THE JOURNAL.
YOUTH AGE.


The following beautiful lines originally appearodir
the Etonian, periodical started about twenty year.
ago, by the boys CLIFTON College. For ruth, tender
ness and melody they are incompatible:
often think each ~tottering form
That limps alongin hle's decline,
Once bore a heart as young as warm
AS full of idle thoughts as mine!
And each has had its dream o fioy,
His own unecualled pure romance;
Commencing when the blushing boy
First thrills at lovely women,s glance.
And each could tell his tale of youth,
Would think its scenes of love eyince
More passions, more unearthly truth,
Than any tale before or since
Yes they could tell of tender lays
At midnight penned in classic shades,
Ofdays more bright than modern days
And maids more fair than modern maids.
Ofwhispers in awilling ear,
OF Kisses on a blushing check;
Each kiss, each whisper, far too dear,
Our modern lips to give or speak,
passions too untimely crossed;
Or passions slighted or betrayed
Of kindred spirits early lost,
And buds that blossom but TO fade.
ofbeaming eyes and tresses gay,
Elastic form and noble brow,
And forms that have all passed away
And left them what we see them now.
And Isl thus-is human love
So very light and frail a thing2
And must youths brightest visions move
Forever on Times restless wing?
Must all the eyes that still are bright,
And the lips that talk of bliss,
And all the forms so fair to sight,
Hereafter only come to this! M .
Then what are earth's best visions worth,
If we al length must loose them thus!
Ifall we value most on earth
Ere long must fade away from US?

We are never partial to those who
are locking always to the future for hap
pinrss. Now is the only time SO EN-
JOY yourselves, and the only time that
is really your own. 10 hear you talk
and see you act, one would suppose
that December lasted the whole year,
and that never blossom bloomed in
your path. One lesson we would like
to have you remembet-it is this: The
man who is no, pleasant and contented
now, will not be SO BY and.by. There
will always be lion in his path-a
cloud beneath his sky and a veil about
his heart. There will be no better
time than the present; there will never
rise brighter suns, blow softer breezes,
smile sweeter flowers, or dawn happi-
er days. Remember :his, and become
now what you intend to be in the far
diStan: future.
