THE INDIAN SUMMER OF LIFE

IN the life Of the good man there is an
Indian summer more beautiful than that
Of the season; richer, SUMMER, and moro
sublime than the most glorious Indian
summer of the soul. When the glow Of
youth has departed, when the warmth Of
the middle age is gone, and the buds and
blossoms Of spring are changing to tho
sere and yellowleaf, then the mind Of the
good man, still ripe and vigorous, relax,
es its labors, and the memories ola we'll.
spent life gush forth from their secret
fountains, enriching, rejoicing and fertil'
izing; then the trustlul resignation of tho
Christian, sheds around sweet and holy
warmth, and the soul, assuming a heav.
emily lustre, is no longer restricted to the
narrow confines Of business, but scars far
beyond the winter ofhoary age, and dwells
peacefully and happily upon that bright
spring and summer which await him with.
in the gates Of Paradise evermore. Let us
strive for and look forward to an Indian
summer like this.

A TOAST.

The EDlToR.-The man who is expoc'
ted to know everything, tell all he knows
and guess at the rest; to make oath to his
own good character, establish the repu'
taton of his neighbors, and elect all cam
didates to office; to blow up everybody,
and reform the world; to live for the ben.
eft of others, and have the epitaph on
his toomhstone:--Here he lies his last
in short, he is locomotive running on
the track of notoriety; his level is his
pen, his boiler is filled with ink, his
tender is his scissors, and his driving
wheel is public opinion; and if he ever
explodes it is caused by the non pay
ment Of subscriptions.

FINE WORDS.

Kossuth, tho other day, addressed the
working classes Of Edinburgh, when he
closed his harrangue with the following
words:
The horizon is trembling with the re-
Elected light Of the rising sun Of liberty.
Be you, free people as you are, the lark
to greet the morn! Raise your voice in
the mountains and in your valleys, and
let it move over the face Of the waters
Let it be clearly UNDERSTOOD that the
British people want no proPPlng up OF
rickety thrones, and do not mean to cou'
pie the honorable name Of Great Britain
with that Of the murderer Of Hungary, the
TAILOR Of Italy, and the robber Of Poland!
| tell you. your voice will fall cheeringly
on the spirits Of the oppressed, as the
warming ray Of the sun falls on the chill
ing night.path Of the wanderer. So let
your free and noble voice go forth; lei it
be heard in good season, and God Almigh
ty bless you for it!

THE GOSPEL.

o, precious Gospel! Will any lnorcl'
less hand endevor to tear away from our
hearts this best, this last and sweetest av.
enue through which one ray Of hope can
enter? Would you tear from the aged
and nfrm poor the only prop on which
their souls can repose in peace? Would
you deprive the dying Of their only source
Of consolation? Would you let loose the
hood.gates oil every vice, and bring back
upon the earth the horrors disposition
or the atrocities of atheism? Then en-
deavor to subvert the gospel-throw
around you the fire brands of infdelity-
laugh at religion. and make mock offu'
turity; but be assured that for all these
things God will bring you to judgment.
l will persuade myself that regard for
the welfare Of their country, if no higher
motive, will induce men to respect the
Christian religion. And every pious
heart will say, rather let the light of the
sun be extingushed than the precious. light
ofthe Gospel.-Dr. Archibald alexander.
