PHOTOGRAPHS OF THE MooN.-An article has
appeared in very serious foreign cotempo +.
rary to the following effect 'Suppose that
successful attempt were made to obtain a
surface for the Photographic picture perfect
ly free from irregularities capable of distort-
ing the most imperceptible lines of photo
graph. Suppose also that upon this surface
photograph of the moon were taken with
every precauton; if this picture were exam
ined with very powerful microscope the
most minute details would become visible
and if the instrument possessed sufficiently
high magnifying power you would be able
to see living beings, if there are any in that
luminary.-This is one of the applications
of photography to astronomy, and it is said
that an Italian sardnt, after trying for six
years to obtain this result, has succeeded,
has recently been able to obtain pictures of
the moon, on which figures of naked animals
are depicted, one species ofwhich bore great
resemblance to human beings. 1t is certain
that important discoveries may be arrived at
by this means, the great difficulty being to
find a substance on which to take the picture,
the surface ofwhich shall be so perfectly even
as to receive the luminous image without in
the slightest degree disturbing its most mi
mute details"

POPULATION OF CHINA.-The recent English
and French explorations of China have set
tied the fact, long suspected, that the popu-
lation of that country has been greatly over
stated by the grandiloquent Chinese author
tiles. The cities of Hankow, Hauyang and
Woochong, which had been declared to con-
tain together~eight millions of inhabitants,
are found to be really less than one million,
and never could have had three millions at
any period The British were surprised at
the thinness of the population on the Yang
tse river, which is supposed to traverse the
most populous region of the empire, and the
amount of traffic carried on along the river is
quite inconsiderable. The population of the
empire has been stated at from 400 to 500
millions, but there is no evidence that it is
half that number. and the recent disclosures
would indicate that it may be even less than
half

WHAT HosT.-Including State, county
and township Offices, there are about 1000
officers to be elected by the people of this
State next fail. There are three political
parties in the State, each of which is deter
mined to run full tickets throughout. To
fill those tickets will require 5000 men.
There will be in each party at least an aver
age of four candidates for each office to be
filled, which gives $4,000 as the number of
candidates for office next fall The total
numberof votes polled at the election in
1858 was sO,797 What host of office
seekers we shall have! Over one fourth of
the voting population seeking for officel Is
it wonder that politics has become great

OoLoGIcAL.-Alex. S. Taylor of Monterey
gives the S. F. Herald the first correct de-
scription ever published of the egg of the
California Condor which has long been an
object Of curiosity and search with natural
lists and egg fanciers. A ranchero, in huut-
ing among the highest peaks of the Santa
Lucia range, during the last week of April.
disturbed two Condors from their nests, and
at great risk of breaking his neck brought
away young bird and an egg-the bird from
one tree and the egg from another The nest
containing the egg was simply a hollow in a
tall old oak
The entire egg weighed ten and half
ounces, and the contents eight and three
quarter ounces. The color of the epp shell
is what painters call s:dead, dull white:n the
surface OF the she'll is not glossy, but slight
ly roughened, as in sea-pelican's eggs. but
not so much. The figure is nearly perfect
elllpse, being model Of form and shape in
itself. 1t measured four and a-half inches
IN length by two and threc-eghth inches in
breadth (dameter), and was eight and three
quarter inches in circumference around the
middle. The eggshell, after the contents
were emptied, (which were as clear, fine,
bright and inodorous as those of hens egg
with bright yellow yolk, held as much as
nine fluid ounces of water, Before the egg
was opened it sunk, on being placed in water
probably from its being very recently i'm
pregnated. Some of the old hunters say the
egg IS excellent eating-this one certainly
had not the taintest musky odor, nor the
slightest foreign smell.
The collection of birds eggs in the United
States and Europe, by sarans, and the rich
and curious who are bird-bitten has become
as much rabia and rage as was that of
shells; and, rather curiously, it centres more
in collections from the California birds, lust
now, than those from any other country
Any one, with fully identified and arranged
series of California birds eggs, could get
handsome figure for the set in New York
Boston, Paris or London. Only think, there
are schools of philosophers who make
study of birds eggs; they call it Oology, and
threaten to make very big books out of it.

CHANCES ABROAD.

AN English newspaper has lately been
started at Constantinople.
THERE are now three Jews in the English
House of Commons.
SEVERAL copies of a religious tract were
recently picked up at the Capitol, entitled
"Are you honest? They were distributed
for the benefit of members just before the
adjournment of Congress.
FLAG Captain Shubrielk is described by a
/ Paragua letter writer rs a wonderful speci-
men of the sailor, the man of business, and
the gentleman. He is as green as live oak
as cheerful as a singing bird, and as cool as
Sir John Frankin's bones!
AN ably written circular has been issued
in Canada West, and distributed in large
numbers, urging some member Of Parlia-
ment (if the new tariff succeeds) to propose
in the House that it is ''expedient to dissolve
all governmental connection with Great
Britain, that the union between Upper and
Lower Canada be dissolved, and that imme-
diate steps be taken that Upper Canada may
become State of the United States"

VEGETABLE WONDERs.-About twenty wears
ago, somebody made the wonderful discovery
that every blade of field oats was branded
with capital letter B. The announcement
OF this marvel set every body to work in the
examination of oat leaves, and sure enough
every blade was found to contain a curious
figure or spot which, by a slight draw on the
imagination, really did bear some resem-
blance to the Roman character B. Of course,
superstition readily interpreted this singular
freak of nature to some direful calamity
which was just at hand Fortunately. how
ever the world was not burnt up as was
then predicted, and from the fact that the
mysterious initial has appeared upon the oat
leaves every year since, people have settled
into the belief that the phenomenon was a
mere freak Of nature, produced by some
organic principle inherent in the plant
This season another vegetable wonder has
manifested itself upon the peach trees. In
this locality nearly all the trees are COW
cred with double fruit. In other words, a
single blossom has produced the germs of
two, three, and in some instances AS many as
as four peaches. We have noticed some
trees the fruit of which nearly all presents this
strange popularity. We are totally at a loss
how to account for this novelty, and the on
ly reasonable conclusion at which we can
arrive is, that nature is endeavoring to make
up for the failure of the crop last year

GERMAN Proverbs. Women have long hair
and short wits. There is only one bad wife
in the world, and every one thinks he has

STANDARD GoLD.-Gold when refined from
all impurities and alloys of inferior metals.
is denominated pure, or gold of twenty-four
carats, this being the standard of purity
recognized by the mint-master and the deal
ers in gold. In reality, however, there is no
gold so very pure, but that it wants about a
quarter of carat of this standard. The
carat is divided into /, /, lie, 1-32. These
degrees serve to distinguish the greater or
less quantity of alloy therein contained; for
instance, gold of twenty two carats has two
parts of silver and one of copper, and twen-
ty-two of fine gold; that of twenty-three
carats has half part, or half twenty
