effort of the ladies', it is hoped will be properly
appreciated by n who feel an interest in the cause
of education and pride in the schol facilities OF

MORE RATN.-The storm of the present week,
though not of long duration here, was furions
while it lasted, and filed he rivers and sloughs up
Ito the top of their banks with great rapidity OF
course it was not sufficient to cause any particular
damage here abouts; but we see by the down river
papers that il was a storm of the usual "unprece-
denied severity Of all the storms that have oc-
CURED since the construction of the Dutch Fiat
railroad That appears to be great promoter of
furious and unprecedented storms. Is it possible
that railroad up Feather river would have the
same eIectg The surveyors who came down the
North Fork were out during the storms Of the pre-
yions week, but experienced trouble farther
Their than severe wettng down, and no snow.
This was unprecedented in mountain travel, but
they were On the Feather river route. The same
party were pushing their way up the Middle Fork,
during the storms of the present week, and must
have been in the heart of the mountains when the
storm was at its hight We have no report OF their
experience on this latter route, but should It prove
as favorable as that of the North Fork. there
should be an end, at once and forever, to further
taxation or issuance Of Government bonds and
lands in favor Of the Dutch Flat swindle. Weare
in hopes to have report from them next week.
Tie storm appears TO have been quite severe in the
in the northern counties. A telegraph from Shas-
ia announces that the stage going north on the
26th got into Whisky Greek, but was finally saved
through the exertons of several men who happen
ed to be present. Mr.. Craddock, she stage agent
at Shasta, also met with narrow escape while at
tempting to cross slough four miles from Shasta.
His horses we're carried down the stream some 80
yards but he finally succeeded in saving them.
On the evening of the same day, the down stage
was carried away in Clear creek, and three horses,
the coach and mails lost. The driver and one pas
senger a Chnaman, were saved. The driver also
succeeded in saving the express. The Oregon stage
has not arrived for day or two, although We no.
tice the arrival OF the stages from La Porte, and
Quincy, and from Susanville, as usual. The
fact IS 0roville is the only Island of safety in the
State and is bound to be the centre OF creation on
the Pacific.

VOICE From KIMsHEw We take pleasure in
stating that former correspondent from this min
ing locality. who, from some unexplained cause,
discontinued his favors to the RECORD, has again
taken up his pen to hold discourse with its readers
If Hard Times foated before his vision few
months ago, our friend. "A Miner now sees the
first bright streaks of dawnng prosperity upon the
toilers of Kimshew, who have labored on stimula-
ted only by hope. Our correspondent is strong in
the belief that it will eventually rival Cherokee
Flat. Present indications, he says. strengthens
this belief. All who have there commenced tun-
nels and other processes for taking out gold, are
rushing them to rapid completion. Nor is mining
the only resource of the residents of this favored
locality. Experiments made incontestibiy prove
that fax of superior quality can be produced in
the contiguous flats and valleys. Butte county
possesses real elements of greatness and all that is
wanted to develop them is the industry and perse-
verance of her citizens. Her mineral and agricul-
tural resources are inferior to those Of no other
county in the State. And when the "Orove and
Beckwourths Pass road being surveyed, is
completed, and the iron horse snorts through our
boundaries, bearing the products of Nevada to mar
ket, then will the flush times of IS be as far
passed as the steam car surpasses the prairie
schooner" All that is wanted to bring about this
condition of things is for farmers, miners and
mechanics to remain where they are and labor con
tedly. But, our ancient friend lizard Times,
alias "a Miner in Gods name, could you not
conclude your communication about mining with
out making a clash at the fashions and pitching
into the women? Why. your temerity must be
greater than that OF lion tanner. Here's what he
says about those captivating bonnets the charm
ers of life He says they more " resem-
bic calves peeping through Usage brush than they
do angels We warn you, old fellow, to be on
your guard when next you come to town. 1t will
be an interesting sight to see the ladies feel for
the wool on your sealp-and great will be their
establishment when they so feel

IT will be noticed that multiplied by IL makes
w, the sum of the digits of which is 18 aud not
y, but the sum OF the digts l multiplied by
equals g.
multiplied by y equals los, plus plus equals
"a iaS, " 80
And so on TO any extenE1
M. de Maivan discovered another singular
property OF the same number. II the order of
the digits expressing number be changed, and
remainder will be or multiple OF 8, and being
multiple, the sum of its dgts will be 8.
For instance, take the number 81, reverse the
d1gits, and you have IL; subtract IL from 2l, and
the remainder is 0. Take 63, reverse the digits,
and subtract SO from SO, you have 27, multiple
OF g. and 2 plus equals 8. Once more, the
number l3 is the reverse of 81; the difference
between these numbers is Is, or twice 8.
Again, the same property found in two num-
bers thus changed is discovered in the same
numbers raised to any power.
Take Il and IL again. The square of 81 is
AL, and the square of ii is l44; subtract 144
from AL, and the remainder is 297, multiple
OF 8; besd es. the dgts expressing these powers
added together give 9. The cube of 2l is 9l6l,
and that of IL is 1726; their difference is 1888,
also multiple of 8.
The number 81 has also somewhat remarka-
BILE properties: when multiplied by or null
tiple OF up to 27, it gives In the product three
digits exactly similar. From the knowledge of
this The multiplication OF 81 is greatly facili-
tated, the method to be adopted being to multi
ply merely the first cipher of the multiplicand
by the first multiplier it is then unnecessary to
proceed with the multiplication, it being suffi-
Cient to write twice to the right hand the cipher
obtained, so that the same digits will stand in
the unit, tens, and hundreds places.
For instance, take the results of the following

FATALITY or NUNBFRS

from Curious Myths Of The Miodle Ages in Y,ress
6V Roberts Brothers, Of Boston.
Ihe laws governing numbers are so perplex-
ing 70 the uncultiyated mind, aud the results ar
.iVed at oy calculation are so Astonishing, that
IL cannot be matter of surprise if superstition
has attached itself to numbers.
But even to those who are instructed in
and unaccountable, much that only an advanced
mathematician can explain TO his own satislac-
tlon. The neophyte sees the numbers obedIent
TO certain laws; but why they obey these laws
ne cannot understands; and the fact of his not
being able so to do tends TO give to numbers an
atmosphere of mystery which impresses him
with awe.
For instance, the property of the number
discovered, l believe, by w. Green, who died
in 17g4, is inexplicable to any one but mathe-
matician. The property to which l allude is
by s, by 8, etc, 1t will be found that the digits
composing the product, when added together,
give g. Thus;-
