The Book of Proverbs.

What book it is-that OF the proverbs!
Forget that we were ever obliged to repeat
them mechanically in our childhood, read
them as they stand in all their breadth and
richnes. of meaning. with cur better expert
ence of lie, and nothing short Of utter aston
ishment and admiration will be our feeling.
Such gems of wisdom in such golden settings
from one who lived and died before the name
of wisdom was known among the nations,
from whom the worlds sages have since
sprung! What shrewd perception of human
character under all conditions and moods,
what comprehensive exhibition of life on its
whole compass, and of Divine Providence in
its moral aims and sure rewards and punish
ments-what counsels to trugality, industry
moderation, prudence, benevolence, ,and peace
What varied illustrations from man and beast,
nature and art! How terse and polished the
STYLE. How condensed the thought To
think of reading the little book through in d
day would be folly, although its lines may bt
rus-over in an hour. Each line is sermon

OR THE
PeTiIs of Navigation.

The advantages of this contract need scarcely
be urged upon wealthy men or merchants, for they
rarely neglect it, and if they do, fires leave them
other resources. II is especially valuable to la
boring men, mechanics, and others of moderate
means-who, perhaps have little else than home
and its contents in the world.
These should neverneglert to insure;a fire which
may visit them at any hour, would leave them
homeless, and with no capital but their labor, to
begin again the struggle of life, and years of toll
and watching must pass before they can regain
what they have lost, if indeed it is ever DONE
To such, insurance is duty. If the individual
is worth little, the expense is lessj if he owns
much property, still the expense is riling and by
investing few dollars he is safe. If he is over
taken by misfortune, and his all laid in ashes, he
receives a recompense in cash capital equal TO
his loss, and may soon restore what has been de-
stroyed.

route. Il is more direct, through more
fertile country, we'll provided with water
and timber, favorable geographically, and
will command the trade and the support
of the Mormons at Salt Lake.
The route pursued by Col. Fremont from
Parowan to the Sierra Nevada not having
been direct, would not be suitable for the
road. The road might go from Parowan di-
rect to the Sierra Nevada, in latitude 36, or
perhaps might follow the Spanish trail--now
the road from Salt Lake to San Bernadino--
down to the Both parallel, and thence west
to the pass.
Col. Fremont has not had time to arrange
his papers, and most Of his calculations are
still to be uade, and we expect that when a
detailed narrative of his journey shall be
published, it will create strong impression
on the public mind in favor of the central
route. The season did not permit Of ZOO
logical, botanical, or geological researches,
yet considerable portion Of the journey
having been made over country never before
examined by civilized man, the report will
no doubt add much to the present stock Of
knowledge about the country near the SOUTH
ern rim Of the Great Basin. ,
T. w. Landers, a Typographical engineer,
who was the head Of the engineering staff
in Governor Stevens extreme northern ex-
ploration, appears to think that the central
route may, after all, be the best for WASH
ington Territory. About the goth of March
Mr.. Landers began a reconnaissance Of a
route from Puget Sound direct to Salt Lake
a distance of one thousand miles, and he and
his party are now in the mountains. Lam
ders desires to conclude his survey early, so
that he may have his report concluded and
in Washington City in July The Terrific
rial Legislature approves of this reconnois-
sance, and has adopted resolution request
ing Congress to make an appropriation to
pay the expenses of the expedition.
