In an interesting account of a jour-
ney through the great canons of the
colorado River, MIR. Robert Brewster
Stanton gives in the Cosmopolitan d
lively impression Of the danger OF
scaling those marble cliffs, (which
stand from one TO two thousand feet
in vertical walls, with scar>e a bench
Or ledge wide enough for a mountain
sheep"
We carefully picked our way around
The lower points of the marble, up
through a crack some two hundred
feet in height, and out upon a little
ledge perhaps three feet wide that
runs along the solid wall, till our
progress seems cut of by a sharp but
tress that projects beyond the ledge.
The buttress is V-shaped, the sharp
point extending out owe the bench.
On the other side of it is the same
little ledge. To reach it calls for
strength and muscle and something
like the nimbleness of a cat, for with
toe OF boot and ends Of fingers
fastened on little points Of marble on
n side, it is necessary to reach Just
such points on the other.
l hesitate for a moment LOOK down
yer the precipice, and carefully cal
culate how long it would take to
reach the bottom. The wild flowers
are blooming all over the slopes at
the foot Of the cliff.
We canuOt help each other, and
each must stand back while the other
reaches the ledge beyond the dark
valley below.
Not a word is spoken. Each one
adjusts his tr%appings, that nothing
may be out of place. Hislop first
swings around, and reaches the ledge
in safety. l placed my foot carefully
on the edge of the wall, close tn the
b%uttress, and secure a good hold with
my right hand. My left foot IA
thrown round, and my left hand
creeps along till it catches a little
finger of marble which seems left for
the purpose.
just as | start to make the lean 1
am caught by my coat on the edge OF
the marble, aud held fast In mid air.
Again I look down, aud calculate
how long it would take to reach the
bottom. With one strong effort L
bend my back, loose the coat, and
safely land on the farther edge.
Kane has longer arms aud legs,
and in a moment we are all around
the b%uttress, having swung our
bodies clean out in the air, a thou.
'and feet of sheer wall below us, and
Is much more above 1t requires a
sool head and steady nerve, for, look

I.eturn.

There Is a truly noble sway Of man
V man; one which it is our honor
to seek and exert; which is earned by
well-doing; which is a chief recon-
pense of virtue. We refer to the
quickening influence of a good and
great mind over other minds, by
which it brings them into sympathy
with itself. Far from condemning
this, we are anxious TO hold it forth
as the purest glory which virtuous
ambition can propose.
The power Of awakening, enlight-
ening, Glevating our fellow-creatures,
may, with peculiar fitness, be called
divine, for there is no agency of God
so benetlcent and sublime as that
(which He exerts on rational natures,
land by which He assimilates them to
himself.
This sway over souls is the surest
test Of greatness.
We admire, indeed, the energy
which subdues the material creation
pr d~evelopes the physical resources Of
"a State. But 1t is a nobler might
(which calls forth the intellectual and
moral resources or a people, Which
communicates new impulses to So
Iiety, throws into circulation new
Iind stirring thoughts, gives the mind
p new consciousness of its faculties
hnd rouse and fortities the will to an
!unconquerable purpose of well doing.
This spiritual power is worth al.
other. To improve mans outward
condition is a secondary agency, and
lis chiefly important as it gives the
means of inward growth.
! The most glorious minister Of God
on earth is he who speaks with q life
giving energy to other minds, breath
ing into them the love of truth and
Virtue, and strengthening them to
suffer in a good cause, and lifting
them above the lenses and the world.

A Valuable violin

It is seldom that amateur vlolinists
have such a valuable instrument as G.
w. Hone. His violin was made in 17l5,
by the famous Wenger, a pupil OF
Nicholas Ainati, and for richness of tone
it almost equals a genuine Cremona.
The following distinguished profession.
ais have played on Mr.. Hopes violin and
praised it: Ole Bull, Divide Musin, Re-
mepyi, Herr Johannes Wolff and Maude
Powell. The bow the amateur uses was
made by Lupot, of Paris.-New Iork

This phrase, used by the Colchester Rubber
Co. to emphasize the popularity and desirable

pirate at this time, as indicating that the Far
mer is "on top" The recent lnnic las not
materially affected the Farmer. Crops are
fairly good. Europe wants our produce and
has the money to pay for it. Hence, the Far.

Difficulties.
BALTIMORE, July 1S.-Ex-Senator
Henry &. Davis, of West Virginia, Pres
ident of the est Virginia Central and
Baltimore ald Cumberland railways,
who was appointed by President Harr-
son member of the international
Railroad Commission, has been shown a
statement Of the progress made by the
surveys of the route for the proposed
Pan. American railroad. He said that
no formal meeting of the commissioners
had been held since the surveyors re-
turned to the United States, and no
maps had as yet been completed, out
from the Typographical work done which
had been submitted TO the commission
he was fully convinced Of the feasibility
of the enterprise. The route through Gem
trail America laid out by Mr.. Macob was
along the southern boundary OF Mexico,
and through Guatemala, San Salvador,
Honduras, Nicaragua, and Costa Rca,
TO the San Negro river. This portion
of the route would present no y1ry
great engineering difficulties. The
line through the Andean region, sur
veyed by Mr.. Skunk, was necessarily
the most troublesome to locate and
construct. 1t would lead from the Ma
cob Isthman survey to Carthegenia on
the Caribbean Sea. The line through
Ecuador to Peru he knew nothing OF
as yet. The aggregate length of the
road would probably DE 1880
miles, As soon as the surveys
are completed the commission
will meet to view them. The cost OF
the surveys is borne in proportion to
population by the several American
governments represented at the Pana-
ma Congress. Senator Davis says this
railroad was always one of ex-Secretary
Baine's pet projects, and he looked for
ward TO its construction as the means OF
locking the American republics in a
commercial union which would enable
them TO finally solve their own financial
and other problems independent OF Eu-
rope, and inducing greater stability OF
government in South America. Mr..
Davis had no doubt that the interua-
tional railroad would be most powerful,
and it nowhere was more difficult I'M
dertaking than several Russia had car
ried to q successful termination since
the Russo-Turkish war.
