BOy Criminals in California,

A few DAYS since boy of fourteen
was convicted in Sonoma county OF the
crime of presenting fence picket for
a deadly weapon to stage,drYer
and obtaining the treasure-box OF Wells,
Fargo, & Co., through fear of the instru-
ment. That was bad enough, but might
have been condemned and laughed over
at the same time, but for the fact that
the box was found broken open the
morning after the occurrence and the
treasure gone. The presumption is the
boy intended to get the contents OF the
box by presenting the fence picket, and
would have used musket in place OF
the more harmless in strument If he could
have obtained one. The boy is depraved
and needs reformatory discipline. But
the boy stage-robber has been more than
rivaled by the bloody exploits of three
boys in Butte county, aged respectively
seventeen, fourteen and eleven years,
who murdered an old man for his money
with an art that might become all pro
fessors in the business of decoying and
killing. They only practised successful
stratagem upon the old man, who was
cautious, using the youngest boy as the
deceiver, to get him out of his store and
to the place of his sacrifice, but the bar
barous manner of the taking off, the
robbing of the safe, and more than all,
the audacity and GOODNESS of one of the
boys in bearing request to Oroville TO
have reward offered for his own appre-
hcnsion, almost exceeds belief, the re-
port reading more like fiction than
truth. We recount these extraordinary
cases of youthful dcpravity only to re-
mark that they are but the realization
of the prediction often heretofore made
by good observers and well-wishers of
humanity. Our boys are growing up
without legitimate objects in life, are
early acquainted with loafers and vice,
and come up to hold in contempt hon
orable ways of obtaining a living. The
State is full of young "hoodlums " and
sports, and the promise of an abundant
crop OF crime from such fruits is very
evident. California Paper,

Sorrow.

Upon my lips she laid her touch divine,
And merry speech and careless laughter died
She fixed her melancholy eyes on mine,
And would not be denied,
saw the west wind loose its cloudlets white,
In focks careering through the April sky;
I could not sing, though joy was at its height
For she stood silent by.
| watched the lovely evening fade away,
A mist was lightly drawn across the stars,
She broke my quiet dream--I heard her say,
"Behold your prison bars
"Earths gladness shall not satisfy your soul,
This beauty of the earth in which you live;
The browning grace that sanctihes the whole,
That alone can give"
heard, aud shrunk away from her afraid
But still she held me, and would still abide
Youths bounding pulses slackened and obeyed
With slowly ebbing tide.
"Look thou beyond the evening star" she said
beyond the changing splendors of the day
Accept the pain, the WEAKNESS, the dread,
Accept, and bid me stay"
| turned and clasped her close with sudden
strength,
And slowly, sweetly, became aware,
Within my arms Gods angels stood at length
White-robed ana calm and fair.
And now look beyond the evening star.
Beyond the changing splendors of the day,
Knowing the pain He sends more precious fal
More beautiful than they.

back, and can be raised and lowered ut

muscle. which he displays whenever
occasion demands it, No person passing
through a railroad car or meeting him
upon the street would observe any de-
lormitv. but after becoming co2nizant of
his singular case would perceive a
peculiar fit of his coat. He states that
he has often been questioned as to why
he does not place himself ON exhibition.
His inyarjable reply is that he is averse
to public exhibitions. His father being
wealthy farmer, he lad always pre-
fcrred to remain at home.
On one occasion, when about eighteen,
the village boys thought they would have
little sport at " three arms" expense

A Salt Wafer Lesson,

Not long since I spent an evening with
Captain john Strout, of the ship MeSSen-
ger, and among other incidents of his
experience he related the following:
81 once had a man," he said, "who
sailed with me many voyages, and who,
though a thorough seaman, and ordi,
narily quiet and orderly, yet gave me
great deal of trouble. In those days
we used more rum on shipboard than
we do nov, and this man often contrived
to get tipsy: and, when in that condition,
he would invariably try to drown him
self I had borne with him long time
when, as / was one dayin my cabin busy
with my reckoning, heard an unusual
hustle on deck, and upon running up
to learn the cause, I found that it came
from this fellows trying to jump over
board, and his shipmates trying to
prevent him from doing so. The man
was quite tipsy, and I thought / would
not only sober him, but give him Q
lesson which might make an impression.
Accordingly | dispatched one of the
hands for the deep-sea line, This | Sc
cured firmly around the culprit's body
contriving that the lead, weighing about
fifty pounds, should dangle under his
arm. Having made all ready, | pitched
the fellow overheard, and let him sink {
few fathoms. He was soon drawn t.
the surface, aud allowed to squirt ont thu
salt water and to breathe, and then
dumped him again. As we drew him III
the second time he struggled and shouted
for dear lie.
"For mercy's sake don't drown mel!
he cried.
"To be sure 7 will" said I. "Won'
its save you the sin of suicide? You'd bet
ter 90 into the next world by my hand
than by your own"
"And then I dropped him again, thi
time letting him 90 by the run at leas
five fathoms down. He was finally take
on deck, completely exhausted, and en-
tirely sober He sailed with me fou
years after that, the best hand | had
and as for drowning himself, he neve
threatened OF attempted it again"

the same year in which he came to the
Apache country. The reason of hist i'm
prisonment was onAccount of his going
to publish book divulging the secrets
of the great society. He was kept pris-
oner at fort Niagara till September 10Th,
when he was taken in close carriage
and driven via Buffalo N, Y, to Henri
pen, Ill.,, on the Illinois River, and thence
taken in n fiat boat to the Mississippi
river, down which he 1oated to New Or
leans. There he was placed on vessel,
and sailed to the mouth of the Rio Grande
river, and proceeded up that river on
horseback to El Paso, where the Apaches
found him. His captors intended to
give him into the hands Of some jesuit
priests among the Indians, near where
they captured him. His captors passed
down through Mexico and escaped. That
great white chief was the man supposed
to have been murdered by the Masons,
William Morgan, and the subject OF
this story, his son, Cochise.

A BRUTAL CRIME. On Sunday morn
.ng some persons at SuSquehanna Depot,
Penn, found little negro boy, ID
years old, asleep in one of the Company's
buildings. They procured can of kerr
osene and poured it over the boys legs,
and then set fire to it. The wretches
then threw water on the flames. The
little fellow awoke. but, enveloped in
fire. he was bewildered and frightened,
and when the fire reached the flesh his
cries were heartrending. His inhuman
tormentors took their overcoats, making
motions as though they intended to
smother the flames, but in reality only
prolonging the torture. Fearing that
they were going too far in the matter,
they finally eXtinguished the fire, but
not until the boys legs had been roasted
to the bone in several places They
then fed. A physician took charge of
the sufferer, but gives it as his opinion
that the boy cannot recover 1t is said
that there were other persons who wit
messed the burning of the boy, and that
they refuse to expose the perpetrators OF
the deed. The indignation of many OF
the citizens may be imagined. The neg.
70 had just come to the Depot, and
being willing to work, brush and box
of backing was given him, and during
the day he gathered little sum OF
money, and at night sought rest in one
of the Company's buildings.

The Three COachmen.

heard the story long time ago, and
think it good enough to tell, and not
only good, but pointing life lesson
which the wise may heed.
A certain gentlemen advertised for a
coachman, and among the numerous APP
plicants who answered the call he found
three who evinced a sufficient knowledge
of their business to suit him, and from
these three he would select his man.
For the final test he took them to a
point on his premises where a broad
table of rock overlooked deep chasm.
GLOW near" said he, to Sawny
Mclean, "could you drive coach-and.
four to the edge of that precipice without
the danger of going off "
Sawny measured the table with his
eve. and looked down into the deep
chasm undaunted.
81 could drive within foot of it, sir
was his emphatic answer.
He next put the question to John
York.
John looked, and answered, with
prompt assurance
II could drive within ten inches of it
sir."
Next came Barney O'Toole, and he
was asked how near he could drive /
steady doublc-span to the edge of the
precipice with assurance of safety.
"Bedad, veg honor" said Barney, afte
due consideration, "them fellers bat'
me inthirely. l should kape me horse
as far from such Il place as possible!
1t may be needless to add that Barne,
O'Too. was the chosen coachman.

for the taste of phosphorus, and to this
fact may be attributed the origin of
many mysterious fires. They build their
nests of inhammnble materials, and take

they undertake to crafty their appetites
by nibbling the coated ends OF the
matches, which are at once ignited, when

five men with twenty-one two-horse

New BUSINESS. - There is a doctor in
Boston who has gone into the new bust
ness of producing and disposing of vaccine
matter derived from heifer calves inocu-
lated with the cow-pox. The business
has become so extensive and profitable on
his hands that he has given up all prac-
tice of medicine and surgery, and de-
votes himself altogether to furnishing
ounces of this preventive which are
worth pounds of cure. About 300 calves
year have to suffer under his hands
