NEVADA, CALIFORNIA, FRIDAY MORNING, MAY 13, 1859.
ANNIE LAURIE.
Professor Aytoun, in his “Ballads of
Scotland,” gives the following as the
original song of Annie Laurie:
Maxwelton banks are bonnie,
Where early fa’s the dew,
Where me and Annie Laurie
Made up the promise true.
Made up the promise true,
And for bonnie Annie Laurie
I'd lay down my head and die.
She’s backit like a peacock,
She’s breastit like a swan,
She’s jimp about the middle,
Her waist ye weel may span.
Her waist ye weel may span,
She hasa rolling eye,
And for bonnie Annie Laurie,
1'd lay down my head and die.

ELLA.
Te one more fair than aught beside,
To one who will soon be a bride,
I fill this eup with ruby wine,
And thank the donor and the vine.
Farewell, farewell, oh Ella fair,
Farewell to thee and thine;
Weeping, I fill this geblet up,
Weeping, I quaff the wine.
I mind me of a pleasant day
That glided like adream away,
when thou wert by my side, my love,
And vowed to be my bride, my love;
Farewell farewell, oh Ella fair,
Farewell to thee and thine;
Weeping, I fill this goblet up.
Weeping, I quaff the wine.
Oh, fal.er than the winds that blow
When autumno’s leaves are pale and low,
Are woman's vows and women’s heart;
But wine a solace may impart.
Farewell, farewell, oh Flla fair,
Farewell to thee and thine;
Dreaming, I fill this goblet up,
Dreaming, [ quaff the wine.
Death of the Last Surviror of the Wy
oming Massacre. — At ( Browntown,!
Wyalusing, March sd. Capt. Daniel
Brown, aged 88 years, 5 months and 26
days. ‘Thomas Brown, the father of
Daniel Brown, emigrated from Connectieut at an early period, and settled in
the Valley of Wyoming: he was the .
father of 2! children, of whom Daniel
was the last survivor, and two of whom,
Thomas and John, were killed at the
massacre. Patience Brown, the wife of
Thomas Brown Sr., escaped from the .
fort with six children, among whom was
Daniel, then atout eight years old.—
Thomas, the father, Leing a cripple,
could not keep up with the family, and
was overtaken by two Indiaus, who suf
fered him toescapein consequence of
being a cripple. After Gen. Suliivan’s
expedition, in 1779, against the Indians,
Thomas Brown with his family returned to Wyoming.
Wyalusing, near the place occupied by
the Moraviars in 1765, and called by
them Freidens-huetten, Daniel Brown
continned to live on the,same place first
settled by him until his death, and he is
supposed to be the last survivor of the
Wyoming massacre.
Tur Barser’s Pote.—The Barber.
Surgeon was formerly known by his .
Pole atthe door. ‘The pole was used
by the barber-scrgeon for the patient to
bandgrasp in bloodjlecit a Hilet or
aging being used for tying bs oe
i
.
When the pole was noi in use, the tape
was tied to it, and twisted round it ; and
thus both were hungup asa sign. At
length, iustead of hanging out the actual pole used in the oj era ion, a pole
was pamted with stripes round it, in imjtation of the real pule and its bandages
hence the barber's pole.
Lord Thurlo.y, in his speech for postponing the further reading of the Surgeons’ Incorporation Bill, July 17, 1797
stated, that, “by a statute still in force
the barbers and surgeons were each tv
use a pole.”
Even inour generation there have
been barbers in England who let blood
and drew teeth, and to the present day
the Spanish Sangrador cuts your hair
and lets your blood indifferently.
“Wen Greek Meets Geerk,” &e.
Fanny Fern, in the Ledger, said: “ If
half of the girls knew the previous life
of the men they marry, the list of old
maids would be wonderfully increased,”
and the Boston Post adds that if the
men could only look into the future life
of the women they marry, the number
of old bachelors would be greatly inereased—whereupon Fanny rejoins,
“does the editor of the Post speak from
his own experience ?”
The Post comes back :

WE EAT TOO MUCH.
The late Sydney Smith, a divine as
eminent for wit as piety, once wrote to
a friend that he had made au estimate
of the food he had eaten during the first
thirty years of lis life, and found that
he had in that period unnecessarily called on his patient stomach to digest meat
and vegetables enough to fill twentyseven wagons, at a cost of about twenty. five thousand dollars. He added, with
words of regret, that, had he been more
abstemions at the table, he would be
. worth in hard cash so many more dollars
than he was, and that by over-feeding
he had been guilty of a double injury—
firstly to himself, and secondly to society: for, had he eaten less, he would
have enjoyed better health, and others
would have that to sustain and nourish
theia which he had wantonly wasted.
kgr It isa remarkable fact that without genius or sagacitr or even finished
subtlety in its leaders the Democratic
party has practised upon and befooled
the country twice in immediate succession. It wouldseem as if the very incapacity and bungling of the Democracy favored its duplicity. People are
naturally slow to suspect that a fuo} is a
knave. “Go,” said Oxenstiern to his
son, “andsce with how little wisdom the
world is governed.”

Tue Rose.—From time immemorial,
the rose seems to bave been the especial
floral favorite with all eastern nations.
Indeed, to such an extent did the ancients carry their passion for the rose that
to triumphal car or column was_considered completely decked without it—no
bridal, nv funeral, nochristening, no
public ceremony was conducted, at
which the rose did not appear most conspicuous in the profuse array of flowers.
At Pere la Chaise, Paris, one may see
ofa Sabbath morning. in spring and
summer, hundreds of mourning relatives
scattering fresh-plucked roses upon the
green graves of their dead and kinared,
in all the sincerity of affection. In
Asia Minor, the rose i» coupled with the
nightingale in nearly all the older works
of painting and sculpture—thus associating the bird of melody with the blushing empress of flowers. In Persia,
where the rose is held in such supreme
estimation above the whole floral world
besides, no oceasion is deemed complete
without the adorning presence of the
rose. ‘he early Romans werein the
habit of purchasing roses, in vast quantities and at enormous expense, to make
wreaths on public and private occasions ;
and some of the imcre effeminate and
luxurious were even accustomed to sleep
on a bed of rose-leaves. In Portugal,
Spain, and several ofthe southern departments of France, the roseis the favorite flower at marriages and funerals,
and the presentation of a rose is an almost universal expression of love.
Pawnsroker’s Turse Batis.—
This sign was taken from that of the
[talian bankers, generally called Lombards, who were the first to open loanshops in England for the relief of temporary distress. The greatest of the
Lombards were the celebrated and eventually princely house of the Medici of .
Florence, They bore pills on their!
shield (andthose pills, as usual then,
were gilded), in allusion to the professional origin from whence they had derived the name of Medici; whence their
agents in England and other countries .
placed their armorial bearings over .
their doors and otheis adopted the sign. .
}
LevELs OF THE ATLANTIC AND Pact.
F c OchaNns.—The popular notion which
sad so long prevailed that the Atlantic
Qeeaa was many feet higher than the .
Pacific at the Isthmus of Panama,
been formally exploded. Colunel Totcarehas
ten has decided, after a series of
ful tidal observations taken at Panama
and Aspinwall Bay, and connectel by
recurate levels along the line of railroad,
that the mean height of the two oceans
is exactly the same; although, owing to
the difference in the rise of tide of both
places, there are, of course, times when
one of the oceans is higher or lower
than the other; but their mean level,
that isto say, their height at half-tide,
is now proved to be precisely the same.
Drptn TO WHICH THE OCEAN IS DISTURBED BY GALES.—The effect ofa gale
descends to a comparative small distance
below the surface ;_ the seais probably
tranquil at the depth of 200 or 300 feet ;
were it not so, the water would be turbid, and shell fish wouid be destroyed.
Any thing that dnninishes the friction
of the wiad smooths the surface of the .
sea ; for example, oil, or a small stream
of packed ice, which surpresses even a
swell. When the air is moist its attraction for water is diminished, and, consequently, so is the friction ; hence the sea
is not so rough in rainy as in dry weather.—SomeERvILLE's Physical Geography.
WEIGHT OF THE ATMOSPHERE.—
Pascal shows that ail the phenomena
and effects hitherto ascribed to the horror of a vacuum arise from the weight
of the mass of air; and after explaining
the variable pressure of the atmosphere
in different localities, and its different
states, and its rise of water in pumps, he
calculates that the whole mass of air
round our globe weighs 8,983,589,440.006,600,000 French pounds.
Tueory OF THE Pump,—Air though
comparatively light, is positively heavy,
having a weight of its own. A square
inch of it, carried up from the surface of
the earth to the top of the atmosphere,
is no Jess than 14lbs. in weight. It is
this weight of the atmosphere, 15 lbs. on
every square inch, that pushes water
into the ¥oid left’by the updrawn piston
of a pump; thereis, ofcourse, a limit
beyond which it cannot push the water
—namely, the point of height at which
the column of water in the pump tybe.is
exactly balanced=by the weight of the
atmosphere. Itis just a question of balance; 15 lbs. can support only 15 Ibs.,
—a thing which every body understands
nowadays, thanks to Galileo, Torricelli,
and Blaise Pascal, the seer,
paws prayers
the discovWinp or A Canon Batt.—The recent siege of Sebastopol has revived an
old controversy as to whether the wiad
of a cannon ball does injury to persons
near the line of passage of the ball, but
diametrically opposite opinions are propounded and illustrated by appeals to
the personal experiences of the writers.
Thus a writer in Notes and Queries states
that the siege of Sebastopol has proved
the impression, that the wind of a cannon shot does injury, to be a myth.
“There have been,” he says, “hundreds
of iustances where cannon-shot have
grazed the clothing and person of men,
doing no serious injury.” The writer
was himself grazed by a forty-two-pound
shot fired from the Gordon Battery, but
the wind of the shot did noinjury. On
the other hand another writer states,
“An officer of the French army, sent to
make a reconnoissance in the neighborhood of Sebastopol, was knocked down,
not by a cannon-ball itself, but by the
wind of it, asthe ball passed close to
him. The commotion produced was so
intense that the tongue of the officer
instantly contracted, so that he could
not either put it out of his mouth or ar
ticulate a word. Subsequently, by the
aid of electricity. he recovered his
speech.”
It has been suggested that the impression that an injury is done by the
wind of a cannon-ball may be accounted
for by the statement of Baron Larrey in
his Clinique Chirurgicale (Paris, 1829),
contirmed by the eminent army surgeon,
Samuel Cooper, in his Elements of Surgery that a cannon-ball, especially when
nearly spent, frequently strikes the surface of the body or a liinb obliquely, and
is reflectea without breaking the skin.
Other writers make similar statements. .
At the battle of Marston Moor, Crom
well’s head was nearly grazed by a cannon ball, but we hear nothing of the
wind.

this evening?”
ATTAR OF Roses.—The rose-water of
Kashmir is surprisingly fine ; but there
is nothing extraordinary in the way it is
made. The attar is procured from treb.
ly-distilled rose-water, which is boiled .
and poured into abasin over night.
Whilst the rose-water is still hot, the
basin is placed two-thirds deep in a running stream, and inthe morning the
attar appears like oil on the surface of
the water, and is carefully scraped off
with a blade of grass bent in the shape
ofa Y. Itissaidthat a small bottle of
attar is the produce of 700 or S00 pounds
of rose-leaves.—ViIGNE’S Travels.
Steep oF Arctic PLantrs.—Mr.
Seeman, the naturalist of Kellett’s Arctic expedition, mentions a curious fact
respecting the condition of the vegetable world during the long day of the
Arctic summer. Although the sun never sets while it lasts, plants make no
mistake atout the time, when, if it be
not night, it ought to be; but regularly
as the evening hours approach and when
a midnight sun is several degrees above
the horizon, droop their leaves and
sleep even as they do in more favored
climes.
