Coming events are said to cast
their shadows before. Is not this
the case in relation to the vast and
almost indefinite expansion of our
republic of confederatcd States,
blended into one mighty nation for
great and common purposes and yet
preserving their sepcrate identity in
reference to local and domestic af-
fairs? When we emerged from our
colonial State, through a war ofrev-
olution, peril and suffering, into the
triumphant condition of national in
dependence, we numbered but thir-
teen States, with population of but
three millions, and owned terrific
ry encompassed by the stormy At
lantic on the East, the father of riv-
crs on the West, the great Lakes on
the North, and foreign power on
the South, bordering the Mexican
Gulf and commanding the mouth of
the Mississippi, the great outlet of
our Western commerce. In less
than seventy years with what gigan-
tic strides have we marched to
strength and greatness! Our North
ern and Eastern bomdries remain
ing as they were, in the great out
lines impressed by nature, the &C
QUESTION Of Louisiana and Florida,
obtained by peaceful negotiation and
purchase, has given us the mouth Of
the Mississippi, and the secure nat
ural boundary of the Gulf Of Mexi-
co; and both maritime discovery
and exploration by land and river
have yielded us a title to transcend
the Rocky Mountains and claim the
vast Pacific as our Western bound
ry. Recent negotiation, too, has-ad-

THE "TI,REE sIXEs.,
A PILOTS DREAM
BY PHAN rzMA.

Strange and wild are the stories
known and passing current among
the rough navigators of the western
waters. Many common ear is re-
called with rich material for novel
and romance, and many an original
and natural drama lies slumbering
untold, save now and then when a
tedious hour between watches on
the boiler deck may happen to let
loose the tongue of the story teller.
The following most strange and re-
markable relation is eminently cal
culated to make the eyes start and
the hair stand and although par
taking in huge extreme of the ex-
travagant, yet that is just "such
stuff as dreams are made Of" and
there are few of us that have known
even stranger stories in sleep, tho
they pass away and are forgotten
in our waking moments.
Discarding further preliminary
our pilot shall now tell his own sto-
ry. No matter where and when it
was, but conversation once turn
