nona of them were riob twenty yean ago. Quite a number of thou who had large fortunes five or six ysan ago do not now figure in the list of millionsiru. Th* ups snd downs of mining interests have made tbe principal difference. A consid erable number, also, who were not rioh five years ago, have large fortune* to-day. Financial “rain” in this State only maana that mon in tbe hazards of business have lost, with the strong probability that they will more than make it up in tbe future. If it iB s land of “ups ana downs,” there never was a country where men get np so soon as in this. Thors is spring, untiring energy—men who have faith in tbem- sslvee, in the oonntry, snd in th* good Providence whioh is oo the aids of *11 who honestly try to help themselves. We have purposely omitted from this srtiole the long list of man worth from $1,000,000 to $3,000,000. There is not another country under the son where so many men have made large fortunes in ao short a time without oapital for a start. There is not soother young oity in the world whioh contains so large a population of wealthy men. These facts illustrate in a striking way the wonderful resources of this ooast. The men whose fortunes have been enumerated are only middle aged. It is more than probable that some of these or their heirs will be the riohest men in the world. Jones. *1*0, #00,000 6,000,000 400,000 16,000 6oo *276,000, 13,160,000 1,000,000 it may, Mr. Mackey is hardly forty-five ‘ ' hths of yoars of age, owner of thru-eig! the Great Bonanza,the riohoat silver mine that ever was run, and thus knows just exactly why he leads on in tbe battle of life.” The estimates made by this foreign journal are speculative and ourious, but some of those relating to tha wealthy men of this coast would need careful revision. For instance, John F. Jones, some years ago, while a large owner in Crown Point, and other productive mines, must have been worth some millions; at least, we suppose his inoome then was * fair divi dend on several millions. Bat ho some time ago oeaaed to be s very rioh man, and we presume to-day he doss not eon- eider himself to have more then a moder ate fortune. No doubt the riobest mining firm in the world ia that of Flood A O’Brien, Maokey A Fair. Their interest in two bonanza mines at the present depressed prices cannot be leaa than $23,000,000. They own the Bank of Nevada, with s paid up capital of $10,000,000 snd a reserve fund of $2,000,000. They are reputed to own $20,000,000 in United States bonds. Their real estate snd other property in sight oannot be worth less than $3,000,000. Besides these investments they own controlling interest in several other mines, some of whioh, like tbe Best and Belcher, are believed to be oo the line of riob deposits, and may at some future day be classed in the list of “bonanza mines.’’ Add these items together and we have total of $60,000,000, whioh ia an under estimate of their wealth, but how muoh so we oauuot say. The annual income on this property is not i6ss than $20,000,000, Tho individual interests cannot be de- lined, but ws should hesitate to endorse the statement of the German financiers in this particular. It wonld not surprise us, however, if aatiBfaotory proof were offered that the entire assets of these four men would foot up $100,000,000. Next in order ws should estimate the wealth of the four prinoipal owners of Railroad ant ihe Central Paoifio Railroad and the other onnnecting roads of California—Stanford, Huntington, Oroekerand Hopkins These men are the largaat owners of railroad property in the world. Most of this prop, erty is enoumbered by the iasns of mort gage bonds But we suppose that these four men have a dear margin of r-aing $50,000,000. Besides railroad property they own a great deal of land, town sites, alternate sections, oountry seats, city real estate and so on. It is a low estimate to say that they are worth $12,600,000 apieoe. Proapeotively they are worth vastly more. It may, indeed, tarn oat with their nearly 3,000 mils* of railroad aud their large amoant ot real estate that six or seven years heocs they may be, in Cl auds the existence of i known char acter of this city.—Uakeetem New*. not now the riohest tneu in California in the United States. For the pres ent, however, we adhere to our estimates, and set down the men who are the prin oipal owners of the Bank of Nevada and the great Bonanaa mines, ss th* Holiest men in this State, snd set down the four men who ere the prinoipal owners of tha Central Pacific Railroad and connecting roads aa ranking next in order, with th* qualification that ws do not hold ouraslvas responsible for these oaloalstions. They have at least the merit of shrewd guana*, with considerable data to fortify th* opin ion.

THE VOYAGE OF CAPTAIE CBAPS AMD HIS WIFE AOEOO* THE ATLAtTIO. A correspondent of th* London Batty New* at Psnsinoo, spooking ot the strive! st that plae* of Captain Crap* and hia wifo, who left Now Bedford on May 28 in a small boat, says: “Th* voyage waa oommenesd on May* 28, when tbs vessel left New Bedford, bat by stress of weath er she had to pat into Chatham, Mass., where she stayed until the 2d of-Jons, when the sails were again hoistad, and the a her little pigmy left on her perilous voyage with a fair wind. All went well for three days, the wind being southwest snd the. ind than ohanged to sea ealm. Tbe wi southeast, and it came on foggy for four days, and oootinned foggy up to tha time when they reached the Grand Banks, seventeen days out. Hers a mast fortu nate thing happened for th* naviga tors. The drogue whioh they had brought with them was found to be of little use, because it was too light. While off the banks they saw a keg floating, whioh lnekily they were able to seonre. Capt. Craps knocked off tha iron hoops, snd with some osnvaa mode s new drogoe whioh answered admi rably. When it is oonsidsrea that st one E art of tha voyage they were obliged to s to * for nearly three days in a great gale ‘ II ' - • - of wind, it will nffed no effort to imagine what a fortunate acquisition the new drogue waa.

Goold, a guest of Senator Sharon and a personal friend of Ralston, gave Eli Perkina the following incident in the life of the unfortunate California Bank President, whioh affords olew to hia character. Mr. RalBton in 1848 waa a dark on a Miaaiaappi steamboat. He wa* generous and poor. One day he went 'into the banking-house of Luke A Martin, in St. Luoia, and aooosting Mr. Martin familiar ly, said: ‘I say, Martin, can't you let me have $500?” “I don't see how we can, Billy,” said Mr. Martin, “unless you cad given* some security. Who oan you get to indorse for you? ’ Ralston soratohed hia head a moment and admitted that he oonldn’t get any se curity. Said he: ‘’Martin, the faot is I’m broke—dead broke—but I've got aohanoe to go in with O. K. Garrison down at Panama, and I must have $500 to get there.” After a while Mr. Martin deoided that be would lend Ralston 500 on his own ao- oount and run the risk of payment, and giving it to him Ralston started down the river to join Commodore Garrison. This waa in ’48. ‘Did Ralstou|ever pay Martin?” I asked Mr. Goold. “Ralston forgot it, or else ha lost iraok of Martin. Bat fourteen 'ears afterwards I met Martin in New fork. He waa broke then himself—gone all to pieces—hadn't a dollar. Balaton at this time was at the meridian of hio glory, Bpendiug money by tho millions. Well, one day Martin came np to me looking very seedy, and asked me if in my travels in California I bad ever met a man by th* name of Billy Ralston!" “Billy Balaton?” said E “B i-1-1 y B-a-l a-t-o n! why, I know s man by the name of William A. Ralston—used to be with Commodore Garrison in Panama. It waa Fitz, Ralston A Garrison in Ban Francisco, but now Balaton ia at the head of it.” “Well, Mr. Goold, that’s tbs same Billy Ralston that borrowed $500 of m* down in St. Louis iu '48. Do you think h* oould pay it back now?” “Pay it baok?” said Mr. Goold, “why survived to tell the ntory. During the voyage, which oocupied 49 days, tbe rod der broke, but happily there was a spars oar on board, whioh waa used until the fi’st oould be repaired. • The seas were running mountains high, and during all that time, even wuen Tying down to rest, they bad to lie on wet olothes On one occasion the Captain was for 70 hours steering without relief, tbs weather being so frightful, aud on an other be was 18 hours consecutively at tending to the drogue. OkJ>t. Craps says be could not have stood another 15 days; indeed, be had not slept for 70 honrs when he lauded. His average sleep while coming soross was under four hours a day. Among tbe many extraordinary things connected with the voyage is that had to be run by dead reckoning, as tbe New.Bedford was not equal to a Ohio nometer. Only on two occasions oonld they get their longitude. When speaking the two vessels Capt. Craps had intended to moke for Falmouth, but the wind was age’net it. Capt. and Mrs. Craps seemed wonderfully well alter the hardships they had undergone, though the Captain has a bad hand, and when he oam* on Bbore hia other hand was firmly Munched after 70 hours’steering. Tbs house they stopped at was invaded by persona eager to shake hands with so brave a onnple. The boat waa also visited by numbers. Capt. Craps thinks of' going on to Falmouth, and afterward to London and the Paris Exhi bition.” with Dyspepsia as Americans.

Why, Martin, Balaton oan pay baok $5,000,000 ” “Well,’’said Martin, “ehen yon see Billy in ’Frisoo you just tell him, bout me— and if he ain't strapped and if ’twont break him up, 1 jes wish'd he pay me that $500.” ’The fact of it is,’’aa he told the etory “I thought Martin was joking. I bad no idea that Ralston owed him anything. But when I got baok to California : thought I’d banter Balaton about it. So one day when I waa in Ralston’s room I said jokingly: “You’re a nice fellow, Balaton, to be oheating an old friend out of $500, ain'f yon?” “What do you mean?” aaid Balaton “Why, when I waa in New York the other day a m ji by the name of Martin—” “What!’’exclaimed Ralston, jumping to hia feet, “Warwiok Martin?" “Yes, Warwick Martin—” “Where’s his address? Here! ” he shout ed to the cashier ot tbe bank, “telegraph $10,000 to the credit of Warwiok Mars tin—quick!” and Balaton danoed around like a orazy man. “The next day, ” continued Mr. Goold, Warwick Martin reoived a telegram from Lee A Wallers, No. 34 Pine street, to call and reoive something deposited to hi* oredit” “By jingo!” said Martin to bis wife, “I’ll bet Billy baa sent me that $600. If he has Betty, yon oan piok oat a silk dress at Btewart’a,” and then he harried off to Lee A Wallers. “I Celled to see about some money, said Martin, looking through th* book screen st Mr. Lee. “Yon say I have some to my credit here.” “How much are you expaoting, and who from?" asked the banker, carsfally, as is tbe custom with people who receive mon ey by telegraph. eking fc “I’m looking for $500 from Billy Rals ton,’’ said Martin. “No $500 to yonr credit hers,” said the banker, but there ia $10,000 to Warwiok Martin.” “Tan thousand dollars!” gasped Mar tin. “Yes; $10,000.” “Well, ’taint ms,” said Martin sorrow fully, “it’s some other Martin, and ’tain’t from Billy, after all. Just my took!” and Warwiok drew his hand soross his brow, snd sighed with disappointment “If you name is Warwick Martin, yon oan take this $10,000,” aaid Mr. Lae. “By Jupiter,” aaid Warwiok, as h* nar rated tha incident to Mr. Goold, “I dido’ think ’twss mine; bat I thought of Batty —thought of the dress I promised her, and thsu I took the money and ansaksd home like a culprit. I handedjit to Betty, but I nevre smiled for two days, I was so afraid the mistake would bedateotad. But when I got s letter from Balaton himself,” aaid Martin, “I toll you there 1 waa a high old oelebration in our' September ana Ootobar, # 1 berj timber and October delivery, *d. 2:01 v. m —Uplands, low nudd’ vstuber and Desember dalbary.
