VETO OF THE COLORADO BILL.-Referring
TO the rumored veto of the Colorado Bill,
the Chicago Times remarks:
There is a pretty well substantiated ru-
NOR that the bill admitting Colorado will
be vetoed. 1t is to be hoped that this is
true. The President should not allow him
self to be a party to the iniquitous admis-
sion of State Of only 25.O0O people, and
whose admission is desired by the radicals
simply TO gain two additional votes. Let
the President place the responsibility of
admitting Colorado upon the radicals, where

between two of the greatest monsters OF
the age: There is between PRoBsr and

resemblance. Both are about five feet seven

a stoop in the shoulders. Both served in

the right hand, purposely shooting it of, in

Origin of the Aster.

At the time when the Redeemer was yet child,
Hsheavenly Father sent angels down from heaven,
and gave them the form of boys that they might
play with little Jesus and with the other piOus
children of Jerusalem. One day it came to pass
that John, who afterwards became the favorite
disciple of our Saviour, went with his heavenly
playmates into a beautiful flower garden. The
evening was growing dusk and the stars were
twinkling brighter and brighter from out the dark
sky. Then the angel said to John:
Now will 60 to seep.n
But where is thy bed, dear stranger" asked
John.
Above there, among the stars" replied the
All, how delightful it must be to sleep there p?
sighed the little fellow; " if could only go along
with thee ~
" Thy bed Is prepared already up there" said
the angel, comforting him; "bnt first thou must
take thy rest on this earth, tired and weary yet
while, my poor child"
The boy understood not the last words Of the
angel, and in haste plucked nosegay Of roses and
lilies, to give them to his dear playfellow as a re-
memhrance of him till the following morning.
There, now, thou hast a nosegay," said he to
the angel 50 and tomorrow morning forget not to
bring me one from above there; for thou must
IhaveFmuch larger and far more beautiful flowers
up there than ours are hereN
" That we certainly have,n answered the angel
&c but we cannot bring them down to thee. Dost
thou see the stars twnkling in the heavens? Those
are our flowers but thew are SO large and so
bright, that with thy small, weak eyes thou
coudst with difficulty look at them. even if / were
to bring them asnear to thee as these roses and
lilies cannot explain it all to thee clearly but
those flowers are not planted in soil like this EARTH
but in the sky, and receive their nourishment, not
| from the SUMS rays but from the light Of Gods
| eyes. However, tomorrow, | will bring thee an
atom of the sunny dust of one Of those flowers
which we can sow in your earth and who knows
| what may come out of it?'
The angel kissed the child and vanished And
the next morning he came back again, as he had
promised, and brought with him bright, shining
1 little seed This they planted together in the
ground, and watered it every morning and even.
ing with fresh water, which the angel always car.
ried in his own hand. And little John told all the
good children in Jerusalem that he had sown
star in his garden, and the children came every day
to see if the star had appeared. And behold! ii
the autumn there grew and blossomed beautiful
brilliant flower of round form, encirced by sew
eral small leaves, like the rays of a star; ant
hence it not inappropriately retained the ceestia
name which the children had given it for aster
means, in English, a star.
And in the evening, when stand beside bed
of asters, and above them and me the stars
twinkling, begin to rise, it often seems to me as
they were whispering to one another about thei
old relationship, and as if the flowers longed II
fly upward5and the stars to come downwards Ii
embrace each other with fraternal love.

THE MAELsTR0M FERTFIED,-Of late years.
even the existence of the MaelstrOm on the coast
of Norway has been doubted, but tine Maelstrom
actually exists, and is sometimes dangerous. Mr..
Hagerup, minister of the Norwegian marine, has
recently given q reliable account of it, in reply to
some questions from a correspondent of the Bos
ton Recorder. The vast whirl is caused by the
setting in and out Of the tides between Lofoden and
Mosken and it is most violent halfway between
ebb and flood tide. At food and ebb tide it disap-
pears for about half an hour, but begins again
with the moving of the waters. Large vessels
may pass over it safely in serene weather, but in a
storm it is perous to the largest craft. Small
boats are not safe in any weather. The whirls in
vessels under the water but by their violence dash
them upon the neighboring shoals. Mr.. Hagerup
says
''ln winter it frequently happens that, at sea, a
bank ofclOuds show a west storm, with a heavy
sea- to be prevailing there while further ill., on the
coast the clear air shows thaton the inside of west
tiiord, east side Of Lof0dOn, the wind blows from
the land, and sets out through the tiOrd from the
east. In such cases especially an approach to the
Maelstrom is in the highest degree dangerous, for
the stream and under-current from opposite direc-
tons work there together, to make the whole pas
sage one single boiling cauldron. At such times
appear the mighty whirs which have given it the
name of Maestrom that is, the whirling or grind
ing stream and in which no craft whatever car
hold its course. For steamer it is then quite in
during the winter storm, and fora sailing vessel
1T may also be bad enough in time of summer
should there fall calm or light wind whereby the
power of the stream becomes greater than that o
the wind, leaving the vessel no longer undel
command.
