DRY SEAsoN.-The simmer in California
is emphaticallya a "dry season." In the fore
part of the season, before the moisture of
winter has been evaporated from the beauti
fully rounded hills that surround our city,
they are clothed in magnificent mantle of
flowers, grasses and leafy shrubs, while the
few heaven-piercing pines and widespread
ing oaks that vandalism has permitted to re-
main as sad memento of the giant forests
which once graced their crests, are cones of
natural elegance and vernal beauty, which
not only please the eye but snake the heart
glad" But when summers sun has darted
his fiery rays into every nook and crevice,
drying up the last drop of generous moisture,
how changed is the scene The flowers and
grasses speedily loose their bloom and
freshness the pines and oaks are no longer
cones of beauty, but droop as faded wreaths
upon the grave of the loved and lost; and
the whole landscape-but now so fresh and
blooming-puts on the parched and faded
look of WEAKNESS and suffering. Such is
the scenery that now surrounds US; the hills
are parched, brown and dusty, and so they
will remain until the gentle rains again bless
rs with their tribute to human comfort

INQUIsITIvENEss REBUKED.-Soon after the
revolutionary war, Capt. P, brave Yankee
officer, was at st. Petersburg, in Russia, and
While there accepted an invitation to dine !;
there was a large number at table and
among the rest an English lady, who wish

lady, on understanding that an American
was one of the guests, expressed to one OF
her friends determination to quiz him.
She fastened on him like tigress making
many inquiries respecting our habits, GUS
toms, dress, manners and modes of life, ed
ucation, amusements, etc. etc. To all her
inquiries, Capt. 2. gave answers that salts
fed all the company except the lady she
was determined not to be satisfied, and the
following short dialogue took place:
"Have the rich people in your t.nntry
any carriages ?' asked the lady, " for I sup
pose there are some that call themselves
rich ?n
any residence is in small town." re-
piled the Captain, "upon an island where
there are but few carriages kept-but in the
larger towns and cities on the main land
there are number kept in style suited to
our republican manners"

SAID the lady ~ should not think the Amer

Madame, replied the Captain, twe can have

"I think the Americans ought to drive

English driving the Americansp
We did Madame" retorted the captain,
"in the late war; but since peace we per-
NIT the English to drive usr'
The lady, half choked with anger, stood

whispering to her friend, " The Yankees are

Stars have set their watch at last,
Founts that through the deep woods flow,
Make sweet sounds, unheard till now.

Sleep sit, dove-like, on thy breast!
If within thy secret cell,
One dark form of memory dwell,
Be it mantled from thy sight
Good night!
Joy be thine
Kind looks o'er thy ssumber shine!

Meet thy homes long parted band,
Be their eyes all love and light

HOMEWARD BOUND,


The morning of the 23d Of May at last arr-

worked watched and waited. In the dawn of
that day was centered the hopes of years.
Gold, the ne plus ultra of Icons desires, he had
gathered, and now as the day dawned glorious
ly, as only a California day can dawn, his bo-
som rose and fell proudly, with the conscious
ness Of well merited success.
The day dawned without cloud, and at an
early hour the party, consisting Of twenty-one
miners, started on their homeward journey
Leon was the youngest in the party, but he was
as we'll acquainted with the world, its joys and
sorrows trials, temptations and sufferings as
many an older one. lie was the pet also, and
many man of that band of hardy adventurers,
band who had worked for months in daily
communication and contact with him, would
have land down their lives to have saved his.
They were all well mounted and heavily
armed, and had quito as much the appearance
of military escort, as band of returning
miners Many brawny hand was shaken
heartily for the last time, and many bosom
heaved sigh, and many tear was shed by
those less successful ones, as they bid adieu to

consigned to the keeping of these men. And
they themselves, although their thoughts were
oil of home, yet left with degree of regret the
many scenes and associations of the mountain
mines. At length the arrangements were all
completed, the adieus all spoken, and then, as
the yellow sun sent his burning rays over the
eastern mountains lighting up the great valley
before them, decking the verdant forests with
more than regal splendor, aud changing the
broad river to a sheet Of silver, that band of
happy hearts started for HOME.

tions that cluster around that ever blessed name.

Total Eclipse of the Moon.
BY A. W. B.


In praise of moon have lovers sighed and sung
Since first she came the brilliant stars ameng,
One published " fellow in a pompous strain
Calls her, " Great Queen of splendid nuptal train"
satellite styled queen Uncouth, absurd
Wretched abuse of Anglo-Saxon word;
To say the moon was made of cheeses green
Is more correct thau title of 1" Great Queen" u
Another says, " Pale Empress Of the night"
Stands gazing at her while musquitos bte,-
Sautes her by each grand and classic name,
Supposed to please the of pride or fame.
From guilt or fear said " Empress " may bn pale
Perhaps some comets whizzing on her trail
Or if in taking horns," she sneuks from sight,
On turning round, no wonder she looks white.
Ninnes describe the moon emblem pure
OF Virtue, Innocence and Friendship sure,
But well we know the dame presides o'er scenes,
Which sorely would disgrace all earthly queens:
Genius of crime is active in the night,
Like burglar keen, op murderer in flight,
Shuns as a thief all intercourse with day.
Keeps dark " when Phebus wields the golden sway.
Witches are bred and brought to view by moon,
Ghous, ghosts and gobns chant terrific tune,
Dancing in churchyarls by her lurid light,
Than G. Harper's Ferry" causing greater fright.
Strained nerve and muscle, ever since her birth,
To draw old Ocean from good mother Earth;
If with her age the hag increase in size,
Heaven only knows how high the tide will rise.
Of every " breach of promise, !" moons the cause,
As such, should answer to our wounded laws;
One grlcomplaning of inconstant beaux,
Swore none had left her till the moon arose.
Now who would give a fig for such friend,
No shade of tirmncss, ,-chGnges never end,
Frank full and fair at times then crimped and small
Next takes mif,'' and won't be seen at all.
And who but her would constantly reflect
On all they see, and yet demand respect
For no comfort under such a curse,
Except when thinking others fare still worse
Herschel has six ! way on the verge Of heaven,
Jupiter four, his father Saturn seven J.!
How on those orbs must LunG-tics abound,
When with one moon, we have them all around.
