TIE noble structure Is pattern of chaste-

doing their part I'm very creditable
and praiseworthy manner. 1t Is view
ed and looked at by thousands of the
elite of our city who traverse the Fifth
avenue night, noon and morning.
1t Is estimated that when completed
it will cost about 81 900, 900, The archi-
tecttrll, ornamental and chaste design
ings are all purly Corinthan. For ele-
gance and beauty, so far as it has pro.
gressed, 1t stands unrivaled. In fact
there Is no building to compete with it
in the city of New York, it being con-
structed of the purest and finest marble
Some estimate may be formed of the
cost when Ii Is known that ii is built
not only of the best marble, but that
the iron work alone will exceed $780,

to bottom. The roof Is beautifully
finished, being i'm itself mass of iron,
and the castings have no parallel In the
United States.
The first floor contains parlor, "a by

CEDAR FALLS, IOWA, FRIDAY MAY 8, 1867
A PRAYER.


God of the sorrowful, n soul benighted.
BY the dark shade of its own doom affrighted.
Turns from the vanities which once delighted,
Turns unto Thee.
God of the sorrowful, a bosom laden
With feartossed hopes for the far shores OF
Alden,
With faith as deep as that of trusting maiden,
Turns unto Thee.
God of the sorrowful, a spirit brit broken.
Seeking of heavens rest an earthly token,
From the deeeitful words which men have
spoken,
Turns unto Thee.
God of the sorrowful q reason firing
OF the creations of it's own aspiring,
Nought but fulfltment of Thy will desiring,
Turns unto Thee.
God of the sorrowful, mine eyes from rivers
OF tears availing not for unbelievers
Turn to the fount whose cleansing wave de.
nvers,
Turn unto Thee.
God OF the sorrowful as earth and ocean
Turn toward the throne of light in ceaseless
So doth my Sss being 5 ever new devotion
Turn unto Thee.
God of the sorrowful, my soul deliver
From the illusions of the fell deeeiver;
Oh let Its love and admiration ever
Turn unto Thee.

Harry Moss, of the Vicksburg Times

his paper spicy series of adventures.
We annex his visit to Ristori:

You can't prove it by me, for the only
thing l understood, or, in other words,

When she was launching her tubular

Ristori is an actress, and If any one
ever has, she has measured the height
and sounded the depth of tragedy.
IL seemed to me, last night, that at
times every man and woman in the
vast audience felt and looked as If some
dire calamity were impending over
each one of them individually
ing but the sublimest personiiication
of the tragic muse herself could evoke
such q sensation.

An eloquent Passage.

phe finest thing Geo. ID. Prentice
ever wrote, is this ininitable passagee
"It cannot he that earth Is mans
only abiding place. 1t cannot be that
our life is bubble, cast up by the ocean
of eternity, to float moment on its
waves and sink into nothingness.-
ElseGfiy Is Ii, the high and glorious
aspirations, which leap like angels from
the temple Of our hearts, are forever
wandering, unsatisfied? Why Is 1t,
that the rainbow and cloud come over
us with a beauty that Is not Of earth.
and then pass off to leave us to muse
on their loveliness Why Is it that
the stars, which "hold their festival
around the midnight throne,n are set
above the grasp of our limited faculties;
forever mocking us with their unap-
proachable glory! And, finally, why
Is it that bright forms of human beau
ty are presented to our view and taken
from as; leaving the thousand streams
of our affections to flow back In an AL
pine torrent upon our hearts? We are
born for higher destiny than that Of
earth. There is realm where the
rainbow never fades; where the stars
will be spread out before US like islands
that slumber or the ocean, and where
the beautiful beings which pass before
us, will stay forever in our midst"

A DIR. Stark, of London, has Just
made known to the public most im-
portant fact, one OF vital interest to
young men. After patient and conclu-
sive research, the practitioner I'm ques-
tion, has ascertained that between the
ages of twenty years and twenty-five,
the death rate of bachelors Is double
that OF married men. In other words
out of every hundred bachelors who
die, fifty might have avoided such a
fate had they but married In time.
Those who escape the deadly perils
which beset their earlier years, still
find the same fatal proportion against
them in the after life. The statistical
information produced by DIR. Stark
shows beyond a question, that between
twenty-five and thirty years of age,
the death rate with bachelors is 1877
per thousand, whereas during the same
period 1t is only S.6 among married
men. Continuing the comparison the
English doctor proves that between
thirty and thirty-flve married men
leave this pleasant and mundane
sphere at the rate of nine per thousand
whilst l4.7 is the figure for the less for
tunate bachelors. Advancing i'm age
the huge difference i'm favor Of the BEN
edicts is lessened of course, but up to
the last stages I'm life the bachelors
have the worst of II, as, according to
the tables of DIR. Stark, the married
men go off at the rate of 1873 per one
thousand, and the bachelors at 43.3 per
one thousand.

WE suppose the largest price ever
paid for a course of popular lecturer In
this country, If not In any other coun-
try, was received by Professr Agassiz
for his recent course in New York on
the natural history OF Brazil, delivered
under the auspices of the Association
for the Advancement Of Science. The
price demanded by, and paid to, him
was five hundred dollars for each leet-
ure, or three thousand dollars for the
course of six lecturs. Taking the time
he devoted To each lecture-that is to
say, an average OF one hour and forty
minutes--it thus appears that he re-
ceivcd five dollars n minute for every
minute nc spoke, which Is a salary
equal TO that of an ordinary Emperor.
The Association which engaged his SER
vices did not lose by the operation, but
on the contrary received very hand
some surplus for Its treasury. Mr..
Bancroft says the audiences were the
largest he ever knew In attendance

tune, appears at pnblic gatherings, aud Is

to a throne which he is not likely to occupy.
The Emperor is about to buy an estate for him,
and is said to have selected the historic ground
lying between Bourg la Refine aud Sccaux, now
the property OF the Duke of Trevlso, TOR the
tutule residence of his son. The house on the
estate was built by Henry lV for Gabrielle d'E3-
trees. The Emperor Is said to have offered the
Duke OF TreyisO three mil ions for the estate, but
the Duke demands four millions.

resigned his place aud has since published a
