OH why should the spiril OF mortal be proudl
Like lighl-deeIlng meteor, fast diuins CLOUD
A fash OF the lightning, break OF me wave
He passeth from life 10 his resi- 10 the grave
The leaves az The oak ana the willow shall fade,
Be scattered around and together be laid
And the young snd the old, and The low and me
Shall moulder 70 dasl, and together shall lie.
The child whom q mother attended and loysdi
The mother thai infants affection who proved;
The husband that mother and infant wh5 olesi,
Each, all are away 70 their dwelling Of resi-
The maid on whose brow, on whose cheek in whose
eye
shone beauty and pleasure. her triumphs are BY;
And alike from the minds OF The living erased
Are the mem'ries OF monals who loved her and
praised.
The hand ofthe King that the sceptre hath borne;
The brow of the Priest that the miire hath worn;
The eye Of the sage and the beast OF the brave,
Are hidden and LOST in the depths Of the grave.
The saint who enjoyd the communion Of Heaven;
The sinner who dared TO remain uniorgyen;
The wise and The foolish, the gully and just,
Have quietly mingled their bones in the dust
The peasant whose lot was to SOW and to reap;
The herdsman that clmb'd with his goats up the
steep;
The beggar who wanderd in search OF his bread,
Have faded away like the grass thai we tread
So the multitude goes, like the flower OF the weed
That wither away TO let others succeed
So the multitude comes, even those we behold,
To.reap every tale thai has often been told
For we are the same that our fathers have BEEN
We've seen the same sights that our fathers have
We drink the same stream, and We see the same
sun,
And we run the course that our fathers have run.
The thoughts we are thinking our fathers would
think,
From the death we are shrinking our fathers would
shrink,
To the life we are clinging they also would cling
But II speeds from the earth like bird ON the wing
They loved, but their story we cannot unfold
They scorned, but the heart Of the haug il cold
They grieved, but wall from their s!nm6ers will
come;
They ioyed, but the tongue of their gIadness is dumb
They died !-ah they died We things that are
now,
Who walk on the turf tina, lies over each brow.
That make in their dwellings a transient abode,
Meet The things that they met on their pilgrimage
road
Yea, hope and dependency, pleasure and pain,
Are mingled together in sunshine and rain;
And the smile and The tear, and the song and the
dirge,
Still follow each other like surge upon surge.
IT'S the wink of an eye lis the draught Of breath
From the blossom OF health 10 the paleness o. DEATH
From the gilded saloon to the bier and the shroud
Oh! why should the spifit Of mortal be proudl

There was scarcely ever finer compli-
ment paid to lady than that which Dean
Swift addressed to wife, who was always
praising her husband:
:" You always are making god OF your spouse,
But that neither reason conscience allows;
Perhaps you think Ills in gratitude due,
And you admire him because he adores you.
Your arguments weak, and so you will find,
For YOU by this rule must adore all mankind !"

DRESS NOT GENTILITY.

Would the recollection Of the following re-
mark, by Steele, do some Of us any harm,

"When person speaks coarsely, he has dressed
himself clean 10 no purpose. The clothing Of our
minds is certainly be regarded before that of our
bodies. To be,ray in mans talk corrupt magma
ton, is much greater offence against the CONVEX
sation Of gentlemen, than any negligence of dress

h ands that he must die On Friday afternoon,
Doctor Helm sBERa-who,b by the way, ~ n bold OPP
erator-was persuaded to make last effort and,
obedient to his call, Lazarus came forth We are
not apprzed of the particulars Of the operation ;
nor Is il material, as the will probably be re-
ported for the medical journals We believe, how
ever. that BY the warm bath, and the free use OF
the scariiier and cupping glass, he succeeded in
drawing Gig hteen ounces of blood from the region
of the cerebelIum, which gave almost instant re-
lief To the no small establishment of the bystan-
ders, the patient suddenly opened his eyes, raised
himself up, as it were from the grave, and called
FOR waer-a cup of cool water!
"Ah, in that sleep, what dreams may come !"
IF leisure permitted we might preach sermon.
But. "let him that heareth unde rstand." Huntoon
is now in a fair way to recover, and, beyond all
doubt, moro rational man. On being first inter-
rogated as to what he had been about, he replied
that he recollected taking pill ofopium last night.
The intervening five days were entirely lost, ex-
cept in the accumulation Of rather unusual appetite.
Without detrachng at all from the high aud well
earned reputation of the other gentlemen in at
tendance it is just to say, that DIR Hcineberg is
