Clough, a wefl known en gineer of the Comstock, haa been •neodinf aotne weeks in thb wilds of the Sierrot, about the bend waters of the Kawenh river. Tutare county, Cal ifornia. He was accompanied in his wanderings by Westley Warren, au old Cotnstoeker, who now resides in Tulare valley. About the headwaters of tbe Kaweoh they got into an unex plored and almost impenetrable re gion. In one place they were obliged to cut a trail for almoat a mile in or der to get through the cha|Mtreal that blockaded-the mountain paa*. Mr. Clough says that ou the trip they dis covered a tree of acquoia specira, which be believce to be much the largest on tbe continent of America. Mr. Warren/ who lias seen the big treeu of Mariptae, thnao of the bi^ tree grove in Calaveras county, and all the big trees of tlte coast range, says there is iu no place in California a tree which approaches iu site that on the Weak The men had with them no rule, Upeline or measure of any kind, but Mr. Warren measured the tree with his rifle, which was four feet in length. He fouud it to be forty four lengths of his guu in circumfervuce at a point as high above the ground as lie could roach. Tho top of the tree had been broken off. but it is atilt of unnieiiNe height. Tliis monster tree stands in a small basin near the Ksweah. and is surrounded on all sides by a wall of huge, rugged rocks. There’is so much brush iu the vicinity lluil the little valley in which the tire stands is al most inaccessible. - Amador Sentinel. $\Prac<tcaf Watchmaker.

The timcpicea was made at Amucrdam in 168u by Andrian Bngliyu and ia a marvel of K 'ninMiii. It atauds twelve feet . The case is of bird's eye black walnut and on the lop of it stand throe golden statuettes. The central figure represents Atlas bending bcuealn the weight of a miniature globs. The right and left IIgures are counterparts of Gabriel iu the act of blowing his trumpet. When wound the clock runs eight days. D gives the day of the mouth with the phases of the moon as well as the hour, and strikes every quarter. Considering that it has been ticking away the hours for over two centuries, it keens reiuarksbie time and ia iu a wonderful state of preser vation. It luu an air of peal ages about it and is undoubtedly s histori cal landmark of post centuries. —New York Telegram. A Uoottat for • fast.
