The Unknown.
(MetaphyS ySical


We conceive go-extremes are met!
To cross which interval we get
That little respite we regret
So much to owe:-
This we call life. The past seems naught;
The present, knOwn:-a future. fraught
With all the auguries of thought
In endless flow
Ofret' ibution, all have sought
Tis all we know.
Time was when felt more secure
OF footing and OF knowledge sure,
Than now: but mystery did lure
Me to the brink.
l stepped upon the outer edge,
1t yielded, and the topping ledge
Ger swung. piled for further pledge
OF Safety-think
could not, nor grasp one entering wedge
One binding link.
It hurled me far beyond the zone
OF outer thOught-stark, and alone
Behind, the ghosts OF concepts flown
TrOoped-desolate:
Before, experiences could find
No recognition OF their kind:
No circumstances, where the mind
Is adequate
To grasp contingent cause, behind
An unknown state
The attributes of being too,
Fell short OF my eXtent-no clew
TO nature found: no old, no new:
No time; no space
TO till-no present and no past.
My future horoscope cast
Before l landed-'twaS my last
In laws Embrace
The rest--a naScency epmassed-
without place.

The Board of Army Officers appoint

posed canal from Lake Erie to the Ohio
River, has reported, and considers the

Gus canals making the required connec-
tion:
First, Eastern route-Cleveland to

Second, Central route-Sandusky Bay

cinnati.
On all these routes the water supply
is such that with necessary improve
ments it is practical BILE to construct a
canal of the kind required that can be
operated at its full capacity for 275
days each year.
The estimated cost of each waterway
of the prescribed dimensions is: East
ern route, s12, 2,299, ,372; Central route,
$1S,094 1865. To the latter may be add
ed, if necessary, cost of feeder from
Lewiston reservoir to the Sciota valley,
SPA, 900, making the whole sum for the
Central route, s1s, 11S,1c5; Western
route, S23, oil, ,374, The Board concludes
that while it would be feasible to con,
atruct canal of the dimensions. .speci
fed it would, by reason of inadequate
depth in the canal and the Ohio be
restricted in its benefits.

A six-Year-Old BOY Fatally injured Near
sardIs.
Sistersville, March 5th.-A sad acci-
dent occurred Wednesday afternoon a
short distance above Sardis station on
the Ohio River Road. which will proba-
bly, cost the life of little boy six years
old, named Lee Martin. The boys
parents live near the railroad track
and this boy has frequently stopped
the section hands paw car by insisting
on seeing how near he could stand to
the car when it went past him.
Wednesday afternoon, as the north.
bound fast train was going up to
Wheeling, young Martin and some
other boys were playing on the track
and it is supposed that he was trying
again to see how near he could stand
to the cars while they went by. All
the cars missed him until the Pullman
car came along the steps of which ex-
tending out a little farther than the
others hitting; the boy in the head,
knocking him good ways from the
track.
The train was stopped and the boy
was taken to his parents home in
sensible in which condition he was ly-
ing when heard from last. The train
went out to New Martinsville and sent
down physicians from that town but
it's hardly possible for the boy to live.
1t is terrible accident and should be
a warning to other boys and men to
keep away from the cars while they
are in motion.

HE newspaper war in Muskingun
county goes merrily on over the man
ner of selecting delegates to the State
convention. The Times Recorder es
pouses the cause of the Central Com.
mittee, who will select a delegation,
and the Courier insists upon mass
convention to choose Muskingum' S
thirteen representatives. The State
Convention will no doubt decide the
quarrel.
With past disturbances of like nature
in Washington county in our eye, we
fear this is but another of those nasty
messes mixed up by politicians to fur
ther personal ambition, and does not
come about on either side through ad-
herence to or violation of any particu-
lar principle. 1t is much more mat
ter of "Who?" than "How?"
