THE MOUNTAINS OF LIFE.
BY JAMES @. CLARK.

There's land far away mid the stars, We are
told,
Where they know not the sorrows of time;
Where the pure waters wander thro' vallies
of gold, ..-..,. 49,.
And life is the treasure sublime;
IT'S the land Of our God, 'tis the home Of the
soul,
Where ages Of splendor eternally roll
Where the wny weary traveller reaches his goal
On the evergreen mountains oflife.
Our gaze cannot soar to that beautiful land,
But our visions have told Of its bliss, .
And our souls by the gale from its garden are
famed
When We faint in the deserts Of this.
And We sometimes have longed for its holy re-
When our spirits were torn with temptations
and woes, .r..
And we've drank from the tide Of the river that
From the evergreen mountains Of life.
o! the stars never tread the blue heavens At
night,
But We think where tn. ranssmed have trod,
And the day never 'mil'' from his palace Of
But We feel the bright smile ofour God.
We are travelling homeward thro' changes and
To kingdom where pleasures unchanging'y
And our guide is the glory that shines thro'
the tomb, ...
From the evergreen mountains Of life.

This is the flag ship" Of the b|ocka-
ding feet and flies the wide flag of Com.
modore Stringham of New York. The
Minnesota is one Of our largest steam
frigates. 5000 tons burden, rates 40 guns,
and was built at Washington in 1866
She has an auxiliary propeller-that is,
steam propulsion is only used by her in
calm weather, or when the winds are ad-
verse. She carries 600 tons of co=l, and
when under regular steam consumes 81
tons per day. Her propeller is moved BY
engines Of 450 horss power, which, in case
Of aa emergency, may he eincreased to 800
and the machinery for hoistiug and lower
ing the propeller is remarkably simple but
IF great force. She has made but one
regular cruise IN the East Indies-from
which she returned in 1858. Altho'. ra-
ted for only 40 guns, she now carries BE-
tween so and 70. Two of II ipch cali
bre, all mounted at the stern, capable If
throwing balls Of 100 pounds Weight
The same number Of guns, of equal size,
are placed in position at the bow Of the
vessel. ,~
