..Fes,s,ep. In the san d.. or Time /"

Everybody knows Longfellow's poem,
from which the above is the most cele-
brated line. Everybody does not know,
however, that LongfelIow stole the
thought. The First Napoleon, when
writing OH the subject of the poor laws
to his Minister Of the Interior, said: at
is melancholy to see time passing away
without being put to its full value.
Surely in matter of this kind we
should endeavor to do something, that
we may see that we have lived; that we
have not lived in vain; that We may
leave some impress of ourselves on the
sands of time"

and safe conveyance TO the mining regions.
During tho last season, for example. more
than half Of the Seventh Cavalry (Crster's)
decamped with their horses, arms, and
accoutrements, and probably made their
way to the gold regions Of Colorado and
Montana. A Desperate, who wants to
reach the diggings, has only to enroll him.
