The rumor Of last week relative to the
offer Of a Professorship TO NJ. Guirot BY the
University Of Oxford, is, We learn on in
curry, so far correct, that the limitations by
which i is now customary TO preface the
formal offer Of public appointments have
been made-and, as We understand, have
been declined. The Professorship, Offer
ed, however, was the new one founded by
Sir Robert Taylor for teaching and iBlPrOr,
ing modern IaRgHageS-we ventured tC
think that the chair offered to NJ. GuizOI
must needs have been one Of History. The
notion Of setting him to teach languages aP-
peared strange to us:-we did not then
know that there was chair for iSsPrOriRg
as well as teaching them. Perhaps the
University had the notion-to which We
ourselves incline-that the F.ench language
very much needs the improvement that
would ensue upon the restoration Of the
words Liberts, Egalite, Frateraite to Their
primitive meanings. However this may
be, we cannot but coincide in the opinion
Of contemporary to this extent-that, con.
sidering the nature Of the ProlessorshiP, We
think the offer was scarcely justifabie un
less the Board Of Curators had knOwledgt

THE MIRACLE OF MAIN.

DT MRS SARAH T. BOLTON
Brightly and silently the sunlight beams
Upon Judea's hills and wales and streams;
The sky is calm, the earth fair and bright
As il the curse Of sin had left blight
Upon its breasts yet there are tolls and fears,
COrrOding cares scared hopes and burning tsasI
And there dsrkened homes where lone ones keep
Vigil beside the dead and watch and weep
Through long, long hours; cen now funeral train
Winds slcwly, sadly through the gates Of Main.
The mourner IS a widow, bowed with grief
Teo deep to ask, OF seek, or hope relief
bad been happy; sls had heard the mirth
or joyous children round her quiet hearth.
But death, the strong ose, came, with fatal power,
To spoil that beautiful. domestic bower,
And from the home wh're JOY and peace were rife,
Her guide, the partner # herheart and life,
Passed out forever; thsn the blossoms fair,
The objects of mOthe's love and care
Faded away, till only one left.
Oh how that heart, sc broken, so bereft
OF all its idols, loved nat only child.
The fair, the beautiful the sndsflod.
He was bright. solitary beam.
or light and gladness life's turbid stresm.
The object of all hope, iesire and fear;
All, all the weary worh contained for her.
He grew in beautyi swiftly passed the hours
To youth, with all its deans and stars and flowers.
Then death insaiiats, Gained aDother prey,
And he, the last, the loveIest, passed away.
She saw his fading ehed, his failing brsaGhi
She the fatal sign md seal of death;
She knew the voice she loved so well was hushsd,
And still her heart bes on, wrecked, ruiDed crushed.
She had known toll sorrow, tears and cares
But not till then that dep, that dark despair,
That Leaves the victim, like vsssel tVst
Upon starless sea, where all is lost.
She gazed upon the face, so lifeless now,
She presSed one last, long kiss upon his brow,
And then went forth, to lay bis fair young head
In the lone city Of the silent dead.
But who is he, that wsy-worn traveleri
Whence came the man, and wherefore is he here
His brow is marred by weary tolls and cares,
Ard poor and humble is the garb he wears,
Why do the bearers Of the dead stand s,ill9
What are the wondeIous words that seem to thrill
The heart strings Of the hearers Is that breath
That stirs that pulseless bosom Mighty death!
The Son Of God hath spoken, thou hast heard,
And given up thy victim at his word.
And now, the lfe-tde rushes, free and warm,
Through every vein Of that cold pallid form.
The lip is tremulous, the brow grows bright,
Aud The dim eye resumes its wonted light.
Oh, who can tell the wild, the frantic joy,
or that fond mother o'er her living boy
And is the hue Of life upon his cheek'
And can he see, and hear and feel and speak
Great God in human form, whose mighty power
Called back the spirit in that triumph hour,
What shall we say, when thou shalt come again
With twice ten thousand angels in thy train,
To shake the solid earth, and rsnd the skies,
And bid the myriads Of the dead arise.

Since the public attention has been directed to this
main central route from Boston and New York to ST.
Louis, through Sandusky, Boefontane and Indianap-

the press and the people, both east and west and no
one now, doubts so far have heard or read, but
that IT is destined when constructed to become the
great thoroughre of travel and business through the
interior centre Of the west 1t may be gratifying to
the friends Of this great work to learn that the link
from Indianapolis to the Ohio line, will be certainly
made with the least possible delay. The books were
only opened for subscriptions on the first of this
month, and already $2l0, 900 or more than one
third Of the Whole stock necessary to complete the
work to the Ohio line, has been taken, and the SUBJ
scriPtions are still actively being made. So that
hazard little in believing that within the first thirty
days. there will be stock enough taken to complete
