necessary for me to take wife but though my ex-

be kept alive?" i" Most assuredy - "Well then,
my wife will not ve she will not eat, or drink, or

carry nothing out OF it,, and the aims OF man. which
solely relate to this life, must expire with its termina
ton. But there are virtues which can be cultivated
that will bloom with increased beauty in another ex-
stence, and under brighter skies: and there hab-
its Of eeng-hobits of holiness and purity Of life,
which the parayzing touch Of death cannot destroy.
In fact, these the only treasures which man can
bear with him beyond the grave because they be-
part of himself, and identified with his very
isence. How false and imperfect those views of
Christian morality which induce us to imagine that
in another world perfection of character is to be
perienced, while in the present the foundation is ne
elected Surely here the seeds must be sown-here
the basis of the future building be laid, and all that
the shall be in the world to come will be the con-
tinuaton and expansion Of what lie is in the present
For death, however mysteriolsly il work on the
body, has alchemic power over the SOUL to change
IDS purposes, its habits, its identity, by any instanane-
Gus or magic effect Tine vestments drop, but the re-
al continues, and travels along in his with
perpetualy increasing improvement in those moral
feelings which here constitute his very being and life
How sad and mournfu therefore will be the sensa-
tions of those, who, they approach the close of
their earthly pilgrimage, can look back only the
neglect of those advantages which we're placed in
their power to improve their characters and cnnoble
their spirits-wo rested perhaps on the outward OBJ
servance of few forms, without rejecting that these
merely means and not ends--that they were
shadows and appearances of virtue, and left the heart
deficient of that solid wealth which remains undimin-
ished amidst the devastations Of time
Let him, therefore, who aims at the true dignity of
the human character, like the noble Roman who said
Il cannot be unequal to the task to which Cesar
thinks equal" call into requisiton all his energy
to aid him in his moral improvements and thus lay up
those treasures Of pure principles and motives and
feelings, which, becoming Incorporated with his very
soul, shall know no separation or diminuton in the
hour of death.

cannot be unequal to the task to which Cesar thinks
equal
Can it be diffidence or languor which restraints
nv from the exercise of those talents, with which tica
ven has gifted them There is surely difference in
the physical and moral energy of people in this world
Of VARIETY Or on what principles we account
for the total apathy with which some appeals are re-
ceived Men are actuated by various impulses and
there il some truth in the opinion, that Life is for
ced state." Some are driven by necessity to devote
their whole lives TO supply their physical wants. and
Others whose physical demands are all gratiiied by
the activity and success of their ancestors, still toll
for wealth, merely for the abstract pleasure of gGia-
ing. How few there are, who toll for the riches OF
mint! How few who enter the gardens of intellect,
to gather fruit from the trees of knowledge Men
heap up riches, which at their deaths must pass into
other hands, and know successive of owners
while they neglect to build those monuments which
shall be pcrpcually their own. An innate energy
which renders its possessor independents and distinct
from the common crowd, seems to be the lot of few
and in some cases is phenomenon of each separate
age
One of the ancient poets has finely said
9 MY mind kingdom isl
Such perfect Joy therein find,
AS far exceeds all earthly bliss,
That God Nature hath assigned.
And that man only may be termed truly rich, who
CDmmaa3s the treasures OF this vast Kingdom, and
brings them to all the purposes of lofty and
noble spirit. There are many who contented by
searching the works of others, to collect mass Of
knowcdgebut if they do not learn at the same time
to arrange these multiplied objects in order, and make
them applicable to the business of life, their labor is
vanity "Their knowledge" as is forciby remarked
by charming writer I" like corn heaped in gTana-
