Early Associations.
BY EDWIN r. TowLE.

How sad are the results Of evil associa
tions; how bitter the fruits Of unhaIlowed
pleasures. What though they entice the
youthful mind with golden anticipations of
happiness without restraint; the end is the
wreck OF all moral and physical worth, the
destruction Of present and future hope and
a debasement, that willingly seeks oblivion
in the grave. How earnestly should the
young beware of evil companions, beware of
them who would lead them aslray, who would
do evil and count it no sin.
Think not, that because pleasure is prom
Used, this will be the reward seek not good
in sinful practices. Beware of the tempter's
device,-.'ti It's crafty and deceitful, an iga.us
fatuS, gilded snare, that secures its victim
with smiles, and leaves him not until shame
and disgrace have set their seal upon his
brow, and he is a thing to be reproached,
pited and forgotten.
Perhaps a score of years have gone by
since there occurred in my native town u
fearful illustration of the consequences ars-
ing from evil associations. This subject was
a young man, who had a short time previous
ly been united to young lady in marriage.
One night as he was away from home, he
came within the influence of social compan-
ions. who persuaded him against his will, to
ioin them in their drunken revel.
The time passed gaily by with them, and
he was constrained to drink again and again
The result Of this proceeding was but too
apparent OH his physical constitution, unused
to such treatment.
He started for home in state of intoxl-
cation, but the cold air of the winters night
chilled his blood, despite the fiery stimulus
he had taken His st. ength failed, and he
sat down by the roadside. He still possessed
sufficient reason to convince him that 1t would
be death to remain in state OF inactivity,
and as the cold air pierced his fame, he
struck his hands determinedly upon the fence
to keep the congcaling lije-blood in circulation
In this condition he remained through the
night and when found in the morning, his
hands and arms we're bruised and mangled in
his efforts to keep them from freezing-but
in vain, his limbs were frozen, and in this
condition he was taken home
What were the feelings OF the young wife
who had believed her husband the perfection
of manliness and strength, on bchoiding him
in this state, may be conceived but not des'
cribcd.
The suAerings that followed this nights
reye and exposure, must have been terrible
The flesh on the frozen parts came off from
the bones, and after remaining in this state
of misery Tor a few days, death came TO his
relief.
This is but one example among thousands
that have exhibited the fearful effects of eVl
ass Citations upon the destinies Of both ole
and young. Whata fearful import do the1
convey; what warning to beware even Q
the very appearance OF temptation, that
fearful result be not the consequence.

DEspoNDENcY.-When we behold in socie-
ty man who is ever looking upon the dark
side of life, we may safely conclude that the
fault lies not in outward circumstances, but
rather within his own heart. Such men are
like the man who shuts himself within d
darkened cell, and waits Tor Gods Hight
to iIlumine its recesses, when it is within his
own power to dispel the gloom. Thus, when
we close our hearts against the influences Of
God's love, We cannot hope for happiness
until we ope. it to the entrance Of the holy
spirit. ***

WelcOme ana lllc from OIL tile very WdIS,-
Seemed gone-and in the chamber where she lay
There was fearful and unhreathing hush,
Stiller than nights last hour
"Yet stay las 'twere twilight star
That sends It's thread across the wave,
see abrghtenng light from far,
Steal down a path beyond the graye!''
WILLIS SACRED Poems
It was in the still hours of night that
watched with friend beside the casket
which had once contained treasure out
weighing worlds in yalue--an immortal soul.
There were but few words spoken as we gazed
upon the features which few short weeks
before were instinct with life. Back into
the shadowy realms of the past went my
thoughts, and from memorys tablet | recalled
many scene 10 which she had mingled,
dreaming not that the shadow of the sable
wing would so soon rest upon her FORM
There were other thoughts too-of words
unkindly spoken, words never to be recalled
But the lips of the sleeper were sealed now
there could be no words Of forgiveness
spoken, and there Was need Of none. Pure,
and meetIor the indwelIing of Gods Spirit,
had her heart become, and naught dwelt
there save that hottest Of all emotions-peace
with God, and all with whom she associated
God knows the secrets of all hearts, and
He alone can know the desolation which
sweeps over the SOU, of those who have lost
household treasure Years had passed
and like the genial light of the evening stal
shining out from amid the surrounding gloom
SO had been the presence of The loved one il
the home circle when life's horizon seemed
overcast with clouds.
"She was all we had,' murmured the
mother as we left the room where reposet
the tenement of clay. Yes, all--save God
Her presence had shed a halo Of happiness il
the home now desolate, and when God remov
ed the gem whose value to them was price
less, should they not mourn?
Yet amid the clouds there were CLEANS o
golden light, and they mourned not as thos
without hope. Far from the strife and sill
Of this world, wearing the robes of such al
have found the pearl of great price, dwell
the spirit Of their child. The mortal ha
put ON immortality, the child of earth ha
become an heir of Heaven.
The morning dawns, and when the easter
sky is gorgeous with the first rays Of the goC
Of day, they bring naught of the joy tina
was wont to come with it. At every tur
mementos of the lost one meet their gaze
Gan 1T be that they are to listen no more t.
the voice which to them was 50 full Of mn
SCI What is life to them now? Much
everything!
A few years will fly swiftly by--long year
they may seem to them--and then beyon
the vale, within the city of the Eternal Klug
they will grasp once more the hand, fec
once more the kiss, see once more the bean
ing smile OF her from whom naught sha
ever separate them. MN
