A paper called the Skeleton has been Monticello ManSION. Through an avenue of mulberry trees, flanked by cabins formerly occupied by slaves, we dismount and make our way over the green award to the patriot's home. And this is Monticello! The students of the university called it the Eagle's Nest. It is perched high, and seems to the people below to be up among the stars. "The hawk is in the Eagle's Nest," said the students, deadinfully, when Levy-tenanted the building. To them any one would have been a bird of prey that was not a Jefferson. No finer description of this celebrated place is to be found than in Wirt's glowing enlogy upon Adams and Jefferson, and here it is: "The Mansion House, at Monticello, was built and furnished in the days of his prosperity. In its dimensions, its architecture, its arrangements and ornaments, it is such a one as became the character and fortune of the man. It stands upon an elliptic plain, formed by cutting down the apex of a mountain; and, to the west, stretching away to the north and the south, it commands a view of the Blue Ridge for a hundred and fifty miles, and brings under the eye one of the boldest and most beautiful horizons in the world: while on the east it presents an extent of prospect bounded only by the spherical form of the earth, in which nature seems to sleep in eternal repose, as if to form one of her finest contrasts with the rude and rolling grandeur of the west. In the wide prospect, and scattered to the north and south, are several detached mountains, which contribute to animate and diversify this enchanting landscape; and among them to the south, Willis' Mountain, which is so interestingly depicted in his Notes." From this summit the philosopher was wont to enjoy that spectacle, among the sublimest of nature's operations, the looming of the distant mountains; and to watch the motions of the planets, and the greater revolution of the celestial sphere. From this summit, too, the patriot could look down with uninterrupted vision upon the wide expanse of the world around, for which he considered himself born—and upward to the open and vaulted heavens, which he seemed to approach, as if to keep him continually in mind of his high responsibility. It is indeed, a prospect in which you see and feel at once that nothing mean or little could live.

A paper called the Skeleton has been started in Chicago. It already has some bona fide subscribers and a skullarly editor. — [Philadelphia Bulletin. Come now, don't speak of a skeleton in that rib-sided way. Poets lengthen or shorten their lines, or make horrible muddles, under the plea of "poetic license;" but let the servant girl put face powder in the biscuit in place of baking powder, and she'd have to go pretty quick.

When you see a man leaning up against a wall, hat over his eyes, elbows out and stomach empty, and hear him say he doesn't hardly know how he will vote, don't brutally ask him to saw wood for his dinner. He has something to sell. A Nevada gambler said he would blow his brains out if he lost his last five dollars, and when he lost it he was as good as his word. If he had said: "I will quit gambling," he wouldn't have had character enough to sustain his resolution. What lady in the land would care who was elected President, if she was only sure of a sealskin jacket?—[Detroit Free Press. The man who asked that question must be a sour old bachelor or probably a sour old husband whose wife wants him to vote for the other candidate. New Jersey tramps don't put up with any nonsense. One of them was asked by a farmer out there not long ago to help get in some hay in return for food and entertainment furnished and refused to do so, and afterwards destroyed several valuable fruit trees, to the stump of one of which was found a note containing the following: "When a man asks you for something to eat look at these stumps before you refuse him." Funeral Extravagance.—Some of the prominent Jewish rabbis of New York have addressed a letter to their congregations on the subject of extravagance at funerals. They ask their co-religionists to discountenance not only the use of costly caskets, but also the expensive floral displays at funerals which seem to have become habitual. The end might be gained to a very great extent were friends and acquaintances to be notified that flowers would not be accepted." The object of these rabbis must commend itself to every thoughtful person. Fashion and display are repugnant to genuine grief, and surely, if the vanities of the world should ever retire abashed, it is in the philosophy was wont to enjoy that spectacle, among the sublimest of nature's operations, the looming of the distant mountains; and to watch the motions of the planets, and the greater revolution of the celestial sphere. From this summit, too, the patriot could look down with uninterrupted vision upon the wide expanse of the world around, for which he considered himself born—and upward to the open and vaulted heavens, which he seemed to approach, as if to keep him continually in mind of his high responsibility. It is indeed, a prospect in which you see and feel at once that nothing mean or little could live. It is a scene fit to nourish those great and high-souled principles which formed the elements of his character, and was a most noble and appropriate post for such a sentinel over the rights and liberties of men. "Approaching the house on the east the visitor instinctively paused to cast around one thrilling glance at this magnificent panorama, and then passed to the vestibule, where, if he had not been previously informed, he would immediately perceive that he was entering the house of no common man. In the spacious and lofty hall which opens before him, he marks no tawdry and unmeaning ornaments; but before on the right, on the left, all around, the eye is struck and qualified by objects of science and taste, so classed and arranged as to produce their finest effect. On one side, specimens of sculpture, set out in such order as to exhibit at a coup d'œil the historical progress of that art from the first rude attempt of the aborigines of our country up to that exquisite and finished bust of the great patriot himself from the master hand of Carracci. On the other side, the visitor sees displayed a vast collection of specimens of the Indian art, their paintings, weapons, ornaments and manufactures; on another, an array of the fossil productions of our country, mineral and animal; the polished remains of those colossal monsters that once trod our forests and are no more; and a variegated display of the branching honors of those monarchs of the waste that still people the wilds of the American continent. "From this halt he was ushered into a noble saloon, from which the glorious landscape of the west again burst upon his view; and which, within, is hung thick around with the finest productions of the pencil—historical paintings of the most striking subjects from all countries and all ages; the portraits of distinguished men and patriots, both of Europe and America, and medallions and engravings in endless profusion. "While the visitor was yet lost in the contemplation of these treasures of the arts and sciences, he was startled by the approach of a strong and sprightly step, and turning with instinctive reverence to the door of entrance, he was met by the tall, and animated, and stately figure of the patriot himself, his countenance beaming with intelligence and benignity, and his outstretched hand, with its strong cordial pressure, confirming the courteous welcome of his lips. And then came the charm of manner and conversation that passes all description—so cheerful, so unassuming, so free, and easy, and frank, and kind, and gay, that even the young and overawed embarrassed as in the Holy Spirit was about as well Europe as it was in the Judges.

They ask their co-religionists to discountenance not only the use of costly caskets, but also the expensive floral displays at funerals which seem to have become habitual. The end might be gained to a very great extent were friends and acquaintances to be notified that flowers would not be accepted." The object of these rabbis must commend itself to every thoughtful person. Fashion and display are repugnant to genuine grief, and surely, if the vanities of the world should ever retire abashed, it is in the presence of death. Nevertheless, not to follow even a funeral custom is to be exposed to the imputation of indifference or meanness. Hence, a heavy burden is laid upon the poor, who cannot bear to be thought lacking in affection and respect for their dead. The burden is all the heavier for being so needless. We must look to people of wealth or of easy circumstances, and who are above the suspicions of niggardliness, to set an example in this particular, such as propriety and benevolence alike demand. Whoever leads in this reform may be sure that many will rise up and call them blessed.—National Baptist. THE ENGLISH ROYAL FAMILY.—The Galaxy, speaking of the domestic relations of the English royal family, says that "it was a disappointment to the blood royal that the Duke of Cambridge did not marry a German Princess, and it is a sore subject with the Queen's sons that their sister should have married a Marquis. Lord Lorne is terribly snubbed by the lot. The Prince of Teck, who married the Princess Mary of Cambridge, likewise is a source of trouble, for, being a handsome fellow, he is liable to allurements which disturb conjugal felicity. Prince Christian, who has married another of the Queen's daughters, is regarded as a questionable character, because he had previously contracted a morganatic marriage, and the Duke of Edinburgh is 'bothered entirely' on account of the rank of his wife, who, as the daughter of an Emperor, is a stickler for precedence at court. The Prince of Wales is very happily married, but he had some narrow escapes of being led into immoral and illegal connections." An effort is being made in New York city to establish cheap cabs, a ride for a shilling, or something of the sort, with the urbanity and grace of the driver thrown in. Almost anything, even a wheelbarrow, would be an improvement on the communism of the home cars. THE GULF STREAM.—There is a river in the ocean. In the severest draughts it never falls, and in the mightiest floods it never overflows. Its banks and its bottom are of cold water while its current is of warm. The Gulf of Mexico is its fountain, and its mouth is in the Arctic seas. It is the Gulf Stream. There is in the world no other so majestic a flow of water. Its current is more rapid than the Mississippi or the Amazon, and its volume more than a thousand times greater. Its waters, as far out as the Carolina coasts, are of indigo blue. They are so distinctly marked that the line of junction with the common sea water may be traced by the eye. Often one-half of the vessel may be perceived floating in the gulf-stream water, while the other half is in the common water of the sea, so sharp is the line and the want of affinity between these waters; and such, too, the reluctance, so to speak, on the part of those of the gulf stream to mingle with the common water of the sea. In addition to this, there is another peculiar fact. The fishermen on the coast of Norway are supplied with wood from the tropics by the gulf stream. Think of the Arctic fishermen burning upon their hearths the palms of Hayti, the mahogany of Honduras, and the precious woods of the Amazon and Grinocol. THE French Education Commissioners were so much impressed by the educational exhibit of Ontario at the Centennial Exposition, that they have come to Canada to personally inspect the schools. The Hamilton and Wentworth country schools were selected to be shown to them, and the "ambitious city" is quite proud of this honor. Well, good schools are something in which a proper pride may be taken.—Canada Paper. SAN FRANCISCO has fifty millionaires. First Appearance of Gypsies. One day, four hundred and fifty years ago or thereabouts, there knocked at the gates of the city of Luneburg, on the Elbe, as strange a rabble riot as had ever been seen by German burgher. There were three hundred of them, men and women, accompanied by an extraordinary number of children. They were dusky of skin, with jet black hair and eyes; they wore strange garments; they were unwashed and dirty even beyond the liberal limits tolerated by the cold water-fearing citizens of Luneburg; they had with them horses, donkeys and carts; they were led by two men whom they described as duke and count. These two alone were dressed in some kind of splendor, and rode richly caparisoned horses; they were most courteous in manner; they seemed careful to conciliate; they talked among themselves a strange language, and they understood the language of the country. All they asked was permission to camp for a few days outside the gates. All the Luneburgers turned out to gaze open-mouthed at these pilgrims, while the duke and the count told the authorities their tale, which was wild and romantic; even had they invented a story to suit their own objects, no other could so well have enlisted the sympathies of a credulous, kindly, uncritical, and soft-hearted folk. Many years before, they explained, while the tears of penitence stood in the eyes of all but the youngest children, they had been a Christian community, living in orthodoxy, and therefore happiness, in a far off country known as Egypt. The Luneburgers had heard of Egypt. Crusades had not been out of fashion more than two hundred years, the people still told of dreadful things done in Egypt as well as in the Holy Land. Egypt, indeed, was about as well known to medieval Europe as it was to the Israelites under the Judges. The strangers came from Egypt. It was the land of the phoenix. It was not far from the dominions of Preston John. It was the country of the Saracens and the infidel. They were then a happy Christian flock. To their valley came the Saracens, an execrable race, worshipping Mahmoud. Yielding, in an evil hour, to the threats and persecutions of their conquerors, they—here they turned their faces and wept aloud—they adjured Christ. But thereafter they had no rest or peace, and a remorse so deep fell upon The Secur Process. Since we published an article the other day upon the Secur Presses, we have obtained a more detailed description of its workings. The machine itself is a strong iron closed cylinder with the gearing on top and a shaft passing down through with mullers set at an angle of forty-five degrees, something like the blade of a propeller. The action of these mullers is peculiar. As they turn they send up the mixture of water and ore in the machine towards the top. Their action is precisely the same as that of the propeller of a ship and their force may be estimated easily by reflecting for one moment on that exerted by a propeller. Their effect is to most thoroughly mix the whole mass together. The ore to be treated, often being crushed wet or dry, is charged into the machine in quantities of one ton of 2000 pounds, there being sufficient water in the cylinder to receive the ore and the mullers making their usual turns. The man-hole plate is then put on, the ore submitted to the disintegrating power of steam under pressure of from ten to sixty pounds to the square inch. This is done to thoroughly prepare the charge for amalgamation, and the pressure and the degree of heat that accompany it are put on according to the general character of the ores to be treated. After being worked for 1 or 2 hours at the high pressure required the steam is shut off and the pressure reduced through a pipe for that purpose. Quicksilver is put in the charge, everything made light and amalgamation commences and ends in one or two hours. When finished all is discharged into a settler and a new charge put immediately into the machine. Work is going on all the time, for while cleaning up the settler more ore is being treated. This treatment of ores does not necessarily take the length of time mentioned, but varies according to the class. Some ores can be charged in the machine and thoroughly treated as above in one hour and a half. For saving very fine gold in ores, gold that floats and cannot be precipitated, it can be easily understood that in amalgamation the heat of the steam agitates quicksilver, the mullers carry it up in the charge, bringing it in perfect contact with the metal it is searching for. In treating a sulphurea pressure of 60 pounds is put on to thoroughly disintegrate, decompose, desulphurize or drive off the sulphate that holds the gold a prisoner. That effected amalgamation is easy. A very heavy sulphur will have to be roasted prior to amalgamation by this method, but it will not be necessary to crush the ore fine before roasting. Desulphurizing in a common lime-kiln furnace, the ore broken to the size of an egg, is all that will be required, and ore in this way can be roasted in large quantities. Very base ores can be treated in this machine raw and made to yield to about 70 per cent. of fire assay, but with the assistance of a plain fire treatment in addition, the yield will be sufficient to satisfy all reasonable men. With silver ores the treatment is the same except the very moderate use of chemicals, the cost of which is very much less than in the ordinary open pan process. The supposition is that gold is mechanically combined in the farm. GOLD AND SILVER SAVING. Manhattan Ore Treating Co., by Secor's Process. WORK ORES IN LOTS FROM FIFTY POUNDS to a number of tons.

The strangers came from Egypt. It was the land of the phoenix. It was not far from the dominions of Preston John. It was the country of the Saracen and the infidel. They were then a happy Christian flock. To their valley came the Saracens, an execrable race, worshipping Mahmoud. Yielding, in an evil hour, to the threats and persecutions of their conquerors, they—here they turned their faces and wept aloud—they adjured Christ. But thereafter they had no rest or peace, and a remorse so deep fell upon their souls that they were fain to arise, leave their homes and journey to Rome in hope of getting reconciliation with the church. They were graciously received by the Pope, who promised to admit them back into the fold after seven years of penitential wandering. They had letters of credit from King Sigismund—would the Luneburgers kindly look at them? granting safe conduct and recommending them to the safe protection of all honest people. The Luneburg folk were touched at the recital of so much suffering in a cause so good; they granted the request of the strangers. They allowed them to encamp; they watched in curiosity while the black tents were pitched, the naked babies rolled out on the grass, the donkeys tethered, and the brass kettle slung over the newly-kindled fire; then they went home. The next day the strangers visited the town. In the evening a good many things were missed, especially those unconsidered trifles which a housewife may leave about her doorway. Poultry became suddenly scarce; eggs doubled in price; it was rumored that purses had been lost while their owners gazed at the strangers; cherished cups of silver were not to be found. Could it be that these Christian penitals, these remorseful backsliders, these seekers after holiness, these interesting pilgrims, so gentle of speech, so courteous and humble, were cutupurs and thieves? The next day there remained no doubt about the matter at all, because the gentle strangers were taken in the act, red-handed. While the Luneburgers took counsel, in their leisurely way, how to meet a case so uncommon, the pilgrims suddenly decamped, leaving nothing behind them but the ashes of their fires and the picked bones of purloined poultry. Then Dogberry called unto him his brother Verges, and they fell to thanking God that they were rid of knaves. This was the first historical appearance of gypsies. It was a curious place to appear in. The mouth of the Elbe is a long way from Egypt, even if you travel by sea, which does not appear to have been the case; and a journey on land not only would have been infinitely more fatiguing, but one would think have led to some notice on the road before reaching Luneburg. There, however, the gypsies certainly are first heard of, and henceforth history has plenty to say about their doings. WIT MIGHTIER THAN WRATH.—During a theatrical representation at Edinburgh, a presuming young coxcomb chose to render himself conspicuous, by standing up in the midst of the pit all through the progress of the first act of the play. His "Boudoir" picture was a vast improvement over all existing card portraits, and has virtually superceded them all. Its many special features of beauty naturally aroused the envy of other photographers, who have not hesitated to pirate both name and style in order, if possible, to turn a little of the tide of patronage from Morse's gallery to their own. Try as they may, however, they cannot successfully imitate the striking, artistic excellence of Morse's productions, which will hold the gold a prisoner. That effect amalgamation is easy. A very heavy sulphur will have to be roasted prior to amalgamation by this method, but it will not be necessary to crush the ore fine before roasting. Desulphurizing in a common lime-kiln furnace, the ore broken to the size of an egg, is all that will be required, and ore in this way can be roasted in large quantities. Very base ores can be treated in this machine raw and made to yield to about 70 per cent. of fire assay, but with the assistance of a plain fire treatment in addition; the yield will be sufficient to satisfy all reasonable men. With silver ores the treatment is the same except the very moderate use of chemicals, the cost of which is very much less than in the ordinary open process. The supposition is that gold is mechanically combined in the ore; silver, with exceptions, chemically combined with other metals or minerals in the ore; hence use at times of the addition of fire treatment and chemicals for the successful working and yield of silver ores by any amalgamating process. The quantity of steam used in this machine is merely nominal, the steam once through the pulp with the first pressure on is the largest supply wanted. The continuation of the pressure through the pipe is to supply the trifling amount of steam that condenses. Mr. Secor does not claim to treat all kinds of ores by his method but tells us that the class of ores he can and has worked successfully with a good yield is sufficient to handsomely remunerate him. He says that this process will enable parties to work low-grade ores at a cost that will yield a profit, and that mine owners can have ores from their mines worked in quantities of from five to ten tons before purchasing the machines.

WIT MIGHTIER THAN WRATH.—During a theatrical representation at Edinburgh, a presuming young coxcomb chose to render himself conspicuous, by standing up in the midst of the pit all through the progress of the first act of the play. His neighbors were at first too polite to insist on his conforming to the usual regulations, and merely represented to him the inconvenience those behind must suffer, to which he paid no manner of attention. The audience at last began to testify their displeasure, and the cry of "Turn him out!" became universal, and a riot would most probably have ensued from the indignation of one party and the obstinacy of the other, had it not been for the witty Hon. Henry Erskine, who laying a wager with a gentleman near him that he would accomplish the matter by a single sentence, stood up, and addressing himself to the persons who were forcing compliance on the obstinate youth, exclaimed: "Leave him alone, gentlemen! It is only a tailor resting himself!" A roar of laughter followed the exclamation, the efficacy of which was immediately testified by the disappointed object of it, whose only motive was to impress those around him with a high notion of his fashion and gentility. They were talking about Talma. An old man of ninety-five was dozing in his arm-chair. "Talma!" he said, rousing himself. The young people all crowded around him, eagerly. "You knew Talma!" "Yes, Talma—his father was a dentist—" "Go on! Talma, the great, the illustrious, the magnificent tragedian?" "Magnificent! Aye, you may talk of your actors, you youngsters: but Talma—I saw him once." "You did! you did! What in? "A hack!" The steam street cars in Paris are something near the right sort of street cars. They are magnificently built three-deck vehicles, capable of carrying two hundred persons, and are luxurious to ride in. An elegant stairway, with silver railing, reaches the deck, and the steam engine is so managed that it affords no inconvenience to the passengers. Life, adds greatly to the patronage bestowed upon photography. Every one knows that Mr. Morse has specially distinguished himself in his profession, invariably taking the lead in all the improvements which have given to the art so much perfection. Having the ambition and talents to originate new styles, he has very deservedly placed himself at the head of photographic artists. His "Boudolot" picture was a vast improvement over all existing card portraits, and has virtually superseded them all. Its many special features of beauty very naturally aroused the envy of other photographers, who have not hesitated to pirate both name and style in order, if possible, to turn a little of the tide of patronage from Morse's gallery to their own. Try as they may, however, they cannot successfully imitate the striking, artistic excellence of Morse's productions, which will always maintain their great superiority, no matter how many rival efforts may be made to equal them in public favor. The artists engaged at present in this gallery are the most accomplished on the Pacific Coast, and the appliances of each department are simply perfect. Every one who desires portraits which are really faithful likenesses and gems of art, should go nowhere else. S. F. Post. Important from the Centennial.

Interior View of the Pacific Business College How to impart a Business Education—An Educational Banking Establishment A late visit to the Pacific Business College afforded us a great deal of pleasure. It is located at 320 Post street, occupying the third story of the Red Men's Building, opposite Union Square, and is under the management of Messrs. W. E. Chamberlain Jr., and T. A. Robinson. This institution, designed to afford facilities for obtaining a thorough and practical business education, has been in successful operation since 1864. It has during that time prepared more young men for business careers than all other institutions on the coast, and its graduates obtaining first-class situations without difficulty, are now found honorably filling positions of trust in our leading mercantile houses, insurance offices, and banks, as well as in other walks of life. The system pursued by Messrs. Chamberlain & Robinson is one that is approved by our most practical business men and heat educators throughout the country. Taking students through the rudiments of book-keeping, the theory of business, and finally through the actual practice of what they have been taught, it not only preaches business but it praises what it preaches.

A good fair common school education should be possessed by each student when entering. They are first placed in the theoretical department, where book-keeping in all its branches is taught, and also higher arithmetic and penmanship, if they are not proficient in those branches. After being carefully instructed here, a thorough examination must be satisfactorily sustained, when they are promoted into the Practical Department. Where the actual practice supercedes or rather supplements the theoretical. Here the student enters into the active strife of life; he buys, sells, discounts, transacts banking, commission and forwarding business, exports, imports, wholesales, retails, and even sometimes falls in business and compromises with his creditors. Here he serves in every capacity required of a man in every day business life in our city. He is a merchant, agent, clerk, teller, cashier, banker, bank president, debtor and creditor; and in each of his various positions has a chance to display the same abilities that will sometimes make him a man of note or a citizen in a community. The institution makes a specialty of its telegraphie and banking departments. The latter is fitted up precisely as are the city banks, the same offices, the same sets of books, the same operations carried on that may be witnessed every day in any of the banking institutions on Montgomery or California streets, and the youth must be hopeless indeed who falls to be fitted for a banking position after having graduated here. And the same is true of the other departments. No one of any business capacity can graduate from this institution except he come out with a practical knowledge of business transactions such as fits him at once to take almost any position in the walks of life requiring a knowledge of mercantile operations and books; and it is no less useful in rural life, for every farmer should be a business man. General lectures upon such subjects as commercial law, political economy, business ethics, commercial geography, business success, etc., are given regularly, which may be listened to with profit by others than students. Telegraphing also is taught, and even while we were examining the various departments we heard the click of the instruments as some of the students were conversing through its instrumentality. Altogether we consider the Pacific Business College one of the most valuable educational institutions in our state, and hope to see its rooms continue as well filled as new.
