The wild atboisdaof France has never debauched its' subjects,* nor stained its records.: To christiaQS.il awards all the spirituality, importance, and vitality it claims, with 1 the obligation, acknowledged, .to propagate it, at least possessively; .It clings to' at heelogy sufficiently sublime, morality sufficiently benevolent, to elevate all inteliecta, and purify all hearts. : It s ,religion mingles.in, and; modifies,; ila : pursuits, : ita aspirations,, and-its,.de-portment, learns and feels tbo.oerdiaal .jloctrinca of oqr ropnblic I -r"t l hat all mep are free, and equal" ip source; equal dp * rights, equ ul in grandeur of personality’ and. destiny. As a nation we have learned “to.regard the universe, ■ as wellas . pur own continent, with deep interest, -as, the vast domain of our Father I -the-shadow of his otributes; and the scaffolding.erected to furnish us at ;once with the means and the motives to ascend to the Heavens.’’ In God we find a starting*point in the pnrsnit of truth; a basis-pi inciple in the construction of our government; "a. firm foundation for onr reasonings;, a link to all that is permanent; a sky light without which the temple of trritli would bo o' dreary tomb.”.

a matter of reference in, re-*, gard to the Ohio river, wo will state that tho greatest freshet ever known was in 1837. Then, according to tho statistics of Captain Lockhart, the superintendent of the canal, tbs river at tho head, of the falls rose altogether forty-two feet,. At the foot.of the fells tho rise was sixty-four feet. In 1847 the raise of the water was nearly eqnal to to the flood of* ’37. In ordinary freshets the water has risen some thirty-six feet at the head of the falls, and fifty-two feat at Portland. In the Ohio, at the lowest staiga known, there were seventeen inches on the shoal* esM bars, and only.Tour inches, op the crest of the falls. * During the low water of the Sommer of 1856, there were but about four inches water on ; tho fa] Is,in the pass. Thej falls pilots then improved the navigation of the falls by blasting out the rocks, by, which they . increased tho depth ; to ten .inches, and widened , the chute from twenly-eight to feet,
