Synopsli of a Leottiro by Itov. P. S. Knioht, at tho Congregational Church, Balem, on Sunday ovonlng, Doo, 23, 1877. Dan. 12:4. "Many shall run to and fro, and knowlodgo shall bo Increased." IT this projiiooy polnti lo any particular age, wo may nafely say that wo llvo In tho beginning, If not In tho midst, of thai ago. Men have migrated In all agos wholo tribes, wholo nations. IJut travellor,oven n century bock, woro comparatively raro. Now they aro on all tho highways of the world. Thousands or Americans visit Kuropo ovory year, and thousands of KiiroponnN, Atnorlca. Tho wldo Atlantic, which the May Flowor was months In cross ing, scorns but a narrow strait now, and tho ships that run from Boston and Now "York to Paris, Hamburg and Liverpool aroliko tho Uobokon and Fast Boston forries, only tholr tlmo Is eight daya instead or olght minutes. Our own country has done a groat deal to atlmulate and holp on this traveling mania. Tho Improvements of tbo last quarter of a century hayo boen brought strikingly to my mind by tho oxperlonoM of tho last two months. I havo In my possession a boy'a Journal, kept on "Tho Plains" In the summer of 1853. Itn first entry is dated Van Buren county, Iowa, April Oth; Its last, North Bank Columbia Hlvor, Oct. 23d, more than six months apart. It Is very poorly written, and contains much bad spoiling and bad grammar. It Is not a romance, but an actual statement of facts. It gives occasional glimpses of a man of lorty-Hvo with a wife and sovon children, two hired mon, throo ox wagons, a fow horsos and loose cattle. Thoy are on a Journoy towards tho sotting sun. They movo irom uvo to iwauiynvu uiiiun j; Thoy struggle for ono month with tho "April showers," muddy roads and swollen streams of Iowu. They cross the Missouri on a Hut boat mid camp ono night on tho MTK 01' OMAHA, With civilization behind thorn and the desort boforo. For anothor month thoy battle with storms and swollon streams. Then tho hot sands burn their foot, thoy aro choked with dust, and tho deceitful mirage makes trio doort thirst moro hard to bear. They aro rolled by pitiless hailstorms. Florco lightnings shamo tho glaro or their lllckorlng camp tiros. Thoy toll through tho gorges or tho lllaok Hills mid tho pusses or tho Kooky Mountains. Tho alkali wa ters destroy tholrcattlo, but they push on with broken learns. Havagos threaten, but thnv travel by day and watch with trusty rllles through tho night. Sago brush Is their fuol, bacon and bread tholr food. Hhoes aro worn out, garments aro In tatters. Hands are hardened, and faces aro sun burnt. But thoro Is no rest till tho sago plains aro loft bohlnd till tbollluo Moun tains, with tholr welcomo forests, aro mas tered till the yalloy of tbo Umatilla Is tru-versod-tlll tho Cascados. with tholr rough steeps and swampy summits, aroovoroomo till the Barlow road, and Laurel Hill, and the "Devil's Backbond" aro only disagrooa bio inetnorlos, and tbo cattle aro pasturing on rich grasses, wbllo thoso whoso faithful sorvants thoy havo boon aro replacing thoir worn out tent with n log cabin, throe thou sand mllos and moro from tho placoof tholr birth, on tho bank of tbo grtndost rlvor lu North Amorlca. Then there is rest-that kind of rest that mon got whoso swinging axos oloar out farms and build homos lu tho wilderness. A QUATlTltn OF A CKNTUnT Has passed.
