ANGER AT Personal REFLEcTIoNs.-A lady
resdingat Brighton, England, recently owned
a pair of beautiful Java sparrows, which
were the pets of the family, and objects Of
admiration to all who saw them. One Of
them suddenly died. Its disconsolate mate
refused to taste the food offered it, but sat
upon its perch, looking wistfully about, and
with sad and gentle notes seemed to be
calingit mate. The bird refused to sleep,
and after various devices to Danish its grief,
the lady placed small looking glass inside
the cage. This reflected its own image, and
wrought an entire change in the manner of
the bird. 1t commenced singing loudly,
which it continued to do, but receiving no
response from its mate, it was continually
quarreling with its shadow. In its anger it
occasionally flies at the glass, striking it with
its beak, and is only prevented from injuring
itself by removing the glass from the cage
until it RECEIVERS from its passionate out
break, when the glass is replaced

MAZzNI-While Kossuth has been pro-
Tossing his faith in the honesty of Napoleon's
declarations with reference to Italy Mazzini,
whose name for nearly thirty years has been
identified with his country's aspirations and
efforts for freedom, earnestly expresses his
lack of confidence in the Emperor and warns
Italians that France and Sardinia are alike
opposed to national unity of the Italian
States. He even gives the details of plan,
which he asserts is definitely agreed upon,
for the division of Italy into four States
one in the south to be ruled by Murat, an
other in the center to be under Napoleon's
cousin, and the other two to remain with Sar-
DINA and the Pope. He advises his country
men to use France and Sardinia for the ex-
pulsion of Austria, and then insist upon ma
tional unity and independence for themselves,
inSte d Of abandoning the result to the two
governments.

TIN The announcement made two weeks

TIN N-The announcement made two weeks
two per cent. of the metal, had been discov-
cred in the vicinity of Temascal, about sixty
miles from Los Angeles, did not excite the
degree of attention that would be due to it
were its truth fully established. The dis
covery of extensive veins, or alluvial deposits
of tin, would be worth more to the State
than dozen new leads of auriferous quartz
like the famous Allison lead. Tin is one of
the most useful metals ,and one of the scarcest.
1t has been known to man from the remotest
time of which we have authentic record, but
has never been very plentiful, being found in
few countries in workable quantities. The
most productive mines are those iu Cornwall,
which were worked at a very early period,
and are thought to have been visited by the
Phenicians. The greatest quantity of the
metal is produced by washing the debris in
the valleys, which contains the ore in roun-
ded pebbles. The Cornwall mines yielded in
lS49 nearly eleven thousand tons Of the
metal, which was more than double the yield
for 1910, and the ratio of increase is prob
ably greater now than then. The growing
demand for tin, produced by the mutiplica-
ton of household untensilS and its daily ap-
plication to new uses, gives it added value
and makes the. discovery of new mines a

exist anywhere in California in workable
quantity, the fact will prove. as we have in
timated, to be one of unusual Importance
With the most prolific gold fields, the richest
quicksilver mines, silver leads in abundance
and productive tin mine, we could manage
to get along without native iron, copper and
lead, although these may yet be found with
in our borders in paying quantities.

FINE VIEw.-From the summit of Mount
Diablo, only 1856 feet high, travellers say q
noble view can be had. The snowy peaks
of tie Sierra Nevada on one side and the
CLEANING ocean on the other, frame picture
OF surprising loveliness. There are the roun-
ded foothills, slopng to the broad valley of
the Sacramento and San Joaquin-which
i; level as table and glorious with the tnts
OF ripened grain, and flowers and grass and
belts of verdurous oaks. There clisten the
sISterhood of bays, spotted with islands, and
many town and hamlet meets the gaze.
There lies the metropolis of the Pacific, and
beyond it the Golden Gate admits the thous-
and sails of commerce--winged messengers
that bring tribute from every land.

Mrs. FARNHAM.-This lady, the widow of
an early traveller to California, and who her
self wrote book about this country after a
short residence here, has lately been deliv-
ering course of lectures to women at Coop
er's Institute, New York. They are described
as unsurpassable for truth, eloquence, and
earnestness. In one of her talks before the
Women's Hearthstone Club she had some
thing sensible to remark upon the vexed and
vexing subject of servants" She said that
she had never had trouble with servants,
either in new countries or old, because in all
circumstances and places she recognised
their humdnity and had endeavored to treat
them with the tenderness of a friend a
course which, if taken by all women, would
lessen their domestic. Affections considerably,
and would turn the tide of every day talk
from the sins to the merits of their :shelp"
Mrs. Farnham has been for some time
practising physician in New York, but in
tends returning to California, where she says
she can compand greater service from her
intellectual faculties. 1t is not often that
women, or men either, are governed in their
movements by such motives.

PATTING Us ON THE BAcK-The leading At
lantic papers now take occasional flattering
notice of California, apart from her immense
and regular gold shipments. They dilate
with wonder upon the variety and extent of
her resources, as if they were just becoming
enlightened to them, which is doubtless the
case, and predict for her a great future. They
have discovered among other things that this
is bound to be great wine producing coun-
try, and that it is already exporting such ar
ticles as quicksilver, wheat, barley, wool etc.
This change from the old oblivious silence
may partly account for the large emigration
reported to be on the way hither, and was
itself occasioned by the persistent efforts of
the press of this State to acquaint the world
with the attractions and advantages of our
Pacific home. Several of the asterniournals
quote Langley's Register, which fact proves
the wisdom of the Legislative appropriation
for the distribution of that valuable work

From time immemorial it has been the
custom of newly married couples, to forward
to the printer, with a notice of their nuptials,
compliment in the shape of wine and cake.
A lady of Forest Hill, as we learn from the
Courier, has recently applied this agreeable
custom to notices of births. On the occa-
sion of the advent of daughter she sent
the editor bottle of Heidsick and gener-
Gus slice of cake. Her example is worthy
of all imitation.

broke the knee cap of his right leg, and a

ling to think how much some of our little
"indulgences" cost us. In the matter of
smoking, for instance, it may be safely cal
culated that few men in this country spend
less than twenty Ave cents a day, on an av-
erage, for cigars, tobacco and pipes. In
twelve months this would reach the sum of
$50, and in ten years Sole. The latter
amount would go far towards securing the
old age of an economical man against want
or if expended on life insurance policies, or
invested in land, would provide for his fam
iiy in the event Of his sudden decease with
out other means. 1t is quite probable that
most Californians average more than twenty
five cents day for tobacco, particularly the
smokers Of the weed. Then too, the ma
jority of those who smoke "drink little
now and then," and the cost Of what they
imbibe, or purchase for others to imbibe in
the way Of "treats," must be fully equal, at
least, to their tobacco expenses thus doub-
ling the above amount to 81 500 in ten years.
Surely this is worth saving not for the
mean reason that we would thus have so
much more money, but that it may be ex-
pended more usefully, that we may have
more means at disposal for the aid offriends
or needy strangers, for the adornment of our
homes, for the purchase of rational enjoy
ments, or for the satisfaction of our higher
wants. Many an aspiring soul is quenched
for the lack of that very coin which goes to
supply our daily quantum of ''the weed."-
Many an ambitious resolve has been puffed
away in wreaths of lazily watched smoke
We have heard a silver piece-our own, per-
haps-ringing on the counter of the tobac-
const or of the liquor dealer, and thought
there tolled the kncll of hope. q prom
ise, reputation. 1t is these constant drop
pings that wear away our capacity for use
fulness. Just think-a fortnights tobacco
or liquor would buy us Plato, or Shakes
peare. or Compte; would put into our
hands the history of our country; would
make US the owners of compendious cy-
clopedia; and through either one of these
mediums furnish US with mental pabulum
for a lifetime.
But then, say you, such ideas, especially
when carried into practice, are considered
rather mean economy is an unlovely thing
in the eyes of those who cannot appreciate
the motives for it; we must be men amongst
men. True, these objections to a rational
course are very powerful, apart from the aid
they afford our own perverted appetites,and
inspire those false notions of liberalty
which drive many good people away from
the path of obedience to their best impulses.
Perhaps our hints may not be altogether
unheeded however; and at any rate it is
something to even think right for a few mo-
ments, if we lack the courage to do it.

AUSTRIAN OPPRESSION IN ITALY-Who can
wonder that the Italians hate Austria. and
especially the Italians of Lombardo-V -Venita? :?
They have not only been crushed whenever
they made an attempt to acquire constitu-
tional rights-they have not only been awed
into silence and made to bow to the yoke of
superstition, but they have suffered the
heaviest exactions upon their purses. In
that particular all men are alike; onerous
taxation is the last straw that breaks the
camel's back. The London Quarterly Review
ian subjects of Austria are more heavily
taxed than any other people on earth. The
annual aggregate Of taxation amounted be-
fore the war to the enormous rate of 43 per
cent. of the actual income of the inhabitants
Thirty million dollars were drawn annually
from Lombardy alone, which has popula-
ton of only about two and half millions.
The people were thus made ptiably poor,
especially when failure tf crops year after
year came to increase their troubles, and a
forced loan of seventy millions of florins
was exacted from the principal cities. Be-
sides robbing her Italian subjects, Austria
imposes upon their children who attend the
government schools, such liberal catechism
as this:
"How must subjects behave towards their
sovereign? Subjects must behave towards
their sovereign like faithful slaves towards
their master. Why must subjects behave
like slaves? Because their sovereign is their
master, and has power over their property as
we'll as their life. Are subjects bound to
obey bad sovereigns also? Yes: subjects
are bound to obey not only good, but also
bad soyereigns."

in a single case. The entire treatment and

ant think he is prosecuted.
