Above the Clouds.

Probably the largest and highest rock
in the known world is the South Dome
Of Yosemite. Standing at the fork of
the upper valley, it rears itself q solid
rock loaf, 5000 feet above the ground.
A more powerful hand than that of a
Titan has cut away the eastern half,
leaving 3 sheer precipice over q mile in
height. No man ever trod the top Of
this dome until last year. Former Wis
itors gazed in wonder at the spikes
driven into the rock by hardy spirits,
who had repeatedly endeavored to
scale it. The shreds Of ropes dangling in
the wind told the story Of their failure.
Last year, however, after thousands of
dollars were spent, several persons
found their way to the top of the dome,
and last summer two sheep were dis
covered browsing on the hitherto in
accessible peak.

An accident most distressing in cir
cumstsnces, and causing the death Of
Mrs. Mary klinkinbeard, of Marshfield.
occurred in Coos county on the 9Th inst
With party of friends the lady had
gone to the ocean beach to view the
storm angered waters, and while stand
ing little distance of her compilations,
near an immense tree trunk stranded
on the, beach nearly washed by the
waves, which, following each other,
came higher and higher, she pointed to
the sands at her feet and repeated:
''Thus far shalt thou come and no fur
Their" The next biilow came with re-
sistless force, lifted the trunk by her
side, dashed It against her and killed
her. Her companions fortunately re-
covered the body. Mrs. Klinkinbeard
was Sc years of age, and was one ofthe
pioneer women of Oregon, having
reached that state in the fall of 1S47.
She was the mother Of thirteen children,
seven Of them being still young.

THE Philadelphia Herald, describing
the sights at the Centennial Exhibition,
says: The Mendelssohn Piano Co. of New
York come to the front with two grand
pianos-one square and upright and one
very elaborate grand upright, made of
ebony and ivory. The latter is greatly
admired, and is finished with consurl-
mate skill. The mechanism Of these
pianos is simple and effective. In the
square the linear bridge in one piece,
strengthened by frame, locking in a
portion Of the bass strings, is applied, by
which all breaks in the tone are obvi.
ated. There is surprise, in the shape
of an upright, four feet in height, which
is particularly adapted to the export
trade, as in price the manufacturers
claim to be able to compete with foreign
dealers, and at the same time furnish a
first-class American instrument. 1t is
declared by competent judges that the
square is the most powerful piano of that
style ever made, on account of its being
doubly oVerstrung; it being grand in
square case.

Or where the Southern seas expand.
He brought the rapture and the dream.
What bears he now? An, vain the thought!
No tale is of the immortal told;
No story by those lips is brought
OF jasper sea or throne of gold
OF the great mystery unrOifd:
Nor how with trembling and amaze
He saw the Elysian realms untold
He saw the eternal glories blaze.
What years have passed since, still boy,
OF eager heart and purpose high,
He thrill ID with unaCcustomed JOY,
Still Eastward bent his curious eye.
Around the sea. above the sky
And hardly dared to think the wind
That sweld the canvas swept him nigh
The visions of his early mind.
He sought them all; earth had no scene

IT is folly to keep old sheep. They
should be turned off to the butcher
while they are in their prime. 1t does
not take half as much to tatten them
then. When they get old and thin, in
order to put them in condition to slaugh-
ter, the whole superstructure must be
rebuilt. Four sets Of lambs are all a
eve should bear; this will bring her to
five years, and this is an age when, with
little extra care, she will round up to a
fine and full carcass. Exceptions may
be made when the breed is scarce, and
the blood is more desirable than any
thing else.
