The LntslligsNcsr republishes the recent re-
port Of Commodore Paulding on his reconnois-
sance for ship canal route across the Isthmus
of Darien, and seems to think that the time
has come when the enterprise of opening such
an inter-Oceanic communication there should be
consummated. The inter-oceanic canal has been
the dream of the last fifty years. multitude
of surveys for it in that time have been made
over that same route, and the first one that has
resulted in report Of its feasibility is, if we
mistake not, this from Commodore Paulding
With all due Difference to that energetic and
distinguished gentleman, we confess to far
greater confidence in the report of Col. Childs,
the chief (canal constructing engineer of the
State Of New York, made a few years ago, after
rs careful detailed surveys as were resorted to
to locate the Erie canal. He pronounced the
work over that route an impossibility, with the
result Of those surveys before him. Our belief
Is, that the business world will continue to
dream on, for half a century more, over the
chimera of a ship canal across the Isthmus of

A Beautiful story.

!
A few weeks since, in coming down the
North River I was seated in the cabin of
| the magnificent steamer Isaac Newton, in
conversation with some friends. It was
becoming late in the evening, and one af-
ter another seeking repose from the cares
and tolls of the day, made preparations to
retire to their berths. Some pulling off
their boots and coats, lay themselves down
to sleep; others in the attempt to make it
seem as much as possible like home threw
off more of their clothing-each one as his
comfort or apprehension Of danger dicta-
ted.
had noticed on the deck fine looking
little boy of about six years old, following
around man evidently bis father, whose
appearance indicated him to be foreign
er-probably a German-a man Of medi-
UNI height and respectable dress. The
child was unusually fair and fine looking,
handsomely featured with an intelligent
and affectionate expression Of counten-
ance; and from under his little German
cap fell his chestnut hair, in thick, cluster
ing, beautiful curls.
After walking about the cabin for q
time, the father and the son stopped with
in few feet of where we were seated, and
began preparations for going to bed. |
watched them. The father adjusted and
arranged the bed the child was to occupy,
which was an upper berth, while the little
fellow was undressing himself Having
finished this, his father tied handker-
chief around his head to protect bis curls,
which looked as IL the sunlight from his
happy heart always rested there. This
done, | looked for him to seek his resting
place; but instead of this he quietly kneel-
ed down on the floor, put up his little
hands together so beautifully ehild-like
and simple, and resting his arms on the
lower berth, against which be knelt be be-
gan his vesper prayer.
The father sat down by his side, and
waited the conclusion. 1t was, for q
child, a long prayer, but well understood.
| could hear the murmurings of his sweet
voice, but could not distinguish the words
he spoke. But what scene! There
were men around hinl-Christian men
retiring to rest without prayer; OF, if
praying at all kind of mental desire for
protection, without sufficient courage or
piety to kneel down i'll steamboats, cabin
and before strangers, acknowledge the
goodness of God, or ask for his protecting
love.
This was the training Of some pious
mother. Where was she nows How
many times had her kind hand been laid
upon those sunny locks, as she had taught
him to lisp his prayers.
A beautiful sight it was, that child at
prayer, in the midst of the busy, thought
less throng. He alone Of the worldly
multitude, draws nigh to heaven. thank
the parental love that taught him to lisp
his evening prayer, whether Catholic or
Protestant, whether dead or living, wheth-
er far off or nigh. 1t did me good itmade

SMART GIRL-A little girl we wot of,
not yet far advanced in her third year,
has gathered into the pin cushion of her
memory some remarkably sharp idess OF
''propriety" in language and conduct
Having, for instance, learned from the
conversation of older and wiser people,
that legs are out of fashion, and that it is
more elegant to say ili limbs she is amusing
ly scrupuious in her observation of all such
nice distinctions; and the way she reproved
her, eldest sister the other day is worthy
to be recorded in the annals of infantile
"table-talk." They have an Aunt Isabel
Ia, whom the sister, aged six, calls 'Auntie
Belize "You shouldn't say Aaeatie Bel
he" Esped the little three year old: 'syou
should thay Auntie Stomach"
We think, considering the difference in
age, that this ''three year old' is quite as
''proper" in her language, as the young
lady who objected to saying gymnastics
and always spoke of that art as James
aastics. But we doubt whether her no.
tons of ''propriety" can ever exceed those
of the young widow who turned off her
washer-woman because her clothes were
put into the same tub with those of q
gentleman boarder.
