The death and burial of stranger at
Tahoe City, on the 9th inst, is thus spoken
Of by a correspondent of the Sacramento
Union:
We tu-ied a man here yesterday who died
Thursday morning, Octo Der Sth. He was
stranger here, and only lived few hours
after his arrival. All we were able to learn
is that his name was Thomas II. Hardlev,
and his home was Hannibal (Mo.), where
his friends now reside. He left home las,
April and came overland to California. |
should think he was about thirty years Of
age.

UNKINr.-The unkindest cut at the DEM
oc' attic party we have heard of for some
time, was perpetrated in New jersey recent
". 1t appears that the Vireland Democrat,
heretofore strong Democratic paper, ard
one of no small influence, a few DAYS ago
changed its name to the Nineland True
Democrat. hauled down its standing SYM
patty for Seymour and Blair, and raised the
names Of Grant and Colfax. The following
are the reasons given for the change, in alb
stract:
First-They consider the election of Sey-
mour and Blair virtual defeat of the Demo-
cratic party.
Second-They believe that Grant and
Colfax better serve the interest of the Dem
ocratic party than Seymour and Blair.
Third-They were unwilling further TO
continue to furnish free literature to party
majority of whom could not read.

At what Age to Marry.

Most persons marry when the ." fit is
on,' regardless of considerations of
physiological and economical prudence.
No lady should marry while she acts
like a girl and feels like girl The
spirit of rollicking gaiety, and the pas.
sion for society and fun should percepti-
bly, give place to the more sober senti-
ment Of womanly dignity before assum-
ing the responsibilities Of wifehood and
motherhood. Girlish Glove fts'' should
be restrained until the lady has some
consciousness .aof the dignity of wo-
manhood, and until she feels her higher
destinies pressing down and superseding
her girlish proclivities. s1s :,
No young man should marry until he
has sown his wild oats, feels like settling
down to a sober life, and has some place
of his own, in which he can settle down
IN manly independence. But little is re-
quired to vindicate his manhood in this
last respect, since humble home is the
most natural of all homes, and the best
possible home for any family. 4 M
Psychologists tell us that persons
should not marry till the bodily develop
ment is matured and hardened into solid
womanhood and manhood. Moralists
tell us that marriage should be chiefly
governed by a regard fer the physical
and mental welfare of the offspring.
Practical economists tell us that the fam
lily relation should not be incurred unit.
at least an humble home is secured free
from the landlords exactions. d lia

BoiIs---.A Composition,

A boil is generally very small at first
and fellow hardly notices it, but in a
| few days it gets to be the biggest of the
two,and the chap that has it is of very lit
tie account compared with his boil. which
then rhas him. Boils appearmysteri-
ously upon yarious portions of the hui
man body, coming when and where
'they darn please,'' aud often in very
inconvenient places. Sometimes solitary
boil is the sum total of the afaiction, but
frequently there is "rebishin' lot of
'em" to help the first one. Ifa boil comes
anywhere on person, that person al
ways wishesitfad come somwhere else,
although it would puzzle him to say just
where. Some persons call them dam
boils," but such persons are addicted to
profanity-the proper name is boil. If a
chap has boil be generally gets good
deal of sympathy from others-"in a
horn." Whoever asks him what ails
him laughs at him for his pains to an
swer while many unfeeling per-
soLs, make game of him, or of
his misfsrtunes, 1or boil. 1t is fvery
wicked to make sport of persons with
boils; thep cannot help it, and often feel
very badly about it. Physicians don't
give boil patients much satisfaction as
general thing. although young physi.
clans who are just beginning to practice
are fond of trying their lancets upon
them. Boils are said to be "healthy."
and Judging from the way they take hold
and hang on, and. ache, and burn, and
grow, and raise Cain generally, there is
no doubt they are healthy and have good
constitutions. They are generally very
lively and playful at night, and it is
very funny to see chap with good
large one, prospecting around
his couch for a place where his
boil will fit without hurting"
Boils tend to "purify the blood"
strengthen the system, calm the nerves,
restrain profanity, tranquilize the spirits,
improve the temper and beautify the ap-
pearance. They are good things for
married men who spend their evenings
away from home, as they give them an
opportunity to rest their night keys and
get acquainted with their families. 1t is
said that boils save the patient a fit of
sickness" but if the sickness is not the
best to have it must be an ALFRED mean
thing. 1t is also said that person is
better after he, has had them, and there.is
no doubt that one does feel much better
after having got rid of them. Many dis
tinguished persons have enjoyed these
harbingers of health. Job took the first
premium at the county fair for having
more achers under cultivation than any
other man. Shakespeare had them, and
meant boils when he said, "One woe
doth tread upon another's heel, SO fast
they follow" There are great many
remedies for boils, most of which are
well worth trying, because, if they don't
do any good they don't hurt
the boils. If a chap goes down
strket with a boil, every man he meets
viii tell him Of a s..good thing" for it,
among which arc Shoe-makers-wax,
Mrs. Winslow's Syrup, Trix, Spauld-
ing's Glue, Charlotte Russo, Gum Drops,
Water Proof Backing, Night Blooming
Cereus, Chloroform, Kissengen, &C.,
&c.

The time has gone by-if it ever ex-
listed when man was esteemed less
sensiblep or practical" because he ap-
preciated the beauty of flowers, and loved
to have them around him. Eeach year we
are learning more and more of their love-
illness, and showing the evidence of a
better educated taste in the more extend
ed use we make OF boquets and garlands.
A writer says:
There has been of late years marked
increase in thesuse Of flowers for social
purposes. Every dinner party or dane
ing party mnst now be graced with these
!" stars of the EARTH" At large assem-
blies there is always lavish display of
flowers, as if it were designed to -intoxi-
cate the guests with the delicious odors
of innumerable blossoms. If we visit a
lady, flowers must precede our coming /;
if we drive out with her, the odor of
flowers must sweeten the pleasure
Superb presentation baskets and bo-
quets are now seen in almost every
parlor, and are the horticultural com
pliments of gentlemen to ladies. The
favorite flowers are the camelia,
|japonica, the sweet Neapolitan violet,
and the white and tea rose. Although
a large capital is employed in producing
theses the supply is unequal to the de-
mand, and they bring high, even extrav-
agant prices on great occasions. Flow
srs are. Of course, extensively used at
weddings, but according to the florists.
they are employed more literally at fun
erals. Five hundred dollars are not un-
frequently expended in crosses and
wreaths for these solemn occasions.
As weddings and funerals require white
flowers only, they cause these to be more
rare, and of higher price than colored
onos. Some of our churches of late
years. have employed flowers extensive
ly on occasions of religious festivals.

An extraordinary performance re-
Gently took place at Nottingham, Eng.
land, which eclipses the proceeding in
John Aliens dance house. The exhibi-
ton was held on the stage of travelling
theater, in the great market place, and
the announcement ran that "the ran
somed Of the Lord would hold meet
ing, ito be conducted by a converted
thief, sweep, doctor and miller. ]. Birch,
DID,, converted Niger, viii play the
banjo, as host of heavens royal family"
The services themselves appear to have
been exactly what such an announce
ment would lead US to expect. Mr.. Birch,
whose ID. was announced to mean
"Devil Driver" sang hymns TO his banjo,
the crowd joining in the chorus, and
loudly applauding and encoring the per-
former Mr.. Dupe, the etly named
header of the baud, evoked considerable
nerriment in the evening service by
rising once or twice from his knees
while he was praying aloud, to attend to
the stage lights. OF course the multi
tudes whom these strange proceedings
gathered to each service, regarded the
matter as a burlesque, and as another of
the disciples was hawking books amongst
them, that impression would have every
thing to confirm it. But we are informed
that not only was no burlesque intended,
but that the services were undertaken By
a band of really earnest men, who de-
liberately chose these extraordinary
methods Of bringing religion to the
people.
