Quoting these examinations making it manifest

A HAPPY WoRLD.--This is happy world
who says 10 the contrary is fool or something else
There is every thing to make us happy. The
land, sea and sky contribute to our enjoyment
The man who has good heart sees pleasure
where bad person behods nothing but
gloom. The secret, then, of being happy
and enjoying this glorious world, is to pos
sess virtuous heart. Who is the most cheerful
and contented man in your neighborhood The
man who Is the most honored and possesses the
greatest riches2 No. tits he who has nothing
but kind heart. Nothing rut1les his temper or
disturbs his repose. The morning sky-the even
ing cloud-the rolling waters-the blooming land
scape-the teeming forests and the f.Ids of snow,
give him a pleasure that others never dream Of
1t is he whose mind is led from nature up to ma
lures God-and every day that he lives is as con-
tented and happy as it is possible for man to be.
Depend upon it, this world is beautiful one and
contains thousand sources of enjoyment, which
they only can see and feel, whose hearts are pure
and whose lives correspond with the word of eter-
nal truth.

POETRY.
OIL! THE HEART 1T is A TREASURE.


OH! THE HEART 1T Is A TREASURE.
BY j. e. CARPENTER.
Oh the heart it is a treasure
That should not be lightly won,
To be thrown aside at pleasure,
When the festive hour is done;
IT'S jewel that, to cherish,
Should be still thy dearest boast,
For, when all beside it perish,
Will its worth be known the most!
If that heart for thee is beating,
Use it gently lest it break
Warm and tender be thy greeting.
Twill grow fonder for thy sake!
And in sickness or in sorrow,
Let thy care its solace be,
Then twill all its gladness borrow
From its sun of hope, in thee!
Oh! the heart il is blessing,
In its freshness and its youth;
BE it thine, mid thy caressing,
To preserve it in its truth;
Ills no worldly gem, at pleasure
To be worn or cast aside,
But firm and priceless treasure.
And more valued when it's tried

LAMARTINE.-In a letter to friend. dated
March and published in the "Courrier des Etats
Unis," Lamartine says: "For seven days have
hardly had breathing time. have passed three
without ceasing TO harangue and combat in the
midst of 10000 men, more agitated than the waves
of the sea- but it was sea of fire and iron. God
has protected me; now may he project the Mother
Of ideas and great hears-a France!''
