SADNEss.-There is a mysterious
feeling that frequently passes like a
cloud over the spirits. II comes on the
soul in the social circle, in the calm and
silent retreats Of solitude. Its powers
alike supreme over the weak and iron
hearted. At one time it was caused
by the fitting ola single thought across
the mind. Again, sound will come
booming across the ocean Of memory,
gloom and solemn as the death kneel,
overshadowing all the bright hopes
and sunny feelings Of the heart. Who
can describe it, and yet who has not
felt its whitening influence? Still it is
a delicious sort Of sorrow; and like a
cloud d,mming the sunshine Of river,
although causing a momentary shade
it enhances the beauty OF
returning brightness.

change Of apparel in his hat; late
member of the Massachusetts, Legisla-
turc, who represented town not more
than twenty miles from Boston, always
carried his dinnern his hat; and We
have seldom seenthe hat Of an Editors,
which was not stuffed with damp new
spapers, stolen paragraphs, and answer
ed duns! Hence, editors are always
round shouldered.
The change which has lately been
effected in the shape Of the hat, has
been loudly complained Of as its redu-
ced dimensions puts the wearers to
much inconvience. A hat Of the most
approved modem style, will contain
but little else than pocket haDdker-
chief a pair ofgoves, and a few cigars.
But We hope this change in fashion,
will produce a corresponding change
in the perpendicu!arity Of certain indi-
viduals; and that those persons who
hang down Their heads while wearing
a bell-crowned hat, will soon strut a
bout as stiff and upright as a platoon Of
well drilled sOdiers.--LozDeH Journal.

HUnAN LIFE.--lt is good to acquaint
ourselves with the thoughts Of others,
bat it is better to think ourselves.
Reflection upon what has been and
now is, constitutes the chief source Of
knowledge. That we pause occasion
ally in the outward course Of our pill
grimage, trace effects to their causes,
examine existieng circumstances, and
anticipate their probable results, is
both pleasing and profitable, and at.
tended with the happiest consequences.
Times Of reflection, or sober thought,
of tim;d anticipation Of the future, are
incident to our nature--are common
to all: they will fit across the mind in
spite Of the sallies Of youth, the gayety
'of company, and the fashions Of the
world. The turning Of these seasons
to profitable account, is the Parent Of
wisdom. If rightly improved they
produce "a salutary action upon the
mind, and leave an impression As du.
rable as the spirit that receives it,
Without such mental exercise, no man
bco ONES wise or inhuential-no man
acquires a permanent character for
maturity ofjudgment or knowledge Of
human nature. Sterling worth aud a
mind are the results OF
patient and continued observation upon
the ways Of men. Omit them, and We
glide along with the current Of the
times. mere passive beings dependent
upon capricious fortune and incidental
circumstances for what shall form our
character and shape our conduct to-
morrow. We learn wisdom from ex-
perience and reflection combined, and
in addition to our own, the history Of
others stands forth in bold relief, a fer
tile source from which to reap instruc-
ton, and by which to regulate the econ
|omy Of living.
