A CALIFORNIA INDIANS DINNER Mr.
Chever, who spent many years among the
California Indians, and studied carefully their
history, and manners and customs, gives the
following illustration of their habits, in the
May number of the Naturaltist He saw an
Indian come to the banks of the Feather
River one afternoon. He was hungry, but
had not {, particle of food to eat His first
movement was to start "a fire. He next turned
over some old logs and hunted up some
grubs. He then pulled up some dry reeds,
and plucked a few hairs from his own head
and tied the grubs to the bottom of the reeds,
surrounding them with circle of loops. The
reeds We're then stuck lightly into the mud,
in the shallow water of the stream, and the
Indian squatted beside them motionless
Presently the top of one of them began to
tremble, when the watcher put his thumb
and finger upon it, and tossed fish out up
on the grass; and so he continued to watch
and to catch fish until he had enough for his
dinner; all going to show, that the man who
wants but little here below may get that lit
tie easy-provided he knows as much rs a
California Indian.

One of our well known generals, on his
way west, stopped at the - hotel, and being
wearied with his journey, Immediately re-
tired to his bed, when, on arranging his
pillow, he found daintily embroidered robe
de muU with the name of Olive Logan neatly
worked thereon. Summoning the waiter. he
asked if the lady was still in the house, and
was informed that she had formerly occupied
the room to which the General had been as
signed. With the characteristic humor and
politeness so well becoming him, he directed
the robe to be given to her, and say, with
General IS compliments, ''That he was
not in the habit of sleeping with empty night
gowns

One of the most singular sights growing
out of the war is a continuous line of peach
trees of nearly fifty miles in length, around
Petersburg, and extending toward Richmond.
They are growing from the breast works
thrown up by the rebel army, and are the on
ly legacy left by the poor fellows who We're
on the advance line within one hundred yards
of our forces. Having eaten the fruit while
on picket duty, they cast the seeds aside, and
forty-tive miles of beautiful trees, which
yielded an abundant crop the last year.

An exceedingly queer story concerning
the New York Tribune was related as II fact
by Rev. DR.. Jessup, in argument for the need
Of a medical college in Syria A hakeen. or
native doctor, one day came to him and
asked for a few old newspapers, to which ap-
peal he responded by the gift Of few well
worn copies of the Tribune. fortnight
after, the grateful recipient came back to him
in wonderful spirits and thanked him most
heartily for the gift, inviting him to go and
eat grapes and figs in his vineyard, saying
Il thank you very much for those old journ-
ais. There is nothing like them; they have
worked wonders for my patients" What
was DIR. Jessup's surprise. on entering the
house of the quack, to be invited to look in
to an earthen jar in which these newspapers
had been soaked to pulp in water ami then
in olive oil, quantities Of which astounding
mixture had been swallowed by this fellows
credulous patients, with such amazingly ben
eficial results! The old hakeen gravely
thought it was the magical charm of the
printed letters that did the business!

WONDERFUL SAGACrTY OF A DOG. The
following story, strange rs it may appear, is
vouched tor by several witnesses whose testi-
mony is unimpeachable and may be placed
on a par with the stories told of Dr. Gilman 5
horse which our citizens know to be true
A short time ago female Newfoundland dog
was in the habit of coming to the house of a
lady in this city, who would throw to it pieces
of cold meat which the dog would eat, and,
having satisfied its hunger, 90 away again
SO confirmed did this habit become that at a
certain hour every day the lady would ex-
pect the dog and the animal would put in an
appearance. few days ago, before feeding
her. the lady said to her, ''Why don't you
BRING me one OF your puppies ?'' repeating the
question several times as she stood at the
window, the dog looking her in the face with
an expression of intelligence as if it under
stood every word the lady said. The next
day, to the lady's astonishment, at the usual
hour the dog returned, and lo and behold!
was accompanied by a little puppy The
lady fed both dogs and then took up the pn-
py into the window, when the old dog scamn-
cred off and did not return for three days.
At the end of that time the dog again appeared
when, after feeding it, the lady said, "Next
time bring all your puppies; want to see
them y and yesterday morning sure enou oh
the dog returned accompanied by three Ne1,
toundla,d pups. Several of the ncighhors
saw the whole transaction and declared that
they considered this one Of the most wonder
full proofs of the sagacity of the dog they
have ever known. Where the dog came
from or to whom it belongs is not known, but
we have the name of the lady and also of
those who were eye-Witnesses to the occur

GIRL AND WOMAN.

Eyes like blue violets, cleaning gold hair,
Parted red lips and wondering air,
Fresh rounded checks and innocent brow
OF a child to whom grief is Il stranger now
Sad faded eyes and silvering hair.
Brow marked with many cross and a care
Thin hands whose labor is nearly done,
Calm smile of happiness lost and won.
Closely they sit as the twilight grows,
The opening blossom, the withered rose.
o, say, for which shall pity find
Her life all to come. or hers left behind?
