THE SIERRA AvALANCuEs.-The Citizen gives
the ensuing particulars of the late destructive
avalanche at the Buttes:
The night hands were at work in the ouartz
mill; Robert Wright, the cook, and E. H. Murphy
were still up in the cook house; VIM. c. REYNOLDS
was sitting in his house, in front of large stove
the doors OF which were open, reading; all the
others, some sixteen or eighteen, were asleep in
their beds; u. W. Reynolds, whose wife was alb
sent in Downievile, occupied room on the first
floor. as did also James Phillips, who slept in the
company's Office; in the second story was Henry
Eberhardt-H. +. Wood, one of the company.
being luckily away from home At fifteen min
utes before ten o'clock at night an avalanche,
which had started in the ravine, mile and a
half above, rushed down through the dwelling
of Reynolds, as whrlwind, scattering il into
thousands OF fragments-many of which were
borne with the resistless mass more than mile
below No unusual sound gave to those who
were awake the least token of its approach, or
premonition of danger from such a source; 1t
came with the stiffness Of death and the velocity
OF thunderbolt. How Phillips and the brothers
Reynolds were saved, they themselves can have
ne conception, for it was the work of fraction
OF second. VIM. Reynolds, who was glancing
that moment at the fire, insists that he was car
ried straight through the stove; he found himself
lying by the side of an iron safe which bad been
kept in the office, at the bottom of the mill pit
thirty five feet deep and sixty feet distant some
what bruised but able to walk; his brother George
though found at distance lying in his bed, and
still rolled up in his blankets with his watch un-
der his pillow, was more seriously injured, but
he is now considered out of danger. Mr.. Phillips
who is one Of the quartz company, was also
thrown, with his bed, in the same direction, sixty
feet, to the top of the mill pit, whence he leaped
through the window into the mill he was but
slightly injured. A corner only of the cook house
was struck, and though ii was completely crushed
in by the weight of the snow that fell upon il,
the inmates were enabled to make their escape
through an aperture near the top. OF Eberhardt,
nothing whatever has been discovered.

THE LIGHT HOUSES OF MoHAMEDANIsM-Trav
clers who have visited and resided in CONSTANT
nople, say that the Mohamedans hold bells in
great adherence, and summon the people TO
prayer with the voice only. For this purpose
towers are erected at the angles of the mosques,
called "Minera," an Arabic word, signifying light
houses, to which the Muezzins ascend TO remind
the faithful of their duty. The following is their
appeal to the people, Oh these occasions: "God
the Great the Almighty! the only true God and
Mohamet by his divine grace, the Prophet Come
10 prayerW This sentence is repeated five times
in each day. at regular intervals-it is uttered at
the same moment from all the Mnera of the
mosques, by 1000 different voices-and the effect
which it produces on stranger is Of most stri
king and solemn character. Calling TO prayer
also serves to mark the lapse of time, as there are
no public clocks in Constantnople.

SLAIN IN THE BATTLE OF INDUsTRY-The slain
in the battle of industry, though veterans may
fall rapidly, do not shock us like the corpses Of
murdered men; honorable death, however violent,
consecrates the memory of the dead and sofens
and shortens bereavement. We should not regret
that there has been no annual report of deaths
among the workers; let us rather deplore them
in the indefinite aggregate and say for the unfor-
tunate-" These are our noble dead" Let them
lie as humby in the soil as they had lived upon
II, and when we pass their graves speak this
highest praise: "1hey were slain in the battle Of
industry. p Sierra Citizen

PATRICK IN METHODIST MEETING-Deacon In
gals fell in with Irishman, fresh from the sod
on bis way TO meeting. Pat enquired the way to
church, and the good brother invited the stranger
to go with him.
After he was seated he turned to brother In
gals and, in a whisper which could be heard all
around inquired:
Sure, an isn't this n hritick church ?"
Ilush,' said ingalls,; if you speak q loud
word, they will put you out"
"And faith, not word will spake, at all,''
replied Pat.
The meeting was opened with prayer by the
pastor. Pat was eyeing him closely, when an old
gentleman who was standing in the pew directly
in front of Pat, shouted glory ~
Hist. ye clear Demon" rejoined Pat, with his
loud whisper, which was plainly heard by the
minister; &" be dacent, and don't make black
guard Of yourself"
The parson grew more and more fervent in his
devotiOns. Presently the deacon uttered an
audible grOan. "Hist-s-t ye blackguard, have
ye no dacency at all, at all ~ said Pat, at the
same moment giving the deacon punch in the
ribs, which caused him nearly to lose his equilib-
rum. The minister stopped, and extending his
hand in supplicating manner, said:
Brethren, we cannot be disturbed in this way.
VIII some one put that man out ?"
"Iis, your riverence," shouted Pat, I" will !"
and suiting the action to the word, he colared
the deacon, and to the utter horror and astonish-
ment of the pastor, brother Ingalls, and the whole
congregation, he dragged him through the aisle,
and with tremendous kick, he landed him in the
vestibule of the church,

Cornwall MINEs.-Of all the Cornish mines
none is more widely celebrated than the great
Botalach mine, few miles from the Lands End
Its mouth is situated on the very verge of an ex-
posed cliff, and its galleries and shafts are drawn
far out beneath the Atlantic's waves, stretching
nearly five hundred feet beyond the shore mark
at low water The miners employed in these
awful depths have the gurgling of the waves above
them for ever in their ears, and during storm
the mine resounds with the thunder of the stones
which are hurled with the surf against the rocky
bench

from the researches of Pouilet that the stars
