HAPPINESS NOT IN STATION ALoNR.-There is
one experience, gentlemen, TO which the his
tory OF my various changes in life has peculiar
", and, / will even say has painfully expos
ed me-and that is, how little man gains, or
rather indeed, how much he loses in the hap
piness Of natural and healthiul enjoyment IN
passing from narrower to wider, aud what
some may call, more elevated sphere. There
is not room in the heart oil man Tor more than
a certain number Of objects; and he is there
fore placed far more fayorably for the develop
ment of all that pleasure which lies in the
kind and friendly affections OF nature, when
the intimacy OF his regards is permitted torest
ON a few, than when, hustled through an in
terlninable variety Of persons and things, each
individual can have but slender hold upon
the memory and hold as slender upon tho
emotions. Chalmers.

"WHITHER SHALL GO FROM THY SPIRIT"
The God of heaven is the controller of all
events Every change. through the universe
which lie hath created, wears the impress Of
HIS agency. The most important and the
most minute results point unerlingly to Him.
The birth of the smallest insect, and the Gre
alton of mighty universe, are alike the eff
feets of His almighty power. He extends that
great central law, which binds planet in its
sphere, to the dew drop that trembles on the
leaf of the rose. He heaves the turbid ocean,
and curls the surface of the sleeping lake
He plunges the laundering cataract down in
to its awful depth, and quiet and peaceful
vale. He unbinds the earthquake that is to
overthrow cities, aud lends sweet music to the
lay of the morning lark. From the bright
seraph that kneels on the footsteps OF His
burning throne, to the pebble that paves the
sunless eaverns Of the deep, all is seen and all
is heard. No note, expressive of happiness or
sorrow. escapes His ear. The vail Of ma
ton aud the cry of young raven come up
alike before him. He, hears the soul sick con-
fession of the desolate captive. He marks the
distress that wraps the palaces of the great in
weeds, and the disappointments that invade
the simple hopes of the cottage. He is By the
side of departing age, and the dying eoueh Of
infant life. The tears of the great and the
small, the rich and the poor. are mingled in
ore cup before Him. And this holy God is
ours; our Father and our frend our guide
and protector the rugged paths Of life; our
last and only refuge in the hour Of death. To
love and serve Him in this world is our hap
piness, duty, and highest moral dignity

SATURDAY EVENING READING.

IMPL0RING GODS PRESENCE.
When Israel, Of the Lord beloved
Out of the land Of bondage came,
Her fathers God before her novel,
Anawful guide in smoke and fame.
By day along the astonished land
The cloudy pillar gidel slow
By night, ArIbia's crimsoned sand
Returned the fiery columns glow.
Thus present still, though nov u-seen.
Where brightly shines the prosperous day,
Be thoughts of Thes a cloudy screen,
To temper the d;eetul ray
And, oh. when stoops upon path,
IN shade and storm, the frequent night,
Be Thou long suffering, slow to wrath,
burning and shining light

BENEvoLENcE AND HAPPINRss.-A life of
passionate qualification is not to be compared
to life Of active beneyolence. God has so con-
stituted our nature that man cannot be happy,
unless he is, or thinks he is, means of good.
Judging from our own experience, we cannot
conceive of more unutterable wretehedness,
than is furnished by one who knows that he
is wholly useless in the world. Give a man
what you please, surround him with all the
means of qualification and vet let the convc-
ton come home to him, clear and irresistible,
that there is not being in Gods univ erse,
whit better or happier for his existence; let
him feel that he is thus a blot upon. because
a blank i'll the universe, and the universe will
not furnish more unhappy being. Herehes
the solution of that, to Inany inexplcable
fact, that the schemes of mere selfshness,
however wisely laid, however theoretically
and successfully prosecuted, never add to the
joy, but always to the pain, OF those who
originate and are engaged in them. 1t is not
so with man OF opposite characteristics.
Take from him what You please, and YOU do
not take from him the clements of his Joy, if
you leave him the conviction that in any way
he is useful If you contract the circle and
diminish the sphere of his influence, YOU de-
tract from his joys only as you detract from
the means of his doing good. And, MS we
cannot conceive of a more wretched beng,
than one who feels himself to be the slave of
uncontrolled selhshuess, SO we cannot con-
ceive of happier being than the man of
truly benevolent heart, whose wishes describe
the circle and bound the sphere of his nAu-
ence, and whose means are ann lie to give those
wishes a full expression.
