A DREAM.

The Importance OF individual action
and value of the unit constituting large
SUMS, Is very faithfully and eo Iuently
illustrated in the annexed dream, which
at a.meeling 10 Ohio, for the promo
lion of the cause OF education, DR..
Beecher related.
lie said he had a dream, which like
other dreams d'd not wholly explain
itself, ana in which some OF the natur-
al objects had The power of speech.
He was travelling near the sources OF
the Mononsaheia. and in passing over
rough country, at every short dis
trnce, he met Il little stream which he
could step over, but all of them were
going the same way. At last lie asked
one where he was going. "Why,' re-
pied The little rilI, II am going 10 New
Orleans. | heard the people there
want great canal, Il thousand miles
long, ANA fifteen hunAred feet wide, ,and
am going to help make IT," sand
pray what can you do!' 81 don't know
what can do; but / shall be there. ;
And So saying. il hurried on.
He came To another, and asked the
slme queSti N. and received the same
answer. All were hurrying on TO
make the grand canal, on which The
steamships Of the West with their hca-
Wy burdens were to be transported.
AT the heads Of the Allegheny, the SCI
olo and the Mississippi, be ound thou
Sanls more of ftiul streams. and which,
While he yet spoke 10 them, hurried out
of sight. None knew what he could
do, but all were determined TO do
something. He passed on to the migh-
ty Mississippi, and there he found the
canal was made! The noble steam
ships rode proudly on its surface, and
as lis waters diminished. they were a.
gain repenishel to the bri,n, by every
mountain spring and every stream.--
Thus do the title rilIs make the stream
the stream the river, till the united wa.
lers of the whole pour on their, way
rejoicing, to the glorious ocean. So is
man in the mass, aud the mass to the
grand tide Of human affairs. Each lie
tie mortal, weak and weary though he
be, can do something in making up the
mi hty stream Of human events, as it
rolls to the ocean of eternity. ~

Doctor DINA said it had been objected,
tina; the construction of road at this time
would involve an unnecessary cxpcnse in
the purchase Of rails, owing to the tempo
rary rise Of Iron. Ii was sufficient 10
answer however, thai before the grading
of the road could be accomplished the
price would probably b. reduced 10 its
natural standard. But .ciM proper en-.
te7priss zoe could manufacture our oun
Iron. In Rutland, Brandon, MddIebrry

water power 20 sustain Rolling Mills and
other requisite machinery. Every ad-
