Apropos of Sunday schools
long since, one Of our 5. $. Superln-
tendents illustrated faith, by a de-
scription of his ascending the ladders
to the top of the State House. He
made the ascent slowly, tilnidly,
steadily; but, step by step he finally
succeeded; and his toilsome steps were
more than repaid by the beautiful
view he gained of the surrounding
country. A class of boys listened at
tentively, butfailing TO makea spirit
nal application of the address; imme-
diately revolved upon a practical il
lustration of the fact, by making the
ascent before the next Sabbath. True
to their purpose, they not only reach
ed the highest point, but experiment
ell on one of their little comrades, by
letting him down "a la brick and
mortar;n and narrowly missed send

that such people, possessed of such
country, cannot long continue to

cannot shut their eyes to the fact that
it is the part Of craftsmanship to
meet this condition of affairs and
give the South assurance of an Amer

who would hail such an era as this
would inaugurate the golden age of

was talking with representative OF
the Pacific coast yesterday, writes Gath,
and he said that New York was now in
habited by nearly all the survivors of the
flush years in San Francisco. "Specu-
lation," he said, utterly cleaned out the
Pacific coast in character, in health, in
emigration, in confidence, and finally the
people rushed from the throttle of the
spectators over to the sand-lotters and
tramps.
