A Reminiscense of Hiram Powers.
Sitting in tbe Cafe Euro pa at Flor
ence, in 18PJ, our little coterie of sight
seeing salts were taking lunch, ilis
euaalhg people, tinti, as far us our poor
ability extended, making criticism
upon art. Any one of us, however,
coiild have been more critical In the
model of a sliiji or the proper laying
of a splice, than upon any ot the
numerous beautiful works of art whioh
had been presented to our inspection
•luring our visit. In the party there
was one who not only felt the grandeur
of being un American, but of all
Americans he waa the cap-sheaf. In
fact, weighed by his own estimate, he
WM the beau meal, and of course had
correapond I tig contempt for all in
ptebeutngarh. While chattering away
there waa quite a stir along the long
lines oi table* occupied hy representa
tive* of all nations, when v medium
sized mau, with slouched hut and very
ordinary clothes, covered from top to
toe, with white dust and plaster, came
and took a scat opposite us. Of course
we all noticed him, but Lowry held
aloft his hands in horror, that a per
son so indifferently dressed would
presume to enter the company of such
ax were occupying the saloon. The
dusty man, however, sipped his choco
late, and ate his cake in the most
quiet, gentlemanly manner, totally
oblivious to the disgust he was creat
ing in the bosom of our friend, Low
ly.
Having finished his lunch, horror
upon horrors! he came directly toward
us Lowry, in the most supreme dis
gust. When within genteel distance,
he inquired if we were from the I. S.
ship Jamestown. The senior of our
party answered that we were. Ho then
introduced himself as Hiram powers
an American, also — and invited us
to call at his studio. You can imagine
the chagrin and disgust of Lowry.
All of us were proud of Powers, and
while wo were chatting away, tiie full
sense of his deep blunder came over
him, and lie made all sail for the door.
During the afternoon we called at
tiie studio, finding Mr. Powers work
ing upon the plaster cast for his mag
nificent statue of America—-a bucket
of plaster in one hand, and a paddle
iv the other, completely covered with
.lust and plaster. He, seeing who we
were, said, "Gentleman, look around
until I get this bundle of sticks plas
tered up, and a few more dabs on, and
I will try to entertain you. I can't
stop now or this infernal stuff will get
hard." We had an abundant oppor
tunity for entertainment, as all his
curlier works were in the room, either
in stone or plaster, and after the com
pletion of his chore, as he expressed
it, he edified us during an hour or two
with more of art than we had ever
dreamed of. Poor Lowry, however,
never could endure any conversation
about the man with the shabby, dusty
clothes. Cor. N. V. Herald.

Care for the Eyes.
Multitudes of men and womeu have
made their eyes weak for life by the
too free use of the eyesight, reading
»me print and doing fine sewing. In
doing these things it is well to ob
serve the following rules iitthe use of
the eyes:
Avoid all sudden changes between
light and darkness.
Never read by twilight on a very
cloudjf day.
Never sleep so that on waking the
eye* shall open on the light of the
window.
Do not use the eyes by light so scant
that It requires an effort to discrimin
ate. , ,
Never read or sew directly in front
of th« light of a window or door.
It Is best to have tbe light fall from
above, obliquely over the left shoulder.
Too much light creates v glare and
pain, and confuses the sight. The mo
ment that you are sensible of an ef

fort to distinguish, thai moment stop
and talk, walk or ride.
As the sky is blue and the earth i*
green, it would seem that the ceiling
should be v bluish tinge, the Carpel
given, and the walls of aomowhat mel
low tint.
The moment thai you arc instinc
tively prompted to rub the eyes, that
moment cease using them.
If the eyelids arc glued together on
waking, (to not forcibly open llieinr
but apply the saliva with the linger,
and then" wash your face and hands
with warm water.
Queen Victoria s Present Life..
Queen Victoria has been spending a
quiet life at Balmoral. Her aim in
the north seems to be to live as simple
and as natural a life as possible, and to
avoid all fuss and ceremony. She is
scrupulously dtligent iv attending to
her public duties even during her holi
day, (ireat boxes of papers are con
stantly coming in and going out, and
all these are carefully read, and if nec
essary, signed. In other respects the
Queen's private life is simply that of
any private lady iv good circumstan
ces. She reads a good deal, keeps up
a considerable private correspondence,
takes walks and drives, and pays visits
to the cottagers as well as to the gen
try in the neighborhood. Her pub
lished drawings show thai site is no
mean draughtsman, and she still exer
cises her pencil in sketching. By the
advice of her physician, the spends a
great deal of her time in tlie open air
in all kinds ot weather. She is fond
of long excursions to the wilder parts
of the district, and drives at an ex
tremely rapid rate. She walks through
the mounds of the castle, or through
the valley adjoining, with one of her
daughter*, or a lady in waiting, and
with only a single attendant carrying
an umbrella, camp-stool and cloak.
A keen recollection of faces and names
is a hereditary faculty of the royal
family. The Queen knows almost
every resident hy sight, and she isalso
much interested iv learning ull the
details of their personal history. The
cottagers are getting used to it now,
but nt flrst there was not a little alarm
and consternation when her Majesty
sent word she was coming to tea; and
even now the honor is sometimes felt
to be rather embarrassing. She usu
ally sends her own tea and tetqiot, and
a room is usually set apart for her,
where she receives her hostess, and
hns a good gossip with her about all
the goings on in ihe district.
Rain and Snow.- The Truckee lie
pulieemot October 4th lias this item:
Yesterday afternoon the thermome
ter fell rapidly, with indications of
rain. Soon after dark, it began to
sprinkle gently, and continued until
the dust was well subdued and unable
to rise. This morning the Washoe
anil Sierra Nevada ranges of moun
tains were liberally patched over witli
snow. This is the first touch of win
ter that has visited us since May last.
Jack Frost has began his campaign
very mildly, as if to give people am
ple time to prepare for his heavier ad
vance, which will soon be upon them.
Thus far the weather in this region
lias been unusually balmy and delight
ful. September has been ns mild and
bland as rosy June, and even October,
with its sober somber hues and bracing
air, promises to behave well.

THE LOS ANGELES HERALD,
Th." first of October, The Los Anuf.t.ks Hfk-
Al.l), :< dully ti net weekly newspaper, will
make Ils appearance. Tlie Imi ly will lie a
neat und tastily printed seven-column news
paper, newsy rather tlian literary in charac
ter. The Weekly will hen six-column, eight
page paper, and will contain the most Impor
tant matter that has previously appeared iv
TW JMH.v IlKKAI.I).
It is proposed that the Ih mm shall he an
unliouglit advocate ol every interest pertain
ing to Southern ('allfornia and Arizona, and
a zealous worker In all things that shall tend
to benefit tbe State. In a word il will he In
close communion with the People. In Its col
umns, from time to time will he found mat
ters of Interest to ttie I'allfornia Farmer, Me
chanic, Merchant, Laborer, and all classes of
Producers; nnd It will also contain rending
matter suited to tlie Home Circle.
The IIF.KAI.n will bean Independent Dcmo
cratlc Journal and \{< efforts directed lo sweep
ing from power and place those now misman
aging tbe affairs of tbe Nation. For tlie ueeom
pllsbmentofthiseml, it will bail witli satisfac
tion tnecO-OPcratlon Ofthe members of nil Par
ties, believing that tin- prosperity, perhaps
safety, ofthe Nauon depends upon the success
ofa movement ofthls character. It Is" relorm
now or revolution hereafler."
The Hf.kai.ii will au Vacate Slate Rights and
oppose Centralism! Ion; II will encourage White
and oppose Coolie Immigralieti. ll will favor
Free Trade, ami oppose Protective Tariff; it
will advocate a Greenback Currency for Call
for nla, and oppose the present dwarfing and
deadening policy which upholds the present
ruinous rates of interest and shuts out Eastern
capital. It will advocate the People and op
pose Monopolies, no matter what guise they
may assume.
While the Herald aril) treat shivery asa
dead issue, It will earnestly advocate tlie
right of every State, be it Northern or South
ern—Massachusetts or South Carolina —to gov
ern itself in accordance with tlie wishes of its
people, and the dictates oftbe Federal Con
stitution, without national interference.
The Hi.n m.n will opppse thieving and |m-cu
lation. No man rigidly owns a dollar until
he earns it. Kvery dollar which Is taken
from the public treasury or private purse
without ajust return Is robbery, and he who
takes this money Is a thief. Believing this,
Ihe Hkkai.ii will oppose salary steals, custom
steals, land steals, railroad steals, and every
kind of steals.

to make the llKit vi.n, In this respect, cipiul to
any newspaper on the Const. It will also con
tain a full Review of the I/ieal and Foreign
Markets, and the Trades generally, honestly
nnd carefully compiled.

TKHTIMONIALH :
CxtTKasiTT of California, i
Department of Lanotaokh. y
Oakland, July 11, 1572. J
Herewith I certify that Miss Josephine Llud
lcy baa been a student in my department of
the Cniversltv for Aye consecutive terms, viz:
from September, IK7O, to April Id, 1H72. During
tills time she studied the French, tbe Spanish
and the German languages, obtaining always
the highest marks for proficiency anil attend
ance, her average credit mark for live terms
being 97 per cent.
On entering tbe University, Miss Lindley
possessed already such knowledge of the
French and Spanish idioms lis to be able to
speak them with case, fluency, correctness,
and a pure pronunciation.
She may now he considered thoroughly fa
milial with the theory and philosophy, as well
as with the application of these two tongues;
aud she may safely be recommended ns a can
didate of great promise, lOr tenehing the
French and Spanish languages.
