It was ao funny to hear her little playrnabw infinite for “ Sister Robinson ” exactly its tire old ladies ,in the village inquired for Sinter Sniftin- an old lady who lived next door, ami who ronld not bear the, right of children.

One <|ay the dear little thing ventured over into Stater Sniffin'# Iw k ganien. She crept throngh a hole sin the fence and trotted away, ringing to benxdf. It was Saturday. There was no #el»«xtl, and her bmtluww were playing in the yard, and oh! how providential this was, for presently they heard a scream.

In one comer of the garden was a w«H, the curb Mom- of whkdi was wi n with the ground, and tlie water in- it only a few inrihee below. Not a board or protivtiou of any kind .was placet! over the month of it, for Sifter Sniffin had no children to fall into it. and alw* kuew that Jemima Ann hativl water worse than she did dogs. The edge <»f tbw enrb was overgrown with high gnsH, . and poor little Bixler, singing and dancing throngh the gardea, looking up .at the birds, who tswsned to be playing tag in the air, had suddenly plunged into the add, cruel water. fSiariey knew of thia well, and be a) ; most flsw there. Ho was only just in time. One tmy baud was dimly seen below the surface of the wMer, slowly sinking for the last time.

With dtwpend* effort be -drew her up t»E bur golden b««d roar to U*e surface, bnt he was not strong em*ngh to lift her out atone, ami a wild «y of “ Ob, come, eome t aba is drowning”’ brought the other boys flying trim tile enrnero and.brtshea, where had bMSt hnntmg and calling for Witha fc«M ing in themxelvet—ti*»y drew her out of

Now a little gasping moan, a sobbing sort of righ, m they laid-her down on •tlie sofa and- called atoud for their mother, made them burst out crying with mingled sorrow and joy, for she was not dead—oh, no, no, she was not dead! ]Xar tittle wee lamb! In » few mo meuts she opened lier eyes and smiled on her mother and brothers, who could liardly be penmaded to leave the room while warm dry clothes were putiqxm her; and when they were agsyi admitted every one of them must rub her hanils and little white feet—one apiece, as they said—and kins her again nnd again; and when she wasqnito recovered, they knelt down with their mother, and thanked ' God tlmt he hml sent them to rave little Sister from drowning in that dark and j awful well.

OPIVM-SMOKTNG. Horror* of thr Chinr*r OfAom Ihiu-Tlu Bomr of the l.rprr. Chinose quarter of San Francisco, gives tire following account of Iris visit to tlie opium dens of tlie Celestials:« It was proposal that we should next go into the opium dens. It was probably 10 o’clock,- or pej h.ips half an hour later. Tlie first we went to was new the theater on Diqwnt street, I think. It was a place to be remcmliercd. It was a room about six feet by ten, the wiling being not more than six or seven feet from tire floor. There w.w not a window in the room, and the (ffitfanee was tliSteiigh a natrow door, tfcwn a short flight of rottefi stairs. Tire room itself s was foul to a degree I could liardly imagine poerific. The floor was damp and slippery. Tlie ceiling and walls were covered with a slimy mold. Tlie only lights were from disgusting oil cups, with wicks floating in them. The proprietor of the place seemed to be his own best Customer. He lay on a lower bunk, with Iris head propped .up with a pillow reeking in filth ami swarming with vermin. “ I have brought,” said Anderson, addressing him, “some Eastern gentlemen to see you.” A Cliimunnu is naturally hospitable and pbltte, and although that night we went into the wx>rst places that human Ireings ever iidmbited, there •was not a surly word or an annoyed expression from s their occupants. The keeix'r of the opium den was half gone with the delicious intoxication. His eyes were sunken and Indf cloeed, but they indicated a feeling of supreme Hiss. His mouth was op< n, disclosing his yellow, opium stained teeth, but there was ta l<N>k of hapirincxs even there. His eheeks were sallow and sunken, and I amid not help thinking that on them was the same mold that «uvt»> 4 thefloor and the <*‘siling. Alxmt him, on his dirty amcli, w-cre several Wttlo white jars of opium, holding alsmt tiros- thimblesfnl, nnd several opium pijx's; there w-eh* also two or three lamps, unlighted. Tlnw were for etistomere as they came in. j!lrere wi re probably nine imnks, plae. -l one above auother on tlrov sides of tire room, and <wh one was occupied ’ by Chinamen mon* less under the influence of opium. Two or three wsre doubUem insensible, for their lumps had ' Iw’en removed and their fripes bad fallen from their li|*. ' The pipe in which the Chinese smoke opium has a stem probably two feet long, made of cum-such ascertain fishing r<xls are ms«in of; alxmt twenty inches from the mouthpi«>ce, which is an inch in diameter, is the Ixiwl. -This appears to i lie made of lio.xwood, and is not unlike a --mall low coffee cup, large at the top nud small at the bottom, with h tight cover fitting in it. In the center of this . cover is a small hole. The opium is not . put in the pipe, as might be siqqxised, but in n little wad on the top of the cover over the hole. The smoker takes i a hmg needle and on tbc end of it griliers from the little jriria pi<ric of opium Hie size of a lx-:m. This he holds ; over tlie lamp, and thus melts and burns it until it is of the proper consistency, j Then he places it ovit the hole in tlie cover of the pipe, and with this needle ' punches a hole through it, which joins the h<>le in the cover.. Then he lights it and smokes away. When it is gone I jhe repeats the pnxxws.. I smoked one [ pijM'ful of opium, but tire fumes and j Isnsons of the place luul made me iriM.‘iiribie to other iiifluenws, and 1 Could not understand where the fascination Mas?''The smoke of the opium in this ; den hung like a thresh nod shadow over our heads and all alsmt us. The atmosphere was stimulating if it was not intoxicating, and withal it was not nnplcas ing. Other sentis relx'llal at tire situs tion. The beds, one above anotiier with scarcely two feet between them, were flirty beyond dcecription. 'lire I Chinamen tx-cupying them, vrijli one exa’ption, a tobacco, dealer wh<\ had just la-gun to indulge in tire were nearly as dirty as the beds they <recupi«sl. Only erne or two t<x»k lire I slightest notice of us. The others smoked away as though tlrey had only a moment ; between the presi nt life and eternity. We stayed in this den nearly half ari hour ■ observing the different smokers, and I conld not Irelp confrxsting the luq'pincre they felt tliat night witli tfie misery tliat would overtake them iu tire moruiug. They doubtless bear tire depreerion of tqnrita and the paine during the flay in 1 the hop»‘, indeed the certainty, of the joys tliat await them at night. The oilier opium deus we virited, half a dtrzen in numlxT, were all more' , wretched than tire first We saw plao* not eight feet lupmre where there were ' twenty people, lying one above anotiber,. ’ two or three in a bunk, and iu ixure on ‘ tire floor. j From.tire opium ileus we w. nt into the i most wretched of tbeChimwt’ quartern.

The asseta in Um failures of 1874 were but £5,431,-

RJ.T.STOirS HOSPIT.tIITY. | W. C. Ralston’s princely hospitality, says a correspondent, was notorious the world < over. Whenever a gentleman from abroad presented letters of intro- ‘ duction, or was introduced by a friend, ( it was his custom to invite him to visit him at his elegant country mansion at j San Mateo, twenty-six miles from San Francisco. • If the invitation was accept- , cd, Mr. Ralston at once handed his fu- | ture guest a railroad ticket, and when he > arrived at the depot of his destination, a splendid carriage was in waiting to con- 1 vey him to Mr. Ralston’s residence. On ] one occasion, a gentleman all unused to California hospitality offered to pay Rai- i • ston for tlie ticket, whereupon the great 1 financier became highly indignant His , favorite days for entertaining guests were Saturday and Sunday. Ou Sunday his 1 four-horse chariot was flying over the 1 1 •surrounding country, rejuveying visitors ■ to tlie principal places of interest. At a > seasonable hour on Sunday night, after seeing tluit his guests were placed on goixl terms with each other, he would ■ place one portion of the mansion at their i disposal, and,, informing them :ra he had ■ to drive to the city in the morning he must necessarily start early, would bid them good-night and retire, leaving them to amuse themselves according to their i various tastes and inclinations. His reo- ■ son for driving to and from the city , daily, a distance ot fifty-two miles, was that it Ix'nefibtl his health, a-A it was the ! only relief he enjoyed from the cares of i i a mammoth business. Instead of spend- U I. ing two or three months annually in [ ■ traveling abroad, he took, by the advice | of his physician, daily excfcise in this way.
