MISCELLANE UUS.

From the 81. Joseph Journal
Important from Pixies Peak.
We understand that Mr.. Worries cousin
to the Messrs Worries of this city, and
whose mother resides near Centryville, ar
rived in this city few days since, direct
from the Pixies Peak and Cherry Creek
gold mines. Mr.. Worries is an old miner,
having emigrated to California in the Spring
of $50, and followed mining in that aurifer-
GUS region for a period of nearly ten years,
until November last, when he went to the
Pixies Peak mines in company with few
other old gold seekers from Stockton, Cal.
On arriving in the vicinity of Pixies Peak,
they stuck their stakes and went immedi-
ately to work, calling their mining district
Stockton, after Stockton, California. Mr..
Worries states that he prospected all through
New Stockton mines, and found gold every
where in abundance He dug down dis
lance Of eighteen feet until he came to
solid bed of rock, finding shot gold the en-
tire distance Mr.. v states that he took
out as high as $lS in one day, and the aver
age amout in those diggings was So, $40
and $12 to the man.
At the time of his leaving, the Mexicans
and Indians were the principal ones engag-
ed in mining, the Americans being gcner-
ally engaged in prospecting and laying off
town sites. He will leave this city on
Monday next for the Pixies Peak region,
taking out with him about fifty head Of
mich cows, and leaving this side of the
Missouri river forever.
We understand that Mr.. Worries owns a
large rancho in California, isa pioneer of
great experience, and a gentleman in whose
statements the utmost reliance can be plac-
ed

LIZA BEANs.-Who that has tasted this
delicious esculent can wish to spare any
needful pains in cultivating it successfully !?
Many persons plant it in the richest soil and
give it the full liberty of twelve or fifteen
feet pole; the consequences is, that the up
per half of the vine is practically useless.
The strength of the plant is wasted in max.
ing branches high up in the air, which can
not mature pods before frost sets in. Lii
mas should be pinched in as soon as they
reach six feet in height They then throw
outlaterals on which pods will form and

WE FILING DOWN uUn HEAL


By RUTH N. CROMWELL.
We ding down our hearts, to hearts that are filed
To the brim with the Joy Of possessing;
We throw dewn our kisses to lips that have thrilled
Till cioycd with the sweets Of carsssing.
We lavish our treasures of beauty and mirth,
On souls that ere stated with pleasure;
And hoard up the smiles that would gladden. the earth
To deal thom by stint and by measure. ~.
We keep the sweet song and the rarsst bon mot
For the cup that already Is flowing;
Aud swim 18th the tide, till not one Of US know
What spirit within US is growing.
No take up our garments, while stepping aside
FROM the children OF sin and Of sorrow
Yoreetting sc gather dust in our pride
Which shall bear US through Hadcs tomorrow.
We drink of the cup, whate'er it may be.
That accords with taste and our station
And dream that We strong as We wisely agree
In resisting our neighbours temptation.
70 may tell of the wisdom that's hid in the root
or the truths which the soul may not grapple
IT'S clear that sweet Eve, in eating the fruit,
Did swallow the seeds with the annie.

A gay coquctte at her mirror stood
Il vas but q brocklet that flowed through wood =
"Te-oays she murmured, "sha see me dressed
In the robes that suit my beauty best
And the countls>s lovers who round me bow
shall eay, 'sShe looks her lorel est now"
Then she donned an airy attire Of green
Like the gossamer dress OF q fairy queen
And . few pse blossoms their fragrance rare
Besathed from the waves Of her golden hair,
And song from her lip trilled clear, In time
With the robins throat, and the waters chime.
In sDortive mood DER her form she threw
A velvet robe Of Q richer hue;
VI brightest gems her eoronal shone,
They cleaned from her bosom, and lowing zone,
Aud kndling eye and glowing check
conscious sense Of her triunphs speak.
"And now for my regal pomp," cried she,
's0f al bright hues shall my vssture be
hut the sombrs brown shah in contrast lie
With the gorgeous yellow and scarlet dye;
They shall lend TO my beauty sunset glow
Aud sunset splcndor around me throw
Ths sunset faded, the maid grew pale,
Her form draped in a snowy veil,
Like vestal robe save she diamond gem
Flashing from girdis and dialem,
And blended worship and love was given
No less to a child Of earth than heaven.
Then smiled fair Nature, the gay coluctte,
while her eye with happy tear was wet
ssTrue hearts have oil these lovers OF mine
They ne'cr grow cold who kneei at my shrine,
For they know not in which of my gloriss drest
They may love me least or love mc best.
