A fire occurred in San Francisco, in the CEN

and the loss was trifling.

From the New York Dutchman.
The happiest man in this world is supposed
TO be "nigger at a dance" In our opinion,
this rule is too limited. A "nigger" is not only
happy at dance but in every other position.
A darkey may be poor, but he is never low
spirited Whatever he earns he invests in fun
and deviltry. Give him dollar, and in less
than an hour he will have seven sbillings out OF
il in yellow neck ties or a cracked violin. There
is something in the African that sheds trouble as
a duck will water. Who ever knew "cullud
pussun" 10 commit suicide? The negro is
strongly given 10 love and jealousy; but he has
no taste for arsenic. He may lose his all by
betting against a roulette, but he don't find re-
lief for his despair white folks do, by resort
ing to charcoal fumes or a new bed cord, but by
visiting "de fair sex" and participating in the
mazy influences of "de occipul comvolutiOns Of

There are two classes Of writers--one who
have nothing to do, and the other who have
nothing to say. The latter are BY far the most
numerous. Force men to write only when they
think, and our folios would soon be reduced to-
primers.
A late visitor 10 Cuba divides the inhabitants
into two classes; one Of which makes living BY
manufacturing cigars, and the other by smoking
them. He says it is not uncommon to see wo-
men wean their babies with principles instead Of
caudle mixtures. Queer people, those Habnn-
erOs--wsll they are!
Mix Ignorance with sudden wealth, and we
produce chucklehead whose insolence will be
equal to hundred pounds TO the square inch
We can imagine no greater nuisance than an ill.,
bred man suddenly raised to the rank OF million
aire.
People who look into things, think they see
into them. Nothing, however, could be more
unfounded. The former requires nothing but
optics; the latter optics and brains. Let TWEEN
ty men look at the caloric engine, and not more
than one Of that twenty will see anything but a
huge mass Of iron, and an i'll smelling fre-sto-
ker.
Habits are more easily formed than they are
altered. 1t takes more time to abridge one book
than it does to write half-a-dozen. The same
remark will apply to letters. The only reason
why people write three-paged epistle, is be-
cause they have not time TO condense it into one.
1t may seem like paradox, still it's fact, that
almost every editor finds it easier 10 write half
column article, than he does to get up one that
contains only two or three paragraphs.
A western orator in late slang-wang address
to the unterrifed voters Of Cornopols, said that
to save his country, patriot should be willing
to die, even if it took his life. 1t is unnecessa-
nv to say that "them" sentiments met with
triumphant echo" from the assembled multi,
tude.
