Minnesota, Oregon, New Mexico and perhaps
Kansas will contain people enough to au-
thorise their application for admission TO the
Union as States. Minnesota by her last GEN.

creasing. Oregon has probably about the
same population but does not increase so
rapidly. New Mexico had 81 800 population
in 1850, and has probably 10000 now. The
population of Kansas is less than either of
these, but If law and order are restored and
maintained there would increase more rapidly

TIE PRAIRIE FIRE AND TIE RUM
FIRE


BY REV. JOHN PIERPONT.
The prairie fire at midnight hour
The traveller hears it roaring by
A form of terror and of power,
That walks the earth and licks the sky.
The wild deer on his grassy he'd,
Wakes from his dreams of breaking day,
Listens and lif,s his antlered head,
Snuiis the hot blast and bounds away.
Where that destroying angel goes,
Borna on the wings of auiumn's wind,
lie leaves no grass, no prairie rose,
But all is seorched and black behind.
But when spring comes, n flowery belt,
Across the prarie's bosom thrown,
Shows us that where his foot was felt,
The angel dropped jewelled zone.
But there $ fire, along whose track
Spring never scatters fowersin bloom,
No Spring e'cr foliows-al is black
As midnight in hopeless tomb.
And upon the low and high
Falls this strange fire; it feeds mud plays
On beauty's cheek, in wisdom's eye,
And melts down manhood in its blaze.
And youth and aee-its power is such
Blossoms and fruit alike are burned;
And every virtue by its touch
Is shrveed and to ashes tuned
Quench, Holy Father by thy power,
BY love and law, with spring and well,
With stream and cistern, food and shower,
In mercy quench this fire of hell.
