Life Of an Engineer.

The life Of railroad engineer is graphical
ly depicted in the following extract from the
Schenectady Star:
"Bu, the engineer--he who guides the
train by guiding the iron horse, and almost
holds the lives OF passengers IN bis hands
his 10 life Of mingled pain and pleasure. In
q little seventy nine apartment, with square
holes on each side for windows, open behind
and with machinery TO look through ahead,
you find him. He is the Pathfinder" he
leads the way q: oil times of danger, checks
the iron horse, or causes il to speed ahead
with the velocity of the wind, a, will. Have
you ever stood by tie track, Of dark night,
and watched the coming and passing OF a
traint Away off in the darkness you discov.
or light, and you hear noise, and the earth
trembles beneath your fee:. The light comes
nearer; you can compare il 10 nothing bu,
the devil himself, with it's terrible whistle
the sparks you imagine come from Beeze-
bub's nosriis-lhe fire underneath, that
shines close 10 the gpund, causing you 10
believe the devil walks on live Goals. 1t
comes close TO you; you back away and
shudGer; you look up, and almost on The
DEVILS back rides the engineer perhaps the
"machine" shrieks, and you may imagine
che engineer is applying tie spur to the dev-
il's sides. A daring fellow, that engineer
sou can't help saying so, and you wonder
wherein lies the pleasure OF being an eng-
nser. But so he goes, day after day, night
after night. Moonlight evenings he sweeps
over the country, through cities and villages,
through fairy scenes and forest clearings. He
looks through the square holes at the side
and enjoys ,be moonlight, but he cannot stop
TO enjoy the beauty Of the scenery. Cold,
rainy, muddy, dark night, il is the same
Perhaps the tracks are undermined or over
flowed with wafer; perhaps some scoundrels
have placed some obstructions in the way,
or trees been overturned across the track
and, in either case, it is almost instant death
-to him, at leas, but be stops not. Right on
10 the word with him, and on he goes, re-
gsrGless of danger, weather, and everything,
save the well.doing of his duty. Think oil

You'll join my laugh and help mo shout,

And wished that his To- was better.
Why, tho man is tho verisst slave alive,
For his dashins wife aud daughter
Will live in style though ruin should come
For he goes as the lamb to the slaughter.
Bu, he ieels it tighter every day,
That terrible debtors collar
Oh, what whould hs give could he say with US
That he owed no man dollar!
You seem amazed, but I'll tell you more,
Within two hours met him
cneak,ng away with frightened air,
As ii fiend had besst him;
Yet he asd from very worthy man,
Whom met with the Creates, pleasure,
Whom ! called by name and forced to stop,
Though he said he was not at leisure.
He held my last note So hald him fast.
Till he freed my neck from the collar,
Then I shook his hand as proudly said,
"Now owe 10 man dollarw
All! now you smile, for you feel the force
OF the truths have been repeating;

In that gentle breast was beating!
