surly Winter is entirely gone and
freshness and vigor are impaired to

Their thousand notes of praise,
And all that by his mercy live,
To God their offering raise.

And sees the fre 81 array

Along his careless way.
Various methods, indicative of the
general joy of youthful hearts, will no
doubt be proposed for celebrating the
advent of the floral month. Parties,
pic-nics, fishing excursions, &c, will
be in vogue, and we predict good

any of these appropriate and delight

willperform Flora's Festival. A small

the affairs of This world will be wound
up on the 18th Of next June, is Great
ing considerable excitement in Par
is. The smash will be caused by a
tremendous comet coming in contact
with the earth. Other learned The
bans say that the comet is coming but
they do not believe in the smash. -
1t is favorite trick, however, Of zeal
OTIS who try to arouse the fears rather
than the reason of their hearers to
predict the destruction of the world.
Yet as it is a part ola great Creation,
mutually dependent and subjected to
the same laws, and nothing yet crea-
ted has ever been annihiIitated. as far
as we know or can imagine, there is
no reason for believing that this globe
will ever be subject to calamity,
which would doubtless be felt through
out the universe. 1t has endured for
thousands Of years. Notwithstanding
its own internal disturbances, and
will, in all probability, roll on for
thousands of years longer, till the pur-
pose of its creation is fulfilled.
But for fear smash up" should oc
cur, we warningly suggest that all
delinquent subscribers to newspapers
pay up forthwith, if they wish to es-
cape unframed. That's our advice.
