NIKE WALSH IN New YORK, The "area
of freedom" having been extended to this &C.
centric individual, by which he has escaped
from confinement on Blackwell's Island, his
friends, to the number of 1000, met in the
Park on Monday to congratulate him. Mikes
speech on the occasion was, as his speeches
usually are, full Of ability, yituperation and
slang. The following very correct estimate Of
him we take from the Tribune.
"Mike has a massive brain; and when his
system is comparatively free from other intlu-
ences the intellectual aura induces his express
sive features with a rather agreeable expression.
When he speaks, however, the charm Is at
once broken for he mouths his words horribly,
and his language is from long and unworthy ha-
bit modulated to the comprehension of those
without comprehension. Mike, with all his
brains and all his talents, has become sort OF
monomaniac and believes that all the world are
in a conspiracy against him, when the fact is,
that he is his own worst enemy. His speech,
like the resolutions, abound in severe language
aimed at a portion ofhs own party, and which
was doubtless in many respects well deserved
But this extravaganza bitterness Of denuncia-
ton and coarseness of epithet constantly defeat
his purpose and withdraw from the facts he
Yields that attention which they we'll deserve.

WHAT O'clock IS IT?-When | was
a young lad, my father one day called
me to him that he might teach me how to
know what o'clock it was. He told me
the use of the minute finger, and the hour
hand, and described to me the figures on
the dial plate, until | was pretty perfect in
my part.
No sooner was quite master Of this
additional knowledge, than set off scam
pering to join my companions at a game
of marbles; but my father called me back
again: stop, Humphrey" said he, al
have something more to tell you"
Back again | went, wondering what else
had got to learn for thought | knew
all about the clock, quite as well as my
father did.
Humphrey" said he, " have taught
you to know the time Of the day, must
now teach you how to find out the time
of your life.
All this was strange to me, so | waited
rather impatienty to hear how my father
would explain it, for ! wanted sadly to go
to my marbles,
"The Bible," says he, "describes the
wears of man to be three-score and ten, or
four score years Now, life is very uncer
tain, and you may not live single day
longer; but if we divide the four.score
wears Of mans life into twelve parts, like
the dial of clock, it will allow almost
seven years for every figure. When a boy
is seven years old, then it is one o'clock Of
his life, and this is the case with you.
When you arrive at fourteen years, it will
be two O'Clock with you; and when at
twenty-one years it will be three o'clock,
should it please God thus to spare your
life. In this manner you may thus know
the time of your life, and looking at the
clock may perhaps remind you of it. My
great grandfather, according to his cacu-
tion, died at IL o'clock; my grandfather
at eleven, and my father at ten, AT what

A Beautiful Incident.

| On beautiful summers day clergy
man was called to preach in town in In.
diana, to young Episcopal congregation
At the close of the discourse, he addressed
his young hearers in such words as these !;
"Learn that the present life is prepa-
ration for and has tendency to eternity.
The present is linked to the future through
out creation, in the vegetable, in the ami
NAL, and in the moral world As is the
seed, so is the fruit; as is the egg, so is
the fowl; as is the boy, so is the man; and
as is the rational being in this world, SO
will he be in the next; Dives estranged
from God here, is Dives from God in the
next, and Enoch walking with God here
is Enoch walking with God in calm and
better world. Go to the worm that you
tread upon, and learn lesson of wisdom
The very caterpillar seeks the food that
fosters it for another and similar state, and
more wisely than man, builds its own Sc
pulchre from whence in time, by kind Of
resurrection, it comes forth new creature
in almost an angelic form. And, now that
which crawled, flies, and that which fed
on comparatively gross food, sips the dew
that revels in the rich pastures-an en-
blem of that paradise where flows the river
of life, and grows the tree of life. Could
the caterpillar have been diverted from its
proper element and model of life-if it had
never attained the butterfy's splendid form
and hue, it had perished worthless worm.
Consider her ways and be wise. Let it
not be said that yc are more negligent than
worms, and our reason is less available
than their instinct. As often as the butter
Hy fits across your path, remember that it
whispers in its ffight-'Liye for the Fu-
ture.0
With this the preacher closed his dis
course; but TO deepen the impression, a
butterfly, directed by the Hand which
guides alike the sun and an atom in its
course, futtered through the church, as if
commissioned by Heaven to repeat the ex-
hortation. There was neither speech nor
language, but its voice was heard saying to
the gazing audience" Live for the Fu-
ture"
