You are brought into immediate contact

Move toward better life. Do not keep
your boys corn-shelling in the long winter
evenings. Make your farm place that
your sons and daughters cannot help loving.
Cultivate the trees-they are Gods messeD-

looks. You do care, else why did you build
that two-story white house, with blinds and
a cupola into which you never go? Or why
did you, years ago, carefully brush your coat,

Of the pruning-knife. Bring to your door

than the fashionable world would give you

Too LATE.-There is certain class of per-
sons, who from the cradle to the grave, have
but one prominent characteristic, and that
might be expressed in the few words--always
too late. Unfortunately for them they seem
to have been born an hour or two behind
time; and, do the best they can, scratch,
hurry and drive, they never do "catch up"
1t matters not what they promise to do or
where they promise to 60, one thing is eer-
tain-they will surely be too late. Such
people never succeed in anything they UNDER
take; the death-knell of their hopes and ex-
pectations is forever pealing-too late. The
booming cannon sounds, the plank is drawn,
and the huge steamer heaves out into the
broad blue ocean just as Monsieur Too Late,
lbag and baggage, reaches the wharf The
iron lungs of the fierce old locomotive shrek
out the sharp whistle and the massive train
goes leaping off just as the poor unfortunate
gets in sight. The numbering stage coach is
climbing the hill quarter of a mile away,
and his eager call fails to reach the ear Of
the boisterous post-boy. The pious exhortor
has reached his "sixthly" before our friend
Tardy reaches the long-drawn aisles, and all
he hears is just enough to pronounce his
DOOM" the harvest is past, the summer is
ended, and ye are not saved" Such man
can never succeed; too late is the fatal curse
which seals his life miserable failure. Had
he been in time his life Nigh have been 9
destiny fraught with blessing. Better be ar
hour too soon than five minutes too late; bet
ter 90 too fast than too slow better wait fol
others than let others wait Tor you; better
say now than by-and-by; better wear gu
than rust out; better pay your subscription
in advance than not at all ; better let you
}epitaph be too soon than too late.

The joys of Welded Love.

Fair promised sunbeams of terrestrial bliss,
Healths gallant hopes-and are We sunk to this
For in life's road though thorns abundant grow,
There still are joys poor Poll can never know;
Joys which the gay companions of her prime
Sip, as they drift along the stream Of time;
At eve to hear beside their tranquil home
The lifted latch, that speaks the lover come;
That love matured, nextpayful on the knee
To press the velvet lip Of infancy,
To stay the lettering sIep, the features trace;
Inestimable sweets of social peace .-Bloomfeid.

A Word TO LITTLE GIRLs.-Who is love.
ly? 1t is the little girl who drops sweet
words, kind words and pleasant smiles as she
passes along, who has kind word or sympa-
thy for every girl or boy she meets in trouble
and her kind hand to help her companions
out of difficulty; who never scowls, never
contends, never leases her mates, nor seeks in
any other way to diminish, but always to in.
crease their happiness. Would it please you
to pick up string of pearls, drops of good
diamonds and precious stones as you pass
along the streets? But these are the true
pearls and precious stones which can never be
lost. Take the hand Of the iricndless smile
on the sad and detected sympathizc with
those in trouble; strive everywhere to diffusc
around you sunshine and joy.

HUMAN NATURE The first works of re-
pentant consclenc are not virtue, and the first
products oil an awakened taste are not beau
ty; but in either ease the time for dtuuncia-
ton is at an end when these signs appear.
Its work is done as soon as the sparks fly up
wards, and not fire, but fuel, not abuse, but
encouragement, is the special want OF human
nature, when new love for what is holy, or
for what is beautiful, first begins to burn.

Written for the Green Mountain Freeman,
Memories.
Memory led me a race to-day,
Over the fields Of the Past;
Some with bleesn we're smiling away,
And some were withered with blast.
Now sat on fowery bank,
Living beautiful dream;
Ny heart in unison and sank
With the swell and the lull of the stream.
Anon stood on a dizzy height,
Scanning the coming years,
Hope pointed ME on with finger bright,
shaming away my fears.
But Memory drew me away, away
From these "reminiscences sweet;
Leading me on till we came to the day
When for US 1t was fated to meet.
A glory then shone my life that was far
More bright than all else had known;
But meteor flashed-it was not a STAR
For soon was its radiance gone!
Or hit still burnt is hidden from me,
A shadow has fallen between,
Yet Memory oft leads me back there to see,
What was, and what might have been!
VII.
oh, had dreamed of what waited below,
When dwelt by that beautiful river,
My feet had surely refused to go
had fingered and fingered forever!

That is proverb so is the pointed dec
laration-
Gan on earth Is shadow, all beyond
Is Substance !"
and still more unquestionably the following,
for it has long since passed into the common
parlance of the world, in use among many
people who know not the name of its author
Gan men think all men mortal but themselves"
What filter apologize to the conscience
than this imaginative line?
"The spirit walks of every day deceased"
An aspiration is hardly proverbial, or we
would instance the appeal of Lorenzo
40 for the yesterdays to comet
OF the following there is no question it
is declarative, and fulfills every condition of
proverb
Love, and love only, is the loan for love.''
Similar to this expression:
Hearts are proprietors of all applause"
So, too, the often-remarked creative efforts
of the imagination in enhancngthe terrors Of
DEATH
Man makes a death which nature made"
1t is to Young, and not to Goldsmith, that
we should assign the sentence-they both
have it, but the latter borrowed it
Man wants but little; that little long"
A proverb should be in one line; but the
privilege may be extended to so fine a saying
as the celebrated
Farh's hi CHEST station ends in Here he es,'
And 'dust to dust concludes her noblest song"
It would be well if some of those loudest
in their praises of Young, would bear in mind
the following
"'ris impious in good to be sad"
The concluding line Of the Fourth Night
is memorable:
"Men live FOOLS but fools they cannot die.'
What world of trouble the following
might save critics and fault finders! 1t quite
puts out the lantern of Diogenes:
"'Tis vain to seek in men more than man."
Solomon has been before Young with this !:
1.-THE man of wisdom is the Of years."
How often has the experience of the world
pointed to the following
" Death loves shining mark, signal blow'
There is nobleness which cannot be too
familiar to us in this:
sour hearts ne'er bow but to superior WORTH"
with its accompanying gloss:
"Pigmies pigmes still, though perched on Alps"
A great hero who acquired reputation
some years since by Jumping off precipices
into rivers, nmortalized himself by an ad
vance beyond the proposition
Sand all may do what has by man been done"
An ALTERATION does justice to noble
sentiment in the following:
"'Tissnoral grandeur makes the mighty man."
There is also much virtue in the lines
The that bushes is not quite brute"
" Procrastination Is the thief Of time ~
you may hear anywhere, on change, incount
lighthouses, in the streets.
These examples might be multiplied a
will.
