ROSE TINTED HoNEY.-A sample of honey
lately contributed by a London firm to the
South Kensington museum has attracted con
siderable attention. Those who have seen the
combs, describe the appearance of the tinted
honey, as seen through the almost pure white

The rose-tinted honey sent TO the Kensing

MENTAL LIFE OF WoMEN.-"Few men," SAYS
a gentleman of intelligence and observation,
"have any idea of the mental life of women, or
how much thinking is done by them. 1t is a
fashion to say that women don't think; but it
is a mistake. My father died when twas twelve
years old, and was brought up with my moth
er and sisters know that they, and the ladies
with whom they associated, were thinkers; and
yet / remember that, even as a child, was
struck with the difference when a gentleman
called. There is difference between your sex
and ours. A man stands by his thought; car
ries it openly like banner which he is bound to
defend; while you, apparently more impulsive,
are in reality much more reticent, and in a Ger.
tain sense do your thinking on the sly. Among
yourselves you think deeply, and express
yourselves with vigOr. In the presence of a man
you conceal your thoughts and reflect his.
Whether it is a fault of your education, or of
your approbatiyeness, l cannot tell, but such
seems TO be the fact"

THE SORROWS OF OTHERs.-There is no
question that habitual cheerfulness is n great
blessing. But when cheerful people are lauded
let it be remembered, as a general thing, that
they are no more to be commended for it than a
person for the possession of pair OF beautiful
eyes. Cheerfulness is matter of health aud
constitution. An invalid or a nervous person.
very sensitive person, easily affected by at
mospheFic and other infuences-canno be uni
tormly cheerful. He may do much towards
endeavoring to be SO, it is true, but it must be a
thing of effort. Many people are cheerful be-
cause they are apathetic. The sorrows of Others,
not being their own, are easy to bear. We do
not wish to decry this social sunshine; but let
us not forget that there are very sweet flowers
that flourish and give us perfume in the shade,
and at intervals.

LIVING BEYOND THEIR MEANS. - Bulwer
says poverty is only an idea in nine cases out of
ten. Some men with $4,000 year suffer more
for want of means than others with $500. The
reason is, the richer man has artificial wants
enough for being dunned for unpaid debts to
kill sensitive man. A man who earns a dollar
day and does not go in debt is the happiest of
the two. Very few people who have never been
rich will believe this; but it is true. There are
thousands and thousands with princely incomes
who never know minutes peace, because they
live beyond their means. There is really more
happiness among the working men in the world
than among those who are called rich.

THE POPE AS A FINANCIER.-ln 1865, France,
Italy, Belgium and Switzerland entered into u
monetary convention for the purpose of equal
iZing the coin currency in circulation, so that
the coin of one country should be current and
circulate in all the others. The pope of Rome
was invited TO join the convention, but declined.
The result of the deliberations of the conyen-
ton (Which was ratified in 1860, stipulated that
the coin should be issued in the form of francs
of different nominations-ive-francs, two
francs, one-franc, and so on. That no one coun-
try should have advantage over the other in
point of the circulation, it was stipulated that
each country should issue six francs for each
head of the population, and no more. The coin
should all be OF the same quality and standard
value. Soon after the contracting parties had
commenced issuing coin according to the terms
agreed upon, ii was discovered that the pope, al
though not party to the contract, was really
carrying out its conditions; and all parties were
pleased. The pope's coin bore the same general
appearance as the Others, only bearing the pope's
Image and superscription." 1t was supposed
that the pope had reconSidered his deter
mination, and, Tor the general convenience
and advantage of his people, had adopted the
rules Of the monetary convention. His money
was welcomed in all these states and circulated
without discount. Things went on smoothly in
this way for several years, when it was discovered
in Switzerland that nearly all the coin in circu-
lation had the popes head on it. Suspicion was
excited, and an investigation followed. 1t was
found that the pope instead of issuing six francs
per head of the population oil the Roman states,
had issued more than sixty francs, and some
statements even doubled this amount; and that
vast sums of this money had been sent for circu-
lation through France, Italy, Belgium, and
Switzerland. Remonstrances followed. The pope
replied that as he was not a party to the conven-
ton, he had a right to issue such coin as he
pleased; that he had subjects Spiritually in all
these countries, and they wanted his money.
Then followed an analysis of the .pope's coin,
when it was discovered that, instead of being Of
standard value, it was twenty per cent below
par. Upon this discovery, Switzerland collected
and sent back to Rome 100000 francs, and
refused TO receive and circulate any more. The
other countries pursued the same course. If
little Switzerland could send back 10000, 900,
Italy, France, and Belgium could certainly swell
the amount to 100,0000O0 of francs. All this
money was put into circulation and received at
the standard value established by the monetary
convention. As a result, the pope realized a
clean profit of 20,000,0O0 francs, or S5,000,000
This beats Wall street speculations all to moth
ing.-Letter from Switzerland.

ORCHILLA.-Orchilla, or Arcbilli, as the Eng
fish call it, is a kind of moss which grows on
bushes and stones near the sea, and is the only
substance from which can be produced a red
dye, one of the most precious colors known TO
the dyer. II IS only a few years since the finest
orchilla dye was obtained, and we presume that
the value of orchilla is also new. 1t is now
worth about $500 per ton in England, whittier it
is shipped in bales and there prepared for use in
the arts. 1t grows so abundantly that one per
son can gather quarter of ton in day, so
that there is a large margin for profit. The area
over which it is formed is, however, small, rea-
lively, and therefore the price is high. The
supply has been obtained in the past from An
COLO, Zanzibar, Ecuador, and the Galapagos
Islands. Its existence in Lower California was
discovered quite lately, and it is abundant along
much of the coast. We are told that it is not
uniform in quality, and that experience and
skill are necessary in the gathering, so that only
the better quality shall be TAKEN IL is said that
a large number of persons will soon be sent to
Lower California under the contract to gather
orchilla. 0rchila has been obtained for CEN
turtles from the shores of the Mediterranean and
used for lilac dye but was not much priced
The supplies gathered on the shores of Africa
and the new world are much superior in quality
and furnish a color that rivals that made from
the cochneal; and it is said, indeed, that the
plantations in which that insect is bred have
been very improbable for several years past in
consequence Of the competition of the orchla
colors. Whether this valuable lichen is found
within the limits of our state we are not in
formed, but the quantity in Lower California is
reported TO be very large; and as that territory
does most of its trading with San Francisco, we
NAV reasonably hope to share the benefits OF the
new discovery. Ahd California.
