Heaven,

We're there country on. earth uniting
all that is beautiful in Nature, all that is
great in virtue, genius. and the liberal arts.
and numbering among its citizens. the most
illustrious patriots, poets, philosophers, and
philanthropists of our age. how eagerly
should we cross the ocean to visit it! And
how immeasurably greater is the attraction
Of Heaven! There live the elder brethren
of the creation, the sons of the morning
who sang for Joy at the creation of our race;
there, the great and the good Of all ages
and climes; the friends. benefactors, deliv-
erers, ornaments OF their race; the patri
arch, prophet. apostle, and martyr. the
true heroes Of public. and still more Of
private life. the father, mother. husband.
wife. child. who unrecorded by man have
alked before God, in the beauty of love
and sacrificing virtue; there, are all who
have built up in our hearts the power Of
goodness and truth, the writer's from whose
pages we have received the inspiration oI
pure and lofty sentiments; the friends
whose countensnce have shed ligh through
our dwellings. and peace and strength
through our hearts; there. they are gather
ed together, safe from every storm. and
triumphant over every evil. and they say
to US, come join us in our everlasting bles-
sedness; come and bear part in our song
OF praise, share our alteration, friendship
progress and works Of love.

Prim People.

There is d set Of people whom cannot
bear-the pinks Of fashionable propriety-
whose every word is precise. and whose
every movement Is unexceptionable; but
who. though we'll versed in all the catego
ries Of polite behavior. have not a particle
OF soul or of cordially about them. We
allow that their manners may be abundant
ly correct. There may be elegance in ev.
cry gesture. and gracefulness in every po
sition; not smile out OF place, and not a
step that would not bear the severest scru.
tiny. This is all very fine; but what wan,
is the heart and gaie,y ofsocial intercourse
the frankness that spreads ease and an
imation-the eye that speaks affably to all
that chases timidity from every bosom
and tells every man in the company to be
confident and happy. This is what con-
ceive to be the virtue OF the text, and no,
the sickening formality Of those who walk
by rule. and would reduce the whole ofhu-
man life to wire bound system of misery
and constraint.-Dr. Chalmers.

An Erect Position.

writer on health very justly condemns
the habit of lounging. in which large
number Of persons indulge, as injurious to
health. He says: san erect bodily atti-
tude is of vastly more importance to health
than is easily imagined. Crooked bodily
positions. maintained for any length oi
time. are injurious. whether in the sitting.
standing or lying posture, whether sleep
ing or walking To sit with the body lean
ing forward on the stomach. or to one side,
with the heels elevated to level with the
head, is moi only in bad taste, but exceed
ingly detrimental to health. 1t cramps the
stomach. presses the vital organs. inter
rupts the free motion of the chest, and en-
feebles the functions of the abdominal and
thoraic organs. and in fact, unbalances
the whole muscular system. Many chill
dren become hump-backed. or severely
round -shouldered. by sleeping with the
head raised on high pillow. When a
person finds it easier to sit or stand, walk
or sleep in crooked position than straight
one. such person may be sure that his
muscular system is badly deranged. and
the more careful he is to preserve straight
or upright position, and get back to nature
again, the better"

A Truthful Allegorv.

A traveller was pursued by unicorn.
In his alright he fell, and as falling man
he caught at whatsoever was in his way;
looked before him and saw fearful prec-
ipice He looked back and saw the uni
corn ready to destroy him. He looked a
gain before, and saw hideous dragon
with jaws gaping to receive him. He look
ed to the roots Of the tree and saw two
rats, one white and the other black, gnaw-
ing alternately at them
He looked among the branches of the
tree, and saw it filled with poisonous asps
ready to sting him; but from their lips
dropped honey Regardless Of surround
ing danger. he caught the honey, ate it.
and perished.
o. reader! o. man! see here thyself!
The tree is life. the unicorn death; the
precipice eternity; the dragon thy destroy.
er; the rats day and night numbering the
hours Of thy stay on earth; the asps thy
own bad passions; the honey pleasure, o.
which thou partakest TO thy eternal ruin.

A GEN..

The little | have seen Of the world and
know of the history of mankind. teaches
me to look upon the errors Of others in sor-
row. not in anger. When take the his
tory of one poor heart that has sinned and
suffered, and present to myself the strug-
giles and temptations it has passed through;
the brief pulsations of JOY; the feverish IN
quietude OF hope and fear-the tears ofre-
gret-the feebleness of purpose-the pres
sure of want-the desertion Of friends-the
scorn of world that has little charity-the
desolation of the souls sanctuary, and
threatening vices within-health and hap
piness gone-l would be fain to leave the
erring soul of my fellow man with Him
from whose hand it came.

Home and Woman,

Our homes. what is their corner stone,
but the virtues of woman; and on what
does social we'll being rest but our home?
Must we not trace all other blessings of
civilized life to the doors of our private
dwellings? Are not our hearth stones,
guarded by the holy forms of conjugal,
filial and parental love, the corner stone
OF church and state? More sacred than
either, more necessary than both? lie,
our temples crumble. and our academies
decay-let every public ediice, our halls
OF justice, and our capitols Of state. be lev
eled with the dust, but spare our homes.
Man did not invent, and he cannot i'm
prove or abrogate them. A private shell
ter. to cover two hearts dearer to each
other than all else in the world; high walls
to exclude the profane eyes of every hu-
man being? secluson enough for children
to feel that mother is holy and peculiar
name-this is home; and here is the birth
place OF every virtuous impulse, of every
sacred thought. Here the church and
state must come for their support. Oh!
spare our homes! The love we experience
gives US our faith in an infinite goodness:
the purity and disinterested tenderness Of
home is our fore.taste and our earnest OF
a better world. In the relations there es.
tablished and fostered, do we find through
life the chief solace and Joy of existence.
What friends deserve the name compared
with those whom birth gave us. One
mother is worth thousand friends-one
sister dearer and truer than twenty init.
mate companions. We, who have play
ed on the same hearth stone, under the
lights Of the same smile, who date back to
the same scene and season of innocence
and hope. in whose veins run the same
blood. do we not find that years only make
more sacred and important the tie that
binds us? Goodness may spring up. dis
tance may separate, different spheres may
.divide-but those who can love anything.
who continue to love at all. must find the
friends whom God himself gave. are Who'll
ly unlike any we can choose for ourselves.
and that the yearnings for these is the
strongest spark in our expiring affections.

Remember

Every loathsome inmate of Penitentia.
ries and State Prisons. was once gentle
inofensive, and prattling child; and every
criminal that has expatiated his crimes up
on the gallows, was once pressed to
mothers breast. and drew from her breas
the life-giving nourishment. Bad mora
training. wrong influences, and debasine
examples do their work, and transform en-
dearing offsprings to ferocious men, whs
shock humanity by the foulness OF thei
guilt. and the monstrous audacity OF thei
crimes. Yet how seldom has one of thes'
direful transformations been effected with

T The common fuency Of speech. in
many men, and most women, is owing to
scarcity of matter and scarcity oi
words; for whoever is master of language
and has mind full Of ideas. will be apt
in speaking to hesitate on both; whereas,
common speakers have only one set Of
ideas, and one suit of words to clothe them
in; and these are always ready at the
moush-so people can come faster out Of

The Present Moment.

There is no moment like the present;
not only so, but, moreover, there is no mo-
ment at all, that is, no instant force and
energy. butin the present. The man who
will not execute his resolutions when they
are fresh upon him can have no hope from
them afterwards; they will be dissipated,
lost and perish in the hurry and skurry Of
the world. or sunk in the slough of indo-
lence.-Self Culture.

POETRY Y.
YOUTH AND AGE.


often think that each tottering form
That limps along in life's decline,
Once bore heart as young. as warm.
7o As full of idle thoughts as mine
And each has had its dreams of joy,
It's own unequaled, pure romance;
Commencing when the blushing boy
First thrills at wpman's lovely glance.
Aud each could tell his tale ofyouth.
Would think its scenes Of love evince
More passion. more unearthly truth
- Than any tale before or since.
Yes /! they could tell Of tender lays
At midnight penned in classic shades.
t,s And maids more fair than modern maids.
Ofwhispers in willing ear;
OF kisses on blushing cheek;
Each kiss, each whisper far too dear
Our modern lips to give or speak
OF passions too untimely crossed;
Ofpassions sighted or betrayed
OF fkindred spirits early lost.
And buds that blossomed but to fade.
OF besming eye and tresses gay,
Elastic form and noble brow,
And forms that have all passed away,
And left them what we see them now.
And is il thus-is human love
So very light and frail thing?
And must youths brightest vision move
Foreveren times restless wings?
Must All the eyes that still are bright,
And the lips that talk of bliss,
And all the forms 30 fair to sight,
= Hereafter oniy come to this ?
-iDl
Then what are earth's best visions worth.
If we at length must lose them thus
If all we value most on earth
Ere long must fade away from US.
