The Anchor of Columbus.

the island of Trinidad, of the mainland

should be swallowed up; but the noun

subsided after a violent contest with the
cOuuter-current of the strait. This sud

caused by the swelling Of one Of the
rivers which flow into the Gulf of
Paris, aud which were as yet unknown

Mans Progress in the Past a Hint Of his

Think Of the advancement man has
made since the time when he was eau
nibsl cave-dweller, shivering out Of the
glacial epoch. aud conteudiug with Wild
beasts for a foothold on the earth, till
now that he enjoys the idealism Of
Berkeley, wields the quaternions Of
Hamilton, uses the lighluings for his
red-saudaled messengers, holds his spec
troscope 20 "a star and tells what ele-
meuts compose 10, or 90 an out-kirting
uebula aud declares 90 "a mass Of iucau-
descent hydrogen. From such a back
ground Of accomplished fact he seems
really 90 have right to peer forth into
the unbounded future aud promise
himself an unbouuded destiny. The
repetition Of such a progress, nay much
less, 10 may not unreasOuaoly be imag-
iued, would raise the curtains from uu-
suspected secrets, bring the family OF
intelligences scattered over all worlds
into conscious communication, aud ac-
complish the deliverauce Of the whole
creation Travelling aud groaniug to-
getler unto this day for the redemption
OF the creature. What splendid, all
most Incredible task man has already
achieved 10 disentaugling the apparent
astron0mic motions aud converting
them into the real ones. How i'm
mems ely subiimer and more complex is
the position of man on this planet than
% seemed 10 the primitive savage, who
knew only what his crude senses taught
hiu, although all the while the moon
was circiiug about him twenty-five
hundred miles, an hour, and spinning
around the sun over thirty thousuud
miles an hour and swoopiug with the
whole solar system through the blue
void with still swifter eyre ia vet

physical fact. Its harmonic correiate in
the spiritual sphere would be nothing
