. 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.

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.

' 03"Tho New York Courier bays, that
leading railroad mm are alarmed at the
prospect that the Administration will lo
cnto tlio overland California mini route so
that its termination this side tho mount
ains will be far to the southward :
"The owners of the 0,0t'0 miles of
road in the Now Kngliiml nnd MidJio
States, mid Maryland and Virginia, nutur
ully feel a deep solicitude ilnit tho national
overland mail to California should t,tart
from a central and easily accessible point
nnd nut from some town situated amid tho
swamps of the Lower Mississippi, five
hundred miles south of Si. 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.''

, The Van or Civilization Bitta anu
Quails. 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.

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. It was a
judicious resolution of a f uller, when, be
ing asked what ho intended to do with his
