Well, Ik went to a \ i -a :<■ iii™pp.er Gttot-gia, for the ,>n,•]>.>••• • !' {•tka-.y his first, railroad trip. Ho had heim! tell of them, but didn’t believe, he. said, half the nous,;, •• f, said about them. When the cars arrived at th • place our hero was patiently waiting, and elated in anticipating ids intended ride. As the cars approached be stood gazing with wonder mid awe a*, the engine, puffing and stroking. Following the example of she others as soon us the cars slopped lie hur ried aboard, with his sad-lit- In .; on his arm, and sorted him.- •’•! near a window. Then locking around at the passengers, inanilesi ly much sur prised, ho put his head out of tlre window to see the ‘critter start.’ While in this position, watching with much anxiety, the whi.-ole found ed. Our hero, much surprised and evidently a little alarmed, drew back his head with a motion that might be called a jerk, and turning to a gen tleman sitting near him said: Well stranger did you ever hear such a snort as that ? The engine? suggested the other. Well, 1 don’t know wlmt it is, but — hello, how she goes ! Guess you are not aeqnu'nt.d with railroad travelling ? Hang if, no! habit they run :■ way? Creation, how it jerks? It’s all safe enough, you may re y, the cars are starting. That’s all, well sira.-.g r, 1 ain’t afearel, but kinder eurpr : and like, that is till, said the rnout ;mn boy, half uslnamed I golly, stranger, did you m r i hat ere snort ? it beat dad’s j cka.-s, and Ik ’s a roarer, m> mistak ■. Whew how it dobs poll! sometiug busting, •’m sure. O, fudge! its all right, said the other, settling himself Dr a nap. I svvaw ! I don’t see how you can sleep, da-ned of 1. do. Nothing -like getting used to it, said the other. You’ve heard of the eels that had been skinned so many limes, they rather like it, and \. dto come ashore every few bays to get their hide taken off haven’t you ? You’re gws.-in stranger. The beh rang, the engine mo\ G off, away wcut the cars ala rapid -peed, and before our hero had re covered from the shock which the ‘snort’, produced, the cars vero mov ing; slowly over Cliattahouchce bridge. Discover! g a change in G- gait, lie p iped liis head out of t!m window again to ‘see how it moved,’ saw that lie was son jo distance from iln earG and supposing the ‘critter’was Hying, swooned, and fell from his ; mil, speechless. Several gerifhuuu sit ting near, caught, hold of him, raised him up, shook him, and rubbed bim until lie revived a little. A hearty laugh rang through the cars, as the cause of the scene was cxplalued to the p issengers, which had tl * effect of arousin', him to consci insucss, or at least to partially do so, for lis breath began to come and go 1 >re regularly, and at hist be op tied Lis eyes, as large as s-meers, ami s ! <d g several of the gentlemen who had just come to his assistance, about him, ho looked up most beseech in the face of uue of them and said : “Stranger, has it lit r” A Female Heart.— A female hear* I may lie compared to a garden, which when well cultivated, presents a cou -1 tinual succession of Jruits and flow | os, to regale the soul, and delight the eye; hut, when neglected, pro j ducing a crop of the most noxious weeds; large and flourishing, because I heir growth is in proportion t > the warmth and richness of the il from which they spring. Then let this ground be faithfully cultivated; let I the mind of the young and lovely female he stored with useful kn \v ledge, and the influence of women, though uudiniinisln and in p wir, vil; be be like “Che diamond of the desert,” sparkling and pure, whether siVr : rounded by tin finds it desolation, forgotten and unkown, or pouring its refreshing streams through every ave nue of the social and moral fabric. ®gg“People who are always wanting something new should trv neuralgia n • 12.50 A YEAR. A City Paved with Silver and Gold. IViv-iuia City (Ncv.) Bnterprise.J Our pi i.ieipil streets being macad amized with refuse ore taken from the mines in early days, and being coated with the rich ore that has yeai after year sifted down upon them from the ore wagons, are now everywhere more or less argentiferous. Indeed, there is not the slightest stretch of imagi nulion in saying that we never take a step in the town but we are walk ing on silver. While speaking of this fact a day or two since, a young man bet his friend the price of the assay ing and “the cigars” that he would take a lump of mud off of the wheel of a ’bus, (hen standing before them, and would get out of it precious me tals to Die vahffi of over $5 per too. An ounce or two of mud was taken hom the wheel of the vehicle and pi. cod in the hands of an assayer, who was not told where the sample was obtained, and who lio doubt sup posed he was dealing with decom posed ore or vein matter from one of ■nr mines. The assay was made, and the assayer’s eer ifieate showed that the same contained, silver $7 54; gold §2 52; total $9 BG. After this we may put on airs, even though our streets are villauously muddy occa sionally, for (he very mud ou. our boots contains botli silver and gold—- is not the vulgar mud of the “cow county” towns. Silk Culture in California. —Silk culture in California seems to lie con sidered a failure. The idea prevails that our climate is in fault. Mulber ry trees thrive, but silk worms perish before maturing the cocoons. It is true that the occasional hot spells of summer have injured the worms in the great valley of California It is also true that two or three persons have escaped the fatality simply by careful housing and regulation of tem pera! are. Iris fair to say that all would have succeeded by like means. Li the foot hill country all do succeed. Not a worm is lost by extreme heat nor by the reduction of temperature at-night. It should he understood that in this climate there arc no se vere spoils, as in Europe, to destroy worm i:r mak-.- impevieet cocoons. J’hc silk factory in San Francisco buys only reeled silk, and the grower has not learned to spirt off the silk from the cocoons. Now, however, the factories at Patterson, New Jer sey. open a market for the latter, which, being compressed to cheapen transportation, repay a profit that •ncourirges the grower. — Califor nian. f ji)~ Jamracli, a Loudon dealer in animals, gives’ the particulars of tiger cap: nre in Asia. Full-grown tigers are never brought away for the use f showmen, as they cannot bo tamed, an 1 make trouble by gnawing and breaking their cages. Therefore only those under six months of age are ci plured. The natives stealthily watch the lairs at the time of brood ing, and upon waylaying a male at a distance from a female, and her litter, shoot him. For his head they get a government toward of fifty rupees. When the cubs are old enough to live without their mother, she is also shot slid la headed. The capture of the young ones is diet! safe and easy. They are kept at Calcutta until after tei thing, and are thence sent to-the pul-chasers. The Sultan of Turkey buys many, but most of them go to menageii's ii various parts of the world. Tigers are als i killed by the natives for their skins, which, if handsomely marked, are worth a hun dred rnpe s each. The claws, too, are bought by the Indian jewellers and soli for ornaments. Jurarach says that the number of men eaten by tig. re in Singapore is very great, and that an average of one Chinese wood hopper disappears every day. Matrimonial Felicity. —A recently tnarlo benedict writes as follows con cerning his young wife’s habits: “If there was a bedroom a mile long, and entire wardrobe could be packed in a bandbox, still you’d find portions of that wardrobe scattered along the whole mile of dressiugroom. She is a nice thing to look at when put to gether, but this wonderful creature is i nvolved from a chaos of interminable pins, lib ins, rags, powder, thread brushes, combs and laces. If there were 7,000 drawers and you asked but iv r one to be kept sacred and iuviola b e for your private use, that particu lar <me would be lull of hair pins, rib bons and soiled cull’s. Some provis i n, ; me protection in this matter, shoal be inserted in the marring service.” l\f*A Japanese wife • commit suicide by tougue. She .lying, and r band.
