Tha poapantry of Huogarj*, Croatia, Dalmatia, rolnnti and Turkey still liclitvo in vampires, and all attempts to eradicate the belief ltave IkUed.— They hold that the vampiren, when buried, remain with their eyes wide open, and that i:. and nails constantly grow; also that they come from tho tomb at dead of night, and Rick the blood of their victims—leaving no traces behind except a little red or blue spot on tlie neck and throat; and, finally, that the only way of getting rid of them is to cut off their heads and burn their bodies. A German paper relates a curious instance of thia popular superstition, which recently occurred atSpalatro, in Dalmatia : " A young and beau* tiful girl, tho daughter of a wealthy peasant, had numerous laitflra, and from amongst them she selected ono of her own station in lift. The be. trothal of tho young couple was celebrated by a grand feast given by tho girl's father. Towards midnight the girl and her mother retired to their chamber, leaving the father and guests at the ta. bK All at once the two women were heard to shriek dreadfully, nnd the moment afterward*, tho mother, pale and haggard, tottered into the room, carrying her daughter leaeelete in her arms, and crying In a vote* of Indescribable ago_ ny. A vampire! a vampire! my daughter is dead. The vlltaga doctor happened tu be among tVe guests, and seeing that thei'glrl had only fainted, administered to her a cordial, which restored her to consciousness; and he then questioned her She stated that as she was undressing a pale spectre, dressed iu a shroud, had glided in by the ■ throat—after which ho had disappeared; added that she had recognized him as one Krys- bewsky, a rejected, suiter of Lew, who had died a fortnight before. The doctor attempted to persuade tho girl that she must be laboring some delusion, but she persisted in b The parents and guests unhesitatingly believed that fhe had really been bitten by a vampire, and they were very angry with Ihe dr.ctur fcr srara- ming to sa.y to the contrary. The neat day nearly all the men of tho village, armed with gnitt, and all the women proceeded to the cemetery, ottering dreadful imprecations against the vampire Krysnewsky. The coffin of the deceased was dug up and farced open, and being raised on end, twenty - tired at the skull of the corpse. The fragments of oarage dances and. cries, were horned in a huge fire, as was the body itself afterwards. The girl was taken seriously iii, and continued to g for about a fortnight, when she died. She con- itantly persisted in saying that she had I ti u in the throat by a vampire, but she would on no account allow the doctor to examine the wound. After her death, hewever, he took the I from her neck, and found a small wont throat, which had the appearance of harm made by a harness-maker's awl, which bad been poisoned. The doctor then learned that one of tbe rejected raitors of the girl was a banresa- makerofan adjacent village, and he did notdotfbt that it was he who had stubbed the girl. He gave ■ ii to the authorities, but the yetntg man hearing that be was to bo arrested Hod W the mountains, arid committed suicide by plunging Into a ton OOTJ^TY SURVEYOR'S OFFICE.

Mr. Jay had become aware of a growing evil among his brethren, arising from a cause with which, being familiar, lie determined upon relink ing and deaouneiag. When in the midst ofhis discourse, he said: ■' My young brother, it is to bo regretted that many-enter the ministry after they have : ncatcd, to whose- services tho church haa claim, they look round and select a lady for their wife . but lliey are ecreful (-he possesses a fortune.

" Did you marry a rich wife ?" " Yes, sir." " Ah ! my friend, yours is tho elzth caae. then."

" A WIPsTwASTED I
The lollfwing lines, signed by a person who
calls himself " Horace/' we find ia the San Francisco Evening News. Wo think V Horace" will
have to travel a long time before he finda one having all the accomplishments he enumerates :
I a wife
To cheer my lifo ;
I care not if she's minus beauty,
hut Hud
Tha: she is kind,
Aad k'.u*wa and practices her duty.
I want a wife
Averse to Btr
A gentle, unaffected croature ;
One who can pass
A looking glass
Sana stopping to survey each feature.
I want a wife
With vigor rife;
Whose nerves are never in a flutter ;
Who will not roam,
Bntstay at home.
Aad brew and bake, and make the butter.
I want a wife
Who through her life
Was never known to have a flirt;
Who'll bring to ms
A recipe
Te keep the buttons oa a .-hlrt.
If flitch a one
Dwells 'neath thepun.
And don't from friendn wind geing away,
She'll find true bliss,
And got many a kisi",
By coming to California.
[Our devil aaya he will not be bo fantidioui as
" Horace.*' and weuld take one with half the above
qualification*..]

This tree ia an evergreen ; tha leaves ar: «1iaped

For ornamontal purposes few trees bear coir,

ahlald it, tu Id early growjth, Irom the cold af
our Wioter*. It may be net in rows ahout five
feet npart and ivill, ia a short lime, afford a.
rich hedge. There cun be no doubt that this
tree will thrive in our lattltudei, as 4L does well
in tha Brazlli, where the cold is more intenae
than in the Sacramento and .Sao Joae valliea.—
It ie well known that tbe'CofTee tree doea not
require a higher temperature than the pome-
grainto, pine apple and puach, all of which aro
•asily raised in these valliea, and doubtless this
plant may b<* cultivated here wilh facility.
which will be found lo bo both ernamunt^l uud
