FROM THE OLD COUCH.

A thousand things belong to every thing"
was fayorite observation with the eccentr.c
Col Vose Ii used then. however, TO ylbIaje
unnoticed on my ears; tor being a volatile
young chap, never spent a thought Oh its
purport and depth; but since | have seen Is
value and constant application, begin to think
the phrase almost Indispensable III common

When see men aking great calculations
of attaining TO certain opulence and spiendor
at future day, without having an idea that
life is ehequered scene, and that little lnsl-
dious strokes Of adverse fortune are always IL
able to intervene, and destroy their fair hopes
in an iustant--I always think thousand
things belong to every thing
One person tells ne he shs Ii reach his destl-
nation in SO long time, because he intends to
travel so far each day /; ard another tells ne
he will pay me such day, for he shall then
receive FUNDS of A. and B ;--the traveller hav-
ing made no proviso for broken leg, or the
belly-ache : nor the debtor that these funds
from A. and B. are to come from G. and ID.
who expect them from E. and F. and so on,
through the alphabet my reflections whis-
per to me-a thousand thlngs belong TO every
thing
When man SIMULTANEOUSLY tells me be is
no betting man he is prlncipled against
such coyetousness (; and trips directly into an

lars against thirty, that such a vessel will ar
rive safe IL cant help-(pardon me, gentle

tary tax on the fortunate, wherewith it rescues
from ruin thousands of the unfortunate l Say
/ cant for the soul of me help thinking OF the
eccentric Colonel, and his favorite saying.
When seea family stalk into public wor-
ship regularly when it is half over disturbing
the whole congregation IL must OF course
allow them to be regular attendants; but, as
there must be something wrong,-elther an
Indifference about the object of worship, a
disregard for the feelings of the worshlppers,
an uniform slothfulness, or all three but as
persons of sound understanding would hardly
be guilty of either, my mind is in quandary
for the cause land can extricate itself no o.
Their way than by the Colonel's positions
thousand things belong to every thing. Aye,
gentle reader; and sentence OF pith and mo-
ment it is too, s applies oftener than thou art
aware Of Shouldst thou see man as have
seen, dcyout and pious in all his walk and
conversation; Jealous for the good OF his poor
neighbors' souls, and at the same time (al-
tho getting rich AGAIN. plead the dissolution
ofthe old Bankrupt law against their honest
claims what couldss thou say The ap-
