The outward throne Of divine magni6cence.

THE RESTING PLACE.

Z" So man lieth down. and riseth lot till the

However dark aud disconsolu,e The
path Of life may seem 10 any man, there is
an hour Of deep and quiet repose al hand,
when the body may sink INFO drealn!css
slunber. Let not The Imagination be
startled. if this resting place, instead oflhe
he'd OF down, shall be the bed of gravel, or
the rocky pavement Of the tomb. No
matter where the remains of weared man
may lie, the repose is deep and nndis-
turbed-lhe sorrowlul bosom heaves no
more; the tears are dried up in ii heir luuu
stormy waves OF earthly tribulation roll un-
needed over the very bosoms Of The pale
nations OF the dead hot one ul the seepers

To the rending shouts of victory.
How quiet these countless millions
slumber in :he arm of their mother earth
The voice of thunder shalt not awaken
them: the loud cry of the elemenIs--tlle
WInds---lhe waves--nor even The giant
tread Of The earthquake, shall be able to
cause an iuquierude in the chamber of
death. They shall res, aud pass away!
The last great battle shall be fought; and
then silver voice, at first just heard, shall
rlse to the tempest tone, aud penetrate The
voiceless grave. For the trumpet shall
sound, and the dead shall hear HIS voice.

ARABIA DESERTA.

F. Igure to yourself country without
verdure. and without valera sky for
everdry-a burning sun-sandy plains
mountains even yet more arid, over which
the eye extends, and the vision is lost,
withd dut the power of fixing on any living
objec IA soil dead, and parched by the
winds; presenting nothing but pebbles
strewa around-rocks standing or over
throw,,-a desert entirely open, where the
traveller has never breathed in the shade,
where nothing solaces him-nothing re-
calls ts him, animated nature. The pro-
found solitude is a thousand times more
terrible than that of The forest; for even
the tre,s are companions for him who is
alone. Completely isolated-destitule-
lost in heir void and boundless regions, on
all sides he beholds space, as his tomb !
The light Of day more gloomy than the
shade d night, only dawns 10 reveal 10
him, his desIilulion-his helplessness-
and The horrors of his situation. II only
shows Il him, the depth of that immensitv,
which separates him from The dwellings of
men-n immensity beyond which he in
vain attempts 10 pass; for hunger, thirst.
and heat fill up the moments which re-
main I'd him, between despair and death.

A PLEA OF " NOLO CONTEN-

A naive Of the Emerald Isle, being
brought before police court in Massa-

if he was guilty or not guilty?
Guilty.--be the powers !" exclaimed
he, making demonstration of more than
fight, haint a man a right in a free
country, 10 knock down any body he
phases, without being guilty Of salts and
hallhers, I'D ak ye?"
The Court answering this in the mega
tive, Pat was little at loss what TO
say. He did not like the word guilty, and
gloried 100 muchsin his character Of
boxer, TO wish to deny The charge. Whilo
he was hesilating what to say, gent!d-
man of the bar whispered to him TO put in
a plea of "Nolo coDtendere."

The meaning is, that you will not con-

TRUST TO YOURSELF.

"Trust To yourself" is Curious prin-
ciple for the industrious and trading clas-
ses Of the community-and yet the philos-
ophy Of it is not perhaps underst oj so well
as 1t ousnt TO he.
There is hardly anything more common
in The country than TO hear men spoken OF
who originally; or at snme period of their
lives, were rich, but were ruined by 'Secu.
rity, that is, by becoming bound IN too
great an extent for The engagements ol
their neishbors. This must arise in Il
great measure from an imperfect under
standing of The matter; and it therefore
seems necessary that something should be
said in explanation of il.
| would be far from desiring to see meu
shut up their hearts against each other,
and each sland, 10 The panoply of his own
resolutions, determined against every friend
lyappeal whatsoever. ltis possible. how
ever, to be not altogether chhrl, and yet
to take care lest we be tempted into al
exerlion ofbenevolence dangerous 10 our
selves, while il is of little advantage 10 Our
friends.
Notwithstanding the many lies which
connect a man with society, he ueverlhe
less bears largely imprinted on bis fore
head The ori ginal doom, that he must chief
ly be dependent on bis own labor for sub
sistence. 1t is found by all men of expe
rience, that, in so far as one trusts 10 his
own exertions solely, ho will be apt TO
flourish; and in so far us he leans, and dr
pends on others, he will be the reverse
Nothing can give as good a general assu
rance of well doing as The personal activity
of the individual, day by Gay, exerted for
his own interest. Ifa man, on the contra
ry, suddenly finds, in the midst of such a
career, prospect ofsome patronage which
seems likely 10 enrich him at once, or if
he falls into The heritage ofsome antigua.
ted claims TO property or title, that he
thinks 1t necessary 10 prosecute; it Is len 10
Que that he declines from thai moment,
and is finally ruined. The only true way
to make happy progress through this
world is TO 90 on in dosged, peSeverins
pursuit Of one goud object. neither turning
10 The rish, or to tre left, making our busi-
ness as much as possible our pleasure, and
not permitting ourselves TO awake from

Of our wishes, with fortune almost lincoln

TO DISAPPOINTMENT.

Ha. disappointment, has thou come,
With serpent eye, and raven winsi
With haggard brow. and iron tongue;
With poisonous breath, and fiery sting
Welcome thou child of dark despair.
Thou reachcst me mournful truth,
That those call my friends may wear
A mask 10 mock me, cen in youth.
False as the ligh, the meteor filings,
And colder than the iceberg's CLEAN
Are they, the holiow-hearted things,
Who chrcrrd me in my splendid dream.
Like Sodom's apples, thou hast shown.
The ones. my young heart loved, to be,
And now with bitter ashes strewn,
l stand beside life's drcary sea.
Fixed as the oak that rears its head
To brave The lightning of the storm,
Der buried hope my arms Ispread.
Ana mock the mucker's larry form.
Fearless Of those whose love is bright
And careless ofthcir deepest scorn,
soar above q world of night,
And revel in eternal morn.
They who would cheat the trusting heart
And crush the hopes of manhood's hoiir,
Whose hands would tip the poisonous dart,
And hurl it with demoniac power;
For them no rest of pure delight
In yonder heavenly realm awaits,
But shame, and wo. and ldrid night,
Where terror shuts her awful gates.
