PHILOSOPHY FOR THE T1MEs.-The fol
lowing scrap from an English writer takes
the proper view of things, and suggests
system of philosophy that will do much
to Danish from The mind the oppressive
gloom created by hard times broken banks
and low prices: ~
BETTER DArs.-Be.ter days are like
Hebrew verbs-they have no present
tense they are of the past or future only.
An that's bright must fade says Tom
Moore. Very likely aud ." ''ns.t all
that's not bright. 10 hear some people
talk, you would imagine that there was no
month in the year except November, and
that the leaves had nothing to do but TO
fall off the trees. And, to refer again to
Tom Moore's song of the 'siars that
shine and fall one might suppose that, by
this time, all the stars in heaven had been
blown out, like so many farthing candles
in show booth and as for flowers and
leaves, if they 60 away, j, is only to make
way TO- new ones. l here are as many
stars in heaven as ever there were in the
memory of man and as many flowers on
earth, too, and perhaps more in England,
for we are always making fresh importa.-
tons. Some croakers remind one of the
boy who said tina, his grandmother went
up stairs nineteen times and never came
down again. Or, to. seek for another re
semblance, they may be hkened TO the
Irish grave-digger, who was seen looking
about the Churchyard, with d lantern in
his hand. What have you lost, Pat q
ooh! Eve lost my lantern = You have
your lantern in your hand 'Oh but this
is lantern tina! I've found; It's not the
| lantern I've LOST Thus it is with men
in general: they think more Of the lantern
they have lost, than of the lantern they
have found.

GREAT FLooD. AND Loss OF LIFE
The late Philadelphia papers are filled
with the particulars of one of the most
awful and destructive floods by which
tina, or any other portion Of the country
was ever before visited The loss of
property is immense. but nothing in com
sparison with the loss Of life. Fifty per-
sons, at least. are known to have persisted,
and probable as many more. 1t was.
says one account, as it the earth had
opened and poured forth her secret flood.
Scarcely was the presence of danger
known before it was followed by the abs
sence of hope. Hundreds of hair breadth
escapes are narrated. The whole country
is overspread with gloom, aud the conse-
quence Of las, nights calami,ies will long
overshadow the prosperity OF this lovely
section Of country The above is de-
scrip,ive of the ravages Of the food at
Chester. 20 miles below Philadelphia
In and around the city the storm assumed
the form Of tornado, levelling to the
ground every thing in It's way. Houses
were unrooied and blown down; trees
uproo,ed; bridges swept away fences
levelled and hundreds Of tons of hay and
whole fields Of corn. &c. entirely destroy
ed Scarcely mill dam or bridge in The
whole neighborhood is left standing, while
numberless canal boats, barges, &c. were
sunk. Several houses were also struck
with lightning and some lives lost. The
whole account is most appalling, and but
for its length should be transferred TO our
columns, The canals and rail roads have
sustained much injury.-Ter. Gaz.

EvENINe.--I think there are two periods in
the life of man in which the evening hour is
peculiarly interesting-in youth and old age.
In youth, YOU love il for its mellow moonlight
its million stars. its then rich and soothing
shades, its still serenity; amid these we can
commune " it'll our loves, or Irvine the wreaths
of friendship, while there is none to bear US
witness but the heavens ard the spirits that
hold their endless Sabbaths Thereon look in.
to The deep bosom of creation, spread abroad
like canopy above us, and listen ill we can
almost see and hear the waving wings and
melting songs of other beings in other worlds
Ito youth the evening is delightful; it ac-
cords with the flow Of his light spirits, the
flow of his fancy, and the sofsness Of bis
heart. Evening is also the delight OF virtu-
Gus age-it affords hours Of undlsturbed con.
temptation; it seems an emblem of the calm
and tranquil close Of busy life; serene, placid,
and mild, with the impress OF it's great Cfea-
tor stamped upon it; it spreads its quiet winds
over the grave, and seems to promise that all
shall be peace beyond it.-Franklin.
The LoRD's PRAyER.-The following pas
sage by Montgomery is beautiful:
How many millions and millions OF times
| has that PRAYER been offered by Christians OF
| all denominations? So wide, indeed, IS The
sound thereof gone forth, that daily, and al
| most without intermission, from the ends OF
the earth, and afar upon the sea, it is ascend
ing to heaven like incense, and pure Offering.
Nor needs it the gift Of prophecy 10 foretel,
that though "heaven and earth shall pass a. =,
| way" these words Of our blessed Lord "shal
no, pass away till every petition has been
answered. Till the kingdom Of God shall come
