ed from the face by mixing magnesia in

Cultivate the Beautiful.

We plead for the beautiful, even IN
farm life. That Sentiment of Goethe
/" We should do our utmcs. to encourage
the beautiful, for the useful encourages
itself should to certain extent be
the watchword of every farmer. A well
kept barn with neat buildings, and a
ward in which flowers and trees are more
conspicuous than broken crockery and
cast off hoop skirts, is worth more to keep
or to sell than one where no attempt at
identifying the premises has been made
Some years ago, a gentleman of our ac-
quantance purchased farm in the front
yard of which, put out by an former
owner were several ornamental trees that
had attained quite growth, some How
er beds, shrubbery, &c. Almos. one OF
the first acts of the new occupant was to
tear away the feuce, cut down the trees,
and turn the pretty yard into the COM
mon highway. We never pass that place
but we are panied by the thought of the
vandalism that has given barren and
cherries aspect to home might have
rejoiced in refreshing shade and a
wealth of floral beauty.
We counsel more attention to the
beautiful. Plant trees and shrubs and
vines, make your home surroundings at
tractive by the help Of rustic structures
-arbors, seats, gatcways-by the arts
tic forming of land, and judicious dispo-
sition OF of the various objects employ
ed. Don't hope to do it all at once
and don't get discouraged. Do little
this summer and fall, and the remainder
another year. A tree grows slew, but
before you are aware Of it, it has out
grown your expectations. Set out your
trees therefore-for they will not grow
where you want them if you do not put
them there. How the odd hours of one
summer even can be made to improve
and adorn's one home with beauty that
will never fade, but be more and more
delightful with each returning spring

The FRENCH IN CALIFoRNIA.-The
French people in this State reflect strongly
the feeling which now pervades their
country. From every part Of California
from every little mining camp even
Frenchmen are sending words OF resolution
and sympathy, and remitting liberal cash
subscriptions in aid of their wounded con-
rades or of the families of the slain. AL
though small in number compared with
other classes of foreigners, their subscrip-
tions are comparatively large. As footed
up in the Courier de San Francisco of LIST
inst, they are already nearly $4,000 in
gold. The contributors include Republi-
cans, Orleanists and Imperialists, who sink
their differences in view of the danger to
their common country. All the published
appeals are in the name of France; and
an impassioned article in the Courier
expressly declares that the words King,
Emperor, Republic, are nothing in the face
Of Prussian bullets Let history, which is
supreme justice, decide who is to blame
for the present situation The man is
nothing, the dynasty is nothing; France is
everything "a chair is good for bar
ricade, and the throne is nothing but a
chair" 1t is in this spirit that the French
people at home, who appear to have ignor-
ed Napoleon for the present, whatever they
may do with him hereafter, are moving for
the, defense of an imperiled country, Sc
that the French, at home and abroad, seem
to be ofone mind Il Bulletin.

THE NUMBER OF CHINEsE-There are
OO,O00,b00 inhabitants in the Chinese
Empire Some years ago, in order to
convey an idea OF the immensity of tt at
moving mass of barbarians, an ingenious
savan made novel calculation to deter
mine how long procession OF 100000, 900
of people would make marching single file
over the earth's surface He assertained
that the marching colum' would encircle
this planet more than eighteen times
Wonder if Governor Haight and his Dem

The old Game to be Repeated

Calltornians we'll remember the nice lit
tie game played by Latham and Dewney,
by which the former was elected Governor
and the latter Lieutenant Governor, and
then how Latham, having worked his cards
right, had himself elected United States
Senator, which made Downey Governor.
Wen, we are to have a repetition of this
style of putting the cards up in the politi-
cal gambling circle. Haight, during his
term OF office as Governor, has been discreet
IN his appointments, and many new offices
have been created for his especial benefit.
vi course all Of his appontees wear the
Haight collar. They are his chickens,
nd crow and fly as he directs Such is
the price of the corn upon which they are
ted. lie has been judicious in his selec-
ton OF this brood of fowls, and their feath-
ers are trimmed according to the use they
are to be put to. They are of all sizes,
and grades-from Shanghai Ben Washing
ton down to the petit maitre, who is to
| court for him the influence of wives and
daughters over husbands and papas-d la
tfwlnltelsm The whole programme is
complete, and the fight is to be strictly
observed under the rule Of this bill of fare
Haight is to be reelected Governor and
Bill Watt Lieutenant Governor On this
plan the knowing ones agree Then
Haisht is to have "forced" upon him the
United tates Senatorship. Like Caesar,
he Will refuse the crown; and then, like
seymour, weep and accept His scepter
then as Governor will fall to Bill Watt, of
Nevada So is the campaign mapped out
But, alas for Watt, if Republican should
be elected Governor-which will surely be
the case. However. this is the programme
laid out by that Prince of adv coates for
more Cinnamon, Governor H. H. Haight
"a man who has done more for the in
crease of Cinnamon in our midst than any
other one in California He is man for
the times. When he visits where work
ingmen assemble, he wears an old hat and
goes bare handed When he attends his
costly pew in church, he wears yellow kid
gloves and carries a gold cane
When he attends Chinese feasts, he deco
rates his person with bird d-nests and chop
sticks. All, he Is a rare man-a political
roteah vi pIosthe'ls quaity Dut we
hardly think the Latham owney game
will win at this late day of Democratic
aspirations for place and power There are
too many other seekers in that direction
now, who have swallowed such sugar coat
ed pills before. 1t is said that lightning
does not strike twice in the same place;
but if Haight is elected Governor again,
and then elected to the United States Sem
ate, it would be nothing wonderful if light
ming should establish systematic habit of
striking three times in the same place.

FIRES IN THE MOUNTAINS For the past
few weeks fires have been raging in the
mountains throughout the country. destory-

erable damage in other wavs. One fire on
Red Hill, back of McGillivray's saw.mill,
has destroyed a geat quantity of saw-logs
which were cut ready for use in the mill;

How FLY SHORTENED Reals LIFE.

sheriff had arranged to raise his hand as
signal to draw down the black cap, and
afterward to wave his handkerchief for the
cutting of the rope While standing. with
his hat in one hand and his handkerchief
in the other, awaiting the end of the relig-

THE CAUsE-Americans sympathize
with the Germans because they believe
them to be right, and that Napoleon is try
ing to play the bully, not only over Prus-
sia, but over the world as well; he and his
partners tried it 10 Mexico, but his poor
tool, Maximillian, lost his life in the opera
tion. He sustained the rebellion in the
South by his moral support, after the ghost
had been whipped out of it, and if Napol-
con now finds fault with Americans, they
can treat him and France with perfect in
difference, and that is about all the resp ct
he is entitled to from America.-Folsom
