MEDICAL INFIRMARY AND COLLEGE FOR Wo-
MEN.-Dr. Elizabeth Blackwell, highly sci
entific woman, who has been lecturing in
Great Britain and America on "Medicne as
a profession tor women" is endeavoring now
to establish in New York city woman's
hospital and college, which shall be the first
institution in the world where women can
obtain q thorough medical training and ex-
perience in the care of the sick The nu-
cleus of this beneficent scheme is already
under way. at No. 4, Blocker street, where
1000 sick women aud children have been
prescribed for and nursed in the past year,
by Miss Blackwell, her sister and another
female doctor, and where also a regular
course of instruction for nurses is organized
Among the trustees of this infrmary are
Henry J. Raymond, Horace Greeley, Chas.
A. Dana, and Cyrus Field. Miss Blackwell
is said to be the intimate friend and chosen
counsellor of Florence Nightingale, though
her superior in scientific attainments, and
has made it 'her life purpose to prosecute
and consnmmate the great sanitary reform
which the confirmed illness of Miss Night
iugale has compelled her to relinquish." All
honor and success attend her.

Bayard Tayor's first journey was made
at the age of eighteen, from a small town
in Pennsylvania to New York and the Gait
skill mountains, mostly afoot, on cash
capital of fifteen dolars-the savings of one
year. He got back with nine cents in his
pocket and a colossal cold in his head
While sitting on the rocks at Cauterskill
Falls, he confesses to writing some lines of
diluted poetry on bit of drawing paper,
which fell out of his pocket afterwards as
he subsequently discovered, to his great re-
gret. Here are his own words for the rest
of the incident:
"Fortune, however, is kinder towards bad
poetry than good The lines were found by
a lady, some weeks later, and restored to
me through the columns of the New York
Tribune. | have lost better poems since,
and nobody picks them out of the dust"

EXPORTS OF CALIFoRIA PRoDUCE.-We have
compiled from San Francisco journals the

fornia produce from that port, for the year
1859. The exports were made to New York,
Mexico, Sandwich Islands, Australia, Peru,
British Columbia, New Granada, Chile, So
ciety Islands, Manila, Japan, Russia in Asia
and America, England, France, Central Am
erica and Johnstons Islands, and indicate
the beginning of a great commerce. The
most prominent articles were the cereals

APPETITEs OF SPIRTTs.-It is now conceded
by leading students of spiritual phenomena
that the departed retain traces at least of
their old habits and appetites. A spirit who
on earth used rum and tobacco, Graves them
in the spheres, and seeks qualification of
his appetites by the economical process of
absorption from "mediums." Death pro-
dnces no marvellous and miraculous change
in the soul, nor is that immortal essence at
once gifted with Infinite knowledge. 1t must
ascend to perfection by degrees, of which
death itself is one. Upon this hypothesis
writer in the Telegraph remarks, that the old
notion of spirits accounts for the disgust
many feel at the fiat and insipid nature of
large portion of the communications pro-
fessedly received from them. eff, instead Of
these communications coming from Spirits,
they had come from mortals, nothing would
have been thought of it; for the ordinary
conversation of persons of education, if put
in print or written down, would appear fiat
little change in US as it does to lay off an
overcoat. how can ii be expected that spirits
should in few brief hours become translated
into purified, refined and elevated beings
How can a man who has for many years ha
bituated himself to alcoholic stimulants, and
passed months and even years in intoXica
tion, spring at once into purity and wisdom?"
This may account for the insipidty and er
rors of ignorant and vicious spirits, but does
not explain why Shakespeare, Milton, Frank
lin, Webster, and a host of other diStin
guiShed brightnesses, should glimmer on rs
so duly as they have. Their post-mortem
writings make living authors fancy that the
worst thing they can do for their regulations
is, to die.

INDEPENDENT PAPERs.-The leading New
York papers are said to have done a good
business for 1859. The Tribune profits are
put as high as 100000, and the value of
the whole establishment at $500, 900. The
Herald has been equally as profitable, if not
more SO. The Times ranks third. The Eu-
ening Post is probably not far behind. Bon
ner's Ledger has ii steady circulation of 400,-
600, of which number $4,000 constitutes
its mail list, the rest being sold by news
men. OF a single number as many as 450,
900 copies have been printed. The Office is
besieged on publication day by larger crowds
than used to surround the San Francisco
post Office in early years.

Pacific ExPosIToR.-Th January number
of this handsome religious serial, contains a
sermon which was preached by the editor,
Dr. Scott, on the progress and development
of civil liberty and religions freedom. In
this sermon, the opinion is advanced that
the Reformers never asserted the true free
dom and independence of The Christian
church, but relied npon the secular arm, and
united with national politics. In these
points they committed very grave errors,
and utterly failed to comprehend their own
doctrines it will be seer from this passage
that the Doctor himself is radically consis-
tent Another article in this number Of the
Etpositor, by a contributor, declares that
Mrs. Stowe exhibits a growing disposition
to throw obloquy and reproach on, what are
generally considered, the orthodox doctrines
of the scriptures.

The rates of labor in San Francisco range
from two to three dollars. Mechanics and
artizans get from three to five dollars, and
even more. a days wages in the mines is
ing to an exchange, able bodied men are
working in some parts of Eldorado county
for twelve dollars per month and board
Farm hands in the lower country get thirty
dollars per month, and some of the farmers
think that too much. New corners should
settle on piece of land in the hills, where
wages keeps up and the poorest may become
independent

Senator Chase has our thanks for copy
of Lambert's Homographic chart of the Leg
islature and officers of State. From it we
learn that all our State officers are very
young men. Gov. Latham is only 33, Lieut.
Gov. Downey the same, Secretary Price Sc,
Controller Brooks 80, Treasurer Findley-
his second term-only %, Attorney General
Wiiliams-his second term also-3l, Sur
veyor Higley 81, and Printer Bolts, 81 OF
course the last statement is q funny typo
graphical error, as the judge must be fifty
at least. According to the chart he came to
California in l647, at the tender age of seven
years. The majority of the Legislature are
young men and unmarried.

The citizens of Carson City have adopted
provisional constitution for a municipal
government, and intend to elect "A board OF
supervisors, justices of the peace, marshal
and recorder. 1t is suggested by the Enter
prise that the famous Comstock lead be called
after the Pi-Ute Indians, aud the town itself
after their noted chief Win ne mocker. The
last is a good suggestion The name would
always remind fast young men that wine a
mocker is, and strong drink is raging. Has
Pierce let that off yet?

AMERICAN ART.-We mention it to observe
with just pride that it is taking rank with
the noblest anywhere. The painting and
the peice of sculpture now attracting most
admiration in the artistic and popular world,
are Church's s'Heart of the Andes"-exhbit-
ing in London--and Palmers "White Cap
tive" on exhibition in New York. Church's
painting has been termed the greatest mod
ern landscape, at least since Turner died;
and Englands first living painter has called
its author wonderful genius. Palmer is a
home taught and nearly self taught Albany
boy, yet critics pronounce his 'White Cap
tive" fault.ess and unrivalled. One says of
it-"The subtleties of expression, in feature
and form, in body and limb, as we'll as in
face, are wonderful and the effect, even
upon the insenstive visitor, is impressive.
Though it be nude form of girl of twenty,
there is neither shrinking in modcsty nor the
eager stare of vulgar immortality, in the
sight. 1t neither offends the one, nor feeds
tue otnef. 1ne perfection or form appeals
to every latent love of the beautiful, and
the vigor and depth of expression touches
the germ of every spectators ideality." The
same writer says that the head, (which is
the most splendid that ever sat on womans
shoulders, was copied exactly, with the al
teration of single feature, from that of a
young lady of Western Massachusetts,, cell
ebrated for her beauty" That even the sor-
did may take an interest in this piece of al
most living marble we will add that il cost
its owner, Hamilton Fisk, about S5 ,OoO-
Church's painting has been bought by an
other New Yorker for $40. .0O0-for an Amer
lean picture price without precedent.

1t is in the power of the great landhold-
ers of California to add much to its wealth
and attractiveness, and to the happiness of
its people. By judicious management the
vast estates may be cultivated or mined in
such a manner as to enrich the owner and
adorn the State. 1t is to be hoped that they
will avoid the obnoxious system of leasing,
which has been the source of many and Sc
rious evils in other States, to the proprietor,
the occupant and the community at large

The Scientific american dsproves the story,
which has lately been extensively published,
that one Jas. G. Hendrickson, now dead, had
invented perpetual motion machine. The
statement that such a machine ran ten
months at the Patent office is not true. Tech
nically there is no such thing possible as
perpetual motion: relatively the idea is true,
practical and has often been realized.

The project of dividing Sierra county is

current expenses of county government;
