A WORD TO YOUNG LADIEs.-Do
not dismiss your habits of study when
you cease to attend school. That crisis
is often a hazardous one in the history
Of a young lady. If she has gained
distinction there without radical love
Of knowledge, her improvement ceases
with the excitement which sustained it.
If a latent fondness for expensive dress
and fashionable amusements were cher
ished in her period of classical educa-
ton, she will rush into them with an
eagerness proportionate to her previous
restraint. Satisfied with past honors,
and believing that she ''has already
attained and is already perfect" she
slumbers at her post, and in few years
sees those outstripping her whose talents
she once held in contempt. Every
young lady who, at leaving school, en-
tertains clear and comfortable con-
viction that she has finished her edu-
cation, should recollect the reproof of
the venerable DIR. Rush to young
physician who spoke of the time when
he finished his studies: 'When you
finished your studies! Why, you must
be a happy man to have finished SO
young. do not expect to finish mine
so long as live." There is an affect
ing lesson in the death of that philoso-
pher who, after it was supposed that life
had forsaken him, family raised his
head to listen to some improving con-
versation that was conducted in his
chamber, and even drew the curtain,
saying, 81 shall be happy to die learn
ing something Mrs. Sigourney.

The Tread Of Time.
BY THOMAS COLE.

Hark | hsas the tread of Time,
Marching DER the fields sublime.
Through the portals OF the past.
When the stars by God were cast
On the deep, the boand.ess vast.
Onward. onward still he strides,
Nations chnging TO his sides:
Kingdoms crushed he tramples DER;
Fame s shrill trnmpef. battles roar,
Storm like rise, then speak no more.
Io. he nears rs-awful Time
Bearing on his wings sublime
All our seasons, fruit and flower.
Joy and hope, and love ami power;
Alb. be grasps the present hour.
Underneath his mantle dark.
See, a spectre grim and stark,
At his girdle like sheath.
Without passion, Voice or breath.
Ruin dealing: Beath-tis Death,
Stop the ruffian, Time lay hold.
Is there then no power so bold,
None to fhwart him in his ways
Wrest from him his precious prey,
And the tyrant robber slay7
Struggle not. my foolish soul;
Let Times garments roand thee roll.
Time, Gods seryant--think no scorl-
Gathers up the sheaves of corn.
Which the spectre, Death, has shorn.
Brightly through the orient far
Soon shall rise a glorious star;
Cumbered then by Death no more,
Time shall fold his pinions hoar,
And be named the Evermore.

would not let him kiss them. She
abused him for some time, and then went
back to the wagon and put her hand in.
Boswell dropped his hand on the stock
of his pistol, but did not draw it. When
she saw his hand in that position, she
rushed on him and seized the pistol with
both hands, when it was drawn out of
the sheath. She had the full command
of both the barrel and the lock, and
Boswell of the stock. In this way, the
first shot was fred by her own hand.
He did not know that it had taken effect
more than to pass through her clothes,
for she still struggled hard for the pistol;
but he got the pistol and fred at her,
and she fell. He says, when he got the
pistol, he should have left, but she had
done him so much wrong, and he was
mad. He went about twenty yards
from the spot, and his passion cooled of,
apd he went back and put down her
dress and left. He could not speak to
his children. The knife that was found
was Boswell's-it had fallen from his
belt during the struggle, or she had
drawn it, and had no time to use it.
Club-foot was not there-he was with
the horses on the green. Boswell then
left, and the first man lie net, he told
him he had shot his wife, and asked him
to look after his children while he went
for the Sheriff. He then saw another
man, and lold him, also, that he had
shot his wife. On his arrival at the
fremont Hotel, he was asked what was
up, when he again said that he had shot
his wife, land went with Mr. McCommons
to the Jail. He winds up with saying
that this is a true statement he
said he shot his wife, and on these words
he was tried and convicted. When his
counsel first saw him and asked him
about his case, he said he had shot his
wife. His counsel informed him that
he would require to keep his mouth
closed, if he had to take charge of his
case. He is satisfied his counsel did
all they could for him, and compliments
Sheriff Smith for his attentions while in
the Jail. He was never asked for an
explanation or statement, or he should
have made one. To show the character
of the woman he murdered, he states in
closing paragraph that in 1859, in Ne
vada, she attempted to shoot him, and
the Sheriff had to interfere and make
peace. Also, that he had to leave the
Philadelphia House, in Marysville, in
1859, on account of her vulgar express
sions; but, she being the mother of his
children, he put up with it all for their
sake. THOMAS Boswell,

The Egyptians believed that at some
future time the souls of men would be
allowed to return to the resting places
of their bodies, and if these last were in
state of preservation, there was re-
union and the enjoyment Of a new state
of existence. If the earthly tenement
had been decomposed or destroyed, the
spiritual essence was now DOOMED to
perish. Hence the pious attention paid
to the embalming of ancestors. and the
judicial destruction of the dead bodies
of those whose lives had been eminently
wicked.

is the Falls Of Niagara, where the water
from the great upper lakes form river
of three quarters of mile in length,
and then, being suddenly contracted,
plunges over the rocks, in two columns.

feet. The greatest cavern in the world
is the Mammoth Cave, in Kentucky,
where any one make a voyage on the
waters of subterranean river, and
catch fish without eyes. The greatest
river in the world is the Mississippi,
four thousand and one hundred miles in
length. The largest valley in the world
is the Valley Of the Mississippi. 1t
contains FIVE hundred thousand square
miles, and is one of the most fertile and

The names Of the mothers Of Moses. Of
Samuel, of Timothy, and other eminent
men, are recorded; and so are the
names of the mothers of the wicked
kings generally recorded, as if to tie
them to the disgrace of their sons. 0,
mother! amid all your anxieties and
! labors, be assured that the time is coming
when your name and image will fill the
chambers of the memories of your chill
dren as no other can. You are garnering
up love, respect, and veneration, which
will gather around your coffin, if not
before. You viii grow in the hearts of
your children as long as you live. o,
son of the good mother! remember that
she hath spared nothing that the human
heart could yield for thy good! Let
thy love and gratitude and reverence
flow back upon her; and, if her hair is
becoming silvered with age, remember
that thy opportunities to administer to
her comfort are every day becoming
fewer. God help thee to cheer her,

The SECRETS OF THE DEEP.-What
has become of the inumerable bones and
teeth and scales of fishes which, for all
the years gone by, have died in the
broad Atlantic Where are the re-
mains of the many ships that have been
swallowed up by the waves? Where
the gravel-heaps left behind by the
icebergs that have been melted in float
ing down from the Polar Sea Where,
also, the substances drifted across the
Gulf Stream and other currents that
traverse the ocean! Nothing-not one
solitary indication Of all these, but in
their place, everywhere extending, a
fine, impalapable, tenacious mud, made
up of particles Of carbonate of lime,
the food perhaps Of whales and other
fishes Of the surface, but more probably
OF the inhabitants Of those great depths
which animals more highly organized in
vain would attempt to penetrate. Truly
may we say that the secrets of the
great deep are mysterious and grand,
and that the search of them repays the
the labor of investigation.

OREGoN'S GREAT CUR1osITY.-The
great ''Sunken Lake." situated within
the Cascade Mountains, about seventy
five miles northeast from Jacksonville,
rivals the famous Valley of Sinbad the
Sailor. 1t is thought to average two
thousand feet down to the water all
around. The walls are almost perpen-
dicular, running down to the water and
leaving no beach. The depth of the
water is unknown, and its surface is
smooth and unruffied, as it lies so far
below the summit of the mountain that
the air currents do not affect it. Its
length is estimated at twelve miles, and
its width at ten. There is an island
in the center, having trees upon it. No
living man ever has been, and probably
none will ever be able to reach the
waters edge. 1t lies silent, still and
mysterious in the bosom of the Sever
lasting hills like huge well seooped
out by the hands of some giant genii
of the mountains in the unknown ages
gone by, and around it the primeval
forests watch and ward are keeping.
The Sentinel says: "The visiting par
ty fired a rifle several times into the
water at an angle of forty-fve degrees,
and We're able to note several seconds
of time from the report of the gun un-
til the ball struck the water. Such
seems incredible, but it is vouched for
by some cf our most reliable citizens
The lake is certainly most remarka-
bic curiosity"

Justice to Those who Saved the
Country.

1t is fact, which history hereafter
will vindicate, that the hard fighting
done by our men in arms saved the
Government from destruction. There
never was a war in. the results of
which diplomacy had SO little share.
Had it been otherwise !; had meddling
politicians been allowed to interfere,
the war would have been ended In
disgrace to the Government, and the
insurgents been allowed to leave the
field with banners flying and bayonets
fixed, in all the pomp of victorious
host As it was, however, the leaders
of the Federal forces, as well as every
man who served the Government as a
soldier, discharged their duty-the re-
bellion was put down by the clear vim
dication of the National authority,
and the Government to-day stands
before the world with all its powers,
prestige, justice and ability for self
preservation fully sustained. And in
view of this noble performance of a
great duty, it has been the policy of
the friends of the Government to do
full justice to those who saved it. It
has been the purpose Of all loyal men
to deal equally and exactly with all
who took part in the struggle. The
soldiers of 1961-62, twill be remem-
bered, went into the Service without
any of the benefit of bounties. Those
whesenlisted after that date received
large bounties. zIthas therefore been,
and still is, the policy of The true
Union men of the country, at some
future day, to remunerate the soldiers
of 1961-62--to make. up to those he
roes or their legal Representatives. the
full amount received by others who
served in the army.
But it will depend somewhat upon the
soldiers. themselves as to whether this is
done, Should the Government fall into the
hands of the enemies of the Union soldiers
