LII SO, now glorious MS future cong
Journal.
Such passages Of eloquent retrospective
and truthful pathos as the following, too
rarely gem the columns of the political
press:
The FUTURE AND THE PAsT.-The
celebration of great anniversary turns
the tide of memory back along the track
of Time. In the living action of the pres
ent--in the building up of the golden hopes
for the Future, the old, grey, misty Past
is forgotten:-its experiences are sighted
its blessings unrecalled-its sorrows blot
ted out-and its merciful chastenihgs un-
needed.
A year ago! Do not the words awaken
some stirring thought? Is not the page
of an eventful history opened to the eyes of
the heart?
Then the cycle of time that has passed
round so swiftly, was the future, too; filled
with as many roseate visions, alluring with
as many buoyant hopes, as that which now
spreads out before us. And what has
that history produced for us, of sorrows
that wither up our youth-of disappoint-
ments that dcaden our vital action-of
rich pleasures that elate, and vivify? Much
that is bitter; and much too that is sweet,
but, nothing that's useless, five but learn
from its teachings the grave lesson which
God has written on its pages.
Into the home where wealth, and com
fortdwelt, adversely has come with his heavy
footstep. But perchance improvidence has
invited him to enter; and the wisdom learn
ed of experience will build up new for
tune, more cared for, and more priced
The hand of disease hath been laid upon
the blooming check, and its roses are chan.
ged to the sickly hue of death;-but, whom
God loveth, he chasteneth' h'-and the affiic-
ton that lessons for us the Joys of earth,
draws us nearer Heaven.
Beside our hearth we sit, and gaze upon
the prints of tiny footsteps,-,-such prints
as the feet of angels might have left behind
them-all are leading towards the threshold
but none are returning, and the music
of infant mirth, a music that can make the
poorest home paradise comes no Longer
to our cars: it is hushed forever. On the
crest of yonder hill where the trees are
tipped with the golden lig ght of sunset
we can see them from where we sit----be
meath a small green mound, with a few
wild flowers, much of what made the beau
ty of our home, and the charm our life, il
resting.
But is there no consolation even here
In this bitter thought all bitterness? Dc
we not feel our claim to Heaven stronger
and our affinity more close, in the recol
lection that so much of all We cherished
here below is already in possession of the
inheritance which is equally our own!
With so gentle a pleader before the
throne, shall not our supplications find a
ready ear, and our frailties merciful con-
sideration?
In the starry night, we recognize amid
the glittcring orbs, violet eyes of infant
sweetness smiling down on us; and in the
seraph music that we ever hear in fancy,
thrilling the skies, we recognize now a
familiar voice.
Thus does the grief and suffering which
afiicts us here, draw closer the bonds
that unite us with Heaven. .---- Gin. Citi-
zen.
