DEATH AND LlFE.-When Socrates,
about to drink the hemlock, was con-
versing cheerfully of death and life, his
anxious friends inquired how they sho'd
bury him.
"Anhow you please" replied Socra-
tes,-"if you can catch me !'
Socrates could not be put in tomb
no one could by any means lay hands
upon the man, after the transition we
call death. 1t is the certainty of this
truth that deprives the death bed of its
terrors There is an instinct in the soul
which assures us that we cannot be pack
ed up in box, and laid away in the
earth. The most confirmed sceptic new
Ell fully loses this instinct. Who does
not feel within himself" 1t is impossi-
bic for me to diel' All our false rea-
soning fails to destroy this inherent
faith.
By beautiful provision of Nature,
this perception of Immortality grows
strong and clear as the hour of mortal
change approaches. This is the case
more especially when death is the natu-
raj result of gradual decay of the body.
As the physical frame grows weaker,
the spiritual faculties quicken into new
life. The parting soul is enabled to view
its state, its approaching transition, time
and eternity, with calmness which as
tonishes beholders. The strong man
stands amazed to see the traveller set
out so contentedly and so well assured,
to go to the undiscovered country whence
there is no return. The spectator can
conceive only anguish aAd terror in
plucking up the deep struck roots of this
earthly life, which hold so strong and
firm.
= To me the thought of death is terrible,
Having such hold on life: tc think it is not
SO much as even the lifting of q latch
Only step iuto the open air
Or of tent already luminous
With light which shines through its transparent walls
AS we stand by the death-b of
friends, and behold them float smoothly
out upon the unknown sea, we would
feel less grief could we know what faith
illuminates them, and like them behold
with quickened spiritual vision the heav-
ems opening, and beautiful beloved faces
of friends gone before drawing near to
receive and accompany the departing
soul.

The PACIFIC RAILRoAD.-The Morn.

ing Call very trul y says:
A journal in the interest of Senator
Gwin informs us that his whole energies
are devoted to the advocacy of the Pa
cifc Railroad. This ist the song that has
been sung from the time Gwin first took
his seat in the Senate down to the pres
ent, and yet with the '.ability of states
man. and "wielding political power
second to none in Congress-" he has in
variably failed to carry the greatest
measure of the age. This constant Civ
ing out Of an intention to do something,
and uniform failure, is calculated to
beget the suspicion that the Senator
'looks one way and rows another" or
that, whilst protesting to advocate the
passage of the Railroad Bill, he is in
league with its opponents. The expla-
nation of this is, that the conditional fee
of $4,000 per year from the Pacific Mail
Steamship Company, has greater weight
with DIR. Gwin than the interests of Cal
ifornia, and that sooner than consent to
a reduction in his income, he prefers the
people of the State shall be exposed to
the exactions and impositions of the
soulless monopoly that now controls the
means of communication between the
Atlantic States and the Poetic Coast.
1t is on old and true saying, that ''a
man is known by the company he
keeps" and certainly, if DIR. Gwin is
judged by his associations he is no friend
of either California or her interests. In
the Senate he is ever found voting aud
acting with such men as Mason of Vir-
ginia, Hammond of South Carolina,
Toombs of Georgia, and men of that ilk,
who, it is notorious, are opposed to the
Pacific Railroad, or any other measure
of internal Improvement which it is pro-
posed the Government shall assist, eth
er by loaring her credit or donating
public lands. If ever Pacific Railroad
Bill is carried through Congress, it will
be by the votes of the Representative
from the North and Northwest, who,
with rare exceptions, favor the construc-
ton of a road that will bind together the
extremes of the Union; whilst on the
other hand, the ultras of the South op-
pose any measure Of the kind.

AT the prayer meeting at Burton
Theater, New York, on Monday, Rev.
H. G. Fish of Newark, n. j., bore testi-
mony to the conversion of 5000 persons
in and near that city.
Eighty-seven persons were received
into the Methodist Church in twenty
seventh street, the Rev. Thomas G. Os-
born, pastor, Sunday afternoon. There
have been over 200 converts in the
Church during the last two months.
There were 60 inquirers at the altar in
the evening, and the church was SC
crowded that large numbers went away.
There have been 100 persons added to
the Methodist Church in Second street;
about 70 to the Seventh street Metho-
dist Church, the Rev. G. Fletcher, pas
tor. From 100 to 80 have been con-
Cpted in the Ninth street Methodist
Church, and about 120 in the Willet
street Church.
Among the churches most richly bles-
sed, are DR., Dowling's (Baptist) Church
in Bedford St; DIR. Burchard's (Presbv-
terian) Church in Thirteenth street, and
the Bedford street Methodist Church.

vs. Some scoundrel has stolen the
service sword of the late Gen. Worth,
which was used on the day of the re-
moval of his remains. If ever there
was good ground for the inhiction of the
scriptural curse-They that take the
sword shall perish by the sword !" 1t
certainly ought to be putin force against
the wretch who would steal the relic of
a dead hero. He is-more probably

A "blouse' is a colored modification of
a gentleman's shirt, and is worn outside,
descending a little below the knee
Artists in Italy wear them usually and
they are becoming enough. :, Ladies
seem to have given up the "Bloomer"
idea altogether; but the disposition TO
wear something of male attire is still
extant, and the Fashion" in France and
England now is to wear Houses in the
morning. With leather belt and en-.
broidered edges, they are both conven-
lent and graceful. They are generally
composed of fine cambric muslin, with a
red narrow band as a zone, fastened
with silver clasps. Doubtless they will
soon be introduced into San Francisco,

"Well, gentlemen, there is one family

ren family; and if Senator Douglas only
knew the long, dreary road he has to
travel, the deep roaring streams he has
got to swim his horse over, the dark
stormy nights where the wind will blow
down his tents, and he will be forced to
sleep on the ground with the rain pour
ing on him in torrents, the high and rug
gcd mountains he has got to climb, the
interminable deserts where there is no
wood nor water he has got to cross, in
the road he has taken away from his
fathers house," he would in my opin
ion, take the straightest chute back into

A DusT SToRY.-The following story
is told by the Washington States, of the
Turkish officer who is Mohammed Pa
cha's Secretary. 1t would do well for
this latitude at the present time:
He has been used to the sandy deserts
of Syria, and on going out yesterday
afternoon, found himself enveloped in a
whirlwind of dust. Suddenly (as the
story goes,) he was heard to call upon
Allah in loud voice, and threw himself
flat on his face in the street. Some of
the bystanders lifted him up, under the
impression that he had been taken with
an apoplectic fit; but on being question
ed he stared wildly around him, and
asked whether it was possible it was
over so soon
What is over !" asked Mr. Oscanvan,
who happened to be passing, addressing
him in his native tongue.
"Oh Effendi cried the Arab, 81
was walking through this pleasant ba-
zaar, wondering at the beauty of the
unveiled women, aud thinking how far
away | was from my native desert, when,
behold, raised my eyes and beheld a
cloud of dust, lof;ier than the loftiest
simoom of Sahara, coming toward me-
Certain that l was going to perish by
the most miserable of deaths, | did, ac-
cording to the fashion of the desert, and
sought to escape the simeon by burying
my face in the sand. | had scarcely
done so when these people lifted me up,
and, behold, the simeon was no longer
there"
Oscanyan laughed, and told the Arab
that what he believed to be the simeon
was simply the accustomed dust of the
city, swept by the wind, that they went
on, year after year, without taking any
preventive measures.
But the Arab shook his head, as he
passed on, and muttered to himself:
Mashallah but they are wonder
full people, these Yankees We have
the SIMEON only in the desert, but they
have it in their streets !"

IHE MOST CHARMING OF WOMEN
Madame De Stael, one of the most ele-
giant conversationalists the world has
ever known. was by no means hand
some woman, so far as mere beauty is
concerned; but Byron, the most fastid-
ious of beauty fanciers; declared she
could talk down her face in fifteen min
utes, at the end of which. time she be-
came positively beautiful. The ars of
conversation is q rare gift, and to be
cultivated as one would cultivate any
desirable art. With some it is a spon-
taneous faculty; with all it can be ac-
quired in a greater OF less degree of per-
lection. An old book upon etiquette,
among an immense deal of twaddle, con-
tains some grains of sound sense, which
would profit all to heed. On the subject
of conversation, we are told to "inter-
rogate without display, not to interrupt
a profitable speaker, nor desire am
bitiouusly to putin word of ones own,
to be measured in speaking and hearing,
not be ashamed of receiving, or to be
grudging of information, nor to pass
another's knowledge for ones own.
And again, that the "middle tone of
voice, neither so low as to be inaudible,
nor ill-bred from its high pitch, " is the
most desirable. And, also, "that one
should reflect first what he is going to
say, and then give it utterance be cour-
teous when addressed, amiable in social
intercourse, not aiming to be pleasant by
facetiousness, but cultivating gentleness
in kind admonitions. Harshness is ever
to be put aside, even in censuring."
BANlsHMENT OF THE KING OF Delhi.
Dates from Bombay are to Feb. "a.
The leading item of intelligence from
India is the trial and sentence of the old
King of Delhi. He has been found
guilty, and was sentenced to be Danish
ed for life to the Adaman Islands. These
islands are haunt for Malay pirates.
They are thus described:
"For some years they were claimed
by the Danes along with the neighbor-
ing cluster of the Nicobar. In 1913
the Danish Government formally re-
nounced all title to the sovereignty of
these islands, and broke up their estab-
lshmerits on them. Some chiefs in one
of tie largest of the series then hoisted
a British flag, and expressed wish to
place themselves under the protection of
the East India Company. Nothing,
however, was done in consequence.
The islands remain still unclaimed ter
ritory, inhabited only by a few hundred
Malays, and enjoying, moreover, an un-
pleasant notoriety as being the haunt of
pirates" Here it is arranged that the
last heir of the Moguls shall spend the
rest Of his days. The punishment will
be more really severe, and perhaps not
less etfectual as a warning and example
than death itself
