flows. Every spot of FIRE, therefore, does not
imply that fresh mouth has been opened but
that a rupture has taken place."

ilUMILIrY. is singular how littlc we ap-
precae the humility OF some men. One says
~ am ass! and we, cUinclding with him IN
sentiment, scarcely think of giving him credit
for his humility. We perhaps take the trouble
to approve his want OF vaniry--but this is only
MIGHT'VE sort of approbition. Humility seems
such mans provlnce--as natural TO him as
the grass to a snail. To be eapprecinted, lumili-
ty must manifest itself, in high ,turcs. We are
cnptivated by the spectacle Of highnrSs contrn-
ding itself with lowiness. The grass is natural
to the snail, but the house of the lark is the sky
and when h dcScendS 10 the meadow, we mind.
iul OF his il'etnesS of pinOn, marvel at his dee
scent, and love him for his simple humility -
The great Lyt,eton' was man of the most
p'Ifect modeSiy. A fine specimen of this may
be found in the last paragraph of his work upon
the English law: And know. my son, that
would not have thee believe that all which
have said in these books is law, for | will not
presume to take this upon M. But of those
things which are not law, inquire and learn of
my wise masters learned in the law"
Sir John Vaudeville, who wrote in the four
tccnrh century was also remarkable for his
modeSy as writer. Here is flne specimen of
it; 81, John MlundeviIe, knyghte abovescyd

Vanity in weak man is disgusting all pre-.
tension is disgusting. But "vanity is not slwOys
uncomeIy." The vanity of strong man is some
times beautiful. An instance or two Of this
beautiful vanity occur 10 u.s. Sone lines oi
Spenser-a part, we believe, Of the preface To
his Dreams of Pc Iaroh-run thus:
This thing he writ who framed n calendar.
Who enc inscribed on monument of brass
Words brillianter than light of moon or star,
And destyned to 1--WE till allie things pass"
Souhey, too, has given magnificent spcri-
men OF vanity in the opening to Madoc:

Come. for ye know rae; AMI he who framed

The Farmers Best Friends.

A. HOLLOWAY, MT. pRNDGEs, C, W.
Destroy not the birds;
They re the farmers best friends;-
For the little they spoil,
They make ample amends.
Some fruit they will eat;
But grudgc it them noG
For the good that they do
Should not be forgot.
They keep down the insects.
Who'e rapid increase
Would injure our harvests
Till harvests would cease.
With their songs they amuse
Our wcarisomc hours,
And their presence eniivens
The shadiest bowers.
Then forgive their slight Caults;
They make ample amends;
And do not forget
They're the farmers best friends.
