graphic eulogy about it,:

Upon one side NV the pond was erected

sot on benches, and the fellers covered
with bushes hitched the magic iron to

SINGULAR CAUSE OF DEATHS. Is.
Houston, well known dealer in live stock
died at St. Mary's Hospital San Francis
CO, on Monday last, from an attack of pa.
ralysis produced under the following cir.
cumstances Some time ago he was
driving a drove of cattle in San Joaquin
county, and had bivouacked on the plains
During the night he was awakened from
his sleep by noise of approaching horse
men. A person who was sleeping near
him sprang to his feet, and was instantly
shot down, and, in falling fell across the
the body of the deceased. The drovers,
aroused, rallied to arms, and soon COM
PEELED the attacking party to withdraw.
1t was then discovered that Mr.. Hous-
ton was paralizcd, having become so
through fear Mr. H. was taken to San
Francisco for medical treatment, but he
never rallied, but gradually sunk into the
grave, victim Of fear Call.
TIE CHINESE TALLow-TREE.-Tho
tallow tree of China, which gives rise to
vast trade in the northern par 5 of that
Empire, has been introduced into India.
1t grows with great luxuriance in the
Northwestern Provinces and the Pun
jaub and there are now tens of thou
sands of trees in the Government plants-
tons, from which tons of seed are avail
able for distribution. DR.. Jameson pre-
pared from the seed one hundred pounds
of tallow, and forwarded fifty pounds to
the PuDjaub Railway, in order to have
its properties as a lubricator for railway
machinery tested. For burning, the
tallow is excellent; it gives clear bright
inodorous fame, and is without smoke.
