Necessity Of Occupation.

1t is an imperative law of Nature, that
in order for any one to be happy, he
must have some occupation. The mind
is so constituted that it requires some OBJ
Iect on which its power may be exercised.
and without which it prays upon itself
and becomes miserable. A person &C
customed to life Of study, longs for
case and retirement; and when he has
accomplished this purpose, he finds him
self wretched. We are acquainted with
individuals whose early lives were pass
ed in active business pursuits, and who,
at the age Of forty, having acquired a
competence, have retired from business
with the intention of passing the remain
der of their days in leisure. For awhile
everything seemed pleasant and they
Aattered themselves that they could now
enjoy life and be happy. But they had
deceived themselves; their minds soon
became restless, and there was vast
amount Of time which they could not oc
cupy, and they have said that their hap
plest days were passed in business.
The pleasures Of relaxation can be
known only to those who have regular
and interesting occupation, and on this
account continued relaxation becomes a
WEAKNESS, and the mind becomes weary
of being inactive, and on this ground we
maintain that the greatest degree Of real
happiness and enjoyment is not realized
| by the luxurious men Of wealth. nor by
the listless votary Of fashion, but by the
middle classes Of society who along with
comforts Of life have constant occupa.
ton, which in itself proves one Of their
many sources Of happiness.
From these facts we draw the following
conclusion: That in order to be happy
the mind must have some employment,
but we would observe that it is not neces
sary for any person to make their occu
patton the sole end of their existence,
and pursue it with such energy as to
shorten their lives, but we believe that
occupation, with proper seasons Of re
taxation, is conducive to and actually
necessary for the happiness and welfare
Of every humsn being, and without it no
one can enjoy life.
