LlFE.-Nlen rejoice when the sun is risen;
they rejoice when it goes down; while they
are unconscious of the decay of their own
lives. Men rejoice at seeing the face OF n
new season, ms the arrival Of one greatly de.
sired. Nevertheless, the revolution of the
Seasons is the decay of human life. Frag.
ments Of drift wood, meeting in the wide
ocean, continue together n little space; thus
parents, wives, children, relatives, friends,
and riches remain with us buta short time
then separate, and the separation is inevitable.
No mortal man can escape the common lot;
he who mourns for departed relatives has no
power to make them return. Knowing that
the end Of life is death, every right minded
man ought to pursue that which is connected
with ultimate bliss.

putntion on the Governor. That officer had
his high respect and regard; nay, he greatly
admired him. But, while he had profound
respect for his exce!lcncy, he had none what

none. A man of the highest character, dig.
