he stopped the train, and, as alleged, put

had started again. q loud shrek and q splash was
heard. Lights were at once got out, but the I'M

Letter from Montana.

HELENA, NJ. T., Sept. I'd, 1869.
Editor Cecil Wig In your issue of
Aug. 21st, there appears what purports to
be an extract from the Helena HeraId
which, not giving the extract entire, does
injustice to the gold product of the coun-
try. The article, as you print it, makes it
appear that the entire shipment of gold
from this city, for the three months ending
July 31st, was $705, 936; whereas the az
ticle as it appeared in the Herald gave
that as the shipment of one banking house
During those three months there were three
other banking houses, forty to fifty mer-
camille houses, and hundreds of individuals
constantly shipping the precious stuff
During the three months mentioned, the
entire shipment of gold dust and gold bars
from this city was three millions eight hun
dred thousand dollars-in round numbers
Last Chance Gulch, upon which Helena
is built, alone yields in gold dust about
three hundred thousand dollars per month
and has been turning out at about that rate
for five years.
There are in the Territory 279 miles of
mining bitches, constructed at an aggregate
cost of $49S, 900 The Rock Creek Ditch
is the longest, having capacity of 1900
inches, is thirteen miles long, and cost
$4,000. This creek is in Deer Lodge coun-
ty-a county containing more square miles

one used to looking at the stunted steers
of North East barrens, | have no doubt
the cattle along the road over which he
travels at the rate of forty miles per hour

How TO MAKE PAPER TRAsPARENT-
Artists, architects, land surveyors, and all
who have occasion to make use of tracing
paper in their professional duties will be
glad to know that any paper capable
of the transfer of a drawing i'll ordinary
ink, pencil, OF water colors, and that even
a stout drawing paper, can be made as
transparent as the thin yellowish paper at
present used for tracing purposes. The
liquid used is benzine. If the paper be
damped with pure and fresh distilled ben
zine it at once assumes Il transparency, and
permits Of the tracing being made, and of
ink or water coors being used on its sur
face without any running" The paper
resumes its opacity as the benzine evapor-
ates, and if the drawing is not then com
pletcd, the requisite portion Of the paper

Kisses.
BY EMMA.
CHILDRENs KISSES.


Scattered from among the roses,
Where a budding wealth reposes,
Little dimplcd lips invite;
Springing from the heart deep treasure,
With never-failing measure,
Given with pure delight.
RoGUIsn KISSES.
Muf1lcd footsteps softly tipping
Up behind, and gently slipping
Round you dear familiar arms;
Though warm hearts may touch unbiddcn,
Where you keep your kisses hidden,
Shelter them from rude alarms.
MOTHERS KISSES.
Little urchins full of badness,
Little faces full of sadness,
Claim a mothcr'S tender kiss.
Every little childish sorrow
Binds solacc none can borrow,
In a mothers soft caress.
FRIENDSHIPS KISSES.

BY tender natures for distress.

CUPID's KISSES.
Prompted by some wild emotion
OF the heart that hidden ocean,
Throbbng i'll the human breast;
1t may he Love incense burning
On the lips, or Fancy's yearning,
Like "a bird without 4 nest
SILENT KISSES.
Some strange, sweet chord of kindred feel
ing,
Some nameless yearning softly stealing,
Earth has no dearcr tie than this.
Heart to heart in sacred beating
Lips i'll soul communion meeting,
Does heaven afford a purcr bliss?
PARTING KISSES.
The last, and it may be the dearest,
For hearts in parting seem the nearest,
Closer for the dear farewell"
But oh. the last that old lips never
Give answering touch, the last forever,
Are sadder than the funeral bell.

The transparent calico, on which indies
tructible tracing can be made, was most
valuable invention, and this new discovery
ofthe properties of benzine will prove of
further service to many branches of the
art profession, in allowing the use of stiff
paper where formerly only a slight tissue
could be used.

lation of things Again, habits of subser-
vience induce cowardly attitude of mind.
Very few women have the courage to be
individual. Very few women estimate
their own lives of any value in the fullest
sense of the word. They know we'll enough
that they have some use as wives, mothers,
daughters: but that they can have any
share in the well-being of the world does
not occur to them. Self-development con-
veys to their minds something quite apart
from the duty of wife, mother, or daughter,
while the truth is that self-development
embraces every other duty. Ill, therefore,
does it become those who satirize women
to hinder any efforts made on their behalf
whether educational or social; always re-
membering this, however, that such efforts
are likely to do very little good which tend
to make of women weak limitations of men.

mission entrusted to Mr.. Burlingame has
naturally caused the attention, especially of
the European Powers, to be directed towards
the far East. Treaties, both commercial and
diplomatic, have been concluded with the
Flowery Realm. Austria, too, has now entered
upon. the field, and even the patricians of
Venice are not backward. The prestige of
ancient Venice, whose merchants formerly
traded with the remotest parts of the globe,
may yet be regained. Ships are now being
constructed in Venice for the purpose of
reopening direct trade with China. The
tatives of the Doges, so frequently mentioned
by travellers in these distant lands, may yet
be brought into bold relief.

At last rain has been welcomed alike by
private citizens and by the street commits
sioners. At half past eleven o'clock on Satur-
day night 1t began to fall gently, but steadily,
and all night and almost all yesterday tpersisted
In accomplishing its benevolent mission. It
may not yet have filed the streams that supply
the city with Croton water-that inestimable
blessing-but it has swollen them sufficiently
to prevent further apprehensions of drought
like that which recently afflicted Philadelphia.
The hearts of all housekeepers were yesterday
rejoiced by the absence of dust. Particularly
lately been playing the mischief, binding eyes,
offending nostrils and invading houses with a
worse than any Egyptian plague, the advent of
rain evoked devout thanksgiving. Broad
way and even still dirtier streets have been
more speedily and more effectually cleansed
by ''the clerk of the weather" than they could
have been by the most conscientious contractor
for a similar job. None will grudge what the
street commissioners may have saved by this
providential dispensation. Let us hope, how
ever, CnaS tney may hot pe teHlpteu W wall lor
repetition of it before sending sprinkling
machines on their regular rounds. The injury
which dust has done to health and furniture
and clothing in New York during the past
week is incalculable. A well governed city,
even if it were built in the Desert of Sahara,
could not have suffered what New York, at the
head of splendid bay and between two
rivers, has lately had to endure from dust.
