BEAUTIFUL EXTRACT.

However dark and disconsolate the path
OF life may seem to any man. there is an hour
OF deep and undisturbed repose at hand, when
the body may sink into drearless slumber
Let not the imagination be startled if this
resting place, instead Of being bed Of down
shall be bed of gravel, or the rocky led Of
she tomb. No matter where the poor remains
Of man may be, the reposc is deep and undis-
turbed, the sorrowiul bosom heayes no more,
and the tears are dried up in their fountain,
the aching head is at rest, and the stormy
waves of earthly tribulatian roh UNDECIDED
over the place Of graves lie, armies cogugc
in fearful conflict over the very bosom Of TIE
dead and not one of the sleepers heed the
spnit stirring triumphs, or respond to the
rending shouts Of victory. How quiet those
countless millions sleep in the arms Of their
mother earth. The voice of thunder shall
not awaken them--thc loud cry of the ele.
ments, the winds, the waves, nor even the
giant tread ofthc earthquake, shall be able
to cause inquietude in the chamber Of death
They shall rest and pass away-thc great
battle shall be fought and then a small
voice at first heard, shall rise to a tempest,
and penetrate tho voiceless wave. for trum-
pet shall sound, and the dead shall hear bis
voice.

FEmALE INFLUENCE AND ENERGY.

| have noticed says Washington Irving,
that q married man falling into misfortune, is
more apt to retrieve bis situation in the
world than single one, chiefly because his
spirits are soothed and relieved by domestic
endoarments, and self respect kept alive, by
finding, that although abroad be darkness
and humiliation, yet there is still little
world of love at home of which he is a mon
arch Whereas u single man IS apt to run to
waste and self-neglect; to fall to ruins, Ike
some deserted mansion, for want of inhabi-
tant, | have often had occasion to mark the
fortitudc with which women sustain the most
overwhelming reverse Of fortune Those dis
asters which break down the spirit OF mar
and PROSTATE him in the dust, seem to call
forth all the energies of the softer sex, and
give such intrcpidity and elevation to their
character that at times it approaches to sub
Unity. Nothing can be more touching than
to behold soft and tender female, who had
been all weakness and dependence, and alive
to every trivial roughness, while treading the
prosperous path of life, suddenly rising in
mental force to be the comforter of and sup
porter OF her husband under misfortunes, abb
ding with unshrinking frmncss, the bittercst
blasts Of adversely. As the vine which has
long twined its graceful foliage about the oak,
and has been lifted by it in sunshine. will,
when the hardy plant is rifted by the thun-
derbolt, cling round with its caressing tendrils.
and binds up its shattered brow so. too, it
is beautifully ordained by Providence that
woman, who is the ornament and dependant
of man in his happier hours, should be his
stay and solace when smitten with dire and
sudden calamity; winding herself into the
rugged recesses of his nature, tenderly sup
porting bis dropping head, and binding up
| the broken heart.
