The Law of Compromise in Nature.

In the beautiful world of nature are there
not twenty thorns to one rose ? Ay but how
many hundred petals, each a very masterpiece
of beauty and fragrance in itself, go to make
up the queen Of flowers? The very poisonous
plants and minerals, subdivided and prepared,
are but restoratives aud healing medicines, and
every child knows that close to the vicious
stinging- -nette grows the friendly, soothing
dock.leaf. So the beasts of prey reproduce
their kind but sparngly, and at long intervals,
whilst the lower animals, whose destiny it is to
supply them with food, are abundantly prolific,
and, as far as we can judge, especially adapted
to the enjoyment of that life which they hold
by so precarious tenure. The wilder kinds,
like the human savage, are subject to cold and
exposure, constant dangers, and occasional
shortcomings. Such is the price they pay for
their liberty. The domestic animals again en-
Joy warmth, food and comfort but in consider
alton of these advantages they must work, or
at least obey. All the way up the scale of in
ferior nature-from the snail carrying its house
on its back, but unable to move faster than a
yard or so in an hour, to the eagle soaring
aloft in the blue empyrean for whole after
noon, theme for poets and romancers, the
glorious child OF air, the messenger of Jove,
watching perhaps for some poor, miserable
rabbit that goes to ground after all, and dis
appoints him-compromise seems to be the
very condition upon which each and all hold
their existence The very changes of the sea.
sons, the very system that governs the universe
the very principle of attraction and expulsion
that keeps this old world rolling in its allotted
orbit through the inGnity of space, what are
they but extensions of notifications of the
! great rule of compromise
The weekly Butte record., 1861-12-21

THE BEST WEALTH.-The great struggle
with civilized men in this world is for wealth.
This is called the prime good, the one thing
needful, the great desideratum of life. So men
toll for it; sacrifice ease, comfort health for it,
deceive, cheat, defraud for it. The truth is, the
estimate put upon wealth is too high Its va
lue, its good Is over-rated. 1t is not the great
good. 1t is not the pearl of great price. 1t is
not the best thing man can have. 1t does not
confer peace Of mind, nor contentment, nor
home Joy, nor social bessedness, nor any of the
solid and enduring enjoyments. Wealthy homes
are not often happier than those Of the poor
and comfortable liyers. Poverty is always an
evil but fair supply of the necessaries and
comforts of life is quite as apt to confer real
peace as great wealth. 1t is not gold nor goods,
therefore, that makes men really wealthy. The
best wealth is of the heart, an enlightened mind,
loyal conscience, pure affections. lie is the
wealthiest who has the largest stock of wis
dom, virtue and l0ve-whose heart beats with
warm sympathes for his fellow.men, who finds
good in all seasons, all providences, and all
men. The generous man who pities the unfor-
tunate, the poor man who resists temptation,
the wise man who orders well his life, the stu
dious man who seeks instruction in all things,
are the truly wealthy men.

CURIosITIEs OF PHoToGRAPHY-We have in

THE JOURNEY OF LIFE.-Ten thousand hu.
man beings set forth together on their journey.
After ten years one-third at least have disap-
peared At the middle point of the common
measure of life, but half are still upon the road
Faster and faster as the ranks grow thinner,
they that remain till now, become wearied and
lie down to rise no more. AT three score and
ten, a band of some four hundred struggle on.
At ninety, these have been reduced to a hand
full of trembling patriarchs. Year after year
they fall in diminishing numbers. One fingers,
perhaps lonely marvel, till the century is
over We look again, and the work of death
is finished.

Hatching Young 0striches.

Since the French occupation oi Algeria os-
trches have been conveyed thence to France
in great numbers but until the instance now
to be recorded, brood had never been produ-
ced in France. 1t is very difficult, under the
necessary restraint of geological garden, 70
supply the necessary conditions for bringing
about this result. The attempt had been fire.
quently made to do so in the geological gar
dens of Marseies, but as frequently failed
Even last year, Notwithstanding the care devo-
ted to the ostriches in that establishment. and
though eggs we're laid in plenty, no young os-
triches could be hatched. The director, NJ
Soquet, however, was not to be ioiled. Failing
to accomplish what he desired in the gardens,
he bethought himself Of trying what could be
done out of them. In the territory of Montre-
don he selected a sandy plain situated between
the sea and the mountains, which form the
south east of the Gulf of Marseilles. The spot
belongs to NJ. Pastre, who kindly gave the
necessary cooperation. There large secluded
spot was fixed upon, sufficiently wooded to af
ford shelter, without intercepting the sunshine
necessary for quickening the eggs. After hav
ing enclosed a space 600 metres long by 500
wide, the birds were conveyed to their hatch
ing ground on March ID of this year. For a
few days the birds seemed to regard their new
quarters with suspicion, and ran anxiously
about. Soon, however, they settled themselves
and began laying. Their nest was at first a
simple excavation in the sand, in the form of a
truncated cone. Gradually the borders of this
hole were heightened by accumulation of more
sand. AT this labor the male and female bird
worked alternately. A few hours after the
completion of the nest, laying began, aud was
continued every alternate day, until the goth
of April Is eggs had been deposited. Up TO
this time the hen guarded the nest few hours
before and after incubation, sometimes for q
whole day. After April Goth, however, the
male bird commenced taking bis spell Of watch
ing, the lady only seeing to the household du>
ring periods when her lord and master was
temporarily absent from home. All seemed to
go satisfactorily According TO observations
made by NJ. Hardy, at Algers, the time of in
cubation should be from Sc to 60 days
Knowing this, NJ. Soquet was surprised when,
on June Sd, intelligence came that the first
young ostrich had opened its eyes to sunshine
on French soil. By the evening l were had
been hatched On the day following the young
birds left the nest aud began to wander over
their enclosure, guided alternately by papa and
mamma, who spared no trouble in this their
first walking lesson. During these excursions
one bird always fingered little behind. 1t
was weak, and soon died. thus reducing the
number of the young family to 10. They went
on growing rapidly so that by the Sth of Au-
gust they were as big as young turkeys, giving
every promise of arriving in due time at years
of discretion, and contributing for many sea
son to the grand tenue of many fair Paris
ienne.
