Aimless Lives.
If there is anything calculated to make an earnest, thoughtful person disappointed in human nature, it is the sight of the many aimless lives being lived in the world, and although I say it with heaviness of heart, yet, feeling the truth it must be said, there are many more such lives among women than men. Not that women are altogether to blame for this. A man whose money has been earned for him, and who has nothing to do but to spend it, is an exception to the general rule; but the majority of women are supported, not by their own earnings, but by those of husband, father or brother, consequently to comparatively many of them the necessity never comes of providing for their daily wants, but none the less is it a shame to any intelligent woman who is contented to spend her days in a thoughtless round of pleasures, obeying the letter, if not the spirit, of the Scriptural injunction, literally taking "no thought for the morrow."
Now, let it be distinctly understood that in order to live a noble life, embodying a plan and a purpose, it is not essential that a support must be obtained. Many of the noblest and best lives are spent in a round of self-sacrificing labor which leaves scarcely a moment for rest or recreation, and admits of no thought of pecuniary reward. Happy the woman whose sphere lies within her own home, who finds in the watchful care of husband and children the best scope for her loving activity, who tolls on day after day with head and heart and hand, amply repaid for all her labor by the love which crowns her life. Such an one is indeed thrice blessed; but turning now to the dark side of the picture, think how many homes you could point out where there are women living apparently in total disregard of the fact that they have been sent into the world with any special work to perform, or that any time has been given them as a gift to which they will one day be accountable.
Every girl should be so educated as to be able to do some one thing well, so well that if the necessity should ever arise, it may become to her a visible means of support; but if no such necessity ever overtakes her, she should still look upon this as her pursuit which is to be followed as conscientiously and faithfully as her brother would apply himself to his busi-
Hidden Treasures.
Mr. Latouche, in "Travels in Portugal," tells us something of a general faith among the Portuguese in hidden treasures:
It is hardly to be believed with what childish credulity stories of hidden treasures are told and accepted in all parts of Portugal. There is more time and labor wasted in searching for the imaginary concealed riches than would earn real wealth if properly directed. Some small foundation, indeed, for this general credulity exists in the hoarding propensities necessarily produced in former times of insecurity and danger; and one or two well-attested instances of the discovery of hidden treasure have come to my own knowledge. An English merchant, having occasion to make some repairs in a house rented by him, in or near the town of Regoa, the workmen, either in pulling down a wall or in taking up a floor, came upon a receptacle containing about two hundred millreis, in gold and silver coin—about forty or fifty pounds. A goldsmith of Visen told me that the garden-wall of a neighbor threatening to fall, it was ordered to be pulled down; and that on one very heavy stone in it being removed, an earthen pot was laid bare in a little hollow behind where it had stood, and in this pot no less than seven golden moldores! These discoveries were not magnificent ones, and it is not likely that the few when now and again are made, are more so; but they serve to keep up prevailing appetite for treasure-seeking.
There has always prevailed a belief that an immense treasure was hidden away—I have never heard under what circumstances—in the uninhabited royal palace of Queluz, near Lisbon; and ineffectual efforts have from time to time been made to find it. A few years ago, great interest was suddenly created by the announcement that an old sergeant of artillery had sent, on his death-bed, for a high officer of the court, and had confided to him that he—the sergeant—was the sole survivor of the party which had been intrusted with the concealment of the treasure in question. He then proceeded to describe accurately the situation in which it was to be found. There was, as may be imagined, prodigious excitement among the lords and ladies of the court; and, on a certain day, a large party of

There is very little evidence in our review of the book at the past week. In all the want of money has felt; so much having general circulation and routinely check business. It is thought, state of affairs will be announced that the Bank its doors on the 1st of October will be at 9:00 AM half of which announced that the S.A.

Wheat receipts continue which go on board shortly on arrival. Ex date aggregate about and flour, having a value $44,000.00. Freighters $64@ £212s to England; a large number of arriving past week, and the tonnage in our harbor 22,000 tons.

Every girl should be so educated as to be able to do some thing well, so well, that if the necessity should ever arise, it may become to her a visible means of support; but if no such necessity ever overtakes her, she should still look upon this as her pursuit which is to be followed as conscientiously and faithfully as her brother would apply himself to his business. The time has not gone by when a woman must necessarily be regarded as a curiosity because she works when there is no necessity laid upon her, but opinions have changed much during the last fifty years. It is now not necessary for a woman to be denounced as a poor housekeeper because she has chanced to write a clever story for a magazine. It has been clearly demonstrated that a woman can give a certain portion of her time to the painting or sculpturing, in which her soul delights, without neglecting either her husband or children. Do you remember that story told in Mrs. Somerville's biography, of her turning from an abstruse mathematical problem to mend, and beautifully too, some rare, old lace that a visitor had torn? She is a good example of a woman who had a purpose in life and lived accordingly, and yet, after reading her life, you would not for a moment doubt that she did not always attend to the wants of her household. Let every tongue be raised against any pursuit that would make a maiden unmaidenly, but a woman may solve mathematical problems, and yet dress artistically. She may write for magazines and yet be a notable housekeeper. Oh, if all idle livers could be made to feel what a solemn thing is life: how many are its cares and responsibilities, and how short is the time given to bear them; if they could be made to see that some work lies ready for their hand which no other can perform, surely they would cast aside all idle, foolish thoughts and begin to live a life so lofty and ennobling that all their fellow toilers would be enosuraged, for truly,

And all life cannot be purer and stronger thereby."

"He was in the habit of getting drunk and beating his wife, and had often been known by the neighbors to strike her before the time of the fatal blow."
Substantially like this runs some police report in almost every number of the great daily papers of our large cities. The unreflecting reader turns from such a paragraph in disgust. He regards it as low and vulgar, in the extreme. Low and vulgar is the conduct of the husband which is thus described.
But how about the wife, whose wretched life has been ended by an act of brutality and violence on the part of another? In many an instance it has been hers to practice a patience which has been long-suffering and untiring, and a forbearance realizing the divine command: "Who-soever smitheth tree on the one cheek, turn to blim the other also." No fiction narrows out where there are women living apparently in total disregard of the fact that they have been sent into the world with any special work to perform, or that any time has been given them as a gift to which they will one day be accountable.

I am aware that the belief of the members of the diamond club in hidden stone rests upon any thing resembling evidences or upon any thing at all except fact that a great number of fine gems particularly diamonds do exist in the country. The Portuguese obtained many precious stones of great value from India during the palmy days of their connection with that country; and more still chiefly diamonds from their Brazilian dependencies. I have seen at evening parties in Lisbon and Oporto,a far greater show of good diamonds than would be seen on similar occasions in London or Paris;the stones indeed,mostly ill-set,但 representing an immense money value.

lie report in almost every number of the great daily papers of our large cities. The unreflecting reader turns from such a paragraph in disgust. He regards it as low and vulgar, in the extreme. Low and vulgar is the conduct of the husband which is thus described.
But how about the wife, whose wretched life has been ended by an act of brutality and violence on the part of another? In many an instance it has been hers to practice a patience which has been long-suffering and untiring, and a forbearance realizing the divine command: "Who soever smitheth thee on the one check, turn to him the other also." No fiction narrates a love, a devotion, a submission surpassing hers. Painters have not illustrated and poets have not sung higher Christian qualities in woman than are sometimes found to adorn the habitations of the lowly, amid abject poverty, and where vice and brutality are encountered. If love led to the fall of our first parents, it can be said, on the other hand, to have illuminated the darkest abyss to which human nature has ever descended.
PENN'S GRAVE.—William Penn's grave lies hidden among weeds and brambles in a humble Quaker burying-ground in the very shadow of the grand estate which he gave up to join the humble sect. It is in Buckinghamshire, and a party of whom was Col. Forney, recently found it through much difficulty. A simple stone inscribed "William Penn, 1817," marks the grave of the founder of the mighty Keystone State.
No words can tell with more striking effect the story of Penn's life, than the pomp and glitter left on record at the family seat, and the unmarked grave on the low hillside of him who has given fame to the name. It told the story of the conversion of a man of family and position to a creed which cast him out of the social scale. The tale was of persecution; of the meetings in the wildest parts of the country; of the graveyard—itself buried even from a keen search—for in those days it would have been no light task to have reached that spot; and the burial without record of a man and his family who had foresworn the pumps and vanities of this life to realize in death, to the fullest extent, all that his creed had taught.

BENEFITS OF LAUGHTER.—Probably there is not the remotest corner of our little inlet of the minute blood vessels of the body that does not feel some wavelet from the great convulsions produced by hearty laughter skating the central man. The blood moves more lively—probably its chemical, electric or vital condition is distinctly modified—it conveys a different impression to all the organs of the body as it visits them on that particular journey, when a man is laughing, from what it does at other times. And thus it is that a good laugh lengthens a man's life by conveying a distinct and additional stimulus to vital forces. The time may come when physicians, attending more closely than they do now to the innumerable subtle influence which the soul exerts upon its tenement of clay, shall prescribe to a torpid patient "so many peals of laughter, to be undergrown at such a time," just as they do that more objectionable prescription—a pill or an electric or galvanic shock.
OUR BURDENS.—"Johnny, don't you think you have got as much as you can carry?" said Frank to his brother, who was standing with open arms, receiving the bundles his father placed upon them. "You've got more than you can carry now." "Never mind," said Johnny, in a sweet, happy voice, "my father knows how much I can carry." How long it takes many of us to learn the lesson little Johnny had by heart! "Father knows how much I can carry." No grumbling, no discontent, but a sweet trust in our Father's love and care that we will not be overburdened. Our Heavenly Father never lays a burden upon us we cannot bear. So we will trust him, as little Johnny did his father.
A SARATOGA correspondent tells of the dresses of the lady visitors, even in this season of hard times. One took her fifty dresses, all elegant and costly; another, for the full season, has never appeared twice in the same dress, and a third's elegance of attire was so grand and beautiful that many ladies were two envious to appear upon the same floor or platform with her.
SAN FRANCISCO MARKET.
There is very little of special interest to note in our review of the business of the city for the past week. In all departments of trade the want of money has been most severely felt; so much having been withdrawn from general circulation as to embarrass and seriously check business operations in all directions. It is thought, however, that a better date of affairs will soon exist, as it is announced that the Bank of California will open its doors on the 1st of October, with a guarantee capital of $7,800,000—twenty per cent. of which will have been paid in—and the new Bank of Nevada will commence busings on the 4th of October, with a capital of $10,000,000—one-half of which will be paid up. It is announced that the S.F. Stock and Exchange Board will also open for a continuance of regular sessions of sales of stock on or about the first proximo.
Late advices from the European markets note a still further decline in the prices of grain, but more especially of wheat—the harvests giving a result much greater than anticipated. Our quotations, as made from that market weekly, show a steady decline since August 1st. That market is now reported weak at prices given, while the market here is rather firm. Flour is in better demand, both for export and home consumption, prices of all grades having been reduced in a ratio corresponding with the lessened price of wheat. Barley transactions are light while receipts are quite large and the tendency in prices is lower. Oats are in large receipt and prices steady. Corn comes forward freely and prices ease off. Rye is steady with free receipts; Potatoes are in moderate supply with prices well sustained, under the impression of short crops, caused by blight or disease. Onions are more plentiful and prices lower. The Fall elf of wool is coming forward freely, but transactions are light, and stocks accumulate. Prices are extremely low, general quality reported short and undesirable.
Fruits of all seasonable varieties are in active demand, and with the exception of grapes, which are abundant, command high prices as compared with former seasons; the supply is quite moderate: our quotations have a wide range, as prices fluctuate daily according to the supply.
WHEAT.—Receipts during the week have continued large, the greater part of which having been previously purchased for export goes directly on board ship. Transaction for the week have been light, on account of tightness in the money market. There has been but slight change in price of Wheat since our last report, either here or in Liverpool. The

There has been no discovery in art that has proven of such universal benefit to mankind at large, as has photography. When Daguerre first found the secret of obtaining a fine likeness of any person or thing by the action of light on a sensitive surface, it was the dawn of a new era in the progress of the fine art. There has been such rapid advancement in the various branches of this art since its first discovery, that now it would seem there had been a degree of excellence attained that is almost perfection. San Francisco, although but a quarter of a century old, has contributed largely to the degree of perfection that has been reached in this beautiful art. There are few cities in the world that can surpass in excellence workmanship and truthfulness of representation, the work of our San Francisco photograph artists. Indeed, she has won an enviable reputation at home and abroad, by the superiority of their skill. True, there may be somewhat of this fame attributable to the grandeur and gorgeousness of the landscape scenery that nature has pleased to give as subjects to our California artists, but grandeur and beauty, whereover they exist, flee the approach of the inappreciative and vulgar mind, and vanish from the easel that receives its coloring from an unartistic hand.
We might truthfully say that California owes her world-wide good name to her photographic artists. There has been nothing that has aided so much in bringing her before the public in a favorable light, as the photographic views of her wonderful scenery. So popular have they been that they are now to be found in almost every land. When the wonderful stories regarding California natural scenery were sent back to the Eastern States or the European countries by the argonants of '49, they were, for a long time, looked upon as the exaggerated tales of a disappointed band of pilgrims. But when the photographer had been throughout the land, and by his art had produced these natural wonders in all their truthful grandeur, there was sent among the doubling and incredulous these faithful witnesses to the oft told stories, the truthfulness of which none dared to challenge.
Among the foremost in this work we take pleasure in naming Mr. C.E. Watkins. His Yosemite gallery, at 26 Montgomery St., is one of the first places to which the tourist turns when he steps forth into our streets the first morning after his arrival. There is no one of ordinary intelligence who comes to our shore, but has heard of the grand and romantic scenery of the Yosemite, the mammoth trees, the Geysers or the sylvan beauty of the scenery on the Columbia river, Oregon; and while the enthusiasm a visit to California inspires at its height, he desires to take a look through the stereoscope at all these. Mr. Watkins has made a specialty of portrait and landscape photography, and we doubt not, has given more attention to securing a variety of the best stereoscopic views of the abounding scenery than any other artist in
Adjustable Strain Scroll Saw.
Cordovan, Egan & Co.'s improved adjustable strain scroll saw, which is exhibited by Treadwell & Co., at the Fair, is claimed to be the most perfect and fastest cutting scroll saw yet made in the United States. The upper part or strain consists of a differential trawling pulley is connection with a spring which gives an over tension, and does away with all friction and slides. The machine has a four-inch stroke, and the loose and tight pallows can be run so as to make from 1,400 to 1,700 revolutions per minute without the slightest jar to the machine.
The adjustable slides below the table are of the best gun metal, with self-oiling globes; and the cross head which works in the same is solid forged steel. The changing from inside to outside work is much quicker than on any strained or unstrained saw. The operator passes the end of the saw through the table until it strikes a steel plate, from whence it slides into the cross head, in a way that it impossible for the saw to miss catching. The machine has a patent brake and shifter combined; the brake rising as if on a screw, and applying its full force to the crank wheel, instantly stopping the machine.
The saw is adapted for furniture and bracket factories, planing mills, carpenter and pattern shops, wagon work, and general scroll sawing. The machine is well built, and tried in the shops of the manufacturers before shipping.
The agents inform us that Mr. Brown, Superintendent for H.B. Mudgee, proprietor of one of largest furniture factories in Cincinnati, took out three other scroll saws, and replaced them with one of this pattern, and is willing to make afidavit that it does work of any three saws he has ever used—Fair Daily.
The Standard Soap Co., Of 204 Sacramento St., San Franciello, make a fine display of California Soaps in the western alale. Included in it are specimens of two dozen Standard brands of California Soaps, now manufactured by this company, any of which would be sufficient to make a reputation for any ordinary house. Besides these they have on exhibition Washing Powders, the quality of which has been tested by long years of use, and the favor with which they are regarded by the public is shown by the largeness of their consumption. The display of Toilet and Fancy Soaps made by this company is very fine, and will naturally prompt the question to the mind of visitors why it is that, producing such splendid goods at home, there are such large quantities imported every year from the cities of France. Almond, Honey, Glycerine, Poncine, Oriental and a dozen other kinds arranged together, make a very attractive exhibit. They are of all colors, and are scented with the choicest perfumes. The company which makes this exhibit is one of the oldest manufacturing companies in the city, and its history is a striking example of what energy and good business qualifications will do. It has during the past three years had consolidated with it most of the principal Soap factories of the city, and is now building near

Mr. Watkins has made a specialty of portrait and landscape photography, and we doubt not, has given more attention to securing a variety of the best stereoscopic views of the abounding scenery than any other artist on the coast. That he has been successful in this visit to his commodious rooms will furnish sufficient evidence.
He has a fine collection in all sizes of the famous scenery on the coast, including also the prominent subjects along the line of the Pacific railroad, and various mining and city views. A European art journal, in speaking of some of Mr. Watkins' views, says: "Between the wonders of nature and the skill of man, we have certainly before us in these views the finest photographs that have been seen in Europe." The only medal awarded by the Paris Exposition for California photography, and the first prize by the Vienna Exposition, was awarded to Mr. Watkins. His photographic portraits in every style are not surpassed in artistic excellence by any one. It is certainly a rare treat to visit Mr. Watkins' gallery and see the choice pictures that adorn its walls.
A Fine Display of Carriages
Is made in the south end of the balcony by the well-known Carvill Manufacturing Company. The exhibit takes up one entire corner of the Pavilion, and is so nicely arranged and attractive as to charm the eye of the visitor, even after "doing" the beauties of the Art Gallery close by. The floor upon which the carriages stand, as well as the rough, bare walls on either side, are covered with strips of gally-colored carriage cloth and carpeting, presenting a very neat and even elegant surrounding to the beautifully polished articles within. The first vehicle that claims the attention of the visitor is a black satin-lined clarence, mounted with gold and ivory, trimmed inside with crimson satin and superfinished in every particular. This gorgeous piece of work was built to order for one of the wealthy brokers. Next comes a new and peculiar style of an English T cart, the front seat divided so as to make ingress and egress easy. It is a comfortable as well as a handsome vehicle, resplendent in trimmings of green broadcloth and massive silver mountings. It was built to order for J. W. Brown. The attention of the visitor is next diverted to an elegantly-finished coupe, mounted in gold and ivory, trimmed with dark green satin, tufted with English tufts, tipped with gold and gold striped lace. Then follows a three-quarter laudaudet, made so as to open to the ease and convenience of the occupants, mounted in gold and ivory and trimmed exactly after the style of the above mentioned coupe. The next vehicle is an ELEGANT COUPE ROCKAWAY, built to order for C. B. Land, and complete in finish and appointments. It is trimmed with brown cloth and satin and mounted in gold and ivory. Next is seen the new pattern extension-top rockaways, trimmed very neatly in brown cloth, a gold-mounted and spring-top buggy, trimmed with blue cloth and blue satin lining; two top-buggies of the same pattern trimmed in dark, and two single-seated wagons, light but very stout, and the vehicle par excellence for the road and track. A very fine and substantial piece of work is the full-sized laudaudet built to order for the Grand Hotel. It is neatly mounted in silver, trimmed in a substantial manner with blue cloth, blue tuffs and figures of lace. But the beauties of the exhibit, the vehicles fair sex rub their hands over and admire all the rest, are two graceful ladies' phaetons, one trimmed in green cloth and the other in drab with black silk embroidery. The last is a perfect work of art, and should be seen by every visitor attending the Fair.

WOOL.—The bulk of the Spring clip has been marketed. There still remains a few lots of choice northern on hand, for which extreme rates are demanded. Fall wooles are coming in freely—good free Fall wool is quotable within the range of 12½%@14½%; all other grades 9@12c, as to length of staple and condition.

Eureka Hair.-Patented.
This article is grown and manufactured exclusively in California. It is a close imitation of horse hair, made from a native vegetable product, admirably suited for upholstering purposes, and from its cheapness, cleanliness and durability, seems likely to supersede every other article in use. So great indeed, are its merits acknowledged to be by competent judges, that it is said to be superior to genuine hair. As a home product it is entitled to a conspicuous place among local manufactures, and the community will be false to itself if it does not encourage its use in every possible manner. Vastly cheaper and almost as good as the best horse hair, much preferable to common hair, and far superior to any known subunitate, comfortable and healthy to sleep on, and so durable that it can be constantly renewed, it has become an important element in domestic furniture, not only on this Coast, but elsewhere.
Many persons, especially in the country, who not being acquainted with the wonderful resources of this beautiful and prolific State, attach a false value to foreign products, are addicted to the use as a substitute for horse hair, of an article imported from the Sandwich islands, known as pula, which is one of the most objectionable substitutes that ignorance can introduce into mattresses, since use converts it into powder, and the fine dust escaping through the tickling, settles in the pores of the skin. In addition to being inhaled by the sleeper, thereby possibly producing skin or lung disease, to say nothing of that fearful scourge leprosy, which is so prevalent in the Hawaiian Islands, the origin of which the most experienced of physicians may be unable to trace. As it is a home production, it is worthy of more than ordinary notice. Manufactured by J.HERZOG & CO., 416 Sacramento St., San Francisco.
