The Power OF MEMoRY-The case of Car
stem Niebuhr, the oriental traveller, father of the
historian and statesman, furnishes striking ex-
ample Of the revived recollection of scenes and
events long past: I-~.
When old and blind, and SO feeble that he had
barely strength to be borne from his bed to his
chair, the dim remembrance of his early adven-
lures thronged before his memory with such
vividness, that they painted themselves as pic
lures upon his slightless eyeballs. AS he lay
upon his bed, pictures of the gorgeous orient
flashed upon his darkness as distinctly as though
he had just closed his eyes to shut them out for
an instant. The cloudess blue of the eastern
heavens bending by day over the broad deserts,
and studded by night with southern constella-
tons, shone as wildly before him, after the
lapse of half century, as they did upon the
first Chaldean shepherds whom they won to the
worship of the host of heaven; and he dis
coursed with strange and thrilling eloquence
upon those scenes which thus in the hours of
stiffness and darkness were reflected upon his

WOLVES IN MA1NE-A correspondent of
the Machias Union says that the accommo-
dation stage and passengers from Rockland
were, few days since, driven back from the
woods near Indian river, and detained over
night BY a large detachment Of wolves.
The Brunswick Telegraph relates that, on
Friday last, Col. Campbell Of that town, was
chased By q pack Of wolves while in the
woods not 4 half mile from his house,
Fonr of them came within twenty feet of
him, wherenpoh he turned Il bay armed
with an are, and his adversaries, safter some
RECOMMENDING and few low growls Of dis
appreciation concluded to forego their anti
icipated breakfast, and beat reluctant
retreat.

RICHES OF THE AMAZON VALLEY.-The New
York Chronica, a Spanish paper, contains an
interesting letter from a correspondent in ebay
chapoyas, South America, descriptive Of the
natural wealth in the valley of the Amazon
founded upon the personal observation Of the
author. We have had reports that expeditions
were organizing in California to seek for gold in
this valley. The writer says that after passing
the village of Balzas, the first in the Amazon
valley, he came to the settlement of Gallon.
Here he found more than sixty gold mines, none
of which are worked at the present day and
having made several diggings, he obtained a cas-
tellano of gold to the cdrga. In the village OF
st. Thomas twelve leagues to the eastward of
Chaychapoyas, he found an innumerable num-
Der of veins of gold, only few of which were
worked by the lazy. shiftless Indians of the
country. The hill of Sucahala, six leagues to
the south Of Chaychapoyas, is traversed by
great number of very rich veins Of silver. One
of these veins, about four inches in width and
more than two leagues in length, were estima-
ted to be twice as rich as those Of Cerro de Pas
co and Potosi. The opening Of this hill would
doubtless lead to the attainment Of immense
riches thousand miners could work here up
on their respective properties without molesting
each other. Rich quicksilver mines also aboun-
ded in the vicinity. =, aa Is, a,sss l5 +
The writer tells some remarkable stories about
the gold washings of Borja-a place about one
hundred miles from Chaychapoyas. He says
that on the instruction of the Borja Indians,
fourteen years ago, Col. D. D. Najar, started
with small force to chastise the rebels. He
was unsuccessful, however, in his endeavors to
find them, and being tired of his fruitless labors
was about returning, when he bethought him of
the fame of these gold deposits, and ordered one
of his soldiers to gather small quantity of sand
when what was his surprise to discover that
more than one-half Of it was pure gold When
the Indians of Boria were in a semi-civilized
state, they paid their taxes in gold, having
measure for that purpose, and the surplus they
threw into the river. From the river Chinchil-
pc to Barranca, about one hundred leagues, gold
is found all along the shores in various quanti-
ties, but more particularly in the stagnant pools
and on small islands, where the current is not
rapid enough to bear it away. In the town of
Moyobamba, almost every one is decorated with
rings of this gold, obtained from the Indians in
former days of peace, when . knife was givenin
exchange for handful Of gold dust.
At the present time the great washings are
occupied by the Huambisas tribes, a warhke
race who have descended from the higher val
leys of the Amazon. They areextremely agile,
tall and well formed, and support themselves by;
fishing, hunting and the culture Of the soil.
They possess one hill, says the writer, which
contains more than one hundred rich veins of
gold. Boston Journal, 7th inst. q Is :. s..

New RECIPE FOR WASHING MIxTuRE.-Take

New RECIPE FOR A WASHING MIxTURE.-Take
| two pounds of the best brown soap. Cut it up,
and put it into clean pot adding one quart OF
clear soft water. Set it over the fire, and melt
it thoroughly, occasionally stirring it up from
the bottom Then take it off the fire, and stir
in one table spoonful of real white-wine vinegar,
two large table spoonfuls of hartshorn spirits;
and seven large tablespoonful of spirits of tur-
pentine. Having stirred the ingredients well
together, put the mixture Immediately into q
stone jar, and cover it Immediately, lest the
hartshorn should evaporate. Keep it always
very closely covered
When going to wash, nearly fill six or eight
gallon tub with soft water, as hot as you can
bear your hand in, and stir in two large table
spoonsful of the above mixture. Put in as many
white clothes as the water will cover. Let them
soak about an hour, moving them about in the
water occasionally. 1t will only be necessary
to rub with your hands such parts as are very
dirty; for instance, the inside of shirt collars
and wristbands, &c.
The common dirt will soak out by means of
the mixture. Wiring the clothes out of this
suds, and rinse them well through two cold
waters.
Next put into wash-kettle, sufficient water
to boil the clothes, tit must be cold at first) and
add to it two more table spoonsfuls of the mix
ture. Put In the clothes after the mixture is
we'll stirred into the WATER and boil them half
an hour, at the utmost-not more. Then take
them out, and throw them into tub of cold
water. Rinse them well through this; and
lastly, put them into a second tub of rinsing
water, slightly blued with the indigo-bag.
Be very careful to rinse them in two cold
waters, out of the first suds, and after the boil
ing. Then wiring them and hang them out.
This way of washing with the soap mixture
saves much labor in rubbing; expedites the
business; and renders the clothes very white,
without injuring them in the least Try it.
