YOUNG LADIES

Whenever you see young men spen-
ding their leisure hours at some resort of
gaming, or other idle amusement, it is "a
sure sign they will never become great men.
Shun them, girls-thcy VIII never make
good husbands.
A beau, dressed out as some are, is like a
cinnamon tree-the bark is worth more
than the body. Such beau fops, and the
whole pleasure loving Paternity, are short
lived animals. They lcok pretty in the
gay sunshine of summer; but, poor crea-
lures, they cannot endure thes approach of
autumn, and the old age of winter. They
have their little hour of enjoyment and that
is the end of them. :.
When any person, though in the garb of
L gentleman, addresses you in the language
Of fulsome 0attery, you should recollect
young ladies, that there are men of prey as
well as beasts Of prey.
love, like the plague, is often communi.
Gated by clothing and money.

CHoLERAIN CENTRAL AMERICA

We published on the 9TH ult an account
by private letter of the ravages ofthe Cho'-
era in Central America. We find it con-
frned by letter from Grenada, with ad-
ditional particulars The letter is dated
2nd July.-N T. CGz.
1.-THE Cholera is now in Leon; commit
ting great ravages among the Inhabitants
In St. Salvador, it destroyed 1900 persons
in 10 days, and at Teuganta, 1900 in 2l
DAYS, and in many other villages, two
thirds of the inhabitants have been taken
off by this pestilence.
"In two of the Indian villages near st.
Salvador, the Indians rose, en- nia'se, and
butchered many Of the Inhabitants, stating
that the President of the Republic and 9TH
ers, had poisoned all the rivers to kill the
poor people and deliver the country up to
the English; and, as a farther proof they
inquired why have none of the rich died.
They actually murdered poor English
man who was wandering on the banks OF
the river Limpa, in quest of strayed mule,
under the pretext that he was going to poi
son the river-that is, river as large as
San Juan. So general has been the idea
that the waters are poisoned, that the peo-
pie there (Grenada) will not drink the well
water on any account"

An almanac, published in the year 1880. ,

tions, which have been fulfilled to the very

F!hdl Reverence Of the Turks;-An e.
qually beautiful feature in the character Of
the Turks is their reverence and respectfor
the author of their being. Their wives
advice and reprimand are unheeded, their
words are bOsh--nothing-but their mother
is an oracle. She is consulted, confded in,
listened to with respect and Difference, hon.
ored to her latest hour, and remembered
with affection and regret beyond the grave.

the Osmanli, "my children perish, and
others may borne to me, but who shall re-
store TO me the mother who has passed
away, and who is seen no morel"

DEATH.

In the whole course of our observation
ihsre is not so misrepresented and abused
parsonage as death. Some have styled
him the king of terrors, when he might
with less impropriety have been termed the
lerror Of kings; others have dreaded him as
an evil without end, although it was in their
own power to make him the-end of all evil.
lie has been vilifed as the cause Of anguish,
CONSERVATION, and despair; but these, alas,
are things that appertain not unto death, but
pnto lfe.-How strange paradox is this:
we love the distember and loathe the RENE
&, preferring the fercest bufetings of the
hfrricanc to the tranquility of the harbor.
'The poet has lent his fctions, the painter
his colors, the orator his tropes, to pour
tray death as the grand destroyer, the enc
my, the prince of phantoms and of shades.
But can he be called destroyer, who for a
perishable state gives us that which is eter-
nal! Can he be styled the enemy, who is
the best friend only of the best, who never
deserts them at their utmost need, and
whose friendship proves the most valuable
to those who live the longest Can he be
termed the prince Of oGphantoms and of shades,
who destroys that which is transient and
temporary, to establish that which alone is
real and fixed? And what are the mourn
fnl escutcheons, the sable trophies, and the
melancholy insignia with which we sur
round him, the sepuchral gloom, the moul-
dering carcass, and the Shiny worm! These
indeed are ;he idle fears and empty terrors.
not of the dead, but of the living. The
dark domain of death we dread indeed to
enter, but we ought rather TO dread the
fuggedness of some of the roads that lead to
Il; but if they are rugged, they are short,
and it is only those that are smooth, that
are wearisome and long. Perhaps he sum
mons us too soon from the feast OF life, be it
so; if the exchange be not for the better.
il is not his fault, but our own: or he sum
mons us late; the call is a repreve, rather
Than sentence; for who would wish TO sit
Api the board, when he can no longer par
lake of the banquet, or to live on to pain,
when he has long been dead to pleasure'
Tyrapts can sentence their victims to death,
but how much more dreadful would he their
power, could they sentence them to life!
Life is the jailer of the soul in this filthy
prison, and its only delvercr is death; what
We call life, is journey to death, and what
We call death, is passport to life. True
Wisdom thanks death for what he takes,
and still more for what he brings. Let US
ihen ike sendnels be ready, because we

ALWAYS HAVE AN OBJECT IN VIEW.

ALWAYS HAVE AN OBJECT IN VIEW.
The highest object YOU can have in view
is to glorify God and enjoy him forever.
The next highest is, to honor thy father
and mother.
The next is to love thy neighbour as thy
self.
The next, to serve thy country honestly
and faithfully in whatever station thou art
called to fill.
And the next to choose thee wife in thy
youth, but be careful of your choice. Do
not marry fool, unless you wish to beget
yourself trouble.
Remember young men, always to have an
object in view; and let your aim be elevated.
This is the safeguard of character and
the handspring of excellence.

THE LOVED AND LOST.

They saw her laid with many tear
In deaths eternal sleep;
They wePt uTon her early bier;
n But Ito whom she was so dear
was not there to weep!
They saw her wither one by one
They markd her charms decay,
sTill life's last fading leaf was gone,
"a And all was senscless clay!
But Who loved so tenderly-
was not there to see her die!
They watched her sad and wand'ring glance,
That sought around in VaiH
They woke her from her fev'rish trance,
And sooth'd her dying pairt
But Ito whom her thought had fed
was not there-nnd sh9 is Tad!
