SATURDAY, JANUARY 23, 18G9. Amebican Women. Mr. David Mc Rea, a Scottish gentleman, who recently visited this country, ha3 begun to' give, through the Glasgow Herald, his impres sions of the people and its society. Of American women he says : They ore just as gentle and kind, as lovely, 'as agreeable and affectionate as our own. Their loveliness is of a differ ent type pale and more ctherial. A beautiful Canadian or American girl comes nearer the popular itlea of an angel than any being I have ever beheld out of dreamland. Pale features cf exquisite symmetry, a delicately j ure complexion, eyes radiant with intelligence, a light, graceful, often frasile form this is the vision of loveliness that meets the eye in almost every drawiog-ruom. I never saw during all my life before so many fairy forms, which it weald have surprised raa less to see shooting on wings and floating up into the' empyrean. Wc -eulogize the Scotch women, and the Scotchmen in turn praise the women of America. This is on the principle that mortals are never satisfied with what they have. Husbands often see angels in other mens' wives. Theatrical. Mr. and 31 re. F. 31. Bates, assisted by an efficient company, are playing to delighted audiences nightly in Portland, at Oro Fino Theatre'. As an actress Mrs. Rates has few superiors on this or any other coast, and her lady like deportment and affability in social intercourse -has secured to her hosts of warm friends. Fora pleasant, entertain ing evening while visiting Portland, go to Oro Fino Theatre. To make artificial coral for rockwork, take four parts of yellow resin and one part of vermillion and melt them together; dip twigs, cinders, or stones, in this mixture, and it will give them the ap pearance of coral; and are applicable to to rockwork, grotto-, or any fancy work, as a substitute for that costly article. A French gardener has succeeded in giving any flavor ho chooses to fruit oa the tree. Treatment op Small Pox. Dr. W. Field of Wilmington, Delaware : "Hav ing much experience in the cur3 of scarlet fever and small pox, of tho most malignant type, I would thank you, for the sake of humanity, to publish a recipe, which, if carefully and faith fully, carried out, will euro forty-five out of fifty cases without calling on a physi cian": Scailet Fever. For adults, give one taLlospoonful ot brewer's yeast in three tablespoons. ul of sweetened water three times a day, and if the throat is much swollen, gargle with the yeast, and apply to tr e throat as a poultice mixed with Indian meal. Use plenty of catnip tea to keep tne eruption out on tue sKm a few days. :'.aU Pos.-gj-Use tho above dose cf yeast three times a day, and take milk diet through the entire disease. Nearly every such esse can leaving a pock mark. be cured without The Senatorial question in 3Iaino has assumed a new aspect. Percy, member of the House, declared that he threw a blank vote in the caucus unintentionally. This leaves Hamlin with a clear major ity of Republicans in the Legislature. 31orrill's friends now claim that Ham lin has not beeu declared elected by the caucus that they are not bound to sup port him, and intimate that they will not. A movement is on foot to bring on a new man as a compromise candidate. Ilam liu's friends claim that he was clearly the choice of his party and fairly nomi nated and that if any of his party refuses to vote for him he becomes a bolter. A Convention of Women. It ia announced that the women of Germany are to have a convention at Stuttgort during the present month, not to demand the suffrage, but to discuss the best way of managing babies. Delegates will doubtless be admitted from America. Organ opnoNES. There is a company of musicians in Paris called organophones, whose members make imitations of all musical instruments by means of the nose ank throat. The "star" performer imi tates "exactly the bass drum and cymbals, and gets great applause thereby. A 3Iodel Report. The report of the Committee, on Swine, at the Hub bardston (3Iass.) cattle show was as fol lows : No iwine to-day, not even one, We know n t what it means ; We hope that those who slight these shows Will get no pork and beans ! No swine to-day, O, what a pity And five old men on tho Committee. Outspoken. The Portland Commer cial, in a late issue, "goes after" J udge Strong alias "Skookum," a lawyer of some notoriety living near Portland, for attacking the business standing and character of that paper in a recentspeech before the U. S. District Court in the case of the CI. S. vs Randall. Says that the substance of his remarks were as false as his heart has ever been ; compares him to necessity, knowing no law; says that his sobriquet, "Skookum," is an Indian word, applying equally well to carrion, and that more men have read the Com mercial than ever heard. "Skookum' make a sensible speech. The editor adopts the ancient rule of "eye for eye" and ."tooth for too'th," and says if this kind of retaliation prove distasteful to op ponents, "they may- rest assured that we will avoid no consequences." And may the .best man win. ' The river Jordan, in Utah Territory overflowed the lands near its mouth for several years past, and the Desert New proposes that it be dredged and levees made f the mud. We have now the shortest days of the year, the sun rising at" 7:16, and setting at 4:43, making a day of; nine hours and twenty Seven minutes. I Autopsies Upon several small pox cases leads to the belief that the present e'pis demio is what is known as the black small pox- From Ybeka. A dispatch from . Yreka to the authorities at Jacksonville, announces that no person from Jackson Tille will be allowed to enter that town. The gold diggings just discovered at Auckland, New Zealand, are said to be the richest in the world. One reef, 150 by 50,'is estimated to contain $1,000,000 in gold.- " Rich gold discoveries have also been made near Cheefoo, in North China. From the North. News from Cari boo reports the weather mild ; little snow had fallen, and mining operations 73ro carried on successfully. At Seattle, (W. T.), on the night" of Jan. Oth, several houses were broken into by a band of burglars, and clothing and money amounting to SG00, taken. Two of the burglers were arrested next day by parties in search, and most of the stolen property found in their possession. One of the panics gave his name as Daniel tJrown, but is believed by parties from Oregon to be Mike Malohey, who stands charged with being concerned in a murder and robbery at Portland. Ihe otli3r gives his name as George Rarge- man, and is rccognizea as a partner oi one Charles Sutton in a robbery at Inde pendence. Oregon. San Juan Island. Tho Bulletin of the 20th ult. thus describes San Juan Island: It is an irregular shaped island, about fourteen and a half miles long. - The greatest width is six miles, and the area about fifty-four square mile3. Ranges of hills extend along its eastern and western shores; but at the northern end they de cline into gentle slopes. The hisihest peak is about 1,000 feet. Ihe center ot the island is a rolling valley, with many large prairies. There is pasture the year round on a large part of the island, and tracts of arable land a little south of the middle of the island. The land generally is fertile. The meadows have a luxuri ant growth ; some of the hills are green to tho summit, while others are covered with large pine3. There is or was a fine grove of cedars, of some value for the mill purposes. One-third of the island say 12,000 acres is adapted for grain cultivation, and nearly all the remainder except what is covered by timber, is fair pasture. It has several good harbors, the principal one being Port Henry. It has an excellent roadstead in Ontario Bay. It has four lakes with much beau tiful scenery. The rivulets from the lakes have several fine water privileges. The southern end has a vera extensive deposit of liuie stone, of superior quality. Halibut, codfish and salmon frequent its shores, and make ft one of the best fish ing grounds in the vicinity. The Hud son Bay Company at one time put up 2,000 to 3,000 barrels of salmon annually at this place, all bough from Indians. It is said that Seward denies the contro versy is settled, as Lord Stanley refuses to give up the claims of Great Britain. Remarkable Instance of Petri faction. About sixty years ago, 3Ir. Amos Broughton died in Wayne county, in this State, and was buried there. After his death his widow and children moved to Buskirk's Bridge in this eountyl where they now reside. A few days, and the family of the deceased re solved to bring the remains of the father from Wayne county , and have them de posited in a cemetery near their present residence. In furtherance of this pur pose the grave was opened and the coffin exposed, but all ordinary efforts to lift it from its position proved ineffectual. The coffin lid was therefore removed, when it was found that the body was in the most perfect state of petrifaction. It was covered with a dry mold, which, when, removed, revealed a surface almost as white and pure as marble. The body showed not the least particle of decay. Every feature and lineament was pefectly preserved and when stood uprightjt pre sented the appearance of a finely chiseled statue. When 3Ir.Broughton died he weighed about two hundred pounds, while the remains had increased in weight by petrifaction to eight hundred pounds. Before the body was interred at Buskirk's it was seen by the family friends and many others there. ,, It ik) the most per fect and wonderful instance of petrifaction of human remains that has ever come to our knowledge. Troy N. F".) Press. "What makes your cows so cross ?" asked an old lady of her milkman the other day. "Cross, madam? they are the gentlest things in the world." "Well, the milk is always sour," the .matron replied sharply. Was Methuselah; .-Drowned in the Flood. We make the following ex tracts from an article contributed to the Louisville Democrat'. All we know of the origin of our race we learn from Revelation. The chronol ogy used by civilized world is founded ou the dates furnished us in the Bible. Wo reckon the date of tho Hood from the dates found in the sixth chapter of Genesis. We laarn from this chapter that Adam lived before his sen ScthAvaa born 130 years; Seth. lived before his son lTios was born 105 years, Euos lived bc iore his son Cainaan was born 1)0 years; Cainaan lived before his son Mahalaluel was born 70 years ; Mahalaleel lived be fore his son Jared was born G5 years; Jared lived before his son Enoch was born G5 years; Methuselah (087) waj born 65 years; Methuselah lived before his son Lantech was barn 1S7 years; Lameeh lived before his son Noah was born ISO years. N6ah, hence, was born Anno Muudi, 1059. Ia Genesis, 7th chapter, Gth verse, we arc informed thai Noah was uuU years old when the flood of water was on -the earth. Add GOO years (his age) to 1,050, the date of ;be Hood. We ieam from the 27th verse, 5th chapter of Genesis, that "all the days of Methuselah were 969 vears, and ho died." j By reference to tho foregoing table it will be seen that Methuselah was born Anno Mundi GS7; add his age, 809, to 087 j the date of his birth, and wo have 1056, the time "when tho flood of waters was upon the earth." The con clusion is as certain S3 figures that the oldest man died in th&year cf the flood. Was he drowned for his wickedness? The Vagabond Sage. An old man cf very active physiognomy, answering to the name of Jacob Wilmot, was brought before : the police court. His clothes looked as though they might have been bought seconrhand ia his youthful prime, or they had suffered more from the rubs of the world than the proprietor himself.' "What business?" . "None: I'm a traveler." ' "A vagabond, perhaps ?" "You are not far wrong. Travelers and vagabonds are about the same thing. The difference is that the latter travel without money, the former without brains." "Where have you traveled ?" "All over the continent." "For what purpose ?" "Observation." ""What did you observe?" "A little to commend, much to censure, and a great deal to laugh at." "Humph! what do you commend?" "A handsome woman who will stay at home; an eloquent preacher that will preach short sermons, a writer that will not write too much; and a fool that has "ot sense enough to hold his tongue." "What do you censure?" , "A man that marries a girl for her fine clothing; a yTouth who studies medicine while he has the use of his hinds ; and the people who will elect drunkards to office." "What do you laugh at! "I laugh at a man who expects his position to command that respect which his personal qualifications and" qualities do not merit." He was dismissed. ALBANY ADVERTISEMENTS GEO.

Here is one equal to anything we have seen lately. The man was doubtless a very interesting head of a family : "I say, Cap'n," said a little-e3'ed man, as he landed from the steamboat Peytona at Natchez, "I say, Cap'n, this here ain't all." "That's all the baggage you brought on board, sir," replied the Captain. "Well see now, I grant it's all OK according to list four boxes, three chests, two ban-boxes, a' port-manty, two hams one part cut three ropes inyons, and a tea kettle; but you see, Cap'n, I am dubersom. I feel there's something short. Though I've counted 'cm nine times, and never took my eyes oF 'cm while ou board, right, somehow." "Well, stranger, time is up; there is all I know of; so bring your wife and five children out of the cabin, and we are off." "Them's 'em darn it ! them's 'em ! I know'd I'd forgot something." there s something not In the reign of James I., of tobacco hating notoriety, the boys of a school acquired the habit of smoking,- and in dulged it night and day, using the most ingenious expedients. One luckless even ing, when the imps were huddled together round the fire of their dormitory, involv ing each other in vapors of their own creating, lo! in burst the master and stood in awful dignity before them. "How now," quoth the dominie to the first lad, "how dare you be smoking to bacco?" ' "Sir," said the boy, "I am subject to headache, and a pipe takjes off the pain." "And you? and you? and you?" in quired the pedagogue, questioning every boy in his turn. - One had a raging tooth; another a colic; the third a cough; in short they all had something. . "Now, sir," cried the doctor to the last boy, "what disorder do you smoke for !" Alas ! all the excuses were exhausted ; but the interrogated urchin putting down his pipe, after a farewell whiff, and look ing up in his master's face, said in a whining, hypocritical tone, "Sir, I smoke for corns !'f . . The Temperance laws are said to be so rigidly enforced in Maine, now a days, that the officers arrest any one who be comes intoxicated with success, or who is staggered, by the result. ..
