The rit Lest ami most viilunblo mint's have in almost nil instance hecti (Un covered by accident; often by ignorant )eiBon ho knew not their reul vnliio, and pfimt litnca by tbilih-en. To an Indian luinler is owed tho knowledge of tho chief American mines, nnd to a fhciihcrd tho silver mines of l'eru. This latter, lending bis flocks to feed on tho sloiies of the Andes, lighted a fire to cook bin meal, when s pebble, heated by tho flame, nllracted his at tention by shining lilto silver. JIc fuiind the stone munsivo nnd woility,. and finally cniried it to tho mint al Limn, where it was tested, and proved to be pood oro. As tho Spanish laws, with a view to enconruo mino dis covery, make it tho property of tho finder, this lucky shepherd became a millionaire. The Sacramento pold fields were discovered by a Mormon laborer, w ho worked in a saw mill. Ajxain, in North Carolina, in IT'.t!!, a child picked up a yellow stone, of w hich it father, n rudo settler, thought nothing; but becauso it weighed fifteen pounds, used it ns a door-fastener for his cabin, for ho was so poor that ho bad no latch. Ho showed this stone to one of his few visitors, nnd opined it to be a melnl of some sort, after which ver dict tho owner used to exhibit it as n curious rock specimen. Three years nflerwnnl, on jjoinjr to tho market at Lafayette, he took the thing to a golil smiUi, and nsked fifteen shillings for it, which was very willingly paid. It was in reality a nugget worth lT'i. Thus it tool; four years to find out that tho yellow stones in tho streams of California, were gold. It is fair to stale, however, that scieneo has occasionally predicted w hero the precious metals have after ward been found. Sir Itodei ick .Mur-chit-on, for instance, afier a viit to tho nurifcrous tracts of tho I'ral mountains, wns struck by their grout similarity to some rock specimens' from Lust Australia; nnd in his ad dress to tho (icogniphical Society in 114, prophesied that gold would be found in the latter region. Led by his observations, one Smith, engaged in tho iron wotks at Itcrritna, searched for Rold, and found. Ho came to the Governor of tho colony with a nugget in his hand. "See whut I have found," said he; "give inr five hundred pounds, nnd I will show you the place : w hich t lo Governor declined lo do. Agnin, Mnegregor, a Scotch shepherd, used to sell grains and nuggets of gold to the goldsmiths of Sydney, but would never reveal w hence ho got tlicm. It is not u-nnl, however, lor discov erers of tho precious metals to bo pru dent; they consider themKclves ' luck" in this particular line, nnd will leave or sell n good "find" in hopes of find ing a heller. This is what tho Span iards call "tho miner's frenzy." Thus, tho richest vein of silver in Chili, was discovered by G'odoy, a hunter in the j Andes, raligued by tho chase, he seated himself, on one occasion, under tho (heller of a great rock, nnd was struck by the color and brightness of a projecting part. Ho chipped the 'slono with n knife, nnd finding that lio could cut it (to use Ins ow n expres sion) like) cheese, bo took a specimen of il to Copinpo. It was found to be chloride of silver. Ho agreed to share the profits of his discovery with n rich man, who engaged to work the mine ; they came at once to ints-.es of silver; but (iodoy sold his interest in the matter lor two thousand eight hun dred pourds, nnd started to find more mines; nnd having wandered about tho Andes for somo years, died, hav ing met with no moro "luck," nnd n iihoiil a penny. Two brothore,nnmod Molakos.discov ered nl Copinpo, in n crevice opened vv somo eat thoiiuke, nn enormous y somo c Jock of sil silver ore, the culling, trans. port, nnd fusion of which wasoensy, that these ignorant men cfl'eeled it w ilhotit assistance ; nnd less than two years realized ono hundred nnd forty thousand pounds. They squandered, however, this enormous sum in gam- I bling and dissipation ; nnd w hen their j mino tierame suddenly exhausted, thry had not even the wretched pit jtnnco left on which they had begun.

I REP NOT MEN. THE LAST WHITE ROSE. In tho lowest dungeon under the Iialliiini Tower, a prisoner tossed fo vorisbly on his low pallet. Grief nnd sickness liad laid I heir wasting hands upon him, yet they could not quite quench tho tiro of a nohlo eye, nor disguise I ho symmetry of n princely form. For eleven ' "years Edward Courtney, "Tho Last White Itoso," us he was called, hero had languished. Suddenly the prisoner raised his head. Tho noiso of chains nnd bolis clanked heavily through tho vault, nnd In a moment the jailor stood bc foro him. Willi a surly sort of a growl ho placed iho crust, which was to form tho captive's meal, beside hjrn. "liood F.rwin, I am ill at caso to day," said Courtney ; "could not thy charity procure me a morsel of meat 1" "Nay, master," said tho man ; "such comforts, bcliko, como not within prison faro at lenst, not here." ' Wouldst thou dress it for mo, were ! lo procure it?" nskod tho sufferer. "Thou procure it!" A brutal laugh, which ended in a low chuckle, was his only nnswer. A moment more, nnd tho gigantic form was withdrawn, and Courtney with a sigh, fell back upon his rude couch, l'resently a gleam or light shono through it chink in tho wall, a soil purring followed, nnd a cut rub bed the hand of the prisoner. "Ah my faithful friend," said Ihe curl, "thou, at least, wouldst sympa thise, nrd ihou inightest." His soliloquy was interrupted by Iho booming of cannon nnd tho ring ing of distant bells. A moment moro and tho door of tho cell was flung open, and ho wus desired to come forth. .Surrounded by tho noblest peers of her realm, among w hem Northumber land und Norfolk wero distinguished as occupying tho place of honor on her right band, and billowed by ladies and knights blazing in jewels, Altry Tudor entered tho capital of her renlni. Her palo, thin face claimed all tho benuly it ever knew, and her tall, dignified form was habited inn robe of dark velvet, bound nt the throat nnd waist with pearls. A barb, lis it was termed, studded with pearls, shaded her face, and from it, fastened by a brooch of gems, flowed a heavy veil of twisted silk und gold. Her melancholy eyc wandered over tho thousands crowtling to do her homage, and a sad smilo parted her lips, occasionally, ns sho spoko a I few words to the curl, on her right. I On her left rodo Kli.ahelh in nil the ' pride of youthful beauty; her golden j hair, escaping the band which fasten -ed it, tlowod over her queenly neck, ! and tho a.uro robe, which added grace to her noblo form, contrasting with ' tho sombre nltire of tho queen. I Loudly rang tho hells of St. Giles I nnd Westminster, answered by nil ) within tho cily, us tho messenger i landing at Queen's Slnr, moved to- ward tho lower.

Tho other day wo mot Wiggins, nnd ho had a silver eased watch hunting caso al that. Wo havo known Wig gins five nnd-twonty years and never know hiin to carry a watch before Wo nskod him whero ho got it. Ho gavo us a rod nnd a leer, nnd said that ho would tell us. "Last fall," ho commenced, "I kill od Iho old brimllo cow, and put the best pnrt of her into thn beef barrel. I didn't want to mako it very salt, so I set il out in tho shed, whero the frost might touch it nnd keep it ; nnd you'd believe it mndo good eating." "One day my wife says to me says sho "Wiggins pears lo me our hoof is going mighty fast." 1 went nnd look ed, nnd, sure enough, It wus going going rat her faster'n I thought than it ought to. "1'vo noticed il lower ing unaccountably this long time, said my wife. Somebody is slcaling it. Why don't yc set a trap ?" lint my neighbors were nil good hearted kind of folks though ono or two of tlicm might be just a lectio in clined to poke round where they did not belong nnd I did not want lo hurt them. I concluded howsotnever, that il would be best to put tho barrel, with what little beef was left down in tho celler, and I did it. "Well, when tho beef was all used up, nnd I went to clear nut tho barrel, I found this watch in tho pickle. Il looked to mo liko Tom Sherman's w atch. Tom had worked fornio con siderable, and I havo scon bim have the watch, or one vcrv niticli liko it. When I saw Tom I snowed bim the watch, and he sitid right off, it w as his. "How did ye loso il ?" said I. "1 carried il in my pocket without a chain, nnd must havo dropped it out w hen I was stooping," said bo. "Well," said I, "then yo must hnvc been stooping over my beef barrel, for I found it in tho pickle !" "With that Tom looked kind of sheepish; nnd 1 guess ho saw the twinkle in my eye." "Let mo look ut that watch again," Enid ho. Ho looked nt it a little whilo and then bo banded it bark to mo. "tin tho whole, Mr. Wiggins," saiil he, "I guess that ain't ny watch, arter all. It must belong to somebody else." And with that ho walked off. "I carried tho watch lo our jeweler, nnd he found that the cases had shut so tight that tho works hadn't been pickled a bit; nnd for a dollar bo cl"ancd it up in good shape ; and set it a running." It's a first-rate time keeper, and I reckon that whoever look my beef paid all 'twas worth." A Truthful Way of Putting It. Thero is hardly nny ono who has not had melancholy oeension to know that the home education of children is a duly all hut universally shirked in this country. Wo delegate this, as wo delegate everything else, and Irust that boarding-schools, (lay-schools nnd Sunday-schools will repair tho mis chief occasioned by our negligence. At a meeting this week of the Boston Sunday School Society, the Kev. Mr Truflon complained that "children aro no longer brought up they nro tum bled up ; it is dono by machinery. Once tho mother used to teach the children around tho hearth slono. Now they nro sent to Sunday School, and sing," "1 want tn 1m an angid, And with the anjrt la ataml, A emwn ufim my turebcad. And llarK-r'e in my hand." "I nm nfrnid," said Her. Mr. Traf Ion, dolorously, "that family govern ment is a lost art." Perhaps Mr. Wendell Phillips will put il into that venerable lecture of bis, by way of variation, the next timo ho delivers it. Wo havo plenty of Little Men und Lilllo Women in America, but no liny nnd Girls. Family government should be nn enlightened nnd con scientious Despotism, nnd wo have made it a Democracy ; wo nro so fond of our children that we mostly let them havo their own w ay in diet, nnd diversion, and drots ; in the disposi tion of Iheir lime; in their demounor toward their ciders nnd superiors; in their morals nnd in their manners, which nre only morals in notion ; un til Ihe whole land swarms with nn in solent, teasing, worrying, tormenting progeny, to tho increase of old bacho lois and Iho distress of adult every body. Tho weakness which engen ders this indulgence does not deserve to bo called love. It is simply a weak and silly partiality for one's own, en couraged by indolence and confirmed by hurrying pursuits outside of home Tho impulsive would find a remedy for this in flogging; but every good observer knows that thero is a belter and a wiser way.

Forgetting thoso things that nre behind, we reach forth tu those that nro before. Loxo Faces What a sad mistake it is to supposo that a man should he gloomy becauso he is devout; us if niiery were acceptable lo God on its own account, and happiness an offence against his dignity. A modern writer says of a certain class : "Thero is a secret unbelief among somo men thai God is displeased with men's happiness, and so the)- slink about creation, ashamed nnd afraid to enjoy anything!" There ato tho pcoplo of whom Tom Hood says : "They think tbeyr'e pious when tbeyr'e only billious." A good man is almost nlways a cheerful ono. Il is fit that bud men should scowl, look blue and melan choly, but ho who has God's smilo of approbation upon bim should ihow its rudianco in his countenance. Dr. Johnson said ho "never knew a villain in his life that was not, on tho whole, an unhappy dog." Hut an honest man tho man with a good conscience let him enjoy his sleep and his dinner, nnd love his wife nnd the prattle of his children, nnd show a beaming face to his neighbor Surely lliero is no worse thonlogy than that w hich teaches that Ho w ho has given such fullness of joy to beast nnd bird, delights in tho misery of men ; or that, having been filled with gladness, we Ought to givo the lie to His goodness by wearing faces be clouded with woo nnd lurrowed by pretended utihappiness. . we .

In Massachusetts there is a surplus nf twenty thousand women who must go to their graves without husbands or babies. West of the llocky Mountains, thero is a surplus of twenty thousand men without a hit of calico lo get sentimental over, washing their own clothes, cooking their own pota toes, nnd living like pigs.
