WOODEN CAR WHEEIS.-The Hudson River
Railroad Company has recently placed twelve
of the ManSell wood-car wheels on their draw
ing-room car. These wheels cost treble the
price of ordinary cast-iron wheels, but this Is re-
glrded as Of little consequence compared with
the advantages gained by their use. They ride
smoothly making conversation, reading, and
even writing not only possible, but an easy
task on the cars. They are made OF thorough
ly seasoned elm or teak, with steel tires; are
very durable, only one accident having ever oc
Cured to one of them, and that through the
carelesSness of workman and will wear by
reason of their elasticity and durability, over
four hundred thousand miles of railway, while
the average use of the ordinary iron wheel is
but fifty thousand miles, after which it is neceS-
sary to break it up.
1t is also asserted that this wheel is so con-
structed that it is impossible for the tire to be-
come displaced, and that the wear to the track
is much less than by the cast wheel, which OF
itself would make an important saving.
The Mansell wheel is used on the Metropo-
Titan Underground Railway in London, and
there, were the stoppages and starting of the
trains are very sudden and consequently ex-
tremey trying, no accident has yet occurred with
them.
If this wheel proves to have all the merits
claimed for it, it will, we hear, be generally
adopted on the Hudson River Road. The in
creased first cost of these wheels over the iron
wheels should not prevent railroad corporations
| from adopting them if it is proved by trial that
with them human life is made more safe. Then
greater durability and the saving of wear and
| tear of track will, it is believed, render these
wheels in the end much the cheapest.

has only talked about.
As for my other nephew, Peter Finch, he
views all things in so sagiciOus and selfish a
way, and is SO certain to get on in life, that
should only insult him by offering any aid
which he does not require, yet from his affec-
admiration for his mental acuteness, venture
to hope that he will accept bequest of five
hundred pounds towards the completion of his
extensive library of law books
How Peter Finch stormed and called names
how John Meade broke into 1elirium of
joy---how Mary Sutton cried first, and then
cried and laughed together-all these matters

Peter Finch has taken to discounting bills, and
bringing actions on them, and drives about in

what skill in the arts, what contributions to
poetry, philosophy, or history? what light to

at all in these departments, but arc constantly
imparting without having any returns. This
one single fact shows what must be the Ulti-
mate issue of this great conflict among men
between light and darkness, between truth and
error, between knowledge and ignorance.
The Rev. DIR. Harris then made an interest
ing and lucid statement Of the financial condi-
ton of the Society
an eloquent address, his theme being the law
of diffusion in its bearing upon the great mis-
siOnary enterprise.
Judge Reynolds of Brooklyn, was the next
speaker, who discussed the principle of Christ
ian BenevOlcnce as the ground work of civil
zatiOn. lie regarded the Missionary Society
as wise and necessary means for the advance
ment Of civilization.
| Rev. DIR. Hare, of New York city, made the
closing speech. lie dwclt at length upon God
dearest purpose, the redemption of all meT
and that, through all the plans Of the Deity
In creation, providence and grace, this purpose
was kept III vain.

over by Bishop James and remarks were made
by DIR. Harris, Rev. &. ID. FoSs, Hon. r. Stock

AN Eloquent PAssAGE.-Irohably of all
the beautiful and eloquent passages ever writ
ten BY the inimitablc George d. Prentice, the
following is the finest:
. 1T caunot be that earth is a mans only
abiding place. It cannot be that cur life is u
bubble cast by eternity to float moment upon
its waves and sink into noth;ngncsS. Else why
lsitthat the high and glorious aspirations which
leap like angels from the temple of our hearts
are forever wandering un,atisfed? Why is it
that the rainbow and cloud come over us With
beauty that is not Of earth, and then pass off
to leave Us to muse on their loveincss? Why
is it that the stars which hold their festival
around the midnight thrGue arc set above the
grasp Of our limited faculties, forever 1nocking
US with their unapproaohable glory? And,
finally, why is it that bright forms of human
beauty are presented to our view and taken
from US, leaving the thousand streams of our
affection to flow back in an a. pine torrent upon
our hearts? There is realm where the rain
bow never fades where the stars will be spread
out before us Ike the islands that slum-
Der on the ocean, and where the beautiful be-
ingS which pass before Us ike shadows, will
stay forever in our presence.

WHY HIS FACE WAS UNcLEAN.-We heard
an ancclotc Of schoolboy the other day,
which illustrates the honesty Of youth.
The little fellow had dirty face, and his
teacher told him to 80 ana wash it,
lie went cut and stayed for a few minutes,
and then came back with the lower half of his
countenancc toleraLly clean, and the upper half
wet and dirty.
Johnny said the teacher, why did you
not wash your face?"
= dd wash it, said johnny.
" Why did you not wipe it, then, all over ?"
" | did wipe itas high as my shirt tail would
reach!' was Johnny conclusive reply.
