What reliance can bare-faced piece of meanness, }ying and vilin life, as most men do now-a-days, actuated by the desire to obtain what are known as “the objects of a noble ambition,” and for their attainment he sacrificed every simple and substantial pleasure that, day by day, passed by within his reach, unheeded. He lived in the future, and struggied for wealth and fame which he expected, some day, to enjoy. He spent the best days of his life in making great works and building houses, and pianting vineyards, and gathering silver and gold, and the peculiar treasures of kings, and in getting “great possessions of great and small cattle above all that were in Jerusalem before him.” And after having, in a great measure, attained what is generally considered most valuable in the world, and being the wisest of the race, he finally settled down tothe conclusion that the best thing a man can do, is to “eat, drink and be merry.” Epicurus, also, one of the most clear-headed of the ancient scholars, established a school of philosophy founded upon the principle that we should extract the utmost possible good out of life, as we travel along its path. “The rest of mankind” seem ashamed to acknowledge any interest in present enjoyments, but talk gravely about preperations for some future day—which never comes. Man is distinguished from the animals by having a Past anda Future, as well as a Present; andthe evident intention of his Creaior was, that the two former should be subservient to the latter—not that the latter should be entirely sacrified to the former. But most men live wholly in the past and future and utterly ignore the present. They are either continually mourning over some blunder or misfortune that has long since gone by, but which memory keeps alive in their minds; or else, they are fretting any sweating about some glittering but illusive scheme which hope tells them may be consummated in the days that are to come.— Thus, with their visions strained upon a distant land-mark, they are carried down the peaceful stream of present existence without seeing or enjoying one of the thousand beauties that decorate its shores. It does not follow that we should fail to profit by the lessons of the past; the object of memory is to enable us to make the most out of the circumstances by which, at each moment, we find ourselves surrounded. It does not follow that, in regulating our conduct to-day, we should ignore its effect upon our enjoyment of to-morrow; the future may yet be the present. But the true tneory of life for every mortal is (subject, ad course, to the performance of those duties which cach man owes to his fellow) to exjract the greatest possible enjoyment out of . the present, that is consistent with a rational preparation for the future. And every man, no matter how humble his condition, who will look around him, will dis. cover that the fountain of bappiness is not a distant one, but that he passes every day, . a thousand sources of pleasure hitherto } unheeded. Say we, therefore, unto you, in the language of the motto of Hyperion: ‘“ Look not into the Past with sorrow, it comes not back again ; wisely improve the Present, it is thine ; go forth to meet the shadowy Future without fear and with amanly heart.” So mote it be. Aw Oprxton.—We learn from the St. Louis correspondent of the Sac. Union that it was rumored that Senator Bayard, of Delaware, had offered to bet $5,000 that Douglas will not be nominated at Baltimore ; $5,000 that if he is, he will not get the electoral vote of asingle State in the Union; and $10,000 that he will not be President on the 4th of March, 1861. Though openly offered it is said that this series of bets had not been Senator Bayard ought to be thor oughly posted up inthe chances of Democratic politicians, and, unless he is the wildest man that ever offered an opinion, the prospects of the champion of the muddy cause of squatterism getting both nominated and elected is very dim indeed.

REMARKABLE Recion.—A returned Washoe adventurer tells the Lxpress that he saw in the Black Rock country a vast quarry of marble, a large bed of mica, and “a mountain which resembled a huge mass of petrified sponge,” resting upon a sub-stratum of . slate, and apparently of volcanic origin.— Returne Washocites are full of wonderful stories. jut then Washoe is full of wonders, and this iast tail of a mountain of lava is doubtless, literally true. The whole of Westera Utah abounds in minerai springs, scori, lava and other unmistakable evideneens of extensive volcanic action; and it will be remembered that the earthquake . which shook ail California last spring, was more severely felt east of the Sierra Nevada, particularly toward the Black Rock country. The description given of the above mountain, ‘‘ which resembleda huge mass of petrificd sponge,” strikes us as being quite truthful. The surface of the level country between the eastern base of the Sierra Ne vada and the range of hills lying beyond, in which range are all the rich silver leads, is strewn for many miles with cobblers and boulders of pumice, of a dark umber color, which might not inaptly be described as petrified sponge. Most of these are rounded by the action of water, and the level surfaces where they lie are covered with cobble stones and sand as if the waves of an inland lake had been withdrawn but a little while. Some masses of volcanic rock that we saw when in Washoe last year, looked large wie a 1s ees = In accordance with the provisions of an act of the Legislature, entitled “ an act to supply the .
