The Sacramento Record says the rea.
son that American Railroad securities
are not now negotiable in Europe, is be-
cause Of "the mad onslaught on railroads
throughout the country" Is it indeed?
We should say it 10 because the interest
on the outstanding bonds have not been
paid, and but little likelihood Of pay
ments being soon il ever resumed. The
principal causes Of this default have
been stealing and roguery Of the very
class of operators of whom the Sacra-
mento Record is the sworn defender. II
it had not been for Credit Mobelier, Con-
tract and Finance Companies, and other
swindling rings Of like character, which
0obblsd no large share Of the proceeds,
there would have been no occasion for
default. There would have been money
enough to pay sll legitimate demands.
But now that many Of these undertakings
are insolvent, then the very fellows who
rocketed the money lay the cause of the
deficiency at the doors of those who have
attempted to expose these frauds, rather
than on their own rsscality. These fell
lows rival Boss Shepherd and Vasquez in
cool impudence.

a TELLING REPLY.-1n o small

this city there recently arrived a
man who put up at the hotel, mind
ed his own business, spoke but little,
and paid his bills with regularity.
The quiet dcmeanor of the stran-
ger attracted considerable unfavor-
able comment, which at length
grew into beliof that he was 9 bur-
glar laying plans for future raid
by q well-organized gang of law
breakers. The townspeople at
length held meeting to consider
the case, and the landlord Of the
hotel was appointed q commit

ger and ask his business in town.
Tho landlord took occasion to do
so at meal-tine. The stranger
laid down his knife and fork, and
said: "You see, landlord, 1 was

HORRORS OF THE SOUTH AFRICAN
GOLD DIeG1NGs.-An English emil
grant, writing from Brisbane,
gives sad picture of the suffer
ings of those who went out to the
Palmer gold diggings. "Since the
18th Of March," he says, i have
been very i'll, but now, I am thank
ful to say, am perfectly recover
ed. Since I last wrote I have had
something fearful to undergo and
l am one of the lucky ones to es-
cape as Ihave. Hundreds of poor
fellows have lost their lives, and
what fearful deaths some Of them
have had. Sone died from. starya-
ton, some were drowned, others
were killed by blacks, and hun.
dreds were carried off by dysen-
terry. Even grass and rotten horse
flesh were eagerly devoured.-
There were three others who
started with me. One died, and
the other two are now in hospital,
and it is doubtful whether they
will ever recover. We wero nearly
shipwrecked, and to save the YES
sci we had to smothe- seventy-six
horses among which were three
of mine, worth s75. Anyhow, I
managed to reach the gold field,
and in one day l got "a los worth
of gold and the fever with it. AT:
ter being unable to walk or scarce
ly stand for about ten days, I
started to walk back to the sea-
port-2O0 miles. All the provisions
l had to carry me down were six
pounds Of -four and four ounces of
tea-neither sugar nor anything
else. l counted twenty-three fresh
graves on the road, all Of which
had been made since l went up
about a fortnight before. Some
had been travelling alone, and had
lain down and died; and there the
bodies lay till the next traveller
came along, and if they were not
too much decomposed they were
buried; if too far gone, q few branch
es were thrown over them, and
there they were left. My expedition
cost me sl40, and I got "a los in
return"

The MOTHER IN HEAVEN
When the heart is oppressed
with anxious care, when the world
looks cold and drear. when black
disappointments hang heavy round
our nccls, aud We hunger after
love that seems ever to recede,
whittier do our souls turn for sue
cor? To that mother in heaven
who never failed while here.
Whenyears have passed, and We
are left alone, children gone, some
separated by seas or mountains,
By greater distance Of coldness or
forgetfulncss, whose voice then
comes back to US with the loving
tone we vainly long to hear once
more? The dear mother in hcav-
en-.
Is not the wish wrung from US,
that once again We we're children
to be clasped in that warm en-
brace? Do not the bitter teals
come as we remember how unmind-
ful we were Of the rich mothcriy
blessings while We had them?
Oh! We who still have mothers .
feel for you in your joys, in your
sorrows, remember. however your
heart may change theirs never do;
the mothers heart is the thing
that never grows old. Amid tie
trials that must be our portion in
this world, q good being has sent
to all one b!cssing-on love purcr
than al! others. Happy are those
who have to say: 1t is our mo-

NnG JEwEssEs ARE BEAUTIFUL.
-Chatcaubrand gives a fauciful
but an agreeable reason for the
fact that Jewish women are so
much more handsomer than the
men Of, their nation. He says
Jewesses have escaped the curse
which alighted upon their fathers,
husbands, and sons. Not a Jewess
was to be seen among the crowd
Of priests and rabble who iusulted
the Son Of God, scourged him,
crowned him with thorns, and
subjected him to infamy and the
agony Of the cross. The women
of Judea believed in the Savi"r, and
assisted and soothed him under af-
fiction. A woman Of Bethany
poured on his head precious oint-
ment, which she kept in vase of
alabaster. He raised from the
the dead the son of the widow Of
Main, and Martha's brother Laza-
rus. He cured Sinon's mother-in-
law, and the woman who touched
the hem OF his garment. 10 the
Samaritan woman he was a spring
of living water, and q compassion
ate Judge to the woman in adul-
terry. The daughters Of Jerusalem
wept over him, the holy women
accompanied him TO Calvary,
brought him balm aud spices, and
weeping sought him in the scpul-.
chre. Woman: why weepest
thou?" His first appearance af-
ter the resurrection was to Mary
Magdalene. He said to her "Ma-
ry." Atthe sound Of his voice Ma
ry Magdalene's eyes were opened,
and she answered, master" The
reflection of some beautiful ray
must have rested on the brows
of the Jewesses. ...!-...

HEARTY SUPPERS.

Eating a hearty meal at the close
Of the day is like giving a labor
! ing man u full days work to do
just as night sets in, although he
has been toiing all day. The
whole body is fatigued when night
sets in, the stomach takes its due
share, and to eat heartily at sup
per and then 90 to bed is giving
all the other portions and tunc-
tions of the body repose, while
the stomach has thrown upon it
four or FIVE hours more Of addi-
tIonal work, after having already
labored four or FIVE hours to dis.
pose ofbreakfast, and still Ion
ger time for dinner. This ten or
twelve hours Of almost incessant
work has nearly exhausted it's
power; it cannot promptly digest
another full meal, but labors at it
for long hours together, like an
exhausted galley-slave on q newly
imposed task.
The result is that by the un-
natural length of time which the
food is kept in the stomach, and
the imperfect manner in which
the exhausted organ manages it,
it becomes more or less acid this
generates wind, this distends the
stomach, this presses up itself
against the more yielding lungs,
confning thcm TO largely dim
inished space ; hcnce eEory breath
taken is insufficient for the wants
Of the system, the blood becomes
foul, black, and thick, refuses to
flow, and the man dies, or in
delirium or fright leaps from a
window or commits suicide.
Let any reader who follows an
inactive life for the most part, try
the experiment for week of eat
ing absolutely nothing after a one
or two o'clock dinner, and see if
sounder sleep and a vigorous ap-
petite for breakfast and a hearty
dinner are not the pleasurable
results, 70 say nothing Of the hap

able tullness, weight, oppression,
or acidity which attends over
eating. The great renovat;ng
and vivacity which a long, deli

both to mind and body, will of
themselves more than compensate
for the certainly short and rather
dubious pleasure of eating a sup
per with no special relish.

may be a trife in itself, but helps
to make up the sum Of human
happiness. But perhaps you can
aot do this; you have q large
family and q limited income, or
are otherwise prevented from

WHEEL VELoc1TIEs.-The only
limit to the number of revolutions
which o wheel may be made to
make in o given time is the tensil
strength of the material of which
the wheel is made, and it's conse-
queRt power to resist centrifugal
forces which tend to render it
asunder. Savart, in his expert
ments on the theory of sound,
made wheels to revolve from one
thousand to two thousand times
per minute; but this has been sur
passed by Foucalt, who invented
an apparatus for measuring the
velocity of light, to which small
wheel with mirror attached,
which might have been made to
revolve six hundred, eight hun
dred, and one thousand times per
second, or sixty thousand times yer
minute. At these velocities the
ordinary amalgam was complete
ly stripped from the glass to which
it was attached, and it was found
necessary to use mirrors either of
glass coated with pure silver or
made entirely Of metal. These
are the most rapid revolutions
thus far obtained, probably, but
there is not the slightest reason
why even this should not be sur
passed. 1t is evident that for such
great velocities cog wheels are
out of the question. Only bands
or strings can be used.

FEMALE TASTE 4 cultivated
taste marks . woman of elegance
and refinement as decidedly as
knowledge Of classical literature
does q gentleman ; and there is no
thing in which female vulgarity
is more clearly shown than in
want Of taste. This is an axiom
that we think viii! not admit of
dispute; but 1t is q question how
far taste is natural, and how
far it may be acquired. A delicate
taste must, to :: certain extent,
depend upon the organization Of
the individual; and it is impossible
for any rules to be laid down which
will impart taste to persons entire
ly devoid Of it. But this is very
seldom the case with women, as
it IS one OF the few points in which
women naturally excel men. Men
may be, AID probably are, superior
to women in all that requires pro-
found thought and general knowl-
edge; but in the arrangement Of a
house, ard the introduction Of Or
namental furniture and articles of
bijouter!e, there can De 10 doubt
OF the mate superiority Of wo-
men. Every one must have re-
marked the difference in the fur
uishing of bachelors house and

Golden leaves!
Drifting like the surbesms fair
On the silent waves ofair
So radi2ntly by.
Crimson leaves!
Dropping like the suns last rays
At the close Of autumn days,
Upon the western hill.
Yellow leaves!
Whirling by on every blast
That plays requiem for the past
In tones that sadly thrill.
