THE WIFE OF PRESIDENT PoLK-A corrt

THE WIFE OF PRESIDENT POLKA cores
pondent ofthe New Hampshire Patriot writes
from Nashville as follows:
Mrs. Polk is probably the most generally
known of any woman in America, and is
universally conceded to be the most amiable,
accomplished and intelligent woman of her
time. She possesses that graceful ease of
manner, tact and readiness in conversation,
which makes every one feel at home in her
society, and renders her conversation so
charming. She contested the palm of pop
ularity evenly with Mrs. Madison, and with
that single exception, was much the most
popular lady that ever did the honors at the
White House; while here in Nashville she is
regarded with love and admiration that
approach to reverence. Regularly, on the
first of January, the Legislature of Tennes-
see adjourns by formal vote to permit mem
bers to pay their respects to Mrs. Polk-an
honor never accorded to any other person,
not even General Jackson himself-and,
with the Speakers of both Houses at their
head, proceed in body to her house. Their
action affords fair instance of the respect
and esteem in which she is held

CHINESE DIVISION OF TME.-The Chinese
New Year began this season on our January
22d, but on next year it will come on our
February Sd, and this is the reason The
Chinese still measure time by the heavenly
bodies; their months are moons-twelve
moons for year; but as there is difference
between the solar year and year of twelve
moons, they find it necessary to put in an
intercalary now and then. In the space of
nineteen years there are seven intercalary
moons, which constitute a "complete period"
the saros Of the Chaldeans, as some con-
slider it, The intercalary is introduced after
every thirty-two months. Reckoning from
the commencement of the period of nineteen
years, the intercalary comes after the ninth
month of the third year, the second after the
sixth month of the sixth year, the third after
the third month of the ninth year; and the
year on which they have now entered being
the ninth of the nineteenth, they must have
thirteen moons, and the intercalary will oc-
cur after the third moon, and they will have
taco months called the third month.-Pacifc.

PRESERVING GRAIN.-One of the most inn
portant pieces of information to the farmers
of California is the method of preserving
grain for many years, completely sheltering
it from weavil, mildew, wet, etc. That in
formation is furnished in a letter from NJ
de Semchoff, a Russian landholder, who ad-
dressed it to the Academy of Sciences in
Paris, and was there read at late meeting
of that body. The following is NJ de Sem
chofss description of the method of preserv-
ing grain in Russia, which we earnestly re-
commend to our California agrculturists
The pits are dug in dry soil, and instead of
masonry, the sides are hardened by long
continued exposure to a wood fire. Before
the corn is introduced, the air in the pit is
rarified by burning some straw in it, after
which, the grain is thrown in, packed close
and the pit tightly inclosed. Corn has been
preserved in such pits for forty years. Some
of our California farmers who raise large
crops of grain should try this method of
preserving it during years when there is a
great yield, in order to lay up store for
succeeding years, when there may be infe-
rior yiclds.-S. r. Herald

FINE CoMPLMENT.-Rev. H. B. Sheldon,
who is known to many of the citizens of
North San Juan, among whom he once re-
sided, was lately the recipient of surprise
visit from large number of his friends in
Downieviilc. Noticing the incident, the
Citizen thus observes:
Religion loses none Of its sanctity by
wearing the garb of chcerfulaess and amia-
bility and Virtue is ever more attractive in
smiles than in frowns; he who is delegated
to fill the sacred and exalted office of spirit
ual guide and counselor to a community,
should ever pursue such course as is CAL
culated at once to gain the affectionate re-
gard and command the respect of those
among whom he is called to labor; by this
means only may he hope for success in his
mission of Hope and Mercy. D isclaiming the
slightest intention of making any invidious
comparison, Mr.. Sheldon has, in our opiu-
ion, in an eminent degree fulf lied these re-
quirements of truly useful teacher of the
hearts of the people; and if the kindly re-
gard of whole community may place it
peculiarly within The power of any one man
to exercise a benefcent influence, Mr.. Shell
don is the man.

SAVINGS BANKs.-The Standard advocates
the establishment of savings banks in this
State, and thinks that wkiie they would af
ford secure place of deposit for the earn
ings Of our people, they would put in circu-
lation millions of capital now unproftably
secreted, because the owners have no con-
fidence in bankers. The Standard concludes
thus:
According to the system of savings banks,
established in England, loss to the depositor
is impossible. Every district is authorized
to establish a savings bank, provided the
property owners will pledge their property
TO certain amount to make up losses by
fraud-the only losses possible, because trus-
tees would manage the affairs of the bank
in the capacity Of directors Reports are
made quarterly from each of these banks to
the central Office in London, and the profits
of the whole system are applied to the pay
ment Of the interest on the national debt
a system somewhat similar might be estab-
lished IN California with advantage. If the
interest to be paid by these banks to deposi-
tors, for specified time, should be fixed at
Z per cent. and the rate of interest demanded
for loans at II, profit of per cent. would
be realized. Render the depositor secure
and money will become plenty enough. This
is the way to reduce the rates of interest and
not by usury laws.

THE Suns EcLIPsE.-On July 18th of the
present year, the suns disc will be totally
eclipsed, and the phenomena will be a very
important one to the scientific world. The
director of the Dorpat Observatory was the
first to remark that at the moment of OBJ
scuration four of the principal planets-Ye-
nus, Murcury, Jupiter and Saturn-will ap-
pear in the vicinity of the eclipsed sun as u
kind of rhombodal figure, phenomena of
such extraordinary rarity that many centu-
ries will elapse before its repetition. Dark
ness will commence and terminate ON the
land, the localities being California and the
shores of the Red Sea- Between these ex-
treme points the eclipse viii be visible in
North America, from whence the moons
shadow will pass across the Atlantic and ira
verse Spain.

Mint DRoPs.-Statistics of the operations
of the L. S. branch mint in San Francisco,
since the Sd of April 1854, show that the
whole amount of gold bullion received, is
6,237,744 SO ounces-worth, after melting,
$l1l,054,3 1920 80.
It's estimated that this amount in stand
ard gold, would weigh 2O4 tons and 1,3l5
pounds. In twenty dollar pieces, it would
be sufficient to compose chain extending
1882 miles. 1t would make solid block
whose sides would be 7 feet 8 inches in a
solid sphere, and feet I inches in diameter.

The New Year reioicipes of the Jananes

The New Year rejoicings of the japanese
are similar to those of the Chinese One
feature of the difference is, that the people
retire to rest early in the evening, to enjoy

those who have conducted themselves well
during the preceding year are destined to
have. Indulgence is even shown at this
epoch to prisoners; they are relieved from
their chains, permitted to shave themselves,
