UDITOR S NOTICE. 6ne line morning, as I was leis urely walking down Main street with no particular object in view, my at tention was attracted to a little boot black. Some one in passing bad dropped, or carelessly thrown away a email bunch of blue bells. My at tention was firfct attracted to the lit tle fellow by his etooping to pick them up, but what was my amaze ment to gee hun tenderly kiss them, anU then carefully fasten them in the buttonhole of bis faded jacket. My curiosity was aroused. I maue up my mind to quiz the boy, so I walked up to him und ntked him for a shine. I looked st the Ikt carefully; hn was very email and very poorly dressed, he was pale and thin, aud the large blue eyes looked as if they were full of unshed tears. "M:i f a dime. lie said, ween ue hud put a tine polish on my shoe?. I took out a quarter, and said, as I balanced it on my fore-finger, "lit re is ten cunts for the shine and fifteen cents for the flowers," point ing to the bells in his buttonhole. He put hi .mail baud over the flowers ana en-"! a quic gasp. "Xo. sir; I r-'t sell them; if I was starving I wouldn't sell a blue he ll " i J l w ... ...n lillla man9" .rtiiu w uy not, a"j ioo . I inquired. He looked at me po piteously that I wps almost sorry that I bad asked him. I put my hand on his head, and said : 'Excuse me for asking. You need not tell me unless you wish to, and vou can keep the quarter besides." He looked up at me a moment and said : "I like you, and if you care to listen I'll tell you." "Of course I am anxious to hear whvyou love the blue bells." "I will commence at the first and tell it all to you, but first let us go down there and sit down," pointing to some dry goods boxes not far from where we stood. We went, and after seating our selves on a small box behind Eome lartrer ones, where we would not be observed, he Took the blue bell bou quet in bis hand and began by eay it'2 : "It is just a year ago this month, and it has been such a lone year I thouc ht the blue bells wouul never come." and then be Btopped and nut his hands over his eyes, as if to t-hut out some noma signi, 1 oiu not interrupt his reverie. Presently he took down bis hand and said ab ruptly : "My father was a drunkard. We once owned some fine property, I've htard mother say, but that was be fore I was born, for we have always been poor ns fur back as 1 can re member. Mother pays that father drank up the farm, theoxen, hordes, sheep, cows, furniture and every thing else. e got so poor motner had to go out and wash by the day to get food for Bess and me to eat. We lived in a little log house, a quarter of a mile from anyone: it was aoout nan a miie to town. Mother used to walk to town every day except Saturday, to wash for somebody. On Saturday she wash ed for ourstlves and ironed on Sun day." "Sunday is the Lord's day. Your mother certainlv didn't work on tbe Sabbath?" "Yes, rir; she had to. Mother said the Lord made six days for the saloon keeper and one for himself, rbut he forgot to make a day for the drunkards wife. She saul the sa loon keepers had confiscated the Lord's day, but she had hoped the Lord would consider her circum stances and forgive her for working on the Sabbath. She Eaid if there were no saloons she would not have to work on Sunday. There were just four of us, father, mother, Baby Bess and Willie, that's me." "So yourname is Willie, is it? but go on with your story." "Well, as I said, mother was away all day, and sometimes she would not get home until after dark ; she was not very strong, and sometimes she had big washings, and some times we didn't have much to eat, because the ladies mother washed for didn't have tbe right charge, or would forget to ask their husbands for it. Mother always hated to ask for money after she had earned it, she said it did seem as if they ought to know that Ehe r.eeded the money, or she would not wash for it, and it generally happened that when one washwoman. It was one of those j weeks when nobody had any change; it was Friday morning, and we had had very little to eat on Thursday, and on Friday morning there was onlv a pint of corn meal and about j two spoonfuls of molasse. Mother baked the meal into Dreaa, and told me to feed the bsby when he woke, and to keep a sharp lookout for fath er; he was in town on a big spree; he was awful cross when he was drinking, and it was not safe fur him to get his hands on us, so we always hid when we saw him com ing, if mother was not at home. Lit tie Bess would nearly go into fits when she saw him coming home drunk. "Don't let Bess cry if you can help it, Willie ; I'm afraid that I won't get home until after dark to night, Mrs. Gray always has such large washings, but I will come as 60on as I can, and I will bring home some provisions, for I must have some monev to-night, or we starve.' She kissed baby BesS as she lay in the cradle, ind then kissed me at the door. 'Be a good boy, Willie, and take care of little sister.' Bessie slept a long time that morning, and I passed the time in sitting bv her and goinc to the door to watch. lor father. When she woke up she said tbe first thing, Baby is so hungry, llhe, get something to eat. Uet up, Uesie," 1 said, and let me put your dress on, and then we will eat breakfast.' I had not eaten a bite, nor had mother tasted food before leaving home, and I was awful hun gry myself. Sbe got up, and I dress ed, washed and combed her; but when we sat down to the table, and then she just dropped her curly head right down on the table and sobbed out: 'Oh, Willie, I'm so tired of corn bread and molasses, I can't eat it. I want some butter and meat." 'Don't cry, Balry,' I said, stroking her curly head, 'mother will bring home something to-night' 'Try to eat.' I said, and I put a spoonful of molasses oa her plate, and she did try, but she only swallowed a few mouthfuls, and then she left the ta ble. I ate a small piece of day corn bread; I thought maybe sbe would eat the molasses, so I did not touch it. All day shekept saying she was hungry, but refused to eat what we had. It was a long day to both of us. Father had not come home, and it was nearly dark. We were sitting on the door step and Bessie began to cry, 'I'm bo hungry, Wil lie, mother stays bo late to-night.' 'Don't cry, Baby, mother will soon be home.' 'Of course Bhe will,' ex claimed George Anderson ; he lived a mile beyond us, and as he spoke he tossed a bunch of blue bells into Bessie's lap. 'Oh, how pretty,' she exclaimed, while the tears dropped from her sweet blue eyes down on the pretty blue bells. 'Come, Bes sie,' I said, 'let me fasten them among your curls.' She got up and stood Jin the door-s'ep with her face towards the house. I stood behind her and tied the blue bells in her golden curls. I had just fastened the last one when some one jerked me off the bottom step. It was fath er; he was drunk; and I knew by his looks that he was almost crazy with drink. He pushed me aside, and stood between little Bessie and me. Bessie turned to run, but he caught her and said, 'You have been crying; what did Willie do to you?' She was so white and scared that I thought she would faint. 'Willie uidn't do anything,' she gasped out. 'You rascal, what did you do to Bessie? Tell me, or I will shake the breath out of you.' He shock me so I could not answer. Then little Bessie caught him by the arm, 'Please, father, don't hurt Willie; I was so hungry it made me cry.' He looked in at the table and saw the bread and molasses. 'You little white-faced liar, you are not hun gry ; look at that table; there is plenty to eat, and geed enough, too, lor such a brat as you. and he shook her rouhlv. Sbe began to crv and I tried to put my arm around her. but he pushed me away. 'If you can't eat anything, I will give you something to drink,' and he caught her up in his arms and started down the path that led to the pond where we got our wash-water. It was a lovely place in summer, and aspien did place fur skating in the winter; the wafer was as clear as a lake, and it was surrounded by green grass, and several large trees grew near the bank. It was only a short distance from the house. Bessie hushed her sobs, but she looked awful scared. I followed close behind father. 'I'll give you something to drink,' be ex claimed, as he reached the edge of the pond, and he walked right info the water, and I followed, scarcely knowing what 1 was doing, I was so frightened. He waded about knee deep. Then he took Bessie, and putting her feet under one arm, he put her little curly head down under the water. She "threw up her little white hsdns and cried out, 'Oh, Willie, take baby,' just as the curly head went down. I begged father to take her out, but he would not listen to me. I waded around, and tried with all my strength to raise her head out of the water, but father held it down. She threw up her hands wildly, there was a gurgling sound, and then all was still. I begged father to take her out I prayed God to save Bessie's life, but a'l in vain ; God was far away, and did not hear me cry, at least it seem ed to me so.

In the winter of '49 the writer of this saw and handled the largest piece of gold that had yet been found in California. It weighed twenty- two pounds and nine ounces, and was estimated, by careful weigh ing in watpr and otherwise, to con tain five pounds of quartz, the rest being pure gold. 1 ne tinder sold it for S"),(XK), and it was subsequently sold in San Francisco . for $10000. It was found at Sonora, then known as theSonorian Camp, by a lazy old Mexican "greaser," who was rooting about in holes and pits that whites and others hud dug out and aban doned in the outskirts of the town. As soon as he found it he washed it off, took it to the nearest "monte" bank and lost $-"i00 on it as soon as he could conveniently. He had lots of fun in a short space of time for the 85,000, which Xh?y allowed him for the nugget. In this connection the Grass Valley Union of October 10th prints the following: "Louis Blandingsays the generally accept ed statement that the largest nugget ever found in California was worb a little over $21,000, is an erroneous one. He says that J. J. Finney, 'Old Virginia,' found a piece of gold about six miles from Downieville, Sierra County, on the 21st of Au gust 1S57, that weighed 5,000 ounc es. The gold of that vicinity was worth $18 an ounce, which would make the value of the nugget some SUO.OOO. This would make the Fin ney nugget the largest piece of gold ever discovered, so far as accounts gq. Heretofore the Australian nug get, found in ll.e Ballarat gold-fields, has been considered the largest. It was valued at $00,000. Finney, or 'Old Virginia,' as he was familiarly called, afterwards went to Washoe when the first silver discoveries were made there, and from him the town of Virginia took its name. The man who discovered the largest nugget in California mines a:id gave his name to the richest mining camp in the world, died in extreme poverty."

The Senate stands adjourned till 12 o'clock to-morrow." This assumption by the presiding officer was tacitly permitted and en joyed by eome of the other Senators, who also liked to dine at an early hour. One day Senator Ingalls, of Kan sas, had risen to tieoate on an im portant bill which was under con sideration, when Judge Davis, who wanted to go to dinner, looked to ward the other side of the Senate chamber, mumbled out his motion, and declared it carried.

She lay day after day in ber little white cot. with nothing to occupy her thoughts but her pain. The surgeon saw her one day trying to make a doll of her fingers, playing with it, and at last giving it up with a weary sigh, turn ing to watch tbe sunlight creeping over her bed as she had done for months. That afternoon tbe doctor, passing a shop, bought a long soft ribbon, of an exqui-ite rose color, and gave it to littie Katie. She was breathless with pleasure, smoothed it out, held it up, soft and shis.ing, iu the sun, and loosed at the mend, speechless with tears of ecitacy. Frctii that time she was rich. The nure told the (lector a week later that the child plaed with the rib bon all day, twisted it about her head, playing that she was a biide, a priuce'ts, a fairy ; held it in her hand while she slept, and laid it, fi l.lt-'d in papier, under her pillow at night It was found necessary, af ter two months, to perform a capital On Wednesday, learning through Thomas O'Neal, of this town, that a party of woodchoppers, while felling a tree the day previous npar the old Smith Ashley rancho, Pacheco. and some three miles from Concord, bad discovered an enormous snake, the dimensions of which aro'ised our at tention, we immediately repaired to the scene of the discovery. There stretched before us lay an objecttbe body of which was snake like in proportions, measuring fourteen feet seven inches long, three feet around the largest part of the body, and ta pering gradually toward the tail. The head resembled that of a croco dile, a row of large, pointed teeth lining its jaws, the upper jaw ex tending forward from the anterior angle of each eye; the skin was light colored, spotted with black ; a coat of hair, in places twelve inches long, extending in a continuous line from head to Liil ; and its body be ing ornamented with eight pairs of short webbed feet The entire mon- 8tnsity would weigh about 200 pounds. The discovery was made after the tree fell, which was found to be hollow, the reptile crawling from it which so scared the wood choppers that they fled to town, leaving hats and coats behind. It general appearance was that of the amphisbfena, a genus of saurians that abound in South America, aud which live mostly on small insects. But how this particular creature came in this vicinity is for the ser vants ot California to study up. We are sorry the reptile was killed, as it might have adorned the interior of a mi liberie. However, we should suggest that the officers of the Cali fornia Academy of Sciences dispatch one of its experts to determine the species of the reptile. Conord(Cal Shi. The Impending Crisis).
