The First Grey HOir.

Here II is. wee bit Of silver thread, yet
on its slender form hargS . tale Of sufficient
weight TO bear down the spirits, and load tho
mind with unpleasant reflections. 1t tells
that chidhood's days are past, the only days
of unalloyed peaSu:ed days in which we
laughed and sported al day long unconscious
Of future ills, days in which we dreamed not
of sorrow. 1t tells Of boyhood's days when
hilarity was our greatest characteristic and
the schoolmaster's rod our only fear days in
which in farcy we acted over future life, as
warrior winning battles and conquering ma
tions. and then returning in triumph from
hero's achievements TO claim the hand Of our
Dulcina, then the little blue.eyed girl of our
acquaintance. 1t tells Of our college days,
when we labored up the hill Of knowledge,
and struggled hard for the mark of its hon-
ors; days Of college Friendships which We
thought, were endless, some of which are SO.
but Others. alas, are ended by neglect, and
the object passing below our friendship, IN in-
temperance and disgrace. 1t tells Of boy
hoods love us true, perhaps, as any, but not
so stable; of our youthful manhoods love,
when we admire the object Of our affection
as a pure faultless being; yea, a9 an angel
of perfection seat 70. aerth expressly to make
rs happy; but, alas it was delusive iancy,
and now is past. 1t teHs Of disappointed
homes and aspirations Of youth when, indeed,
Hone told Gattering tale" promising
wealth aud fame. 1t tells many misspent
honr, of misdeeds that brings. the blush of
shame to the cheek to- think of. 1t reminds
us Of our gray-haired. father, when first the
frost of age began tos settle on his manly
head. and reminds us that, like him, we soon
must totter with age, or lie down in death
IL reminds us of that grey-haired mother.
whose life has been continual sacrifice to
our comfort, too often repaid by unkindness,
1t reminds US that We are passing away, and
soon must be forgotten. Much more il tells
us that is profitable for reproof, for ediicA'
ton, and for betterilg the heart,

DICKEN's PICTURE OF WoNAS.-The true
woman, for whose ambition q husbands love
and her children's alteration are sufficient,
who applies her military instincts 10 the dis
cipline of her household, and whose legisla-
tives exercise themselves in making laws for
her nuise whose intellect has field enough
for her in communion with her husband, and
whose heart asks no other honors than his
love and admiration woman who does not
think it weakness to attend TO her toilet,
and who does not disdain to be beautiful ;
who believes in the virtue Of glossy hair and
well fitting gowns, and who esolewS rents
and ravelled edges, slip.shod shoes and auda-
clous make ups; a woman who speaks low
and does not speak much who loves more
than she reasons, and yet does not love blind
ly; who never argues, but adjusts with a
smile such a woman is the wife we have al
dreamed of once in our lives, and is the mo-
ther We still worship in the backward distance
Of the past.
