Tho Craat West


A Philadelphia paper remarks that "the
Great West is bus or THAN il ever was. -
II is true. Never was there so much work te
be done. so many forests to clear, so many
towns to be built, so many tunnels to be board
or so many railroads to he laid down. The
true work of tho West is only beginning.
The great country" which has been growing
up for the last twenty years. was bnt the pre-
liminarv step to the vast nation which is now
BEGINNING fully to develops itself west of the
Alleghenies. The enterprise, chiefly railroads
alreadp undertaken. will cost hundreds Of mil
lions ef dollars: their consequences. such as
New States, new cities. new towns, and still
more new railroads. will lead to any outlay of
rs much more. and thus there is an indefinite
amount of money to be laid out in improve.

all human apprehensons. But it must GO on.
until the whole territory is occupied from the
Alegbenies. 20 the Pacific, and can only end
when the territory is finished like the old coun-
tries of Europe.
But the drawback felt universally through
out the West is the scarcity of hands TO do the
work contemplated. The annual hundreds Of
thousands of emigrants from Europe are not
equal to it. They are lost in the vast territory
before them their labor, distributed over the
immense space is scarcely felt. We want
more laborers Let the thousands of poorly
paid halfstarved denizens Of the large eastern
cities swarm and scatter over the Great West.
Their labor will be sought and they will be cit

AUTUMN.

Autumn has again spread her golden hued
mantle over the vegetable kingdom. Summer
has been here with her sunshine and her flow
ers; yet we scarcely needed it. so quickly have
the chilling winds succeeded tho soft and ba my
breezes of Spring. Old Time has touched
each tree. shrub and flowret, of the primeval
forest. With his ice cold finger. and their bright
green foliage is changed to the russell livery of
Autumn.
The feathored tribes have spread their pin
IONS. and seem to form part of tho great path
less vault above, which none but they can
cent scene below them, but their fight is swift
ly onward to seek refuge in moro sunny
elmes.
What to them is tho glory above and around
them; they have not immortal minds to copo
with the wonders and sublimiiy of mighty
God, or to study tho mysteries of the universe,
as it was thrown into shape by tho hand of
Deity. In and on all things we read the
changing aspect of Earth Sad and melan-
choly Autumn succeeds the bright aud glori-
Gus Summer: sad and melancholy. but not
dreary and lonely, for it aff1rds rich repast
to thoughtful mind, to mediate on the sol
cmn granduer Of dccayng nature.
In each season we behold tho destiny of frail
man. Springtime presents TO us childhood,
gentle, joyous, and unsuspccting Summer
with its golden dreams of future happiness,
and Autumn. with its scared leaves and with
cred flowers, teach us that youth and beauty
soon must fade and die, and be hidden from
mortal view,by the cold aud silent tomb.
