Jenny Lind's Voice.

Ii is difficult 10 describe that peculiar quail
ity OF tone, which renders Jenny Lind's voice
unlike that OF any other singer. Many female
artists may boast OF stronger voice-s.ron-
ger IN the sense offs capability OF producing
louder sounds. Bu al far as strength de-
notes the power of sustaining great exerton
without exIausling brllliancy OF tone, Jenny
Lind's voice is naturally as strong as the
most exacting critic of the modern Italian
school conlt desire. II is certainly ncapa-
ble OF delinenring excessive rage or violent
passion: and if such be the highest achieve
ment of the singers art, Jenny Lind must
yield the palm to Crisis, Calalan, and many
of her predecessors. But in the expression
OF hope, joy, or grief, 10 tones of human
voice or instrument can compare with those
Of Jenny Lind. They penetrate the inmost
recesses of the heart, aud touch insensibly
that mysterious chord in our nature, the vi
braton of which causes the gushing tear TO
flow involuntariy. There is an lnexpressi-
BILE tenderness in her voice it is so sympa-
thetic with the genuine feeling OF n loving
and atfeclionate nature, and il harmonizes
so well with her appearance, that the enrap-
tured listener unknowingly connects the
voice of the public artist with the character
of the private individual, aud touched by the
one, is lnught insenslbIy TO love the other.-
Thus it is thar, in passages expressive of
prayerfu enlreaty or profound emotion, Jen-
ny Lind is supreme. No one can so exquis.
itely portray the delicate shades of sentiment,
or the ever varying emotions of love. And
yet il must not be supposed that thnt soft
voice is untitled for melodies ofa more Joy
Gus character. The crisp silvery quality OF
her upper notes, aud her nnrvuIied power
o.. modulating them, aud sustaining and at-
renuating a note until ii dies away in the
lowest possible whisper, enable her 10 pro-
duce some of her most startling effects. IL
is this perfect command over the resources
of her voice, and the sponlaneiry with which
II responds 10 every caprice OF the seemingly
inspired singer, which are sure 10 elicit the
first expressions of the listeners surprise
With all this extraordinary power Of art
however, il must never be 70, gotten that tile
intellect is paramount and thai sweet and
beautiful as is the voice with which God has
gifted her, il is 10 the poetry Of her mind, aud
her fine perception OF musical expression,
that Jenny Lind is indebted fer her yenown.

Skill of the AncientS.

The pyramids of Egypt were so strong
that no earthquake has tent them, and The

these piles could be moved. By what com

Where, then, the machinery that raised
these immense piles?
Ventilation, with US, is OF exceedingly
modern invention but the ancients knew
and applied tie principles of ventiaiion.-
On the tops of the large iombs in the East
small holes or apertures were noticed by
travellers, but without knowing their use
Impressed with an idea that these apertures

of the tombs, and TO test the fact, cat and

For California.

The ship California Packet, OF Cutler, Me-,
sailed from Boston for California and
Oregon, on the 4th INST. Among her pas.
sengers, were sixteen unmarried females and
about twelve married females, with about
fifteen children from the ages OF one To IL
years. The Evening Traveller says, of the
men, passengers and crew, there are about
l75- making total of about 250--two-thrGs
of the whole being from the Stale of Maine.
OF the cargo OH board, she has about Sl5,-
600 on freight, consisting Of lumber, bricks,
coal, cases of goods, and Two large whale-
boats. The company also have on board
number of house-frames, quantity of lum-
ber, also materials for building saw mil,
farming utensils, &c. &c. They have also
two Of Forbes new machines for dislilling
salt water into fresh.
All the company, male and female, are
shareholders in the ship, and she is manned
by her own company, Capt. Thomas Street,
of Portland, skiIful navigator, being sailing
master, A band of music is made up from
the company. The persons who compose
this company are the right sort 10 populate
California and Oregon, and we have no doubt
they will meet with good success in that
far-distunt land. They deserve it, certainly.

The Last Word.

The las: word is the most dangerous Of in
fernal machines. Husband and wife should
no more fight 10 get it, than they should
struggle for the possession of lighted bomb
shell. Married people should study each
others weak points as skaters look ont for
the weak partsyin the ice, in order to keep
off from them Ladies who marry for love
should remember that the Union Of angels
with women has been forbidden since tho
flood The wife is the sun of the social sys-
tem Unless she attracts there is nothing 10
keep heavy bodies like husbands from flying
off into space. The wife who would rightly
discharge her duties. must never have a soul
aboye "but,ons." The liberties of England
have been so won by mutual CONCESSIONS
Let the husband who would acquire the
privilege of asking friends to dinner without
notice, remember this when his wife hints
at new bonnet. The wife's want is al
ways the husbands opportunity. Don't trust
too much TO good nature when you get into
an argument.
The Indians produce fire by rubbing the
driest slricks. Sugar is the substance most
generally dffnsed though al natural products

provision of Nature. Punchs Packet Book.

posted, and the aura sacra flames is bound
still to draw thousands hiher from all parts
of the world.
The question, then, is one Of some conse-
quence Must the ranks be annually deci-
mated as they have been the past season
answer without hesitation, that ifere is
nothing in the climate or waters of Calilor-
MIA particularly unhealthy, and that there is
not another country on the globe Where me
could practice such a disregard OF all the
laws of animal economy with so much i'm
puniry and so small a per centa9e of deaths
as they have done here.
Let those coming here; as well as those
already in the country, make their arrange
ments to avoid pork diet, supply themselves
with beef or fish, salt if they cannot get fresh;
wheat; meal or bread made from it !; cheese
dried fruits when possible. and Indian corr
meal and rice. Let them boil instead of
frying their provisions, avoid alcohol, in ,0arm
tceather most especially; and instead of coffee
or lea, use chocolate with their meals.
Follow the instincts of nature by avoiding
severe labor ~ the heat of the day, and let
not the love Of gold stimulate TO an ovehaxng
oil the powers al any time, and l have no
hesitation TO guarantee as good health TO The
rev corners as the natives have enjoyed till
the last season, when having been subject
ed 10 the same influences, they have suffered
nearly as much as foreigners
There is one affllc,ion peculiar 10 this
country, which forgot TO mention, and that
is poisoning by the poison oak or Rhus Tor
icodendron, and poison-vine or Rhus Radicans
Scarcely any one who is susceptible to the
effects OF these plants escapes an inhiction,
owing 10 the great abundance of both, and
owing also to the broken down state Of the
system from the causes mentioned above
Even this is frequently fatal, and if not, it is
very difficult TO cure, as are all hurts, sores,
&c, from the same cause.
Whoever in coming to California will OBJ
serve the above simple rules, may stand as
good chance for health, as if he were
merely taking journey through the States.
or crossing the Atlantic.
There is one observation more, which is that
all should avoid taking powerful medicines,
whether sick or well, and rather trust to the
kindly efforts of nature, assisted by proper
regimen and diet. than 10 all the imaginary
and delusive effects of drugs. Many physi-
clans have made the discovery that patients
do not bear what is called active treatment
here. and for myself, can say that the only
incurable cases have met were those which
were made so by the so-caled remedies they
had taken.
