a little white headed man in the embrace OF his
wife, who had his head under her arm, while
with the other she was giving her little lord a
pounding. Wishing to put an end to the light,
out in loud voice, ''Halloa, here who keeps
this house," The husband, though much out

the above Wheel of which they are the sole agents
| in this State, as the best economizer of water
| known, and pledge themselves to furnish wheels

cheney the best overshot wheel in existence
Among the excellencies of this wheel may be

same percentage of power to the amount of water
used.
| 4th. 1t can never be frozen up or affected by
| frost in any way
| 9Th. 1t has given the highest effect due to the
head and amount of water used of any wheel
| record as tested by competent civil engineers.
9th. 1t is completely finished before leaving the
place OF manufacture, and adjusted for running,
| and enclosed in iron case, requiring only to
be coupled to the water wheel shaft.

The GRACE OF CHRISTI is lasting, as it
is abundant. 1t took its rise in the eternalages
that are gone; it entered the world as soon as
sin had made a way for it; it has ever since
been flowing ON like mighty river widening
and deepening as it goes, and will flow on as
long as there is mourner to be comforted or
sinner is be cleansed And in eternity the
stream of grace shall not be lost; it will be seen
in Heaven pure river of life, making glad
the city of our God," sea of salvation, an
ocean of blessedness.

The CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT.
Mr. Huntington offered resolution that the
amendment proposed to the Constitution Of the
United States by the Thirty ninth Congress- be
and the same is not ratified and that the Gov
ernor be requested to forward copy Of this
resolution to the Secretary of State of the Uni
ed States
The resolution was referred to inappropriate
committee
The Board of Immigration presented report
of their operations since the organization OF the
Board, stating that despite the publication Of
an address to Immigrants and the foreign cor
respondence opened, their efforts have led to
no practical result, owing to the competition
from other States whose active and industrious
efforts, including the appointment Of lmmigra-
ton Agents in Europe which steps have rem
dered such an appeal as ours almost useless,
and demand more vigorous efforts for the flu
ture on our part and for this purpose the Board
deem additional legislation necessary.
Accompanying this report was that Of Gen.
VIM I'll. Richardson, Commissioner OF lmml-
grafton, stating that the donations to the Board
had amounted to 800 and that loan of $500
had been effected In June last, a correspon-
dence was opened with the President of the
American Emigrant and Homestead Company
of New York, but had led to no practical re-
suits. In September last, a select colony Of
seven hundred Danes could have been settled
in Virginia if farms Of fifty and one hundred
acres could have been procured on reasonable
terms, but the negotiations for the purchase Of
said farms failed on account of the high prices
demanded for lands. This colony brought with
it $3.50, 900 in gold. The remainder of the re-
port is devoted to discussion Of the necessity
of obtaining white labor, the countries best a
dapted to the supply of our needs, the induce
ments which must be held out to attract immi
grafton, and other topics of interest connected
with the subject
