Gone.

Did it ever strike you how much mean
ing lies in the monosylable--gone Say
it to yourself at night fall, when the sun
has sunk under the hills, and the crickets
chirp--'gone.' Say tito yourself when
the night is far over, and you awake with
a sudden start, from pleasant dreams
gone Say it TO yourself in some
country chuGch-yard where your mother
sleeps beneath blooming violets of spring
-.gone.' Say il in sobbing prayer to
heaven, as you cling lovingly, but oh,
how vainly to the hand of your dearest
fiend-'gone.'
Your friends have gone--they who have
counseled and advised yor, and who pro-
lec,ed Your weakness, will guard YOU no
more. One by one they have dropped a
way as you have journeyed on, and yet
your journey does not seem long one.
Lille at the longest is but bubble that
bursts as soon as it is rounded.

How 'She'' and How Gle Goes to Bed.
There is as much difference between
the manner in which a man retlres to the
couch, and woman, as between Virgin
ia rai-lencc and a one-horse almanac.
Man makes plain, straightiorward-Picce
Of business of it, Woman long, formal,
everlasting four-mile 'texercise." One OF
our exchanges thus makes out the two
pictures. VIII the reader try them both
''on," and see how they like them
"Going to bed we have always consld-
cred one of the most sober, serious and
solemn operations which man can De
engaged in during the whole twenty-four
hours. With young lady it is altogeth-
er a different thing. When bed time ar
rves, she trips up stairs with candle in
her hand, and-if she has had pleasant
company during the evening-with some
agreeable ideas in her head. The candle
on the toilet, and her luxuriant hair is
speedily emancipated from the thraldom
of combs and pins. If she usually wears
water curls, or uses the irons, her hair
is brushed carefully from her forehead, and
the whole mass compactly secured; if not,
why then her lovely tresses are soon hid
in innumerable otis of paper. This task
accomplished, a night cap appears, edged,
may be, with plain muslin, or may be
with heavy lace, which hides all, save her
own sweet countenance. As soon as she
ties the string, probably she takes peep
in her glass, and half smiles and half
bushes at what she sees. The light is
out--her fair delicate form gently presses
the couch-and like a dear innocent,
lovely creature, as she is, she falls gently
into sleep, with a sweet smile on her
sweeter face"
Four stories of cream-cakes, how nice.
How the dear must feel.

/ was Young but now am Old.
What a volume Of thought is awakened
by these words OF the old poet king Of Is
rael, especially when, as we repeat them,
we find our own experience correspond
ing with his. We were young long time
ago, and all youths delicious dreamngs
and exquisite hopes and cherished iIIu-
sions have been ours. We looked out up
on the world as fair and beautiful life
garden, whose every green shoots was to
bear some fragrant flower or luscious
fruit. How we revcled in the antlcipa-
ton of friendships and loves that seemed
to bcckon us 10 their bosom How We
reioiced in the confidence Of achievements
and triumphs dat awaited us in life
How we built OF castles in the air with
all the assurance which men ever fell
when building on granite or adamant
But we are getting old. Gray hairs are
sprinkled here and there, where formerly
naxen ringIets toyed and dallied with the
breeze. Pains and weakness of body re-
mind US OF departed buoyancy and vigor;
the friends of our youth are vanished; the
dreams Of youth are over and gone; the
golden haze of the future has given place to
cold, gray clouds, and wintry winds moan
around the decaying tabernacle of flesh.
Happy is it for those who, while growing
old, have been laying up treasure OF
sweet and vrtuous memories, and can
look forward to the close of life as to a
lying down to peaceful nights rest, in
expectation Of a bright and glorious morn,
