to 20 feet deep and founded - 10 35 ieci below
the surface The abutmcnts and piers were ali

steam machinery to the solid rock, on which

LOCAL NEWS.

During several interesting conversations in
which we have of late partic pated, the question
of love has been discussed with the utmost lat
itude; and invariably the conclusion arrived at
by majority of those engaged was, that appa-
rent superior intellectual qualifications on the
part of girl so far from inducing the attack OF
the blind god, tended rather to drive him OIL
and that really sensible girl, who wished to
render herself lovable in her tete a tete CONVEX
Stations with young gentleman, would endeav-
OF to conceal her knowledge. We don't say
whether We agree with these accepted conclu-
sions, but will append the following anecdote:
s'Some one speaking Of beautiful girl with
enthusiasm, said he was almost in love with
her, though her understanding was by no means
brilliant. ''Pooh!" said Goethe, laughing;
as if love had anything to do with understand
ing We love girl for very different things
than UNDERSTANDING. We love her for her
beauty, her youth, her mirth, her ca prices, and
Heaven knows what other inexpressible charms;
but we do not love her understanding. Her
mind We esteem, (if it is Brilliant and 1t may
greatly elevate her in our opinion; nay, more,
it may enchain us when we already love. But
her understanding is not that which awakens
and inhames our passions
