A GREAT WoRK.-The City Of New
York is now engaged in great work of in
ternal improvement-one of vast magni-
tude and cost-but one which, If it had been
accomplished years ago, would have effect
ed saving of millions to the city, on the
score of fire alone. We refer to the Gro
ton Aqueduct, which is said TO be the great
est work ever undertaken in this country
The cost will come up to $l2, OOO, 900 be-
fore it is fully completed. About 1900
men are now employed upon it; and up
wards of FIVE million of dollars have already
been expended. It is to extend forty-two
miles through billy, rough, and rocky re-
gion. The receiving reservoir in the city
will cover thirty acres; and the water will
rise to the height Oft the City Hall. Pure
water, thing never enjoved there, will
now be furnished in abundance; and the
fires, which are constantly occurring there
will speedily be flooded and extingulshed

their faded lovelinessf Why is it that the
stars hold their festival around the midnight

is it that bright forms of human beauty are
presented to our view, and then are taken

Here's scrap from Isaac Walton, that
every one who reads it should cut out and
carry in his pocket.--Norfok Beacon.
"a companion that is cheerful, and free
from swearing and scurrilous DISCOURSE, Is
worth gold. Hove such mirth as Dies not
make friends ashamed to look upon one
another next morning, nor men that cannot
well bear it, to repent the money that they
spent when they be warmed with drink =
And take this for a rule: you may pick out
such times and such companions, that you
may make yourselves merrier for little
than great deal OF money-!or tits the
company, and not the charge, that makes
the feast.''
