FIRST USE OF MAHOGANT—Dr. Gibbons, an eminent physician in the latter end of the seventeenth century, had a brother, a sea c.-tptain, who was the first that brought from the West lndias some mahogany logs for ballast. The Docior was then building him a house in Convent Garden, and his brother, the sea captnin, thoug'ht, b«y might W OT service to him but the carpenters found "tne wood tob linrd for their *ool.«, it was laid aside as useless. ^ISoon after Mr. Gibbons wanted a candle-box, and got a cabinet maker to make it out of the useless wood lying in the garden. The box was made and the doctor was so pleased with it, that he got the cabinet maker to make him a bureau of it, and the firte color and polish of it induced him to invite a great number of his friends to see It and utrtong them the Ducheiss of Buckingham. Her grace begged the Doctor for some of the wood, and got Wollaston, the cabinet-maker, to make her a bureau also, on which tbo fame of mohogony and Woliaston were much raised an.d it.bejcame the rage for grand fur* n]tur^, J^o other wood exceeds it yet.

THE WIT OF A GEHMAM LAWTER.— There are many strangerrfs in war, and as many, it may be wcll«aid,in love or law. W% have heiMrd often tftnes how the stratagems of love have outwitted sparental vigileneer bot we never heard of a omo where law so effaaiuaily aided Hymen related in a Bavarian journal. The translation may not be so good as Dr.*Kraist^r might give, but runs to the effect that a young man of Nurembur^^ who had no fortune requested a Wwyer.a friend of his, to reedmhiend tflm to a family where Was a dally vlsho^ and where was a hnridsome dougOier \*W was to bear a large fortune. The lawyer agreed but the father of the young lady who loved money, immediately asked what property the young man had. The lawyer said did not know, but he would enquire. The next time he saw his youbgfrlend, he asked him If he had any property at alh ••No," replied he. ••Well" said the lawyer, "would you puffer any on« to cut off your nose if he would give you twenty thousand dollars for it. •'Not" for the world 11."n 44Tis well" replied the lawyer* Mltiad a reason for asking."

The next time be saw the jrirl's father he said "I have inquired about this majn circurhstances. Me has indeed, no ready money but he has a jewel, for which to my knowledge, he has been offered and refused twenty thousand dollars."

This induced the old father to consent to the marriage which accordingly took place though it is said in the journal he often shook his begd when iie^tbought of the jewel. j. 1 •im www

*Yt' is related thatChateaubrand, on returning from his Eastern travels, was asked if he eouid assign a reason why the woman of the JeWish race were-so much handsomer than the men, when he gave tbe following one: "Jewesses," he said,"have escaped tbe curse which alighted upon their fathers, husbands and 60ns. Not a Jewess was to be seen amongst the crowd of priests and rab ble who inisulted the Son of God, scourged him, crowned him with thorns, and subject ed him to infamy and the agony of tbe cross. The women of Judea believed in the Saviour, and assisted and soofhed him under affliction. A woman of Bethany poored on his head precious ointment, which she kept in., yases of alabaster. The sinner annointqd his feet with perfumed oil and wipftd them with her hair. Christ, on his parti extended mercy to the Jewesses. He raised from the dead the son of the widow of Nain, and Martha's brother Lazarus. He cured Simon's brother-in-law and the woman wbo touched the hem of his garment. To tjie Samaritan woman he \Ms a spring of living water, and a compassionate yidge to the woman in adultery. The daughters of Jarusalem wept over him the holy women accompanied him to Calvary brought him balm and spices and weeping, sought him at the sepulcher. 'Woman, why weepest thou!*' His first appearance after the resurrection was to Mary Magdalene.— He said to her, 'Mary!' At the 'sound of his voice Mary Magdalene's eyes were opened, and she answered 'Master.' The reflection of sonie beautifal ray must have rested on the brow of Jewesses." il hsT I

Positively,a man may become nervouslshd melancholy when dead leaves make their circuit around him wheresoever he moves. Every body seems to shrink 'from and shun them. No one sweeps them away no one gathers them up. There they lie, meeting and mocking humanity at every turn, leering up from their hiding places, ever with sere and yellow countenances meeting one's eye bow mnc.h soever averted and rustling in one's ear the melancholy refrain.

How TO TREAT A RATTLESNAKE.—Our guide tnld us he was camping out with an old Indian it was mid»day, and he was lying on the ground whilst the old chief was reclining with his back against a tree, when suddenly, to his horror, he saw the rattlesnake wiggle itself deliberItely across the old chief's naked body The snake seemed to enjoy the warmth of i», r»m«rfning for some time on the Indian's stomach. The chisf himself was watchting it all the time, but dared not move an inch, knowing if he did so the snake would strike him. At length without moving a muscle, he made a peculiar hissing noise, and the snake, after lifting up his head and listening, gli* ded away.—Sulivan's Travels in America.

WHAT IS TO BE POAE WITH THE GOLD!— By the arrivals from California gold keeps flowing in.like a steady stream,to the Atlantic States. Wehave'the same accounts from Austrulia. Some of the ships which arrive ed in J^ondon recently, brought from a million to twb millions of dollars worth of precious metal^^Allowing this great yield of gold to pour into tlie markets of America and Europe for some years to come, it must effect the currency in a most sensible manner. As yet things seem to flow on in the usual course, so far as the old standard value of tbe gold is concerned, and it is to be hoped that whatever change takes place, it Will not be sudden, but gradual and temperate, in order that no revulsion in any branch of business maybe Caused thereby. It is the duty of bankers and national financiers to look this matter firmly in the face, and davise measures, if they can, for the steady and regular procession of kinds of business dependant upon the financial operations of banking firms.—-Scientific Americantehpvl rxrxxi"1-'L"''""L"u"""r"

AN IRISH LETTER.—The following is going the rounds of the newspapers, purporting to have been written by an Irishman to his son at school. There can be no question but it is genuine—none but an Irishman could have written it:''

In the mountains of Tyrol, hundreds of women and children come out, at tea time and sing their national songs, until they hear their husbands, fathers, and brothers arswer them from the hills on their return home.
