BY MRS. j. E. AKERs.
Talk not to me of stately halls,
And mansions bright and f.,r,
For cherished memory often brings
To M nd place more dear
Yes, though they think that forget,
AS abroad DER earth | roam,
Fond memory loves to lingcr still
'nound the dear old home.
Oh happy home Of by-gonc days,
Twas hard to say farewell.
And feel that meath your Sheltcring root
| never more might dwell: he arth
Though strangers gathered 'rounl yolr
While abroad must roam.
Yet oh my heart still fondly clings
TO .hc dear old home.
There were nc'er to me such fowors
AS tn. roses al oar door,
None were ever halt as fragrant
AsthoSt sec no moro:
No trccso' grass II half as dear
Wherever have roamcd
As the orchard and the meadow,
Oi the dear old home.
There are other trees more stately,
Bat none to me so dear,
As the old Oak standing in the lane,
Though its leaves have long been scar;
Was it that beneath its gentle >hule
Little feet n" more woulG comc..
That it dropped and withcred when We lcf
The dear Old home!
And the Elm that stood be idle the cato,
Whclc oft I've staid to see
The coming Of the abscn. one,
There's no such Elm for mo
And the littlc white church Just over the wa,
How dear was thai simple dome.
Oh sad il my heart when | think Of thco,

RAIN IN CALIFoRNIA.-The Grass Valley
National of the llth inst, after giving some
rain strtistics of other countries. has the fol-
lowing suggestions as TO what may be eX-
pected in California:
BY reference to the statistics given above
it will be seen that there are localities, al
most precisely similar in situation TO that Of
Central California, the meteorological pho
nomena Of which have been observed for
such number of years as in all probabi
ity, to give pretty correct record Of eX.
tremes of rain 1t will be noticed that these
localities in their seasons Of extreme rains
have witnessed falls of water, in amount,
absolutely terrible TO think of. Until within
comparatively few years no rain records
have been kept in California. The few years
that they have been kept exhibits an annual
average of only about five feet; but there is
no reason, judging from analogy, why we
may not look for double or treble that
amount of rain in unusual seasons, an
amount which would be required in the
mountains to produce the result in the val
lies claimed by old Californians and the na-
tive Indians. But one-third of the present
season has thus far passed, and yet our re-
cord shows that we have reached fully TO
our annual average Of rain-iive feet Is
there any reason to believe that we have
not yet ten feet more in store for,us? Ger
tainly not. Neither is there any reason to
disbelieve we may not, under favorable cir
cumstances, at some future time, experience
a fail Of five feet in half or even one quar-
ter of the time in which that amount has
fallen, the present year. These are matters,
which it may be profitable to think OF, and
may it not be well to guard against such
possibilities!

TIE FLOOD IN Ell DoRADH.-The whole
Of El Doraeo county has suffered more or
less from the recent food. Every bridge in
the county, with the exception of that over
Weaver creek, between Diamond Springs
and Placerville. have been carried away
At Placerville, the Hangtown creek
rose to such hight as to wash away sew
ei al dwellings, stables and outhouses, wag.
ons, cord-wood, lumber, etc., in fact,
swept evrything away within its reach.
At Mud Springs there were three feet of
water in the town, flooding the houses, but
doing no particular damage.
The Chinese portion ofColoma was wash
ed clear, and several lives were lost. The
Chinese suffered considerable loss from des-
truction of their goods.
The roads between Carson Valley aud
Placerville being impossible, the Overland
Mail Company send their mail, express and
treasure out on pack-mules, and dispatch a
saddle train for the accommodation of pas
sengers. They have got a large force of
wOrkmen to repair the roads with all expe-
dition, with the view Of reopening vehicu.
lar traffic.
A heavy land slide occurred thirty-fve
miles above Placerville, on Friday, the 10th
inst A letter from gentleman near the
vicinity, states as follows IA heavy land
slide came off the mountains, about three
quarters of a mile from Webster's, this NOR
ming. and for some time it was feared thvt
il would make a clean sweep, but it went
through a ca1on. To give you an idea of
its magnitude, have only to state, that it
took rocks, measuring fifteen to twenty
feet through extended over one hundred
yards in width, and was about twenty-five
feet deep. 1t made noise very similar to
an earthquake, and shook the houses SO we
could scarcely stand.

GEN. p. ST. GEoGE CooK.-An exchange
says that this Federal officer, who commit

ted States. He commanded the Mormon
battalion which entered this State in 1S47,
TO fight The Mexicans, and made highly
popular and efficient officer. He was the
successor to General johnson in the COM
mand of our forces stationed at Salt Lake
TO keep the MormoDs loyal and law-abid-
ing, and had just returned from that post
