False and True Friendship.

NV heaven preserve us from those
black hearted and detestable beings who
surround man in his seasons of prosper
ity. counting his favors and basklng in
his sunshine, willing to practice the most
devilish deceptions if they may thereby
"put money n their purse" and all the
while profess to be his friends. These
people are very good friends until man
needs friends. Then, when the dark
days come, when the storns OF adversely
beat against the one for whom so much
respect was hitherto manifested, these OBJ
sequious and fawning wretches turn their
backs and look out for new viotim.--,
Like sharks that have followed in the
wake of ship, watching for tho cook to
throw something overheard into their eX-
tended jaws, so these summer friends"
follow you while their is hope and while
you have favors TO dispensed When YOU
have nothing but tears to shed for the
treachery it has been said, you must weep
these tears alone. Alas that the holy
name Of friendship shcald be desecrsted
by connecting it with the hollow profss-
sions of goodwill which are SO often to
be observed in this world of heated strife
But there is beautiful sky beyond tho
storm clouds; the sun never ceases to
shine, though for ten days the heavens
may be o'erc;tst with gloom. And there
is friendship that never dieth, friend
ship which has existed through NIL the
centuries ; friendship for which many
in ihs olden time counted their lives not
dear unto themselves the pure affection
which animated many q martyrs soul
WI N inv &c ba r,archal IN thn
lay down his life for his friend which led
Damon to regard with rare delight the
privilege of offering himself as o substio
.ute for the condemned Pythias which
has in all ages hRllowed the intercourse of
noble hearts, and sticketh to the beloved
object through sunshine and storm even
down to the grave, and is permitted to
indulge the pleasing anticipation of re-
newing, after little more battling with
the world, the tender and loving commu-
nicaton which made life worth living for
here. Such friendships we have been all
lowed 10 observe, and they apologize for
the moment for the meaner actions of
men. EXamyles Of true Gev votion to
brothers cause, of unsetish loyalty to
what is noble in the human character, lift
good men above the damp earth atmos-
/ phere into purer realm. BY recognizing
and loving individual excellepcies, one
grows to recognition OF the true and the
beautiful IN all, and at length reaches
! that height where he feels that,
HE prayeth best who loveth best
All things both great and small
For the lea: God who loveth us,
He made and loveth all"

SPEAK NO ILL.

Nay speak no III IA kindly word
Can never leave sting behind, H
And, oh TO breath each tale we've heard
. Is far beneath noble mind.
Full of a better seed is sown ..
BY choosing thus tn, kinder plan
For IL but little good be known, ....
stillle US speak the bss! we can.
Give me tho heart that faip would hide
Il Would fain snothsr's faults eHace
How can IL please cen human prido
To prove humanity but base
No let US reach higher mood, ...
A pobler estimate Of man
Be earnest in the search Of good,
And speak Of all the best we can.
Then speak no ill--but lenieBt be
To others failings as your own;
II you're the frsta fault to see,
BE not the first to make II known.
For life is but q passing day,
No lip can tell row brief its span
Then, OH the littlo time we stay,
Let's speak Of all the best we can.
