One OF the finest things Geo. D.
Prentice ever wrote is this inimitable
passage EdIL1 0iJI1
'.It cannot be that ekrth is mans
only abiding Aace. i cannot be that
or lifesis bubble cast:by the ocean Of
aternity Is ao& ibr mpment uponsits
waves and sink again into ncthingness.
Else why is it that the light and glorious
aspirations which leap like angels from
the temple Of our hearts are forever un-
satisfied, Why is, it that the rainbow
and cloud come withSa ibeantE that is
not of earth, and then pass off to leave
us to muse on their loveliness? Why
is il that the stars which hold festivals
around their midnight throne, are set
above our limited faculties, forever
mocking with their anapproaohable
glory? And finally why is it that the
bright forms Of beauty are presented to
our view and taken from US, leaving
the thousand streams of affection to
flow back in an Alpine torrent upon
our hearts? We are born fof higher
destiny than. of earth. There is q
realm where the stars will be spread
out before us like islands that slumber
in the ocean, and where beautiful being
pass before us like shadows will stay
forever in our presence"

The scheme of iniquity known as the
McCrary railroad bill passed the Washing

by the meagre majority of FIVE votes. The
character and purpose of this scheme NAV
be correctly summarized by saying that It

railroad companies The project is a fur
Their step in the grand movement of cen
tralization perhaps it is the widest step
in that direction that has yet been propos
ed, The proposition that the Washington
congress shall assume to be the regulative
power over all the railway business in the
country, even to the regulation of the
prices of freights and other commodities.
while in practice it would be simply the
railroad power regulating and promoting
its own selfish ends through the federal
agency, involves more completely the sub
jugation and subordinatiOn OF the political
functions of the several states than any
other project vet devised. That it would
spec Oily relieve tie railroads from all the
obligations they are now placed under by
charters granted by the states, and even
tually enable them even to avoid taxation

W1SHING TON MEDALS.

Very queer and miscellaneous things passed
from the redeemable to the irredeemable stage,
may be seen offered for sale in the windows
of the pawnbroker-futes, bowie-knives, meer-
schaum pipes and Bibles. These are the
minor evidences of private and obscure ext
gency-Objects of historical Importance are
pledged or purchased in a more dignifed
way. OF this We have just had an example,
and the story is worth reciting, not the
less because it carries with it certain
moral suggestions which we desire the reader
to make for himself. When Gen. Washington
died, he left behind him a good deal of curl
Gus personal property, including about the
shabbest library ever gathered by great
man-that is if we may judge it by the printed
catalogue He left also collection of eleven
silver medals illustrating the early history
OF the country, some of them copies of
the medals struck in Paris by order of
Congress. After Washington's death, we are
told, this collection passed into the possession
of one branch of his family, and finally into
that of some Washington who was exceedingly
short of money. Fortunately, the interesting
relics were doomed to ascend no vulgar spout
Singularly enough, the man who wanted
money found purchaser in Mr.. Webster,
who Is usually supposed to have wanted money
also, But 1t was with Q difference. For tho
