BEAUTIFUL PASSAGE.

"Life bears us on like the current of a
mighty river. Our boat at first glides down
the narrow channel, through the playful
murmurings of the little brooks and the
windings of its grassy borders. The trees
shed their young blossoms over our young
heads: the flowers on the brink seem to
offer themselves to our young hands; we
are happy in hope, and we grasp eagerly
at the beauties around us; but the stream
hurries us on and still our hands are empty.
Our course in manhood is along wider
and deeper flood, and amid objects more
striking and magnificent. We are animated
by the moving picture Of enjoyment and
industry which passes before us, we are ex-
cited by some short-lived disappointment.
But our energy and dependence are both in
vain.
The stream bears us on; our griefs and
joys are alike left behind us; we may be
shipwrecled, but we cannot be delayed;
whether rough or smooth, the river hastens
toward its home, till the roaring of the
ocean is in our ears, and the tossing of its
waves is beneath our keel, and the lands
lessen from our eyes, and the floods are
lifted up around us, and the earth losses
sight of us, and we take our last leave OF
earth and its inhabitants, and of our future
voyages there is no witness but the Infinite
and Eternal"

Napoleon and The TtoeiUe Ap0stleS.-
The Cabinet de Lecture gives the follow

take our apostles under your protection?'-
"Your apostles! are they ofwood!" "No

silver, sire.' "Of solid silverl" replied
Napoleon quickly; ''yes, | shall help them
to fulfil their mission; it has been ordained
that they should go throughout the world,
and they shall" Having said so, the En-

the mail is brought from Harrisburg to us at Nor
