A Beautiful Figure.

Lie is beautifully compared to "a fountain
fed by thousand streams, that perish if ore
be dried. 1t Is a silver chord twisted with
a thousand strings that part asunder if Que
be broken Fraiiand thoughtless mortals are
surrounded by innumerable dangers, which
make it much more strange that they escape
50 long. than that they almost all perish sud
denly at last We are encompassed with ac-
cidonts to crush the mouldering tenementsw we
inhabit. The seeds of disease are planted in
our constitutions by nature. The earth and
atmosphere whence we draw the breath of
life are imyregnated with death; health is
made 10 operate its own destruction; the food
that nourishes containing the clements of de-
cay; the soul that animates it, by vivifying
first, tends to wear it out by its own action ;
death turks in ambush along the paths.
notwithstanding this is the truth so palpably
confirmed by the daily example before our
eyes, how little do we lay it at heart We
see friends and neighbors die among US, but
how seldom does it occur to opr thoughts that
our nel,shall perhaps give the next fruit
less warning to the world

The Dogma of State Sovereignty.

Whenever man Is heard to play upon
the old and thread bare string of State
Rights" and ''State Sovereignty" the con-
clusiOn may at once be safely drawn that
he is unsound at heart, in relation to putting
down the rebellion and restoring the Nation
al authority. Under our National Coisti
tuition there never has been nor can be such
thing as seperate and independent State
Sovereignty Sovereignty pre- supposeS
something supreme 1t acknowledges no
right of interference or contract on the part
of any ether authority. If one of the States
of the Union could assert Sovereign author
ity, it could enter into any alliance or make
any treaty that it might deem proper with
any foreign power. For wise purposes, po-
lftical Sovereignty never was lodged with
one of the States The very fact that no
intercourse can take place with any foreign
power only through the medium OF the gen
eral Government, clearly demonstrates the
intention of the trainers of the Constltu-
ton to keep the States in a subordinate po-
stion. Foreign powers, all over the Globe,
deal and hold intercourse alone with the Ma
tional Government
In looking back through the history Of all
active and prominent Secesslonlsts, 1t VIII be
found that they were earnest advocates OF
the dogma of ''State Sovereignty The
chief object of the false doctrines SO persIs-
tently urged on this subject, was to weaken
the public regard and affection for the Ma
tional authority, and thus pre- epare for the
destruction of the Union. state Sover-
eighty practically applied means the de-
struction of the Republic, or in other words
National Suicide.
Let every true patriot, then, set his face
like flint against the further propagation Of
this monstrous political hereSy. The great

authority is, and of right ought to be, all
powerful and supreme, The present terri

saying, that independence day was not for

however, made preparations for celebra-

tell you we had good time. There were
about four hundred people in attendance;
Not more than so OF this number belonged

LIGHT AND SHADOW.

You who judge by what you see,
Often fail to judge ari hit;
Stars are shining solemnly,
In the day as in the night
All the day they lie concealed
By the glory of the sun;
But at eve they shine revealed
In the azure. one by one.
so the daylight of a smile,
May but veil the human face,
Hiding for littls While,
Doubt, and care, and sorrows trace
So, when shadow-c clouds of woe
Der happy face arise,
Still beneath the shadows glow
Stars of joy in gentle eyes.
Life is arched with changing skies;
Rarely are they what they seem;
Smiles we have, and also sighs-
Much we know but more we dream,
Look beneath the outward show:
To the sh adow or the light;
And, from what you surely know,
Learn to see and judge Alright

Thoughts, at the Falls of Niagara.
By G. SHULTZ

By G. SHULTz.
On October first, in sixty-three,
We approached the Falls to see.
We heard Niagara's waters roar,
Down a hundred feet, or more
And when the falls we did view.
Twas a scence sublime and new
The tbund ring cataract rushes down,
And rocks and shakes the very ground.
The American falls are very grand
Next, Goat-Island' solid land
Where Sam Patch made his famous leap
Into NiagaTa's roaring deep.
Ehe curying falls. on Canada's side,
Are not so high, but more wide.
Great Nature . works So grand! sublime

en- hundred thousand men have been placed
