About daylight, the regiment having
halted, and all fallen asleep just as they
sat down in their places, one of those in
comprehensible things, cilled a "panic,"
was inaugurated somewhere in the col.
umn, by a vicious or frightened 'r.ort , e,
running titer smite of the sleeping men.
Quick as lightning the panic spitead
through the whole line, and all undt . r
the sudden alarm, half awake, and con fu
scions only of Some danger, ran, in con-
Oen, towards the woods. A single mo
ment, however, suffitird to discover the
truth, and, laughing at their fears, the
men returned to their pine, s in the line.
Had it been a real attack, at such a time,

things which can neither be explained,

THE GOODNESS OF Goo.—•• God is love":
said the Anomie of love; -and twhie:l
have also heard the same; of
ped that voice of consolation frehif.4he
firmament of. Ilnly Scripture,—"Gnd is
love." Every phase of human affection
—the parent's anxious solicitude and
tender yearning, the charities of. the
common hearth, the brother's enthusias
tic support, the bosom friend's warm re
sponse to confidence—all are mere strag
gling rays of His infinite light; feeble,
partial emanations from the fulness of,
love. which in Him is wrap, up. What
are the evidences of this love t ,f God?
They are written on the . face of nature
and on the face of Scriptures. Every
fragmentary glean' of happiness which
glances across the path of men is a testis
many of the I , ve of Gnd to a fallen
world. We taste Ifisgoatinesl in the many
enjoyments which He has strewed
around the way-side of' our daily life, in
the fair landscape, in the morning
prime. in ti.e music of birds, in the t i
vetsified beauty of the seasons. Scrip.
tare represents Him as caring for the
fatherless and widow ; ministering at.
the bed-side of the ai:As; wiping away
the tears from the eyes of the afflicted;
and abile He rolls the planet along his
fiery path,-healing the broken in heart,
and giving medicine to heal their sick
.
But nil these twtnifestat ions of love are
feeble, dim, inadequate: the starlight
glimmerings of Divine goodness, not -the
going forth of that goodness. in its noon
day strength. Look at the Crow Mice
more. and view it now in the light of that
oracle: “lle loved us. and sent his Son

MR Bur WITH A STRAW IIAT.--A
crippled bagger was inviable to pick up
some old cloths that bad bean thrown
front a window, whin a crowd of rude
bop; pillared about him, mimicking his
awkward movements. Presently a nob' e
little tellow came up, and pushing thro'
the crowd, helpeo the poor crippled
man to pick up his gins, and placed
them in a bundle. Then, slipping a
piece of :liver into his hands, he
. was
running away, when a voice from above
him said, "Little boy with a straw hat,
look up!" A lady leaning from an up
per window, said earnestly. God bless
you, my little fellow ! Go, will bless you
for that !" As he walked away he tho't
how clad be had made his own heart by
doing good: Hs thought. of the poor
beggar's grateful look; of the lady's
smiles and her approval; and last, and
better than all, he could almost hear his
heavenly Faiher whispering, "Blessed
are the merciful, for they shall obtain
mercy."
Little reader, when you bare an op
portunity of doing good, and feel tempt.

"J. R. ORWIG, Dear Sir :—I am re:
joiced to witness the general enthusiasm
of the citizen! alone the line of the pro
posed Railroad from Lewisburg to Belle
fonte. If any one will take the trouble
to examine a-State map he will see that
this route lies very directly in a line be
tween New York oity and the West. by
way of.either the Catawissa road and its
eastern connections, or one of the Sun
bury roads, and its eastern connectione.
It seems almost certain that the result of
the present real Railroad war for fa
vorable cMections with the Union Pa
cific Railroafl must result in the construe
lion of a new linefrons the Susquehanna, in
Union county, westward to Bellefonte,
Clearfirld, Brookville. Clarion, Franklin,

State, and by many miles shorter than
the circuitous route the trade of the west
ix now compelled to fake over the Penn
sylvania road. byway of Pi tsbarg.flar
riAurg, Philadelphia to New York, or by
way of E , ie, Salamanca Elmira, and the
-Erie road to New York.
This question is sow being discussed
by the PittslutrE and other western pa
pars, whtle the Philndelphia papers seem
in be jeteons of the trade that might. thug
be diverted from that ei - y. The Railroad
and linrng Regislir, I observe.. is in favor

I hope your citizens, and those of Lewis
burg and Belh-fonie, will see to it that
these Rot ilrond interests will be repre
sented at the Millheim meeting, on the
15th of April, and then, if the citizens
a'ong the line manifest aprnper interest,
no doubt a plan eon be agreed upnn to
put. this part - of the line, from Lewisburg
to Bellefonte, under contract in a very

The Student and HiS - True Position
Could the summit be gained at one
step, but few would remain at the foot.
Yet, information obtained in this way,
would avail the posseasor but little. The
trail plant that springs into existence
between the setting and rising of the
sun, is of abort duration. The delicate
parte, of which it is composed, are una
ble to endure the scorching rays of the
noon-day sun, and they soon wither and
die. But the mighty oak upon which
we gaze with so much wonder and admi
ration, is the work of time. Ages have
elapsed since the seed from which sprang
that massive trunk was committed to the
earth. Many are the storms and winds
with which it has battled. Yet it has
proudly maintained its po:ition, and is
properly styled the monarch of the syl
van race. Thus it is with the mind of
the student. It cannot become matured
in an instant. It requires time and de
termination. In the first place, a desire
to improve must be ingrafred in the
hears. Then onw•srl. and upward, must,
be the motto; keeping the desire ever
fresh in the nir.l.l—tesolvcd to advance,

sigh that we are not thus gifted; sigh
that the• God of nature has not euduwed

instead of being an • obstacle, should
stimulate us to welter exertion. We
Nhould look - up to FuFla men as worthy of

young shout, which has been implanted
tu the nand, becomes vi-ib'e, it must be
ettrefiStly nourished. Study, unceasing,
self-denying study. roust invigorate it.
Perseverance and industry must keep it
in its proper shape. 112ught must pane
it, and. if necessary, it must he watered
with the tears of adversity. If our ef
forts to imrrxre the mind, in order . to
become distinguished in any sphere, are
limited to an earnest .wish—a longing
desire, our hopes are destined to be
Wasted. But by a vigorous exertion of
all the powers of both mind and body,
oar otject may be gained. We must dig
deep to find the gem. Thick is the cov
