Mrs. Isinglass held a brilliant recep tion in the back parlor of her fashion able hotel on Saturday evening last. She received 6.50 a piece from all her regular boarders except young Fastboy, who paid her 60 cents and a silver watch, and stood her off till next Sat urday for the rest of it. Miss Diffenbach, the accomplished and beautiful cantatrice of West Hill, .slapped her old mother over tht head with the dish rag, last Thursday even ing, because the old lady wouldn't let her go down and sing in a Dutch chorus at the masquerade in Bogus Hollow. Miss Diffenbach has the true temper of a lyric artist, and our city will yet be proud of her.

From the Lakeviev Exa the following is gleaned: The citizens of Lakcview say they are saddest when the young men sing. Myriads of ducks can be found at the head of (he lake, and the hunters are after them daily. T. N. Lofton, of Spraguo river, is in town. He says the high water ruined a great deal of hay in his section, there being now about 800 tons of good hay where there should be fully 2,000. The Chinese of Lakcview have dur ing the pist week cr two, amused themselves flying kites, to the unutter able envy of the small boy. Their kites are make octagon shaped, with a strung bow across the top which, in the wind, makes a droning uoiso, and at the same time gives the kite the appearance of a lieetle with a long at teuae. This kite sails to a height con siderably above that supposed to have been reached by Gilderoy's celebrated plaything. Mr. Hall of Santa Barbara, Cal , has a large tract of ground entirely de voted to the culture of tuberoses vio lets, jessamine, bitter orange, and the familiar Provence or cabbage rose. He has completed arrangements for distil ing and will supply the market with perfumery. A writer in the Rural Press says: "Two weeks ago the tube roses were still in perfection a field of 10,000' Surely the breezes off the coast should be 'spicy' with the breath of these flower angels. Too sweet, too overpowering, the scent of a single tuberose in a closed room, but mingled with the salt sea air it might be a de light. Who ever smelled too long the breath of violets? There are banks and banks of them, a purple flush of sweetness on the bosom of the wintry earth." A sensible proposal comes from an Ohio paper to abolish the a. M. and r. M. fooliFhness and count the-hours from 1 to 24; thus calling 1 o'clock r. m. 13 o'clock. For instance the teacher will say "school is dismissed! You will be here at 14 o'clock precisely," i. e. two p. m., the preacher will announce that "services will bo held in this church, beginning at 19 o'clock this evening," and the judge will say "prisoner! You will be taken to the place of execution on Friday, March 4 th between the hour of 10 and 16, then and there dp hung by the neck until you are dead." - The company in Florida that has been experimenting with palmetto for making paper, has met with such gratifying success that it will erect about twenty paper-mills in the State, where palmetto trees grow in abun dance, and where the transportation facilities are good.

The Republican, which is always ready to print the woes and joys of mankind, and is recognized as their organ, has just received a very remark able letter on the subject of the census, from a valued contributor iu Illinois. He writes as follows: "Monticello, Piatt County, 111., Dec 29, 1SS0. Editor National Re publican Dear Sir: Excuse mo for presenting to you a picture of my five babies, born September 18, 1880. I am anxious to learn whether there is any other such case on record or not. From all authority I can gather, there is no other man can show a picture of five; and if I am tho only man that can do so, I think I am entitle- too premium. I am a wounded soldier of tho late war. Yours respectfully, "Michael Hazzard." P. S. Their weight, when born, averaged from three to five pounds; total, nineteen and one-half pounds. On the hack of the picture, which we cannot reproduce, is the following: "Born Sept. 18, 18S0, of Mrs. Aseneth Salitia Hazzanl, wife of -Michael Hazzard. "The wife was born a Little York, Washington County, Ind., May 2, 1844: Michael Hazzard was born at Vienha, Sco'.t County, Ind., Dec. 7, 1841; married Oct. I, 1863. "Michapl Hazzard enlisted in Com pany C. Thirty-eighth Regiment Indi ana Volunteers, Aug. 26, 1861, and was shot through the right shoulder at Perryville, Ky., Oct. 8, 1862. Dis charged Dec. 31, 1862, and moved to Monticello, Piatt County, in 1S66. Both are Americans." While Mr. Hazzanl may be justly entitled to a premium, the facts of his tory show that he lags behind in th race. The prolific powers of some individ uals among mankind are yery extra ordinary. Instances have been found where children, to the number of six, seven, eight, nine, nnd sometimes six teen have been brought forth at one birth. Tlie wife of Emauurl Gago, a laborer n-ar Valladolid, was delivered, the 14th of June, 1700, of five girls. The celebrated Tarsin was brought to bed in the seventh mouth, at Argonte ful, near Paris, 17th of July, 1779, of three boys, each fourteen nnd a half inches long, and of a girl twenty-three inches. They were baptized, but did not live twenty-four hours. In June, 1799, one Maria Ruiz, of Lucena, in Andalusia, was successively delivered of sixteen boys, without any girls. Seven of them were alive on the 16th of August following. In 1535 a Muscovite! peasant named James KyrlolF and his wife wero pre sented to -tho Empress of Russia. This prasaut had been twice married, and was then 70 years of age. His first wife was brouglrt to bed twenty one time-, namely, four times of four children each time, seven times of three, and ten times of two, making in all (ifty-seven children, who were then alive. His second wife, who accom panied him, had been delivered soyen times, once of three children, and six times of twins. Thus he had seventy two children by his two marriages. A great many newspapers, especi ally on this coast, are publishing the law in regard to stopping papers be fore paying up arrearages. Tho fol lowing extract from the autobiography of a retired country editor is interest ing in this connection: "No publisher cr should dun his delinquent subscrib ers through the columns of his paper. Write to them personally, call upon them, send the constable around with tho bill, and make their lives misera ble. When all these mthods hae failed, a shotgun has sometimes been known to prove effectual. But by all means avoid boring your paid-up readers by filling your columns with duns to delinquents. Elko Post. Our delinquent patrons aro notified that, acting on the foregoing valuable hint, re have procured a shotgun and will soon go a-gunning. So be warned in season. A London newspaper has an article about "Native feeling in India." What the nati"o was feeling for is not stated. But if he was anything like our native, he was feeling for the national pocket-book. French and Russian calf boots worth S6.50 for ?5, at the New York Store. rio.-iEor iAn.uiL.ME. In tho Yreka Juarnl of a late date we find some interrsting experience re lated by some Yreka pioneers- at re union. Dr. Hearn was one of the first speakers and spoke of his vogago in a prairie schooner across the plains via. fort Boiso and Idaho. "His com pany after starting found a widow and three children en route, whose husband had been killed by the Indians, and they voted her all tho provisions they had, taking chances on the country in killing game and trusting to luck in striking some camp for relief. At Fort Boise they procured dried salmon skins put up by tho Hudsoit Bay Company's men, which at the Dalles appeared like skippery cheese. On journeying here tho last houso they passed was the Umpqua ferry house, all the country south being a wildernes inhabited only by tho aborigines. Ho and his party first prospected for gold along Yreka creek, with good success. About tho same time, in 1850 and 1851, there were a largo number of miners at Sal mon river, where tho people were des titute, many coming to Yreka with plenty of money to buy a square meal to escape starvation. Tlie pioneers here assisted them and came very near suffering the same fate as the Salmon river miners, which was prevented by the timely arrival of a man named Par kins, with a load of flour from Oregon. The diggings on Yreka Flats were dis covered in April, 1851, when the people began flocking here from Salmon river and Scott river, and a year later a steady immigration poured in from all directions, as the news of rich diggings on Greenhorn, Humbug, Cottonwood, McAdams Creek and other localities was reported. Ail. Wink'er, who was at Salmon river during tho starvation time, ex perienced rr ugh times at Bestville, then the principal mining camp, a place sit uated about threo miles below Sawyer's Bar. He mentions the djviding of a loaf of bread among his party, and thr men coming into camp for something to eat causing them to put their bread in their pockets. After a long sus pense, Winkler lining both hungry and sympathetic, said he would divide, and nil did likewise. One of the party had hidden a loaf of bread, and with this they started for better quarters to ob tain food, but finding ono of their lato visitors lying in the road determined to die, they divided with him again. Tlipy went out hunting nnd killed somo elk, which had mule's lioof-t, and aKo journeyed to tho summit of the divide between Salmon river nnd Orleans Bar where 150 pounds of flour and a lot of dried apples had been left during a snow storm. After n diligent search, these articles were found, nnd mado in to pie?, one man offering S10 for the lust half pie left. At South Fork of Salmon, they found plenty of fine fat salmon, 'which wns eagerly devoured, and in the way of game even a gopher would have been a luxury. L. Husp man was called upon to tell about sell ing a load of apples, which he brought from Oregon, but this wns in 1854, when prices were more roasonablo than in 1853. A. E. Raynes, Jas. Wheeler, Geo. Dnrnnd, Perry Hoyt, Chnrley Prters and others were called upon, wlio coin cided with much that had been related, Peters referring to the prospects of val uable corner lots in the anticipated metropolis, Klamath City, which had been surveyed and established at tho mouth of the Klamath whero largo ships could float in, until shortly after great bars formed so that they could almost walk across the mouth of this great river. The story about the great price paid for salt, was also correctly explained in the following manner. During the starving times of 1852 in Yreka, there was plenty of beef but no flour or groceries. In eating beef straight, salt was grpatly needed, when a man named White, who after wards became a partner with F. J. King, went over to Rogue River Val ley, and procured a ten pound sack, which he sold nt a dollar an ounce, and not at SI 6 an ounce ns has been erron eously reported. Tlie great rush for the new mines during 1852, without nny provision being made for supplies, together with one of the hardest win ters ever exjierienced, caused tho dis tress here, it being necessary to go clear to Sa.em, Ogn., for bacon nnd other nrticlps, or ele to Marvsvill. as all the camps about Shasta wero stock, ed very lightly." f
