TINES. A correspondent of the Police Ca
zette write: At Campo Seco, or Chinese
Camp, Il have forgotten which, lived a native
of Chile and his wife, She was handsome, and
Of a certainty had host of admirers, one of
whom advised her to get a divorce. Being
ignorant of the law, she went TO the Justice,
who informed her that for two ounces he would
give her a divorce the next day. The amount
was paid. The constable, hearing of the cir
cumstance, went to the husband, and, unfolding
the attempt of his wife, offered to prevent the
separation for eight ounces, which amount was
also readily paid. The next day the parties
appeared before the Justice, who Immediately
pronounced the following able decision Clear
out of this honorable court, aud live together
as man and wife, Or in any other way that
pleases you, for you will not get divorce here,
or in any other court in the State. This court
knows the law, and cannot be corrupted =

We're garnered in measureless store:
All bound in sheaves, ike corn in the leaves,
And failed from husk to core;
And the angels sang, with voices sweet
"0ut Of the grain the dross we beat,
Out Of the Chaff we winnow the wheat:
True souls are the wheat of a nation -
I dreamed Of a wonderful Vintage
| dreamed of wine press red.
Where men, like grapes. by angel-shapes,
Were trodden with wrathful tread;
As grapes ye work. TO must and to muIk,
And crush them shred by shred.
And the angels sang with tongue divine
"0ut of the mnrk the must we find,
Out of the grapes we mellow the wine;
Brave hearts are the wine Of a nation -
would that my dreams were real
That angels this land might beat
And scourge our sod with fails of God,
And scatter ehaff from the wheat,
And mighty tread in our wine press red
All dross beneath their feet
That our souls might sing in joyous strain
"Out of the chat the wheat we grain,
Out of the murk the wine We drain,
The wheat and the wine of our nation =
pray that the Angel of Freedom
May strive with the Angel of War.
TIL men like grain. these winnowers twain
Shall tlail from husk TO core;
Till men, like wine, in hbation divine,

And foreyermore sing, with tongue divine

TIRES inventions have appeared lately that
will, perhaps, ultimately revolutionize those
branches Of industry they are designed to ef
feet. One is an engraving machine, which
produces on steel designs from surfaces, either
fat or in relief. with marvellous fidelity. The
second is g spiral trowel, which. when attached
to ploughshare, cuts round hole, so that, in
few hours, permanent drain is formed-the
processes of ploughing and draining going on
simultaneously. The third is triae but a
useful trihe. II is a match which cannot be
ignited by any species Of friction. nor by FIRE
itself, but only by being rubbed against the
box prepared for its reception, which is coated
with the fame giving property.

MEN love women for their natures-not their
accomplishments for their warm feelings,

More men of genius marry and are happy with

than ever venture to take brilliant wives and
enjoy snowy misery.

4 FABLE.-When the horse and the stag
ranged free in their native forests, the horse
became envious of the stags feetness, and
scaght some means of doing the stag an injury
In his uncertainty, he applied to man for aid
in the matter, who proposed that he should
saddle, bride and ride the horse, by which
means alone the stag could be run down and
captured To all this the horse consented;
but mark the result. The man bridled and
saddled the horse and rode him, and captured
the stag, but when the horse reqsested him TO
dismouut, he refused assigning as one of the
reasons for the refusal that an animal Of such
speed and strength required to be under sub
lection. Moral. This fable teaches the Re
pubcans that, if they permit themselves to be
bridled and sadded and ridden after Democrats,
for the purpose of putting them in Aleatraz,
they may find upon their backs, rider who
will neither dismount nor remove the bride
This fable might teach many editors in this
State-Democrats as well as Republicans
that, the surest way to lose its power is for
one portion Of the press to endeavor to abridge
the liberties of the other portion, which in
turn must retalate until there is no liberty
left to either Amador Dispatch.

ever erected. Its diameter was Coo feet-40
feet more than the major axis of tie Coliseum.
