ANOTHER WESTERN WONDER. - The
greatest wonder in the State of Iowa, and
perhaps any other State, is what they call
''Walled Lake, /" in Weight county, twelve
miles on the Dubuque and Pacific Railway,
and about one hundred aud fifty miles west
Of Dubuque City. iao
The water is from two to three feet higher
than the earth's surface In most places the
wall is ten feet high, width at the bottom
fifteen feet, at the top five. Hs3'a t' a'
Another fact is the aze of the stones used
in its construction; the whole Is of stone,
varying in weight from three tons down to
one hundred pounds. A-ai
There is an abundance of stone in Weight
county; but surrounding the lake, to the
extent of five and ten miles, there are none.
No one can form an idea as to the means
employed to bring them to the spot, or who
constructed it. i4h't1el Y
Around the entire lake is a belt of wood
land, halfa mile in width, composed Of oak;
with this exception the country is a rolling
prairie. The trees, therefore, must have
been placed there at the time Of building
the wall ..@a aal taI1 .V
In the spring of 1855 there was a great
storm, and the ice on the lake broke the
wall in several places, and the farmers in
that vicinity were obliged to repair the
damages to prevent inundation. The lake
occupies a ground surface of 1900 acres,
depth of water as great as 25 feet. The
water is clear and cold, soil sandy and
loamy.
1t is singular that no one has been able to
ascertain where the water comes from, and
where it goes to, yet 1T always remains clear
and fresh.

WHEN AND WHERE DOES THE DAY Be
oINP-Aswe travel eastward the day begins
earlier: near the equator starlight appears an
hour. earlier for each thousand miles going
east. When it is sunrise in New York, the
people of Europe have had sunlight for many
hours, and the Californians are still in their
beds dreaming. Evidently the day has first
beginning, and at the eastward. But how
far and whereH What are the people who
first see the light of the Monday morningP
1t is the sun which brings the day; where
does he first bring Monday If we could
travel with him we might find out Let us
suppose the case. We will take an early
start: at sunrise on Sunday morning, with
the sun just at the point of peeping over the
horizon behind us, we travel westward. AS
we go, the people give us Sunday greet

The TRUE LITR.-The mere lease Of years is
not life. To eat, and drink, and sleep; to be
exposed to darkness aud the light; to pace
round the mill Of habit, and turn the wheel Of
wealth; to make ressOn our book-kespsr, and
turn into an implement Of trade-ths is not life.
In all this but poor fraction Of the conscious.
ness Of humanity is awakened. and the sancti-
ties still slumber which make it worth most
while living. knowledge. truth, love, beauty,
faith, alone can give vitality to the mechanism o.
existence; the laugh of mirih which vbrates
through the heart; the tears that freshen the
dry waste within; the music that brings child
hood back the prayer that calls the future !;
the doubt which makes us meditate the death
