A B'HoY AT ScHooL.-One of the ju-
veniles, considerably advanced, presented
himself not long since, for admission to a
public school near the Dry Dock. He
was shown to a seat, and in the course OF
the morning the master resolved to enter
into little examination of the youths
capacity and knowledge, prior to assign
ing him to class. Calling on the b'hoy
to stand up, he asked, 'sDo you know any
thing of grammar" 81 don't know
anything else." Very well! Now at
tend. In the beginning God made the
world; parse soorld.' All the b'hoy
knew of grammar was what he had heard
that very morning from the different
classes reciting around him-but he had
been taught that when he was fighting
in the park, he must strike out from the
shoulder right and left, and he would be
all right "Parse world?" he drawled
out inquiringly, so as to gain time. eyes.
In the beginning God made the world
parse world." "Wall, world is the bio

PoLITIcAL TENACITY.-Under this
head the North Pepin Independent "gets
off" a good thing, being the substance OF
an anecdote related in speech by some
politician:
At certain public meeting, the orator
was pronouncing an eulogy upon the char
acter of Washington. He spoke Of 'The
Father of his Country in terms of the
highest praise, and said that ''if he was
yet on earth, and again candidate for
the Chief Magistracy of our Union, such
would be the perfect trust of men OF all
political creeds in his integrity, that he
would receive the unanimous vote OF the
Union" At that moment he happened
to cast his eye upon an old man in the
audience, who had once been soldier In
the army of Washington. He was look
ing the speaker full in the face, and the
tears running down his cheek betokened
deep feeling. The speaker paused mo-
ment, and then, as if wishing to rivet his
assertion, he addressed the old veteran
thus :-"And you, my aged friend, who
cannot even now hear the name of your
beloved chieftain without deep emotion,
you would vote for your old commander,
would you not!
An expression of stern determination
passed over the countenance of the old
man, and, starting to his feet, he said =

ALKALI SoIL.-At a meeting of the
Santa Clara Agricultural and Horticultu-
raj Society, October 10th, L. Provost
read paper on the subject of cultivation
of beets in alkaline soil. Our agricultu-
raj readers will be interested in the fol-
lowing extract, which we clip from the
San Jose Tribune:
He stated on the authority of French
work on Agricultural Chemistry, that in
Tuscany, where there are extensive tracts,
of alkaline land, the soil is redeemed, and
entirely freed from the presence of alkali
by the cultivation of beets In three
years the alkali is completely absorbed by
the vegetable, which prefers this to any
other soil. The experience of several of
our citizens last year in the cultivation
of beets on such soil, goes to confirm the
correctness of this statement. 1t is re-
marked by the French author referred to,
that the beets so raised are equal to those
produced on other lands in every respect
except for the manufacture of sugar, and
are of very superior utility as feed for
cattle. Cows are very fond of them, and
when fed on them give milk of richer
quality, and in greater abundance.
San Andreas independent., 1857-11-14

Bar The Sonora Democrat gives the
following receipt, by which every one can
test the sulphurets and pyrites found in
quartz: "Saturate piece of paper in
salt water. After placing the sulphurets
in crucible, or on shovel, or on sheet
iron, wrap them in the paper, and cover
the whole with salt. This prevents the
fine gold from passing off in the fumes of
the sulphur Then heat them to a red
heat. After crushing in mortar, apply
nitric acid. This will destroy everything,
leaving the gold at the bottom

A NEW DRIII.ING MAcu1Sr-Tbt

A New DRILLING MAcHINE.-The
San Francisco Times and Talk, describes
the action of new Drilling Machine,
which is worked by compressed air, and
is capable of drilling hole IL inches in
diameter, in the hardest granite, at the
rate of nearly two inches per minute
The editor saw it at work upon a loose
stone, and with a dull drill, upon which
it did not have fair opportunity to dis
play its wonderful boring qualities; yet
1t drilled hole at the rate of eleven
inches in twelve minutes. The drill
gives two hundred strokes in a minute,
making one revolution at every fifteen
strokes. The conclusion of the blow is
not transferred to the machinery, but ap-
pears to have the elastic force of blow
produced by muscular power. The COM
pressed air, by which the drill is driven,
being conducted through tube, by ex-
tending the tube, the drill can be carried
any distance into tunnel, while the ma
chlnery stands on the outside If this
machine possesses the merit which is
claimed for it, it will be of incalculable
benefit in mining operations in this State.
1t Is called Goulding's Patent Drilling
Machine. 1t is also stated that Goulding
has applied the same principle to a quartz
crusher, and that the result is quite salts
factory.
