a bill has been introduced into the Senate

and said that this State had more Judicial
Districts than had the great State of New
York, which has population Of nearly four
millions, while that of this State is net one
twentieth part of that number.
The time for making new counties and Ju-
dicial Districts to support political, unfortu-

hardly done respectable days work in the
State, is about past. The people and the pro-

as large as in densely populated Massachusetts,,
nor have either one>tenth the population"

In this age of speed. when we travel thirty
miles an hour are we less impatient to be at
the end of our journey than when We Travelled
ten? In this age of cheapness, are we more
satisfied with our bargains, or more benevolent
with our surplus, than formerly?
Ii has been finely abserved that "men sacri-
fee others, women themselves"
He who will break his last loaf with you,
but never his faith, is true friend.

The Immortal Mind.
BY LORD BYRON.


When ooldness wraps this suffering clay.
All, whittier strars the immortal mind!
1t cannot die. it cannot stay,
But leaves its darken'd dust behind.
Then, unembodied, doth it trace
By steps each planets heavenly way7
Or fill at once the realms OF space,
A thing of eyes, that all survey:
Eternal, boundless. undecay'd,
A thought unseen, bat seeing all,
All. all in earth, or skies displayd,
Shall it survey, shall it recall:
Each fainter trace that memory holds,
So darkly of departed years,
In one broad glance the soul beholds,
And all, that was, at once appears.
Before creation peopled earth,
Its eyes shall roll through chaos back;
And where the farihest heaven had birth,
The spirit trace its rising track,
And where the future mars or makes,
Its glance dilate DER all to be,
While sun is quenched or system breaks,
Fixed in its own eternity.
Above love, hope, hate or fear,
1t lives all passionless and pure:
An age shall feet like earthly year;
Its years as moments shall endure.
Away, away, without wing,
Der all, through all, its thoughts shall fly;
A nameless and eternal thing,
Forgetting what it was to die.
