| KRIAL NAyIG ATIoN-Could an Eronaut pic
ture in words. the scenes that would meet hi:
eye as in a sunny day, he hung some three OF
four thousand feet above this city, beneath hi.
Tiny cloud of silk, Imagination might fold hel
! wings in repose. There would be nothing fol
her to add-no deeper tint of glofy-no taire,
shapes of beauty.
| The Eronaut feels no sensation of giddness
as when he looks drown from dizzy cliffs. He
rises above the roofs, the trees, tho spires, and
| then, as it seems TO him. hangs motionless. Hi:
horizon widehs away in rings of blue vision; ring
after ring, like The concentric circles of all agta
ted lake, and as he looks beneath him, the world
seems sinking down almost to the ends of the
sun-beams. Earth in huge basin, wherein
sparkles great city and an island sea the prai-
RE stretches away around it, forests rise with
in it; rivers glitter through it. Down goes the
basin, borne by an unseen hand, as if Earth we're
withdrawing her offering to morning and the Sun.
How the city changes Now checker-board
upon balze covered table.
The taze grows finer, and finer woven in the
loom of distance. 1t is green velvet-it is Stlk
velvet. The checker-board is map; It's streets
are lines; It's roofs are dots its spires are noh-
ing. The map is picture, a cabinet picture Il
miniature, locket, bit of jewelry, a sparkle of
sand, a-nothing
The magic is waring still! The River ,ras
dull and cloudy water skein OF silver; the
skeln, wire: the wire thread the thread, a
stray, and silver hair from the tress OF Time ; the
hair, film; the film, nothing!
And the Lake too but now great sea, with
a constellation Of great stars stretching away to
the northeast, on TO the gttering coast of Lab
rad0r, Is huge fragment of some prncelY pier
glass. The peirgIaSs Is a toilet mirror, the toll
ct mirror is a Dentists broken glass the brok-
en- glass Is an idle, shapeless trinket; the trink-
ct speck of carbon or spark of diamond by
turns.
The basin narrows to a little cup ii seems a
rare and topic flower, city for its anther, "a lake
a prairie, whole world for its petals That
fades out: trnket that child might wear Il
banble and nothing.
Now rocks the Eronant upon the cloudy sea,
and floats helpless atom on the bosom Of the
winds.
A rent in the tapping silk A collapse Of the
man-made cloud The little boat swing! Down
comes the Dreamer, and away 90 his Visions
Like some bird swooping to its quarry; like that
quarry, "a od-drpping wreck" a faint splash
in the Lake--a bubble in It's waters, and where's
the sky-swecper now ?--Chicago Jorunai.

A WFE.-When a man of sense comes to
marry, it is u companion whom he wants not an
artist. 1t is not merely creature who can paint
and play and sing it is being who can comfort
and counsel him, one who can reason and re-
fleet and feel and Judge, and discriminate, one
who can assist him in his affairs, tighten his sor-
rows, purify his joys, strengthen his principles,
and ed lcate his children. Such is the woman
who is fit for mother, and the mistress of
family Awoman of the former description may
occasionally figure in the drawing room, and
attract the admiration of the Company, but she
is entirely unfit for hclp-mate to a man, and to
"tran up child in the way he should GO"
Death is often a mysterious beautiier OF hu-
man ineamonts, and marvelousy did it alter
those of the great Napoleon. When he was dis

contrast with the recollection of his great ac- /
