A CURIOUS Acc1DErf, We have often
heard of men being killed in battle by the
wind of cannon balls Witch passed very near
them, but the following, which happened at
the battle of Masaya, in Nicaragua, is of a
little different character. Captain George
Leonard, was in the thickest of the fight, at
the head of his men, when he dropped insen-
sible upon the grpSARd. A report reached
headquarters that9he was dead. Shortly af-
terward rumor had it that be was not dead,
but had been shot in = the nogth. The fact
was he had not en,toucbed; but bullet
passed SO closely by Ms lips, that it took the
breath completely out OF this body. After
lying about ten minutes3sRRe recovered and
was so unconscious of the cause OF his fall
that he attributed it to ] ct of appoplexy."

The TUNNEL BoRER.-In the Iowa Hill
News, of the 18th January, we find the fol-
lowing:
We have occasional inquiries as to the pro-
gress and prospects of Stems Tunnel Borer.
We will reply to one and all that the ma
chine is making some little progress, and the
engineer is very confident that be will sue
ceed in boring the rock. The rock where it
is now located is of the hardest kind, and it
was found that the knives were not hard
enough to do the work Others will be sub
stituted, and experiments tried, to make it
successful. Machinists and miners are now
divided in their opinions of its ultimate sue
cess. We hope, and not without faith, that
it will succeed. 1t is an important item to
the hill miners, and should receive every en-
couragement from our miners and citizens.

Church, and Aate.

1t is somewhat remarkable feature in the
present historyof this comment that there
is just'at this time a very general movement
on the part of several of the leading Cath
olic governments against the political
influence of that church. IN Mexico the
church is at open war with the government
the church militant prevailing over the
church peaceful. In that country the gov
ernment has already confscated upwards of
s$35. 100000 of church property, and in all
probability has just commenced its work. In
New Grenada the church appears to be rather
IN the ascendant. 1t has openly entered the
political arena, and placed one of it's most
AetiVe agents in the Presidential chair, in
opposition to the old administration. In
Peru it is refusing its aassent to the newly
adopted constitution, which limits its privil-
eges, and is fomenting rebellion. In Chile it
has refused to recognize the supremacy of the
civil power and an open collision with the
government has just been avoided by an as
tute evasion of the point in dispute. This
anti-church movement is only one of the nu-
merous processes of social and political dis
integraton which is going on in nearly all
the countries south of the States comprising
the American Union.

McteOric stOnes--Their Peculiar Char

Much speculation exists as ito the char
acter and properties of meteoric stones
''Their substance" we quote,fron the Scien-
tific American, ''is composed of.yarious min
eral ingredients, which are identified with
matters of familiar occurrence npon the earth,
but amidst these iron is found itEFeat abun-
dance as it is never found oti.tbR earth, that
is, in native or nearly purk thetallie and
uncombined state. On the. terrest strial sufzi
face iron is always mingled with divers matt
ters, from which it has to be extracted by
art when tits required as pure metaE The
omnipresent and corrosive oxygen of the air
alone prevents it from maintaiRing such con-
dition long this rusts andseats it away
Oxygen and iron have so irresistibly strong
an attachment for each other that they in
variably combine when they are left togeth-
er. Thus, then, the unoxydized and purely
metallic condition of iron IN the @rolite
proves that it comes from "a situation in
which there is no oxygen that is, from be-
yond the bounds of the atmosphere, and that
it is, therefore, altogether I1ntsrrestrial, and
affords proof that the nebular Hypothesis is
not supported by chemistry, for if the moon
at one period formed of the same matter OF
which the earth is composed, it would have
an atmosphere like the eaxkh but not quite SO
Dense"

The Legislature.

The assembled wisdom of the State is pro-
crossing with its legislative business as ra-
pidly as circumstances will admit. Very lit
tie business has as yet been completed. al
though they are laying out considerable
work for the session. There is an evident dis
position on the part of large majority of
the members to get through with the public
business as soon as possible, and thus make
short term of it. 1t is hoped that they will
fully carry out that determination, and in so
doing merit the thanks of their constituents.
The Legislature seems to throw watchful
guard around the State Treasury, by holding
all the officers connected Herewith strictly
accountable for every act, and to prevent
any unnecessary expenditures for the future.
We are inclined on the whole, to believe that
the present body intend to do, honestly and
fearlessly their duty, their whole duty, and
nothing but their duty.

m- A young man by the name of Patrick
Mcdonald, was brought from between Snow
Tent and Eureka to this viltagea few days
since with both of his feet bad i g'frOzen. He
was found in this condition by few Samari-
tan-hearted countrymen of 'his, who brought
him hither for relief, where he has been
kindly cared for.
DR.. Tompkins has since amputated one of
the sufferers great toes, since which he has
been speedily recovering. This young man
adds another to the number of many who
must have perished in the smountain storms,
had it not been for the timely sympathy of
those who fortuitoasly discoEered him in his
helpless condition.

ANCIENT CIvILIzATIoN.-There is nothing
new under the sun. The Thames Tunnel is
esteemed monument of modern enterprise
and mechanical skill, worthy of great and
civilized nation. What will the savans say.
when they learn that thousands of years ago
the Incas of Peru cut tunnel beneath the
channel of river, connecting the opposite
sides, undoubtedly work of great antiquity.
The authors of this work have disappeared.
the race is fast becoming extinct, and yet
these ancient remains exist, a continuing IL
lustration of the transitory nature of every
form of civilization which was not connected
with the knowledge of true religion. There
is no truth more indelibly engraven upon
the history of the world, than the depend
ance of permanent progress in art, science,
philosophy, and intellectual culture, upon
the knowledge and practice of the great
principles of virtue and religious truth.

SPECIAL NOTICES.

HollOlUay'S Pills operate benefcaly not only upon
the diseased organs but upon the constitution of the
invalid To quicken the torpid stomach, enable the
disordered liver to secrete due portion of health
bile, and remove obstructlons from the intestines
are important objects but Holoways Pills do more
than this. They recruit the stamina of the patient
and infuse tone and vigor into the whole vital ma
chinery. The animal spirits sympathising with the
physical powers become light and buoyant, and that
greatest of earthly blessings "a sound mind in a
sound body'' is the result. Thousands of persons
who have been cured of chronic dyspepsia and its at
tendant depression by this powerful Alternative and
tonic, know this to be literally true.

Our Immigration. &c.

During the past year 29,630 souls arrived
at the port of San Francisco from foreign and
Atlantic shores. OF this number nearly 5000
were women and children. The departures
during the same time amounted to 22,747,
leaving clear gain of 6883 souls to the
State. It is calculated that about 10000
persons came to the state across the plains,
the past season. This will give us an in
crease, in round numbers, Of 10000 persons
from emigration alone. The number of
births within the year have no doubt
greatly exceeded the deaths. It may be men
toned as a very significant fact that not less
than one hundred and eighty-six marriages
were solemnized in Sacramento during the
past year. The deaths during the same time
were 1928. The total annual number of
deaths throughout the state cannot much, if
any, exceed 5000
The increase of California by emigration
for the next four years will greatly exceed
that of the four years past Such a result
must inevitably follow from the improved
facilities for crossing the Plains, such as bet
ter roads, good wells of water, and the eff
forts of government to afford a more perfect
protection from the Indians. &c.
A private expedition, set on foot by New
York capitalists, will leave St. Josepb's on
the first of May next, for the purpose Of lly-
ing out stage route-indicating the proper
stations for we'll digging, the cutting of hay,
bridging, grading, &c. If this project is car
ried out, the first step will be taken in the
right direction to increase the population of
the State; and if stage line follows, as it
probably will we may expect larger emi-
grafton in '58 and '59, than has come into
California since 1S49l5O. The government
should, and doubtless will lend every assist
ance in its power to the expedition in ques-
ton.
decided increase of our population is
much needed for the proper development of
the immense resources of the State Our
mines continue, and will continue for ages
to come, to reward labor higher than any
other country on the globe. Our soil has
been abundantly proved to be exceedingly
fertile, and our climate is almost unequalled
for its salubrity. The only obstacle to the
increase of emigration is the distance to be
overcome and the expensive nature of the
journey. Our people should never cease to
urge upon Congress the necessity for a rail-
way, which should be preceded by a good

Mr.. John Hyde, Jr., has given two lectures,
during the past week in Grass Valley in op-
position to Mormonism. The lectures ere
delivered in the Congregational meeting
house, which was crowded on both evenings.
The first lecture was devoted more partcu-
larly to the subject of Polygamy as practiced
by that singular and deluded people. The
second was more general in character, and
descriptive Of Salt Lake City, with some of
its notables, their religious peculiarites and
social condition. In the course of this lecture
he took an inquisitive peep into the domi-
Gil and domestic relations of Brigham Young.
The lecture was replete with interest and in-
formation. Mr.. Fl. fully explai rs to bis au-
diences his present position and ultimate de-
signs. He has been Mormon himself until
recently. His parents and friends are still
Mormons. Reading and reflection has open
ed his eyes to the deluscns of that singular
tiOns in their true light. Mr.. II. never was
a polygmist, and ever sirce he arrived at the
state of manhood has looked with many
doubts upon the whole system. 1t is but a
few months since he became thorough and
active denouncer of his former faith, but bids
fair to prove a troublesome customer to
Brigham and his adherents. He is young
man of decided talent and considerable en-
ergy. His present mission is deserving
one, and his efforts to stop the tide of emf
grafton to Utah should meet with liberal
encouragement.
