DecliVity Of Rivers.

A very slight decHvity will suffice
to give the running motion to water.
Three inches, per mile in smooth
strait channel, gives velocity of about
three miles an hour. The Ganges,
which gathers the waters of the Hima.

world at eighteen hundred miles fronm
its mouth, is only eighteen hundred feet
above the level Of The sea; that's. about
twice as high asst. Paups Church in
London, and to fall these eight hundred
feet it in a long course, the water re-
quires more thanea month. The great
river Magdalena, in South America,
running for d thousand miles between
two ridges of Andes, falls only five
hundren feet in all the distance. Above
the commencement of, The thousand
miles it is. seen descending in rapids
.and cataracts from the mountains.

gentle descent to the ocean, that in

The Last Day Of Eve.

IT approached the evening twilight.
The mother Of mankind was placed by
her descendants 10 front Of her tent, re-
clining on rude couch. The western
wind famed her pale cheek and played
amidst her grey locks. Near her sat
her husband. Eve turned her eye upon
him with look Of sadness, yet of deep
affection, and as she saw his wrinkled
brow, bent form, and head of snowy
whiteness, seemed to call to her mind
other days. hss
lnwardly she reproached herself, "Ah,
not thus was it saw him when given TO
lin by our God. Where has vanished
that manly form where is the elastic
step-where the eye that beamed with
brightness-whefe now the rich and
mellow voice? Alas, how changed !!
And it was who tempted, who destroy

beauty he then gazed with ursated de-

Our mother was overcome by the rusl
of recollections. Her eyes, long dry
found new fountains, and her aged fora
shook with deep emotion. a

An appeal for the Cause Of Education.

.r. 7s MEASURES PEOPOSED. s..
"Not enjoyment, and not sorrow,
Is our destined end or way, Cd,
But to act that each tomorrow
Find US farther than TO day. "a
LoNGrsLLow.
To THE PEOPLE OF ONO:
1--WE hold these truths to be self evil
dent: that all men are created equal; that
they are endowed by their creator with
certain inalienab4e rights; that among
these are life, liberty. and the pursuit oI
happiness; that to secure. these, rights,
governments are instituted among men,
deriving their just powers from the con
sent ofthe!governed.' Such is the Ian
guage Of the Declaration Of lndepend-
ence. But what worth has life, if it be
that OF brute? or of what value is lib
erty, if it be that Of wild beast? Of
what avails mans pursuit of happiness
when he knows not the path wherein i
is found?
! Every man should Hive as if conscious
Of immortal powers: wisely regulated
Liberty is alone desirable; and he bu
vainly strives in the pursuit ofhappiness
who is without the guidance Of a well in
|structed mind, 1t is Of wisdom that it il
said "her ways are ways OF pleasant
ness, and all her paths are peace -
The promotion, therefore, Of mental i'm
provement--the diffusion Of knowledge
the encouragement of virtuous habits
--or, in other words, the great business
Of Education on:-how can this be augh
else than the most worthy care of 1
free government? r@@ffE
That any man should refuse his as,
sent to these truths. is to me mos
strange. As for those men, who be
come members Of the General Assembly
lof Ohio. and who thus have the power t
legislate upon the subject, their assen
is already given when they have takel
the official oath which requires them t.
support the constitution of the State

Of the constitution Of Ohio contains these
words: s,, s,e -.r
