Passing AWay.

An exchange beautifully treats this subject
as follows: II is astonishing with what ra-
pidity time passes g ~ay /; how tie days. the
weeks, months. ana the years roll round,
carrying with them the lie. tue beauty aud
the hopes OF tLe WoT!G iutO :. vast and uu-
known future. Il seems but short time,
indeed, since wo all felt aud enjoyed the
springs and buoyancy of youth, the delight
OF home, the Influences of l,aternal love. the
society and counsel oi friends, W ho now sleep
in the grave and yet some Of us are aged
ard the majority have attained to mature
manhood. The yoUng, of the present gene
ration, are growing up around US. bat ia
our youth We knew them not. While We
have been passing on, III The direction oi the
grave, they have sprung up TO occupy our
places and follow rapidiy ia the rear. Be
fore Us we see the aged tottering along iu
their feebleneSs and leaning upon their
slaves, behind us Is the youth flushed with
promises and the infant prattliug in IT'S moth
er'g arms. That circle has been kept ~,
unbrcken. until time is list in eternity. Our
life is moving panorama-the pictures on
the canvass pass before our eyes, delightiug
US for a moment, but each containing a SOL
emn lesson aud warning. He Is but an ia
different observer who does not study hin,-
self. There Is tne ocean, the lake, the i've 9,
tie mountain, and the vale; the one sWens
in its majestic grandeur aud murmurs It's de-
| fant tones, which are heard upon>either
| shore; the other rests hike calm mirror, .Ie-
/ hectng tho light of the millions of stars that
/ sparkle in the blue conoave; the river dashes
on its way 10 the sea the mountain lifts It's
/ head among the clouds and casts its fruw {. .
/ ing shadows into the vale below; the Va u
/ echoes Ia the songs of its birds, the hum. of
! human voices. tho lowing Of herds. whiis
/ here and there Is the busy town. with its
/ active life, its ceaseesi commotious, its in
/ petuous struggles, its attractive homes, aad
the spires of its churches pointing toward
heaven. The bell rings, and the picturs
passes away from our sight to be seen 40
more. Thus it is with human life. 1t is Al.
association of objects. interests, attractions
and beauties which bust upon our sight, per
form their mission, and accomplish their puT-
poses, and are then lost to sight. The bell
tolls, the canvass moves, the lights are put
oct. the vision is lost ia darkness, silence
reigns, the curtain drops and al is ended IL
the sleep, the forgetfulness and the ihscnsi-
bility of the grave.

We think that one cannot fully CON-
prehend the immensely of the sheet of
water and the sublmity of the scene, un-
til he can gaze upward as we did. This
peint is the cave of the Winds. The
Shoshonee Falls, AS whole, will compare
favorably with Niagara. Those OF our
party who have seen both places pro-
nounce the former superior in many re-
spects In beauty and miIdnees of scenery,
the Shoshonee cannot be surpassed. Nj
agara excels in magnitude only.
