OLD FRIENDS.

Whatever attractions new faces and new
friends may present, and in the changing
events of progressing condition they may
be many, DO not throw off or disregard those
who have clung to you in the chequered past
Life NAV not have been all sunshine! There
NAV have been moments when sorrow, with
its crushing weight, has borne you down al
most 10 the dust. in those dark hours,
friendship, holy and pure-not acting from
1--we of elevation, or selfish interest-lIfted
your spirits up, by the consolation OF kind
words. and whsperings Of hope for the To-
ture. Would YOU cast off these friends OF
your adyersity, because in your prosperity
YOU NAV not need them? Have you ever
tossed in anguish upon bed of sickness!--
There came hand, prompted by kindly
heart, to perform those Offices that seem ut
ted only for friends. The aching head is
SUPP Orted and manipulated, until 1t Woulu
seem that pain was fairly driven away By
the perseverance, of the laborer. If there be
one period more than another when friend
ship is more valuable than all other interests
but love. it IL when helpless, from nirmIties.
and unable t. do tor ourselves. What mere
ci her-how helpless-how altogether depen-
dent upon others-how grateful for kindness
es, We then are. And all along our road,
from infancy 10 old age, from the cradle to
the grave, we have need of those offices that
friendship can perform. To public life it
lends an added weight. Standing alone, We
Gao accomplish but little; united IN friend
ship with others, We may effect much. In
private lfe friendship is the very essence OF
sUcability. No one, be their condition high
or low, rich or poor can exist satisfactorily
to them..ves, or benefcally to Others if they
wrap themselves in coidness that repels Ia
miliarity. 1t is as necessary to the heart, as
sustenance is to the body, or relaxation to the
mind. Those who have the most friends
may not be the most happy, while they who
have none, must certainly be wretcbed. Trace
the history of the past! Can we fud any
great OF good man, who did not, in the begin
ming at least, possess troops Of friendsf Fol-
low them to the end were not their sOrrows
nay, their very dowtall--precipitated by
their Own act in diseardng old and tried
friends for new? Mankind are prone 10
make this mistake. When q change of for
tune for the better ensues, they aspire to
make other friends in their new condition,
and disrcs csarding the claims Of those who
have clung to them in times past, court the
one AMI ignore the other. This advice is as
old as the Mosaic law, "Do not discard old
friends for new" You may odd to your
plumber if ycu will, but never take kind
thought from faithful heart to bestow upon
one untried.-- Orange Chronicle.
