The RourEs TO CALIFoRNIA. Among the num-
erous California adventures, it will not perhaps be
unnerestng TO know the quickest cheapest and best
routes to the gold regions. There are now running
permanently the following first class steamers be-
tween New York and Chagres, viz: The Empire
City and Crescent City of Howard and Sons Line.
The Ohio and Georgia of NJ. o. Roberts Line. The
Cherokee and Philadelphia of Rowland and Aspin-
wall's Line. The whole of which all substan-
,iai and fast steamers, and commanded by men of
we'll known ability.
Tho price of passage by the Howard line is $65
in the s,eersge, and $50 1875 in the cabins. The
steerage includes mattresses on board. The prices
by the Roberts line are, state room berth, 3 100; ;
ssandee berth $50; steerage S 50-also including
bedding and board. By the Aspinwall line, after
saloon, 1925; forward saloon, 100; lower cabin,
ESQ.,. The prices by the Law line lower than by
she others, because these steamers do not go direct
Cabin passengers are allowed eight, and steerage
passengers six cubic feet of baggage without charge
bat the difficulty of getting it the Ishmus is
very great. The cost is about 25 cents per pound.
Tho passage across is made in two or three days,
at cost of about 8 25, by the steamer Orus or by
canoes to Gorgona or Cruces, and thence foot,
by mules and horses to Panama, at which place the
"Trlbune" says by hiring a room a person cdn live
for about - or $5 per week. by boarding at res
serasnt. On the Pacific the following steamers are
running, and the balance to be there soon: The
Oregon Panama, California. Tennessee, Unicorn and
NdIoilE6 VI OOWldNO ana ASpeOWdllS line, Sarah
Sands and New Orleans. of Howard & Sons line,
Columbus and 1sthmus, of NJ. D. Roberts line-ad-
ded to these there more to be sent round the
Horn to join Howard & Sons line.
Tho prices on the Pacific are the same in all the
above steamers: First cabin, 800 second cabin o,
sseerage, 8 $50. Passengers allowed ten cubic
feet Of baggage. Freight in the Howard line is tax.
On at % per foot, and probably in the others at the
same price.
The Aspinwali steamers are full on the Pacific
side, up to May. The Howard steamers are also full
to May. and it is doubtful if steam passage could

SUPPLEMENT- I'd THE HERALD Of THE TIMES.

pThe lecture on Thursday evening bo-
fore the Mechanics Association was by
Professor Rogers, Of Boston. His subject
was " Coal, +" and the lecture was ilustrat-
ed by a variety of beautiful diagrams. No
Scientific subject can be understandingly
explained in single lecture, because its
6rst outline principles could hardly be dis
tincty laid down in the short space Of On
hour. Professor Rogers gave a very
clear and beautifully expressed idea of the
formations of Coal within the earth's bos-
ON, showing what had produced il, how it
was mined, ard concluding with an eulogy
upon its uses. The profound attention
which the audience paid was indeed a
marked compliment TO the lecturer for, OF
dinarily, a promscuous asssmblage soon
weary Of what is termed the dry and alb
siruse delineations ofsny and every Scien-
tifc subject But IT was not 80 on this oc-
cssion, and we have every reason TO be-
lieve that all regretted that it so soon closed.
1t cannot be expected that an audience
should obtain general knowledge Of any
Science from single lecture, and hence
many argue their ImpracticabiIiiy but we
disagree with such in this belief, although
gener and full knowledge cannot be
gathered, still, very much useful and val
liable knowledge is sthus gathered and treas
ured, which people, in the mass would
not Otherwise possess SO that such lec-
lures are valuable, and are productive OF
great good IN community.
Professor Rogers language was classic
and beautiful, and throughout he exhibit
ed the learning Of the scholar, and the deep
thought Of the student. He impaired much
interesting Geological information, aside
from that Immediately connected with his
subject, particularly in regard to EARTH
quakes, volcanoes, &c.

UFSome surprise has been expressed
by many individuals who do not know our
Representative, the Hon. GeorseG G. King,
as well as we do, that his name was not
reported upon the las, vote gwen for Speak
er. In order to remove all doubts upon
the subject 10 the minds OF every one, we
repeat wha, we stated to these persons
who mentioned the subject TO US. When
we 6rst noticed that Mr.. KS nsme was
omitted in the list Of those who voted for
Winthrop, we counted tho names given
and found but 90, when 100 votes were re-
ported to have been cast for the WhiE
candidate, which, Of itself, satiefed US ,ha,
Mr.. Kings name was omitted accidenta "
by the printers. In addition TO this tho
names Of the scattering voieIs ard the abb
sen,ees were all given, and Mr.. King,
was moi mentioned among any of ,hem,-
and further, We find his name reported in
the Tribune with the others who voted
for Winthrop.
Mr.. King and his colleague, Mr.. Dixon,
voted upon every ballot as the Wings of
Rhode Island desired them to vote, for
Winthrop the Wing caucas nominee.

% The following communication should
have appeared in Saturdays paper, but was
accidentally omitted
Nupon, Dec. 2sth, ls49.
Mr.. FJI.or:
Allow me to correct mistake
(as it seems to me) which occurs in your
paper Of to-day, in an article replying to
one who signs himself Subscriber" rela.
tive to the application Of the word Christ.
m ne, to the festival of The Nativity of our
Lord
You have correctly stated the Romsh
idea Of the word, mass" but not that
which the Holy Catholic Church in primi.
tive times, held in her uso Of it. AsI
could show you. by a reference to many
anc Il, authorities, cited by Bingham, in
his great work on the Z" antiquities of the
Church, which is the standard book Of
this subject the term had originally the
same Specification as that Of Service, which
we W employ to designate the religious
exercises Of the Sanctuary. You rightly
say, that it comes from Latin derivative,
s;gnifying, sent, or dismissed, but you err,
first, in applying it exclusively to the Com
munion Servite-and then in giving the
Romish view Of Transubstantia,o and a
ropilialory Sacrifice, as that which the
Primitive Church maintained, on the sub.
jec, oflhe Lords Supper or Holy Eucharist
The truth is, that in ancient times there
were on every Lords Day two distinct ser
vices connected, however, in the order Of
time the one for the Catechumens, or
those who were candidates for admission to
membership with the Faithful, and others
not connected with the communion Of the
church, and the other for the Faithful or
Coumunicants. At the former all were
present bu, at the latter only tn Sc who
were to join in celebrating the Supper of the
Lord. Now 10 both these Services was
applied the name, mass the former be-
ing called, MiSSa Cdtechune1,or1am, or
Service for the Ca,echumens, and the lat.
ter, Missa Fidehwn, or Service for the
faithful and both were thus designated
because at the close of each the Deacon
solemny dismissed each class of worship
pers Christmas is therefore SO called,
because on that day we celebrate the Ser
uice Commemorative ofthe Birth Of Christ,
and not for the reason you have assigned.

A Runaway MArcH.-Ne met with
couple on Saturday last, on their way to
Maryland to get the aid Of a minister of
tina. State to relieve them Of their then cx-
listing emergency. They were from the
county of Rockbridgo. An obstinate Pa
no. willing to permit them to be made one,
they resolved 10 take the matter into their
own hauds. The groom gave US detail of
their trials on ,he way. At 8 O'Clock at
night, he conveyed the fair one from hor
fathers domicile in buggy, which broke
down few miles from his starting point
She was then placed behind him on a horse,
in which way they travelled TO Staunton,
20 miles, whore they took the stage for
Winchester, thence the railroad to Fredrick
city. he intended groom seemed very
soictous for tho speed of the engine but
We quieted his fears by assuring him he was
too far in advaece of the 'Old Gentleman
and offering our aid in case Of an exigency
He exhibited great care and respect for his
intended and we doub; not will prove him
self worthy Of her.
BY the way, our laws are defective upon
the license subject. We drive from our
State those who are determined TO marry,
and with them large amount of revenue
