The ESCAPED SeLDIERs.-The San
Francisco Bulletin, Of May 18th, says T:
'' II is known that many Of the soldiers
who escaped from Fort Point Friday
night arc men of the most desperate
character, robbers and murderers by in
stinct. Il was, therefore, expected that
before they could be recapturcd they
would commit some outrage, and the
fears of the authorities were not I'M
founded. About l o'clock this morning,
as police officer Wagner was patrolling
hi, beat on Brannan street, he came
upon fve or six soldiers. He thought
they were some Of the. deserters, but
did not propose to attempt to arrest any
Of their number without assistance:
Ho was about to pass Thorn, when n OF
the party exclaimed, "That is tho id
scoundrel who arrested me once" and
Immediately attacked him. Before
Wagner had time to draw his pistol he
was Knocked down, and tho entire crowd
commenced beating him and dragging
him about on the ground. When they
thought he was dead, they took his Pis-
toll and rifed his pockets Of a gold
watch and $50 in coin then erammed
his mouth, ears and eyes full of mud,
and threw him into o swamp near the
corner Of Sixth and Brannan streets.
They then fed from the Gene. Fortu-
natsiy, Wagner recovered his conscious
ness, and was found aud taken homo,
terribly bruised and wounded, and
more dead than alive. A physician was
-u -ho .d~;n;.,orad chlnroform
aud at noon to-day no was reported still
under its influence. The extent OF his
injuries is not positively ascortainsd,
but they are very serious in their char
acter.

NATIVE wooD.-California, it is now
definitely ascertaiued, contains II large
quantity of valuable furniture woods.
Her pines cannot be cxcelled for build
ing purposes or for foundation cabinet
work. Her sugar pine is among tho
cleanest aud best lumber known, and
her live oak and manzauita cannot be
excelled as FIRE wood. These are all
reasonably protected by law from vandal
destruction, but still more valuable wood
tho laurel, which for ship building
and house decorations is perhaps the
best that is known auywhere-has not a
line 10 the statute book to protect it.
By and by this laurel will be used for
paperiug walls, and it will be the finest
decoration q house can have. In the
Eastern States handsome woods are cut
10 long thin strips, like paper /; but they
have nothing that will compare in beau
ty and richness to California laurel.
This wood will DO in demand for export
for cabinet purposes as soon as its worth
can be made known. Its possession is
Of great value to that State, and the
forests should be preserved.

FoR ELScroR.-A correspondent of
the Sacramento Record suggests the
name Of Geu. Alfred Redington, of the
California Steam Navigation Company,
as a candidate for elector Of the State
Of California, at large. II it will not
be deemed intrusive, we should like the
privilege of secondiug that nomination.
Whole-souled, generous and honest, he
is loyal in every impulse Of his heart
and every fiber Of his frame. The Union
party of California can nominate no bot
ter, we doubt whether they a find a
stronger man.

FAcrs ABOUT CoLoRs. There are
many little arts which may be used
about colored clothes when washing
them, which tend to, keep . look of new
ness as long al they are worn. These
are some Of them : A spoonful Of OK gall
to a gallon Of water win set the colors
of almost any goods soaked in L provi-
ously to washing. A teacup OF I've in n
pail Of water will improve the color Of
black goods. Nankin should lay in lye
before being washed ; it sets the color.
A strong clean tea Of common hay will
preserve tho color of French linens.
Vinegar in the rinsing water, for pink
or green calicoes, win brighten them.
Soda answers the same purpose for both
purple and blue.

An English lady affected with klepto-
mania has invented a dodge which
would do credit to q professional. She
fastens a silk thread to a small coin,
and when the person BY her side in the
opens her purse to pay the
fare, she presents the coin with the re-
mark that it has been dropped. When
the victim receives it and places tho
purse in her pocket, the silk string is
6rmly attached, and by that the thief
quickly draws the whole affair out.

Children OF the Poor.

What the Saturday RevieW says in the
folio wing paragraph, Of children in London,
must have come into the mind or everybody
who has passed through the back streets and
alleys Of American cities:
"The distribution OF children-as u
other good things in this world-has long
been puzzle TO thoughtful minds. The
Psalmist who counted them among the
greatest earthly blessings, was perplexed AZ
seeing that the ungodly had children at their
desire. Our modern point of view il diff
ferent, but walk through bac Itreat In
London always causes somewhat similar
astonishment. Children seem to abound in
any neighborhood 10 an inverse ratio TO the
means Of supporting them What statistics
might say, we know not; but to a cursory
observer it seems that the poorer the dis
rict the larger the families. Ia the
thoroughly miserable regions, where the
stseets answer the purpose Of nursery, they
swarm, with small girls carrying still smaller
girls in their arms, and dirty little boys Of
precocious impudence. Indeed, some econo-
mists have tried to make out that there is
some necessary connection between tho ex-
treme poverty and the prolific powers Of a
population, and that the maxim Of ''the
more the merrier," is carried ont most com
pletely where it seems the most inappro-
priAte.0

One branch of the Pennsylvania Legislature
has passed bill fixing eight hours az days
work, with q proviso that the pay Of the en-
ployees shall be the same as for ten hours labor.
The other branch, however, refused to concur
in the proviso.
OF course il did. This hide and seek
policy was tried N Ohio, Maryland, Miohi-
gan and several other States. II is by this
time pretty well understood-or at least it
ought to be. II the present Congress
however, refuses to pass the bill now

THE WORLDS COAL SUPPLY.

In May, 1866, during Earl RusseIPs ten
ure of the Foreign Office, he issued eireu-
lar despatch to each British representative
abroad, requesting him to furnish an annual
report Of the coal industry Of the country
to which he was accredited. Statistics Of
great value and Of high importance have
been the result.
The return for 1867 has just been pre-
scented to Parliament. Lord Howard de
Walden reported that in Belgium the num-
Der Of mines is stationery, bat their activity
had conEderably increased during the year.
Nearly 100000 tons Of coal were raised
in the twelve months. The expectation to
France showed an increase OF ii per cent
The exhaustion Of the coal mines had, 40
in England, commanded considerable attsn-
ton, tut the result had removed all dispute
tude. The Hainault collieries alone, were
good for another century and . half Goal
Of good quality is raised in Brazil, and the
supply is limited only by the want of good
means Of transport. From China we learn
that the pre- ious mineral has been discover
ed in Poughow, the chief island of the Pes
cadores. The Chinese we're very anxious
to keep the matter q secret, but, after long
pArley, Consul Swinhoe induced the island
ers to show him where the vein was. So 1t
length, tLey showed him top layer Of lig-
mite, when promised better things If they
could 60 deeper. The elders Of the island
have since presented singularIy worded
petition to their chief, imploring him to keep
G~sy the British from the place.
Very good bituminous coal is found in
Japan; the chief difficulty Of raising it 10
the scarcity Of labor
Prussia is rich in mineral fuel, especially
in very good Goals. Calculations have been
made which promise supply for the next
three thousand years, taking the annual
quantity raised at $4,000 metrical tons.
In Wurtemberg there is m increased &C
tivitY in the working Of the collieries. Ia
Tasmania anthracite and bituminous coal
is distributed over various portions Of the
colony. In Trinidad the coal-bearing rocks
cover an area Of Sls square miles. Ii the
fuel we're attainabIe at small cost, it would
prove highly valuable to the colony. The
coal fields Of the Indian elnpire are almost
entirely concentrated in . band Of deposits
which extends more than half across the
country from near Calcutta towards Bonn
bay. The quality Of the eoL Is, however,
inferior.

Millions blindness Was the result Of over
work and dyspepsia. One of the most emf
neut American divines has for some time
been compelled to forego the pleasure OF
reading, has spent thousands Of dollars in
vain, aud lost years Of time, In consequences
Of getting I'D several hours before day and
studying by artificial light. Multitudes Of
men and women have made their eyes weak
FOR life By the too free use Of eye-sight ia
reading small print and DOM fine sewing.
In view of these things it is well TO observe
the following rules in the use OF the eyes:
AAvoid all Sudden changes between light
and darkness
Never begin to read, or write, or sew, for
several minutes after coming IRON darkness
to bright light.
Never read By twilight, or moonlight, or
on cloudy day.
Never read or sew directly In front OF the
light, or window, or door.
1t Is better 70 have the light fall obliquelY
over the left shoulder.
Never sleep 90 that, on fret awakening,
the eyes shall open on the light Of
window.
Do not use the eye-aight 80 scant that il
requires m effort to discriminate.
Too much light creates glare, aud pains
and confuses the sight. The moment you
are sensible Of IN effort 10 distinguish, that
moment cease, and take walk or ride.
Az the sky ID blue and the earth green, il
would seem that the ceiling should be Of q
blush tinge, and the walls Of soma mellow
tint.
The moment you are instinctivelY
prompted to rub the eyes that moment cease
using them.
II the eyelids are glued together on
waking up, do not forcIbly open them, but
apply the saliva with a 6Lger; 1t Is the
speediest dilutent in the world. Then wash
your eyes and faee in warm wAter.-HaFs

THAr TERRIBLE RIsR.

1t has long been a favOrite argument with
the bOndholders' apologists that the terrible
RISKS they assumed at the time the National
loans were effected should be taken into
consideration by those who insist on the
taxation ofthe bends, or denounce the iniQui-
tous proposition that g,ld alone can llquidats
:heir claims. Although one Of the most
nonssnHical Of objections, strange to say, 1t
has almost passed unehallsnged. or has been
accepted as the strongest argument which
could be presented Ia their behalf. In the
following article we proposeltO examine this
plea and show its utter falSty.
1t is trcs there we're times, when owing
to the cupidity Of orr capisalists, the
jealousy and laundering Of oar generals; the
