VIE LAND.

There's a beautiful land by the Spoiler un-
trOd,
1t is lighted alone by the presence Of God,
Whose throne and whose temples are
It's crystalline streams with %murmuring
Meander through valleys so green,
And its NJ fountains of jasper are or'gnt In
OF a splendor no mortal hath seen.
And throngs of singers, with %juhilant
Make the air with their melodies rife;
And one known on earth as the Angel of
. shines here as the Angel of Life!
An infinite tenderness beams from his
On his brow is an infinite cal N
And his voice as it thrills Through the
depths of the skies,
Is as sweet as the Seraphim's psalm.
Through the amaranth groves of the Beau
Walk The souls who are faithful In this;
And their fOreheadS, StaI-crowned, by Inc
zephyrS are famed,
That evermore murmnr OF bliss.
They taste the rich fruitage that hangs
And breathe the Sweet ID Of flowers,
More fragrant than ever was kissed by the
In Araby's Ioveliest bowers.
Old prophets, whose words were a spirit
= flame,
Blazing out DER the darkness of Time;
And martyrs whose courage no fortunes
could tame.
Nor turn from their purpose sublime;
And saints and confessors, a numberlesS
throng
Who were loyal to Truth and to Right,
And left, as they walked through the
arknes of Wrong,
Their footprints encircled with light.
And the dear little children, who went to
their rest
Ere their lives had been sullied by sin,
While the Angel of MO.n1ng still tarried a
gGeSt,
Their spirits pure temple within;
All are there-all are therein the Beauti-
full Land;
The land by the Spoiler untrod.
And their foreheads, star-crowned, ~ the
zephyrs are famed,
That blows from the Gardens of God!

There are hundreds of large, well -watered stock

one thousand dollars more than if they not

fore. for the great Agricultural Interest OF the
country that the farmers of the northwest should
be made aware of the fact that all the high and
dry praries of the country. by the use of this
cheap and simple device, can be made good stock
farms. and really more valuable than these pos
sessng these natural advantages for water, for
there is no waste land. and the water can he pro.
vded directly at the points desired, in farm yards
and pastures.
Where is the farmer, then, that after knowing
be can thus increase the real value of his farm
from $500 to 81 ,000. will be content 10 make n
drudge of himself or employees by pumping wa
ter for stock?
After ten years experience in building and
erecting many hundreds of these machines, and
extensive acquaintance with the various attempts
made within the last thirty years to construct n
self-regulating Wind Machine, we most fully be-
lieve that nothing has ever been otfeied 10 the
public equal to Halladay's Improved Mill.
They are simple IN their construction that
any common joiner can erect then aud attach a
common farm yard pump. They ean be stopped
instantly by means of lever on the upright tim

that a float viii stop the Mill when tho tank is

labored prating of Mr.. Brown about the politi-
cal candidate, which constitutes one of the two
great burdens Of his appeal. Ia ridiou-
lously shallow. While upon this subject
of politically, we perhaps ought to alludo 70
the writer's affirmed concurrence in the doc
trine Of the Democratic programme, ''that a
wise, upright, and fearless judiciary ia TIA
great bulwark of public safety and individual
rights" We need only remark that II the via.
dom, uprightness, and fearlessness implied in
this Democratic programme are the same kind
as are praotised by the Democratic judiciary of
New York city, and of some other places even
less Democratic, all honest Republicans prefer
not to concur in this cardinal Democratic doO-
trine. In comparing the intellectually Of the
candidates, the writer is equally unfortunate.
He reasons thus:-The Republican candidate IL
forty-six years of age, and the Democratic
candidate fifty five; therefore the latter is in
comparably the superior in intellectually.
This is the veritable reasoning of a lawyer who
includes the Judiciary in the classes of per-
sons to whom he oomplaoently appeals.
The historical annals of ancient and modern
times all attest that the majority of
the massive intellects of the world
have matured at the age of forty-fvs.
Not only are the mental faculties Of
the Hon. Henry w. Williams matured and
in full vigor, but they have been vigorously
disciplined by a varied judicial experience Of
no ordinary character during the sixteen years
that he sat upon the bench of the District
Court OF Allegheny county. His decisions
have reflected eminent legal attainments and
even when appealed from they have generally
been affirmed by the Superior Court, with
marked expressions of approval-the supe-
rior Judges not unfrequently being salts
fed to affirm the judgment solely for
the reasons expressed by the Judge
below. 1t is generally conceded that
our candidate possesses rare analytical
! and inductive powers of mind. Such an
intellect must necessarily be endowed
with large and liberal comprehensiveness,
which Sees all round and all through every
subject, and which therefore studies and
judges everything in all its relationship very
quality of mind that is prominently needed
in Supreme Judge. For him, then we con-
fdently bespeak the votes of our citizens on
the ground of legal ability and tried
! patriotism,
