This occurred in the neighborhood of the Railway Junction. If these young hunters are not more careful as to the pl&oe for the trial of their skill, some of them will come to .grief.

On Sunday ng the Bible "we" struck last on openithe following . we took teams may have been observed wending their way westward loaded with ice. Mother Eve was an ancestress of ours, so we have come honestly and naturally by the gift of curiosity. It it a gift, gentlemen, and when rightly applied, one that brings much good to mankind. Well, we do not. wish to dilate on that point, at present, but wish to say that our natural enriosrtty; rriherrferWs we have stated anl excited by ice, induced us to "paddle our own canoe"' on a voyage of discovery. We "wended our way" westward, and at the furthest extremity of Tithing Office Street saw a large frame building, about which we learned the following particulars: The C. IV R. R. Company have erected the building referred to at a cost of over $5,000 for an ice house. It is 100 ft by 40 ft. and the sides are 10 ft. in height, with a 35 ft. roof. The floor is double, containing ten inphes of sawdust; it is built on sills and there are four inches more sawdust between it and the ground. The sides are treble, containing eight inches of sawdust between the divisions. The house is calculated to hold 2000 tons of ice; about 1000 tons being already deposited there. It is being taken from by men employed Mayor Farr's mill-rac- e who saw the it into blocks, Company by and load it into the wagons;' teamsters getting 75 cents, per load for hauling it to the iee house.' It is there received by the Company's hands and fitted together as closely as possible, the interstices being filled up with broken particles, with the object of freezing it into a solid mass. About 30 wagons and 100 men are employed on the job, and have been for several days; but the ice is getting thinner, and the' manager is rather dubious about being able to fill the building and the bill 2,000 tons inconsequence of the thaw, which has already reduced the ice in the stream, from 16 inches to a foot in thickness. The object of the company is not to make a big speculation by transporting this ice to California, but to supply the line west of this place with wholesome water for use during the coming summer, a considerable portion of the route being through a country where the streams are all more or less impregnated with alkali. This is a wise move, and shows . the forethought and good management of the C. IV Company. ; If the weather permits, which is quite possible yet, some of our enterprising citizensniijht make a good thing out of ice. It is in a great demand in California during the summer, and the railroaoTfurn-ishe- s speedy means of .transportation. It is brought to California all the way from Alaska, the territory recently required from the Russian government, and if jt pays to ship it from J hat distance, it ought surely to pay to rail it from Utah. If this season is too far advanced, there are others to come, and our own citizens should make preparations to take advantage of every opening for profitable business. If they do not, strangers will come .along with sharp eyes and speculative brains, and make bemeans out of thinp- which wildlong to those who have turned the erness into a fruitful field, and the solitary place into- - a pleasant habitation. The foregoing description of the C. P. Company's mode of preserving the pre cious element, may serve as. a hint to some of our friends in other places as well as Ogden, and to tiom we dedicate our short article on an ico subject. . pri-p-rl- see what there was to be seen. We were rewarded for our sloppy walk- - for Og den it a sloppy neighborhood in a thawing time like the present by the sight of two new cars which had just, come in from the East. Mr. Saml. Hills and Mr. S. Jonasson, the gentlemanly agents of the U. C. R. R. kindly introduced us to the new arrivals. The two cars were built expressly for the Utah Central, by the New Haven Car Company, Connecticut. They are well built and very handsomely got up. The interior of each is panelled with polished birdseye maple and black walnut, the tapestry on the roof is bright colored, but "neat and not gaudy," the lamps are elegant and the seats comfortable, being reversible and without locks, and covered with crimson plush backed with green. Each car is well ventilated and tilled up with stove, water tank, private room, and every necessary convenience. But the sight which gladdened our eyes the most was twenty tons of spikes, which came in at the same time as the passenger cars, and which arc much needed to make the people's road firm and substantial. These spikes will be received with gladness by all the officials of the road. A special agent came from Chicago in charge of the cars and spikes. AVe wish to observe, for the benefit of those who may be disposed to grin at at our taking the trouble to describe a kind of cars with which every railroad traveler in the States is familiar, that the above is written for the information of our country cousins who have not been blest with snch opportunities as they the grinners, have, and who, we are sure, will appreciate our effort. e H bet-we- en i' .

Dr. Fayer, an English physician in India, communicates to the Indian Medical Gazelle an extraordinary caseof effects of imagination on the physical system. He says : Some time ago, on visiting the hospital one morning, I was told that a man had been admitted during the night sufand that he fering from a snake-bitwas very low. I found him in a state of great prostration. He was hardly able to speak, and seemed to be in a state of great depression. He and Jus friends said that, during the night, in going into his hut, a snake bit him in the foot; that he was much alarmed, and rapidly passed into a "state of insensibility, when they brought him to the hospital. They and he considered that he was dying, and evidently regarded his condition ns hopeless. On being asked for a description of the snake,,, they said they had caught it and brought it with them in a bottle. The bottle was produced, and the snake turned out to be a small, innocent lyoodon. It was alive, though somewhat injured by the treatment it had received. On explaining to the man and his friends that it was harmless, and with some difuculfy ranking them be lieve it, the symptoms of poisoning rap idly disappeared, and he left the 'hospital as well as ever he was in his life iua , few hours.
