CorresPoruienee of the Pittsburgh Gazette: COLORADO TERRITORY, July 31,1868. - News from this part of the nation 'may lie of interest to some of your readers, and I shall attempt to eve you the benefit of my two years' residence out here in the liiiti -411e of the world. Gold mining is, and has been, the great business here, and, as in all i other business, some men'make and some lose, and the losers form the majority. In some parts of the Territory, log huts still are fashionable, but if one of your Eastern readers were - to come out here, he would be astounded at" the solid looking town we hive. Brick buildings, such as churches, schools ' stores and dwellings are about as much the rule here as at the East. Central City and P'evada, which are in reality thisame town, contain about seven thensand inhabitants, six or seven churches and as many minis ters. In about a year a branch of the Union Pacific Railroad will be built I to Golden City, which is only twenty miles from here, and then it will not be long until we have direct railway connection -with the East, and then a few more years will only be needed to get the people to know what kind of a place it is, and it- will be the •greatest summer resort on the continent. Besides cool days and nights, (the thermometer has -not.- reached eighty degreee this summer,) the scenery is enblime, and there is probably no more interesting tripin the world. - I used to enjoy more than anything else, being on the ocean in a storm, contemplating the stupendous rush of mighty waters, and feel ing the almightypower of God, and man's insignificance. Here Fled just the same, among these enormous mountains and sur rounded by the tremendous stillness of nature. June and July are our rainy sea son, and during those months we have rain almost every day, then come August and September, more delinhtfhl than anything you can ithagine, with , weatherd air an such that mere living is plum:mil of the highest order. In October the anew begins; but we rarely have more than - feint to six inches, scarcely enough for sleighing. We can now, from here, see the snow, whiteon the tops of ' the ranges some fifteen miles .away. Then ,for health, there is no place like it. When I left the East my health fres miserable, I had two physicians , attending me, one of whom said I would never live to get here and the other said I might as well come as I would be sure to die any way, and now after two years, , l am enjoying better health than ever before, and am a - robust man. , Five years ago, if any one had told' me that I should be living in or even ever see the Rocky Mountains, 'I should have hooted at him t and yet here I am and do not feel at all out of the world, for we have a daily email by six horse coaches and news by'itele graph from all parts of the world, which we read in our two daily papers about 'aisoon as you have it in Pennsylvania. We have both steam and water power stamp, grist 'and saw mills, and yet some of our cast ings are from Pittsburgh. In coricluelon, this is' an Nex,:ellent place for men to come to who have money, for - they can easily make more, but to those who have none, I say don't Come unless they be laborers. This latter class receive from $3 to $5 per day, and servant girls receive from .$lO to $l2 per week and are a scarce article. Money can easily be loaned at 2to per cent. month, interest payable monthly with good .security, but this rate of interest cannot be, sustained very long. • t Tell yourreaders to come out here if they want - to have a good . summer excursion, but when they come, to leave all business . behind, spend a month out here, and they will feel much better forlt when the go 'back. ,Origln of the Names for the, Days of the Week. - Most persoiut are fanilliar with the facts in reference to the , nanes of the days of the week, and. et there may be some who are not able to account for the order in which they occur. ' ; The dwitrien of, time intd-weeks, was probably-first znade bYthe Chaldeans;- and - -the general order as adopted by the ancient people; has, existed to the present time. • According- to the Ptolematic system, t•here are seven planets which revels arotuail .ibeearth in the following order- of , ; beginning at the - inost remote—Seturn, -Jupltsr, Map. Sun, Venus. Mercury, Moom The day being divided into' twenty-four lours, and each hOur, by turns, being de, ' voted in thdory to one or another; in regu lar order, otthe divinities . which ruled the, -planets,; th e present order of days was neo •earsiry,_ln order to keep span uninternipt ed succession. Saturn or Saturday, was the 'first day - -of-.the week, the first hour of which was oleo devoted to Saturn,',:' the :fsecond-hour to Jupiter. the third to Mars, the fourth to Sun, the fifth to Venue, the sixth to Mercu ry, the seventh to Moon. The eighth was in regular, succesition de - voted to saturrq -ad also the fifteenth and the twenty-second the twenty-third to . Jupiter, the twentY- fourth to Mars, and thejirat hour of the see -ond day! to Bun, -hence the; day is called Sunday. By continuing the , same order Sun answers to the eighth, lifteeth and twenty-seconds; the twenty-tidpi, isYenuis, - -. the twenty-fourth Mercury, and the first hour in the third day is Moon, hence Moon day or Monday.. , - Moon answers to the eighth, fifteenth or twenty-second hours; the twenty-third to -Saturnt,the twenty-fourth to Jupiter; the • ' , .."first hour of the fourth day is Mars—Saxon;: Tuts...* or 'l.lg, hence Tuesday. The first-hoar of tho fifth day by the same succession; will le Mercury—Saxon, Wed •-eno, hence Wednesday. The ,order gives the first hour of the sixth day to Jupiter, the - Saxon Thor, hence Thursday. Friday, likwise, gives its first hour to Venus—Sax -on.

MI EMESEMIi CLIPPINGS. THE STRIKE ENDED.—The strike among the miners along the Shenango Valley has ended, and the miners went to work again last week. This strike has made a differ ence of over haft a million donors in the business of this valley, has reduced the earnings of the railways and canal a quar ter of a million, and has affected the lake trade and the country iminediataly inter ested in the mines more than half a million dollars more.=-Grientrilie Argua. AT , . POBTICI, near Naples, so little value is set upon human life that a man recently murdered an acquaintance for the sum of two cents! Criminal returns in this district show for the month of June • last nineteen murders, two hundred and thirteen cases of stabbing, .three suicides and one hun dred and eighty minor crimes. If ;this state of things existed about two thousand years ago, it is no I wonder that Vesuvius played such an ugly trick on Pompeii. Tau war-pressure has been so great in Brazil that the Emperor and Empress have contributed a quallter of their income to help the public purse, and the other mem bers of the Imperial family one-fifth of theirs. At the sane time the Emperor has refused to have any exemption from the tax of three per cent. on all earnings over six hundred dollars yearly, and pays that proportion of the revenue allowed him for the support of his State as head of the Em pire. , Tally have curious ideas of pindshroeid 'out West. The Quincy (Ill.) Herald, after relating a diabolical attempt by a ruffian to destroy a house and its inmates by set ting fire to a 'room which contained two barrels of gunpowder, adds: "He ought to be sent to the workhouse for at least thirty days!" From the wording of the sentence, it would appear that the writer is not sure, that even so rigorous a punishment' as "thirty days" will beinflicted on the frisH oner. Air association of Cambria and Blair county bigness men have leased from E. F. Hodges, of •Boston, with the privilege of buying hereafter, thh furnace at Cone. inangh Station; Cambria county, which has been out of, blast for several years. They have also leased, under, the' same condi tion, 450 acres of ore and coal lands adjoin ing the furnace, and the ore right of 2,300 acres on the Broad Top Railroad in Hun tingdon; county,. The furnace is now in blast. AT A recent meeting of the committee of the Harvard graduates on the Alumni hall and Harvard memorial, it was stated that up to the present time 13142,000 of the me morial fund hadbeen received. Five thou sand dollars in addition to I this have been placed in the hands of the treasurer, and there is due from subscribers about 146,000 —05,000 of which is considered good— making in all 1182,000 toward a fund of pOO,OOO, which it will cost to complete the proposedstructure in accordance with the plans adopted by the building committee. The corner stone of the commemoration hall, it is thought, can be laid about the middle of October next. , TEE largest rose bush in existence is in the Marine Garden at Toulon,France. It is called the Lady Banks, ancovers swell seventy-feet in width, and eighteen feet in height. The trunk measures, near the root, two feet eight inches..' During the month of April it produces fifty thousand white roses. The oldest known rose bush is the one which grows on the wall of the cathedral at Hildesheim, Prussia. It is one thousand years old, 'and from its trunk, which is one foot in diameter, extends six branches fifteen feetin height. The Bishop of Hildesheitn, in the Middle Ages, had it covered with a roof to protect it from the ill- clemency of the weather. ON the recent wedding day of the grand Duke of Mecklenburg the rejoicings of the party assembled at the dinner table were suddenly brought to a very disagreeable close. All the'griests were suddenly taken very sick, a rather large quantity of arsenic having been added to a pudding, of Which everybody seated at the table had partaken. It was discovers(' that 'one of the girls in the kitchen had thrown the rat poison, into the auger-box, wh‘ince it had found its way into the pudding. Emetieri quickly admin istered relieved the sufferers, but the wed ding day of a sovereign Prince hardly ever closed in as dismal a manner as that of the Grand:Duke of Mecklenburg. ' Mem= VERNoN, the, burial place of Washington, is in , a dilapidated and (Hs; gracefol oonditiOn; but it is visited by hull dredasonstantly, and every.vieitor has • to pay a fee of fifty cents. There was a terri ble hubbub raised a few years- ego, by the 'old ladies who christened themselves "Re gents" of the Mount Vernon Association, about the then owner of the property "sell ing the !miles of Washington;" and a Con siderable summas raised by Mr. Everett and the "Regents" to rescue the bones from the mercenary bands of the dickering F.
