The Shadow of Death.

We have rarely met with anything more
beautiful than the following which we find
in an exchange paper:
@All that live must die,
Passing through Nature 10 Eternity"
Men seldom think OF the great event of
death until the dark shadow falls across
their owE path, hiding forever from their
eyes the faces Of the loved ones whose liv-
ing smile was the sunlight of their exist
ence. Death is The great antasonism of life,
and the cold thought of the iomb, is the
skeleton al all our feasts. We do not wan:
to get through the dark valley. although its
passage may be lead 10 paradise; and with
Charles Lamb, we do not wish TO lie down
in the moucy grave, even with kings aad
princes for our bed fellows. But the fiat of
nature is inexorable. There is no appeal
or reprieve irom the great law that dooms
us all 10 dust. We flourish and fade like
the leaves of the forrest, and the fairest
flower that blooms and wilhers in day has
not Trailer hold on life than the mightiest
monarch that has ever shook the earth by
his footsteps. Generations of men appear
and vanish like the grass, and the countless
multitude that swarms the world to-day
will Tomorrow disappear ike the foot
prints on the shore.
In the beawiiuI drama Of lon, the insiict
Of immortality, 20 eIoquenhy uttered by the
death devoted Greek, finds deep,responss
in every thoughtful soul When about to
Yield his young existence as sacrifice TO
his beirotIed Cemathe asks if they shalt
not meet again, to which he replies:
have asked that dreadful question OF the
hills that look eternal; OF the s'ars among
whose fields of azure my raised spirit hath
walked in glory. All were dumb. But
while gaze upon their living face, ! felt
here's something in the love which man.

And he stands in The conscript ranks,
