BRIDING AWAY.
We are drifting away, drifting away,
From the door, dead home of the holy past,
Freighted with all that youth had assumed
Of beautiful dreams that could not last;
Drifting, drifting away.
We are drifting away, drifting away,
From the diamond mornings of long age,
When our lives were so pure as the similes snow,
And our related mother loved us so;
Drifting, drifting away!
We are drifting away, drifting away,
From the purple moons and the mystic moons,
From the fragrant breath of the blushing June,
From the last low notes of the old love tuner;
Drifting, drifting away!
We are drifting away, drifting away,
Like a helpless bank the wind before,
Drifting away to that ebolo-shore,
Where the loved and lost have gone on before;
Drifting, drifting away!
Private Life of the Crown Princess.
The Cross Gazette takes the following account of the life of her Royal Highness at Hamburg, from a private letter:
"Our Crown Princess has now been here for four weeks. Her sister, the Princess Alice, of Darmstadt, often comes with her children to visit her At such times, the sight of the family excursions from the old castle is very pleasant, as there are then eleven children together, and they are all very lively. Several of them lately rode out on donkeys, and two pushed a chaise from behind which was drawn by two small horses, and in which some of the children were also seated. The Crown

"Our Crown Princess has now been here for four weeks. Her sister, the Princess Alice, of Darmstadt, often comes with her children to visit her At such times, the sight of the family excursions from the old castle is very pleasant, as there are then eleven children together, and they are all very lively Several of them lately rode out on donkeys, and two pushed a chaise from behind which was drawn by two small horses, and in which some of the children were also seated. The Crown Princess is exceedingly simple in her tastes and manners. She herself carriess refreshments in a basket to the Lazareth. She has had the beds covered with white sheets and coverlets, and neat curtains put up By her order flowers are placed in the rooms, and a concert was given by the band of the Kurhaus, on which occasion the wounded were carried in their beds into the court of the barracks.
She has caused several old servants of the old English Marchioness to be summoned to visit her She also visited the wounded Major S. and the Landrath, to the latter of whom she intrusted presents for the male and female attendants on the wounded, with whom she conversed in a very friendly manner Her youngest son is very like his handsome old grandfather the King; it is always a pleasure to see him, he is such a splendid child.The Crown Princess, beyond all doubt, possesses a great deal of energy, and fond of simplicity and good order The Fire Guard here desired to place a guard of honor at the castle, but she refused the offer with thanks She arrived with her children in a carriage No one recognized or saluted her; a splendid entrance had been expected, and she was past She generally has one of her children on her lap when she drives out It is no wonder she has gained all hearts, especially those of the mothers' She has also had an open hand for the inhabitants of Strasbourg in their need; many of them who had fled are now returning home.
HOW TO HAVE A LOVING WIFE.-A correspondent sends the following to the Phrenological Journal:
If you would have a loving wife, be as gentle in your words after as before marriage; treat her quite as tenderly when a matron as a maid; don't make her maid in all works, and ask her why she looks less tidy and neat than when "you first know her;" don't buy cheap, tough beet, and scold her because it does not come on the table "porter-house," don't grumble about squalling babies if

If you would have a loving wife, be as gentle in your words after as before marriage; treat her quite as tenderly when a matron as a mine; don’t make her maid in all works, and ask her why she looks less tidy and neat than when “you first know her!” don’t buy cheap, tough beet, and scold her because it does not come on the table “porter-house,” don’t grumble about squalling babies, if you can’t keep up a nursery, and remember that the baby may take after his papa, in his disposition; don’t smoke and chew tobacco, thus shatter your nerves and spoil your temper, and make your breath a nuisance, and then complain that your wife declines to kiss you; go home cheerful and joyous to your wife and tell her the good news you have heard, and not silently put on you hat and go out to the club or “lodge,” and let her afterwards learn that you spent the evening at the opera or the fancy ball with Mrs. Dash. Love your wife; be patient; remember that you are not perfect, but try to be; let whiskey, tobacco and vulgar company alone; spend your evenings with your wife, and live a decent Christian life, and your wife will be loving and true—if you don’t marry a thoughtless beauty without sense or worth; if you did, who is to blame if you suffer the consequences?
To preserve Grape. — According to the Grape Culture, grapes can be kept perfectly plump, sweet and fresh under ground. They should be gathered as late in the Fall as possible, on a clear day, and laid in a box about eight inches deep, with a layer of grape leaves from the vine at the bottom, then a layer of fruit, then leaves again, until the box is full. Let the lid be nailed tight, and bury deep enough to escape the frost, and in the Spring they will be as fresh as when first planted.

ANAHEIM, CALIFORNIA, DECEMBER 8, 1870.
Important Decision.
The following is a late decision of the Revenue Commissioner, in relation to distillations:
Office of Internal Revenue.
Washington, Nov. 8, 1870.
Sir:—Under the construction herefore given to the excepting clause of Paragraph 5, Section I, Act of April 10, 1869, distillers were limited in purifying their spirits, in the course of original distillation, to the single process of vaporizing and condensing.
Under the construction now given to this clause, distillers will hereafter be allowed to use in said process, and as incidental thereto, certain mechanical agents hereinafter enumerated, the effect of which will be the purification and refining of such spirits, and that alone.
Purifying or refining spirits is under stood to be the freeing of the spirits from extraneous matter, and does not, therefore, admit of the mixing of any material with spirits that remains incorporated therewith, after the manufacture is complete.
The only process of purifying now known to this office as in use, that will be admissable under this ruling, are distillation, leaching, or vaporizing through charcoal, wood shavings, flan net or similar purifiers.
J. W. DOUGLASS,
Acting Commissioner.
German Discoveries in Copper Making.—The London Grocer says:
Southern Pacific Railroad Again.
We find the following on this subject in the San Luis Obispo Standard. We hope the anticipations of the writer may be realized, and that we may soon be gratified by hearing of the commencement of the work on the road:
We noticed in one of our exchanges that the contract had been let to furnish railroad ties for the extension of the Southern Pacific Railroad, from Gilroy, southerly. It begins to look as if the work is about to be pushed ahead, immediately. What route has been selected remains a secret, and we won't know until the building of the road shall have actually commenced. In last week's paper, we spoke of three routes, one through the Pacheco Pass to Merced county; and thence southerly on the west side of Tulare Lake; the other between the Coast range and the Garilan mountains; to the Estrella country; thence southerly on the west side of Tulare Lake The third, and the one that in our opinion has been selected, is that from Gilroy through a pass in the mountains to the Salinas valley, Monterey county; up the Salinas to the boundary line of this county; thence to the Paso Robles Hot Springs; thence through a pass in the Santa Lucia mountains to the Morro; thence through the Osos valley; thence on down the coast to the Arroyo Grande; thence to the Huasna; thence up the Santa Maria river, through San Buenaventura Pass, to the coast; thence to the city of Los Angeles.
GERMAN DISCOVERIES IN COFFEE MAXING.—The London Grocer says: "The increased duty on coffee in the Zolverein has caused the German housekeepers to take into their serious consideration whether no means could be devised for avoiding the augmented lay without submitting to a corresponding deterioration of their favorite beverage. It is now ascertained that in almost all the private houses and public coffee houses the roasted coffee berries are ground in a very ineffectual manner, leaving large course lumps; but that if ground finely, one half the quantity is required to make equally good coffee; and it pounded in a mortar till reduced to an impalpable powder, like flour, as practiced in Turkey and other eastern countries, still less—only two fifths is needed. Further experiments went to show that the result was the same whether the beverage be prepared by simply pouring boiling water over the coffee and letting it stand a short time to draw, like tea, or if the infusion be allowed to boil up once or twice, or the coffee simply filtered. But it was abundantly proved that by the last named mode of proceeding, though the strength of the coffee remained the same the aroma was preserved to a much greater extent than by either of the other methods."
VALUE OF AN EXPLANATION.—A certain king, it is said, sent to another king saying: "Send me a blue pig with a black tail, or else." The other, in high dudgeon at the presumed insult, replied: "I have not got one; and if I had—" On this weighty cause, they went to war for many years. After a satiety of glories and miseries, they finally be thought them that, as their armies and resources were exhausted, and their kingdoms mutually laid waste, it might be well enough to consult about the preliminaries of peace; but before this could be concluded, a diplomatic explanation was first needed of the insulting language which formed the ground of the quarrel. "What could you mean," asked the second king of the first, by saying: "Send me a blue pig with a black tail, or else—' 'Why," said the other, "I meant a blue pig with a black tail, or else some other color." "But,"
SEVEN sins to be accounted for that were left out of the book, viz:
1. Refusing to take your own county paper.
2. Taking a paper and then refusing to pay for it.
3. Not advertising.
4. Getting married and forgetting to hand in the notice along with a dollar 'william' to the printer.
5. Asking newspapers to publish matter that is for your own benefit with out remuneration.
6. Reading copy on a compositor's case.
7. Never paying your subscription until the publisher goes to the trouble
loving wife, be after as before quite as tenderly mine; don't make and ask her why neat than when don't buy cheap, or because it does "porter-house;" qualling babies, if nursery, and may take alteration; don't smoke thus shatter your temper, and make, and then comelines to kiss you; joyous to your good news you silently put on the club or "lodge," learn that you no opera or the ash. Love your labor that you are be; let whiskey, company alone; with your wife,inian life, and your and true—if you can beauty with-you did, who is the consequences?

"'Why, of course, it I had, I should have sent it." An explanation which was entirely satisfactory, and peace was concluded accordingly.

Married Life.
Good counsel from a wife and mother:
"I will try to make myself and all around me agreeable. It will not do to leave a man to himself till he comes to you; to take no pains to attract him, to appear before him with a long face. It is not so difficult as you think, dear child, to behave to a husband so that he shall remain forever a husband. I am an old woman, but you can still do as you like; a word from you at the right time will not fail of its effects. What need have you to play the part of suffering virtual? The tear of a loving girl, says an old book, is like a dewdrop on a rose; but on the cheek of a wife is a drop of poison to her husband. Try to appear cheerful and contented, and your husband will be so; and when you have made him happy you will become so in reality. Nothing flatters a man so much as the happiness of his wife; he is always proud of himself as being the source of it. As soon as you are cheerful you will be lively and alert, and allow no opportunity for speaking an agreeable word to pass. Your education, which gives you an immense advantage, will greatly assist you, and your sensibility will become the noblest that Nature has bestowed on you, when it shows itself in affectionate assiduity, and stamps on every action a soft, kind, tender character, instead of wasting itself in secret repinings."

A Quaker maiden of Indiana, who had reached the age of sixty accepted a matrimonial offer from a man who belonged to the Presbyterian church and began to prepare for her wedding. As usual a delegation of Friends waited on her, and remonstrated with her for marrying out of meeting. The bride elect heard the visitors patiently and said: "Look here! I've been waiting Just sixty years for the meeting to marry me, and it the meeting don't want me to marry out of it, why don't the meeting bring along its boys!" The delegation departed in silence.
The Anaheim Gazette — We have received initial number of the Anaheim Gazette, published at Anaheim' a new town in Southern California, not far from Los Angeles. Its typographical appearance is good, and it appears to be ably edited. Its course is independent and G. W.

Medical Properties or Eggs. — The white of an egg has proven of late the most efficacious remedy for burns. Seven or eight applications of this substance soothes pain, and effectually excludes the burn from the air. This simple remedy seems preferable to collodion, or even cotton. Extraordinary stories are told of the healing properties of a new oil which is easily made from the yolks of hen's eggs. The eggs are first boiled hard, and the yolks are then removed, crushed, and placed over a fire, where they are carefully stirred until the whole substance is just on the point of catching fire, when the oil separates and may be poured off. One yolk will yield nearly two teaspoonfuls of oil. It is in general use among the colonists of South Russia as a means of curing cuts, bruises and scratches.

A healthy old Texan says that "from first to last, he has recived by discharges of guns and pistols into his body, 175 shots; had both legs, collar bone, and seven ribs broken, and his skull cracked; is the father of twenty children; raised this year with his own hands 1,100 head of fine cabbage, 4,000 large beets besides other 'craps,' and can now run a good quarter race." We don't dispute the cabbages and beets but it strikes us that this fine old agricultural gentleman has been principally engaged during his long and eventful life, in raising h—ll.
There is a woman in Rochester, N. Y., who is opposed to second marriages. Of course she has a cast-iron husband and knows that he will never die and give her a chance to rope in another one. She argues through a Rochester paper that second marriages ought to be forbidden by law on the ground that as man is immortal, we should legislate for the next world as well as for this—that if it is a crime to have two wives or two husbands here, it will be crime hereafter. All this may be so, and as we have at least ninety per cent. more legislation in this world then we know what to do with, it would probably be well enough to ship some of it to the next.
