Prison LIFE-MEcHANIc AIRS
We saw yesterday in the corridor of the
jail a beautiful miniature war brig, about
two feet In length, in all its appointments
complete, having fine model, masts,
spars, cordage, carved 6gurehead, brass
guns &C. &c. 1t is the workmanship of
a prisoner named John Wilson and does
great credit to the mechanical genius of
the man. He has expended the spare
hours of eight or nine weeks on the lit
tie craft. None but mind well versed
in the way ships are built could have pro-
duced so nice specimen. Mr.. Wilson
knows how vessels are built and hand
led. He is an old salt evidently.

CLEANLINESS A VIRTUE.-There is

a more intimate connection between soap
and water and pure morals than was ever
dreamed of in the philosophy of most
people; and we intend to maintain that
a good scrubbing is more beneficial toavi-
ciously disposed person than bad ser
mon. We believe that the climate eyiP'
will work out of man who keeps the
pores of his skin well open, and that
one with an abundance Of clean linen
will very seldom feel inclined to commit
a dirty action. He who said that clean
illness was next to godliness,' uttered a
very wise axiom, OF which everyday ex-
perience and observation will but serve
to augment the proof; and if ever such
an improbability should transpire that
we were to become wealthy, and still re-
tain our present benevolent intentions,
we shall doubtless be iumortalized as the
founder of the first Institute for the
Reformation of the Dirty where ethic-
al instruction will be given in rudimen-
tai courses of fiesh-brushes and crash
towels, and first principles iuculcated
through clean shirts and shampooing.-
The washing out of sins through bap-
tism' is deeper truth, and has broad
er significance, than its merely emblem
attic import; and it is an easy matter,
after you have scrubbed man up, to
lead him in the path of moral rectitude.
Nearly all the ancient religions enforced
frequent additions, on the principle that
outward purity produces its correspond
ing influence on the inner man. Try it.

CoLoMA.-The following pleasant
picture is from the Cotonaa Times, and
it is strictly true. How proper is it for
the scene of the great gold discovery to
set the mining region at large such an
example.
The most pleasant feature about Co.
Iona is the beautiful shade trees, or
chards, vineyards, and gardens among
which the dwellings in its vicinity are
EMPOWERED. Viewed from the hills
around, they add beauty and pictur-
esqueness to our town that the most
magnificent and costly structures could
not give. 1t has the appearance Of
community of HOMES, in the strict sense
of the word-homes shaded by the
stately trees of the forest, gardens sug-
gestive OF the luscious fruits of the sea-
son, and clambering vines, which make
even the humblest dwelling thing of
beauty that will attract the wandering
passer's gaze and linger in his memory
when he is far away in some sterile spot.
Thus adjoining our dwellings and max
ing them pleasant abiding places, engen-
ders a love of home, without which no
people can long remain prosperous or
happy,

twenty-eighth anniversary of his paper,
draws a graphic picture of the newspa-
per as an institution" He says
!" The history of newspaper is much

In our modern life the newspapers truly

in it the spring blooms and the autumn

song the low wind comes fresh and sweet
over old meadows, and happy faces CLEAN

turns every day in the daily newspaper.

AN EMPTY observation-disclosures
tively considered, l say that there is not
in this world a sadder sight, one SO
touchingly suggestive of departed joys,
departed never to return, as pocket
book, fat, planed, exenterated, crushed
10y the elephantine foot of fate,-nor is
there one so ridiculous, inutile, imperti-
nent, possibly reproachful and disagree
ably didactic. Think of it, Don Bob,
for you in your day, as / in mine, have
seen it. IT'S so much leather stripped
from the back of the innocent beast, and
cured and colored and polished and
stamped to no purpose, -with prodig-
ious show of empty compartments, like
banquet halls deserted. 1t has a clasp
to mount guard over nothing,-a clasp
made of steel digged from the bowels
of the earth, and smelted and hammered
and FURNISHED, only to keep watch and
ward after the thief has made his visit
leisurely. IT'S an egregious chaos. IT'S
an absurd vacuum. -Aaontic Montlly.

WILD TOBACCO. In less than half
mile of town may be seen thousands of
the above plapts, which, in the season,
attain the height Of from eighteen inch
es TO three and four feet. The stalks
seem to be very vigorous, and the leaves
although by no means as large as those
of the cultivated article, are nevertheless
of very respectable dimensions and af-
ford passable article for smoking pur-
poses We are told that the Indians
have been in the habit of gathering it
for years past and using it in this way;
? fact which would go to prove that a
substance which is indigenous to the
soil might be raised to almost perfection
were the same attention given to it that
is given to the commonest herb or veg
etable of the garden.-Gehama Gazette.

CALIFORNIA BALLs.-We heard a
story related of a young man, a few days
since, who attended ball mot a hundred
miles from this place, and whose uniform
bad luck in getting dancing partners In
duced him to quit the "gay and festive
scene" and retire to bed in disgust
Previous, however, to carrying out his
desperate design, he thought he would
make one more trial. He accordingly
addressed young lady friend and found,
as ne had anticipated, thatshe was zen
gagged for several dances ahead. but
added that she "would dance with him
sometime in the course of the evening y
Very well madam" rejoined our
victim, "my room is number 81 and
when you get through, just come and
wake me up"
Rumor hath it that, like sensible
girl, she has ceased engaging herself
ahead since that time Tehama Gazette.

NAYBoEN.-The recent visitors to
Japan mention curious custom preva-
lent there, called " Nayboen " OF "make
believe" When it is inconvenient or
unpleasant to see things as they really
are, the japanese stoutly ignore the
evidence of their senses, and pretend to
see just what they choose to see, or what
ought to be. Nayboen is an act of
special politeness. When guest is
buorisll ol iH-nas urod, the Japanese 5cn-
tleman interprets his awkwardness or
malevolence by the rule of contraries,
and persists in speaking and acting as if
just the right and pleasant thing had
been done When a man dies in debt,
he is supposed to be alive and his fam
lily draw his income until the creditors
are satisfied. If a man commits suicide
on being insulted, as the custom is in
Japan, he is not. considered dead until
considerable time has elapsed, and then
it is charitably given out that he died
of disease. And all these pleasant fc-
tions are faithfully kept up, with most
admirable feigning, although all the
parties know that they are mere fctions.
Indeed, it does not seem to be the object
to deceive, but only to palliate what
cannot be remedied by assuming the
contrary to he true.-Sprsnafeld Re

THE ATLANTIC MONTHLY.-No man
of intelligence and cultivated taste
should deprive himself Of the pleasure
which is afforded by a regular perusal
of this most brilliant Of the American
Magazines. Several of our most genial
and gifted writer's contribute to it, and
its contents have become part of the
literary chat and criticism of the day.
In its pages has already been compile
ted work of great originality, whose
eccentric wit and humor, the silver lin
ing to thoughts of much depth and path
os, or themselves the ftful revealings of
these, h.ve attracted universal admir-
alton.
"The Professor has taken the " Au-
tocrat's" place at the breakfast table,
and is proving himself worthy success
sor.
Read what he says about the clergy !:
Teachers and students get a certain
look, certain conventional tones of voice,
clerical gait, professional neckcioth,
and habits of mind as professional as their
externals. They are scholarly men and
read Bacon, and know well enough what
the "idols of the tribe" are. OF course
they have their false gods, as all men that
follow one exclusive calling are prone to
do.-The clergy have played the part of
fy-wheel in our modern civilization.
They have never suffered it to stop. They
have often carried on its movement, when
other moving powers failed, by the mo-
mentum stored in their vast body.
Sometimes, too, they have kept it back
by their us inertia, when its wheels
were like to grind the bones of some
old canonized error into fertilizers for the
soil that yields the bread of life. But
the handspring of the worlds religious
movement is not in them, nor in any Oh e
body of men, let me tell you 1t is the
people that makes the clergy, and not
the clergy that makes the people. OF
course, the profession reacts upon its
source with variable enefgy.-But there
never was guild of dealers or COM
pany of craftsmen that did not need
sharp looking after
