THE SEA-LIMTTs.
ID. G, ROSsErrI


Consider the seas listless chime:
Times self it is, made audible
The murmur Of the earth's own shall
Secret continuance sublime
Is the seRh end: one sight NAV mass
No furlong further. Since time was.
This sound hath told the lapse Of time.
No quiet, which is death's,-it hath
The mournfulness Of ancient life
Enduring always at dull strife.
As the worlds heart of REST ana wrath
Its painful pulse is in the sands.
lost utterly, the whole sky stands,
NsrSy and not known, along its path.
Listen alone beside the se..
Listen alone among the woods.
Those voices of twin solitudes
snail nave one sound alike to thee.
hark where the murmurs of thronoed mel
ourge ana shrink back and surge again.
Gun the one voice Of wave and tree.
Gather shell from the strown beach
And Ana listen at its lips: they sigh
me same desire and mystery,
Inc echo of the whole seas speech.
And all mankind is thus at heart
Not anything but what thou art:
And Earth, Sea, Man, are all in each.

wherever he could be dragged; but he
compelled a verdict of character at the
hands of the very cock-sparrow who had
DETAINED him. Then shaking the dust
of Washington from his feet, he retu1n-

Horace till the beauty Of life and career

To that great new State he became de-

Gas

Gas was discovered in 1879, but it
was only devoted to illuminating pur-
poses i'll 1892; it was first permanently
used for illumination at Manchester in
1905; two years afterwards gas was in
troduced into one of the streets in Lon
don: from that time it's use has been ex-
tended throughout the world. What
we owe to the services of this valuable
invention would be long tale to tell;
but what if gas is to be superseded by
something at once more intrinsically
valuable, and yet, strange to say. cheap,
er? There is probability of this at all
events. A French chemist, it is said,
has discovered new light as superior
to gas as gas is to oil. The new oxyhdric
light has been most successfully ex-
hibited at the Crystal Palace, London,
and the new light is so powerful that it
actually causes flame from gas to cast a
shadow. The oxyhydric light is white,
clear and healthy

America to be the Workshop Of the
World

Recent cable dispathes convey the in
telligence that the price of coal is adj
vancing in England, and that every
thing connected with the coal trade is
higher" In consequence, the ocean
steamers have raised their fares, and
coal is beginning to be imported from
Belgium. The price of fuel, so indis-
pensible to the giant industries of that
busy island, is said to have doubled
during the last year.
The cost of labor in the same country
has also considerably increased within
the same period, as II result of the sue
cessful nine-hour movement. English
manufacturers must, of course, be pro-
portionately advancing in price, and
their power to compete iniuriOusly with
the products of our American mills and
workshops correspondingly lessened.
Little doubt remains that the founda-
ton of England s superiority as manu-
featuring country are gradually slipping
away. The best coal fields have been
worked down almost to the limit of
profit, and the supply, if not already
declining, is incapable of further expan-
sion. while the continual extension of
factories and furnaces is increasing the
demand at rapid rate. The English
iron-makers have long been importing
ores from the Continent, and now it be-
comes necessary to exc out their supply
of fuel by purchasing from Belgium.
Their labor is no longer so cheap as it
once was.
The time is not far distant when the
workshops of the world will be trans
ferred to the United States, where not
only fuel and iron ores exist in ex-
haustless quantities, but the greatest
cotton fields are found, and in nearly
every great staple raw material abounds.

-Endeavor to do your work quietly.
Anxiety and over-action are always the
cause of illness and restlessness. We
must use our judgment to control our
excitement, or our bodily strength will
break down. We must remember that
our own battle is to be won by a strength
not our Own. 1t is battle that does
not depend upon the swift nor the

all OF the models submitted for the Farragut

be dlherence OF opinion Ia but natural, bat
that majority OF opinions should be pronounced
against the best statue seems strange enough.
The model Of DR.. stone Is In itself good work,
and the noble artist, dlslaining every method Of
appeal but that furnished by his work alone,
stands alOOf from intrigue and let's the statue
the grandly heroic emblem Of the great naval
chleftaln, plead Its own cause; and that perfect
work asks but the verdict Of artists-Of men
who, like stone, scOTn To degrade the sanctlty OF
art by placing the emanatiOns Of genius upon

Is a grand conception-grandly carried into

the dln OF battle he grasped the situation, and
with nrm, undoubting nlein, knew himself Its
master. In suspended motion-eyeTy muscle,

ranks recognize the perfect naturalness OF the
