Whenever Dick Baker, of Dead horse u'ch, wiu» ont of HAr and n !:*- tie Uowu-heurted, he would full to mourning over the loss of a wonderful cat he used to own (for where women and children are not, nun of kindly impulse t k * up with p 'R, for they must love something.) And he al wi.ys Bpok ; of the slt'sitgt aagucity ol that cat with I he air of a tnau who be lieved in his secret hr ait that there w.ta Bouieti,.ng .m ,i;ti. about it—may be even stiprrtia' nml. I heard him talking about this ani mal once. He uuid, g uitL men, I used to have a or t here, by the name of Torn Quartz, you’d a tot k an interest in, I re. kon—most anyljody w -uld. I had him here eight years—and he was tLe re mark aides t cat I ever ste. le was a large gray one, of the Tom specie, and he had more hard, natural sense than any man iu his camp, and power of dignity; he wouldn’t a let the Gov ernor of California be familiar with him. He never ketched a rat in his life —’peared to be above it. He nev er keeretl about nothing but mining. He knowed more about mining, that cat did, than any man I ever see.— You couldn’t tell him nothing about digging—aud as for pocket mining, why he was just born f>r it. He would dig out after me and Jim when W'j went over the hills prospecting, and he’d trot along behind us for as inueh as live miles, if we went so far. Ad he had the best judgment about m niug ground—why you never see any thing like it. When we \lrent to work, he’d scatter a glance around, and if he didn’t think much of the indications, he would give a look as much as to say, •‘Well, I’ll have to get you to excuse me,” and without another word he’d hyste his nose into the air and shove for home. But if the ground suited him, he would lay low aud keep dark till the first pan was washed, and then he would slide up and take a look, and if there was about six or seven grains of gold he was satisfied —he didn’t wane no better prospecfc’n that—and then he would lay down in our coats and snore like a steamboat till we’d struck the pocket, and then we’d get up and superintend. Well, b/ and by, up comes this quartz excitement. And everybody was into it—everybody was picking and blasting instead of shoveling dirt on the hiil side—everybody was put ting down a shaft instead of scraping the surface. Nothing would do Jim but that we must tackle the ledges, to«>j mid kn mo Wt livUiliut/UUwl putting down a shaft, and Tom Quartz, he begin to wonder what in the Dick ens it was all about. He hadn’t ever seen any mining like that before, ad was all upset as you may say—he could not come to a right understanding of it no way—it was too many for him. lie was down on it, too, you bet you— he was down on it powerful, and always appeared to consider it the cussedest foolishness out. But that cat, you know, he was always agin new-fangled arrangements; somehow he could nev er abide ’em. You know how it is with old habits. But by and by Tom Quartz begin to git qprt of reconciled a little, though he never could alto gether understand that eternal sink ing of a shaft, and never panning out, anything. At last he got to coming ’ down in the shat* hiins If, and try to i cipher it out. And when he’d get the j blues, and feel kind o’ scruffy, aggra vated and digusted—knowing as he did the bills was ruuniug up all the time, and we warn’t making a cent—he would curl up on a gunny sack in the corner and go to sleep. Well, one day when the shaft was down about eight foot, the rock got so hard that we had to put in a blast—the first blasting we’d ever done since Toni Quartz was born. And then we lit the fuse and dumb out and got fifty yards—and left Tern Qaartz sound asleep on the gunny sacs. In about a minute we seen a puff of smoke burst up out of tie hole, and then everything let go with an awful crash, and about four millions tons of rocks and dirt and smoke and splinters shot up about a milo and a half into the air; and, by George ! right in the middle of it was old Tom Quarts, going end over end, and a snorting and a sneezing, and a clawing and a reaching for tLnngs like all possessed. But it warn’t no use. you kuow r , it warn’t no use. And that was the last we see of him for about two minutes and a half, and then all of a sudden it begin to rain rocks and rul>b:ige, and duvetly lie come down ker-whop about ten foot off from where we stood. Well, I reckon he was p’r ps the oruerlesfc looking beast you ever see. One ear was sot back on his neck, and his sail was stove up, aud bis eye-winkers was swinged off, and he was all blacked up with pow der and smoke aud all soppy with uiud and slush from one . nd to the other. Well, sir, it warn’t no use to try to apologize—we couldn’t say a word. He took a sort of a disgusted look at hisself, and then he looked as if he had said—“ Gents, may be you think it’s smart to take advantage of a eat that ain’t had no experience of quartz mining, but I think different”— ami theu lie turned on his heel and marched off home without ever sayiug another word. That was jest his style. And may be you won’t believe it, but after that you never see a cat so prejudiced against quartz mining as what he was. And >y and by when lie did get to going down in the shaft again, you’d a b n astonished at his sagacity.— The mmute we’d touch off a blast and i the fus’d begin to sizzle, he’d give a look as tnucu as to say, “Well, I have to get you to excuse me,” and it was susprising the way he’d shin out of I that hole and go for a tree. Sagacity! It ain’t no name fur it. Twas inspirati.tn! I said, “Well, Mr. Raker, this pre judice against quartz mining was re markable, c usidering bow he came by it. Omldu’t you ever cure him of it?” “Cure him! No! When Tom Quartz was sot once, he was always sot—and you might a Mowed trim up as much as three millions times and you’d nev er a broke him of his cussed prejudice against quartz twining,” The affection and the pride that lit up Baker's face when he delivered this tribute to the firmness of his bumble friend of other days, wdl always be a vivid memory with iuj. The PnornrirroKS of the XIX Century Magazine h »ve the pleasure to announce that in the February number will be given the opening of anew Southern Romance, entitled * Hie Storm and the Suns t,” by Colouel Hen .y Cleveland, the talented au.hor. We hardly need tell who Colonel Cleveland is, to the public where he is kucwu so well. In 1859 lie gave up a large law practice to become political editor of the Augusta. (Ga ) C<>nd Hut tonalinf, and was a de’e gate to the great Knnocratie Conven tion of that year. He only left that pa per when the South called her sous to .the field, aud (save when a prisoner) he was a soldier from the first month of the war to the last, mostly in field ser vice. At the close of the war he retired to hiv plantation on the Georgia Rail Road, and in 18G6 published a biogra phy of Vice-President, .Stephens, which had a large sale. Mr. Cleveland was one of the editors of Appleton’* Journal in the first half year of its existen e. The. XIX Century, now so well estab lished and so popular, has on its lists the best writers in the Union, and at $8.50 a year, or 85 cents a copy, is cheaper than Uar/jers or the Atlantic Monthly. It. is high-toned, even in ad vertisements, and does not bey for pat ronage, but deserves it. Long live the “City between the Rivers” and its Mag ozine.— Charleston, (S. G.) Courier, Dec. til, 1809. A Nineteen Mill ion Heiress—Five millions Paid Over. Some months since we published a statement to the effect that Miss Gray, a milliner of Fo. t Edwards, had be come the fortunate heiress to $19,000,- 000, which her lover, a young English man, ha l willed to her upon his dying bed. The main fact in the case —the heirship is true; but we now learn that it was not to the lover, but to his fa ther that Miss Gray is indebted for her extraordinary good fortune.

Whether it was remorse at his faithlessuess, or from some other cause, certain it is the young man died in about a year after his marriage, und left all his property to his father. The old gentleman was without heirs, aud not having become reconciled to his daughter-in-law, up on his death lelt one-half of his prop erty to the Government of England and the remaining half, $19,000,000, to Miss Gra\, the Fort Edward millin er.

But I had a little larkin’ scrape last spring, aul we live away off to Boston, and don’t get such elmnces, if you'll agree to keep mum I’ll tell you about it.” “I w-ill keep perfectly dark,” said the tar, who was beginning to feel inter ested; “go on with your story.” “It does make me feel kinder ugly when I think on’t, I’ll be hanged if it don’t, but it’s all over row..
