HOME

Let no man ever think of happiness distinct from
the happiness of his home. The gayest must have
their languid, sick and solitary hours The busiest
must often relax their labor and there must be
retreat for them where they may seek refreshment
from their and collect the spirits that disap-
pointments so frequently depress. They who live
the most for the public still live for the public but in
small part, and they apt to find the public ser
vice heavy burthen, which gentler encouragement
than that of ambition must furnish the strength to
support.

Tn one of his late letters from the neigh-
boring British Province Of New-Bruhs"icN'
the editor of the Portland Advertiser, thus
describes the town Of st. Johns:
st. Johns is built upon the banks OF the nv,
er St. Johns. The streets are generally ia'o
out at right angles. though some OF them are
very crooked and dirty, particularly at ork
Point. and in the Parish of Portland, where
the Cholera is now seeking many vctlnis.-
The descent is gradual toward the water.
The streets are not paved, but many OF theHi
are McAdamized-a covering which answers
very well for city IN moist climate,
where the air is kept humid by continual logs
as in St. Johns during the spring and sum
mer-but dreadful, as in Washington, where
the air is dry in the spring and summer, ana
the winds rage furiously. The streets, too
generally speaking, have good side walks
and many of the buildings are elegant ana
spacious. Judge Chpman, the Chief Judge
of the Province, an American born clllzcn,-
the son Of Refugee, has magnificent es-
tablshment.
The Court House is superb buildng,-oi
the free stone of the Province-wlth various
rooms in it intended for the various purposes
Of the city and county; the coat OF Arms Ioi
the Province is carved out and fixed up in the
court rooms; and then there is flight Of stairs
something of n curiosity, Of the same free
stone, which goes from the top to the bottom
Of the building, all supported on the principle
Of the arch! OF the two grave yards, Catholic
and Protestant, which are respectable, need

way, are very numerous. The market is vile

unsatisfed? Earth, it is true, has thou-
sand al!urements, and opens to our taste uh-
numbered sources of joy; but IN the midst o'

to crafty the soul, if the hope OF immortality
be absent. l saw man in the iuil no" oi
health-in the prime OF life-in the prosper
ity of fbusiness--blessed with one OF the most
amiable wives, and with circle OF blooming
apd beloved children. But alas he was
melancholy. This earthly prosperity he
knew must end-and he, with all that he heid
dear, must descend to the tomb, and perish.
He had no hope extending beyond the grave:
and in the midst Of worldly splendor and ap'
parent Joy, the worm of sorrow gnawed al MS
heart. His wife sickened and died. lie iol'
lowed her to the grave, and mourned without
hone. Three of his children fell. Alas for
him he had no hope of reunion. Anu
when q, last, he was stricken, he laid himself
down to die, as the beast dleth, without nope
He furnished mournful example OF the very
imp ortant truth, that without the hope OF
future life, and firm belief and trust IN the
al-wise, bengnant and ovcrrullng froVi-
dence, man is no. qualified to pass through
this world. In all the circumstances OF Ills
being, he feels the need Of hope! Tel me

THE MIND.

Oh! magic of the mind, whose might
Can make the desert heavenly iaH,
And I'll with forms divinely bright
The dreary vacancy Of air,
And speed the soul from cline to c''me'
Though stormy Oceans roar i" 'ain'
And bid the restless wheels Of Tlno
Roll backward to their goal again.
The riches that the Mind bestows,
Outshine the puppies proudest dye.
And pale the brightest gold that sIows
Beneath the indians burning SKY!
The Mind can dull the deepest SMART
And smooth the bed Of suffering.
And, midst the winter Of the heart'
Can renovate a second spring.
Then le, me JOY, whats'er betlde.
In that uncounted treasury,
Nor crieye to see the step Of prlds,
In purple tra?p"gs sweeping 0y;
Nor murmur if my fate Shut out
The gaudy worlds tumultuous DIM
He recks not of the world without,
Who feels he bears world within!
