METROPOLITAN RAlLRGAD.-A corps Of engi-
neers lave been examining different routes be-
tween Georgetown and the gap in the noun
tain east of Middletown. Md, for the above
named railroad. 1t appears from their sur
teys, that an air line from Middletown to
Georgetown will be twelve miles shorter than
by Frederick city, and that PARIS ridge, which
is so great an obstacle, may be almost avoided
by passing the western portion of it, which runs
out at the Potomac river, thus saving some :
or $1,000 to the company. 1t is also said that
the mountain east of the'samc place, and south
OF the turnpike can be overcome by a deepc
or short tunnel Of about 2OO yards in length
and grade of 80 feet to the mile
LOCOMOTIVE ENGINE MAKISG-The directors

WHAT Is PRAYER ?
BY JAMES MONTGOMERY.


s. Prayer is the souls sincere desire,
a l Utter or expressed
The motion of a hidden fire
f5 That trembles in the breast. ;sii I
Prayer is the burden of a sigh
t"~i The falling of tear
The upward glancing of an eye,
When none but God is near.
- Prayer is the simplest formof speech
That infant lips can try;
g. Prayer, the sublimest strains that reach
The Majesty on high.
Hss1c
Prayer is the Christians vital breath,
The Christians native air
His watchword at the gates of death
He enters Heaven with prayer.
Prayer is the contrite sinners voice,
Returning from his ways; 9;e
While angels, in their songs rejoice,
IS And cry-Behold, he prays!
o, Thou, by whom we come to God,
The Life, the Truth, the Way
The path of prayer thyself hast trod--
Lord, teach US how to pray
