A Nevada Paint Mine,

The ledge of terra Sienna discovered
by ii. r. Logan of Empire. near the
Carson river, has been practically test
ed by house and sign painters in Car
son, and all pronounce it equal in all
respects to the burnt SIENNA which sells
in San Francisco at 25 cents per pound.
The ledge was a blanket formation,
and is eight feet in depth. The supply
is inexhaustble, and all that has been
so far found SIMPLY has to be ground
up, mixed with oil, aud it is ready for
use. An Appeal reporter was shown
samples of it. Two coats are sufficient,
and when vanished is of bright
cherry color, and when placed along
side the paint manufactured in San
Francisco an expert cannot tell the diff
ference. When taken from the ground
it resembles red chalk. aud can be made
into paint on the spot by simply mixing
it with saliva. The Indians use it to
paint their faces and manufacture it by
combining it with fish OIL Mr.. Logan
says he can furnish it by the ton, and
coin money at five cents pound.
The dome of the Capitol needs to be
painted, and what would be more ap-
propriaie than to have it covered with
paint taken from Nevada soila

Among tho more noticeable pictures

entitled "l'he Geese of the Capitol"
The lofty cyclopean walls of early Rome
are seen in full, bright mo onlght, their
gray masses and linchen-staincd stones
reared against the darkest Of blue
skies, which reveals but few stars. A

Curious Oriental Dress.

The black garments which have Civ
on distinctive name l(Sdh) to tho
race (the people Of Kaiirstan) appar-
emily differ in various tribes. Those
on the Kabul side wear entire goat
skins with the hair on. The Bushgals,
main tribe dwelling southwest Of
Chitral, wear TUNES with half-sleeves
OF black woven goats hair, reaching
nearly to the knee, gathered in at the
waist with leathern belt, from which
hangs dagger. and with broad red
edging along the bottom. Where the
Kaiirs abut on their Afghan neighbors
they are found to be gradually adopting
cotton clothing. The women. however,
appear to adhere to the traditional
garb, which consists in their case of
sack-like garments of black woven
goats hair, with long, loose sleeves,
reaching 10 the ankles, and gathered
in loosely at the waist. with a colored
cotton scarf bound tightly over the
shoulders. The men shave the whole
OF the head, except circular patch
of three inches in diameter, whence
the hair is then allowed to grow long
and hang down behind, often to the
waist. The Bushgall women wear a
curious head-dress, consisting of sort
of black cap with lappets, and two
horns about foot long made of wood,
wrapped round with black cloth, and
fixed TO the cap. A somewhat similar
fashion prevailed in our Island, in the
reign of the Plantagenels, and, strange
to say, the Chinese pilgrims, Sung Yum
Hwen Thsang, noted a like peculiarly
in vogue in TurKistan, in the sixth and
seventh centuries of our era.

Another Autocrat.

The King of Abyssinia cuts off the

people who Offend him. He puts out
their eyes b. pouring hot tallow into

out the kings order; and no one will
shelter you without his order; in fact,
