Love For 4HE DEAD. The love that
survives the tomb, says Irving. is one Of
the noblest attributes Of the soul. fit
has its woes,it has also it's delights; and
whenlt this overwhelming burst Of grief is
calmed into-the gentle tear Of recollec>
ton, then the sudden anguish and con,
vulsed agony over the present ruins Of
all that we most loved, are softened into
pensive medtations on all that was dear
insthe day Of its loveine So. Who would
roo! such a sorrow from the heart, tho :
il may sometimes throw passing cloud
over the brigth hour Of gayety, or spread
a deepersa.dnes over the hour of gloom;
yet who would exchange it even for the
song of pleasure OF the burst iofrevelry?
No. there is a voice from the tomb
sweetar than song; there is a remem.
brance Of the dead TO which we turn even
from the charm of the living. s'''s

Declirity of RirerS A very slight
ieclivity will suffice to give the running

Of the Hmalaya mountains, the loftlest

miles from It's mouth, only eight hun
dred feet above the level of the sea (;
that is about twice as high as ST PauI's

eight hundred feet in its long course
the water requires more than a month.
The great river MagdaIena, in south

only five hundred feet in all that dis
