Mason AND DNoN's liNE-'What is
meant hy Mason and Dxon's lneP asked "A
bright, blueeyed girl of twelve years of age,
VIXEN sitting at her fathers table few days
ago.
The answer was, 'lt isa phrase usually
employed to describe the boundary between
the free and slave States
But why do they describe il in that way
was her inquiry.
The answer may be worth giving to some OF
our readers.
In the 18th eentury, James II, Of Eng
hnd, then the Duke of York, gave certain
hnds to Lord Baltimore and to VIM Penn,
aud officially soon sprang up as to the
proper owner of these lands gu the Della
ware. Again and again was the affair
carried into the courts, til in the year
I76l, when George the III, came to the
crown, the Lord Chancellor made decision;
but new difficulties sprang up in drawing the
boundary lines. The commissioners finally
employed Messrs. Mason aud Dixon, who
had Just returned from tho Cape of Good
Hope, where they had been to observe the
transit Of Venus. They succeeded in esiab-
hshing the line between Delaware and Mary
Es,d. wh ch has ever since been called Ma
son aud DNon's lne.'

BY WILLIAM CULLEN BRYANT.
Stand here by my side and turn, pray,
On tho lake below thy gentle eyer;
The clouds hang over il, heavy rad gray,
4 nd dark and silent the water lies;
And out of that frozen mist the snow
In waycring nakes begins TO flow;
Flake after fake,
They sink in the dark and silent lake.
See how in living swarm they come
From the chambers beyond that misty veil,
Some hover awhile in air, and some
Rush prone from the sky ikesummer hail.
An, dropping swiftly or settling slow,
Meet, and IRE still in the depth below,
Flake after fake
Dissolved in the dark and silent lake.
Here delicate snow stars, out Of the cloud
Come floating downward in airy play,
Like spangles dropped from the glistening
crowd
That wbten by night the milky way;
There broader and burllor masses fall;
Ut fiItU WhtSI DhIlts iIltID III.
Flake after flake,
All drowned in the dark and silent lake.
And some as on tender wings they glide
From their chilly birth-cloud, dim and
gray,
Are joined in their fall and side by side,
Come clnging along their unsteady way;
AS friend with friend or husband with vito
Marks hand in hand the passage Of life
Each mated flake
Soon siIes in the dark and silent lake
10! while we are Razng, in swfter haste
Streams down the SHOWS, till the air il
white,
As myrads by myrads madly chased,
They fling themselves from their slIadowy
height.
The fair frail creatures Of middle sky,
What speed they make, with their grave
so nigh;
Flake after fake,
To lie in the dark aud silent lake!
see in thy gentle eyes tear;
They turn TO me in sorrowful thought;
Thou ihnkest Of friends, the good and doar,
Who were for "A time and now are not;
Like the fair children Of cloud and frost,
That glsten moment and then are lost,
Flake after fake,
Al lost in the dark and silent lake.
Yet look again for the clouds divide:
CLEAN Of blue on the water lies;
And far away, on the mountain side,
A sunbeam falls from the opening skies.
But the hurryng host that few between
I he cloud and the water no more is seen;
Flake after fake,
At rest in the dark and silent lake.
