i Is TT FULLERs' EARTH?-It is said
that the dirt now being taken from shaft
No. 2, of the Church Hill tunnel has
something of the quality of soap, being
superior to ordinary soap in removing tar,
grease, &C., from the hands. From this
account, it would seem that the workmen
have struck a deposit of fullers' earth,
which, if such is the fact, will prove quite
valuable, as is well known to all practical
weavers. We hope some competent Judge
will investigate the matter and report. We
believe the fullers' earth now used in this
country is wholly imported from England,
which makes it very costly article.

The obsequies were all that "the boys"
could desire. Such a marvel of funeral
pomp had never been seen in Virginia
City. The plumed hearse, the dirge-
breathing brass bands, the closed marts
of business, the flags dropping at half
mast, the long, plodding procession of
secret societies, military bat.
fire companies, draped engines,
carriages of officials, and citizens in We
hicles and on foot, attracted multitudes
of spectators to the sidewalks, roofs and
windows; and for years afterward the
degree of grandeur attained by any
civic display in Virginia City was deter
mined by comparison with Buck Fan
shaw's funeral.

A Mexican romance shows that the
Mexican woman is willing to assume all
the responsibility belonging to her rights.
Two Mexican ladies of rank, at ball in
Santa Cruz, quarreled regarding a gen
tleman who loved each, we assume, about
equally. A challenge followed, and there
was fight with swords, the end of which
was the disabling Of the sword-arm of
one of the combatants. The wounded
lady, nothing daunted, drew a pistol and
dared the other to come on. The parties
were placed, and the word given, and the
unfortunate one in the previous ARRAY
received ball in her left arm, and was
carried from the field in swoon. Two
hours afterward, the rules of chivalry
holding good, the victor was married to
the object of so many affections, and
bore him blushingly away on horseback

While thou hast life and health;
But die as soon MS possible,
And leave her all thy wealth."

brusquerie, or insult to King William,
mainly provoked the late war. Origin
ally she was Grecian slave, with a face
and form more attractive than Powers
ever chiselled, and was purchased by
Jocosi, celebrated merchant at Con-
stantinople. Having shortly afterward
emigrated to Alexandria, he carried her
along with him, and, though he placed
her at the head of his harem, the rela-
tons between them, we are assured by
her present husband and friends, were
purely platonic. On his death she in
herited his large fortune, and casting
eyes in few months on Benedict, who
was then attached to the French Con-
sulate in Egypt, she welded him, and by
means of it enabled him to obtain that
position which placed it in his power to
play so important a part in European
