How io Select Flour. 1. Look to it color; if it b white, with a slightly yollowiili or straw coloriJ tint, bry it. If it Is very white, with n bluish cist, or wilh l!ai:k specks in it, refuse ii. S. Huamiiio in adhesiveness; wet and knead a littlo of it between your fingers ; if it works soft and sticky, it Is poor, flour made from spring wheat is likely to be aiicLy. 3. Throw a little lump of dry fl.nir against a dry, smooth, perpendicular surf.ico; if it adheres in a lump, tho flour has lifo in it ; if it falls like powd.r, it is bad. 4. Squeeze tome of the flour in your band ; if it rc. tains the shape given it by the pressuie, that, too, is a good ain. Osiciia Timet.

AYe tire iuformcd, by a gentleman on whoso veracity wo can roly, that a young man living in Knox county, this Sta'e, who tarly applied himself lo tho study of the principles of tlrclriciiy, and who had suc ceeded in rendering it u motive power, to take lhe place of steam, hits also discover ed a method of telegraphing without the aid of wires using tho liirlli as a con ductor. I'y this means ho can scud mess ages across rivers, lakes or oceans ; and vessels at sen, by Imvinj a telegraphic ap paratus on board, can telegr:tp!i back, lo tboso on land, by simply letting n wiro from tho instrument touch the water, lie has practically demonstrated tho fact, and npplied fjr a patent for tlio discovery. Verily, this is an ae of scientific wonders. Peoria III.) Statesman.

Louis. They accordingly intend to send forward petitions to the President, requesting that the rnnto of the overland mail shall not bo fixed fur ther south than St. Louis, but nlon a line nt ence central and accessible to nil tusk-rent interests of ilia nation.''

Two remarkable facts are lo bo noted in respect lo the advancement of ilie whites, The first is that tho quail, uu kimn to the Indian, make its firt ap' parance from whence no martnows when the while man plows and plants fields, affording an abundance of delicious food to tho pioneers. The second fact is, the honey bee is not found in iho country wbilo in possession of llio Indians. It keeps just in advance of the advancing woie of civilization. When the Indians j swarms of those new visitors, their wise men sadly acknowledge that it is time for them to abandon iheir pleasant hunting grounds and graves of thoir futhcrt and seek new homes. WaouciiT Iiio.n Caks. There U now nearly complete, in Paterson, N.

The usual forco employed upon this work was 200 men and 13 horses. The work proceeded night .and day, tho men being relieved very eight hours. Imescapaule Consequences of Cheat- ness. .No man rises lo such a height as to become conspicuous, but ho is on ono side censured by undiscerniug malice, which re proaches linn fur his best action:' nnd slanders his apparent and incoutestiblo ex cellencies ; and idolized on the other by ig norant admiration, which exalts his faults and follies into virtues. (XT ilacaulay, it is said, has given up the idea of continuing tho history of Eng land "down to a period within the memory of living men," as ho at first announced, and will conclude it with the death of Queen Anne, tho last of the Stunits. I Jo lias discovered that to bring it down to the former period it would take him (at the rato ho is going on) over ninety years, and Lo does not expect lo live more than twen ty years longer at the longest. A Stunner. A minister was preach ing lo a lurgo congregation in ono of the Southern States. In the gallery sat a col ored girl, with a white child in her arms, which she was dancing up nnd down with commendable efforts to make baby observe the proprif ties of the place. Tho preach er was too much interested in liij subject lo notice the occasional noise of the infant; and at iho right point in his discourse threw himself into an interesting attitude, and looking toward that part of the church where the girl with tho baby in her arms was aitiing, he asked in a low, deep voice : "What is that I hear!" Before ho recovered from the oratorical pause, so as to answer his own question llio colored girl responded, in a mortifying tone of vuic, but loud enough to catch tho ears of tho enliro congregation : "I don no, salt, I spec it is dis here chile ; but, indeed, sab, I has been a doin' all I could to keep him from 'sturbin' vou," Loveliness. h is not your neat dress, your expensive shawl, or your pretty fig. uro that attracts the attention of men of sen?fi.- -They look beyond these. It is tho truo loveliness of your nature that wins nnd continues to retain the affections of tho heart. Young Indies sadly miss it who labor to improvo their outward looks, while I hey bestow not a thought on the mind. Fools may be won by gevvgnws and fash. ionab.V showy dresses; but tho wise and substantial are never caught by such traps. L.ct modesty be your dress. A CmeuFUL Compliment.
