FAMILY INTERCOURSE AT THE TABLE-TO meet
at the breakfast table father, mother children,
all well, ought to be happiness to any heart;
it should be source of humble gratitude, and
should wake up the warmest feelings Of our
nature. Shame upon the con temptible and low
bred cur, whether parent or child, that can ever
come to the breakfast table, where all the fam
ily have met in health, only to frown, and whine,
and growl and fret 1t is primd facie evidence
of mean, and grovelling, and selfish, and de-
graded nature, whencesoever the churl may have
sprung. Nor is it less reprehensible to make
such exhibitions at the tea table; for before the
morning comes some of the little circle may be
staicken by some deadly disease TO gather round
that table not again forever
Children in good health, if left to themselves
at the table, become, after few mouthfuls,
garrulOus and noisy; but if within at all reason
able bounds, it is better to let them alone, they
eat less, because they do not eat rapidly as if
compelled to keep silent. while the very exhila-
ration of spirits quickens the circulation of the
vital fluids, and energizes digestion and asslmila-
tlon The extremes Of society curiousy meet in
this regard. The tables of the rich and the mobiles
OF England are models of mirh, wit, and bon
hommie; it takes hours to get through repast,
and they live long If any body will look in
upon the negroes Of a well to do family in Ken

EFFORTS AT CONCIIIATG0N.--In a recent debate
IN the United States Senate, participated in by
Seward, Douglas, Mason and Hale, a spirit of
fraternal kindness was evnced on the one side,
ana the opposite on the other. Gov. Seward,
with an urbanity and moderation worthy of the
man and the crisis, endeavored bv every means
III his power as far as human language could go,
TO pacily and conciliate the secessonsts. He
was cordially sustained by Douglas, who, on this
occasion at least, failed to give vent to his cha.

Soothe 'he angry spirit OF disunion. These two

A PREDICTION FOR San FRANCIsCO-An indi-
vidual, of speculative turn, yesterday wrote a
letter in the presence of a number of witnesses,
which letter he deposited in the archives OF a
public institution. This letter marked on
the envelope: ITO be opened on the 4th day of
July, 1867 fifteen years hence. 1t contains a
number of assertions, to what will be the
population and general condition of San Fran
cisco at that time. The figures have been care
fully considered, and the political horoscope
based upon a continuance of the American Uniou
during that decade and a half. Those who are
present when this letter is opened will read
among other things the Pacific Railroad is com
pleted, and in fine running order. San Francisco
contains 100000 inhabitants; lines of steamships
diverge to all parts of the Pacific Ocean. All of
Rincon Point, and, in fact, the whole of the
present city in that direefion, about Mission Bay
and Steamboat Point. is wilderness of great
black brick foundres, mills and chimnies, smoky
and noisy. The "Court end" Of the city is out
beyond Mason, and west and south of Market
street. The Beideman tract is covered with
houses; the San Jose Railroad has built up all
that region Of country, and San Mateo and
vicinity is shown the "suburbs," where many
business men reside and take the cars into town
any hour in the day. We communicate with
Washoe by railroad. Unheard of wealth is
| pouring into the lap of San Francisco from all
the surrounding silver and gold regions. Palatial
residences are built along our throughfares,
and the commercial metropolis is getting to
be the most luxurious city in America.-Aua

THE COUNTRY EDITOR.--The editor of the
Mountdn Messenger, one Of the very best Of our
Interior exchanges, thus speaks OF the labors Of
the mountain editor. After referring to the
number OF persons usually employed on the daily
Journals, he continues " How is il with the in
terror journals? Why the individual known as

aud travel about during spring and summer to
collect mining items for his little paper. Now
we do not pretend to assert that every country
editor performs all the labors above enumera ed ,
but majority OF the mountain editors do. We
will venture the opinion that there are not ten
interior journals in California now employing
each person to do the editing alone-in fact we
do not know of one mountain paper in the State
that could afford TO employ man for the sole
purpose of editing. Economy is quite necessary
IN the business of publishing a mountain paper

per corses in this State annually are but proofs
that rigid economy must be practicpd to prolong
newspaper life. Those who think the local paper

portance in the trouble incurred in publishing"

Notwithstanding the enormous amount
ofsiver which the mines of Peru have
yielded, only very smaIl portion Of the
silver mines have been worked. II is we'll
known fact that the Indians are aware of
the existence of many rich mines, the stu
alton Of which they will never disclose.
Heretofore, mining has been to them all
toll and little profit, aud il has bound them
in chains from which they cannot easily
emancipate themselves For centuries past
fhe knowledge of some of the richest silver
mines has been, with inviolable secresy,
transmitted from father to son. All en-
deavors to prevail OH them to divuIge these
secrets have been frutless. Ia the village
Of Huancayno there lived a few years ago
two brothers, Don Jose and Don Pedro
Yriarte, two Of the most eminent mineros
Of Peru. Having obtained certain inform
alton that in the neighboring mountains
there existed some veins of pure silver,
they sent young man, their agent, to en-
deavor TO gain further knowledge on the
subject. The agent took up his abode IN
the cottage of shepherd. TO whom, howev-
er. he gave not the slightest intimaion OF
the object Of his mission. After little
time, an attachment sprung up between the
young man and the shepherds daughter,
and tic girl promised to disclose TO her low
er, the position of very rich mine. On
certain day. when she was going out to
tend ber flock. she told him to follow at a
distance, aud to notice the spot where she
let drop her manta by turning mp the
earth on that spot, she declared he would
find the mouth of mine. The young man
did as be was directed. and after digging
short time, he discovered . mine of consid-
cradle depth, containing rich ore. Whilst
be was engaged in breaking out the metal,
he was joined by the girls father who ex-
pressed himself delighted at the discovery,
and offered to assist him. After they had
been at work for some hours, the old In
dian handed to bis companion cup of CHI
cha. which the young man thankfully ac'
cepted. But he had no sooner tasted the
liouor than he felt ILL., and he soon became
convinced that poison had been mixed with
the beverage he had tasted. He snatched
up the bag Of metal he had collected, mount
ed his horse, and with the utmost speed
rode off to Huancayno, where he related
all that occurred, described as accurately
as be could the situation of the mine, and
died on the next day. Active measures
we're Immediately set on foot to trace out
the mine, but without success. The Indian
and his family had disappeared, and the
mine was never discovered.

BATAvIA.-Batavia, the capital city of the
island of Java, according to the description
of q newspaper correspondent, is brilliant
specimen Of oriental splendor. The houses
which are white as snow, are placed two or
three hundred feet back from the street,
the intervening space being filled with trees
literally alive with birds, and every varie-
ty of plants and flowers. Every house has
a piazza in front decorated with beautiful
pictures, elegant lamps, bird cages, &c,
while rocking chairs, lounges, &c, of the
incest description furnish luxurious accom-
modations for the family, who sit here
mornings and evenings. AT night, the city
is in one blaze of light from the lamps. The
hotels have grounds Of eight or ten acres
in extent around them, covered with fine
shade trees, with fountains, flower gardens.
&c. Indeed so numerous are the trees, the
city almost resembles forest. The rooms
are very high and spacious, without car
pets, and but few curtains. Meals are serv-
ed up in about the same style as at first
class hotels in the United States, although
the habits Of living are quite different. AT
daylight, coffee and tea are taken to the
guests room. and again at eight O'Clock,
with light refreshments. At twelve break
fast is served. and at seven. dinner. Coffee
and tea are always ready, day aad night.
No business is done in the street in the
middle Of the day, on account Of the heat.
The nights and mornings are cool and de-
lightful birds are singing all night The
thermometer stands at about $50 through.
out the year The Island of Java contains
q population of l0,0OO,OOO; the city Of Ba.
tavia, 10000. The island abounds with
tigers, leopards. anacondas, and poisonou:
insects of all kinds. The finest fruits in the
world are produced in great profusion.

A CURloUs HIsroRIcAL FAcr.--Those who
take aa interest in the cuFiosities OF history
have had their attention called to the fact
that during the $50 years the Tuileries has
been a royal dwelling. no French sovereign
has died within It's walls. Still more strange
is II to note that since 1888 every sovereign
of France who has made the Palace .his
abode. has been compelled, at some time or
other, to quit the shelter OF its roof. Those
of our readers who are learned in omens
aud prognostics, and still more. those OF
them who have watched European events,
and have thus acquired some skill! in read
ing the "signs of the times" have fine
field of speculation opened up for them in
regard to The future of The present occupa-
ton of the Tuileries taken in connection
with what is just stated.
