CnANcE.-A contemporary. speaking OF
the ''game Of chance," of which this lie,
as many believe, is made up, says:
"Chancc is the first impress on the mind,
and we pass through life with doubts and
spprehensions exhibited in every act. and
mirrored in every thought. Man starts out
upon the wide world and invests the gifts of
the author of nature-menlal, moral and
physical-wi'h the chance Of doing well
for himself and fellow snjourne@~. but "the
basis rests upon renture;' and there are
ten chances TO one that he draws blank in
the lottery Of life. the merchant invests
his capitol in the lottery Of speculation with
a possible chance of gain; the inventor en-
slaves his mind dav and night, with a
chance of success in his undertaking; the
students Of science and art burn the mid
night oil and ponder over old musiy tones
in search of hidden truths and principles.
that. perchanre. will give them distinction;
snd The politician forsnkes the paths Of pri-
vacy, sacrifices his time and prostitutes his
wits and cunning to the ambition of being
q leader of a faciinn-ihe servant of the
peopl., with the chance Of getting q good
fat salary for the samel The divine. inces-
sant in his devotional duties, frames HI.
various arguments in support Of the tenet.
of his faith. but it is by chance that his ar
quments strike the mind as feasible and re-
ceive the assent Of tho world. Thus chance
like q spectre, attends him from birth Il
death, casting shadow Of doubt and un
certainty over his dreary path, as i,npene
,rable as the veil of night"
