THOUGHTS ON A NEW YEAR'S DAY.—HOW
painful is it to reflect on the breaches which the de-
r parted year has made in the friendly, if not in the family
circle He must have a limited number of friends,
indeed, who can say he has lost none of them during
the year which has followed its predecessors into the
eternity that is past. If there should be a few hermits
or misanthropes in the world who have no friends to
lose, there are thousands and tens of thousands of
others, from whom, during the lapse of the past twelve
months, many of those they affectionately regarded.
have been snatched away by the hand of death. And
what can more deeply wound the susceptible heart, than
the loss of those it highly prized, and with whom it held
delightful companionship ? Nothing surely. The an-
nals of human nature furnish us with countless instances
of individuals whose minds were so powerfully affected
at their separation by death from those they loved,
that they did not long survive the shock, but fol-
lowed them in a few months, in sonic cases in a
few weeks, to the mansions of immortality. And it
were strange indeed if man, with all his rationality
and all his lolly conceptions of what he ought
to 1)', did not feel acutely while ruminating oil the
departure to another world of those he loved and
esteemed in the present, when the more savage of the
brute creation set him the example. The instances of
innumerable in which the lower animals, of almost evert
species, suffer so severely when deprived of their off-
spring, or when separated from others of their kind
with which they were wont to associate, as to die very
soon thereafter under the influence of feelings similar to
those which break the human heart. A
melanclolY
recollection of those departed ones whom we once
numbered among our friends, will frequently obtrude
itself on the minds of those addicted to habits of retie':
tion, and possessing in their boss,m a drop of the milk of
human kindness ; but the commencement of a new
year is a season peculiarly adapted, for many reasons. I
for feeling those melancholy emotions with peculiar
force.—Walks and Wanderings in the World of Litera-
