We understandethat subscriptions to the

to something like;= ~380,000,:and', that interest
iii-manifested ins-.the-V‘pnoject, allwalo'ng the

however, $100,000 must be secured.~ It is
proposed to raise that, sum" ’ininiediaftcly‘by
inciting eitiZens. at the northern terminus

ot the line to renewed interest. To that end.

it is thought proper, soon, to ina’uguifatetgi~

which to base our prosperity. Bank stock

Again, the institution is not satisfied‘inbe-

ing above the common-keel, but ’will soon

 

commence an erratic movement about the.

streets, evidently with an idea to show us
that she is able to become a rolling stoick
when her shares are at a premium.

Some Of ourneighbors near Christ church
have been in the habit, during the _ past
month, of blowing at irregular intervals,
upon some . sort of musical instrument, re-
sembling the tones of a fish, or dinner horn
so closely, that, hearing it, we have, on one
or two occasiOns rushed into our house and
asked,—“Is dinner‘ready ?” and found the
time to indicate only halfpast nine. By in-
quiring we have endeavored to learn wheth-
er the instrument -had’ a m,idinmr, E flat,
or A flat pitch, and have come to the con-
clusion that the. performer himself cannot
tell. ' ‘ ' " V ' "

Further improvements inithe chancel ar- '
rangements 'of Christ church have taken
place. A new chandelier has been procured
and‘important additionsme to the old one.
The question of re-seating the’ building-is
j again" agitated.

ly, steadily‘l‘up the mountainside. All who
were there for the'first time were more or
less excited ; but if any feltfear, it was soon
dispelled by the facts of- the situation—the
smooth and gentle movement of the train,
the utter absence of all apparent anxiety
on the part of those who had been there be'
fore, andithe perfect composure of the sev-
eral‘ofllcers of the Company who were on
board—and in a very b ief time the whole
party seemed engrossed with the novelty of
the situation, and the magnificent views

. which opened before them as they made

their way upward, and entirely unconscious
of any sense of danger. There was no feel-
ing of going up ;,thefseats being hung like a
swing, the occupants “retainedtheir perpen-
dicular,” regardless Of the. grade, and We
seemed to be going ahead On a level plain.
.As werose in our progress, the view of“ the
scenery became broader and more magnifi-
cent ; Tinno other situation in thaworld can
anything be found tOequal'it.‘ very rod

and. all 1 other feeling was lost in com-
bined.- admiration of the grand panorama
spreadout before them and the wonderful

favorably. ’

As we proceeded onward and upward,our
little engine steadily and bravely pushing
us ahead, makingt‘liree brief stops for re-
fi'eshments in the form of wood and water,
we soon became conscious of a change of
temperature; At the start the ordinary
clothing was comfortable, the mercury
standing but little below ’70 ; before getting
half way up 5overcoats were in demand, and
as we approached the summit the wind
blew a gale—a cold, hard wind that made
our'teeth chatter. , ..

After a ride of an hour and a quarter, we
reached theend of our journey, upon the ex-
treme tip-top of Mount Washington, stop-i
plug a few rods in frontof the hotel. Here
we disembarked, and now came the tug of
war. _, The -- most difilc‘ult and dangerous
portion of our journey 'was the few rods
from the cars to the hotel. The wind blew
a gale,'men’s hats had to he lied or held one

like tho“*-loOsened—.topsail of a ship ; one
could with difficultystand, and the pagsago

_ The Bug]. of Four Great Men.

The four conquerors who occupy the
most conspicuous places in the world’s his-
tory are Alexander, Hannibal, Caesar, and
Bonaparte. " " " ~ - .

, Alexander, after having climbed the diz-

 

 

' zy height of his ambition with his temples

bound with chaplets dipped in the blood
of :millions, loolfed down upon a conquered
world, and wept that there was not another
World for him to conquer, set a city on fire,
and died in a scene-of debauch.

Hannibal, after having, to the astonish-
ment and consternation of Rome, passed
the Alps, and having put to flight the ar-
mies of the mistresp of the worldrand strip-
ped “three bushels of gold rings from the
fingers of her' slaughtered knights,” and
made her foundations quake, fled the coun-
try, being hated by those who once exult-
ingly united his name tothat of their God,»
and called him Harm-Baal ; and died at
last by poision administered by his own
hand, unlamented and unwept in a foreign
land. '

Caesar, after ha ving conquered eight hun-
dred Cities, and dyeing his garments in the
blood of one million of his foes, after hav-
ing pursued to death the only rival he had
on earth, was miserably assassinated by
those he considered his nearest friends, and
in that very place the attainment of which
had been his greatest ambition.

Bonaparte, whose mandates kings and
popes obeyed, after having filled the earth
with the terror of his name—after having
deluged Europe with tears and blood,. and
clothed the world in sackcloth—closed ‘his
davs in lonely banishment, almost literally
exiled from the world, yet where he could
sometimes see his country’s banner waving
over the depot, but which did not and could
not bring him aid.

BABY’s LINEN.—- An eminent physician in
Hearth and Home contributes the following
exquisite article for the benefit of young
mothers. It is the richest gem we have cull;
ed for some time. He says:

An intelligent young mother . inquired
some days since how she could best preserve
her child's linen clean and sweet, when
changed frequently through the day. I. di-
rected her never to dry it before the fire,
but in the sun and open air, if the weather
permitted. You thus not only avoid satur—
ating the air of your rooms with the vola-

linen, but ,the sun’s rays have powers of
cleansing and disinfecting which artifical
heat has not, and to purify and preserve
the linen. She followed my directions, but
as is too often the rractice. dried and aired it‘
in the nursery window. Her fastidious lins-
band remonstrated in vain against this un-
seemly exposure. Believing that if she
saw her practice as others saw it, she would
desist, he so directed their afternoon walk
as to bring the nursery window in full view
from a central part of the town. Stopping
abruhtly, he pointed to the offending linen
flapping in the breeze, and asked sarcas-
tically : “My dear, what is that displayed
from our window ? ” “Why” she roudly
replied, “that is the flag of our nion.’
Conquered by this pugnent retort, he salut-
ed the flag with a swing of his hat, and
pressing his wife’s arm closer within his
own, sang, as they walked homeward. -
“And long may it wave."
