the spirit Of universal brotherhood, are
manifest dictates of the human consti-

stamps its destiny in this respect. "No

the melancholy consequences of trans

Pacific Rail Road.
Below will be found the remarks o1
Hon. H. NJ. Rice, of Minnesota, on the
r. Road Bill he recently introduced tc

abstract of the bill is published else
where in this paper.

nor 60 into details. They have been
given 50 often that the Senate must be
familiar with them. Ny purpose is to
state few facts in relation to the north
ern route; and, Notwithstanding my
preference for that line, will cheerfully
vote to give equal aid to the others.
The country through which q road
between the great lakes and Puget Sound
would pass offers great facilities for in.
terccmmunication between the various
portions Of the Union. On this route
lie the Mississippi. Missouri. and Co.
lombia rivers, and the Red River of the
North. supplying means for internal
navigation to an immense region of fer
tile and fourishing country. The lakes
and the Pacific thus connected, q ship
could proceed without breaking bulk,
from the Atlantic by way of the St.
Lawrence and the lakes to the head of
Lake Superior. and from that point her
cargo could be sent over the road pro-
p-sed. direct to the Pacific, without
transhipment.
1t can scarcely be doubted that the
great saving. both in the time and cost
,f transportation, would cause. not only
The enire American. but the entire Eu-
ropean trade with China, Japan, and

WE MET,

IA gentleman, who recently paid visit to Coney
Island has been inspired by the remembrance Of the
pleasure socisi bathing, to write the following verses
We met, twas in the briny ses
thought that sls would shun me,
Because she wore bathing dress
Aud looked SO very funny.
She put her little hand in mine
With ALTERING emotion,
And let me take her farther in
That mercilsss old ocean. ..
That there was not tho slightest risk,

When 10 . crashing breaker came,
And were both inverted.
She screamed as only woman can,
As safe to shore brought her,
And graspiug said, ''I'ys swallowed, sir

Aud, When she looked so Goiesome,
Assured her brine was thought to be
Supcrlatively wholesome.
She sazsd upon me silently,
(She couldn't speak for chokng)
But looked as if she thought the theme,
Tso ser ous for joking.
She LEFT me by the briny sea,
And through the sand she wadsd,
Then in little bathing house,
The dripping angel faded.

In beauty from the ocean,
Was Venus-and she certainly
Excited great emo ion.

Full knse-deep lies the winter snow.
And the winter winds are wearilysEighing:

And tread - softly and speak " low,
For the old year lies dying.
Old year, you must not die.
You came to Us SO readily,
You lived with n 50 steadily,
Old year, you must not die.
He lieth still he does not move;
He will not see the dawn Of day -
He hath no other life above. ..
He gave me . friend and . true, true love,
Aud the new year will take them away.
Old year, you must not 60:
90 long as you have been with ns,
Such Joy - you have seen with as,--
Old year, you shall not 60.
He frothed his bumbers to the brim .H.

But though his eyes are waxing dim, sa ..
And though his foes speak III Of him,
He was . friend to me. t...
- Old year, you shall not die. ....
We did not laugh and cry with you,
I've half . mind to die with you,
Old year, If you must die.
He was full Of joke and jest;
But all his merry quips arso'sr.
To see him die, across the wasts
His son and heir doth ride post haste, .
But he'll be dead before.
Every one for his own.
The night ID starry and cold, my friends,
Aud the new year blithe and bold, my friends.
Comes up to take his own.

The shadows filter to and fro;
The cricket chirps,-the Light burns low

Shake hands before you diel

Speak out before you die.
His face is growing sharp and thin -

Close up his syes,-tie up his shn,-
Step from his corpse; and let him in

And wa,teth At the door.
There's now . foot on the door, my friends,
And new face at the door, my friends,
And the New Year = as the door.
