LoyER.-A man who, in his anxiety
to obtain possession of another, has
lost possession Of himself. Lovers are
seldom tired Of one anothers society.
because they are always speaking o.
themselves. Let US not, however, dis
parage this fond infatuation, for all its
tendencies are eleyating. BE who had
passed through life withoutsever being
in love, has bad no springtime no
summer in bis existence; bis heart is as
a Towering plant which hath never
NEVER developed itself-never put
forll, It's beauty andits perfume-neyel
given nor received pleasure. The love
Of our youth, ike kennel, is 50 inhama.
BE, that it may be kindled By almost
any match; but if its transient blaze dc
not pass away in smoke, its flame, toe
bright and ardent to last long, soon ex
hausts and consumes itself. The love
of our rnaturer age is ike coke, which
| when once ignited, burns with steady
and enduring heat, emitting neitbe
smoke nor fame. No wonder that v,
hear so much Of the sorrows Of love
for there is . pleasure even in dwelling
uponits pains. ReveIliug in tears, i
1 fire, ike that Of naptha, likes to swim
upon water.

HoME WITHOUT A MOTHER.

What is home without q mother.
Sure its holiest charm is fed;
There may be the sister--brother,
Yet it lacks its gentle head.
What is home without mother,
When the evening hearth burns fair,
And q group who love each other,
Bound in peace are gathered there !
YET there's one, word controlling,
Ruled each scene of home-born joy;
She is goae-and naught consoling,
Can remove grief's dark alloy.
Hark the sacred chime is tolling!
S.veetly falls its measured swell;
Memory o'er my heart is rolling
Mother loved that sabbath bell.
See the page of inspiration
Spreads its leaf devinely fair,
Breathing peace and resignation,
Mothers name is written there.
What is home without mother,
While ascends the household payer!
God is here--our grief we smother,
For her place is vacant there.
What is home without another,
When afliction DER it breaksi
Friends are there-yet there's another
That the heart with longing seeks.
Turn,nly soul to where brightm mansions
By thy God are opened fair;
'Thoa shalt find-'mid joy expansion,
Heaven, and Home, and Mother, there
