Reading for Young Ladies.

We observe, by a Kentucky paper, that a
lovely and most amiable young daughter of a
solid and doughty - corn-cracker" became " in
fatuated" to an uncomfortable extent, with a
gallant, dashing, and most worthy son of ano-
ther substantial and puissant % corn-cracker'-
and, lulsa 0ersa, as Samivel Weller would say
IN other words
This gallant young lovyer, so gay and so bold,
And this lovely young maiden, not quite nine
teen years old,
were "mutual admiration society" all to them
selves In short, they loved. just then the sun
of this young lady's happiness shone with such
resplendent effulgency, that she began to
weaken"-that is to say her eyes began to
grow dim, aud in short time she was in the
condition of young Teutonic virgin who once,
while giving the benefit OF quarters worth
Of organ music ,avaied herselfof the opportunity
to impart to US the information that the greatest
misfortune Of her life had resulted from an un-
fortunate habit of making her ped when she
couldn't see pin She then refused to marry
the young man aforesaid-declaring that she
loved him too much to become life burden to
him. To this he demurred, yowing that with
out her, half blind as she was, life would be a
bowling wilderness" to him-a world without
a sun-a perpetual purgatory-ay, not to make
the climax too agonzing, a brandy cocktail
with tue brandy and sugar omitted.
OF course she " weakened" all over this time
AS any young lady would, who had any of the
milk of human kindness in her breast. She
sented to become life burden to the worthy
young man aforesaid They were married, and
although the light irradiating from the great
centre Of the solar system was darkness to her
beautiful but sghtless eyes, halo of the bi ght-
flames of love shone in and around her-illu-
minating her soul with the refulgent rays of an
extatic felicity, &c, &c. The honey moon
commenced gloriously, of course, and was pro-
crossing felicitousy of a necessity, when 10 as
suddenly as the lightning strikes and rends Il
giant oak, her sight restored
MORAL FOR YoUSG LADIEs.-Whenever YOU
discover that your visual organs are growing
dim, GET MARRIED, and if your eyes are not
opened very speedily thereafter, say we are no
philosopher
p. S.--Of course this moral does not hold
good if the young lady had been, in the mean
while, using " Dr. Pilgarlick's Celebrated, In

The MINERAL WEALTH OF MBxCo.-Gen.
Shields in 8 lecture recently delivered in San
Francisco, thus alludes to the mineral resources
of Mexico
" The mineral wealth of Mexico is beyond the
bounds of human conception. So far from
that wealth having been discovered or develop
Ell, as vet the surface of the great mineral re-
gion of this continent has scarcely been
scratched. One journeys for weeks in the
FOUNTAINS over gold and silver mines, which
are not only accessible to the simplest appli-
ances of labor, but which would employ mil
lions and enrich world if there was anything
like the intelligent industry of California there
and that industry could have protection. In
Mexico Nature has heaped up her mineral
treasure. There is the treasure, there the
storshouse in which that treasure is laid away,
to be poured out at some future day upon an
astonished world. The wealth of California
and Australia is effecting revolution in hu-
man aifairs-the treasure of Mexico will COM
pete it,
