TIE UNFINISHED PRAYER.

"Now lay Say Il. darling:
LAY me-" lispcd the tiny lips
or my daughter. knccling, bending,
Ger her folded finger tips.
"Down to sleep ITO sleep" she murmurcd
And the curly head dropped low;
~ pray the Lord" gently added,
"YOu can say Il all, know"
"Pray the Lord the words came family,
Fainter still--"My soul to keep y"
Then the tired head fairly nodded,
And the child was fast asleep.
But the dewy eyes half opened,
When clasped her to my breast,
And the dear voice softly whispered,
"Mamma, God knows all the rest"
o. the trusting, sweet conAding
OF the child heart! Would that
Thus might trust my Heavenly Father,
He who hears my fccblest cry.

In the spring, on the 18th Of March, I
crossed the Rocky Mountains At what 10
called the Frenchman's PAss, wltiin about
fifteen miles of Helena City, finding about
two feet of snow on the summit There WAS
no snow in the valleys on either side, and
but little on the side hills. I passed the
range 10 days after at Mullan's Pass, and
found but little snow, the ground being bare
in many places.

NORTH PACIFIC RAILROAD
ROUTE.
NesC ana Practicable Route SMO-
QeSfeI.

| To tue EDrToR or Tine New NORTHWEST
Its now sixteen years since the first explo-
ration was began for the line of the location
Of Northern Pacific Railroad, and now
when one line across the continent is COM
pletc and the enterprise of the American
people is about to begin another on the
shortest and most feasible route between the
oceans, and reports announcing the preps-
ra,ions for reconnaissance by the enginecrs
Of location for the purpose of deciding upon
the lines TO be surveyed and more minutely
examined, take this method of calling at.
tcntion to line which has not yet been
examined and explored, which it is my be-
feasible location for railroad between the
Missouri and Columbia rivers. Engineer
+. N. johnson, in his last report 10 the
North Pacific Railroad Company, calls at
tention to line leading up Fish creek. on
the western side of Missoula county, and
thence down nc.of the water courses inter-
sccting the Bitter Root mountains, to the
Columbia. Recent explorations of miners
in the region referred to in what is known
as the Moose Creek Mining Camp, have de-
vcloped the cXis tcncc of low pass, the
lowest one yet discovered through this
range, which is situated ut the head of the
middle fork of Fish creek, about 4S miles
from the Bitter Root river. The grades Of
approach to this pass are rs easy or easier
than the grades OH the St. Regis dc Borgia,
which arc reported practicable by instrument
tai survey. On the western side. tho descent
is gradual down the valley of tributary of
the North Fork Of the Columbia river, which
will take the track within 4 distance Of ~
estimated the Bitter Root river
to the waters of the Clearwater river. The
distance, think, is under estimated, but l
give it rs told me. My informant has trav.
eled over the route, and having been upon
the Mullan survey, is well qualified to judge
of the comparative values Of the two passes,
and am well satisfied that line can be
constructed over this pass with fewer cngin-
ecring difficulties than have been overcome
iu the Sierra Neva'las; that will be 20 miles
shorter, and affording rem !rkablc facilities
fAr its construction. This region is heavily
timl'ered, is abundantly supplied with wafer
power, and a sidc-hill location will afford
every advantage for disposing Of the winter
SHOWS. Trusting that this communication
may succeed in calling the attention of the
exploring parties in the field to this point, l
am Yours, WALTER w. JOHNSON.

The ONO MARRrAaE LAw-CuRrous
PREDIcAMEST OF A. You've LADY.-The
Columbus (Ohio) Journal, of June 8, says !:
The Inconsistency Of tho law relating to
marriages, passed by the last Legislature,
.was illustrated yesterday. The law provides
that no young lady under 81 years Of age
shall marry without the consent Of her pa
rents or guardian. Yesterday among the
candidates for nlatrimony brought to the
notice Of the Probate Court BY application
for : license, was young lady 20 years Of
age. Both father and mother were dead.
She was ovsr 10 ycsrs Of age, and therefore
had no guardian, and the Court could %.
point none, because under tho laws Of the
State she IVES her own mistress. d Still the
law Of last winter says she can't masry.
