ARTIFICIAL lCE-MAKING IN INDIA.-In por-
tions of India where the temperature of the
air never falls below 400 ice is regularly
made for sale by simply cutting off water
from receiving heat, and allowing it TO ra-
diate portion of that which it contains
Large pits are dug some two feet deep, and
filled nearly full of straw, and on this the
water is set in broad shallow pans. The
straw being very slow conductor of heat,
prevents that which is in the earth from as
cending to the pans; and the pans are placed
a very little below the surface of the plain to
avoid any breeze, and thus prevent a renewal
of warm air from continuing the supply of
heat to the water. On clear and still nights,
these arrangements are found to be success
full, and ice is produced in considerable
quantities for market. The water thus
placed continues to radiate its heat as it is
always doing; and, being cut off from its
usual sources of supply, the temperature
soon falls to the freezing points. When there
are clouds in the sky, ice does not form ;
the clouds, radiating heat as well as water,
send down enough o keep the water too
warm to freeze. A wind also prevents the
formation of ice; the water being supplied
with heat by constant contact with fresh
bodies of warm air. The pans of water are
placed on broad plains, where they may be
exposed to large portion of the sky, and
out of view of other masses of matter from
which they might receive heat; as heat, like
light, moves in straight lines.-Scientifc

RUNNING Down WILD HoRsEs.-The Mex
leans sometimes reserve an old steed in ma
tive wildness, for the purpose of firing down
band of mustangs. They stuff suit of
old clothes with tules; and then tie it in an
erect position on his back, and when band
of mustangs is discovered he is turned loose.
The stud with straining flight seeks the
band; they see him coming, apparently with
a rider on his back, and away they go, he
after them-wondering why they fly away
so rapidly from his presence. His native
signals are all useless, they heed him not
they see the figure on his back-anxious
fears lend swiftness to their speed; straining
his sinews for a determined effort, be rushes
after them with the pace of the wind, urged
on by all the fury of revenge. The Mexicans
are keenly watching the race, and when they
think the band is nearly used up by running
away from imaginary danger, they rush in
on fresh horses, and then the sweeping la
riat descends over the heads of the tired
mustangs.-Aarposa Democrat.

A HIGHLY DIVERSIFIED JoURNEY.-A young
miner who recently arrived at San Andreas
from Pine Grove, Sierra county, where the
snow was eight feet deep when he left, thus
describes his journey: From Pine Grove to
Rabbit creek, eight miles, he travelled on
snow shoes; from Rabbit creek to the New
York House, he took pack mule; thence
to Marysville, the stage; thence to Sacra-
mento, the steamer; thence to Folsom, the
railroad cars; thence to San Andreas, the
stage again. The whole distance is short of
two hundred miles; but the climate is more
varied in that short distance than from the
Big Trees to the city of Memphis, Tennessee.

STORY OF MoUsE.-Not long ago, says
the Marysville Democrat, mouse was found
dead in small empty bottle in one of the
drug stores in this city. A number of bot
ties were stuffed in box of straw and a
grain or two of wheat was in one of them.
1t was evident that the mouse had gone in
after the wheat. Going in was very easy
but getting out was different affair. The
slant of the glass from the neck of the bottle
prevented the little verdant from getting any
hold with his claws so as to reach the mar
rowing point at the neck. Accordingly he
perished of starvation. The vain exertions
which he made to get out may be imagined
but not described. This is the first instance
we have ever known of a mouse loosing his
life by a resort to the bottle. With men the
catastrophe is much more frequent.

But PARTLY AssEssED.-We are told that
the assessed value of the property in the
State is but one hundred and thirty millions,
while other States of equal population have
more. To this we will say, that the property
of California is but partly assessed the til
tie to great portion of the occupied lands
has not passed from the United States, and,
therefore, is not estimated, neither are the
mines, whose value in the aggregate would
amount to many millions, and from which
are extracted annually about fifty millions
of dollars. Estimating the value of all
classes of property as closely as is done in
the Eastern States, we think the proportional
value of property to inhabitants in Califor-
MIA, would far exceed that of the other
States of the Union.-O6srcer

EcoNoMY.-Economyi is not the mean-'pen-
ny-wise, pound-foolish" policy which many
suppose it to be; it is the art of calculation
Joined to the habit of order, and the power
of proportioning our wishes to the means of
CRAFTY ing them. The little pilfrng temper
of wife is despicable and odious to every
man of sense; but there is a .j,tdscious graceful
economy, which has no connection with an
avaricious temper, and which, as it depends
upon the understanding, can be expected
from cultivated minds. Women who have
been well educated, far from despisng domes-
TIC duties, will hold them in high respect, be-
cause they will see that the whole happiness
of life is made up of the happiness of each
particular day and hour, and that much of
the enjoyment of these must depend upon
the punctaeal practice Of virtaes which are more
Ualua6le than splendid-Naria Edgeacorth.

A PROLIFIC NAT1oN-A Southern paper
thinks it would be hard to find anywhere
"more lawyers, doctors, colonies, captains,
majors and squires, more legislation, and
laws less understood, more migratory popu-
lation, more half-cooked biscuit, harder
corndodgers, less care for expenses, more
regard for females, more go aheaditiveness,
more Bibles and more novels, more religion
and more devils, more cleyerness and liber-
ality, more real independence, wilder oxen,
more polteness and gawklness, more dan
gerous steamboats,, unsafer banks, more
pitching horses and awkward dances, than
in our beloved and honored United States.

The IRON CARA recent trip to Patterson
enabled the New York Tribune to examine
the new railway car in actual use. 1t is
made to seat the usual number of passen-
gers, but is much lighter than the ordinary
wooden car. The plates of the boiler iron
are united together in such manner as to
create the greatest possible strength through
out. Outside it is painted oak color, and
the numerous rivets give it the appearance
of Gothic door. Inside, the panels be-
tween the large windows are ornamented
with tasteful painting, the seats are covered
with crimson plush, and there is drawing
room elegance throughout the apartment.
The Erie Railroad Company have but one car
now completed, but they are so satisfied of
its superiority for preserving passengers un-
hurt in cases of accident, as well as for its
durability, that it is likely to come into gen.
eral use. In view of the large proportion
of deaths and minor injuries which result
from the crushing of wooden cars when
thrown down embankments, or when in col
lision with each other, it is to be hoped that
the result of this first attempt to employ iron
in place of wood will prove satisfactory.

INHABITANTS OF AN OYsTER.-Observatio
with a microscope have shown that the shell
of an oyster is world occupied by an innu-
merable quantity of animals, compared to
which the oyster itself is a colossus The
liquid enclosed between the shell of the oys-
ter contains multitude of embryos, covered
with transparent scales, which swim with
ease. A hundred and twenty of these en-
bryos, placed side by side, would not make
an inch in breadth. This liquor contains
beside great variety of animalculae, FIVE
hundred times less in size which give out a
phosphoric light. Yet these are not the only
inhabitants of the dwelling-there are three
distinct species of worms.

To DANcERs.-A dancing master at Mari

was called to ''sashay" with the gent having
the biggest foot in the set, or the gent with
red hair, or with the long nose, or was the
fattest or handsomest, homelest, bes,
dancer, &C. The performance occasioned a
good deal of fun, and as might be expected
an occasional show of ill-temper by those
unfortunate individuals who cannot take 9

For the Press.
The First Blossom in February.
Up among the snowy ranges
Where the stately pine is sounding,
And the Yubas stream is bounding;
Where silver clouds are ever rising
From canons deep beyond surmising;
Up where winter swiftly changes
Into bright and balmy spring;
Where yellow-breasted robins sing,
And the hand of toll has wrought
Beauties worth poets thought
There, above the garden mold,
Late saw modest flower,
Born within that very hour.
Blue it was, as azure heaven,
When across its brow at even
Fleecy cloudlets CLEAN in gold;
Sweet, as bloom of mignionette,
Or a garden bed of clover
Just by April shower wet
Which the drowsy bee huns over:
A delicate young violet
With diamond in its bosom set
As toa human soul spoke,
Although no words the silence broke:
'Lonely blossom, why so early,
Why so early springest up,
Opening thy purple cup
To the dewy drops SO pearly?
Fearest not that Winter surly,
Rushing rudely, howlngpast
With his fierce and icy blast,
Will thy leaves with hoar frost tip,
And thy daring beauties nip
Fearest not, sweet, lonely blossom!'
Meekly towards the glorious sun
Turned that little floral head
Odorousy then it said:
E'Why was the Iairy earth begun?
Believest not, desponding one,
God protects whate'er he forms,
Shelters it from blighting storms,
Gives it strength with loveliness,
Worthy of His mightiness-
Sees He not the lonely blossom?
First of all the fowery train
On mission here am I,
Telling-Wi inter soon will die,
And Summer DER each hill and glen
Resume her brilliant sway again.
Buds are swelling on the bough,
Woodpeckers are tapping now;
Bobolinks, on briars swinging,
Fill the air with merry singing;
And see! the grass is springing green
Where leaps the fountains silver sheen,
And from the mountains azure line
There comes the spicy breath of pine,
Greeting me, the primal blossom
Here the Silly whisper ceased,
Like a spirit just released,
Or an odor lost in breathing,
Or flower that fades in wreathing;
And kept along my stroll
With this memory in my soul.
