The LErrrNc.-The letting Of the
Wabash and Erie canal, from Fort
Wayne to the State Line, closed on the
evening of the lst inst. We have as
yet, been unable to learn the precise re-
suit, but sufficient is known to warrant
the conclusion that the whole distance is
let, and at prices which, taking into con-
sideration the high price Of labor and
provisions, are quite reasonable. We
had feared that the latter circumstance
would deter contractors from offering
proposals, or induce them to propose at
SO high prices, that the Acting Commits
sioner would not feel authorised to allow
them; but are happy to learn that our
apprehensions were groundless. The
work will be commenced forthwith, rnd
in less than two years will be completed.

A RIDDLE.--oRIaINAL.

II
s'Twas whispered in Heaven, twas mutter'd
in Hell,
And Echo caught family, the sound as it fell.
In the whirlwinds ofearth it loftily rose,
And was sigh'd in the zephyr which balmily
blows.
Twas not felt in the wind that blows heavy
and chill,
But was sung in the notes of the sweet whip
poor-will.
1t shone not in the sun which lights up the
day,
Nor illum'd the pale moon in her evening ar
ray.
Twas not found in the palace, but repos'd on
the throne,
And was breath d in the soft thrilling accents
of home. ~
In the cottagers hut, it was brightly reveal'd,
Yet within the Lords mansion twas deeply
conceal'd.
Twas not in the son, but was found in the
child;
While to boy and to girl it remain d unreveal'd
In husband twas foremost but existless in
wife:
Its home was in Heaven for it dwel't not in
life.
1t stood by the couch and caught the last
breath
OF the sinner and saint, and was last in their
death.
It fash'd in the lightning, it groand in the
thunder,
But it caused no alarm nor raised even Won
1t was borne in the ship o'er the tremuloua
ocean,
But was lost in the rage ofthe billow's commo-
tion.
To the -present-future its name was a
stranger,
And it never stood by to remind us of danger.
In the anchorites cell, in the hermits rude cave,
1t ponder'd misanthropic thoughts ofthe grave.
Neither virtue, nor vice, nor religion could own
A name which help'd make the dark Atheists
known. . ~
Twas not found in the mind, but was first in
the heart, NH
Examine it well, then the riddle impart.

have, nor never shall insert into its columns,
an article or sentiment, that shall call
blush on the cheek of beauty. Humor, wit
and pleasure, may always be found and Of the
most enticng nature, without swerving from
modesty, and derding morals or religion, and
of such cast shall ours be.
Besides embracing all that we have stated

| We hope our friends in the country will assist
us in extending our circulation, that we may
at once commence our intended Improvements.
