WHAT IT TAKES TO MAKE A GOOD
NEwsPAPER.-We receive at this office
thirteen daily newspapers, and from sixty
to eighty We ;klies, all of which we make it
point to read From this mass of Lab
yrinth Of matter, we carefully select such
articles, items, gems, and tit-bits as COM
prise the miscellany of our columns. Each
editor acts upon this principle, hence each
individual paper is an epitome of the
whole; and in proportion to the extent of
the editors judgment contains the quint-
essence Of the whole. 1t requires more
talent to make good selections than it does
10 write good leaders; hence we imagine
that the popularity of n paper depends to a
great extent on its selections. That editor
is a fool who imagines he can write better
on all subjects than any of his cotcmpora~
ries We all have our specialities-some
peculiar gift in which we may excel many
others 1t is the art of combining these
gifts, and culling their choicest gems,
that makes the readable, eagerly sought
for, splendid journal Such is our idea of
what good paper should be; but bless US,
how few Of Us fill the bill. > California

10 Keep Eggs.

VI. Burnouf recommends IN lie Bclicr,
French journal of agricultural, the fol-
lowing method of preserving eggs: Dis
solve in two thirds of warm olive oil one
third of beeswax, and cover each egg
completely with thin layer of this po-
made with the end of the finger The
egg shell by degrees absorbs the OIL and
each of its pores becomes filled with the
wax, which Theoretically seals them. NJ.
Burnouf afirms that he has eaten eggs
kept two years in this manner. in place
not exposed to too great extremes of
temperature. lie thinks also that germs
may in this manner be preserved for a
long time

4 Dangerous PracIice.

1t is generally believed that Coal Oil
will not explode and such is perhaps the
fact, but the gas that results from heat
ing the oil is explosive and many accidents
have resulted from explosions of this gas.
When the oil in 4 lamp has nearly all
been burned up, leaving the bowl of the
lamp almost empty, the heat yolatilizes
the gas of the oil, and the dangerous prac-
tice consists on blowing into the top Of
the chimney to put out the light. The
fame is driven by the breath down into
the gas and an explosion results. Turn
down the wick and let it 90 out itself.

VOLUME 10.
Two Bad Habits.

There are two weaknesses In our hab-
its which are very common. and which
are very prejudicial to our welfare. The
first is giving away to the ease or indulg
ence of the moment. instead OF doing at
once what ought to be done. This prac-
tice almost diminishes the beneficial eff
fects of our actions, and often lead us to
abstain from action altogether; as, for IN
stance, If at this season of the year there
is CLEAN Of sunshine, of which We feel
We ought to take advantage, but We have
not the resolution to leave at'the moment
a comfortable seat Or an attractive occupa-
ton, we miss the most favorable opportu-
nifty. and, perhaps, at last, Justify our>
selves for remaining in doors OH the
ground that the time for exercise is past.
One evil attendant upon the habit of pro-
crastination is that it produces certain
dissatisfaction of the mind which impedes
and deranges the animal functions, and
tends to prevent the attainment of a high
state of health. \ PERCEPTION of what Is
right. followed by promptness OF execu-
ton, would render the way OF life perfect
" smooth. Children should be told to do
nothing but what is reasonable, but they
should be taught 10 do what they are told
at once The habit will stand them in
stead of all their lives. The second weak
ness is, when we have made good reso-
luton, and have partially failed in execu-
ting it, we are very apt to abandon 1T all
together For instance if 4 person who
has been accustomed to rise at ten re-
solves to rise at six. and after few sues
cessful attempts happens to sleep till sew
en-, there is great danger that he will
relapse into his former habit, or probably
even go beyond it, and lie till noon. 1t is
the Same with resolutions of economy or
temperance, or anything else; five cannot
do all we intended or make one slip, we
are apt to give up entirely. Now, what
we should aim at is, always do the best
we can under existing circumstances: and
then our progress, with the exception of
slight interruptions, would be continual

Rcyerdy .5OhHsOn and Gen.
Hunter.

We have a pretty full report of the
remarks of the Hon. Reverdy johnson
before the military commission engaged in
trying the alleged accomplices Of Booth,
the assassin. and we can see nothing in
what he said justifying the observation of
General Hunter about ''the humbug
chivalry Of the south" Mr.. johnson is
not identified with that chiyalry, and Gen
Hunter utterance was uncalled for, un-
dignified, and want My insolent. If there
is any man in the United States, who as
sumes to be a military man, who is a
greater humbug than Hunter, he has not
been heard of; and Reyerdy johnson is a
lawyer who could afiord to tell that court
that he was competent to form profess

GENEROUS NEaRoEs.-The Negro
Convention which assembled at Sac
remento the other day, represented
a total population OF 3,425 negroes.
If it lacked constituency, the Con-
vention proved by its action that it
did not lack either sympathy or de.
termination. The representatives of
the $500 colored people promised
10000 negro soldiers to aid the Irish
in obtaining the independence of Ire
land-an exhibition of generosity we
have never before seen oqualled. How
10000 is to come out of $500 is not
explained. Moreover, the delegations
to the Convention felt very bad be-
cause the Hungarian Poles have not
secured their independence. Consid.
ering that the Polanders. in their late
rebellion, rebelled against Russia be-
cause the latter Power lad pronounce
ed against human slavery, we consider
the action of the Negro Convention
as positive proof of the capacity of
the negro race to manage the affairs of
the world, as we'll as evidence of its
determined hostility to slavery. The
representatives of $500 whites would
not have promised 10000 soldiers in
aid of certain movement, and might
not have insisted upon controlling all
the affairs of Europe. The action oil
the negro Convention is positive evil
dence Of negro superiority, for its
members have gone farther in the
way ofpromises than white men think
of going. The representatives of $500
constituents not only show their ca.
pacity to regulate the affairs of the
world, but promise 10000 soldiers TO
aid particular cause-that is, twelve
soldiers for each individual of the to.
tai population,-S. f. Call.

JUDICIAL OPINioN.-In delivering a
decision in the United States District
Court, Boston, in 1862, Judge Sprague
said:
1t has been supposed that after the
rebellion is suppressed the Govern
ment will have the rights of conquest
that State and it's inhabitants may be
permanently divested of all political
privileges, and treated as foreign ter-
ritory acquired by arms. This is an
error-a grave and dangerous error.
Under despotic Governments, the
power of municipal confscation may
be unlimited; but under our Governs
ment the right of sovereignty over
any portion of a State is given and
limited by the Constitution, and will
be the same after the war as it was
before. When the United States take
possession of the Rebel District, they
acquire no new title, but merely vim
dicate that which previously existed.

but some essays of surface rock are
equal to anything yet found, consider

Curious REaULATIoNs.-Bre Ma.
jor General Saxton is the Assistant
Commissioner of Freedmen for the
States of South Carolina and i1eorgia.
He has recently issued series of
regulations in relation to the institu-
tion of marriage among the freedmen
and women, which have been jocose-
ly called "Saxton's Eleventh Com.
mandment." We subjoin the tenth
and eleventh as fair speciments of the
whole:
Tenth-A husband living with q
wife, having no children by her, may
be permitted to take previous wife,
provided:
HE have children by such wife
who are still minors.
2-That such wife have no other
husband known to be living.
3-That his present wife assent to
such change of their marriage rela-
tions.
Eleventh-If o former wife utterly
refuse, upon application made by the
husband, TO renew her former mar.
riage relation with him, he may noti.
fly some society or church of the fact
ofsuch refusal, and ask for release
from said wife. IF, after due notice
given by such society or church to
the wife refusing, she fail to show
any moral or legal objection, as pro-
vided for in these regulations, to the
renewal of her former marriage rela-
tions with him, then the society or
church acting in the case shall grant
to the man release from all his obliga.
tions to her as q husband, and for the
support of all his children by her.

PROSPECT OF THE HOP CROP.

The N. Y. World of the I'd inst, says
that a general examination of various
plantations, and extended correspondence
with growers, j~ustifies the statement that,
by the increase of vermin within the past
ten days, the prospect of a sufficient growth
of hops to supply the home market is rem
dered so prccurious as to depend upon
some marked change in the condition OF
the plants, which may occur within the
next two weeks" ans .
This increase in insects illustrated by
the statement that a vine on which there
were calculated to be over 10000 aphides
on the 2Oth, was found on the 29th of
July to be infested with at least $4,000
vermin. This result is determined by
the fact that a single leaf which on the.
goth contained 1916 lice. on the 18th had
on it 1900" EfgE# Et
"Nevcr before have the vines been so
foul SO early in the season, and never be-
fore have the insects covered anything
like so large an area of the hop producing
country. The vines begun already to ex-
hibit the specific effects produced by such
swarns of vermin. Honey.dew is found
everywhere, and may yards have assumed
that dark hue Indicative of b~lack-blight,
and which is the certain precursor of the
destruction of the now half-formcd hop.
1t is noticed that the lice this year are
much more numerous at the head of the
vine than in former years, and the blows
and young hops are now already full of
them.
"1he reports from England continue to
be very favorable for the crop, and it is
by no means an improbablity that a large
growth of hops abroad, with the low prices
which would follow, should lead to an
expectation of hops to this country, not
w~ithstanding the high rate of import du-
ty here.
This certainly would be novel fea-
ture in the trade; but it must be borne
in mind that the domestic consumption of
hops has reached an enormous total, that
the stock on hand is hardly worth men,
tioning, that the crop of this year has at
no time pomised much to exceed the wants
Of American brewers, and that its present
appearance does not warrant any estimate
of a crop exceeding two-thirds. the home re-
quirement."
