A BEAUTIFUL RKFLKCTIcN.-Prentic
rlOquently said: & | cannot believe that
earth is mans abiding place. X cannot
be that eur life is cast up by the ocean OF
eternity to float rpon its waves and
then sink into Re,hingness! Else, why is
1t that the glorious aspirations, which leap
like angles from the temple Of cur heart,
are forever, wandering about unsatisfied
Why is il that the rainbow and clouds
come OYER with a beauty that is not OF
earth, and then pass off and leave US lc
muse upon their favored loveliness? Why
is II that the stars who hold their festival
around the midnight throne, are set above
The grasp of our limited faculties, forever
knocking US with their uDapproachablt
glory? And finally, Why is it that bright
forms of human beauty are presented to
view and then taken from Us, leaving the
thousand streams of ou; affection to flow
back in Alpine torrents TO our hearts |
We are born Tor higher destiny thar
that Of earth; there is realm where the
rainbow never fades-where the stars vii
spread before US the islands that slumber
In the ocean-and where the beings that
pass before Us like shadows, will stay in
our presence forever"

Mr.. Caldwell, our late Minister

MFR. George l.. Vose. of Paris, has
emerged from he retirement in which he
has lived since his crusade against the
Grand Trunk Railway, and is now prepar-
ing n map oftie White Mountain district.
This has neverbeen done, and requires a
good deal of ltbor. Mr.. Vose says that
the line between New Hampshire and
Maine is ve.y crooked one, and that If
Strengthened. would change titles TO not
a few persons owning land on the borders
of the two Staes.- Portland AdUertiSer.
Could not tie Advertiser copy trivial
article of news without gratuitous fling
nj orthy nan? 1t is the lowest kind Of
journal fankryism, done, probably. to
obtain the favorable consideration Of Rail-
road officials, and get free pass over the
road. Mr.. Vose has not been in particu-
lar retirement lately. True, he has ceas.
ed his attacks on the G.. L. road. since its
managers haze shown disposition TO put
it in better condition, and the travelling
public on the line of the road appreciate
his efforts in accomplishing such result.
In conversation with Mr.. Vose. several
days ago, he remarked that he was not
aware how such u statement in relation
to the New Hampshire line got into the
papers. as he had never made it. He had
found the line to be crooked, but mostly
in the woods, in wild land, and he was
not aware that the Strengthening Of the
line would affect any ones title, or make
much difference in the value of property.
