The Mississippi Filling Up.

The bed Of the Mississippi river
seems to be filing up at rate which
threatens, in the course OF time, to Sc
riously affect navigation during the dry
season. This year at ST. Louis, while
the surface of the water has been four
feet and one inch above the lowest stage
Of water attained by the river in 1868,
there was at the same time only about
five inches difference in the depth of
the channel between these years, show.
ing that the bottom Of the river must
be three or four inches higher than in
1868. So in 1856 the bed of the river
was found to be two feet and three
inches higher than it was ten years pre-
vious. 1t is thought that tough clay
particles are brought down by tributary
streams from the cultivated fields of
the northwest and deposited in the
channel, and that there, forming with
the sand concrete mass, adhere to the
bottom instead of being secured out by
the annual freshet, as is the case with
unmixed sand. 1t is reasonable to sup.
pose, too, that the volume of water
| flowing into the river will gradually de-
crease as the country is opened up to
cultivation, as such has been the case
with other rivers flowing through Guilt
waited districts. The Danube, Though
large river, is untitled for purposes OF
commercial intercourse. If we look
nearer home, we find that the destruc
ton of the forests and the cultivation
OF the adjacent country, are having the
effect of drying up the Connecticut;
very gradually, to be sure, but still
none the less effectually. Many of its
tributaries, which formerly contributed
large volumes of water, the twelve
months through, are now dry for three
fourths of the year.
Mrs. MCFARLAND RICHARDSON says of
her last husband: Many men and wo-
men have clasped my hand to say
through tears, lie was the best friend
| ever had Many, with lips trembling
with emotion, have said to me, He
helped me when | was discouraged. |
owe more than can say to his encour-
aging word and his friendly aid Many
men and women with tongue and pen
have said, | feel myself better, more
loving to man, more trustiul to God, for
having known this man.

that there are cases where men hold

Of long life, and bcQueath them to
their Successors. But this is the pith of
this grand text. that there is no escap-
inc the judgments Of God on riches got

are sure and irIcycrsiblc. This truth is
summed mp by Jeremiah i'll the terse
form of Il proverb it is carried i'll that

'fhe following is an extract from i
-cllnon 10y Rev. Mr.. Gage of Hartford,
and is applicable to the times:
As the partridge stitch eggs and hatchcth

shall leave them in the midst of his DAYS and Al his
,ud shall he a fool. "-Jey. Il .
The sermon opened with the follow
my introduction:
In one Of the southern towns III this
state | saw, not many days ago, four
spacious and sumptuous houses, stand
ing near together, not separated by even
the foi1nality of fence, and built, it
was currently reported, by funds taken
hy fraud from the treasury Of New orli
city. The owners of these houses were
not there: they were wandering up and
down the New Continent, OF on their
way to foreign lands. The names of
newspaper in the land, i'll connection
with the New York populations, and
we're, of course. on every ones tongue
III the town where they lived, and the
currents of their evil influence flowed in
stream that one could almost see with
the natural eye. II seemed strange to
I've taken into the daily haunts of Wood
ward, Keyser, Ingcrsoll and Garvev,
and to deal with these men not in the
columns Of the newspapers, but i'll the
very places which they cOntaminate.
At the dinner table of friend. | heard
the incident which led me to the text
of this sermon. Not many weeks ago
4 gentleman of Norwalk was approach
cd by one of the emmissaries of the
New York ring, and told that he might
tie rich just as well rs not, and that he
was It fool for not improving his oppor-
tunities. The man who was approach
ed TUNED to him who had the bride in
his hand and happily answered Is there
not 4 verse somewhere i'll Scriptures,
AS the partridge stitch on eggs and
hatcheth them not, so he that getteth
riches and not by right, shall leave
them in the midst Of his days, and at
his end shall be fool 2 The other
was silent. But the question has been
answered within the past few days, and
the judgment of God has already begun
TO fall upon the ringleadels of sin in
that town and in the neighboring city.
The great mistake of bad men in all
ages, is that they try TO circumvent
God. They seem to be fortunate for a
time, and, growing daring and self-con-
ldent, they pave the way broad and
line for that destruction which. in some
form or other, is sure to come at last.

Shall pay Miss Muffet court,
While Besnstalk Jack rolls on his back
With laughing at the sport.
Old WoudrOus Wise. with blinded eyes,
Shall mash Eriss KringIe's cOrG;
And LATHE Boy Blue, huIIaSaIOO,
Shall waken with his hUrD.
Come out, come out, with sons aud shout
Obey the GTaudame's call;
To her bright eyes and golden skies
We owe allegiance ali.
The gems she wears distil no tears,
Her hOw'rets SloOm for aye,
Her castle walls and fairy halls
Will never pass away
Like US, who back DER life's dull track
One glance at Lapland throw,
To hOurs Of youth, of love and truth,
We never more may know.
