PROSPERITY ANT ADvEHsIrY.-Faitll and
friendship are seldom truly triel but IN es-
tremes. To find friends when we have no
need of them, and to want then, when we
have, are both alike easy and oInlnOn In
prosperity who will not profess to 1--we a man,
in adversely how few will show that they do
it. When we are happy in the spring tide
Of abundance, and the rising fl,ol Of plenty,
then the world will be our servants then all
around II. are with bowed heals with bend
ed bodies and protesting tongues. But when
these pleasing waters begin to cub, when our
wealth begins to leave ns, then men look up
ON us at a distance. Oar fortunes and our-
selves are SO closely linkel, that weknow not
which is the cause Of the love We find. When
these two part company, We may then discern
to which of them affection will cling.
