A sorlit of irnifio torinn have visited lolli llie northern and southern tectium of the Union, A trvero linil storm nenrly devastated the New Knj land State on llio 1 St li of Augurt. The Iiail came 10 thick ai to cntiiu I It a diirknof of nlj,'lit, ami tlio runrin;; na of tli under. Ilitil stones measured len inches in circum ference! rrom riuhlecn inchest to two feet of water fill in rain, causing m arly all the imall stream to overflow, and washing ny bridge and mills' in any number. Tlio Hudson river had overflowed iU bank from Hudson to Vonkers on the 2(lih, wash lnjf away bridge and roads, doing over HOO.noOdaiiiaife the Hudson IlivcrKnil road being placed hurl tlu tomlut. In tlio vieinilr of Albany about 8000,000 worth of property was destroyed, and doing great injury to tlio canal and railroad, Iy tele graph from AHmny on the evening of tlio Slit it wni still raining, having continued for over thirty hours without inleriiiiMion Too atorm of the 10th, 1 1 tit und 12lh Align!, which vi.itcd I he vicinity of New Orleant, waa of the mol terrible character, The most disastrous i-ff.-ct wore Ml at eiimnicr rcttort, called Last Island, a short distance ahovo New Orleans, from which every bouse was suept. Two hundred persons, it is estimated, lost their lives on (his island. Grand Cuillou Isluutl, another watering place, had also stifle red severely ; tlio extent of the Ions of life was not known, but it was reported that 1 00 bodies bad boon found on one end of the island. The damages to tlio sugar, cotton nndcorn crops are said to bo almost incalculable. The banks of the river at l!tiyou Sara had caved in, carrying away three hundred resi donees. The stemsliip Nautilus went down in the gale, and it is feared that all on board have perished. The cotton crop in Louisiana lias not materially suffered, but gloomy nc counts were antiujiRteJ from Mississippi, Co.ngrkssiosal. Weext rtvet the follow ing CoHgros'K9iinl news from the Uoston J(JurH;d,of August 22di Congress adjourned on Morday (lfitli) without passing thn Army Appropriation bill, and tlio President immediately issued a proclamation ordering n new session to coinmctico yesterday, (Thursday, 21st.) Among the matters of interest to our rend er is tlio d' feut of the Pacific Kail road bill. hcamo up in the Senate, on the 1 1th Aug., when Mr. Hunter moved to lay it upon tlio table. This motion was carried by the following vote ; ' YiiAS Messrs. Bayard, R. II, of N. II., Benjamin, Brings, llriglit, Uroaillieud, Hut Icr, Biown.Clay, Dcnglas, l"Vwnlen, Fitz patriok, II.de, Houston, Ilunler, Iversoii. Mullury, Mason, IVarce, Keed, Slidell, Thompson, Ivy., Thompson, X. J., Toombs, Y ll lee. Nays Messrs. Adam, Allen, Te., Pigler, Cas, CuIIiiiiiit, Jhjdgo, Duikee, Foot, Poster, (Jeyi-r, Harlan, James, Jones, Ljivn, Jones, Tvnn., Pratt, Reliastiiui, Trum bull, Wade, Welter, Wright. The Wahing'on correspondent of the Advertiser attributes the loss of the Pacific Railroad bill to Democrats timidity, indif ference and oppositon. The Democrats are opposed to the Pacific Railroad, but know ing its popularity with the people, especial ly in California, they dare not, pending this election, avow their hostility. It is not difficult to strangle a bill in Congress with out assuming tlio responsibility ofiho act. Tlio bill increasing (ho compensation of members of Congress, passed the Senate by a vote of 20 to 13 ; and the House, 100 to 03. This bill gives members 80000 for the two sessions of each Congress, and covers the present session. The mileage is not altered, but the value of books re ceived by members is to he deducted, as well as the pay of members who ore absent except in coses of sickness. The two branches have had a strong fight over the army appropriation bills, the Republicans in the House having encum bered it will) amendments suspending all pay from the army until it is recalled from Kansas, until the persons now held for trea son ai'edischargcd,fcc.,and finally adjourn ed as we have stated above, without pass ing it. The matter w'as discnsed on Sat urday, oocupying nearly the whole time, from 11, a. M., to 4J, Sunday morning. Again it was resumed on Monday morning, and three several Confercnco Committees were appointed to briiis" (bo two House to act harmoniously on this matter, but it was jof no avail. Precisely at 12 o'clock the House, adjourned, and this act was followed by tne President's Proclamation ordering an extra session. All the other appropria tion bills were passed. All accounts agree that good order pre railed in the House during the long session of Saturday. This is attributed in great part to the fact that Speaker Banks per emptorily banished all wines and spirituous liipiors from the Capitol. Coffee was sub stituted to marked advantage. Only one member was intoxicated, and he was a Kcntuckian, who was dragged up from his slumbers occasionally to vote on any im portant question. The leading members of all political par ties gro said to have been opposed to the xtra session, preferring to let matters stand as they are. As usual, the reports of the closing hours of the session are much confused. It will be several days before we get a clear and inteligible account. IlASTruso, Conn Aug 21, 13 jo.

She could not sleep that n cin. Mie loved lilo. Mic loved tlio world, She did not wish lo leave. The word she saw in the book wu "Etkrmtv." It was n solemn word. I do hot wonder that it iiils the minds of sinner Willi fear. Yet thu pious do not huto the won). They think of it ullun. Thev love to think of it. Hut what is eternity! It is like asen which has no sin D ; a race that is never run ; a riv er that ha no spring and no mouth, yet alwuys (lows. It is Tor ever and ever. .None but Uud ful ly know what it is. We know it is uol time told by hours, duys, months, ve rs, and aires. We speak of uu eternity past, and an eternity to come. i et there aie not iwo. Jiut we so speak, because we ure at a li s for word. We u;o buck, back, back, until our minds tiro ; but we come not to any point where eternity began. 11 e go on, on, on, un til we can gnnn further, and yet there is no end. A teuclier in a blind ichool ouceguve tin sum to one of tlio boys. J Is was to work it out in his mind. " A pile of sand is ten feet wide and seven ty lung. Each erjuare solid inch contains ten thousand gruins. A bird come every thousand years and tukes away a grain. How long would it take to curry away all the sand ?" This little boy soon gave the answer, which was that it would take 12!),QUU,OUU,OUU years. What a long row of fig ures! You cannot foim an idea of sueli a sum. Now put all the sand ou the sea shore into one heap, and let a bird tultc awuy one grain every thousand years till all is gone, and yet that would not be the cud of eternity. Eternity ha no end. Some of the ancients tried to give somo idea of eter nity by drawing a circle. A circle ha no end. In that it is like eternity. Hut in no other respect. We can ineusuro nil circles. IJtit we cannot measure eternity. None but (od knows whut it is. Men's bodie may die, but shall live again. IJut their souls live on, ou, ou, forever. Nor do ungcls ever cease lo live. All angels and all men shall live as long as God lives. pica Vrnnclnco Vrtecs.
