CALIFORNIA GAMBLING.-The Marys-
vile Herald says that some time since a
gambler absconded from that place, leav-
ing all his baggage behind him. The
individual with whom it was left, after
waiting some time ior the return OF the
owner, concluded to examine it, which he
did in the presence of several individuals.
The first thing which appeared was a
roulette wheel, which on being taken
apart was found to be constructed SO
that by touching a spring, the bottom of
every I)x painted red would be made TO
rise, presenting a smooth surface, and
leaving the ball no alternative but to
drop into the black. Should the heaviest
betting be upon the black, the screw
might be pressed little harder, where
upon the bottoms of all the black boxes
would come up, and the ball must 60
into the red. The whole thing was so
ingeniously contrived as to present, un-
less taken apart, not the slightest appear
ance Of deception. Moving with the
smoothness of clock-work, the machinery
could never fail. With it a child might
play against the world, and win every
stake. Doubtless many a young man
who has gone out from our Eastern
States to the land of promise, buoyant
with health, and hope, and energy, and
has there earned by the sweat of his
brow an amount sufficient to render him
independent for life, has in a moment of
or forgetfulness, been in
duced to stake his hard-earned gains at
the table of a gambler-perhaps on such
IN instrument as this-and has thus been
robbed not only Of his wealth, but of his
nope, his energy, and his self-respect.
When these are gone, there is generally
no more upward tread. The course Of
the novitiate gambler is downward, reck-
Iessly and rapidly, in the paths of dissi-
patton and crime.

Sir CHARLES NAPIER.-Sir Charles Ma
pier has as little of the heroic look as any
man you ever saw. lie is stout, burly,
and square in figure. His features are
ordinary. His aspect that of mere
farmer, and his usual attire by no means
so good as many farmers would wear.
He has a very good-natured expression
of countenance. His hair is whitehall
is, such of it as remains. He has a
slight limp, from severe wound in the
thigh, received in the engagement, in
August, 1908, between his brig Recruit,
and the French corvette Diligent. He
is fond of rural life, and tas Lord Pal
merston observed) is an excellent farmer,
deep IN subsoil ploughing, the alienation
OF green and cereal crops, the use AID
abuse of manures, and all that relates to
country life. As a speaker he is energetic
and decisive, coming at once to the pur-
pose, and throwing out his sentences
rapidly and loudly, as if he were firing
red-hot balls into the enemy. At the
age of sixty-eight, the fine old fellow
goes out again to battle.-London Cor

PERUVIAN BATHING.-I took a stroll
along the beach, ard was much amused
at witnessing the singular mode adopted
by the ladies for the enjoyment OF water
excursion. The bathing men are Indians,
yery stout and robust: who, being divest-
ed of every species Of covering except a
pair of drawers, take to the water, each
carving lady upon his shoulders. The
men strike out to swim, and so do with
out inconveniencing the ladies, who float
on the surface of the water.
In this way they are carried for mile or
more, and appear to enjoy this novel mcds
of locomotion extremely.-Boneiti's IrG-

The SAILORS BIBLE.-After a recent
heavy storm on the coast of MaSsachusett,
sailors chest, which had been swept
from some wrecked vessel, was cast on
shore, and opened by those who found it.
a narrator says:
"But We found a precious treasure in
the sailor chest. No diamond of Brazil
no gem of the Western Coast so pre-
cious; yea, the price Of it was above ru-
bieS. 1t was the Word of God. We
were glad to see it. The sight sent tide
of pleasant thoughts through our hearts.
If we knew not where the tempest had
sent the body, we could not but hope this
precious Bible had sent the spirit to
heavenly home. No name yet met our
eyes; but these beautiful lines, cut out of
some book or periodical, were pasted on
the fly-leaf:
"A parents blessing on her son,
Goes with this holy thing
The love that would retain the one,
Must 10 the other cling,
Remember, tits no common toy,
mothers gift! remember boy
I'm company with the Bible we found
a daguerreotype Of lady-beyond ques-
ton the mother of that son, the giver of
that book. As we gazed on the placid
features, VIC could not but think these
beautiful lines were placed there ty her
whose image was now before us. Her
own sound and pious heart had made this
gift, and sought an expression of maternal
love in these lines. A pious mothers
blessing with such gift ~
