The Progress of life.
Men rejoice when the suh is risen;
they rejoicb also when'it' goes down,
while they are upionscions of the de

on-seeing the face of a-new season, as
at the arrival of one greatly desired.-^-
Nevertheless, revolution of seasons is
the decay of human life. Fragments of
drift- woo'd meeting in the wide ocean
continue together n 'little space; thus
pareflts, wives, relatives, friends, and
riches remain with us for a short time,

Some years ago, a friend of ours in

who had ft kind word for everybody.;
and his kind words ’were evidently,,
considered compliments, though spo

words that dropped from him, he was

a- Christian. Our friend wondered
who be could be, and all the-more as
the unknown, with the .most polite
attention, gave a poor servant-girl
some'information which she desired
about a house she had. been told to
call at. Who could this lovable, yet

A joint company of men of wealth
and enterprise, on both sides the At-
l.-rntic have engaged to complete a
submarine telegraph between this
country and Europe by the beginning
of 1858. The European company will
iay the wires from the coast of Ireland
to Newfoundland, 1,700 miles in length;
from which place-tlie American compa

1.200 miles. The cable, a bundle of
six telegrajrbie wires, weighing eight
tons to the mile, which will require
several steamers to convey it, will be
sunk in the comparatively shoal water
covering a sandy plain extending from
New Ibundland to within 200 miles of
the west of Ireland. Littledifficulty is
apprehended in laying the wires, and
when once sunk the cable will remain
forever in its.place. A party of en-
geneers, scientific,* and literarv gentle
men have sailed from New York for
the purpose of laying the cable across
th6 ci u If ot St. Lawrence, between the
south-western point of Newfoundland
and Cape Breton. The cable consists
of one coil 74 miles long, and weighing
400 tons.
