ENJoyMESr OF LrFE.-How small a
norton of our life it is that we really en-
ioy. In youth we IRE looking forward to
things that are to come; IN old age we
are looking backwards to things that are
gone past; in manhood, although we APP
near indeed to be more occupied in things
that are present, yet even that is too often
absorbed in vague determination to be
vastly happy on some future day when we
have time When young we trust our
selves too much, and we trust too little
when old. Rashness is the error oI
youth, timid caution o' age Manhood Is
isthmds between the two extremes; the
ripe, the fertile season. Of action when a.
lone we can hope to find the head to con-
trive, united with the hand to execute.

THE PURsuIr OF VIRTUE.--There is
one pursuit in life which it is in the power
of ali to follow, and to attain. Ii is sub
ject to no disappointment, for every con-
test will prove victory; and this is the
pursdi. of virtue. Sincerely to aspire nj
ter virtue, is to gain her; and zealously to
labor after her wages, is to receive them.
Those that seek her early, will find her
before il is too late; her reward i, also
with her, and she will come quickly
For the breast Of good man is a little
heaven on earth, where the Deity sits en-,
