A star Light Might.

Perhaps . starlight night is the greatest
instrument that 10 permitted, otherwise
than in revolution, to address mankind.
We now know that, 10 contemplating those
heavens, we are looking at an historical
scene which makes all other histories trivial
and transitory. The speck Of light which
We call star, is an smanation which proceed
cd from its origin thousands Of years ago
perhaps, and may not in asy manner repre-
sent the state Of the star at the present day.
Then, again, It 10 not a. II We were reading
the history Of any one past period; but we
are reading the commingled history Of in
numerable ages, widely deistant from each
other. If men thoroughly entered into
the spirit Of this strange weird scene it
wonld be the grea test cnre for ambition,
vanity aud avarics that has ever been de-
vised. I.I.l.
The idea 10 very difficult to realize or to
express. To compare small things with
great this illustration may be used. 1t is
as II . man Of the present day were to see
(not to read about, but to see) Lord George
Gordon's riots, Louis the Fourteenth's con-
quest Of Flanders, Charlenagns's. slaughter

An argument for coal freight can be seen
in the transportation Of wheat from the vi.
einity Of Dubuque. 1t takes the value Of
one bushel of wheat to carry another bushel
TO market. and from points further West or
further from water communication the cost
is OF course proportionsteiy greater. This
demonstrates two things: First, tho impor.
tance Of ample transportation facilities OF
the cheapest kind; and second, the vast ad-
vantage Of manufactures in ereating home
market. If Iowa had diversifed industry,
creating home demand for ber agricnltu.
rsl products, every bashel of wheat she
raises would be worth Is much a. two bush
elsare now. She wsuld also save tho cost
Of transportation on these manufactured
products which she now imports flom Europe
or the East. This double saving on trans
