MECHANICS, INVENTORS, MANUFACTURERS, AND
FARMERS.
The SCIENEIFIC AMERICAN has reached its
fourteenth year, and will enter upon a new Vol
ume on the llth of September 1t is the only
weekly publication of the kind now issued in
this country, and it has very extensive circula-
ton in all the States of the Union. 1t is not as
some might suppose from its title, a dry abstruse
work on technical science; on the contrary, it
so deals with the great events going on in the
scientific, mechanical and industrial worlds, as
to please and instruct every one. If the Me-
chanic or Artisan wishes to know the best ma
chine in use, or how to make any substance en-
ployed in bis business-if the Housewife wishes
to get recipe for making good color, &c.,
if the Inventor wishes to know what is going on
in the way of imprcvements-if the Manufac
turer wishes to keep posted with the times, and
to employ the best facilities in his busness-if
the Man of Leisure and Study wishes to keep
himself familiar with the progress made in the
chemical laboratory, or in the construction of
telegraphs, steamships, railroads, reapers, now
ers, and thousand other machines and appli-
ances, both of peace and war-all these desider-
ata can be found in the SCIENTIFIC AMERICAN
and not elsewhere. They are here presented in
reliable and interesting form, adapted to the
comprehension of minds unearned in the higher
branches of science and art.

Unnumber Kisses.
WRITTEN AND SUNG BY MISS MARY PROVOST.

Come birdie and give me kiss, love,
For sweeter sure never girl gave,
But why in the midst of my bliss, love,
viii YOU ask me how many I'd have?
I'm not to be stinted in kisses,
So prithee, dear birdie, be kind,
For while | love thee beyond measure,
To numbers I'll neer be confined.
Count the bees that on Hybla are playing,
Count the flowers that enamel the field,
Count the flocks that on Tempe are straying,
Or the grain that rich Sicily yields,
Count how many stars are in Heaven,
Go number the sands of the shore,
And when so many you've given,
| still shall be asking for more.
To heart full of love let me hold thee,
To heart which dear birdie is thine,
In my arms let me ever enfold thee,
And encrcle thee round like vine.
What JOY can be greater than this is?
Ny life, on thy lips shall be spent;
For the wretch who can number his kisses,
Will always with few be content.

Bss- Within our borders lie one hundred and
sixty thousand of square miles; an area be it
remembered, surpassed in extent by only one
State in the American confederacy Our sea
coast is more than eight hundred miles in ex-
tent and can boast of fisheries equal to those of
New England Our climate is of unexampled
salubrity. Here we have neither the malaria
of the South, or the fevers of the West, nor the
freezing wintry winds of the North. Here for
eight months of the year one may enjoy health
and comfort with no other shelter than such as
the canvass walls of a tent afford The soil
produces every variety of fruit, grain and vege-
table known to the tropics, or temperate zone.
Strange, yet true, within the limits of the same
State, you will find growing, unsheltered be-
meath the sky the orange, grape, fig, apple,
almond and peach. Wheat, rye, oats and Indian
corn, are produced amongst us, together with
cotton, hemp and tobacco Even in the mines,
which, according to the popular idea abroad, is
a sterile region of rock, we have an ample
abundance of the finest land for gardening pur-
poses.-S. r. National.

KILLED A GRIZZLY AND STRUCK Rich LEAD.
Under the head of a ''lucky shot" the Sonora
Democrat relates the following:
John Minear, former resident of Sonora, but
now sojournng in the mountains, one day last
week shot a grizzly-the second one, by the
way he had killed during the week-which
rolled down the mountain some distance, lodg
ing against ledge of quartz rock. While en-
gagged in skinning the animal his attention was
attracted to some broken pieces ofthe rock con-
tanning gold. On further examination along the
ledge, by knocking off the moss, he was made
aware that he had found lead of astonishing
richness which he at once took possession Of

THE MAGIC OF ART.-The memory of Horace
Vernet, the great Painter, is marvellous, and at
the end of twenty thirty years he can at will
recall form, movement, an attitude. One of
his friends said of him:
q His head is like chest of drawers; he opens
it, looks, and finds each memory in its proper
place"
One morning he ran against the Marquis de
Pastoret on the quay of the Louvre. The latter
uttered exclamation of surprise.
What has become of you, my dear fellow :?
One meets you nowhere. 1t is years since
have seen you. Have You just arrived from
India? 2"

six months since l have shaken hands with

"May be hanged if you have not dreamt of

q Yes lady, and very handsome one, too.

Horace then took his memorandum book, and
with pencil made rapid drawing which he
had no sooner shown to the Marquis than the
latter exclaimed
| ''Good heavens yes, it is the Duchess de

to her hotel, on the Quay Voltaire, and we did

"Pooh that is only a trife," replied Horace

Something New.

The following good story is told by a cores
pondent of the San Francisco TELEGRAM. who
voucqes for it's truth;
1t was the most exciting period of the war
with Mexico. Harvey was on an important mis-
sion. He was bound to make his point. but
found it impossible to do SO, on his jaded. worn
out animal. As luck would have it, he fell in
with an American team in the very worst mart

soldier-in his situation. Six f ne looking mules.
his own animal exhausted, and his Journey not
half accomplished What must he do 4 De-
mand a new animal, and if refused, kilYN own
er? No. That would be both rsxocfy and
murder. Riding up to the teamster, who was
moving comfortably along, Harney commanded
hslt, ar, fixing his eyes upon the finest of the
mules, said:

PrsGou must, and then agin, praps you

Wild rough looking individual, standing over

"but must have him."
"Cant trade, stranger. l won't trade, nuthern
"Then / will buy him at your own price, re-
sponded Harney, impatiently, but must have

"Can't buy him, nuther, stranger. Hain't got

"Then," answered the excited General, eying
the burly teamster from head to foot, 81 will
fight you for him! for must have the animal"
"Now, stranger, you are talkin' kinder natu-
raj. like man of sense" replied the teamster.
The proposition to fight being considered en-
tirelv correct, the couple hitched in, and for
about fifteen mnutes-so goes the story-some
pretty lively pummelng was witnessed. At the

and gold mounted sword, marched up, and tax

"Old boy, you ought to feel proud, for you have
done what no other man has ever done before
you"
"What's that?" asked the astonished team
ster.
" Whipped General Harney" ." was the answer.
And without another word the gallant old SOL

and rode off.

CURIOUS PITcHER-Prominen among the Gu

Gen. jackson, is Il wooden pitcher remarkable
both on account of the artistic skill displayed
aud the celebrity of the tree from which the wood
was procured. 1t was made of wood from the
elm tree under which William Penn made the
celebrated Indian treaty. The pitcher was pre-
sented by the coopers of Philadelphia; and, al
though not larger than common cream-jug it
contains seven hundred and fifty slaves. The
hoops, lid and handle are of silver, and the bot
