THE MIRAGE on THE PLANs.-Travel-
ers across the plains, assert that they
have seen on the Mobiles Pass Route,
about 80 miles this side of the Humboldt
river, the most wonderful phenomenon,
that they think could ever have been
witnessed in any part of the world. 1t is
no less a thing than city in the air
complete in every aspect and concomitant
1t is seen in the early morning, and stands
self-poised above the dead level ola broad
and airy plain, which is covered with a
light white dust that rises in small clouds
at the touch of horses hoof, or ascends
in magnificent spiral towers in the breath
of the little whirlwinds that are occasioned
by the intense heat. The line of the base
of the city forms an angle with the line
Of the plain, so that the city seems to lean
over towards the earth, and full view of
its streets and buildings is presented. All
the streets seem to tend to one point,
where they concentrate, and whence, Of
course, they diverge. the architectural
beauty and splendor of this city in the
air, of character unsqualed by any thing
upon the face of the earth. The buildings
rise one after another, in, proud, palatial
grandeur, and their tall towers glitter
like molten silver in the sun. Clean and
perfect was the work of the mysterious
architect who framed those marble.looking
wonders of the air. The apparent extent
ofthe city is about six miles in circumfer.
ence, and the nearest approximation of the
base to the earth, is distance of about
50tset. Not having seen this phenomenon,
Of course we cannot enter into any minute
description oft, and can give only the
general idea which we have presented.
We are assured that the illusion is perfect
nothing wanting, whatever to fill up the
picture-a magnificent city, silent as the
bottom of the sea, but glitterirg in the
full life of the sunshine, and self-sustained
in the heaven.-aarysOiM (Cai.) E1.

Soon however he made hook of the end

it is the holy Sabbath"

of the Reformation, and Christians, and

or else sit still and think it is distract

30! father-I-'
"Mind me, sir"
There was no appeal from this sternly
spoken command; so George with hasty
step, flushed face, and with an angry
heart, put up his favorite volume, but he
would not take the Bible Instead, he
hurried to sofa in a distant part of the
room, and threw himself upon it, sullen
and thinking ungenerous thoughts of his
father "He don't care anything about
reading" he said mentally, but passion
ately he never read history, and don't
know how good it is, nor how much one
learns. | think it's hateful of him to
make me sit here dumb and stupid-that

never explains it to me. Oh! dear, l

Mr.. Allen had looked round to see if
his son was obeying him, and merely re-
marking, Don't leave that place SIR he
threw his silk handkerchief over his face
again and slept.
1t was warm summers day. The
windows were all open, and through
two of them the arbor looked very cool
and inviting. "If | had only gone out

Just then there was great noise In
came little Archy with the kitten and
pasteboard box. Kitty was running in
great glee, SO was Archy. Their noise
awakened Mr.. Allen.
"What is that ?" he cried sternly.
"Me and kit, father see, kit is riding
me to church; get up, you cat" and away
they galloped again.
"Stop that, you wicked boy unharness
the kitten, or / shall whip you severely.
Bad boy, do you know it's the holy Sab

A sweet voice was heard singing in the
next room, and softly the words aoated
upon the air. HI doeth all things we'll.

The citizens of Milwaukee are the
most law abiding people in the world.
One of them when asked why so many
people were drowned in their river, re-
piled that ii was on account of an ordin-
ance OF the city, which forbids swimming
within tho city limits. When one of
them slipped in, he recalled the ordinance
to mind at once, and rather than violate it
went eheerfully to the bottom without
struggle.

My Mothers Prayer.
recolect, when was young,
At close of every aay,
My mother cal'd Inc to her side
And taught me how to pay.
Beside her there she bade me knee,
And upward lift my eyes,
And clasp my hanus imploringly
To Him, who rules the skies.
Thus " Father, be my sleep thy care,
And if from this, my rest,
| waken in Eternity
Oh be it with the best."
" God bless Everybody, Amen"
recollect her blessings then,
Her kiss upon my cheek,
She bade me all remember when
She might no longer speak.
And then how sweet went to sleep,
That voice still in mine ear,
With purest thoughts of heavenly love,
And dreams ofangels near.
But soon she past from earth away,
And went in heaven to dwell,
To teach young angels how to pray,
God saw she taught it we'll
But every night she came to me,
Rre when | lay down to rest,
And pray'd with her angelic form
In radient glory drest.
Long years have fed and childhood is
4 dream of dreamings past,
Delusive all save this alone,
With which no guile was cast.
And now, as in that early day,
That guiding voice hear,
And when bend my knee to pray
The angels still is near.
