The DooM OF THE WoRI.p--The North British
Rerieo, discoursiug on the doom Of the world,
has the following remarks:
"What this change is TO be, we dare not even
conjecture, but we see in the heavens them
selves come traces Of destructive elements and
some Indications Of their power the fragments
Of broken planets--the descent of meteoric
stones upon our globe-the whirling comets
welding their loose material at the solar SUR
face-the volcanic eruptious in our own sate-
lite--thc appearance of new stars and dsap-
pearance of others, are all foreshadows of that
impending convulsion 10 which the system Of
the world is doomed Thus placed on planet
which is to be burned up, and under heavens
which are to pass away thus residing. as It
were, on the cemeteries, aud dwelling upon tbs
mausoleums Of former worlds, let US learn the
lesson of humility and wisdom, II we have not
already been taught In the school Of reyels,

A SHREwD FINANCIAL TRANsAcrIoN.--Som
months ago, says the Sacramento Bee, 1t will
be remembered, considerable outcry was made
because j l.. Polhemus stamped with his store
mark all pieces Of foreign coin that came into
his hands. Since then the coin has greatly de-
preciated, and we are Informed that cunning
fnancer in town is, and has been, engaged for
some time in collecting all francs and forty
cent pieces containing the Polhemus stamp, in.
tending to make him redeem them at the rate
they were current at when he put bis endorse
ment upon them; and having taken legal advice
upon the question, he is confident Of calling our
worthy druggist TO refund. II is said that at
least one hundred dollars will be made by the
speculation, which is certaiuly one Of the
shrewdest we ever heard of.

A CURIosITY.-The editor OF the Placerville
Observer has been shown rare old memento Of
the past, which was found some time ago on
Breckenridge mountain, south Of Kern river.

clay. will hold about two quarts, aud is about
the shape of an ordinary soup bowl except that
1t is round on the bottom. The body Of the
bowl is about three-sixteenths of an inch iu

We have seen many stone vases and other Gu,
rous implements Of stone which have been Ia

country, but this is the first piece Of potter's
ware which we have as yet heard Of being
found in California.
Queries made IL when was II made

THE FRUIT CRoP IN Ell D0RADo.-From the
latcness of the season, we have good reason TO
hope that the recent chilly weather is the wind
Ing up storm, and it is gratifying beyond meas
ure TO know that the long Winter of 1859 has
passed by without destroying the fruit crop.
From present Indications we shall have an uR-
precedented abundance Of every variety OF
fruit. The late frosts killed good many Of
the peaches, but there is still enough left upon
the trees, and the crop will be all the better for
not being too full. This is the first season that
our Ei Dorado people have had a fair prospect
of having a full supply OF fruit Of their cwn
raising. In addition to the apple and peach
crop there will be bountiful vintage, and sevs
eral Of our vine raisers expect to make many
casks Of wine for expectation,

to enjoy the majestic epic OF Milton, read

Seek the recesses OF some shady wood far
from city striIe and din. to pore over the
roman ic and chivalric verse Of Spenser
and Chauccr.
Take Wordsworth with you to tie

and books Tor its decorative appointments.

Seat yourself on II stile in the country
