Forever and ever the reddening leaves Flat to the sadden grass. Forever and ever the shivering trees Cower and shrink to the shilling breeze That sweeps from the far-off fallen ome, To wither them as it passes. Forever and ever the low gray sky Atrops a'er the sorrowful earth. Forever and ever the steady rain Falls on bare, bleak hill and barren plain, And flashes on roof and window pane, And blinds up the earth. Forever and ever the weary thoughts Are tracing the self-name track. Forever and ever, to and fro. On the old unchanging road they go, Through dreaming and walking, through joy Calling the dead hours back. Forever and ever the tired heart Panders a'er still done. Forever and ever, through cloud and gloom, Tracing the course of the strong life stream And dreary and dull as the broken dream, Forever the rain rains on. A Few Hints about Cooking Game The cooking of game is extremely simple, as a very few kinds require force meat, and the sauce is very easy made. As a general thing, game roasted. The longer game is kept, provided it is not stale, the better. But all kinds of game are better kept in the feathers and skin till just before required for cooking. When the feathers slip off easily, the birds may consider ripe for the spit or oven. Very careful not to tear the skin when taking off the feathers. After even feather and pin-feather has been moved, pass the blaze of a lighted wick. AGENTS: Los Angeles, W. J. BRODRICK. Santa Ana, W. H. SPURGEON. San Francisco, L. P. Fisher.

HEIM GAZETTE ANAHEIM, CALIFORNIA, FEBRUARY 18, 1871. Curriculities of Eating. An old bean, formerly well-known in Washington City, was accustomed to eat but one meal in twenty-four hours; if, after this, he had to go to a party and take a second dinner, he ate nothing at all next day. He died at the age of seventy years. A lady of culture, refinement, and of unusual observation and comparison, became a widow. Reduced from affluence to poverty, with a large family of small children dependent on her manual labor for her daily food, she made a variety of experiments to ascertain what articles could be purchased for the least money; and would, at the same time, 'go fartherest,' by keeping her children longest from crying for something to eat. She soon discovered that when they eat buckwheat cakes and molasses, they were quiet for a longer time than after eating any other kind of food. A distinguished Judge of the United States District Court observed that when he took buckwheat cakes for breakfast, he could sit on the bench the whole day without being uncomfortably hungry; if the cakes were omitted, he felt obliged to take a lunch about noon. Buckwheat cakes are a universal favorite at the winter table, and scientific investigation and analysis have shown that they abound in the heat forming principle, hence nature takes away our appetite for them during the summer. During the Irish famine, when many died of hunger, the poor were often found spending their last shilling for tea, tobacco and spirits. It has often been observed in New York by those Vanderbilt's Start. The New York correspondent of the Boston Journal says: "Every little while the newspapers contain an account of Vanderbilt's beginning. Most of these accounts are apocryphal. His own statement on his first real success is this: He was a young man on Staten Island. He was master of rowing. He was athletic, strong and daring. One night a stranger came to the landing and wanted to cross to Cowanus. The night was dark and stormy—the wind blew gale. Not a boatman could be found who would leave. The landlord said: 'There is nobody who can row you over but Corn—Vanderbilt,' for he was called. 'It was doubtful,' he said: 'whether he would do it.' Vanderbilt was found, and, in answer to the request, replied: 'It's prutty rough, but you'll give me ten dollars, lay down in my boat and not stir, or do just what bid you, I'll try it.' He rowed the man over and back in safety. As soon as he landed at Staten Island the stranger said: 'Young man, how would you like to run an opposition steamboat?' 'Not ing would suit me better,' was the reply: 'Have you pluck enough to obey orders said the stranger.' 'I have,' was the response. 'Suppose I was to tell you run into a steamboat, what would you do?' 'Run into her, by——.' The bain gain was sealed amid the storm the night, on the island, and Vanderbilt entered upon his well-known career as a steamboat man." The "No" Power. The sauce is very easily general thing, game is longer game is kept, protale, the better. Birds game are better kept and skin till just before taking.

During the Irish famine, when many died of hunger, the poor were often found spending their last shilling for tea, tobacco and spirits. It has often been observed in New York, by those connected with charitable institutions, that when money was paid to the poor, they often laid out every cent in tea or coffee instead of procuring the substantial food, such as meal and flour and potatoes. On being reproved for this apparent extravagance and improvidence, the reply, in both cases was identical; their own observation had shown them that a penny's worth of tea, or tobacco, or liquor, would keep off the sense of hunger longer than a penny's worth of anything else. Scientific men express the idea by saying, "tea, like alcohol, retards the metamorphosis of the tissues;" in other words it gives fuel to the flame of life, and thus prevents it from consuming the fat flesh of the body. If a person gets in the habit of taking a lunch between breakfast and dinner, he will very soon find himself faint about the regular luncheon time; but let him be so pressed with important engagements for several days in succession as to take nothing between meals, it will not be long before he can dispense with his lunch altogether. These things seem to show that, to a certain extent, eating often is a mere matter of habit. Whole tribes of Indian hunters and trappers have been known to eat but once in twenty-four hours, and that at night. Monsters of Ancient Times.—About 100 miles to the southeast of Hamilton is a high plateau of land containing an extensive deposit of marine shells and the fossil remains of a large variety of extinct species of fish. But the curiosity which most challenges the interest of antiquarians is the petrified form of what was evidently once an immense sea monster. It lies on a high plateau in a position giving rise to the theory that its lacale was once a great shoal, and that the ancient leviathan had floundered and perished on its surface as the water receded. The petrification is perfect and is estimated to weigh about ten tons. It presents a dual appearance—the head and body that of a humpback whale, and the extremities extend into an antennae-like polypus The "No" Power. The ability to say "no" in life is valuable that it might truly be called the safe side of a man's character. It is almost sure sign of a strong mind and a sound heart. The clerical work and editor, Sidney Smith, who could sensible in spite of his fun, wrote the following very grave paragraph on the power of "no" in young men: "The purity of moral habits is, I afraid of very little use to a man unless it is accompanied by that degree firmness which enables him to act to what he may think right, in spite solicitation to the contrary. Very few young men have the power of negation in any degree at first. It increases with the increase of confidence, and with the experience of those inconvenience which result from the absence of their virtue. Every young man must be posed to temptation; he cannot learn the ways of men without being wicked to their vices. If you attempt to preserve him from danger by keeping him out of the way of it, you renow him quite unfit for any style of life which he may be placed. The great point is, not to turn him out too soon and to give him a pilot at first." Woman's Devotion. Sheriff Prichard tells us that the wife of George Hyer (sentenced to the Penitentiary for five years for horse stealing followed her husband to the walls of the prison). They attempted to get away from Lewiston without letting her know about it, but the poor woman was evermore on the watch at her depot, and so she was on hand when the officers and prisoners started awake last week, and following on the car hung about the neck of her husband at the end of the journey. Mrs. Hyer two children. These she had deliberately given away to her people, detained to remain in joliet near her band, so that she could see him as off as possible, and be ready, at the end of the five years, to welcome him again to freedom. She hoped she would will suit the general taste of any. It should not have a limited allowance to stand, where it is on the back of the table. Remember the skewers and strings before removing them from the table. If you feel, you will make the dish small birds are very nice with the white of an egg, in brea y crumbs before lime with butter, and ap- pled crumbs to bare places in a uniform appearance. Toasted slices of bread, date or two in the gravy is served with game, and delished by some persons. Gages are very nice broiled at breakfast. They are, generally roasted. — Hearth ria, when the diggings well, Signor Blitz visited a large audience, ex- gerdemain.

A correspondent of the Rural Yorker tells how 176 bushels of ear corn were raised on one acre of land Crawford County, Pa. No manure used, but the land—a well drawn swamp—was plowed ten inches deep and planted to corn May 16, in nine three and a half feet apart each w Five stalks were allowed to grow in hill. It also produced two bushes and three wagon loads pumpkins. MARONIC LAW AND USAGE — A brother writes from San Francisco, Cal., under date January 3, as follows: "Please inform me through your columns, of which many of us are constant readers, if Masons are obliged to support the widows of deceased brothers? Please give the order of the day on that head." Answer—The widow of a Master Mason has undoubted claims upon the Fraternity, and it is the bound duty of every Freemason to afford relief, if needed, provided he can do so, without injury to those who have a prior or greater claim on his bounty and benevolence—his own family, for instance. Democrat. Who Knows.—Notice to any person who may have been in the Government train that started from Huerfano Ranch, Colorado Territory about the 30th of January, 1864, for Fort Union, New Mexico: Can you inform me what became of a young man, in that train, by the name of Wm. Thomas Whitson (usually called Tom. on the plains). Any information on the subject will be thankfully received by his father, J. H. Whitson. Address Boise City, Idaho Territory.

SCIENTIFIC ORIGINALS. Mind. If man became extinct, mind or soul would have no further existence. The mind is the soul. The first man had a mind. Mind now exists, and is destined to exist to all futurity. Mind is transmitted from one generation to another. The body is born of the earth. Mind is born of the body—matures during life—and separates into an individual existence at the time of the body's death. The body is only a temporary compound, available in nature for the origin of an immortal being. An Old World.

It occupied a period of 40,000 years for the Niagara river to wear away the great cataract to its present locality. The building-up and tearing-down operations of time, as soon even upon the outer surface of the earth, indicate that the world is old—even waning in the "scar and yellow leaf." The soil itself, crumbled by the decay of rock and animated life, proclaims it. Yet more than all else which proves it, is the written language of God, which tells us so, and which language our geologists read in the successive stratas of the earth. Anger. Individuals work themselves into anger by using violent words—each successive word producing an increase of passion, according to the amount of argument used in the poor effort to arrive at an understanding. If a person, when becoming passionate or angry at another, would but modify the ardor of his speech, or change the subject and speak a half-dozen words mildly, he would not fail to notice, at once, a soothing effect, at least, upon his own disposition.
