/ The body is to die. No one who passes
the charmed boundary comes back to
tell. The Imagination visits the land Of
shadOws-sent out from some window Of
the soul over life's restless waters-but
wings its way wearily back without a
live leaf in its beak, as a token Of emerg-
ing life beyond the closely bending
horizon. The great sun nlmes and goes
I'm the heavens, yet breathes no secret of
the etherial wilderness. The crescent
moon cleRves her nightly passage
across the upper deep, but tosses
overheard no signals. The senti-
nal stars challenge each other as they
walk their nightly rounds, but we catch
no SYLLABLE OF their couutersign which
eives massage 10 the heavenly camp. Be
tween tins and the other life there is q
sreat gulf fixed, across which neither
feet nor eye can travel. The gentle
friend whose eyes we closed in their last
-Ieen long years ago, died with rapture
in her wonder stricken eyes, smile OF
ipeffable 10y upon her lips, and hands
folded over q triumphant heart; but
her lips were past speech, and inti-
mated nothing Of the vision that en-.
thFallsd her,

Letter from a Son Of Gen Albert sydney
TohnErnnR.


The following letter, just received from
a son Of Gen. Albert Sydney Johnston,
by the mayor Of New Orleans, in rela-
ton 10 the contemplated removal Of his
fathers remains 10 tn cir final resting
place in Texas, win be read with interest
and pleasure
HIS Honor John T. Monroe, Mayor ~ New
AiJ Dear Sir-Although nog officially
apprised OF the arrangements for the re-
n.oval Of the remains Of my father, Gen.
Albert Sydney Johnston, from New Or
leans TO Texas, yet / had seen in the pub
lie prints that January 18th was the day
fixed for that purpose, and, moved by a
sentiment which you can appreciate, 70
.Oin in this last tribute Of respfst to his
memory, 1 had determined 70 Ne in New
Orleans at that time. Severe indisposi-
ton, with lnulCdtIOus or PneuIuuuia aud
bronchitis, compel me, in Difference to
the advice OF my physician, to torego
this smOurnful duty, and ! write TO ap-
price YOU Of this fact, that my absence
mav In no wise be miscOnstTued.
/ desire, also, on my own behalf, and
in the name of the family and friends Of
my father, 10 return you our heartfelt
thanks for the pious care which has
through these weary years afforded 10
his mortal body the rites OF sepulture,
while detained on its pilgrimage 10 its
final resting place, in the state ne loved
so well. 1t has been a consolation that
the friendly hands Of compatriots were
permitted to deck his tomb, and that his
ashes repOsed among the sacred remains
Of your family. Permit me 10 say that
the offices 70 the dead which you and
your family and your city have rendered
in the spirit OF brotherhood and love will
ever be gratefully remembered, and form
link which years win not break nor
weaken.
! am, my dear sir, very truly and re-
spectfully, your friend'and servant,

ICE BOATS.

We find in the New York Tribune an
interesting account Of the ice boats on
the Hudson river. The season for their
use is Just beginning. The finest ice
boats in the world are at present owned
by the POughkeepSie ice bOat association,
whose fleet now numbers ten OF these
vessels. The quickest time on record IN
the world was made last winter by one
of these bOats-the Snow Elake-and
was nine miles in eight minutes, the
wind being on the beam, Ice boats,
which have only becOmecommon within
q few wears, cost from SIS to $500. The
most expensive are OF course elabOrately
fitted up.
"The hull Of an ice boat is triangular
in shape, the deck being only four or
five inches from the surface of the ice.
Under the forward part are two station
airy runners, the wider part Of the trian-
gle being the bow. Under the stern IS
movable runner called the rudder. The
balance Of the vessel is rugged exactly
like a sloOp, except that wire rigging is
brought into reQuisitiOn. All well regu-
lated ice boats have two sets Of runners,
one for smooth and the other for rough
ice. The standing rigging Of the Snow
Flake is made of charcoal wire. The
shoes on the runners average three feet
in length, with twelve or thirteen inches
Into this gets the adventurous voy-
ager, clothed as for journey in the Arc
Z" You will find his feet encssed in
heavy boots and the boots eucased In
fur-Ined moccasins. He will have on
heavy wooden under clothing, heavy
pantaloons and vest, the latter covered
.-I@
comes his short pilot cloth coat, and
over all the inevitable long oyercoat.
His ears will be covered with the patent
mufIers, and on his head will rest a
close-rigged skull cap, with just enough
front-piece to call it such. Add 10 the
above comforts two huge buffalo robes,
one TO lie down on and the other TO cover
himself up with, and the sailing master
of the ice boat is ready for tiiiymile
scud to the wjndward."
A sudden flaw of wind sends these
swift-winged craft seudding along on one
runner, and for the time the helmsman's
ruddeT is Of course useless, bpfzif prop
erIv ballasted no accident hSr3peDs. If
the ice is smooth an overturu results in
sending the passen gers shooting out forty
or fifty feet over the ice, and heavily clad
As they are no great harm is done. An
accident of this kind where the ice was
rough or jagged would be more serious.
An account in a European paper, of ice,
boats on the Danube, remarks, however, I
that in consequence of the multitudinous
perfls, the crews Of some boats forbid the
pr, sence Of married men, either IS pas
seugers or able-bodied nayigatOrs.

The legislature has been in session now
for more than a week, and yet, strange
as it may seem, there has not been a sim
Gle speech made in either house. We
have seen 8 good many legislative as
semblies, in Kentucky and elsewhere
have witnessed the proceedings Of many
deliberative bodies; but We have never
seen any in which there was as little
disposition for speech making as in the
present legislature of Kentucky. This
does not proceed from the fact Of an ab-
scence Of speaking ability, for in the two
houses there are a number of the ablest
speakers in the state. There seems to
be, however, a universal disposition upon
the part Of the members to address them
selves to the business before them, and
not to consume time in discussions,
which, as a general thing, are productive

exists great diversity of opinion, are in

less from this fact, that results the uni

the members, personally. We have yet
to hear Of the first unpleasant feeling be-
tween any two members Of the present
legislature. There is total absence of
cr. .miuatiOn and recrimination, which
naturally and Inevitably grow out OF
