king care of his heards is stirling, as it is
done by the Indians who are paid little or
nothing. There is great offset to this
income in the enormous prices charged for
goods, The word economy is not known,
and dress costing $50 to 500, is often
ruined in few days and thrown aside.
Last June | was at ST. Cruz, and took
ride into what is called the Red Woods
The trees are noted for their great size;
one measured 10 feet in diameter, and
$50 feet in altitude, and there were thou.
sands that would measure 10 and II feet
through. From one tree the miller said he
made $4,000 feet OF boards. II is very
extra tree in Maine, that makes 5000, |
and from another 100000 of shingles
What do you think of these for vegetables
One tree that was followed out measured
IA feet square, and was used as a tailor's
shop. A few years since some enterpri-
sing Yankees introduced saw mills which
reduced the price of boards from $50 and
$50 pr M. to $40. Till lately they ground
their grain scripture fashion, it taking , all
the time to keep the family supplied, but
now there are 2 or good flour mills built
by Yankees, which give us flour equal to
any at home. The Calilornians are re-
markable for nothing but horsemanship,
and well they may be for that, as they are
on horseback from infancy.
The farmers who read the above extract
will see that California with its delightful
climate has a capital drawback in the want
of rain. This is the great objection TO il
for agricultural purposes.

In reference to that portion Of the me-

Congress has no power under the constl'

railroads and other works of internal inn

aided directly by Congress, should it pass

Rine Bread,

Bread made Of wheat -four, when taken
out OF the oven, is unpreporcd for the sto-
mach, II should 60 through a change, or
ripen, before il is eaten. Young persons
or persons in the enjoyment of vigorous
health, may eat bread Immediately alter
being baked without any sensible injury
from ii; but weakly and aged persons can
not, and none can cat such, without doing
harm TO the digestive organs. Bread, al
Ter being baked, goes through change
similar 10 the change in newly browed
beer, or newly churncd buttermlk, neither
being healthy until after The change. Du-
ring the change in bread, it sends Off
portion OF carbon, or unhealthy gas, and
imblbes large portion OF Oxygen, or heal
thy gus. Bread has, according 10 the com
putation OF physicians, one.ilh more nu-
triment in il when ripe, than il has when
Just out of the oven. II not only has more
nutrinen;, but imparts much greater de-
gree of chcerfuIness. He that eats old
ripe bread will have a much greater flow
of animal spirits than he would were he to
cat unripe bread. Bread, as before OBJ
served, discharges carbon and imbibes oxy-
gen. One thing, in connexion with this
thought should be particularly noticed by
all housewives. II is to let the bread ri.
pen where |, can inhale the oxygen in a
pure state. Bread will always taste of
the air that surrounds il while ripening;
hence it should ripen where the air is
pure. 1t should never ripen in cellar,
nor in a close cupboard, nor in bedroom.
The noxious vapors of cellar, or cup
board, never should enter into and form u
part of the bread we cat. Bread should
be lga, nell baked and properly ripencd
before il should be eaten.
Bread that is several days old, may be
renewed, so as 10 have all tho freshness
and Iightness of new bread, by simply put
| ting il into common steamer over fire,
and steaming il half or three quarters of
an hour. The vessel under tho steamer,
containing the water, should not be moro
than half full; otherwise, the water may
boil up into the steamer and wet the bread.
After the bread is thus steamed, it should
be taken out of the steamer, and wrapped
loosely in a cloth, to dry and cool and re-
main 50 a short time, when it will be ready
to be cut and used, 1t will then be like
cold new bread,

A graphic picture of the couHesies and
usages Of every day life IN California, is
given in the following extract Of letter
from an intelligent shipmaster who has
been several years on the coast, which we

The Evening News Of yesterday reports
that Mr.. badger, Secretary Of the Navy
under Gen. Harrison, is now In Washing
ton, supposed TO be commissioned to take
Mr.. Haywood's seat in the Senate. II
would be too openly confesslng plot--a
fraud-a mean trick. II is bad enough
for an individual TO sneak out Of his seat
in the Senate--but for a political party to
confess to an intrigue with him by which
they we're to crawl into the seat, requires
more contempt Of decency Than we can
believe any party in ~ Carolina 10 have.
But probably the mail Of to-day will settle
the doubts. Chari. Mercury.

Indian Corn,

Indian corn is growing popular in these
latter days. In days gone by it was con-
sdored a very vulgar sort Of graiu--was
only fit for the commonest people 10 cat
But since the falling oil in the potatoo
crops, new virtues have been discovered
in Indian corn; even John Bull seems will
ling to fatten on it, ii he could discover
how to cook it.
A few days since, while dining At the
Baltimore Exchange, we noticed a couple
Of newly-arriyed, sandy-haired English
men, opposite US, scrutnizing the bill Of
fare. Il was near the desert, and they
were looking among the custards, buildings
and pies, for something Herewith to con
clude their sumptuous dinner.
"What's this, Bob?" said one, 4IIlnlian
puddngl"
"Where2" inquired Bob, peering at the
bill.
"Hindian pudding, IIindian pudding,'

do you think, what they're making such a
rumpus about at'ome?"
ayes, that must be it, concluded Bob,
"My hey, them" said his freud, "Iet's
ave it,"
Presently the desert was brought on
and our English neighbors cast their eyes
anxiously over the table to discover the
Hindian pudding. But the difference be-
tween them and the lrishman was, tina
while Pat knew his letters, by sight, he
couldn't call them by name, they knew
Hindian pudding by name, but couId'n
tell it when they saw it.
At length one called waiter.
"Bring US the maize pudding, my boy
said he.
The waiter stared--he didn't know i
by that name.
"The Hindian corn puddin' my boy, III,

lishmen.
