The whole number of species in earth nd sea cannot be less than four or five hunred thousand. These are ofall sizes, from the invisible forestsin a bit of moldiness, to the towering trees of Malibar, 50 feet in ciroumference, and the bayans whose shoots cover s circumference of five acres. Each of these has a een system of vessels for the circulation of its juices. Some trees have leaves harrow and short; others—as the talipat of Ceylon—have leaves so large that one of them can shelter 15 or 20 men, Some exuviate their leaves annually, as a whole robe, leaving the tree nude, its bare stem (owering aloof, and ita branches spreading themselves uncovered in the sky ; while the leaves of others drop off one by one, new ones are constantly grewiog in place of the dismembered ones, and the tree reing its perpetual verdure, “There have actually been ascertained, in the animal Bingdom, about 60,000 species of living creatures, ere are 600 apecies of mammalia —those that suckle their tae —the most of which are quadrapeds. O birds there are 4,000 species ; of fishes, 3,000; of reptiles, 700 ; and of insects, 45,000 species. Besides these there are 3,000 species of shell fish, and not less than eighty or one hundred thousand species of animal cules invisible to the nakedeye, . . Some forms of life require a moist atmosphere, othersadry one. A blue water lilly grows in the canals of Alexandria, which, when the water evaporates from the beds of the eanals, it again grows and blossoms, And some ot the lowest animals may be completely dried and kept io this state for any length of time; but when they are again moistened they resume the functions of life. Some plants are adapted only to particular climates ; others grow in different climates; but they do not flourieh equally well in these. Asa tree, which, in the Southern States attain a height of one hundred feet, at Great Salt Lake, the northern limit at which it is found, becomes dwarfed to a shrub of onl 5 feet high. Life, both vegetable and sahnal, is indefinitely modified; buat in all cases its development is only under these conditions to which it is taf adapted. “How manifold are thy works ; OGod! in wisdom hast thou made them all!’ ‘ Motual ‘‘Atrentions.’’—The Detroit papers receutly related an amusing instance of reciprocal affection which is pretty, if true, and as Jerrold said to Bourcicault, prettier if not true. In that city lives a gentleman, by no means the only one—the posseszor of ap amiable wife who had the misfortune a short time since to see her prostrated on a bed of sickness, -which, as appearance indicated, was about to make an end of her. He way excessively grieved at the proepert, and out of pure desire to beemployed o some labor of Jove as an earnest of bis affection he posted off to the cemetery and bought a lot, set the mechanics and burserymen at work, and shortly had so ebarming a nook fitted up that it would bave been a pleasure to any sensible person to be buried in it, Not so with the lady, however. She got well and before the roses budded, which were to have waved over her grave, the lillies had departed from her cheeks, The husband, a little abashed at his over-tempered zeal, said not a word about the lot in the cemetery, bat by somu means she heard of it. It is not pleasant to have such close reminders of one’s future existence, and the lady felt not a little vexed at the extensive preparations which her beloved had made to get her under ground. She strictly followed bis example, and kept het own counsel, but by way of retaliation posted off to the jeweler’s, and ordered an elegant silver coffin-plate, on which she had inscribed the the name of her husband, and an appropriate epitaph, leaving blanke for his age and date of death, This,the astonished Benedict found on his bureau one morning when he got up. He saw the joke at the eame time that e heard the suppressed laugh of the spouse from under the bedclothes. The plate is now stowed away in the lady’s writing desk, asa standing offset to the flowery nook in the old cemetery. Stvouiar Law Surr.—In the New York Law Reports we find the particulars of a singular suit brought by a young lady to compel her guardian to disclose to her the hames of her parents, and other partioulars of her early hietory. By her story, it appears that she has been brought up by @ gentleman of wealth and respectability, under the impression that she was entitled to some of his property; but now, she being nineteen years of age, he has! notified her that she must provide for herself, refuses to give her any information as to her parentage, and denies that she has any property. He is described as occupying a good social position, and she as possessing considerable personal attractions. _ Curtous Sratisties.—An eminent French statician states that the land and naval forces of the European armies number 2,800,000 sound, picked men, in the prime of their productive: strength. The annual outlay required to keep up their armies and the material of war is over $400,000,000, not including the value of land or buildings occupied by fortifications, arsenals, hospitals, foundaries schools, etc., moderately . estimated at $3,800,000, on which, at 4 per eent. interest, the yearly expense is more than $150,000,000. To this add the value of the labor that . ' these mea would productively perform, which amounts io0.more than $156,000,000, and we have an anoual war expense paid by European producers of nearly $800,000,000. ' A party pieagrie seekers from the Yo Semite Valley arrived at Stockton a few days since. They report an abundance of game in the mountains, the streams running full of trout, and the weather every way favorable for a delightful trip to the Falls. =~ SrasonaBie Apvics.—"Like the gnarled.oak that has withetood the dloruib nnd thaaderbolte of centuries, man himself begins to die at the extremities.

Pisponts Rerusep to. U. S. Orricers.—Private letters from Europe state that the American officers, who had been permitted by the United States to go to the seat of war in order to gain military insight into war tactics, by observation of the contending powérs, have been refused pasports to travel thither. They consequently returned to England, to, await. further. diplomatic consideration of the matter and causes of objection. ~ ' ‘Tum St. Louis Republican, of July 21sf, notices the death of Mrs. Margaret "Andersow} in the 66th year of her age, who has resided all her life in that city: ‘She‘saw St.’ Louis when it contained only a few hundred‘inhabtants, and those of a most primitive character, and lived to see it the abode of one hundr eighty thousand and, the seat of wealth, refinement and luxury, COUNTY SCRIP, “PURCHASED AT, THE Highest Market Rates, by J.C.

The invention consists of forcing Quicksilver into blocks of wood, which are used as false bottoms for sluices, thereby giving a Quicksilver surfuce until the blocks are worn out. As the blocks are gradually worn by the gravel, a fresh supply of Quicksilver is constantly exposed, ready to amalgamate the gold that comes in contact with them, The machines for forcing Quicksilver into the blocks, are of simple construetion, and durable, One man can press n one hundred pounds of Quicksilver in a day, which will give a hundred feet of Quicksilver surface, and the process is easily learned. The shop cost of the machines, are from $14 to $20, according to the size. The following letters from practial Miners at Michigan Bluffs, Placer County, where the PATENT RIFFLES were first introduced, will show the estimation in which they are held by those who have used them :— MICHIGAN BLUFFS, March 28th 1859. Mr. Briggs, Sir :—I1 have used your Patent Quicksilver Block Riffles, and cnnsider them the best method for saving fine gold I have ever used, I used them on the American River this last summer, and found that by using them, I could save at least one-fourth more gold, than by any other Rifles now in use. Hoping that your Riflles will be extensively introduced throughout the State, and mect with the success they deserve, I remain vours truly, GEORGE E, BENNET. MicuiGAN Buvrrs, April 10th 1859. Mr. Briggs, Sir :—I have used your Patent Amalgamating Rifle, and am satisfied that itis a good invention ; we have cleaned up more, and finer gold, than we ever did before if the same length of time, much wash running in the gulch as there will be by and by, as the boys have not all commenced washing pay dirt yet.

SPENCE, Druggist & Apothecary, Mainstreet, Nevada‘ There has not been asDEMOCRATIC PLATFORM. ved That wwe re-affirm the principles set forth in a eli Platform, and rocognize it as an authoritative exposition-of the Democratic creed, ‘ , That in order to lag La ge . of the Union, and prevent the frequen ursage sectional agitation, it is essential that the people of the Territories should legislate or omit to legislate upon the subject of slavery, as well as upon other matters of domestic policy, according to their own will, without any interference, direct or indirect, on the part of either Conthe Executive. Ore. dacoclved, That the right of the people of the Territories to form all their domestic institutions in their own way, is absolute and complete, and that we are unalterably opposed to any interference with such right, either by the Legislative or Exective departments of the General by ag That the doctrine of intervention by Congress to establish a slave code for the Territeries, assumed by the Administration adherents, is a gross departure from the principles of the true Democracy, as laid down in the Platform made at Cincinnati, and we repudiate it as the heresy of a faction and condemn it as an outrage upon the great charter of American Liberty. 5. Resolved, That the Administration of Jas. Buchanan, by its outrages upon the rights of the people of Kansas, its unrelenting proscription of tried and worthy Democrate for the olfense of adhering to Democratic principles, its constant violation of the pledges which brought it into life, its attempts to render the Legislative subject to the Executive Department, and its gross extravagance, mismanagement and corruption, has forfeited the respect and lost the confidence of the American people. ; 6. Resolved, That the Chief Executive of the nation has broken his pledges to the people of the State of California in regard to the I acific Railroad, which pledges were announced in his ill-timed letter of 1856, two weeks previous to the election in this State, and that we condemn the Administration for its refusal to place the Central Overland mail on the same footing as to compensation, &c., as the Southern route. ; 7. Resolved, That the immediate construction of the Pacific Railroad ought to be encouraged by the Federal and State Governments by all means in their power, and that, meanwhile, the Mail service by the Overland routesshould be sustained and increased. 8. Resolved, That our State Judiciary system needs a thorough and complete revision, and that the Constitutiot should be so. changed as to increase the number of Judges of the Supreme Court, and insure a speedy, honest and faithful administration of Justice. 9. Resolved, That in the opinion of this Convention, Congress should enact a law to protect actual bona fide settlers upon the public lands in their just rights. 10. Resolved, That we, as a Convention representing the true Democracy of California, adhere with unfaltering firmness to the principles of Democracy, as taught by Thomas Jefferson, and which guided the counsels of the immortal Jackson. 11. Resolved, That when this Convention adjourn, its members adjourn to meet, as citizens, at the polls in the ides of September, and that by our labors and our voices there we show to the world that the freeman of California are unbought by Federal patronage, are unawed by Federal power, and will stand by the sacred principles of Iemocracy, in defiance of treacherous Presidents and their Cabinets. ‘

Since the first introduction of this Medicine, nnmerous fmitations have sprung into existence, founding their claims te the confidence of the community on the curative powers eontairied fn Sarsaparilla Root, the great reputation and extended ase of which has been mainly attributable to the many wonderful cures effected by the Use of this Preparation. While Sarsaparilla Root forms an important part of its combination, it is, at the same time, compounded with other vegetable remedies of great power, andit is on the eculiar combination and scientifle manner of its i. ion, that its remarkable success in the cure of disease depends, Other preparations imitate it in the style of putting up, and in bearing the name of one of its ingredients, and heré ends their resemblance to it.
