upon the strength of reported loss of crops Europe has
given many impression that to obtain for all

increase of stock last year but the State tables be-

equal $780, l04 barrels Of -four and shows that the late adj

MISCELLANEOUS.
The Flight Of Time.

In every age OF the world the rapid flight
Of time has been a subject of deep and sol.
emn consideration. When the patriarch Of
Israel stood before the monarch of Egypt
and listened to his question allow old art
thou!" it seemed TO thloR a melancholy in
terest over the past. Long as this aged
man had lived, the time appeared TO him
but as a dream, and as he looked upon the
numbered years which had laid his fathers
in their sepulchres, and brought himself
near TO their restirg.place, spirit of sad
ness came over him.
No orator has been more eloquent upon
the flight of time than the man Of Uz-
"Man that is born of woman is of few
days and full Of trouble. He cometh forth
like flower, and is cut down. He Geeth
also as shadow and continueth not. His
days are swifter than a weaveI's shuttle;
they are passed away as the swift ships, and
as the eagle that hasteth 10 bis prey"
Coming down the tide of time still furth.
er, we find the noble monarch Of Israel and
the sublime Isaiah, sending forth their sac
numbers. "The days Of man are as grass
AS flower of the field, so he fourishetb
Fer the wind passeth over it, and it is gone
and the place thereof shall know it no more.
-"All flesh is grass, and the goodlnes
thereof as the flower of the field"
The great Apostle to the Genliles write
TO the Corinthians TO be careful of thei
earthly relations. FOR the s'time is short,
: and another Apostle assures us that 'life j
but vapo: that appeareth for little TIM
r and then vanisheth away" Whatever ma
be the true cause, in an apostate world, th
r fight Of years casts shadow over its ger
r, erations. II sin had never entered the worIC
