MOR&UEIMGtOUS
Death is a Grand Secret.
\\ e know not beforehand when and how
or by what means we, or others, shall be
brought to death; by what road we must
go the way whence we shall not return,
what disease or what disaster will be the
door to put us into the house appointed for
all living.
We cannot describe what death is, how
the knot is untied between the body and
soul, or how the spirit of man goes upwards,
to be we know not how. With what a
dreadful curiosity does the soul launch out
into the vast ocean of eternity, and resign
itself to an untried abyss! Let us make it
sure that the gates of Heaven shall open
to us on the other side of death, though
it is away we are to go but once.
We have no correspondence at all with
separate souls, ncr any acquaintance with
their state; it is an unknown, undiscovered
reigon to which they are removed ; we can
neither hear from them nor send to them.
While we are here in a world of sense, we
speak of a world of spirits as the blind do
<<t colors, and as we move thither we shall
he amazed to find how much we have been
mistaken.
One Drop at a Time. —llave you ever
watched an icicle as it formed ? You
noticed how it froze one drop at a time un
til it was a foot or more long. If the wa
ter was clean, the icicle remained clear, and
Spa; Lied brightly in the sun ; but if the
water was hut slightly muddy, the icicle
looked foul, and its beauty was spoiled.—
Just so our characters are forming. One
little thought or feeling at a time adds to
i s influence. If each thought be pure
and right, the soul will he lovely, and will
sparkle with happiness* ; but if impure and
wrong there will be final deformity and
w retc lied n ess.
Living too High
1 here is a dreadful ambition abroad for
being genteel. \\ c keep up appearances
often, at the expense of honesty; and, al
though we are not rich, yet we must seem
to be .-o. We mm-t be respectable, though
only in the meanest sense—in mere vulgar
outward show. e do not have the cour
age to go patiently onward in the condition
of lite in which it has pleased Clod to call
us ; hut must needs live in some fashionable
state t.. which we ridiculously please to call
ourselves, an.j all to gratify that unsubstan
tial, genteel world of which wc form a part.
There is n constant struggle and pressure
for front seats in the social amphitheatre;
in the midst of which all noble, self deny
ing love is trodden down, and many tine
natures are inevitably crushed to death
\\ hat waste, what misery, what bankruptcy,
come from this ambition to dazzle others
with the glare of apparent worldly success,
we need not describe. The mischievous
results show themselves in a thousand ways
—in rank frauds committed by men who
dare to be dishonest, but do not dare to
seem poor; and in the desperate dashes for
fortuuc, in which the pity is not to tuucli
for those who fail, ate for the hundreds of
innocent families who are so often involved
in their ruin.

'Room Enough Up Stairs.'
Every one admires eminence in any de
j partuient of science, but few really consid
i er that it is in the power of every one to
attain it. Circumstances have undoubted
ly something to do with the direction giv
en to a man's pursuits—the natural bent
: or inclination of the mind also affects it,
j but it is certain that if the attention divi
ded between half a dozen different objects
were devoted to scientific attainment in
any one branch, we would have more learn
ed meu among us and fewer smatterers.
Many young men, and especially young
i teachers, delight themselves with day
dreams of future eminence, perhaps in the
realms of natural science, or in the acqui
j sition of other species of learning. Re
turning from a popular lecture by Agassiz
I or Draper, they feast their imaginations
' with the thought that they too may one
. day obtain equal distinction, or perhaps
; benefit mankind by some useful applica
tion of the arts to a domestic purpose, but
I their application gi.vs out when they have
made but tmall progress in the elementary
knowledge requisite. The fascinations of
■ science lie more particularly in her higher
i regions, and when the young atudent reads
i of the reconstruction of an extinct animal
; by the genius of au Owen, or sees the fea
tures of bis friend preserved by the art of
Daguerre, he is apt to forget the long and
difficult path leading to these results. Few
are content to endure the trial for thesahe
of the reward, and be satisfied if after pa
tient years of thoughtful research they add
oue new item to the general fund, or clear
up one doubtful point.
After perusing some essay or treatise
more interesting than the majority of sci
entific works, such as Mitchell's Lectures
on Astronomy or Buckland's Curiosities of
Geology, the difficulties to be overcome
before entering the higher fields of specu
lative or absolute research seem to diruin

ish—are perhaps entirely forgotten. The
student, lost in lofty conjecture or wrapt
in admiration of the wonderful revelations
j of the telescope, is apt to overlook the
mental drudgery necessary to enable the
mind to freely grasp the mighty questions
propounded for solution to the astronomer,
or even to make the simple calculations of
an almanac.
A knowledge of the higher departments
of algebra, and its application to geometry,
of the integral calculus, and of the phe
nomena of optics, are necessary to him who
would emulate Newton or La Place, Mitch
ell or Loomis. lie who would devote his
researches to chemistry, should first com
prehend the relations of bodies to each
other, as revealed by natural philosophy.
He who would follow in the footsteps of
Buffon, Cuvier, or Owen, must first learn
the structure of his own lody.
What we would more particular)- urge
upon the young student is that he should
not suffer himself to be so dazzled by the
contemplation of the more beautiful fea
tures of science as to become a mere
drearier, always intending to begin study
in earnest, yet always deferring it. The
Italians have a proverb—" Hell is paved
with good intentions," and he who would
achieve eminence must work while the day
lasts. A celebrated English jurist being
asked whether he thought there would be
opportunity for another lawyer in London,
replied, " There i§ always room enotlgh up
stairs." There are many fields open to
the youth of our day. The science of or
ganic chemistry is almost in its infancy.
Many of the phenomena of acoustics, the
chemical laws governing light, the powers
and functions of magnetism and electrici
ty and their relation to each other yet re
main to be developed by research or veri
fied by experiment. He who is desirous
of adding his mite to what is already
known need not despair of finding objects
worthy of investigation, or of gratifying
his aspirations for distinction. " There is
always room up stairs."

POmiEAL
Concession, Reconstruction, Coersion, &c.
Those who talk of concession and recon
struction, do not seem to be aware that the
Southern traitors who set on foot disunion,
repudiate both. That arch-villain Yancy,
who it will be remembered was the leader
of southern democracy at Charleston when
the democratic convention met there, and
afterwards was prominent in nominating
Breckinridge at Baltimore, a few weeks
ago made a speech in the Alabama disunion
convention in which he said :
Mr. President, I avow myself as utterly,
unalterably opposed to any and ali plans of
reconstructing a Union with the Black Re
publican States of the North. No new guar
antees —no amendments to the Constitution
—no peaceful resolutions—no repeal of offen
sive laws can offer to me any, the least, in
ducement to consider, even upon a proposi
tion to reconstruct our relations with the non
slaveholding States. This opinion is not
founded on any objection to a confederation
with States, north of Mason and Dixon's line,
cn principles mutually agreeable to them;
but it is founded on tho conviction that the
disease which preys on the vitals of the Fed
eral Union does not emanate from any defect
in the Constitution, but from a deeper source
—the hearts, heads, and concieDces of the
Northern people. They are educated to be
lieve slavery to he a religious as well as po
litical wrong, and consequently to hate the
slaveholder. Mr. Seward was right when he
declared that there was "an irrepressible
conflict," which would not cease until slavery
was exterminated. But, sir, the elements of
that conflict are not to be found in the Con
stitution, hut between the Northern and South
ern people. No compromises patched up to
secure the North the benefits of ,Union yet a
little longer, can re educate the people on the
slavery issue, so as to induce them, having
the majority, to withhold the exercise of its
power in aid of that " irrepressible conflict."
To accept of such reconstruction would, in
my opinion, he but salving over the irritated
surface of the deep rooted cancer, which has
been eating into the vitala of the Union, ef
fecting perhaps an apparent, a deceitful cure,
while still the loathsome and incurable disease
keeps on its fatal progress, and daily weakens
the body, until finally it breaks forth again
with renewed, because temporarily repressed
vigor, and the victim sinks in death.
That the present dissatisfaction ami dis
content in the South does not arise from the
fact that the Xorth had passed personal
liberty bills, or that the fugitive slave law
is not faithfully executed; nor from au appre
hension that the North proposes to inter
fere with slavery iu the States where it
exists, is proved by the declarations made
in the Soutli Carolina convention on the
passage of the ordinance of secession :
Mr. Farker said—" Mr President: It ap
pears to me with great deference to the opin
ions that have been expressed, that the pub
lie mind is fully made up to the great occas
ion that now awaits us. It is no spasmodic
effort that has come suddenly upon us ; but it
has been gradually culminating for along ser
ies of years, until, at last, it has come to that
point when we may cay the matter is entirely
right."
Mr. Inglis—" Mr. President: If there is
any gentleman who wishes to debate this mat
ter, of course, this body will hear him; but,
as to delay, for the purpose of a discussion,
I. fur one, am opposed to it. As my friend
( Mr. Parker) has suid—• Most of' vs here had
this matter under consideration tor the last
j twenty gears, and I presume, tee had by this
| time, an iced at n decision upon the subject."
I Mr. Keitt—Sir, we arc performing a great
act, which involves not only the stirring pros
eut, but embraces the whole great future for
ages to come. I hare been engaged in this
j great movement ever since 1 entered jAit in J
life. 1 aui content with what has b- en done
to day. and content with what will take place
to morrow. We have carried the body of this
| Union to its last resting place and now we
| drop the flag over its grave. After that is
done, 1 aiu ready to adjourn and leave the
' remaining ceremonies for to morrow.
Mr. Rhett.—" The secession of South Car
otiiia is not an event of a dag. It is not ami
thing produced by Mr. Lincoln's election, or
by lion execution of the Fugitice Slave Jmw.
It has been ei matter which has been <fathering
head f.r thirty years. The election of Lin
coin and Hamlin was the last straw on the
back of a catnel. But it was not the only
one. ]he back was nearly broken bofore.—
1 lie point upon which I now differ from my
Iriend is this : He says lie thought it expe
dient lor us to put this great question before
the world upon this simple matter of wrongs
on the question of slavery, and that question
turned upon the Fugitive Slave Law. Now,
in regard to the Fugitive Slave Law, I my
self doubt its constitutionality, and I doubt
ed it on the floor of the Senate, when 1 was a
member 'f that body. The States acting in
their sovereign capacity should be responsi
ble for the rendition of fugitive slaves. This
was our best security."
feuoh sentiments, expressing the opinions
of leading representative men in the South
Carolina movement, ought to satisfy, it
seems to us, any reasonable man of the mo
tives and purposes of the traitors who are
now doing all they can to break up the
Union.
J hose who talk of coercion strangely
enough seem to forget that the traitors are
coercing the I nited States into n conni
vance of treason. .Robberies may be com
mitted by bands of men as well as individ
uals, and to prevent the former from ta
king government property is no more than
for an individual to resist being robbed on
the highway or at his home.

New Lake Discovered in Minnesota.
A private letter from the venerable chap- j
lain at Fort Ripley, Rev. E. G. Gear, tot'. 1
\\ . \\ ooley, gives the particulars of the !
discovery of a beautiful lake, hitherto en
tirely unknown to white men, although
only six miles distant from the Fort. We j
are permitted to make the following ex- !
tracts from the letter :—' The first time the 1
existence of the lake was announced in the I
fort, was in the early part of the fall, or
the latter part of summer, by a man in the
vicinity who goes by the name of Lying
Jack, but nobody believed him. The lake
is from two to three miles in width, and
more than twelve miles long, and has a
margin of rare beauty, of fine sand and
pebbles, aud broad enough, from the posi- !
tiou I occupied, as far as the view extend- j
ed, to accommodate a carriage. It is sur- '
rounded with dark, dense forests of pines 1
and other timber, with high land opposite ;
the position from which I saw it. From
that point, only a part of the lake is seen; I
for it turns around a headland and glances
off in another direction. It is said that
there is another lake about half the size j
below it, and connected with it by a strait; !
and that both of them discharge their wa- j
ter into Long l'rairie river, aud thence in- !
to the ('row Ming. The solitude and i
beauty of the scenery, the dense dark for- |
est that environs it, I will leave you to im- i
agine, for I have no time to describe them, j
The Indians call it Rig Fish Lake. It no !
doubt contains a great abundance and va- ;
riety of fish, and Lying Jack affirms from
personal knowledge that white fish are j
among the number. Dr. Wall found the '
skeleton of a muskalonge on the shore, i
that indicated the largest size of that j
prince of fishes. If the United States
hold together, the Colonel intends to build ;
a large boat in the spring, on his own
plan, and rig it with sails and the lake
will be a famous place for resort fcr the in
mates of the garrison, for picnics and fish- |
iutr. —St. Paul Pioneer.
Lady Falls Dtad in Her Far lor,—
About three o'clock, on Sabbath after
noon, January 20th, Mrs. Melinda King,
wife of John M. King, of Johnstown,
while in her usual health and spirits, fell
and expired in an instant. While seated
in her parlor, surrounded by her children,
who had just returned from Sabbath-school,
and were exhibiting to her their books,
tickets Ac., she suddenly arose from her
chair, and falling forward, expired instant
ly, without a word, a moan, or a struggle.
Assistance was immediately called in, and
the aid of three physicians speedily obtain
ed, who applied restoratives and employed
such means a3 were within their power;
but their efforts were unavailing—3ne was
dead ! Up to this moment she had been
in good health, and had attended church
in the forenoon of that day. She was
about thirty-five years old, and leaves to
the care of her bereaved husband four
small children, the age of the eldest be
ing only about ten years
Distressing Suicide.
i ne greatest consternation was excited
in the northern part of the city last week,
by a suicidal act of a nature more than or
dinary distressing. A young wife and
mother, whose remarkable charms of per
son and manner are within the recollection
of a large circle of acquaintances, in a fit
of temporary derangement cut her throat
with a razor, dying almost immediately,
•"he had been married about fifteen months,
at the time of her death was residing
with her father and husband, (both De
pat tun nt clerks,) on Tenth street, between
Hand 11. On Thanksgiving eve she gave
birm to a child, since which time she has
been very ill, at periods delirious, and had
threatened to put an end to her existence,
so that it had beeti deemed advisable to
keep everything from her roach by which
she could do hersolt bodily injurv. Yes
terd), about 1A I'. M., while the family
were at dinner, she managed to make her
way unobserved to an upper room, where
she obtained a razor and drew it across her
throat with so much determination of pur
pose as to put an almost immediate end to
her existence. I lotcd on as she was by l.er
husband and parents, their distress may be
imagined. She was a truly amiable woman,
and worthy member of the Church <>f the
Ascension. Her marriage at (his church
some fifteen months ago, with every cir
cunistanee auspicious of a happy future,
was chronicled in the Star at the time, and
the announcement is doubtless in the mem
ory of many of our readers.— Washington

Forty Men Lost in the Snow.
An English journal says ; —' Perhaps no
more severe weather was ever experienced
on tho Yorkshire inoors than that which
prevailed during the past week. The
snow storms were continuous and heavy,
occasionally attended with thunder, and in
some of the valleys the drifts of snow are
twenty feet deep. All traffic was stopped,
and the partridges and grouse were driven
off the moors by scores, and were picked
up in the streets of Mai ton half dead with
cold and hunger. Vast numbers of crows
and other birds are found dead. The
works on the Rosedale railway, now in
course of formation, have been entirely
•suspended, and the laborers reduced togreui
distress. Forty of these men were driven
from the works to seek shelter at the Esk
litt Huts, on the bleak moors, where it
seems they were snown over and could not
escape. Their continued absence caused a
search party to set of! over the moors, and
by dint of great labor a passage was made
to the huts, where, on the door being open
ed, the poor fellows were found in a verv
exhausted condition. They had been pris
oners for two days and nights, and had eat
en their last provisions and used their last
fuel.'
Salting Wheat in the Mow.
W P. Cooper, of Lancaster, I'a., in an
essay on cutting and harvesting grain, pub
lished in the Farmer and Gardener says in
storing wheat in the mow, he commences
on one side, places the sheaves in regular
layers, with the butts outside, tranipiug
heavily on the butt of each as it is laid down.
The next layer is placed with the tops lap
ping about halfway over the first, care bc
iug taken to keep the heads or topis upper
most. When the entire space of the mow
is covered in this way, common ground salt
is sprinkled over the mow on the top of the
layer, at the rate of four quarts to every
twenty dozen sheaves of wheat—large pro
portion of salt if the sheaves are very lariie.
During the sweating, the salt is dissolved
and absorbed by the grain and straw. The
effect of this practice has been to make
the grain brighter, and bring two or three
cents more per bushel than that which was
not salted. Millers say the yield of flour
is larger and whiter. Cattle eat the straw
freely. It is a most effectual remedy against
the barn weevil. Experience has proved
t his to be a fact.
