A WoNrERFuL MARE.--A -four year old
mare is on exhibition in New York, that
is entirely destitute of hair, name or tail.
She is about l4t hands high, with small.
beautiful head, bright, intelligent eye, legs
as clean as foars, and with tremendous
powerful hind quarters. She was caught
wild in the Southern part of Arizona, is
an astonishing leaper, while for speed her
owner is wiling to run her four miles
against any four years old, mare or geld
ing, for $4,000 a side. She has never
been driven in harness, but goes beaui-
fully under the saddle, and, singularly,
she never shows any symptoms of per-
SEPARATION on her skin, whatever may be
the amount of exercise that is given to
her.

A NUISANCE ABATED---The thirteenth
California LcgiSlature,--the Stupidest,
weakest and most worthless body Of
men ever assembled in Legislative >baDS-
adjourned sine die on Thursday. They
have bankrupted the State, disgraced
their constituents and made themselves
the laughing stock Of the country. From
the first to the last they seemed resolved
to do nothing creditable, and with re-
markable pertinacity they adhered to
their resolution. They spent their time
in childish discussions, in fixing up silly
platforms, in organizing humbug parties
and squandering the public funds. The
people will long remember the first and
last Republican Legislature of California.
One trial of Republican Legislation is suf-
ticirnt to last them century.

LATE Oregon papers state that it was
rumored at Lewiston, as the steamer was
starting for the lower country, that rich
diggings had been discovered on the South
side of Salmon, in the Snake River coun-
try. The whole country is crowded with
miners, spectators and loafers, waiting
for the roads to get in pasSable condition.
Reports from the mines are conflicting,
and it is a hard matter to determine whe-
Their they are hunibug or not.

A CHANCE FOR STAGE MEN.-The Car

FRUIT PRINTING--The Agranomische
Zeitung says: " AT Vienna, for some time
past, fruit dealers have sold peaches, pears,
apples, apricots, etc, ornamented with
armorial bearings, initials, names. &c.
The impression of these things is effected
in very simple manner; A fine fruit is
beginning to ripen, that is, to take red
color, and paper on which the designs are
neatly cut out, is affixed. After while
the envelope is removed, and the part of
the fruit which has been covered is bril-
liantly white. By this invention the pro
ducers of fruit may realize large sums" "

\ SOLDIER Turned BANKER.-The fol-
lowing performance is related by the ST.
Louis correspondent Of the Bulletin:
A spruce and gentecl person, dressed
in uniform and wearing the insignia of a
sergeant appeared at the office OF the Pro-
vost Guard, on sixth street, gave his name
MS Reed, aud presented all order for de-
tail OF SIX men TO 20 with him on very
important business. The order bore the
name of Capt Geo. +. Leighton in whose
service Reed claimed to be. Major Me
Conne,l, in charge of the office, examined
the order, and finding it irregular, de-
clined to furnish the men; and that was
the last oil Reed uuil yesterday morning,
when he repaired to the same place, and
in the absence of Major McCpnncll, pro
duced an order similar to that of the night
before. Lieut.. Ashton, who was acting
in the Majors place, thought the docu'
ment a rather strange one under the cir
cumstanceS, and believing it 10 be bogus,
as it really was, refused 10 acccde TO
Reeds wishes, making some Endorsement
on the back ot the order, referring it back
to Capt. Leighton.
But Reed was not to be put off by two
failures; he had got his head on certain
project, and was determined to persist
until perseverance could be of no longer
avail. Tearing up the second order as he
had done the first, he wrote another di-
rected to the captain Of a Wisconsin con-
pany at Camp Benton, and to see that it
was promptly delivered he took it himself.
Representing the extreme eXigency and
momentousness of the special business for
which the men were wanted, he succeed
ed this time in getting the detail, and
with his squad Sargent Reed hurried
back to town to carry out the inStruc-
tons" with which he Was charged. And
boldly were they executed. Proceeding
to the broker shop OF William Hammill 4
Co., on Broadway, above Cherry, the es-
tabliShment was Immediately Invested
and Mr.. HammlI and the clerks put under
arrest and taken off to the Broadway
Gar zen" under the escort Of the six Wis
conSin soldiers Meanwhile Reed remained
in charge of the Bank, but not long. Gath
ering W all the money he could cOnve'
niently stow away about his person, q
sum estimated at between 81, 900 and
$4,000 Sergeant Reed concluded not tc
wait for the Eeturn of his squad but re-
treated in good order for unknown parts
