ETERNITY.-" Eternity has no gray hairs 7"
The flowers fade, the heart lies down in the
sepulchre of ages, but time writes no wrinkles
on the brow of eternity
Eternity Stupendous thought The ever
present, unborn, undecaying, and undying
the endless chain, comprising the life of God
the golden thread, entwinng the destinies of
the universe.
Earth has its beauties but time shrouds
them for the grave; its honors, they are but
the sunshine of an hour; its palaces, they are
but as the gilded sepulchre; its possessions,
they are toys of changing fortune; its pleas
ures, they are but as burthening bubbles
Not SO in the untried bourne
In the dwelling of the Almighty can come
no footsteps of decay. Its day will know no
-darkening-eternal splendors forbid the ap-
proach of night. Its fountains will never fail,
they are fresh from the eternal throne. Its
glories will never wane, for there is the ever
present God. Its harmonies will never cease,
exhaustless love supplies the song

care you afraid of banks failing?" asked
the cashier as Mrs. Partington went to draw
her pension. "Banks falling" said the dame,
81 never had any idea about it at ALL If he gets
votes enough, don't see how he can fail, and
if he don't, can't see how he is to help it"
81 meant" said he, "the banks that furnish
currency for the country" She stood a mo.
ment counting her bills. "Oh, you did, did
your" said she; "well, its about the same
thing If they have money enough to redeem
with, and Heaven knows there's need enough
of redemption for good many of them, and
more grace than they allow their customers,
they may stand it, but doubtful things are un-
certain" She passed off like an exhalation,
and the cashier counted out one hundred and
fifteen dollars and seventeen cents fifteen times
while ponderng what she said, in order to
catch her meaning.
"Im not very incredible" said Mrs. Part
ington, looking up from the paper and glancing
over her specs at Ike who sat making wind
mill out of the frame of his slate, "and be-
]ieve as much as any rational person ought to.
/ have believed all about the Devilport boys,
and the other wonderful things, and all that
has been said agin EN-; and the story of a
mans climbing pole and pulling it up after
him; and of the actor that held himself out at
arms length; but it is beyond my belief that
a cargo of molasses could change hands. :"
She passed the paper from her right hand to
her left as though it were a hogshead of mo-
lasses, and then resumed her reading with
profound idea that the editor in making the
statement was humbugging her.

The APPLE TRADE.-Very few are aware,
says the S. F. Argus, of the magnitude of the
Oregon apple trade, which, during the past
two years, has become greater than ever. San
Francisco alone pays tribute this year to Ore
gon for fruit, and costs of transport, in a sum
near one million of dollars Several cargoes Of
apples amounting to about one hundred and
fifty to two hundred tons have been sold on
the wharf, at prices ranging from $3.50 to

Coon OUT OF EvIL.-The financial panic has
not been without some benefit. An eastern
exchange says: The panic has had one good
result, at all events. The Convention which
was to meet at Cleveland on the 26th Sept,
for the purpose of dssolving the Union, has
been postponed on account of the financial
difficulties of the country. Whether they
feared they would be unable to raise money
to carry out their scheme of dissolution or to
pay their railroad fare, we are not informed.

A DISTANT RELATIvE.-An actress in Paris
sent word that she could not play on account
of the death of her mother. A day or two

AN OLD COMA wealthy Israelite living
near Selma Arkansas, has in his possession a
silver shekel struck in the mint Of Judea, 1850
years ago. 1t is about the size of half.dollar,
but the silver is so impure that its intrinsic
value is but 10 cents. The owner would har-
dly part with the relic for as many hundred
dollars. 1t has been in his family $40 years.

MACHINE FOR FoRGING CAR WHEEIs.-Car wheels
are generally made of cast r0n chilled at the rim, the
side faces being undulated to let the metal play
when coon. and prevent its sudden breaking For the
shape of these undulations the only rule adopted by
builders is to make it different from patented patterns
and to give it good name. Wheels not con-
s,rcted in that manner on the continent of Europe
Engineers there would as soon think Of making them
from glass as from cast iron. They shaped like
carriage wheels each spoke is made of two pieces of
7 iron ioined back 10 back; each piece of I iron IS
bent in two places, as to form the ef side OF one
spoke the right side of the next spoke and the part
Of the circumference included between them. All the
ends converge toward the center and the hub Is cast
al them an-thus forming one body with them The
rim IL rradc separately of two kinds of wrought iron
hard iron outside for the wear and soft iron inside 70
give strength; they are welded in the making, as
to bc one piece. This rim is made of such diameter
that when cold il cannot be placed round the wheel;
is heStcd or that purpose and suddenly cooled when
ou so to drive every part tight. The work Is hn-
ishcd 10y placing rVets here and there. During the
last few years there has been tendency in this coun-
iry to substitute wrought iron for cast iron in the
baking Of car wheels. and several plans have been
tried to unite the cheapneSS of American cast-ron
wheels to the sodity oi European wrought-iron
wheels. The last improvement in that line consists in
Il hammer for making the grooves. The face of the
hammer is II counterpart Of the groove to be made
end is connected with the spindle which carries the
wheel in such a manner that after euch blow, tho
wheel is made to move the proper distance for the
formation Of the next groove.
