IMMENsITY OF THE UNIYERsE.-As proof
of what vast book the visible heavens are,
and also the diligence of the student, man,
in turning over its leaves, DR.. Nichol, in
his work describing the magnitude of Lord
Rose telescope, says that Lord Rosse has
looked into space distance so iuconceiva-
BILE, that light, which travels at the rate of
100000 miles in one second, would require
period of 25O,000,000 Of solar years, each
one containing about 100000 of seconds,
to pass the intervening gulf between this
earth and the remotest point to which this
telescope has reached. How utterly unable
is the mind to grasp even fraction of this
immense period. To conceive the passing
events of hundred thyusand years only, is
an impossibiIity, to say nothing of millions
and hundreds of millions of years

Friendship.

Friendship is flower that blooms in all
seasons; it may be seen hOurishing on the
snow-capped mountains Of northern Russia,
as we'll as in more favored valleys of sunny
Italy, everywhere cheering us by its exquis
ite and indescribable charms. No surveyed
chart, no national boundary line, no rugged
mountain, or steep declining vale, put
limit to its growth. Wherever it is watered
with the dews of kindness and affection,
there you may be sure to find it. Allied IN
closest companionship with its twin sister,
Charity, it enters the abode of sorrow and
wretchedness, and causes happiness and
peace 1t knocks at the lonely and diScOn-
Solate heart, and speaks words of encour-
agement and joy. Its all-powerful influence
hOvers DER contending armies, and unites
the deadly foes in the closest bonds of SYM
pathy and kindness. Its eternal and uni
versal fragrance diSpels every poisoned
thought of envy, and puriies the mind with
holy and priceless contentment, which all
the pomp and power of earth could not be-
stow. In vain do we look for this heavenly
flower in the cold calculating worldling,
the poor, deluded wretch is dead to every
feeling of its ennobling virtue. In vain do
we look for it in the actions of the proud
and aristocratic votaries Of fashion; the
love Of self-display, and of the false and fleet
ing pleasures Of the world, has banished it
forever from their hearts. In vain do we
look for it in the thOughtless and practical
throng, who with loud laugh, and extended
open hands, proclaim obedience to its laws
while at the same time the cancer of NAL
ice and envy and detraction, is enthroned
in their hearts, and active on their tongues.
Friendship, true friendship can only be
| found to bloom in the soil of a noble and
selfsacrifcing heart; there it has peren-
NAL summer, a never ending season of fell
city and joy to its happy possessor, casting
thousand rays of love and hope and peace
| to all around.

Nicaragua was not of the most favorable

solved to send armies for the determination

Can you tell me, said Old Roger, while
speaking of the operation of the stringent
Liquor Law, why the people where such
law exists are like halfconverted Hindoos?'
The Brahmin took three whiffs of his
pipe before he answered that he didn't
know.
1t is said he, because they don't know
whether to give up their jWg-or-not.'
The Brahmin worked out the problem on
the ends of bis fingers, and smiled assent.

A friend who recently happened on the
same car with Horace Greeley, tells the
following: Greeley was trying to read
newspaper by the dim religious light OF
car lamp. In order to see, he raised the
wick: but hardly had he done so, before the
lamp-trimmer came along and turned it
down. The moment his back was turned
Greeley raised it up again. The Knight Of
the Dark Lantern presently came along
again and partly shut off the light by which
the philosopher was reading. Greeley re-
monstrated. The official thrust his lantern
to his face, surveyed him with contempt

fellow, you talk too much. = Utica Herald

Pass him not carelessly-
Silent and mute
Where he lies prayerlessly
Low as the brute

When the watch come,
Where he lies snoringly,
Drunken and dumb,
Sunken in rum.

Beyond the vile worm,

There may be good IN him,

Comes in its order,
Solemn repentance,
Before the Recorder.
Then, as a variety,
Show him some charity.
Perhaps he may dreamily
Castles have built
Seen his milk creamily,
Risen--then split;
Perhaps his heart sickens
Over numerous chickens,
Counted too early,
And never hatched fairly.

Will think III my way,
And quietly order
Him over the Bay
Just for a day;
His passions more awfully
Punish the man

KANzAs.-That there was plan for seiz
ing and destroying the damaging evidence
given before the congressional committee, in
regard to the invasion, seems to be confirmed
by late advlces. The seizure of Governor
Robinson TO whom was committed an official
copy of this evidence to bring to Washington,
appears to have been partly with the view of
gaining possession of it. But, to their disap-
pointment, the Mssourans did not find the
documents on his person. His wife brought
them safely through. Itwas TO escape the ap-
pretended seizure that the committee commit
ted the testimony to Gov. Robinson to bring
on.
The Kanzas correspondent of the st Louis
Republican (border ruffian) writes that Gov.
Shannon has sent an express to Lexington,
Mo, with the papers necessary for the arrest
and return OF Mr.. Robinson.
The committee of investigation are in ses-
sion at Leavenworth. 1t is understood that
Mr.. Oliver, will present minority report
when the committee return to Washington
This is very natural, since it will appear in
the evidence before the commission that Mr..
OliUer himself participated IN the inoasion of
Kanzas By the Missourians, that he rent over
there on election day Nth the ra6ble, and fhe
did nOthinsseI Uote, hayGngued the cro,od and
ecouuraged them to their deeds ofUiolence.
What influence a minority report from such
source will have with the country, it would
be difficult to comprehend.
Still another border ruffian outrage cn
minister OF the gospel is reported, though this
lime the perpetrators were from the chivalric
southern settlers who have lately arrived in
Kanzas The victim was Rev. Pardee Butler,
who, it will be remembered, was mobbed and
maltreated at Atchison last fall and sent down
the Missouri river on raft. He was returning
last month having spent the winter in preach
ing in Illinois, to join his family who have
remained in the territory, and while passing
through Atchison was seized in the street by
a moo, aid without any pretense to investi-
cation, tarred and feathered. The notorious
Bob Kelly, editor Of the Squatter Sovereign,
took an active part, and Stringfellow looked
on smoking. Mr.. Butler escaped from his
prosecutors, and had reached Lawrence. 1t
is by such acts as these, we suppose that the
Union is kept together,

From KANzAs.-In the midst of conflicting
statements, we have obtained authentic and
certain Intelligence that the Congressional
Commissioners, Messrs. Toward and Sher.
man, state in conversation, that they are
assounded at the evidence brought before
them proving the wrongs Of tho true people of
kanzas. and they express their wonder at
their admirable self. control. There is evil
dence to indicate that Mr.. Oliver himself, the
third member Of the commission, member of
Congress from the State OF Missouri, and of
course a protested inhabtant of that state,
nevertheless joined the Missourians in their
ioray into Kanzas and encouraged them to
vote there. Whitfield IS obviously dseour-
aged. The United States dragons evidently
understand the true merits Of the case, as is
abundantly eyinced by the alacrity % with
which they have conducted the pursuit after :
certain free state men against whom warrants
had been issued. The shooting of "SheIif''
Jones is a mystery. 1t was an act Of which

franklin, shot another man, whose name We
could not learn, through the breast with a
pistol. After the deed was done, Franklin
went after two physicians and sent them To
the wounded man, and then fled from tho
town. Officers traced him to Natick, where
he vas seen, barefooted, Saturday night, and
from thence to Newton, where he stopped
Sunday afternoon. The wounded man says
that the pistol was accidentally fired. A sis
ter Of the man who was hurt was so fright
ened when informed of the affair that il made
her delirious. These are all the particulars
that we could obtain. and tho matter looks

The PANAMA RAILROAD SLAUeHTER.-Drs.
Hill, Hitchcock, and Nicholson, who came
from Aspinwal in the George Law, attended
temporarily on those wounded by the late
railroad accident, and they state the number
wounded at about 100, of whom they think
one. half were fatally injured. If this esti-
mate should prove correct, the lives lost by
that catastrophe will be some seventy or eigh-
ty. These were all, or nearly all, storage
passengers of the George Law, on her out
ward trip. Neither the physicians nor any
one else can report any names of the killed or
wounded, and the friends of those who ere
known to be in the company must therefore
remain in anxious suspense until the. arrival
of the next steamer.
