God bless the Ladies, one and all,
love them very dearly
This prayer Is always ON my lips;
''0h may they intrease yearly ~
They are the founts Of earthly joy
As well a. earthly iroublcs,--
Those last like all oar eriefs and pains)
Dissolve away like bubbles.
The joys remain through all our lives,
Preserved by woman's love
And when We lay rs down TO die,
We find them sti.l above.

living out West for good strong recommend
alton Of bis the manufacturers "Balsam."
In few days he received the following, which
we call pretty strong:
Dear Sir.-The land composing my farm has
hitherto been considered so poor that Scotch
man could not get living off it, and so stony
that we had to slice our potatoes edgeways; !;
but hearing Of your balsam, | put some on
the corner of ton acre lot, surrounded by a
worm-fencc, and in the morning found that
the rock had entirely disappeared, neat stone
wall encircled the field, and the rails were split
into oven wood and piled up in my back yard.
l put half an ounce into the middle of
huckleberry swamp; in two days it was well
cleared of, planted with corn and pumkins,
and a row of peech trees in full blossom through
the middle.
As an evidence of its tremendous strength,
would say that it drew striking likeness of

all over his stomach, drew load of potatoes

DISCOVERY OF SALTPETRE IN CALIFORNIA
ern coast counties, says the Sacramento Union,
that on the head waters of the Pajaro river,
near Gilroy, saltpetre has been discovered in
the alkaline ponds and the earth of that vicin-
ity. The head waters of the Pajaro, forming
the boundaries of Santa Cruz, Santa Clara,
and Monterey counties, take their rise in the
springs and lakes of the Plain of Tequisqutas,
(Mexcan for soap earth,) and the soil Of the
plain, which forms the ranches of Oreaga, Pa
ducah, and Sanches' heirs, is found to be
strongly impregnated with soda, saltpetre, and
other alkaline substances, whence its name.
The rancho of Tequsquitas is said to have been
used for twenty years before the American
flag was raised, for making very superior
quality of soap. The salpctre, as our inform
ant learns, is often found in large crystals at
the bottom of the liquid leeched out of the
earth. The saltpetre of commerce is found in
Persia, Egypt, Syria, and Bengal, in similar
soils to the dry plains around Gilroy. In the
district of Tirhoot in Bengal, it is observed 10
form upon the surface of the ground in silky
tufts and white incrustations during the hot,
dry months succeeding heavy rains. 1t is
gathered by sweeping the surface with brush
brooms, after which it is manufactured for
commerce by dissolving it in water, purifying
and crystalizing it. 1t is then put into coarse
bags and shipped down the Ganges to Calcut-
Ia, whence it is sent to the Tarkets of Europe
and America. The annual exports of saltpe-
tire from Calcutta amount to over twelve mil
lions of dollars per annum, and during the
Russian war the article brought very high
prices.
This discovery may be regarded Of great
value to the military resources of the United
States on the Pacific, as the country possesses
immense mines of sulphur. AS the willow,
for making charcoal, is the most abundant tree
in California, it will be no difficult matter to
make as much gunpowder as will supply the
domestic demand Of the State and the wants
of the United States Government in case of a
war. IHra
