THE RIVER OF LIFE.

Blood is the mighty river Of lie. tho
mysterious center Of chemical aud vital
actions as wonderful AS they are inG>pvn>i.
bIc soliciting our intention no less bv the
many problems it presents to speculative
ingenuity, that by The practical conclusions
torrent mpe,uou~lv rushing through every
part Of the body, carrying, by an elaborate
net work Of vessels, which in the course Of
twelve months, convey to The various tis-
sues not less than three thousand pounds
weight of nutritive material, and conveyed
from the various tissues three Thousand
pounds weight Of waste. At every ma
ment Of our liv, 3 II erc;.rc nearly ten pounds
of this fluid rushing in one continuous
,hohbng stream, from the heart through
the great arteries, which branch and branch
Ike tree, the vessels becoming smaller and
smaller rs they subdiv<,lr, till they are in.
visible tc the nakc,! eye. and then they are
called capiIIarics, (har-liic vcsscls,) ailhongl,
they arc no more to be compared TO hairs,
| than hairs are with cables.
These vessels form net work finer than
the finest lace-so fine, indeed, that if we
pierce the surface at almost any part with
the point Of neclIe, we open one Of them,
and let out its blood. In these vessels tho
blood yields some Of lis nutrient materials,
ane receives in exchange some Of the vast
ed products Of tissue; thus modified, the
stream continues its rapid course back TO
the heart, through system Of veins, wh:h
commences in the myriad Of capillaries
which form Tie termination Of the arteries.
The veins, instead of suhlividng like the
arteries, become gradually less and and less
numerous, their twigs entering. branches,
and their branches entering t'"uks, until
they reach the heart. No sooner has the
blood poured into the hear. from the veins
than it ru>heS through the lungs, and from
back again to the heart and arteries, thus
completing the circle, or circulation.
This wonderful! stream, constantly circu-
latins, occupies the very centre Of the vital
organism, midway between the functions of
nutrition and cxcrction, feeding and s,inula-
ting the organs into activity, and removing
from them all their useless material. In its
torrent, upward of forty different substances
= are hurried a long it carries gasscs, it car
lies salt-it even carries metals and soaps
Millions Of organized cells float in its liquid !;
and Of these cells which by some are con-
sidered organized entities, twenty millions
are said TO die at every pulse Of the heart,
to be replaced by other millions. The iron
which it washes onward can be separated
Professor Berard used to exhibit a lump of
, it in his lecture room-nav, one ingenious
Frenchman has suggested that coins should
be struck from the metal extracted from the
blood Of great men.

DEATH OF ALEXANDER THE GREAT.

"Upon this" continues Arrian, "the soldiers
became eagar to sec him. some to see him once
more alive, others because it'wns reported that
he was already dead, and suspicion had arisen
that his death was concealed by the chief Off
GERS of the guard-but the anxiety. rs think,
from sorrow and solci,ude for their king: they
there fore forced their way into his chamber
As the men passed his couch in succession, he
although spcechess greeted them individually
by raising his head with difficulty and by the
expression of his eyes,"
Storm warriors pass before their chief,
And tears beiim their eyes;
Those warriers now are filled with grief
For 10! their leader dies.
His conquering squndrons once lie lead,
And victory crowned the fight;
Before his host whole armies fled,
And trembling owned his might.
His banners waved mid Scythian SHOWS
Aud Ger Gedrosian sands
And where the noble Indus flows,
He lead his veteran bands.
But Macedon thy hero now
No more will draw his blade,
Deaths dews are falling on his brow
And visions from him fade.
That eagle eye will glance no more
Along his columns closed,
Nor flash defiance as Of yore,
On hostile ranks opposed.
His war steed now will neigh in vain
Ills rider lying low,
For he'll neer mount that steed again,
And charge upon the foe.
And yet, his is deathless name,
Living from age to age,
Conspicuous on the scroll of fame,
: And bright on history's page
y Sleep on, thou dauntless hero sleep,
A king still in the grave,
What tho earths storms should Ger thee
sweep,
They cannot wake the brave.
