He had a “good entfit supplied him by his neighbors in [linois, who fitted him out, “un shares,” as a specula- tion. They are still waiting in expectation of @yidends on those shares—that is, what are left @f them above-ground. His best horse was stolen trom him near “‘ St Joe,” and he traded the other and the double harness off fora pair @f oxen, with a cow thrown in. One of his oxen was gobbled by the Indians on the Platte, and We sold. gave away, or threw away, Balt his load ef provisions, yoked the cow up with the re- maining ox, and started om again. The cow died on ead-waters of the Humbeldt, and he rode the ox down te “the Sink,” where it gave out as well; and he made the remainder of the journey alone, footing it by day, and camp- ing with any family who would give a sup- per and the use of a spare blanket at night. He reached Placerville at last, and got a job, Waiting on the table at an hotel, at good wages he end of the second month he tried his hand at a game of taro, and won eleven hun- dred andeighty dollars.’ There was a gushing young lady, who tended bar ina dance-hoase who knew him before he made this -‘ten-strike.” She suddenty discovered that he was @ very ¥ good fellow, and not bad-looking. She sug- led to him that it would be a good thing for am,to go into partnership, matrimonial and fipancial, and start an hotel at Coon Holler, a Bew and promising camp not far from Placer- ville, er, as it was then familiarly known, “ Mangtewn.” The financial partnership was to be immediate and absolate, and the matri- monial one prospective and contingent. The arrangement suited him; they rented the hotel, and she started down fo Saeramento to buy some necessary articles for the bar before going She took his money with did mot come back. He borrowed zs from an acquaintance, followed her down to Sacramento, and there learned that she Bad gone to “the Bay,” in company with a fellow known as Sandy Bob, who came out with her from New York, and who, if he was met her husband, ought to have been. No use gving any farther after her. After his borrowed fifty dollars were all ex- pended, he got a situation as “assistant bull- whacker” on an ex-train, and made his way 0) a wn, where he came across a friend, ‘who took him into partnership in a placer gold: aim, then suppesed to be worthless. y ‘strock it rich” in two weeks, sold oat for a “big stake,” and started for San Franciseo. @m ibe way down the Sacramento river on a steamer, Concatenation Bill took «fhand in a game of draw-poker, just to pass away the time, and, not only lost every cent of his own money, but all bis partner's share as well. In San Francisco be had varied adventures, finding empicyment in a dozen different kinds of Business, only to be thrown out of it by some un Yertunate oceurrence, and find himself ‘‘dead broke” every time. ite went to Frazer River. gad came back broke; then to Washoe, and game back broke again’ Then he made his way @outhward, Sebed for sharks, and gathered abatones at San Pedro, and, after a time, made bimeelf generally useless upon a stock-rancho ‘The Arizona gold excitement of 1862-63 took across the desert to the Colorado river.

The first day’s business was a success, and he ‘entertained bigh hopes of a ebange of fortune for the better. Vain hope! On the second day a man came into his shanty for a drink, and fell down dead from heart-dis- ease before reaching the counter. The rumor went abroad suddenly that the respected and lamented deceased—who had immigrated from Northern California or Southern Oregon on eount of a prospective lawsuit involving the title to a horse—had died just after, instead of just tefore, swallowing a glass of Concatenation ‘Bins best'whuskey. ft was warm weather, and id and copper seekers of that district were time an excitable set, with ue whole- some restraint on their conduct in the shape of eourts and legal enactments. In an hour men were examining bis stock, and testing it as &@ committee of the whole, by way of deciding whether it would kill or not. It did not directly Kill those who drank it then and there without ying for it; but it led toa fight, in which two mest miners were “laid out,” with bullet- holes through them; and the indignant citizens, with the crude ideas of justice then prevailing, held Bill responsible for the result, and, when the row was over, organized a vigilance com- ‘thus obtained, he started a smal! muttee with the determination of “‘ tor Bim” as soon as daylight came, to enable bry to beatup his biding place Inthe chapparal. Lackily for him, he learned oftheir amiable in- tentions in season, and, before meceing broke ever the Weaver Mountains, he broke in that @reetion himself. ‘They heard from him next by a Mexican, who met him at Granite Wash, forty miles eastward of the river, and, having cooled down a little meantime, concluded not to pursue him. Next he turned up at Wickenburg, on the Massiyampi. Wickenburg was a lively place at that time. Jack Snelling was a capital fellow, but inclined to be too playful at times, and in- d@ulge in little practica! jokes, which usually re- sulted in somebody being sent out of town per- Sorated like a colander. Jack was festively in- lined on the day on which our friend arrived, and had been around town and compelled all the traders to close their shops and go home, on pain of mstant death. As Coacatenation Bil! rode down the single long street which formed the city, Jack sighted him, and, mistaking him for a man who bad once insulted him by refus- ing to drink with him§‘went for him” the mo- ment he dismounted, and thrashed him within an inch of his life betore he discovered his mis- take. Concatanation Bill accepted Jack’s apology anda drink, but thought business too lively to be permanent in Wickenburg, washed the blood from his face, bound a piece of raw beet upon one of his eyes, and started on next morning before sunrise. In the course of his travels he was sean at Hooper & Co.'s store, on the Gila, and for some time he was at home at Tucson. ‘Two or three sears after the adventare at La Paz, Concatenation Bill came down Bill Wil liam’s Fork from Dale Ureek and Prescott, and for some weeks was one of the fixtures of the copper-mining camp at the Great Central and Planet mines, twelve miles above the mouth of the Fork, near Aubrey city. Nobody asked bim te stop, and nobody seemed to care to ask him to leave; so be partook of the hospitalitice of the camp, never missing a meal, nor paying @ecent, day after day and night’after night, until it wae whispered around among ‘the winers that he was a heavy stockholder tn the company, and that it would be well to keep on the side of bim.

When he commenced the Story, the stranger, who was lying some feet | away, hstened attentively for a few minutes, | ard then slowly rose to a sitting position, and then te his feet. As the story progressed he moved quietly toward the spot wi Bill was lying, and startled that worthy by sudden!y ap- pearing over him, towering up like a giant in | the moonlight, andevery feature convulsed with | excitement. “ You did that, stranger?” he exclaimed with stentorian lungs, and accents indicative of rage repressed until itwas atthe point of bursting | ‘m. « Yes, me!” was Bill's reply, delivered in a slightly less confident tone. be stranger jum ‘bout four feet into the air, cracked his heels together #0 that the re- ogg sounded like the firing of a musket, swung ‘is revolver around to the front so as to be ready for instant use, and, as he came down, fairly yelled: | Weil, by the great horn spoon, stranger, that is snguiar! I hope I may be sunk in—— this minute if there was but one white man thar, an’ I'm the man!” ‘The camp was asstill as death in an instant.

There are two ways ot staining common wood to a walnet or any other color—one with water- color and one with oil; we prefer the latter. To Stain with water-color. a decoction is made of Fernambuck, Brazil, or any other dyewood or bark of sufficient strangth fo give the desired shade, accor: to the nature of the wood to be stained and that you wish to imitate. It is put on with a brush. To stain with oil, you mix raw inseed oil with either —- brown, raw or burnt umber, raw or burnt sienna, or & mixture | of these or other paints of the desired shade. apd put it on thin with a brush also. After dryitg, you put on one or two coats of some brown transparent varnish, and this finishes the | job. Inregard to the staining with water-color, ou have to ofl it when dry, and, afterthe oil is | ay. you put on your varnish. In regard to sizing, this is not to recommended when wood is stained and not “painted. Yon must take into account that si- zing is only done to save the more expensive oil, as it prevents it from ponetrating the wood, and asingle ceat of paint will then same effect as three coats without si: not so durable, as itis apt to peel off; the of paint not being united with the wood, separated from it by a layer of glae, which by wi | coat | but A Parisian Exrertunce.—After my ao dinner, I was strolling along the quays near parapet. “She ‘arned as was pasa parapet. $ asl was in the lamp from the opposite of ries shone in her face. fae honest and homely, but so careworn, 80 utterly hopeless that I stopped to ask her if shewas ill. “Only tired and bungry,” she replied; “I have been walking all da) and have not eaten since yes- terday.” I took her to a cafe and gave her some bread. and coffee, and then she told me her over the her, and e Tuille- At the com- been discharged, | and for some days found Cp a oa in a gov- | ernment workshop, but for the last three weeks | she had wandered bere and there vainly asking forwork.

ONE oF WINTER’s EnjoyMEntT.—If you are & member ef that mysterious circle called ‘‘So- ciety,” there will be some painful evenings spent in doing your duty, standing in a crowd, with white kid gloves on your hands and weari- ness in — heart. We call this enjoying our- selves. You know all about it. Your shoes pinch you, but you cannot sit down. Your com: m bores you, but you must listen and smile, and smile and listen. If you try to move about, you tread on thirteen hideous dress ins, that drag themselves like halt-dead boa constrictors at the heels of their fair pos- sessors.
