THE GREAT MYSTERY.

The following beautiful passage
is taken from Timothy Titcomb's, or
DR.. Hollands, "Preaching upon
Popular Pro@srb's," which the
Springfield (Mass.) Republican is
now giving to the world:
The body is to die; so much is
certain. What lies beyond? No
one who passes this charmed boun-
dary comes back to tell. The inn
agination visits tho realms of sha.
dows-sent out from some window
of the soul over life's restless wa
ters, but wings its way wearily back
with an olive leaf in its bsak as a
token of emerging life beyond the
closely bending horizons The great
sun comes and goes in heaven, yet
bleathes no secret of the ethereal
wilderness; the crescent moon
cleaves her nightly passage across
the upper deep, bat tosses overheard
no message, and displays no signals.
The sentinel stars challenge each
other as they walk their nightly
rounds, but we catch no syllable ef
their countersign which gives pas
sage to the heavenly camp. Shut
in! Shut in! Between this and
the other life is a great gulf fixed,
across which neither eye nor foot
can travel. The gentle friend whose
eyes we closed in their last sleep
long years ago, died with rapture in
her wonder-stricken eyes, smile Of
ineffable joy upon her lips, and
hands folded over o triumphant
heart; but her lips were past speech,
and intimated nothing of the vision
that enthralled her.

have managed to construct it unu-.
sually cheap, and with little cash in
hand; but without any inconvenience
of liens or mortgages to effect the
credit Of the company.
For a more definite account, we
refer you to the report of the Trea-
surer, which is herewith submitted.
The report of the Chief Engineer on
final work of the first division of the
road, his report on the surveys, &c.
on the line of the second division,
extending to Georgetown, are also
respectfully submitted.
10 the stockholders on the oxten-
sion from Milford to Georgetown,
the Board feel under many obliga-
tions, for their liberal subscriptions
and deep interest manifested in the
enterprise, and are desirous of COM
plying with their wishes, by putting
that portion of the road under con-
tract for graduation in the spring,
Three lines have been surveyed by
I. f. Tilghman, Esq, and estima-
tion made, with satisfactory maps
and profiles, which are in the office
of the company. The middle or
western line will doubtless be adopt
cd, depending much, however, upon
the additional subscriptions and
right of way that may be rendered
on the two lines in connection with
the difference in the estimates in
reference to such division.
The construction of this portion
of the road to Georgetown, while it
is of much Importance to Milford, is
of vital interest to the people of
Sussex, and when finished, must
furnish strong guarantee that the
road will be extended to its ultimate
terminus, the Delaware Brsakwater.
In advancing the second division
of the road, your Board that may be
elected, in putting the same under
contract for graduation and ballast
ing, will no doubt be governed by
the available means at hand, and
hope, will be able by prudent
management, to provide for its COM
pletion, at no distant day, thereby
pursuing the line Of policy adopted
in commencing the first division,
and which has resulted in its sue
cessful termination without any
debt or obligation, as before stated,
resting over it, to effect the credit of
the company.
By order of the Board,
P. F. CAUsEY, Prest.

of thin arrowroot. 1t was the pro-
per boiling Of the water that made
the difference here. Again, two
ounces Of rice were saved on every
four puddings when the nurse made
the puddings- Such incidents show
that it is not enough to have the
best materials for nourishment; they
must be husbDnded in the prepara-
ton. 1t seems probable that, by
sensible conduct all around, every
body might command enough of the
best material fer food; and it is GER
tain that very small proportion Of
the wives ofsEnglishmen know how
to do justice 10 the food they buy. -

DISTRESSING CALAMITY!

Fall of the Pemberton Hills
Building, at Laurence, Mass
Nearly Seven Hundred Persons
Buried IN tile Ruins-Over 1s0o
Hundred Killed-Natmbers Mortal
ly Wounded or Mutilated
BOSTON, Jan. 10.--The Pember-
ton Mills, at Lawrence, Mass, en-
ploying from four to FIVE hundr ed
operatives, fell this afternoon, bury
ing nearly every person in the
ruins.
The mangled bodies are being
taken out by the cartlond.
1t is supposed that over two hun
dred persons were instantly killed.
sECoND DESPATCH
LAWRENCE, Mass, Jan. 10, 8
o'clock, p. M.-The Pemberton Mills
fell in suddenly at about five O'clock
this evsning, while from six to seven
hundred operatives were at work.
The mills are a complete wreck.
1t is supposed thar from two to
three hundred bodies are buried in
the ruins.
1t is impossible at present to give
a correct account of the loss of life.
Eighteen dead bodies have already
been taken out; twenty-five mortally
wouneed, and fifty in different stages
of mutilation.
Ths Agent of the Mills and the
Measurer escaped by running from
the falling building.
1t is impossible yet to tell the
cause of the fall of the building.
The scene beggars all description.
Some two or more acres of ground
are piled up with every description
Of machinery and the fallen ruin.
Huge bonfres are burning, to afford
light to some two or three thousand
persons, who are working as if for
their lives, to rescue the unfortunate.
many of whom are begging to be
released from their tortures by death.
Every few minutes some poor
wretch is dragged from his or her
Rrsp, uttering the most heartrend-
ing cries while being drawn out with
legs and arms crushed or torn to
pieces.

BONNIE BELL.

Like two rosebuds crushed in snow,
Are the cheeks of Bonnie Bell,
Like the violets that grow g
'Mong the daises in the dell
Are her eyes-the star Of night,
Ne'er a mortal heart did swell
With such pure and fond delight
AS the eyes of Bonnie Bell!
Music trembles ON the lip 81.
Of the fairy Bonnie Bell;
Oh! I'd give such sweets to sip,
Wealth that Crsesus ne'er could
tell aa
I'would coin my brain and soul,
Could the mintage buy spell
That would watt me to my goal
Watt and win me Bonnie Bell!
As the sound Of silver fine,
Is the voice of Bonnie Bell;
Wit, like bubbles on the wine,
Pure as pearls in ocean shell,
Sparkle through her golden theme;
Joyful as a marriage bell
/ could glide adown life's stream,
In one boat with Bonnie Bell!

A S SKNT gH,
THE DEAD ALIVE-EXTRA-
ORDINARY COMBINATION
~sf OF CIRCUMSTANCES.

The simple and truthful narra-
tives of personal and family advcn-
ture often exceed in strange interest
the fictitious stories of romance, and
the realities Of common life, the vicis-
situdes and misfortunes of individ-
uals, may often be traced to a single
circumstance---the first link in the
chain of Providence by which all the
other events in their lives may be
said to be suspended. The follow
ing extraordinary combination of
circumstances is striking exempli-
fication of these remarks; and we
shall proceed to tell the story in a
way as plain and simple as we can,
only promising that although, for
obvious reasons, the names of the
parties interested, are not mentioned,
the details are in every respect
strictly true.
Some where about thirty years
ago, at a place nearly twenty miles
from London, boy about eleven
years of age was returning from
school with his sister. They were
amusing themselves on the road by
running after and touching each
other alternately in their youthful
'glee. They had arrived at large
playground or green, and he had
i'tigged" and touched his sister, and
had given her a slap on the face,
when she gave him push R.yh her
hand, whereby he was overbalanced,
and he fell into large we'll behind;
and,. timid and amazed at his sudden
Disappearance, owing to her mad
vertant act, off she ran. For some
days a strict search in all directions
was instituted for the boy, but with
out avail. Advertisements in the
newspapers were also resorted to
without effect; and the girl, bewil-
dersd, doubling, and still hoping
that her brother might yet make

MISCELLANEOUS,
THE WITS.

1t needs no guilt to break hus-
bands heart. The absence of con-
tent, the mutterings of spleen, the
untidy dress and cheerless home, the
forbidding scowl and deserted
hearth--these, and other nameless
neglects, without a crime among
them, have narrowed to the quick
the hearts core Of many man, and
planted there, beyond she reach of
cure, the germ of dark despair. 0,
may woman, before that sight arri-
YES, dwell on the recollections of
her youth, and cherishing the dear
idea of that tuneful time, awaken
and keep alive the promise she so
kindly gave. And though she may
be the injured, not the injuring one
the forgotten and not the forget
ting wife-a happy allusion to the
hour Of peaceful love-a kindly well
come to q comfortable home-a
smile Of welcome to Danish hostile
words-a kiss of peace to pardon all
the past, and the hardest heart that
ever locked itself within the breast
of selfish man, will soften to her
charms, and bid her live, as she had
hoped, her years of matchless bliss
loved, loving and content-the
source of comfort and the spring Of
Joy. : L p

ARTICLES OF DIET.

The useful articles of diet are nu-
merous, and the commonest we have.
As to the quantity required, the
prize-fghter, who requires most, has
thirty4six ounces per day, be-
sides the innutritious portion which
everybody swallows at every meal.
For women, twenty ounces may
suffice, though a large allowance is
better. Healthy working men ought
to have from twenty-five to thirty
ounces. The greatest amount of
nourishment Of both kinds is con-
tanned in flour, meat, potatoes and
peas; milk, cheese, rice, and other
grains, and sugar; while tea, coffee,
and cocoa are in great value in their
way. Such are the materials; but
they may be SO treated in the cook
ing as to waste what is most valua-
Bile, and preserve what is of the
least consequence. 1t is possible
to manage the making ola stew, so
as to wash away the bsst qualities
of the meat, and leave the yegeta-
bles hard, and drain away the thick
ening, causing a predominant taste
of smoke and salt. When Miss
Nightengale and her assistants un-
dertook to cook in the Eastern Hos
pitfalls, they made pint of thick
arrowroot from one ounce of the
powder, while in the general kitchen
it toook two ounces to make pint
