LONELINESS.

What constitutes true loveliness2 Not
the polished brow, the gaudy dress, nor
the show and parade of fashionable life
A. woman may have all the outward
marks of beauty and yet not possess q
lovely temperament. 1t is the benevo,
lent disposition, the kind acts and the
christian department.. 1t is the heart
where moekness, truth, affection and
humanity are found, where we look for
loveliness, nor do we look in vain The
woman that can soothe the aching heart
smooth the wrinkled brow, alleviate the
anguish of the mind, and pour the balm
of consolation in the wounded breast
possesses in an eminent degree, true
loveliness of character. She is the reaI
companion of man, and does the work
of an angel. 1t is such a character that
blesses with warmth and sunshine, and
maketh earth resemble the Praise Of
God.

A French paper says that Lucille
Rome, a pretty girl, with blue eyes and
fair hair, poorly but neatly clad, was
brought before the Sixth Court of Cor
rection, under the charge of vagranoy.
"Does any Que claim you2" asked the
magistrate.
"Ahl my good sir" said she, "I no
longer have any friends; my father and
mother are dead-I have only my
brother James, but he is as young as I
am. Oh, sir, what can be done for mel"
"The Court must send you to the
House Of Correction"
"Hcre I am, sistor-here I ami do
not fear" cried a little childish voice
from the other end of the Court. At
the same instant, a little boy, with q
lovely countenance, started forth amidst
the crowd, and stood before the Judge
"Who are youY' he said
"James Rome, the brother of this
poor little girl"
"Your age?'
"Thirteen."
"And what do you want?'

"About fortnight ago. sir, contin-

"Nover mind, Lucille" said the boy

DAILY OVERLAND NAIL.

Under date Of llth inst. there comes over
the wires from Washington, the gratifying
intelligence, that there is probability Of a
daily mail being ordered Nu the central
route from St. Joseph via. Julesburgh, to
San Francisco. The House Postof6ce Com

With ocean steamship service, appropriatirg
. sum not exceeding $500, 900 per anuum
for daily overland mail as abovs-letters
and papers to bs carried to and from st.
Joseph and San Francisco, in trenfy days,
and pamphlets and public documents, in
thirty days. Denver City aud Salt Lake
to be supplied with weekly mail by the
contractors, free Of cost. II this bill shall
pass, as there seems . probability that it
will, it will in effect give Council Bluifs q
direct daily mail to San Francisco. Thanks
to the exertions of worthy our representative
Col. CURTIS, Congress is beginning to learn
that there is such o route across the CONT
ncnt, As the Great Central Route up the
Valley Of the Platte; and, what is more, 10
giving evidence that it appreciates ito mani
fold advantages over all other routes. We
believe the day is not far distant, when the
Central Route will be the only route known
to those making overland journeys between
the two oceans. So mote it be.
