Arrival of the Overland Mail.

Sr. LOUIS, October 10.
The Overland Mail with dates to the Esd
ult. has arrived here.
The Agricultural Fair at Sacramento was
largely attended from all parts of the State.
Crowds Of politicians congregated there, and
the canvass for the successor to Senator
Broderick had already commenced. General
Denver and Governor Weller appear to be
the strongest candidates at present, but at
least half dozen others are striving for the
place.
Broderick's estate is valued at Sl30, 900,
which is encumbered to the amount of
$S5, 900. He left no will, and, it was sup
posed, no relatives, but two persons in San
Francisco named Edmund Welsh and Lucy
Brown claim the estate, being, as they assert,
cousins in the second degree.
The Sacramento (Democratic) Standard
states, on the authority of prominent Anti
Lecomptonite and warm supporter of BrOd-
erick, that he (Broderick) in his room at San
Francisco, just before receiving the challenge
from Terry, said that he expected to receive
challenges from Terry, Gwin and Denver,
and that he expected to kill all three of them
before leaving for Washington.
A Pacific Railroad Convention, composed of
delegates from all the Pacific States and Terri
tories, was in session at San Francisco, and
was very largely attended. John Bidwell, of
California, was chosen President, and Edward
Landen, Of Washington Territory, and Alex
ander P. Ankey, Of Oregon, Vice Presidents.
vast amount Of statistics and argument In
favor of various routes, and in favor of tho
road itself, comprises the substance Of the pro-
csedings thus far, but it was believed that
some action to build Califonia's portion of the
road will be recommended before the aonven-
ton adjourns.
The business demands from the country had
improved somewhat, but importers were doing
very little. A cargo of eight thousand bags
of Rio Coffee, by WB. Scranton, had been
sold at anction, averaging $l4 26H per bag.
Provisions nominal. Sugar heavy.

Water Cruel without salt lsno more insipid,
weak and nsuseating than much of the cheap
trash which has been served in the current re-
past Of mammoth newspaper literature. The
spice and porter house steak are needed. We
hope in our thumb-paper folio to give palata-
bls food, though in broken doses. Brief,
pointed paragraphs are needed. Western
people can't be stuffed with poison or pre-
tenoe. We must come back to our "bib and
tucker days. Our preparations must be
made for bolder age than tho past. We
must supply the demand for substantial food.

The Diamond wedding-cuba and the
United States Annexed.

The long talked-of and hugely magnifed
wedding of Don Estaban Santa Cruz do 0veido
and Miss Frances Amelia Bartlett, took place
on Thursday last. or It the Times says:
GAS the utmost pains had been taken by the
parties intrusted with the arrangements to
make the affair one of public noteriety, there
was q vast thr0ng present at st. Patrlck's
Cathedral, where the choicest seats had been
reserved for the creme de Ia creme Of Gothamite
society; middle region set apart for the less
pretentious middle class; and the remainder Of
the sacred precincts consecrated TO the mob.
At noon Archbishop Hughes appeared, fol-
lowed Immediately by the bridal group, and
the marriage was solemnixed according to tho
Roman Catholic ritual. Curiosity was abund.
sntly gratifsd in the inspection Of the wealthy
bridegroom aud Of his young and handsome
bride, whose expensive parars had 30 long
been the theme Of exaggerated gossip.
"After being warned by the Archblshops
against eny imitation Of King Henry VIII
or Napoleon I, and encouraged with
tho reasonable hope Of an average conjugal
the bridegroom was dismissed
the bride turning to the audience, gladdened
a thousand eyes with the spectacle Of her un-
rufaed beauty as she embraced, one after
another, her parents and her bridesmaids,
shook hands with her groomsmen, and retir-
ing through the vestry, took carriage for her
paternal home in Fourteenth-street. The
crowd, blue, white, black and gray, dispersed
itself as best it could. Mott-street saw the
vision of love and luxury fade from its bat
tered and seedy precincts as suddenly as it
had arisen the distinguished wonder seekers
departed, and the interest Of the day, dying
gently out through three hours Of Brown,
policemen, bride. cake, homage, oysters, jam,
admiration and the worship OF
lrousseaur at the house Of Mr.. Bartlett in
Fourteenth street, passed into history for
ever and these faithful chronicles"

@T The statement in regard to the identity
Of tho British Admiral, now serving in the
East Indies, with the Captain of the Endy-
n,ion, when engaged with the President in
1915, is erroneous. The latter was Henry
Hope, who was born in 1887, appointed cap
tain in the Royal Navy the oath Of May,
1908, and Admiral of tho Blue, his present
rank, in 1858; while the Admiral who COM
msnded at Peiho, in China, on the 25th Of
June, was born in 1903, appointed Captain in
the Navy in 1888, and Rear Admiral Of the
Blue on the 10th Of November, 1857. The two
Adnirals arc cousins.

A special dispatch to the Rspu6lioa. says
that Captain Simpson and party reached
Leavenworth, yesterday morning, from Cali
fornia, via Camp Floyd. The captain reports
his return route from California to Camp

Humboldt River route, Q much superior
grade, and also more wood, water and grass.
Captain, Simpson also, by direction Of GEN
eral johnson, explored new pass through
the Units Mountains, which will shorten Gun

dred miles, and in case q pass 10 found throu Oh
tho Rocky Mountains, directly east Of Unita
River, route will have been obtained shorter
than any now across tho plains.

Parties who are familiar with church affairs
say that the report In relation to the action Of
the House Of Bishops, on tho restoration Of

founded. On tho other hand, the rumor Is
again repeated, and tho vote 10 now said to
have been twenty. eight against and six for
restoration. Nothing can be ssoertained Of q

THE MILKY WAY-This well known phenom- enon is great luminous band which stretches every evening all across the sky. At one part it sends off kind of branch which again unites with the main body, after remaining distant for about l5O0 This remarkable belt has, from the earliest ages of which we have any record, maintained the same place among the stars and when examined through a powerful tele- scope it is found to be composed of myriads of gttcring stars, scattered in groups of millions, like glistening dust on the black ground of the general heavens Sir William Herschel has divided 1t into a number of nebuous systems, or separate clusters of stars, and has described their appearances and shapes; but, as yet it is to us but the shadowy outline of another branch of astronomical research which will require more powerful instruments and more human genius than is now at command for its eXplor- alton. The same authority above referred to thinks that the phenomena of the milky way agree with the supposition that the stars of our Armament, instead of being scattered in all di- rections mdilerently through space, form a stratum, of which the thickness is small in com parison with its length and breadth and in which the earth occupies place somewhere about the middle of its thickness.

Spit in Your Hand and Try Again.

Such has been the encouraging advice given to many llaan who has failed in some attempt Ets uttcranec calls up images of the log cabin in the clearing, with the sturdy pioneer chop ping away al solae giant of the forest and stop ping to spit in his hand previous to taking a few more vigorous strokes. The phrase recalls a story we once heard of one of the early set tiers of Cleveland So accustomed had he be- come to the axe, and to the little pecuarities connected with its constant use that he com menced every task as if about to fell mighty tree. Whether it were to roll log or write letter, Ca task not often undcrtaken,) he always spat in his hand before grasping the lever or clutehing the old worn goo,e quill Time passed, and our hero fell in love and made up" 10 a buXom lass Whether his first oscuation was preiaced by the usual apprehension, we cannot say, bat in course of tipse the eyenttul question was popped answered in the atiiI- mative and the day fixed A friend offered to wager dollar with the harpy brideeroom on the eyentiul morning, that he would spit in his hand previous 10 taking that of the bride The wager was indignantly taken. The happy pair drew up before fine squire. Tho ceremony proceeded The bridegroom kept grim watch over himself and thou Ght of the dollar at stake At last the important moment arrived, and the squire ordered the bride room 10 take the hand of the bride, so that the twain might be made indissolubly one flesh In the hurry and the excitement of the awful moment the lr'dc- groom forgot everything but the terrible blow he was about to give to all his baclelor habits, and as preparatory to the stroke, he of course spit in his handi As quick as liohning, the consequences flashed upon his mind, and, turn ing to his betting supporter, he grayely whs- perel; I'll owe you that dollar

THE WIND A MUSICIAN. The wind is mu- sician at birth We extend a silken thread in the erevice of window, and the wind fnds it and sings over it, and goes up and down the scale upon it, and poor Paganini must go some where else for his honor, for 10! tie wind is performing with a single string aHI
 It tries almost everything upon earth to see If there is music in it; it persuades tone out of the great bell in the tower, wben the se,ton Is at home and asleep; it makes mourntul harp of the giant pines and it does not disdain to try what sort of whistle con be anade Of the humblest chimney in the world. How it will play upon a great tree, till every leaf th2lls with the note in it, and the wind up the river that rus at its base, for a sort of naullnuring accompaniment uu
 And what melody it sings when it gives concert with the full choir of the wave of the sea, and performs an antheM between the two worlds, thgt goes up, perhaps, to the stars that love music Iaost and sang it the first
 Then how tondly it haunts cid houses; moan- ing under the caves, sighing in the halls, open ing old doors without fingers and singing measure of some sad old song, around the fire less and deserted hearth

Birth Spot Memories.
BY GEO. b. PRENTICE.

Ah how the silent memories of years Are stirring in my spirit l have been A lone and joyless wanderor. have roamed Abroad through other climes, where tropic flowers Were offering up their incense, and the stars Swimming like living creatures; l have strayed Where the softcst skies of Italy were hung In beautiful transparency above, And glory floating like lovely dream Ger the rich landscape; yet dear fancy still, Mid all the ruder glow of brighter realms, Oft turned to picture the remembered home, That blest it's earliest day dreams. Must go Forth in the world again! I've proved it's joys, Till joy was turned to bitterness-Ive felt Its sorrows till thought my heart would burst With the fierce rush of tears! The sorrowing babe Clings to it's mother breast. The bleeding dove Flies to her native vale, and nestles there To die amid the quiet grove, where first She tried her tender piniOn. could love Thus to repose amid these peaceful scenes To memory dear. Oh, it were passing sweet To rest forever on this lovely spot,
 Where passed my days of innOcence-to dream }f the pure stream of infant happiness Sunk in life's wild and burning sands-to dwell On visions faded, till my broken heart Should cease to throb--to purify my soul With high and holy musings-and to lift Its aspirations to the central home
 Of Love and peace and holiness in heaven

Gneezing.

What a moment, what doubtl All my nose is inside out All my thrilling, tickling caustic Pyramid rhinocerostic,
 Wants to snceze and cannot do it. How it yearns me, thrills me- stings me, How with rapturous torment fills me;
 Now says, 'sneeze, you fool-get thro' it, Shec-shee-oh, 'tis most del-ish- Ishi-ish most de-ishi-- (Hang it, shall sneeze till Spring,) Snuff is delicious thing.
