How CALIFORNIA Was SAVED TO THE
UNIoN.-A California correspondent of the
Chicago Tribune says the news of General A.
Sidney Johnstons death caused great 10Y at
San Francisco. 1t will be remembered that
he was in command at the latter place when
the rebellion broke out, and had connived
with the secessionistS to deliver over the forts
at the entrance of the harbor, and to seize the
$4,000 stand Of arms which the thief FLOYD
had sent there for the purpose. The city was
swarmng with cut-throatS and traitors; John
ston had privately sent forward his resigna-
ton to the war department; the hour for the
contamination of the treachery had almost
arrived, when the unexpected advent of Gen.
Il. V. Sumner frustrated the scheme. He
was put on board the California steamer at sea.
and no intimation of his coming had reached
the coast when he landed. On his arrival he
walked up from the steamer to the headquar-
tiers of the Pacific department, and inquired
tor commander Johnston. Having been shown
into the presence of that individual he an
nounced himself to the astonished traitor as
his successor in command, showing his pa
pers, and demanded immediate possession
In half an hour he had control of both forts,
and run out their guns, double shotted on the
land side. The same evening the 10000
stand of arms at Benicia were secured, and
California was saved. The sagacity that dis
patched General Sumner secretly was credi-
table to the new government. But for that
California would have been lost.

Cost of Building Tasteful Houses.

that 1t does not of necessity cost q shilling
more to build pretty house of certain

lie quotes approYingly from Mr.. Vaux,
who says: 1T is not for ourselves alone,
but for the sake of our children, that we
should love TO build our homes, whether
they be villas, cottages or log houses,
beautifully and well. The young people
are mostly at home, and are exposed to
its influence for good or evil increasingly;
their pliable, susceptible minds take in
its whole expression with the fullest pos
sible force, and with unerring accuracy"
Il am persuaded that great moral re
suits follow from peoples houses being
pretty, as well as healthy. 1t is less re-.
membered than it ought to be, that the
home of the poor man, or well-to-do-man,
onght to be pleasant and inviting as we'll
as healthy. 1t makes an educated man
domestic, it makes him lover of neat
ness and accuracy, it makes him gentle
and amiable, l mean in all but very ex-
IRENE cases, to give him pretty house"

persons in this world who would scout
the idea that there is any necessity or use
for people who are not rich to.nlake any

taste, and to elevate and refine feeling,

the humblest human dwelling. Beauty,

eat, clothes to wear, roof to shelter from

they rode along together, when q lieuten-
ant of the Anatomical Cavalry came dash

"Capting, there's something missing
from the rear-guard."
William assumed a Thoughtful demean-
or, and says he: 1T is a miss fire ?"
No" says the lieutenant agitatedly,
but we miss two"
Not baggage wagons ," says William,
giving such start that Elucid nearly fell
upon his knees. don't tell me two wag-
ons are missing" F- ss

emotion; ''It's not two wagons that We
miss. but two brigadiers." -t'

with his cap. '.How you, alarmed me-

meet that country with Italy. Mount Ce-

half miles long, with canal in the mid
die to let the water leaking from the
rocks run out. Two thousand five hun
dred laborers arenow engaged in digging
holes, by means or a recently invented
machine moving by compressed atmos-
phere. 1t is expected that this tunnel
will be finished in about six years. Its
principal objects. will be to cement more
firmly the ties which exist between France
and Italy, to bring Turin nearer to Paris,
and by making the relations of the two
countries and cities easier and more fire.

currence in all the political and social

This tunnel will abridge the distance
which now separates Paris from Turin by
one half, and once completed, it will take
only seventeen hours to go from one city
to the other.

In the black terror might,
On yon mist-shrouded hill,
Slowly, with foot-step light,
Stealthy, and grim, and still,
lake ghost in winding sheet
Risen at midnight bell,
Over his lonely beat
Marches the sentinel!

All foes without the line,

Memory lies dreaming there.

Eager for morrOw's fray;
Echo Of song and shout,
Curse and carOusal glee,
As in fendish rout
Demons at revelry.
Close, in the gloomy shade
Danger Turks ever nigh
GrRsping his dagger blade
Crouehes tn assassin spy.
