CALIFORNIA CURIosTIEs. -- Under the above
caption the St Louis Republican of the 7th in-
slant publishes the following article, which we
commend to the careful perusa Of our farmers
The Calfornians are a queer people in some
respects. The valleys of their State are among
the most fertile and productive in the world and
the monslrosity of California vegetable produc-
tions is proverbal. The biggest trees, the big
gest cabbages, the biggest pumpkins, pears, ap-
pies, peaches and melons they claim grow there,
and that, too with less labor and care than we
bestow on similar products Of half the size. The
cheapness with which they can afford to raise
many staples is shown in the fact that they
sometimes ship wheat to New York and -four to
China. But Calitornians do not raise their own
butter; they send to the States for IA large pro-
portion of it, aud pay sixty cents pound for it.
They do not raise their eggs, but import them
from the Western States at sixty cents dozen.
Native figs, grapes, pears and other delicious
fruits are cheap in the San Francisco markets
but such ordinary fowls as chickens sell for Il
dollar piece. The explanation of the incon-
sistencies is that the California farmers esteem
butter making and poultry raising as too plea
yunish" for California dignity. 1t seems too,
that they do not raise their avn horses on their
own magnificent pastures for San Francisco

horses just arrived by rail from Ohio.

AN Eastern paper has the following in regard
to a " woman who dared - Some time ago n
young country lass had IL lover, as most young
country girls have, and she made up her mind
that she would capture him if such thing were
possible On n certain Sunday evening she
gradually drew out of him a confession that he
" liked her, and before he was hardly aware of
himself promise of marriage. When Henry
returned home he meditated over the matter II
little and wondered how foolish he had been.
With his we-known opposition to hasty mar
riages ard promises, how could he explain his
conduct to his Z" fond parents2' 1t was, indeed
dilemma and one that perplexed him to solve.
Some days after the incident above noted, the
lady, whom we will call Mary, had party, and
Henry was one of the invited guests. In the
evening Mary informed him there was to be Il
wedding there, and showed him the license
Imagine his surprise on seeing his name in the
document. Now Henry you going to fulfill
your engagement" she said, gently stroking
him under the chin. He tried to excuse himself
on the ground of not being ready, and wishing
little time to arrange his worldly affairs but
it was no go. She told him to put on a bold
face, and just finish the affair up at once and be
done with 1t. At this juncture the Squire made
his appearance, and the two were joined to-
gether in matrmony

The world would be Better For 1t.

If men cared less for wealth and fame,
And less for battle fields of glory:
If writ in human hearts name
Seemed better than Il song and story;
If men, instead Of nursing pride
Would learn to hate it and abhOr it;
II more relied ON Love to guide,
The world would be better for IL.
II men dealt less in stocks and lands,
Aud more in bonds and deeds fraternali
If Loves work had more willing hands
To link thi world to the supernal
If men stored up Loves oil and wine,
Aud ON bruised human hearts would pour IL :
If yours" and mine would once combine,
The world would be the better for it.
If more would act the play of Life,
Aud fewer spoil it in rehearsel;
If Bigotry would sheath its knife
Till Good became more universal;
If custom, gray with ages grown,
Had fewer blind men to adore it
If talent shone for Truth alone.
The world would be tho better for 1t.
If men were wise in little things
Affecting less in all their dealings;
If hearts had fewer rusted strings
To isolate their kindly feelings;
If men, when Wrong beats down the Right,
Would strike together and restore il;
If right made might in every fight,
The world be the better for IL.
