III MAN DEtNHEk y Ot kTSIiIP.-I MS eminent
divine, who is as well known as he is univcr-
sally respected, many years since was led to
the conclusion that 81 it is not well for man to
be alone After considerable pondering, he
resolved to offer himself in marriage to GER
tain member of his flock. No sooner was the
plan formed than it was put into practice, and
getting ont his cane, he speedily reached the
dwelling of his mistress.
1t chanced to be on Monday morning, day
which many New England readers need not
be told Is better known as washing day.
Unconscious of the honor that was intended
her, the lady was standing behind the tub in
the back kitchen, with her arms immersed in
the sudS, bu>ily engaged in an occupation
which, To say the least Of it, is more useful
than rumTHtic. There WAS tUud knock AT
the door.
"'Janc, 90 to the door, and fit is anybody
to see me, tell them am engaged, and cannot
see thcm.'
The message was faithfully rchcarscd.
"Tcll your mistress that it is very impor-
tant that should see her."
"Tell him to call this afternoon" said the
lady, land. will see him."
But it was unavailing.
&" must sec her now" said the minister,
"tcll me where she is"
So saying, he followed the servant into the
kitchen, to the great surprise Of her mistress.
Mi>S--, | have come to the conclu-
sion to marry; will you have mc?" was the
minister's opening speech.
Have you! replied the caStoniShCded lady
" This is n singular time to offer Yourself.
Such an important step should he made a
matter of prayer and dcliberation."
| D
as he knelt down beside the tub, and prayed
that union might be formed which would
enhance the happiness of both parties. His
prayer was. answered, and from this union.
thus singnarly formed, has sprung family

How TO WATER PLANTs.-As rule. water
should never be given, until the further with
holding of it would be detrimental to the
plants. lIabitual watering does, in the ma.
lority of cases, more harm than good. Plants
left to battle with drought, send their roots
down deep in search of moisture, and when
rain does come, they benefit more by it than
those that have,regular watcrings all along.
If the ground is)dug deeply, and kept in good
heart, plants that have once got established,
will bear drouth for any length of time, but
things lately planted, and that have not had
time to "gct hold, must be kept su pplied or
their beauty may vanish for half the season.
Succulent vegetables, too, which ought to be
kept growing quick, must have abundance
and of course, plants in pots must, of ncccssi-
ty, have sufficient. There are two important
points to be attended to in giving water ono
is to expose the water to the sun before using
it, to render it soft and warm, and tho other
is to give thorough soaking at once, sufficient
to keep the ground moist week. Supposing
the supply to be limited, but regular, the best
way of cconomzing both water and time is 10
take the garden, piece by piece, watering each
piece thoroughly every evening, and then be-
gin again as at first.

PERFuMEs.-The French prepare more per
fumes than any other people. In the South
Of France, and in Piedmont, vast crops Of
flowers are grown. Cannes and Nice furnish
yearly about $4,000 lbs. of violet blossoms.
Both cities arc famous, also, for their orange
blossoms, the latter producing 100, 900 lbs, .,
and the former double that quantity, and Of q
finer odor. Cannes abOunds, too, in the Acacia
Farnesiana, and affords yearly COCO lbs. Of its
finely scented blooms. Careful treatment Is
required to extract the ETHEREAL oila These
arc so largely mingled with other vegetable
juices, that GOO lbs. Of rose leaves yisid only

Ii women have one weakness more marked
than men, it is toward veneraton. They are
born worshipers-makers of silver shrines for
some divinity or other, which, Of course, they
always think fell straight down from heaven.
The first step towards their falling in love with
nm ordinary mortal is generally to dress him
out with all manner of real or fancied superb
ority and, having made him up, they worship
him. Now, truly great man, man really
grand and noble in art and intellect, has this
advantage with women, that he is an idol ready
made to hand; and so that very painstaking
and ingenious sex have less labor in getting
him up, and can be ready to worship him on
shorter notice. In particular is this the case
where n sacred profusion and moral suprem-
acy are added to the intellectual. Just think
of the career Of celebrated preachers and di-
vines in all ages. Have they not stood like
the image that NebuchadncZzar the King
set up, and all womep kind, coauettcs and
iIirts not excepted, been ready to fall down
and worship, even before the sound of cornet
flute, harp, Sackbut, and so forthP Is not the

The fact is, women are burdened with fealty,

MoUNTAIN CORRESPONDENCE.
PEAvrNE. April 26th


EpIroR DEMocRAr II hasten to inform
your readers that the route from Marysville
to Washoe. via American and Honey Lake
Valley. is now open. Nineteen head Of beef
cattle passed over the snow this morning aud
thirty-five head more are expected to follow
tomorrow.
There s no doubt that with the fact that
we have the levelest route, and that at Indi-
an Valley we can show silver veins richer
than the average Of Carson. and that both
American and Honey Lake Valleys contain
paying deposits, we can "toot our horn" and
with other blowers swear that we have the
best Washoe road leading from California,
and that it is nearer to large silver deposits
Marysville taken as a starting point, is self
evident We have heretofore kept still We
have said nsthing about our facilities. while
others have blowed loud and long. Our
rad has been shut up 10y impossible snow
and we kept still We have not published
statements that our road was open for ami
mails, when to-day was the first attempt at a
passage since it closed up. Now we are on
hand-we are able to honorably compete
with any Of the others We have better
road than any other route, feed is cheaper,
excepting for say, 90 miles of the road) we
can strike silver 100 miles sooner, and it is
from 25 to 40 miles farther to Washoe from
Marysvile than some other routes and nearer
than others that claim to be the shortest.
