ANECDOTE OF DANIEL WEBSTER.—
Rev. Mr. Dwight, officiating clergyman
ut the North Congregational Church, in
the conrse of his sermon on Sunday
svening, related the following strikiug
aneedoteof the “manof giant mind.”j
Upon entering church one Sabbath
morning, afriend remarked, sneeringly,
“Mr. Webster, you worskip where the
doctrine of ‘one in three and three mm
one’ is upheld” “My friend,’ replied
Mr. Webster, ‘neither you nor I understand the arithmetic of heaven \""—[Nantucket Enguirer.

saved from the

lends itself most opulently to pathos and }
humor. It has been kept free from those
pedantic Jonsonianisms which have
been so fatal to the English language.
In its homeliness there is a powes a fter
which the English language often strives
in vain. Whatin effect is homeliness
but that which, coming froin the home,
goes back thither with natural impulse
and force? A

Isn’r THIS Nice ?7—=Such was the exelamation of a little beggar girl, one
cold, rainy, blustering evening, a short
time since, as she stopped upon the grating over the orifice whence escapes the
hot air and steam’ of one of the many
engines that burrow beneath the sidewalks of Ann and Nassan streets, New
York. The ragged little creature was
bare-footed ; her feet were red with cold
and the genial warmth of the grating
and steam sentsuch a thrill of satisfaction to her heart, that she involuntarily
gave expression to her delight —“Isn’t
this nice!” There was content—delight—in the tone; and we could not
help thinking, as we passed along, how
small and humble a matter will bestow
happiness when theright thing happens
to be applied in the right place. Reader, you oan feci “nice” over an iron grating as well as by the side of the parlor

NEVADA JOURNAL. = Baron Muncuason at Pike’s
EAK-—About the tallest specimen of
lying that has lately come under our observation; we copy from an exchange.
It is as follows :
Young gentlemen afflicted with Pike’s
Peak fever, will be interested in the following statement from a reliable gentleman in the new El! Dorado, of the manner of gathering gold in the diggings. A
man takes a framework of heavy timbers, built like a stoneboat, the bottom of
which is composed of heavy iron rasps.
This frame work is hoisted up to the top
of the Peak, and the man gets on and
slides down the side of the mountain.
As he goes swiftly down, the rasps on
the bottom of the framework scrape off
the gold in immense shavings, which
curl up on tothe machine, and by the
time the man gets to the bottom, nearly
a ton of gold is following him. This is
the common manner of gathering it.
Another planis to bore a hole in the
side of the mountain, and fill it with coal
and bitumen. A rousing fire is then
built, ana the proprietors sit around and
it.” Shortly the gold begins to
soften and welt, when quickly a stream
blow
of molten gold, as thick as your leg,
runs, out through the fire, and is caught
in moulds of sand made for the purpose,
from whence the gold comes in sheets,
eight or ten feet square, of the thickness of first-class boiler iron. Gold is
tooplenty here, in fact. A paper of
tobacco will buy two tons of it.
Iamturning my attention to something different. I have found, inthe
gulch from which I date this letter,
lumps of gold nearly as large as a handsled, fairly encrusted with diamonds. I
have dropped the gold business since,
and have been steadily laboring in the
diamond department. You will not believe me, perhaps, but it is a solemn
fact that 1 have already coliected a bin
full of splendid diamonds, nearly as
large as your fist—more or less; among
them are overa hundred, larger thana
piece of head cheese.
L1TTING ON A Rait.—The other day
a peddler of cheap jewelry and other
wares in the pinchbeck line ,made a visit
to the mining camp over at Big Canon.
Now, there are sundry young bloods at
the Canen who invested largely in the
above mentioned jewelry, all of which
they bestowed upon certain fair damsels

Tue Fuayor or a SrRawBeRRY.—
A toper was invited bya friead_ to his
house to partake of a julep, of which he
was very fond. It was handed to him
in a silver goblet lined with gold. After
sipping a portion, he turned to his host,
and remarked that it was astonishing
what an addition a strawberry gave to
the flavor of ajulep. His friend replied
that he was very sorry that he did not
havea strawberry to putinit. “But,”
said the toper, “there is certainly one in
this.”
contrary, he insisted that he saw it distinctly, and drained the goblet to get
the berry, when he found that it was
only the reflection of his nose.
Upon his host's asserting the
Bakeo Kireexs.—Mrs. M——, a
neighbor of ours, returning quite cold
from afuneral the otherday, immediately built up a'cracking fire in her
kitchen stove. Soon the mewingof a
eat was heard, and the kind mistress
searched all about the room, upstairs
and below, and finally as the last thing,
opened the stove oven door, when out
rolled the old house cat and a litter of
kittens. During the absence of the
family, the room becoming cold, Madam
Tabby sought the warm oven as a cosy
apartment for herself and family, and

‘Yes sir, and you too.’
‘Can’t spare but the arm,’ replied the
old bachelor.
‘Then,’ returned she ‘I shan’t take
it, as my motto is, go the whole hog. or
nothing.’
EVERETT AND WasHINeTon.—The
amount already contributed to the
Mount Vernon Fund by Mr. Everett is
$60,893 81. About $1,000 more, accruing from the delivery of his “Washington,” was outstanding, but would shortly
be received and paid over by Mr.
Everett.
No Extra Session. Senator Gwin,
just prior to sailing from New York, received a telegram from-Washington statnig that there would be no extra session

Tue copr Navoivon.~When Napoleon I. was forming the Code Napoleon,
he astonished the Council of State by
the readiness with which he illustrated
any point in discussion by quoting whole
passages, extempore, fromthe Roman
civil law ; a subject thought entirely foreign to him, as his whole life had been
passed inthe camp. On being asked by
Treilhard how lé had acquired so familiar a knowledge of law, he replied:
“When I was a lieutenant, I was once
unjustly put under arrest. The small
reom assigned for my prison contained
no furniture but an oldchair and a cupboard ; in the latter was a ponderous volume, which proved to be a digest of the
Romanlaw. As I had neither paper,
pens, ink, nor pencil, you may éasily
imagine this book to have been a valuable prize to me. It was so bulky, and
the leaves were so covered by marginal
notes in manuscript, that had I been
confined a hundred years, I need never
have been idle. I was only ten days deprived of my liberty ; but on recovering
it, I was saturated with Justinian and the
decisions of the Roman legislators. It
was thus I acquired my knowledge of
the civil law.”
Origin oF LyNcH Law.—Lynch Law
takes its name from the stern and sumSelections for a newspaper.— Most people think the selection of suitable matter for a newspaper the easiest part of
the business How great anerror. It
is by all means the most difficult, To
look over hundreds of exchange papers
every week, from which to select enough
for one, especially when the question is
not what shall, but what shall not be
selected, is no easy task, If every person who reads a newspaper, could have
edited it we would liear less complaints.
Not unfrequently is it the case that an
editor locks over his exchange papers
for something interesting, and can abso
lutely find nothing. Every paper is
dryer than a contribution box; and yet
something must be had—his paper must
come out with something in it; and he
does the best hecan.
Toaneditor that has the least care
about what he selects, the writing he
has to do is the easiest part of the labor.
Every subscriber thinks the paper is
printed for iis own benefit, and if there
is nothing in it that suits him it must be
stopped—it is good for nothing.—Just
so many subscribersasan editor may
have, so many tastes he has to consult:
One wants something smart, another
something sound. One likes anecdotes,
and another wonders that a man of
sense will put such articles in his paper.
Something argumentative, and the Editor is a fool.
And so tetween them all you see the
poor fellow gets roughly handled. And
yet to ninety nine outof a hundred,
those things do oecur. They never re

den. The son of this Lynch Fitz-Stephen, having committed a foul murder,
his father, exercising his authority as
warden, had him arrested and brought
for trial before himself. The father, on
conviction, Brutus-like, seutenced his
son to death, and fearing a rescue from
the prison, caused him to be brought .
home and to be hanged before his own .
door.
The American system of Lynch Law
began in what is now known as the
Piedmont country of Virginia, which was
at the time the western frontier, and
having no law of its own, and being
seven milesfrom the nearest court of
criminal jurisdiction, controversies were .
constantly referred to men of sound .
judgement and impartiahty in the dis.
trict, whose decisions were regarded as .
final. Prominent among these was a
man whose awards exhibited se much
justice, judgement, and impartiality, .
that he was known throughout the .
country as Judge Lynch. In the conrse
of time criminals were brought before
him, and he awarded such puzishment
as he considered just and_ proper.
There were other persons, in different .
districts, who acted as arbitrators, aud
; Addams
who awarded punishments; but Judge
Lynch was the most conspicuovs, and
consequently the system took his name,
and was called Lynch Law.

WasutncTon tN ConGress.—The
following anecdote of the late Governor
Jay, one of the purest and most illustrious statesmen, is furnished by his son,
Judge Jay:
Shortly after the death of John Adams, I was sitting alone with my fathe ,
conversing about the American revolution ; suddenly he remarked, Ah! William, the history of that revolution will
never be knuwn. Nobody now alive
knows it but John Adams and myself.”
Surprised at such a declaration, I asked
him to what he referred? He briefly
replied, ** The proceedings of the old
Congress.” Again linquired, ‘ What
proceedings?” He answered, “Those
against Washington ; from first to last,
there was a most bitter party against
him.”
As the old Congress always sat with
efosed doors, the public knew no more
of what passed within than what it
deemed expedient to disclose.—[ Irving.
