The source from whence this poison, which

Household Words:

ing leaves, and short, crooked stem. In the

rich, orange colored berries, about as large
as golden pippins; the rind is hard and

which are the fat, round seeds, not an inch

with very min ute silky hairs. The Germans
fsncy they can discover resemblance IN

but the likeness is purely imag mary. Tho

Minerals In Virginia.

Virginia has q limestone valley Of nearly
three hundred miles in length and twenty
miles in width; also about - 600 square
miles of coal field lying on the tributary va
tiers of the Ohio. Let US glance ct the gee
gra phical position Of her coal deposits re!a
tive to the future destiny Of the Republic
and one will have some idea Of the intrinsic
wealth embedded there. This immense Goa
field, which is part Of the UPPER OHIO coal
field, is scooped out By large navigable
streams to the depth Of l 900 !cet, exposing
rich deposits of camel coal and Iron.ere. A
series ofswels in the coal measures keeps up
the workable beds of Goa! above water free
for miles before they disappear beneath the
Ohio. The whole is covered up with deep
rich vegetable soil, sustaining magnificent
growth of trees, such as black-walnut, locust,
poplar, maple, cherry, chestnut, oak, beach,
birch, (mouutain mahogany white spruce,
lynn, and curled maple. TIE State of Fir-
GINA embraces the central portion OF the
Appalachian range OF mou9tains. Hence
she has thicker and richer beds and veins OF
minerals than any of the neighborins East

John Dean and tho Newspapers.

John Dean, who married Miss Il Scr, has
called upon the editor of the IN. \ Times,
to depreeate the unhand.Omo illusions to
him made in paragraph copied from Dos
ton paper into that Journal. Mr.. Dean en-
Joys a situation in the New York custom
house, and resides with his wife in Williams
burg, and is annoyed Ivy these statements,
because they rob him Of that seclusion which
he and his wife are most anxious TO make
their own. The paper in question saws -
''Mr. John Dean Is not at q II the offensive
looking fellow he has been pictured. Ga
the contrary, he is comely, smart looking,
sober we'll dressed young man, iis to pass
muster any where. His hair is black-not
red, as the sensaticnist who pcuEed the para
graph alluded to states-and, were 1t not
for his accent. he would pass for an Ameri-
can. Mr.. Dean thinks there would not have
been so much said about him were it not that
he is Irish; but he could not help that if be
would, and would not if be could. MIR.
Dean came to Williamsburg in hopes of re-
alizing that privacy for himself aud his lady,
which, after the unpleasant bruiing Of their
names far and wide, they felt to bc so desra-
BILE; but even in this, it appears, be las thus
far been disappointed. At all events We

Two aronauts, who ascended in balloon
from Patterson, n. j., few days ago, have
published On account Of their observations
among which We quote the following as most
remarkable.
Gas we neared the city we selected the
Central park for our landing place, and be-
gan to descend. AS we descended We cross

nomenon was noticed, the bed of the river

The editor of the Patterson Guardian, who
seems to have had u conversation With the
aronauts, says: s..
what they Fay of seeing the bottom OF tne
North river. is of interest. All the bottom
was observable to them as they passed over

A Sc. Louis Romance-Bretzel

A 81. LOutS homhnCe-Dres1ei rFis@'
The St. Louis Republican records the death
of an old man in that city, and in regard to
bis life, furnishes the following:
Many years ago Baron Frederick Won Ger
tel, whose family was one Of the most indie
pendent and aristocratic in Saxony, fell 10
love with poor girl aud determined to mar.
~ her. He thus incurred the displeasure OF
his wealthy father, who, on learning OF the
proposed alliance, at once dislnherlted the
Young nobleman, and turned him from his
doors.
This sudden reverse exasperated and mad
deped the lover, and bidding o silent fare
we'll to the home Of his childhood, and with
out informing the object of his affection, he
bent bis course to this country. on arriving
here be joined the u s. Army, and served
10 years rs soldier. IL is said that his
bravery and true heroism on the field OF Mex
leo won the admiration of oil who bad oppor-
tupties to observe him.
At the expiration of the ten years service,
be returned to Germany, to ascertain how
the estate of bis family was managed. lie
found that his parents were in their graves,
and that the property was distributed equal:
" among his brothers and sisters, himself
being wholly overlooked and disregarded
in the will. To add to his dark fortunes, he
ascertsined that the girl who was the inno-
cent cause of his ruin, had married and
moved away. Won Oer,el's mind never fully
recovered from tho shock this intelligence
bad created.
Wandering in reason be returned to the
United States. and came to ST. Louis. Here
be was prostrated by violent sickness tor
some months. When be convalesccd he
found himself entirely destitute of means
His pride was thoroughly broken down, and
Tor a livelihood, the Baron actually took TO
selling "bretzels," kind Of pastry much IN
favor with the Germans. lie continued at
this paltry, but honest business, for number
of years, and gained the appellatlon OF
"Bretze Fritz"
Three years ago, having saved the snug sum
of 5000, and having met one OF the opposite
sex 10 whom he thought he could conhdo, and
whom be believed would make him o good
and faithful wife though she was several

One day a few months afterward, on going
home with his basket, be found that his wills
had eloped with a seducer, and not content
with bringing her husband to disgrace, bad
taken bis money ard everything of any value
about the house, leaving him the possessor OF
q basket of bretzels and dishonored hearth.
The old man, for he was now ftty.threes
years Of sge, quietly bore his new grief, and
again, with perhaps, an imprecation on the
false one, addressed himself to the one great
task of bis life-forgettipg.

Virginia Militia.

One hundred and thirty-fve Regiments of
the lS5 of the line, together with the gene.
raj officers heretofore reported, and the field
officers of FIVE regiments of cavalry and I'VE
of artillery, have been, up to this time, CON,
missioned under the new law which passed
last March.
The organization is still going on, and
commissions are being issued from the Ad-
iutant Generals office as rapidly as they can
be got out Strange to say, the 18th Regl'
ment, city of Richmond, one Of the Oldest in
the State, has not yet been organized, al
though the conductors were appointed BY
the court at the proper time.
From oil the indications it may be e1pec-
ted that the organization will be completed
within the year, and large volunteer force,
particularly of cavalry, be also commission
ed, for the law suits the people and they are
coming up to it manfully. James l.. Kemp
er, its author aud champion, who gallantly
fought it through the two sessions OF the
| legislature almost single banded, has re-
ceiyed. as he deservet-and as the Legisla-
ture intended he should receive at their
hands the appointment of Brigadier Gene
raj from the Governor.
The most important provision Of the law
is the establishment CT system OF training
the officers by competent Brigade Inspectors,
and, so far as heard from, the Drigadier Cen
1 erals have, without exception, selected tor
these important Offices the graduates of the
State Military Academy, many of whom
have also been appointed by the Governor IN
the Cavalry and Artillery reg ments. BY
means of these graduates all Of whom are
accomplished drill oifcers) the instructions
they have received at that fine State school
will be diffused Throughout! our whole militia
~ force, aud will no doubt induce many high
/ spirited young men not only to accept cut to
seek commissions in our militia.
| Before many more months have passed the
gallant old State, SO lately detenceless, can
bring into the field 100000 iuviucibes to
maintain her sovereignty and her rights or
to defend the country, as the case may be.
The amount of work thrown by this new
law on that excellent officer. the Adjutant
General, is enormous, and the pay he re-
ceives therefor utterly inadequate. The &c
vernon has met the contingency as far as was
practicable out of the fund at his disposal
bu. still the amount does not equal what.
many clerks in stores in this city get.-Rtch.
