ROLLING ONWARD

TExr.-Rolling, rolling, keep the ball
a-rolling.
Ny HEARERS. when speak of rolling,
you needn't take particular pains to un-
derstand that | have reference to ten-pins
though | have no objection to your in
dulging in that species of healthful anu
sement as often as time and money will
permit. What | mean by rolliug is, that
you should keep matters rollingonward- :
push ahead, and not to allow them to rest
and stagnate. Persevere in all things
put your hands to the plough and never
look back and the time will come when
you can roll in your carriages past the
huts and dens of Poverty, as unconcer-
ned for a dollar as a duck for an India
rubber overshoe.
My friends see how the whole uni
verse is made to roll! The sun, moon
and stars are all of a globular form, and
they are bound to keep rolling so long
as the years roll round. There is nothing
square in Nature,-all approaches, more
or less, to rotundity. Do you know a
beast, bird, fish, or creeping thing, that
is square in its making 2 No, | know
you don't. Mans body is round, his
head is round, his limbs are round his bo'
nes'are round, and so on, all round He is
manufactured that he may roll along,
tumble along, Or get along some way OIL
other; but a square thing cant bulge an
inch. Now, this ball of mortal flesh
should be kept rolling-in constant exer-
else, as much as the rolling spheres
But one half of you don't move enough
tokeep from moulding. Theconsequence
is, you present shabby exteriors, and the
spiders of melancholy weave their webs
in every corner of the brain. Keep the
ball a-rolling = is the motto for all-po.
liticians especially. Ifyou get up an ex.
citement in favor of any particular candi-
date for presidency. you must keep the
ball a-rolling,' or probably he won't get
chance to sleep within the walls of the
White House. Would-be presidents are
like balls Of snow: the more you roll them
the greater they grow-Gn imagination J
But there is one thing certain-we must
all turn to CLAY, at last-not politically,
but literally speaking. Yes, dear bre-
thren, Time rolls on, and it won't be but
little while before we shall all be rolled
into our graves. The grass will grow
green above us-the flowers will bloom
at our lowly bedsides the birds will sing
their mathis and their vesperS in the
thick summer foliage but we shall not
behold the beautiful flowers, nor hear the
sweet songs of the little merry birds.
No, we shall be there as snug as bug
in a rug as blind as a bat, as deaf as a
post, and as stiff as poker only we
shan't-not WE. The souls old clos lie
buried in the ground, but the dispossessed
possessor still lives, clothed in the unfa-
ding and unwearoutable garments Of i'm
