A Curious Atmosphere.

The other afternoon. although the
weather was very cold, the heavens be-
came obscured by peculiar vapor. which
seemed neither fog nor smoke, nor yet
clouds. Though the sun could be plain
ly seen, it presented precisely the same
appearance as when viewed through
smoked glass. To the southwark this
vapor appeared of an orange hue, while
to the west it was blue. Some OF our
people. looking in that direction, called
out: "Old Mount Davidson has got the
blues!" and really, everything in that
direction had the blues. About four
o'clock the whole mass of vapor moved
east and settled down over the valley
above the Carson River. There it pre-
sented white appearance, hiding all
the valley land and low hills. but allow
ING the peaks of the Como ranee of
mountains to be seen. Next the mass
of vapor separated into several distinct
stratums, and these slowly assembled to
the regions of the upper clouds. While
this was going on there was visible ON
the eastern horizon broad band of deem
blue with above corresponding band
of deep rose red. In all other direc-
tons the heavens were perfectly clear
and of the usual mild azure hue.--Hir-

turned to nurse, and said in low
tone, in response to Baby's eager Whs-
per in my ear, that her tea might be
indefinitely postponed tonight, and,
turning back to my post, found the
grass again devoid of the decoys we had
set. With heightened interest we ar
ranged them again, and this time moth
ing tempted me to lift my eyes from the
window.
FlVe-ten minutes-passed, and then
again came the robin. hopping innocent
~ along. For want OF any other object,
we lazily watched him as he ran over
the grass. now pausing to look from
side to side, as though fearing sight OF
sound. Nearer and nearer he came to
our bits of lace, when suddenly, after
one rapid survey in all directions, with
quick dart he caught them in his beak,
and flew upwards.
Dropping Baby from my lap. ran
hastily out ON the lawn, and, following
his flight, called back: Hurry, Baby!
tell John to bring a ladder. quickr'
With cries OF delight, Baby executed
my commission, and when at last I
paused beneath a large tree. in which
the bird had fonnd a hiding-place, L
was soon jo ned by Baby, nurse, John
and the ladder. We all stood in breath
less expectation, while John plunged
into the upper boughs; and when from
the nest he brought down all the little
lost garments. as well as the lace and
muslin. which had proved such success
full decoys, Baby's delight knew no
bounds. .E.
But we had learnt a lesson, never in
any similar situation to accuse any one
of theft, and, in the beautiful and i'll
genuous unsuspiciousness that has
taken possession of us, are a most de-
ightful prey for any enterp1ising pick
pockets. But, as Baby said the next
morning at breakfast, thereby delight

reason they call it a rob-ing'-N Y.

GOING TO SCHOOL.

There's an army that musters its legions,
And marches to rOll-call each day:
And happy and bleSt are the regions
VIII Oh lie in that army's bright way.
They troop over hiIlock and hollow,
They spring across brook ct and pool,
And gayly and cheerily follow
The summons which bids them to school.
By thousands the army is numbered,
Its soldiers are fresh as the morn;
Not one is by sorrow encountered,
Not one is by care OverbOrne.
at decimalS sometimes they stumble,
And sometimes by verbs are perpleXed:
And the proudest grows saddened and humble(
When u question is passed to the next.
But forgot at the briefest vacation
Are problems and puzzles and prose,
The grief of the stern con- ugatiOn
That late was a fountain of woes;
And the army goes back to its duty
The hour that play-time is done,
Respondent in love and in beauty.
Unmatched meath the light of the sun.
In field and in grove and in street;
Their voices are music to charm me,
So ringing and eager and sweet.
Their checks are as red as cherry,
Their eyes are as pure as the day,
And the sound of their marching is merry,
Wherever they pass on their way.
There are people forever assigning
And saying the world is all wrong;
But somehow their doubts take to flying
AT sight of this wonderful thrOng.
The world nldy be clouded and weary, ...
Of trouble and toll may be full,
But at least there is hope where the CHEEKY
Dear children are going to school.

that the trials which have been made OF
the shot have proved it to be fully equal

immensely popular and secure all the

An average days work for brick
layer is 800 bricks on outside and in
side walls; on facings and angles and
finishing around wood or stone work,
not more than half of this number can
be laid. To find the number of bricks
in a wall, first find the number of square
feet of surface, and then multiply by Z
for a4-inch wall by IA for an S-inch wall,
by 81 for 12-inch wall, and by % for a

The first lot of tacks ever made in
California have been turned out by
works recently erected near Oakland.
The manufacture of this useful article
will now continue at the rate of about a
ton day. Over $50 men are now at
the buildings, and 800 wcrkmen will be
employed when the different manufac-
tories are in full operation. Files and
other hardware will also be made. The
iron used is mined in the State.-SGn

In Scotland there are ninety-nine
factories engaged in the jute industry,
having 1873, O56 spinning spindles; 1856
doubling spindles; 10000 power looms,
and employing 1920 males and 21,841
females, jute pickers. Men receive ST. 5
per week for ffty-six hours work.
Women receive s2.Ss; coarse spinners,
female, receive 1882 per week; loom
weavers, male, are paid 1915. and
female, $3.50 respectively, for fifty-six
hours work.
Twenty billion wooden hoops are
used in the large packing establish

Now a hoop-maker will make $50 hoops
in day of ten hours, twelve or fourteen

hoop-maker will produce 800 eight foot

been done these hoops must be again

can notch them, bevel the ends, or drive
them. A couple of Bostonians have in
