A BEAUTIFUL PIcTURE.-Life is beauti-
fully compared to fountain fed by thou
sand streams that perish if one be dried. 1t
is silver cord twisted with a thousand
strings that part asunder, if one be broken.
Frail and ,houghtless mor,als are surround
ed by innumeral dangers, which make it
much more strange that they escape so long
that they almost all perish suddenly at last.
We are encompassed with accidents every
day to crush the mouldering tenements that
we inhabit. The seeds of disease are plant
ed in our constitutions by nature. The earth
and the atmosphere whence we draw the
breath, of life is impregna,ed with DEATH
Health is made to operate its own destruc-
ton! The food that nourishes contains
the elements Of decay the soul that ami
mates it by vivifying fire tends to wean it
out by its own action death turks in am
bush along our paths. Notwithstanding
this is the truth, SO palpably confirmed by
the daily examples before our eyes, how little
do we lay it to heart! We see our friends
and neighbors perishing among US, but how
seldom does it occur to our thoughts that
our knell shall, perhaps, give the next fruit
less warning to the world?

A French story writer says: "Whatever
one may feel of present passion or afec-
lion, j. is impossible to find oneself again in
the presence of her whom he has formerly
loved well, without feeling ofsweet warmth
about the heart, glow still remaining Of
the fire that burnt in other days" And an
other essayist on love remarks "As bota-
mist, csptlvated with nature, loves flower
even when its leaves have fallen, so refn-
ed man finds beloved woman the same.
even when there is nothing left of her beau
~ but the shadow. He is constant to the
Past, when he could not otherwise have ad-
mired the Present, or said anything flaiter-
