KISSING IN THE Cause.-The Charivar
gives the following advice to young gen
tlemen, under the heading, "The Art of
Loving on the Cars - "Permit me to
suggest to You very easy way of kissing
a number of pretty women. You are in a
railroad car, and two or three ladies and
one or two gentlemen enter the same
coupe. At the first tunnel through
which the train passes, as soon as nobody
can see you, you put very loud kiss on
the back Of your hand Nothing is more
curious than to see the faces of your fel-
low travellers as soon as the train emerges
from the tunnel The gentlemen cast fu-
rious glances about them; the ladies then
blush, each of them believing that her
fair neighbor received the kiss, and ig-
norant of the man who gave it to her
Everything goes well; your prospects are
excellent At the second tunnel you
boldly kiss the first lady /; she dares not
cry out, bearing in mind as she does that
her fair companion, to whom happened
the same misfortune, did not say any.
thing. Can she behave more Indignantly
Would she not thereby betray the other
lady to her husband? For the rest, the
second kiss was not as loud as the first
At the third tunnel the same course is
to he pursued toward the other lady, who,
for the same reasons, does not say any
thing. Thus you get kiss at every tun-
mel except the first one"

CULTURE OF OPIUM IN CALIFORNIA
The enormous price of opinm and the i'm
mense. quantity imported into California,
should incite to the production OF the
drug at home The poppy will grow lux
uriantE almost without cultivation, any
where on the Pacific Coast. 1t is well
known that the plant yields its narcotic
iuice of almost uniform strength under
all circumstances of soil and climate capa-
BILE of growing it. There is every reason
to Judge that no part of the world can
produce better quality of opium than
California. We have seen a specimen
produced in the garden of the Insane
Asylum at Stockton, by one of the in
mates whose head was clear on this point
To all appearances it was very superior
article, and the physician of the asylum
informed us that he had proved its activ-
ity. There is not process in hOrticul-
ture or in housewifery more simple than
that of lacerating the capsules and col
lecting the inspissated juice. Children
of six or eight years could do this, and all
that is required in the manufacture of the
article for market, except perhaps the
skillful mingling with stones, eowdung
and the like, which belongs to the art Of
adulterating 1t is marvel that the
Chinese have not turned their attention
to the subject Will not some of our
medical men in rural districts try the ex-
peoiment ?-Pacifc Medical and Surgical

GENERAL Cox.-A gossipy correspon-

Mature designed him for man of mark
Personally he is the finest looking man in
Washington. He is just six feet in hight,
of elegant figure and fine expressive fea-
lures. His hair and eyes are of dark
brown; his cheeks are ruddy with health.
His demeanor is that of country gentle
man; and his dress is faultless in style
and arrangement. Ofice-seekers swarm
around his private apartments, and he re-
ceiyes all kindly, unless satisfied that the
place hunter is utterly unworthy He is
a keen judge of men, and is not likely to
be imposed upon by the specious and pre-
tentious. The intimate friends of Secre.
tary Cox believe that he has by no means
reached the official hight to which his
talents and character entitle him, and pre-
dict for him an elevation beyond which
no man attains in America His family

wife and four children, is in Cincinnati
