THE LUTHERAN VISITOR, COLUMBIA, S. C., WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 20, 1800. Poetry. Beyond the Sunset. Shadows o’er tbo ralo are creeping, And tho son sinks to his rest; ' Twilight draws her curtains sofUy, Golden clpuds aang tath© west. 1luaheU the noise oflxny labor; Tvu iim sought ita srontoU "Whimpering trees and murmuring stream Sweetly soothe each troubled breast. Tttno is (looting, and I’m drawing Near tho sunset of my life ; Soon will end my weary journey. Soon will cease all toil and strife. Shadows o’er my path are failing, Earthly visions lade away; • Voices, soft and street, are telling Of an endless, orient day. O’er the misty mountains hastens Ono I’vo waited long to see; Soft m night down Ml on mendon-*, His kind bidding, "como to me;" • Lo 1 the purple light of evening, . Stealing gently up tho sky, Bears me on its wings to meet him. Is this death ?—’tis sweet to die! Jesus calls me. and I’m going Where the shadows never come; Now tlio desert lies behind me; And I hasten to my homo— To my homo beyond the sunset. Par beyond,the day’s decline. Where the glory is^unikding. Where the golden portals shine. The Family. PARENTS. Making Borne Happy. Among the prominent evils of tho (tire is that of allowing boys to spend their evenings away from the family circ’o. The-great doty of parents is to make homo not only' the nnrsery of piely v but cheerful and-pleasant. To guard children from the con taminating influences of evil noeiely, parents and guardians should see that they are supplied with si.mo Cheerful entertainment at home. They should give them an opportu nity of improving their minds by gaining useful knowledge, and fur nish them with book*, the expense of which would be far less than to pro vide them with funds fur amusements away from home. If parents do their whole duty in interesting their children during the evenings,, they may hope it will'pre vent them from aseociating with the vile and abandoned, and with proper treatment they will have no disposi tion to wander from home. Many youths of good natural abilities havo been ruined by substituting the street and places of poblio resort for the family fireside. The habits of tho boy will cling to the man. His standing and useful ness in life will depend upon the training received under the domestic roof. Thousands of boys, who other wise, by the mercy’of Christ, and Hasting in Him, would have inscribed their names upon tho roll of immor tality, have beon ruined by unhappy homes, Or tbo want of a cheorful domestic circle. Youth is fond of pleasure, and if deprived of it at home, naturally goes elsewhere to seek it. YOUTH. Take then, iheso men as models of imitation, make them yoer examples in virtue, industry and learning, and whon you have gone to your roward, it mny he said of you, mn Dr D ch- mnn says of Humboldt, on the occa ►inn re (erred to: “Wo delight to iruee tho 1,1st,,ry of a crest mind. who el imbed f*»r beyo»»«i the foot p* l*tt» which hi*. protlcc«**i*orf* b»«l left, and, from this mill ominenct*, listened to tho harmony of tho unlror*e, and repealed its nmsiu to a listening world.” CHILDREN. My .Young Friends: Nothing affords me greater pleaeuro than to contribute my influence, however little it may be, to encourage our yofatbfuj readers to noble und holy aspirations. Theiie is no question about it tbal the good are only hnppy—that the young who walkjn virtue’s path are loved and reepeeted. Therefore, we feel that we can engage in no moie laudable undertaking than to take, as it were, our youth by tbe band, and felp them eately across tbe pit-falls - and quick sands of trial and danger over which they Wive to pass. “He who would bo eminent must preserve his mind pure and elevated, and free from all irregularities, and indulgence in licentiousness.” So speaks ono who has become eminent in scientific attainments and Christian excellence, tbe venerable Dr. Bachman of Char leston. Tbe remark quoted from him is a part of a eulogy passed on the great Humboldt, at a recent Festival held in- honor of this distinguished man in the city of Charleston. And whether wo take the life of him who spoke it, or of him, in whoso praise, it teas spoken, we have a strik ing exemplification of its truth. Dr Bachman, had he devoted his whole life to science, as did Humboldt, would have been, if not his superior, nothing less than his equal. But, though eminent now among men oi science, Lis best energies were spent in the work of preaching Christ, both io tbe pulpit and from bouse to house, fur more Ilian a half a century. Hut think you, degr youth, be would have risen to such eminence and use fulness, had bis mind and life not been preserved pure, when in the formative period of youth, through which you aro now puasing? By no means. Neither would Alexander Von Hnmboldt have beoome so world renowned.as a student of nature, nor lived to tbe great age of ninety years, had he not been pure and temperate through bis whole life. A Story far Children. THE BRIQItT RAZOR. Freddie sat ant'd his treasures. Theio was tho steamboat, without any steam on, yet moving last along the carpet, llero llie gay ea-riag* and beautiful ladies, and driver with uplifted whip and sp riled looking, but very btlky horses. A litile fur ther on, the engine with ila long iruin of cars, till of the track, yet conductor, engineer, and passengers seeming uninjured, and wailing in most Micuwhar patience Beside it a!nod the ruins of what but a few minutes before hnd been a ‘‘tinese padodo,” and just as perfect a speci men of Chinese mbit'cure as any li tie four year old ever elected Mat bles loo and dominoes were scat tered about in profusion and ocnlusinn while his sister’s doll, « h > must have been a near relative of the Kentucky giantess, as she wst a head taller than the engine, with high lifting ateps stalked smid these marvels of art, before which nature retire* sbaahed. But the bright sunlight fell npon end was thrown beck by the sharp, polished rta >r lying on the bureau; and Freddie's blue eyes, caught and dazzled by tbo brightness, no longer saw any beauty in hta surroundings, but leaving all that a wise love had lavished upon him, all that had given him an innocent pleasure so many hour*, be followed the attracting glimmer to the bureau, stretched his little form to ila fullest height, reach ed out its ticy arm, rai-ed himself on tip-tne, but in vain. A wiau and loving parent had placed it beyond his grssp. ••Me* wants him.” '■That sharp rasnr will cut Freddie, uad therefore papa put it way sp lltore. Come, here yon have every thing that you can want, much more than you can play with. Come, dar ling, play with tbeae things that you can do no harm." “Mo wants him.” “It will cut Freddie,” was the reply. “Me wants to lot.” “But Freddie mustn't cut.” “Freddie must lot.” “No, Freddie, no.” And Freddiu threw him«clf upon the floor ai d cried with his utmost strength. “Freddio should be poniehed, should be made to trust his paroi t«, to un derstand that they know what is best and do what is right,” yoa ssy, and yon ssy truly. But happy are ws who are older, if, io judging tbo child, we condemn not onrselven. Has not God surrounded os with all needed things ? Are not bis mer cies manifold, our blessings oounllese and do we never turn thankless, heed- Joes away, to stretch with onr utmost effort for some bright psaor lie in love has placed beyond our reach f Do we never trust our judgment end distiust ilia; never seek, and weep becuuse we find not; never ask, and murmur because we receive not; never question his decisions, nsver challenge his providences, nevor doubt bis love, because we cannot touch the glittering blade? Thankful, then, oh how in'ensely that kful, should we be that we have a Father, who knows what is best for us, who will withhold what would destroy us, who will punish ns when ungrateful and disobedient, and wIm. will not permit us blindly to shot against ourselves the very gate* of heaven. Let as look up in grateful love when tbe needed rod falls upon us — Child's Paper.

VI. the rACtmo railroad. Saw Fbawcibco, Catlfori la, 1 August 21, 1800 f We havo at length traversed tbr whole line t-f the Pacific Railroad, without tho slightest misodvvnlaie, without tho lose of an hour in the wholo seven days’ travel, ami with less fatigue sml more real eoixfoil 'than we have ever eX|teilmced on any estendid railroad journey in Ibe Eastern Siau s. Befnre luavinghome, the ii q-tiry was often made, “Ate you nut slruid In gn over such a long road, j-ist built through the wilder- neesf” and all manner nfapprehrn»loi a were suggested, as If no one had ever passed alive over the truth, wher, aa ■ be most of it had been built or e. two aid three ycatu, and all had been in running order f r eeveral months, and had been in aseets-lel ojieraiinn without any aerioua acci dent. With this knowledge I felt much more willing to (rust rajaelf and mi* e on the Pacific ttailroed ihun on many of i.ur eastern roads, where collisions end laiel accidents of every kind are tho order «f the day, though not put down on the time table. We cants through to the Pam fit Ocean, on eobcdule lime, mreting every *lr*in el the proper station, at the very mir ate. Daring the two days tbal we spent at Lsr». mie City, my window nl the hotel opened epon the track, Sid I observed that eevry train that passed wan up to the time precisely, although haring rua from three in five days from either end i f the route. This Could be said of lew roads of a hundred miles in length. Tbo condition of iba trui k far exceeded my anticipations. I did not make any excavations to see how tbe road was built; my observations were confined In ila auccssntal car nage of Ibu trains ; but 1 have never pass d over any road in the country with less of j irring and j“R'»g, and of that pei uliar swing which nukes travel upon torturous roads ao an com - fort able. My views of the imports Cv> of ibis road to the country and to the greet interest of the world have b- en en larged by coming over it, and by all I have seen and learned here on I hr way. I think the value of tbo read as an immediate channel of commerce bee been over-cniintaied. No railroad, nor all the railroad* in tbe world, can carry on the commerce of the world. They a>e limited is capacity, very limited, end a great passenger route can never become a great chan net lor the transportation of freight. This is especially true of a single Ira: k road, and mpre especially true of a road of each immense length as the Pacific, on which paa*enger trains are liable to be detained end must have tbo precedence over freight, ft will be as impossible to carry on the commerce of the world oeer one or more rai road track* a* to carry On tbe entire eorr.uponilcnc* o r the world over a single telegraph wire. Tbe passenger business of the Pacific Road must nearly, if nut altogether, absorb its capacity of locomotion; but its vast importance, even In a commercial point of view, will be enhanced rather than diminished by thia result. It is to be the great medium of commuoiealion between tbo different part* of lb* World ; and while aotual commerce—tho Iranspor tation of lb* products of the earth and uf the skill of different nations— must have a channel of greater ca pacity, the commercial intercourse of the world will receive, from the completion of Ibis great work, n slim ulhs which him never been fully estimated, and tjte value of the rood to ils enterprising proprietors, as well as 10 the world at large, will be in creased instead o! being diminished. In my opinion the grand enter prise of the cen'.uiy—one in oompar. iaon with which the Pacific Railroad, tbe Sun Canal, and all other woika now completod or in pnii>rtM twill be small affairs—is the ShipCanul actors the Isthmus of Pansma. Commerce must havo water for ila channtl; it must.have a channel of each capacity that There will be no occasion lor breaking up cargoes; and the nearest approach to a natural union ol the two oceans will be a canal of sufficient depth snd breadth to allow tbe largest ordinary steamer: and sailing vessels to pass thrnngh without irons ship ment of goods. Il baa been to mo a matter of surpriso that our Goverr. ment and our capitalists have uul ;a ken bold of this gteal scheme with more determination to have il carriid threugb to completion. I know many of tbo difficulties which lio in the way, intei national and economical; but it is an enterprise of such vast i report an oo to tbe country and to tho world, that it oagkt to be begun and completed at one*. A very important adjunct to ike Pact la Railroad (indeed It ep0eera now to be indispeneaWe lo the full e> jot ment of lie Wdvealugea) hi the enterprise of Ur. Pullman In the in vention and perfection *1 hie palace sera. 1 bad an Pentium Mill Million either of tbe magniiildeof lhi« pan of the equipment ri the grand route, or of ibu amount of comfort whioh R affords the traveler. I learned from the Secretary of ibe company, Mr Charlea W. Angell, that two Compa nies, of which Mr. Pullman la the head, hsve Invested a" ae'ual capital ••f fi .760 000. wbieb •* paying a Urge profit, noiwitbs aading the immense expense of the care, owing lo tbrlr shbaianiial construction. Many of Ihe cars cost »1?SW rath, and this expense ia not laid out in ornament, but <n miltirg the cars evnyibing thst they can be made In strength and utility. Each ear U a |«arbT, heauti’ully fitted up with every ap pliance for the comfort of the |«****“ get ; they are thoroughly emulated and provided with double a it does a* a prolotion againel dust; at night they are luxmiov* sleeping rooms, with wide beds; each car ban a con ductor and a porter or waiirr, who are selected with Uriel regard to character, and their duty is d**Ol* themselves in every way lo the com fort of the passenger*, and at all atop, ping places or change* lo aid I bra in everyway. When tbe arrangements which are now contemplated are com pUted, a lady may leave New Yotk under the ears of a conductor and. with only one change before reach ing San Frmneieon, be sure «f ever) protection and attention wbteS abe may require on the way. Or a child may be sent ihrquth with tbe a**ur- a> ee of its being eo4ltin«ly wa'ehed over on tho Way. An l ist of tbe rXj *nae, or rather Cf the nhrapnme of thia luxury of iravol, may bu gained front the statement* of the Secretary, that the t'om|'*ny propone, aa*>>n a* they enn • omplete Ibe nrrangrm-nl with the diffeiunt line* on the wav. to send n car from New Yw k to the Pa-ifie, and tha reverse, ia whieh any 'person m ty have a particular •eat and berth -rear* I for tbe entirn distance, for an addition to the re-- alar fate on tb* road of only 124 An It is, | aln uld a* soon think of Imvelnng over the Pacific Hoad in n freight earn* not taking the Pullman cam. Il is a great lux try, hut an indtsperaabie net-entity. An invalid may travel from Ocean to ocean In one with almost an much earn a* ia staying at home. I may add that Mr. Pullman, nbotu a gentleman ot la*go wealth, ha* gone into tbi* enterprise with all the taste ami enthusiasm of an artist, and that be has spared no expense or peioa io the perfection of the ac.-ommodation. After my Inal letter from Salt Lake •ity, we came on by the Central Pacific Komi, the Western half of the great thoroughfare, —not the halt in distance, bet more than Urn half in the boldnnna and maguiiadeof the undertaking. It crunst the Sierra Nevada Mountain*, in which the scenery in far grander than on any other portion of ibe route. At more than one point we looked out of the car window down the precipitoe* aidt-a of the monnlnin 1600 feet, as I learned from one of the Director* of the road who wss nor fellow-trav eller.
