INSECTS.


Ihess tiny loiterers on the barley's beard
And happy units Of numerous herd
OF Playfell0ws, the laughing summer brings
MOeking the sunshine on their giitterlng wing
How merrily they creep, and run, and fly
No KIN they bear to la5or's drudUery,
Smoothing the Yelvesi Of the pale hedEe-russ-,
And where they fly for dinner no one kEeus
The dew-drops feed them not they love the
Of noon, wh..5a sun ay briris them go .,l
All day they're PLAYING in their SUNDAY drszs
When night repOses they can do no less
Then to the heatb-beli's purple hood they fly.
And, ike to princes in their siuInber, lie
Secure from rain and dropping dews, and all
On siiken beds in rOony, painted hail.
So merrily they spend Their summer day,
Now in the c0rn-helds, Ne y the new-uiOwn has
One almost fancies that such happy things,
with colored hoods ard RI slly FURNISHED wing
And fairy folk ia splendid masquerade
Disguised, as If Of mortal folk afraid,
Keeping their joyous pralii1s mystery stlll,
Lest glaring day should c their secrets i'll.

Beyond the gardens shade,
In deserts drear and dim,
Two outcsst children strsyed

Together, girl and boy,
They wandered, ne'eF apart;
Each wrought to each annoy,
Yet each knew never joy
Save in the others heart.
BY her so oft deceived;
By him so sore oppressed;
They each the other CrieVed,
A Yet each Of each was best
Beloved, and still carcssed.
And she was IN his sight
Found fairest, still his prize,
His constant chief delight;
She raised to him her eyes
That led her not Alright.
And ever by his side
A patient huntrsss ran
Through forests dark and wide,
And stfll the woman's pride
And glory was the man.
When her he would despise,
She kept him captive bound
Forbidding her 20 rise,
By many cords and ties
She held him TO the ground.
At length, in stature grown,
He stands erect and free;
Yet stands he not alone,
For his beloved would be
Like him she loveth wise, like him sh

SO wins she her desire,
Yet stand they not apart
For as she deth aspire
He grows, nor stands she higher
Than her Beloved's heart.

The Fastest Rates of Speed upon Eng
hsh Railways.

The following gives the mean average
of speed attained on nine Of the princi-
pal railway lines having termini in Lon
don; Great Western, 81 miles per hour;
London, Brighton and South Coast,
45s miles; Great Northern, 453 miles /;
London, Chatham and Dover, at miles /;
Southeastern, 4Sf miles; Northwestern,
421 miles Midland, 41a miles South
western, 40a miles Great Eastern, 364
miles. General average on the nine
roads, 439 miles per hour. These aver
ages, arrived at by taking the speed on
different parts of each company's line,
are not applicable TO certain portions Of
the lines where express trains are nu-
merous and usually run faster. For ex-
ample, on the Great Northern line be-
tween London and PeterbOro', nearly
all the trains run at q speed Of over so
miles an hour, and an average for that
part of the line would therefore yield
a much higher figure than 45i miles an
hour. On the Great Western line trains
run from Paddingtan to Swindon, dis
tance of 774 miles, in one hour and AZ
minutes, or at the rate of 533 mileg per
hour. This is probably the fastest run
ming time indulged IN anywhere in the
kingdom Such speed, barring stop
pages, would bring Edinburgh within
u hours OF London, instead of the
present 81 hours, which, when FIRST In
troduced, was looked upon as marvel
GUS travelling. The Southern company
make a short run of 26l miles, from
Tunbridge TO Ashton, in thirty-one
minutes, rate of 514 miles per hour,
and the Great Northern runs from Lon
don to Peterboro', T6t miles, in an h0sr
and half, or at the rate of 81 miles an
hour. The average of the fastest speed
attained on the nine lines above men
toned is 47i miles per hour. The Exc
ter and West OF England express of the
Great Western company runs the entire
distance between London and Exeter.
1874 miles, in A hours, including three
stoppages, or about 46 miles an hour.
The Scotch express of the Great North
ern company performs the journey be
tween London and Edinburgh, a dis
tance of 400 miles, IN 81 hours, includ-
ing six stoppages of some duration, an
average of 40 miles an hour. The Lon-
don and Northwestern company's /" linn
tied mail" also travels from London to
Glasgow, distance of 404 miles, in 10
hours and % minutes, an average of 80
miles An hour. The examples of runs
of so miles and upward without stop
ping are numerous. The Continental
trains of the London, Chatham and
Dover line run from Herne Hill 10
Dover, "a miles, without stopping, and
the Southeastern between Cannon street
and Dover, 75E miles. The Great
Western trains run from Paddington to
Swindon, 77s miles, without stopping,
and the Great Northern from London To
Peterboro', and from GraRtham 10 York,
76s and S4i miles respectively, while
the London and Northwestern COM
psny's Irish mails ran from Chester t.
Holyhead, distance Of s54 miles, oo-
cupyirg two hours and seven minutes,
without stopping. The latter is the
longest run without stoppages recorded.

Christianity the religion Of the state
the religion Of national education. This
common Christianity was. in fact. the
religion Of the Bible-a religion not in
corporated in creeds and catechisms. 1t
might have pleased Providence that
there should be no means OF teaching
religion except through formularies
but as a matter of fact it was not so,
for we had the Bible, which was the
very exponent of common Christianity,
and the Bible was an object OF rever-
ence to all Christian churches, and TO
the greatest men Of all sects ami creeds.
Therefore Il did this society the highest
possible credit to base their religious
edueation simply on this book-it gave
the society the creates, possible solidity
and permanence for the future. This
common Christianity was the religion
which this society had boldly IN times
past set forward 70 be taught in schools,
and this was the kind of Christianity
which he hoped would be continuously
maintained by this society. by the state.
and by the church in these realms.

Two CURIOUS NEEDLEs.-Thc
King Of Prussia recently visited Il
necelc mandatory in his king
dom, in order TO SEQ what machi-
merry, combined with the human
hand could produce. He was
shown number of supcrfno nee
dies, thousands Of which, togeth~
CT, did not weigh half an ounce,
and marveled how such minute
objects could be pierced with m
eye. But ho was to sec in this
respect how even something still
finer and moro perfect could be
created. Tho borcr-that is, the
workman whose business it is to
bore the eyes in these needless
asked for hair from the mon
arch's head. 1t was readily given,
and with a smile. He placed it
at onco under the boring machine,
turned Il hole in it with the
greatest care, furnished it with II
thread and then handed the sim
gular needle to tho astonished
King.
The second curious needle is in
possession Of Queen Victoria. 1t
was made at tho celebrated nee
die manufactory at Bcdcitch, and
represents the column of Trajan
in miniature. This wcll-lxnown
Roman column is adorned with
numerous scenes in sculpture,
which immortalizc Trajan's heroic
actions in war. On this diminu-
tive needle, sccnos in tho lfo of
Queen Victoria are represented in
rolief, but so finely cut and SO
small, that it requires y magnify
ing glass to see them. The Vic.
toria needle can, moreover, bo
opened it contains a nun Dor of
needles Of smaller size, which arc
equally adorned with scenes in
relief.

at the huge total OF |, 100, 900, 900 bushels.
