The Inevitable Doom.

Human life is like road which terminates in
frightful precipce; we are warned of it from the
first step but the law is gone forth; must con-
stantly advance would wish to retrace my steps;
on on, forward; we must increasingly advance to-
wards the precipice. A thousand vexations, thou
sand troubles fatigue and distress us on the road
but if could only avoid that frghtful precipice- !
No. no, we must advance, we must even rum such
is the rapidity of years. We console ourselves,
however, because from time to time we meet with
objects which amuse us-running waters. We
would wish to pause; on, on! And yet we see all
that we have passed falling into ruin behind us -
frightful crash, inevitable destruction! We con-
sole ourselves because we have carried off some
flowers, gathered by the way-side, which fade in
our hands are the evening approaches; some fruits
which we lose in tasting-enchantmen illusion! !!
Still hurried on approachest the gulf; already
everything begins to pass away; the gardens are
less fowery, the meadows less brilliant, the stream
less pure; all fade, all pass away; the shadow of
death appears; we begin to feel the approach of
the fatal gulf But we must advance to the brink
another STEP Already horror has seized upon the
sense; the head grows dizzy, the eyes wander
on, I would retrace my steps; impossible; all
has fallen all has vanished all is lost.
need not tell you this road is life; this guilt is
death. Bossuet

stopping Newspapers--A Parable.

The wisdom of the ancients was often clothed in
parable, and even the sublime truths of the gos-
pei, were by their sacred author, frequently pro-
mulgated in the form of simple story. The moral
contained in the following is none the less weighty
because point is given by clothing it in fable. and
the truthfulness Of the comparison, all will allow,
who have ever been SO unfortunate as to be con-
nected with the publication of newspaper We
know that it is not unfrequenty the case that men,
stopping their paper in a pet, stand by and gaze
at the concern in momentary expectation to see it
fall; but not always to realize full fruiton to their
hopes
A certain man hit his toe against stone, and
fell headlong to the ground He was vexed and
under the influence of anger and active sef-sufh-
cheney, he kicked old mother earth right saucily.
With great gravity, he looked to the just globe

earth remained, and only bis poor toe was injured
in the encounter. An article in newspapr touch
ed him in weak spot and straightway, he sends
word to stop his paper. With great selfcompla-
ceney he looks on to see crush when the paper
the object of his spleen shall cease to be- Poor FOOL
