PLEASURES OF CoNrENrMESr.-I have rich
neighbor that is always SO busy that he has no
leisure to laugh; the whole business of his life
is to get money, that hs may still get more
and more money. He is still drudgiDg on, say
ing what Solomon says, 6 The diligent hand
maketh rich' And it is true, indeed; but he
considers not that it is not in the power of
riches to make man happy; for it was wisely
said by a man of great observation, /" that there
be as many miseries beyond riches as on this
side of them" And yet heaven deliver us from
pinching poverty, and grant that, having a COM
potency, we may be content and thankful. Let
us not repine, or so much as think the gifts of
God unequally dealt, if We see another abound
with riches, when, as God knows. the cares that
are the keys that keep those riches hang often
SO heavily at the rich mans girdle, that they
clog him with weary days and restless nights,
even when others-Heep quietly. We see but the
outside ofthe rich mans happiness; few con-
aiaer him to be like the silk worm, that when
she seems to play, is at the same time spinning
her own bowels, and consuming herself And
this many rich men do, loading themselves with
corroding cares to keep what they have already
got. Let US, therefore, be thankful for health
and competence, and, above all, for a quiet con-
science. lzak Walton

THE SUFFERINGs OF GENIus.-The worlds his
tory is full Of the persecution of great men, who
stepped forward in advance of their age, warn
ing us to look kindley on honest purposes, and
to judge with charity what we do not compre-
hend. Let us not ridicule or dispise new things,
because they conflict with our observation or
seem TO be impracticable There is hardly q
discovery OF invention in art that has not had
its day Of trial and discouragement. Many
man has gone heart broken to his grave, in
whom the fire of genius has burned, unseen and
unapprecisted, when adverse circumstances, or
shrinking timidity, or cold neglect, or want of
kind word, have come like mountain upon him
and kept his secret buried forever. Prison bars
have been pressed by throbbing brows which
would have redeemed the world The records
of the world full of the neglect of merit, and
yet nothing has been told. Perhaps there is
scarcely man living who has not during some
portion Of his life, known some one who has
pined unheeded, wanting the general air and
sunshine which never came. Men get misplaced
and do not meet the magnet to draw out the
metal within them. Mediocrity writes verses
when it should be holding the pillow, and the
trse poet does the drudgery of life, not dream
ing why the fire torments him. The flint and
steel are cold and cheerless until stuck together,
and they may never come in contact.
