A Beautiful Peroration.

10 re ent lecture on Asst onomy, by
Prof Mitchell that gentleman closed with the
following thrilling passage
Light iraverses space at the rate of twelve
million miles minute, yet the light from
the nearest star requires ten years to reach
the earth, and lerschei's telescope revealed
stars two thousand three hu dred times fur.
ther distant. The great telescope of Lord
Rose pursued these creations OF God still
deeper into space, and having resolved the
ncbulae of the Milky Way into stars, dis
covered other systems OF stars-beautlful
diamond points glittering through the black
darkness beyond When he beheld this
amazing abyss-when he saw these systems
scattered nrofusely throughout space-when
he reflected upon their immense distances.
their enormous magnitude, and the countless
mil ions of worlds that belonged to them, 1t
seemed to him as though the wild dream of
the German poet Was more than realized.
"God called man in dreams into the vesti-
bule of heaven, saying, come up hither and
will show thee the glory otmy house. And
to his angels who stood about his throne, he
said take him, strip him, of his robes of flesh
cleanse his affections put new breath into
his nostrils but touch not his human heart
the heart that fears, and hopes and trembes.
A moment, and il was done, and the man
stool ready for his unknown voyage. Under
the guidance of mighty angel, wi h sound
of flying pinions, they sped away from the
battlements of heaven Some time on the
mighty angels wings they fled through Saba
ras OF darkness, Wilderness of death. Al
length from distance not counted save III
the arithmetic of heaven-light beamed upon
them--a sleepy fame as seen through hazy
cloud They sped on in their terrible speed
to meet the light; the light with lesser sperc

As to poitetess, many have attempted to
define it. | believe it is best to be known by
descript on-defntion not being able to

call it "beneyolence in trihes," or the prefer

1t is a perpetual attention to the wants of
those with whom we are, by which attention
we either prevent or remove them. Bowling,

How noble, how self denying, how martyr.
like it is 10 feel that you have not friend
on earth that alone you support all the trials
and burdens of life and that all your most
arduous efforts are made for the good of
those who continually deride and persecute
you! O how sublime it is to behold every
thing cloh in gloom, deeper. darker, than
the blacklist midnight draped in Sackcoths
How gratifying it is to feel that you are
treading the same way Of bitterness and
anguish that earths great ones have so noby
trod before you: at length you begin to sink
beneath the burden. Darker, darker, grows
the clouds about you, till life seems scarce y

you are about to sink into despair 10 behold

What beautiful world 1t was never halt
so desirable How many noble, loving
friends are yours All! ali! ''the blues
have taken wings and flown away Do you
regret the agony you have suffered o, no.
The gorgeous splendors of the new light that
dawns upon you, the unalloyed happiness
that you enjoy, much more than compensate
you for what you have suffered. You wonder
that you could ever have seen anything but
brightness and beauty in your pathway, and
you are quite certain that "The Blues" vii

A Coon NAME-A good name is above all
price. Have you not found it SO, young man
you whose weli-known virtues have placed
you in position which you occupy with
feelings Of commendable pride? And you
whose fame has been the target of envious
tongues; have you not seen good name to
be the only breastplate that is impervious 10
the poisoned shafts of calumuy? Gold and
talent, what are these without a character
A light to render darkness visible; gliding
which, by contrast, makes the substance more
revolving Cherish it, then, all ye who pos
sess it; guard it carefuly-ior, depend upon
this, its purity once furnished, the most un-
wearying effort will hardly restore it to its
pristine lustre. Let it attend you through
the journey of life, browning your days with
peace and happiness. The rectitude which
won 1t will engravc upon your face letter of
recommendation to people of every nation
and tongue. And when the treasure is no
longer needful to you, it shall descend to your
posterity, legacy with which millions would
not bear to be compared.

The Departed.

WE search mid the summer the prints of their feet,
Their names in the woodlands old echoes repeat;
They have vanished from garden, from meadow, and
shore,
And meet their bright faces at the old hearth no
We miss the fond welcome, the pale tasping hands,
That have gone with the angels to the radiant lands
We miss them in sunshine, miss them III in,
But they with the moonlight and bless us again.

Love OF FLowERs.-Tell us not that the
love Of flowers Is an indication of weak and
efleninate taste; it is our manifestation of
the love of the beautiful d true. The
woman who loves flowers, becomes gentler
and more refined from observing and nurtur-
ing, aud associating as it were, with these
delicate children Of nature; and that man can
hardly be cold or hard-hearted, who finds
delight in Horticulture.

One by one thy duties wait thee,
Let thy whole strength 60 to each;
Let no future dream elate thee,
Learn thou first what these can teach,
One by one (bright gifts from Helven,)

Ready too, to let them 60.

Do not fear an armed band;
One will fade as others greet thee,-

The Baby.

Another little wave
Upon the sea Of life
Another soul to save,
Amid its toll and strife.
Two more little feet
To walk the dusty road;
To chose where two paths meet,
The narrow, and the broad.
Two more little hands
To work for good or til;
Two more little eyes,
Another little will.
Another heart to love,
Receiving love again,
And so the baby ca ne
A thing of joy and pain.
