ORIGIN OF WHEAT.-A most cur,ous
and able dissertation upon the origin of
wheat completely justifies the views We
have held; for, although it does not show
that oats change into rye. as many believe,
and offers no support to some other spec
ulations of the same kind, nevertheless it
demonstrates, beyond all further question,
that wheat is itself transmutation of
kind of wild grass. Nj. Esprit Fabre,

The worth Of Woman.
FROM THE GERMAN OF SCHILLER.

Honored bewoman she beams on the sight
Graceful and fair, like being of light;
Scatters around her wherever she strays,
Roses of bliss on the thorn-covered ways;
Roses of Paradise sent from above, Love.
To be gathered and twined in garland of
Man, on passions stormy ocean,
Tossed by surges mountain high,
Courts the hurricanes cOmmotlon,
Spurns at reasons feeble cry,
Loud the tempest roars around him,
Louder still it roars within,
Flashing lights of hope confound him,
Stuns with life's incessant din.
Woman invites him with bliss in her smile,
To cease from his toll and be happyawhile;
Whispering wooingly -"Come to my
G not in search of the phantom of po wer;
Honor and wealth are illusory--come'
Happiness dwels in the temples of home.
Man, with fury stern and savage,
Persecutes his brother man,
Reckless if he bless or ravage,
Action, action-stll his plan.
Now creating, now destroying,
Ceaseless wishes tear his breast;
Ever seeking-ne'er enjoying;
Still to be, but never blest.
Woman, contented in silent repose,
Enjoys in its beauty life's flower as it blows
And waters and tends it with innocent
heart, Tart;
Far richer than man with his treasures of
And wiser by far in the circles confined,
Than he with his science and lights OF the
mind.
Coldly to himself sufficing,
Man disdains the gentler arts, .
Knoweth not the bliss arising
From the interchange of hearts.
Slowly through his bosom stealing,
Flows the genial current on.
Till by ages frost congealing,
1t is hardened into stone.
She, like the harp that instinctively rings,
AS the night breathing zephyr soft sighs
on the strings, [reply,
Responds 70 each impulse with steady
Whether sorrow or pleasure her synpa-
thy try, ance play,
And teardrops and smiles on her counten-
Like sunshine and showers of morning
in May.
Through the range of mans dominion,
Terror is the ruling word
And the. standard of opinion
Is the temper of the sword.
Strife exults, and pity bIushng,
From the scene departing flies,
Where the battle madIy rushing,
Brother upon brother dies.
Woman commands with milder control;
She rules by enchantment the rea Inns of
the soul, smile,
AS she glances around in the light Of her
The war Of the passions is hushed for
awhile, [cease,
And discord, content from his fury to
Reposes entranced on the pilo VS. of peace.

SULPHUR IN BLEACHING.-Why is sui.
phur used in Ileaching2 Because, when
burned, its fumes combine with the oxygen
of the atmosphere, and thus produces sui
phurous acid gas. This first reddcns blue
colors and then destroys them, it is much
used in whitening silk and straw work
According to Pliny, it was used in bis
time for bleaching wool. Upon some
coloring matters, however, as that Of
cochlneal, sulphurous acid has scarcely
any action; and when it does destroy
color, the original tint may often be re-
covered by stronger acid. A red rose,
for instance, is bleached by dipping it into
a solution of sulphurous acid; but the
color is restored by immersion in diIuded
sulphuric acid.

The LAST OF THE STUARTs.-It is un-
derstood that the nearest of kin to the
Stuarts, now living, is the present King
Of Sardinia, and that the last descendant
in the direct line, was Cardinal York,
who died some time since in Rome, and
was inferred in the Vatican, where a tomb
is erected to his memory, inscribed,
"Henry TX, King of England" 1t is
said that George the IV treated the Car
dinal very generously, and paid him an
unusual pension-and that the tomb which
claims for the last of the Stuarts the title
of King of England, was paid for by
George lV. This fact is conclusive that
the RomiSh Church has never acknow
lodged the reign'ng family, as it cannot
be supposed that George w conceded that
Cardinal York was King of England.

From the Illinois State Register, pub
llshed at Springfeld:
"The telegraph few days ago brought
intelligence of the election of james A.
McDougal to Congress from the State of
California. Later advices by mail here
confirm the remort.
This news is cheering to the democracy
ofthis region of country. Mr.. McDougal
emigrated to California from Chicago,
where he had resided for several years
previous to his departure to the great
Ophir of the farther West.
Mr.. McDOugal was for several years
Attorney General of this State under
the old constitution, in which capacity he
distinguished himself as a lawyer in the
prosecution of criminals.
After surrendering that Office he obtain
ed very extensive civil practice, and at
once assumed Lis proper place in the
front rank of his profession. His cotem-
poraries unanimously admit that he had
no superior at the bar in this State.

year, small tooth on each side. In the
fourth year the large teeth are six in num-
