4 Traveller through dusty road
Strewed acorns on the lea,
And one took root and sprouied up,
And grew into a tree.
Love sought its shade at evening time,
To breath it's early vows.
And age was pleased, in heats OF noon,
To bask beneath its boughs
The dormouse loved its dangling twigs,
The birds sweet music bore.
I, stood glory in it's pla ce,
A blessing cvermore
A little spring had lost it's way
Amid the grass and fern,
A passing stranger scoop'd we'll,
Where weary men might turn

But judged that toll might drink.

But strong in being true;

A watch-fre on the hill;

And cheers the valley still

That throng'd the daily mart,

SURGICAL OPERATION BY Dr.. Morr.-
We find the following brief report Of an
operation by Doctor Mott. at the New York
University few days ago, in Noah S
Sunday Times:
A young man had a tumor growing out
of one of his nostrils. 1t came. in time.
to fill the whole cavity, and was as large
as hens egg. !; was SO large, and SO
extensively and firmly attached that i: was
impossible to pull it out with forceps. as is
done with polypi. The worthy professor
put on his considering cap and studied
out an operation; and then. to make sure.
he performed it on dead body. Satisfied
Of its practicability. he began:-First. he
made straight incision from the inner
corner Of the eye to the mouth, through
the upper lip: then he dissecied the flesh
from the bone. as 10 turn all the feshy
part of the nose over upon the other side
Of the face. This done, he sawed thro'
the bone, and by nice piece Of carpen-
ter work, laid open the whole extent of the
nostril. The tumor was nov, exposed.
cut loose. and easily extracted. and the
patient got web withou, any disapPoint-
ment but line where the feshy parts were
reunited. This was an ingenious, bold,
and successful operation.

Z. TAYLOR.

One Of the Missionaries at California.
whose letter appears in the Home Mis-
sionarv. enumerates among the difficulties
of his work that the population is almost
entirely males. He says:
"Perhaps one in every eighty or hun
dred may be female. BY the steamers
the average number of ladies may have
been four among three hundred. By
sailing vessels. the proportion is still less.
OF course, for the thousands Of San Fran
cisco, there are comparatively but few te
males. The foundation Of good society
must then be wanting. Men withou,
families, and men whose wives and child
rem are thousands of miles distant. will
take but little if any interest in schools.
And must not decentralization rapidly take
place in the absence Of fsmily and female
i fluencesl''

Railroad from indianapolis to Gin

incident to the close Of the late legislatures
we are informed bill was passed enti-

construct a Railroad from Rushville to

Company may construct road from
Rushvillc to any point on the Nation al

signed to enable the making road from
Rushville to indianapolis. and thus TO
constitute the last link in the Road from
Cincinnati to indianapolis. II such q
bill did pass, it was without the knowl.

a similar character had been defeated pre-.
