\ Curious CALIroRNrA SroRy.-
A late issue of the Napa county (CalD

a family residing in tho Napa val
icy have, within a few years past, lost
five of its members by death. by
some curious coincidence n friend re-
siding in San Erancisco, has, ut each

and tho fact has been so remarkable Us
to attract notice, and, in the minds OF
some, create a superstitious dread OF

death, the gentleman paid visit to
the family, and tho lady of the house
said in jocular manner OH first accost-

now bring :" Apparently in good
health at the time, in an hour after
she was Il corpse. Recently he paid
his accustomed annual visit, and II
daughtcr~in-law, who had boon lingcr-
ing with consumption for some time,
died soon after hia arrival. No blame
is attached to him as an instrument
causing those deaths, yet that singu-
lar fatality to the family has been at
tcndant upon his annual visits is most
remarkable. In Italy the supcrsti.
tious people would believe him to pos

ENGLISH OPINION OF AMERICAN MoNIToRs.
MIR. John Boumc, an English engineer.
in a letter which he has caused TO be pub.
lishcd concerning American monitors, saws
The imprcgnablo character Of the monitors,
from the lowncss of their sides and tho i'm :.
mcnsc thickness Of their armor, has long
been widely known but in Europe doubts
of their scaworthiness, based on superficial
consideration, have been persistcntly pro.
pagatcI in the idea. perhaps, that tho pub
lie faith in tho excellence OF the European
type of war vessels woGld thus be maintain.
cd, These illusions, however, the voyage of
the Monaanoch round Cape Horn, and Tho
intended voyage Of tho Muntonon,a,s across
tile Atlantic, will no doubt do something to
dispe, and mcchanicians Mt lcast will not
he slow TO recognize The superior power and
efficacy Of The monitor vessel which, in NO
ton. not one Of our iron clads would be able
to confront for five minutes without the
most imminent risk Of being sent to the
bottom, The officers and crews of tho moni-
tors are. entitled to tho highest praise for
skill and courage with which they have
conducted vessels Of go noble character
over stormy seas into tho hottestifito, and
wc may allbo sure that tho naval men OF
this country will not be slow to appreciate
these qualities, and to give their brother
blue jackets o cordial welcome when they
