FIRE-PRooF GARMENTs.-Some experiments
have taken place at Paris to test contriv-
ance for protecting firemen from the action
of the flames, and enabling them to resist
strong heat 1t consists of gloves made of
amianthus-a kind of flamentous mineral
q helmet of the same material, fitting into
another of wire gauze, and a shield of suita-
Bile dimensions, besides other garments of
the same kind of materials. Three fremen,
having put on the gloves, were enabled to
carry iron bars, at a white heat, for three
minutes, without being obliged to let go
their hold. Straw was afterwards set fire to
in large cast iron cauldron, and continually
kept up, while fireman wearing the double
helmet, stood above the flames. which he
warded off with a shield Although thew
were at times above his head, he was ena.
bled to keep his post for minute and a half
at the end of which time his pulse, which was
at seventy two before the experiments, had
risen to one hundred and fifty two. Another
fireman followed, who, having covered his
forehead with piece of amianthus, was ena-
bled to resist the flames for three minutes
and forty seconds.

ES7 While the ladies of New York are en-
joying themselves in the healthful exercise of
equestrian trials, their sisters in Canada have
anew way of exercising their bodies, not less
effective. The Collngwood Journal says
that on the 18th of August, four ladies con
tended in boat race for prize of S25. The
bay was dotted over with every description
of boats, large and small. In the midst of
all appeared trim little white boat, in which
were seated two ladies dressed in white, with
out hats or bonnets, oars in hand, ready and
apparently anxious for the contest. Soon
another boat, black, and somewhat larger
than the other, launched out from the shore
with two lady rowers, also dressed for the
occasion with black straw hats, bare arms.
and as cool and calculating as you please.
AT the signal the firing of gun, the boats
started, and after an exciting race the black
came in some fifteen lengths ahead.

"PooR TOMS A-coLD."-An old hummer
named William Hooker alias "Old Tom"
says the Bulletin, was arraigned in the Po
lice Court Wednesday morning, as common
drunkard. When called on Eas to what he
had to say for himself, he replied that he
was not a drunkard, and that he had char
aeter of the very best description to be found
in the city. Judge Coon asked why he trem-
bled so, and said he did not believe he could
hold up his hand steadily. Tom raised his
arm, but it shook as if it were an aspen
bOugh, or as if struck with palsy and as it
fell shakily at his side, he said that he had
had to sleep on a cold, damp, asphaltum floor
all night, and no wonder ne shook. The
Judge replied that there was more than the
asphaltum floor concerned in those trembles,
and ordered the poor fellow to appear again
to morrow.

SAILING OF THE SLEAMER.-The steamer Jno.
L. Stephens left her berth for Panama, on
Wednesday morning, says the Telegram, at
lei o'clock. Folsom street wharf was crow
ded with people, male and female, horses and
carriages, baggage and hucksters. There
was q fight or two, and the whole formed a
scene of considerable excitement. One man
struck another in the eye with an apple, was
seized by the police; a friend came to the
rescue with sword cane, for which he was
arrested instead of the first offender. (he
was brought to the Police Office, and tears
came into his eyes when fined 800; but
they gave way to a smile when told the tlne
would not be enforced, as he was bound
home, and he left with a light heart ,
The steamer Antelope kept sailing around
the Bay until the steamer reached the heads,
when Capt James Whitney, late President OF
the Cal S. N. Co., took leave of large mum
Der of friends who had accompanied him out
there on the steamboat, and left for short
visit to the States. The passengers number
ed about 400, the vessel clearing with $50.

Is IT WINTER, OR Is IT SPRING g-N esterday
was the rainiest day we have seen for at least
eight months. Wet and cold and dreary and
desolate we trod the streets, in a hopeless
endeavor to find some cozy nook wherein 70
shelter oursef from the pitiless elements,
and forget for little while the long winter
before us. Suddenly we bethought ourself
of Qualey We stopped short in our tracks
We laid the index finger of our right hand
on orr forehead and stood for some moments
in an attitude of profound thought Last
Summer" said we, for we remember the eN-
act language in which we soliloquized-"last
Summer, when the thermometer stood at los,
and when the heat threatened to leave moth
ing but a grease spot of us, we invariably flew
to Qualey, under whose cool and judicious
treatment our fat was soon brought to proper
consistency. Now, in the name of all the
gods if man can do anything to make
snch weather as that not only bearable, but
IN absolute luxury-sureiyhe might do some
thing to keep fellow from freezing too.
Shivering, we sought him. The smile with
which he greeted us at the very threshold,
sent warm thrill to our hearts frozen core
We have read the " Arabian Nights and
Andrew jackson Davis great deal and it
may be that our head is a little turned but
for the life of us, while we sat at Qualey's,
yesterday, feasting on Strawberries and cream,
we could not tell whether it was May or Oc-
tober Reader, if you are hot, go to Qua
ley's and get glass of his ice-cream. If
cold, take cup of hot coffee. If hungry
call for a dish of oysters. If hot and cold
aud hungry, and troubled about many things,
Just call for q bowl of those great red, lus-
eious straw berries, fresh from the Oroville
gardens, and our word for it. you will &c
away happier and better man.
P. S.-Of course no man is expected to be
such brute as to go without his wife or his
sweetheart

doubtless superior; while Clay, in startling,
thrilling and passionate eloquence, surpassed.

Notwithstanding the Judge has a large fami.
ly, and Travelled all the way with an OK team,
he has encountered no serious trouble ON the
way, and we are glad to be able to state
that they have all enjoyed excellent health on
the route, and are in excellent spirits They
came the Noble route, which they found in
excellent order for travelling.

GEN. JACKSON AND RACE HoRsEs.-Gen en-
jackson, says a correspondent of the Red
Bluff Beacon, kept race course in one OF
his clover bottoms, and went through the
week to see his horses run, and on Sunday
would say to his guests, gentlemen, my
house is free to you to do as you please, but
as for myself, | am going to Church, and
he would go, and there was no pharisaical
religion about him, and no horses dwindled
down to ponies, either, on his farm.

left yesterday, for Ventosa the Pacific port
of the Tehauntepec route. The Oregon, says
the San Francisco Herald, will ply between
Ventosa and Acapulco conveying the New

with the mail steamer from Panama, and it i,
estimated will thereby be able to furnish us
with New Orleans and New York dates only
twelve or fifteen days old. The first arriya
by this new route will probably reach us by
the 18th November, and will create another
much desired Improvement in our steamship
arrangements.

ing and chowder excursion, and Mr.. Webster,
jolliest among the jolly, with his great, hear
ty voice, made the shores resound to the
singing of zip Coon" With what Titan
ic comicality that negro song came from his
lips, and how they roared with laughter, the
performer, perhaps, enjoying it the most of
them all

- The New York Trihnne Is ouite satiri

Us The New Y York Tribune is quite satiri
cal on G.. p. r. James, the clone horseman
novelist, who, it seems, is about to write q
novel, treating of southern institutions and
character, as q oounteracton to the influence
exerted by Harriet Beeeher Stoves eeIebrs-
ted "Dred.o We have no means of knowing
whether the contemplated work will be
fair one or not, but we are very sure 1t VIII
be quite as fair as Mrs. Stoves "Dred,' for we
certainly never saw any book, in the whole
range of modern literature, so full of gross
and palpable misrepresentation as that Mr.
James has undoubtedly had very fair OPP
portunity of forming an enlightened opinion
of the working of Southern institutions,
whether he has profted by it or not, for he
has been residing, a considerable time, in
their midst, having been located at Norfolk
Virginia, in the capacity of a Consul of Great
Britain, and having taken occasion to travel
pretty extensively over the Southern States.
He goes now as Consul to one of the Italian
States, where he will probably digest his ma
terials and throw off a novel which will pur.
port to be correct representation, in fiction,
of all the good and evil of negro slavery
1t remains to be seen whether it will eXagger-
ate as much in favor of that institution as
Mrs Stowe has exaggerated against it.
