on its ways to the sea the mountain lifts its
head among the clouds, and casts its frown-
ing shadows in the vale below the vale
echoes to the songs of its birds, the hum of
human voices, the lowing of herds; while
here and there is the busy town with its ac-
tive life, its ceaseless connection, its impetuous
struggles, its attractive homes, and the spires
of its churches pointing toward heaven. The
bell rings and the picture passes away from
our sight to be seen no more. Thus it is with
human life. 1t is an association of objects,
interests, attractions, and beauties, which
bursts upon our sight, perform their mission
and accomplish their purposes, and are then
lost to sight. The bell tolls, the canvas
moves, the lights are put out, the vision is
lost in darkness, silence reigns, the curtain
drops, and all is ended in the sleep, the for
getfulness, and the insensibility of the grave.

New-York tribune., 1872-10-07
MR. BLAINES "ADVERTLSING.p

Speaker Blaine is anxious to have his rail-
road complications kept before the public. In
q late speech at Cincinnati he is reported as
saying that he would take pleasure in adver-
tising the charges. We will take pleasure in
helping him.
Mr. James G.. Blaine, formerly a school
teacher in Pennsylvania, whence he re-
moved to Maine under circumstances which
need not now be mentioned, became
an editor in the State of his adop-
ton, and next member in the State Legisla-
ture. In no one of these vocations had he
made much more than comfortable liveli-
hood when, in 1862, he was elected to Con-
gress. The pay of that Office was then, we be-
licve, three thousand dollars per year. 1t has
since been increased, but there has been no
time when Mr.. Blaines legitimate income was
likely to prove much more than enough for
his style of living. Yet in 1862 he was a poor
man ON his salary as Congressman he has
come, in 1872, to be reckoned by his friends
and neighbors in Augusta millionaire.
Mr.. Oakes Ames, Massachusetts millionaire,
manufacturer, railroad contractor, Congress
man, and member of the Railroad Committee
of the House, has written three private letters
to a fellow member of the Credit Mobilier,
which have been published and are admitted
to be genuine. In those letters, he explains
to his business associates what he has done and
is doing with a certain amount of the stock
of their Company. He says he is placing it in
Washington, where it will do most good, men
lions the States Gncluding Delaware and
Maine) among whose representatives he is
dividing it, and alludes to Senator Bay
ard of Delaware as gentleman for whom
stock had been reserved, but whom
he had not yet seen. Mr.. Bayard
thereupon publishes letter written by him at
the time, in acknowledgment of the offer of
stock, and explaining that he could not take
it unless ne paid for it, and wasl sure it
would not become the subject of legislation.
Col. McComb of Delaware was the business
associate to whom Mr.. Ames had written. He
row swears that Mr.. Amos gave him verbally
a list (Which he Immediately noted down on
tne back ol one oI hir. Alles iot.ors) OK tne
Congressman among whom the stock had
