A Hath (Me.) correspondent -rrritoa in
ha following amating and interesting way
to a Boston paper: I once stopped t the
liouse of a friend. It wai desirable that
ws ihoulJ take an eiidy train next morn
ing, and, notwithstanding the aeeuranee.
of the servant that we should ba called
tright and ew! I felt anxious cn retir
ing lest we tkouM not rise in time. I
therefore tet myaeif to devii-ing an alarm.
The oidy "bow of operation" was ray
watch. This I opened the face of, ex
posing the hinds, and laid tie back on the
toilet table. The hour-hand only was
available to produce the action that
pbould give tl.e alarm, the minute4iRBJ
having many revolutions to make fire the
appointed hour. A b!aJe at each end of
ray pot ket-mfe waa opened, and the han
dle supported on three pennies (pirr-d one
on the top of the other), so that it should
be balanceJ, and aX the same time havo
the blades on n Una with the face, ne
blade resting lightly on the figure 4
the minut-a band pa??in over it in its
revolution. The ol ject of this arrange
ment was to causa the hour band, on ar
riving at tbe hour cf 4, to come in eon
tact with tbe blade ; and the knife being
balanced, the hand would have aulTiciant
power to move it on its pivot (the pen-,
niea), the opposite etad of tbo knife, of
cour?e, having a reverse motion.
I next drove n pin into the handle of
our hair-brush, and balance it on the edfre
id" tho table, jtwt so that it would topple
over were cot the end cf the pin in it
held down gently by tbe head of tbe pin
coming under tlvs tab'.o at tbe knife oppo
fito tbe watch. I previously tied one
end of try tundltcrehief to tbe handla of
the brush ; tlie other end I now secured
f the comb, with wLich I propped up
the heavy lid of a fancy box that sat ou
the table leaving soma black" between
the brut-h and comb.
The mucbino was now "ect," and the
expectid or ration was this : Tbo hour
hind fehouid push tbe blade resting on the
fl gure four ; and the other j-Lule would
have a correppon ling motion nnd fclip off
the bead of the pin in tbo brush-band! ;
this won'd allow tbe brush Lalancod on
the edjs of tbe table to tilt and fall, tbe
slack ia tbo handkerchief allowing it to
acquire entlicic--.it momentum in falling to
pull out the comb supporting the heavy
lid of tbe fancy box, which bhould fall
'with a loud noise." These things real
ly came to pasa at the appointed hour,
r.nd wo were aroused from our slumbers
io time to take tbo early train, and went
on our way rejoicing.
TTUAT THAT BELLI
That thare is n sleepless Providence
watcbirg over all the affairs of mm, and
cftt'ti by special agencies, bringing to
ib as in the (lash of a mcm?nt, the
crimes which they commit, find additional
confirmation in an event which baa re
cently occurred in Enfield, Conn., and
which merits a mora pormaoent record
than a more passing thought. A young
man belonging to one of our incsi respect
able families, but who, from his irreguh r
habits, had been strongly su?peeted of be
ing guilty of criminal offunce, and ben
once under arrest for passing counterfeit
currency, and escaped by forfeiting his
bonds, on Sunday night, a few weks
since, broke into a store at flazardville,
and loaded a wagon, which be had pre
viously ktokn and druwn to the door, with
various merchandise. Ho then entered
a Mahle, and attempted to lead out a val
cablo hcrso of ood by tbo man from whom
bo bad stolen the goods, LiteniKng to bars
ness it to tla wagon, and makf oif with
fcis booty iu the stillnefs of tba tight,
when he thought no eye could see him and
o ear bear him. Just at that moment,
however, the bell from the village church
tower soucded cut an alarm loud and
clear upon tie night air, startling the in
habitants from their slumbers, who, sup
posing it to be a fire alarm, rushed into
ttie street, and caught the tLicf with bis
plunder, before be bad time to escape from
the village.
Tbe ringing of that bell, however, was
a mastery. But upon inquiry, it was as
certained that the sexton, ia tinging the
boll for the service the day previous, had
by n seeming accident so turned it up and
s.t it, that he could not poll it down with
tbe rope, and not having a koy to tho bel
fry door, he was obliged to let the be!l
remain in (bat position. Just in time to
detect that youthful criminal it camo down
without human help, ai.d sounded that
midnight alarm. After his arrest, goods
were fouud in Lre poeseggion, which were
taken from i store Li Thompronvilla a
short time pievioustly ; and he confessed
that with tba aid of an accomplice, he had
broken into it and stolen several hundred
dollars woi th of merchandise The owcer
of these goods had formerly employed him
as a tleik iu hia stora 'Ihus tbe ringing
of that bell, without bumnn bunds, bro't
several criminal offenders to light, and
arrested one in his dishonest career.

As Extkaoriinakt Ride. The report
of an extraordinary riJu has come in the in
telligence from Califcraia. A ycu&g rasa
named Mowry Let that ha would ride three
hundred miles in fifteen hours. The wager
was $2,000 to $2,500 on Mowry. For sev
eral days he trained for bis ride. lie had
thirty hortes taken to the Park SUblea, and
est Suuday moraing, at twenty minutes bo
fore five, he began his rids on his own hor?,
which be rode four timea around tho track.
The rider r:ghd about 160 pounds. He
carried a canteen filled with water, and a
small pouch coctaiuiug a few sandwlehes.
When the signal was given the Lardy rider
gave rem and was off. The horse broke into
the gallop so Common to California horses,
and continued it until it went around foar
times, when the rider changed it for a second.
Botae of the horses were ridden oaly once
round the track, but nearly all of tbbia were
pushed around tLree time,".
During the firt six hours Mr. Mowry
would dicmount and uouat without aid, but
In th after part of the day he wan assisted
by pen-ons retained for the purpose. At the
end of '200 miles a placard was disped
from the jud'a stand stating that the dis
tance had trffcu accomplished in tight hours
two minutes and forty-eight seconds, ashort
m tiiis than It had vr bee accomplished
Those who bad waccred their money
against Mowry felt convinced that Le cu.d
nut bold out, for, notwithstanding that b
hail accnm nlisbod 200 miles, and kad yet
in.
ntarly seven hour to spare, they argued that
everv hour bo remained iu tbe saddle was
more fatiguing to him now than two hcurs
at the begioniu. The rider was withdrawn
to a convenient place, and given a i-alb.
which greatly refrwhed him; afterward h
an-jrtcd hi horxe and r.ide awny as frai.y s
if he was juU beginning. This enlivened
hia friends, who, however, nover for a mo,
cent ch-ulUd his ability to accompli the
task. Finally, at eleven minute before
eian oYlotk, tbe rider was completed, the
tire hundred miles bad be ridden, and

Not one in ten thousand, pcrhapp, Mr.

to amuse his pupils by saying; that in one

tribe ; upon which be moved b;.3 ears very
rapidly backward and forward. And Albi-
us. the ce'ebraied anatomist, had the Earue
power, which is performed by little imi.-cles,
not eeen. Mr. tliyd.n tried it on"e in
painting, with great fcct. In bis picture c
Macbeth. paiDting for hir Georgfl leaua:ont,
when the Thane was listening in horror be
fore committing the murder, the painter
ventured to prcus tbe ears firward, like an
animal in fright, to give an idea of trying to
catch tbo nearest sound. It was very ef
fective, and increased amazingly tl.a terror
of the sceue. without tbo spectators being
aware of tbe reason.
White Wash. As the K?ason ia near at
hand for white-washing buildings, fences,
8rc. we taks this opportunity to inform our
readers that they can make a superior white
wash pa'nt, by taking two quarts of kim
med milk, eight ounces tf freshly slaked
lime, Bix onnces of lioeed oil. two ounces cf
white burgundy pitch, and three pound of
Spanish white. The lime mutt be slaked
in water espied to the air, m'xd in about
one-fourth the milk. Th- ;! (in which the
pitch h3 previoudy d:s3oveu) must be ad
dd a lit t'e at a time. Then add the rest of
the mhk, and afterwards the Spanish white.
Color it to suit, if you do not prefer a whi'e
paint) with Ppaaish brown to make a pink ;
with Spanish brown and finely pulverized
clay, to make a stone c d'r ; with yellow
ochre or chrome, to make a yellow co'or.
and so on.
Pi r.psTUAL Paste. A perpetual paste
may be made by dissolving an ounce of alum
in a quart of warm water. When cold, add
a much iljnr as will make it the comlitericy
of cre3m ; then stir into it hslf a teaspovnfi 1
of powdered rosin, and two or three cloves.
Boll it to a consistency, stirring all the time.
It will keep for twelve months, and when

CENTRAL PACIFIC HAILSOAD ESMPT
FIRST MORTGAGE BONDS.
This preat ecterpice is approaching comple
tion with a rapidity that astonishes the world.
Over tiiteen (15'. 0) miles have been built by
two (2) powerful companies: the Union Pa
cific Itailroatl, beginning nt Omaha, building
west, and the Central Pacific Railroad, begin
ning at Sacramento, and building east, until
the two roads sh 11 meet. Less than two hun
dred nr.d fifty miles remain fo be built. The
greater part of the interval is now graded, and
it is reasonably expected that the through
connection betwecm San Francisco aud New
York will be completed by July I.
As the amount of Government aid given to
each is dependent upon the length of road each
shall buildT both coropanics are prompted to
great efforts to secure the construction and
control of what, when completed, will be one
aud the only grand Railroad Line connecting
the Atlantic and Pacific coasts.
One Htfndred and Ten Million Dollars ($110
OCO.CoO,) in money have already been expend
ed ty the two powerful compauies engaged in
this great en:erpri.e, and they will speedily
complete the portion yet to be built. When
the United States Government found it neces
sary to secure the construction of the Pacific
Railroad, to dsrelop aud protect its own inter
est, it gave the companies, authorized to build
it such ample aid aa should render its speedy
completion Weond a doubt. The Government
aid may be briefly summed up as fuilow?:
First. The rijrht of wav aud all necessary
timber, aud stone from public domain.
Second. It makes a aoimion cf 12.8Q0 seres
of land to the mile, which, when the road is
completed, will amount to twenty-three Bullion
(23.0OO,OJD) acres, and all ol it within twenty
(20) miles of the railroad.
Third. It loans the companies fifty million
do'.Urs ($50,000,000), for which it takes a
ecotid lien.
The Government has already loaned the
Union Pacific Railroad twesty four million
and fifty -eight thousand dollars xf24.0."8,COd)
and to the Central Pacific Railroad seventeen
million six hundred and forty eight thousand
dollars $17,6-ttf,l;b0), amouMiug in all to
fortv-one million teven hundred and six thous
ar.d'dollars ($4 1 ,706,030)
The companies are rermittedto iue their
own Fir-t Mortgage Bouds to the same amount
as they receive fruin the United Statca. and r.o
more. The compunies have Fold to permanent
investors about ?4;),00U,0t!0) fotty million
dollars of their first Mortgage Bond. The
companies have already paid in (including net
ejiiiiugt'not divided, grants from Sttteof Cali
fornia, sud Sacramoiuocity and San Francisco,)
upwards of v$SJ5,i-0-,tKHi) tweuty-tive miliioii
dollars of capital stock.
