Remarkable Lakes in Portugal.

On the top of ridge of mountains in
Portugal, called Estrella, are two lakes of
great extent and depth, especially one of
them, which is said to be unfathomable.
What is chiefly remarkable in them is, that
they are calm when the sea is so, and
rough when it is stormy. tits, therefore,
probable that they have subterranean
communication with the ocean and this
seems to be confirmed by the pieces of
ships they throw up, though almost forty
miles from the sea. There is another ex-
traordinary lake in that country, which
before storm, is said to make frightful
rumbling noise, that may be heard a dis
lance of several miles. And we are also
told OF pool or fountain, called Ferven-
cias, about twenty -four miles from Combic,
that absorbs not only wood, but the light
est bodies thrown into it, such as cork,
straw, feathers, &c, which sink to the
bottom and are never seen more. To
these we may add remarkable spring
near Estreme, which petriies wood, or
rather encrusts it with case of stone !;
but the most remarkable circumstance is,
that in summer it throws up water enough
to turn several mills, and in winter is per-
fectly dry.

the time should ever come when you
shall wish to enjoy the tranquility of
private life, may you have son en-
dowed with such qualities that you can
resign your sceptre to him with as
much satisfaction as gave up mine to
you"
As soon as Charles had finished this
long address to his subjects and to their
new sovereign, he sank into a chair, ex-
hausted and ready to faint with the fatigue
of such an extraordinary effort During
his discourse, the whole audience melted
into tears, SOME from admiration of his
maguaninity, others softened by the ex-
pressions of tenderness toward his son,
and Of love ohis people; and all were
affected with the deepest sorrow at losing
a sovereign, who, during his administra-
tion, had distinguished the Netherlands,
his native country, with particular marks
of his regard and Observation-Disclosures

Nothing Finished.

once had the curiosity to look into
little girls work box, and what do you
think | found? Well, in the first place,
I found "bead purse" about half done !;
there was, however, no prospect Of it ever
being finished, for the needles were out,
and the silk upon the spools all tangled
and drawn into "A complete wisp. Laying
this aside, took up nice piece of per-
forated paper, upon which was wrough
one lid of Bible, and beneath it the
words, ~ love;'' but aohat she loved was
left for me to conjecture. Beneath the
Bible lid 1 found sock, evidently COM
monced for some baby foot; but it had
come to stand just upon the little heel,
and there it seemed doomed to remain
Near to the sock was needlebook, one
cover of which was neatly made, and upon
the other, partly finished, was marked,
"To my dear"
I need not, however, tell you all that I
found there; but this much I can say,
that during my travels through that work
box, found not single article complete;
and mute as they were, those half-fnish-
ed, forsaken things told me sad story
about that little girl. They told me that
with a heart full of generous affection,
with head full of pretty and useful pro-
jects, all of which she had both the means
and the skill to carry into effect, she was
still useless child, always doing, but new
err accomplishing her work. 1t was not a
want of industry, but want of perse0er-
ance. Remember, my dear little friends,
that it matters but little what great things
we undertake. Our glory is not in that,
but in what VIC accomplish. Nobody in
the world cares for what we mean to do;
but everybody will open their eyes by and
by, to see what men and women and little
children haze done.

THE SHADOWS OF AN AWFUL WIN
TER.-The following eloquent extract is
taken from a discourse lately delivered by
Rev. E, II. Chaplin to his congregation /:
at is not the ruined merchant, merely
1T is not the spectacle of deprecated
property and lost credit, and the manifold
discomtorts of usual bankruptcy-that
must make US shudder and grow sad
Around the gloomy shadow there is still
darker rim. Away down below the
platform Of financial transactions there
looms sea of faces-the faces of working
nieu and working women, looking up
among the stopped machinery of the fac
tories, and the silence of shipyards, and
all the desolations of suspended labor ;
looking up to the shadows of an awful
winter overcasting them. Men and breth-
rem, what shall we do for those whose
hard-earned dollars are not merely honor
and credit, but bread and blood and life
itself? What shall we do for the poorest
of babes, that must soon hang on the wilt
ed breasts Of famine, and for the women
for whom we must say something more
than God help them All, yes, finan-
cial crisis is matter for tears and shud-
dering, as we'll as for arithmetic and ru-
