The Domenic Avrien.—Family pray er, says Cecil, may be made a vast engine of ppwer to the whole circle. It says there is a God, and inspires a reverence for his character. It proclaims a life to come, and points to the spirit land. It fixes the idea of responsibility in the mind, while it diffuses a sympathy through the soul. "It furnishes a judicious parent with an opportunity of gently glancing at faults, where direct admonition might be inexpedient." It greatly conduces to the maintenance of rani ily government and or. der, while its spiritual advantages are in valuable. When we meet with reveries, and friends fall away Prom us, our peccadillos are like birds' nests, which become more and more conspicuous as the leaves' drop off, tempt kug every passing urchin to throw a stone at them, It is remarkable that poetry, unlike oth er arts, arrives at maturity at. once.

How It's Doso at the Astor. A LIQUORARY SKETCH. IT rAIONWpDaIi• A small party of comity merchants, Wa ders. &c.. were catbMg around New York one evening, miteltg the lions, and their cicerone—by the way, "a native," who knew what was wha—took them up Broadway, and as they passed the Astor House, says one of the mangers : "Smith, what's this thunderin' big house 1" , "Oh. ah yes, this," isays the cicerone, Smith, "this. boys, is a great tavern—fine plus to get a drink." i n t "Well, be hooky. let all go in." In they want ; taki a private room , or a small side parlor , e country gents requested lihni th lo 6;oe talking, and or in the liquor. 8011 k called for a bill of fare, upon which MOM "invoiced" more "sorts," and' harder fluted wines and li- quors, than could be eisinaued to mem- cry in a week. i' "That's it," says %ilk marking a bill of fare, and handing it tsa servant. "that's it.—taro bottles, bring 'es op:" Up came the wine t pit was, of course, elegant. The countrytentsiroziassit-m. they had never tasted such stuff before, in all their born days. "Look-a-here, mister p " says one of the business men, agot any more uv that wine r' "Oy, yes, sir!" nye the servant. "Well, fetch it in.' "Two bottles, sir ?" "Two ganders ! No, bring in six bot. ties ! I can go two on 'em myself," says the country gent. The servant delivered his message at the bar, and after a few grimaces and whis pering, the servant and one of the bar-keep ers, or clerks, carried up die wine. Says the clerk, whispering to Smith, whom he slightly knew : "Smith, do you know the price of this wine 1" "Certainly I do," ea* Smith ; here it is invoiced on the catalclius, ain't it 1" "Oh, very well," says the clerk about to withdraw. '"Hold on !" says one tithe merry coun try gents, "don't snake, your handsome countenance off so quick :_do yer want us to fork rite up for these tanks f" hauling out his wallet. "No yer don't," says another, hauling out his change. "My treat, if you please, boys," says the third. pulling out a handful of small change, "I asked the, party in, and I pay for what liquor we drink&be thunder!" In the midst of their suittiustesni, the clerk observed it was of no importance just then—the bill would be presented when they got through. This was satis , factory, and the party went on finishing their wine, smoking. &c. "'Spoils we have some rale champaigne, boys," says one of the gents, beginning to feel his oats some. "Agreed," says the rest. Two bottles of the best "sham" in "the tavern" were called for, and which the party drank with great gusto, "Now," says oue of. them. "let's go to the theatre, or someplace where there's a show loin' on. Here you mister"--to the t—"go fetch in the landlord." "The landlord, sir I" says Pat, the ser vant, in some doubt as to the meaning of the phrase. "AV, landlord—or that chap that was in here just now, tell him to fetch in the bill. Ah, here you are, old feller ; well, what's the damages 1" uka the gent. so ambitious in putting the party through, and hauling out * handful of keys, silver and coppers to do it with. *•Eight bottles of that old fiim.flani.di rip-raP," pronouncing one of those fancy gamboge tides, found upon an Astor house catalogue, "ninery-sfx dollars--" "What I" gasped the country chap. gathering up his small change, thaPhe had began to sort out on the table. "And two bottles of •Bchrider.' and et pre--seven dollars," coolly continued the bar clerk ; moue hundred and three dol lars." "4 hundred and three thunder and—" "A NONDIteD AND TWIRL DOLLARS I" cried the country gents, in one breath, all starting to their feet and putting on their hats. "The clerk explained It, clear u mud ; the trio "spudged up" the amount, looked very sober, and walked out. "Come, boys," says Smith, "let's go to the theatie." "Gueu not," say, the boys ; "Whose we'll go home for to-night, Mr. Smith." And they made for their lodgings. It these country gents were asked when they got home, any particular, about thc elephant, they'd probably hint something about getting a glimpe of him at the Astor House. &JUNO UfaDia Watim.—The Paris Journal des Deimos states that a new spa. inns grease!, destined • it is expected, to solve tha great problem of sub-marine nay. gation, has been constructed in the eats!). lislmmt,of M.Prensot.

A VISIT TO THS MIMIC/1N CATIOCORAL —A correspondent of the Washington U nion, writing from the city of Mexico lays : "One day last week I •pent a whole morning (six hours) in the Cathedral and its treasures. By special favor they show. ed us every thing, among others the cus todian, in which the consecrated host is ex posed on certain occasions. It cost $2OO, 000, but is worth $500,000 ; and you will not wonder at this when I inform you that it is full four feet high, made of solid gold, and studded with precious stones. The pe destal is a foot and a hall square, inlaid with diamonds, and rubbles. At each corper is the golden figure of an angel, exquisitely carved. Around his waist and neck are strings of the finest pearls. His wings are inlaid or covered with diamonds, rubies, and emeralds. In his right hand he holds ■h of wheat, made of yellow topaz ; 1 in his left bunches of grapes made of ame thytis. The shall is also studded with diamonds and rubies. The upper part, I containing the host, is made to represent the sun, and is a foot and a half in °imam* &reline ; the rays that emanate on one side are made entirely of diamonds of the first water, beginning with some of large size and grad ually tapering off. The cross that surrounds the top is also on this side made of diamonds. and Se superb. On the other side, both the cross and the rays are of the most beautiful emeralds—perhaps larger than the diamonds." Monson' Mass or Pena Corm.— We stated a day or two since that the cliff mine on Lake Superior had more copper uncovered than could be got out by the present force in three years. We have since ascertained the dimensions of one single sheet which they are at present working on, which presents the following almost incredible dimensions: forty feet long, eighteen feet high, and from six in. Ghee to three feet thick. It probably weighs three hundred tuns, and the miners have not yet reached either end or top of the sheet. It may possibly be two or three times as large as has yet been devel oped. The public at large are entirely M the dark in regard to the richness of the Lake Superior mineral distriets.—N. Y. Tribune.

The Danvill Democrat gives the follow ing parlilOilap of an occurrence which was briefly noticed - in our last: On Sunday afternoon last, [April 11 the new Methodist Church in this place was struck by lightning, while the e.ongre gation was assembled, and kneeling in _prayer immediately previous to the Lorre supper. The electric fluid struck the steeple and separated in two currents after resetting the main building, one pluming along a rafter to the outer wall in front of the building and discharging itself into the ground near the entrance door, part of which teas scattered and torn—the other entering the ceiling and passing along the iron lamp rod into the midst of the congre gation, and from thence along the floor rafter to the stone wall on the Eastern side of the church, where it entered the ground, knocking off a considerable portion of the plastering in the basement story, and tear. ing up several pews and a portion of the floor in the church itself. The scene Which followed can better be imagined than described. The shrieks of the wom en, the groans of the dying. the horrorand Consternation of the men, the scattering and stacking of the falling timbers, the vivid and fiery appearance of the fluid be wildering the senses, the sulphurous smoke diffused throughout the house—formed a scene altogether above our powers of des eription. Mrs. George Peneyl, a highly respec table lady, was killed almost instantly, and expired a few minutes afterwards in the arms of the minister. Miss Valiant., a sister of Mrs. Pansy!. war badly injured—her bonet torn into shreds, and her clothes burnt and torn in to fragments. Mist Mary James. a domestic living with Mr, Jahn Best, was badly injured, and is still lying in a critical situation. Mn.l Ana Harris, Mrs. Finds, three daughters of Mrs. Jos. Diehl. Mrs. Ken drick, Miss Betsy Reel, John Logan and a large number of other person, are more M.' less badly burnt, although not, seriously injured. A young man by the name of Jefferson Jones;' who was just entering the doer, was strut* by the fluid and injured by the falling timbers—he is still lying very although there is a prospect of his reitavr sty. • Other persons were stunned---mtme .portions of their elothee torn maunder s ' their shoes and stookinp burnt. and were otherwise more or less affected by the ate ;, palling stroke. • • The church is new and beautiful fietotrimfed last year about 'OW Isifir , ilk lfeight to thertop of the steeple, end out a lightning rod.
