The sweetest notes among tho human heart.

The sweetest chords, adjusted 10y the angels,

While sounds Of crime, and fear, and dcsola-

On through the world VIC IS, an army march.
With listening cars,
Each longing, signing, for the heavenly music

Each longing, sighiug, for word of comfort,

A word OF love to cheer to- endless journey

For reasons share.
Why shouid they pause to give that love OK
With gentle caro-?
Why should they pause? But still our hearts
With all the gnawing pain
Of hungry love that longs to hear the music,
And longs in vain.

The notes are dumb.
We shrink within ourselves in voiceless sor-

Leaving the words unsaid,
And, aide by side with. those We love the

In silence on We tread.
Thus on we tread, and thus each heart in 81

Its fate fulfils,
Waiting and hoping for tho heavenly music
. Beyond the distant hills.
The only difference of the love IN heaven
From love on cartl, below,
Is: Here, we love and know not how to tell it,
And there we all shall know.

The Crane CrOn.

A correspondent estimates the GRO?
of Catawbas Oh Kelley's Island ut about
225 tons. The wine company have pur-
chased nearly the whole of them at ten
cents per pound. Tho Conccrds have
been at least half shipped for fresh
grapes, mostly to Detroit, netting about
six cents per pound: Delawares, but
few here, shy three to five tons, about
ten cents per pound Ives about the
same quantity, which have been sold to
the wine company at eight cents per
pound; Virginia Seeding, ten cents
per pound Concords are Of a very fine
quality, and there will be fifty tons
picked here. The wine company pay
five cents pon,nl for wine purposes.
IT is usual to throw grape stones as a
waste product, but it now appears that
they can be turned to good account.
sWhep. roasted aud ground they possess
m aroma very much like that of East
India coffee, and the beverage obtained
therefrom is about the same as coffee
in taste, though inferior in quality.

The Greatest Cattle Raiser in the World.

Samuel W. Allen, q native of Ken
lucky, who has resided from infancy in
Texas, and is now citizen of Harris
county, in that State, is the largest
cattle raiser in the world. He is the
owner of the following ranches l.
Ranch Grande-the largest on the con-
tinept-embraces an area of eighty
miles long and forty wide, and lies be-
tween the Colorado and Nevada Rivers,
extending through the three counties
of Matagorda, Lavacca and jackson.
On this one ranch alone Mr..
Allen herds 10000 cattle. 2.
Tho Home Rancho, situated in
Harris county; pastures 10000, and
includes M area of little less than half
that of the Ranch Grande. 3. The San
Bernardo Ranch is in Fort Bend coun.

total of two hundred and fifty thousand
(250, 0O0) head of cattle owned and
handled by Que man, and subsisted
and fattened upon the native
grasses and spontaneous growth of a
comparatively small section Of the
great territory of Texas. Besides this
prodigious number Of cattle, there
are three thousand horses, which
are kept constantly in use
by hertlers and branders, of
whom ut least four hundred are en-
ployed by Mr.. Allen, at good wages.
At a low estimate of ten dollars per
head, the value of Mr. Aliens cattle

horses Mt $50, 900; mnking:a total val

Advice About Guns.
The American Sportsman is trying
hard to teach people how to handle
guns. 1t gives four rules. The sub
stance of the first three rules is, never
handle gun unless you know how :;
always carry gun at half.cock. The
fourth rule we give entirely. "lf you
know of no other way of ascertaining
whether gun is loaded or not than
by putting the muzzle to your mouth
and blowing, CT if you feel inclined to
draw the cap, retire to II s"fe distance.
and ut once blow out your brains If
you have any-before you kill or MAIN
other people by your stupidity and
carelessness.'

INTERESTING PARTICULARS

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 1874. NJ
News reached this city at midnight
that the Pacific Company's steamer
Costa Rica ran OH the rocks at Point
Diablo, about three miles from Fort
Point, outside, and Was wrecked. A
dense fog prevailed at the time, aud
the vessel was running slowly, but
under full head Of steam, when, With
out any warning, she struck with tre-
mendous force, w%rench!ng her tlmbers
from stem to stern, and staving great
hole In her bows, through which the
water rushed In in torrents. An In
spectloh by the pumps showed that the
water was pouring into the hold. At
ter n time the vessels head swung
round toward the mouth OF the Gate,
and In this position she remained.
Boats were lowered with all possible
expedition and order, aud the passen-
gers passed over tho side Of the vessel
and cot into them. The firemen,
stokers and others in tho engine-room
got into a boat with the third officer,
Mr.. Fitzgerald aud 1t was by this
boat that tidlngs OF the fearful dis
aster reached the city. What
happened after this boat put
off, to either the steamer or
other boats, 1t IL impossible to say.
There were two feet Of water In tile
hold at tho time, and tho propeller Is
reported to have been carried away.
Three OF the crew are said to have
been drowned. Captain Lapidge, with
first officers Squircs, and the second
officer, remained on board. together
with most Of the and some Of the
passengers. The boat In which was
the third officer, twenty-three men and
one passenger, was rowed across the
channel, and as 1t 'drew near the other
shore. q light was observed. This
proved to be the light on Fort Point.
This gave Mr.. Fitzgerald his position,
and pulling cautiously along shore, he
reached Meiggs' wharf about midnight
and reported the mishap. lmmedi-
ately OH receipt Of the intelligence,
Captain Waddell, Superintendent Of
the company, chartered the Rescue to
proceed to the steamer. The Rescue
taken round from Washington
street wharf to the company's dock,
took on such appliances as were need
ed, and at l o'clock A. NJ. started. The
tugs Goliah and Neptune also went
to the scene Of the disaster. One OF
these has just returned, and the non
report all the passengers saved. They
SAY the steamer has shifted her posi-
ton, but lies on the rocks tilted over.
There IL a dense fog this morning, but
no sea. 1t Is the opinion Of some that
the vessel may be got of. Others
think it is impossible. The quarter
master, WIN. Harris, was brought to
the city. having sustained serious iniu-
ries. Other particulars soon.
