The Life of the Happy Man.

The happy man was born in the City of Re-
generation, in the Parish of Repentance unto
Life; he was educated at the School of Obedi-
ence, and now lives in the Plain of Perseverance;
he works at the Trade of Diligence, notwith-
standing he has large Estate In the County OF
Christian Contentment, and many times does
jobs OF Self Denial he wears the plain Garment
of Humility, and has better Suit to put on
when he goes to Court called the Robe of
Christ Righteousness he often walks In the
Valley ofSelf Abasement, and sometimes climbs
the Mountains of Spiritual Mindedness; he
breakfasts every Morning upon Spiritual Pray
er, and sups every Evening on the same he
has meat to eat which the World knows moth
ing of, and his drink is the sincere milk of the
Word Thus happy he lives and happy he dies.
Happy is he who has Gospel Submission in his
Will, due order in his Affections, sound Policy
in his mind, Sanctifying Grace in his Soul, real
Divinity in his Breast, true Humility in his
Heart, the Redeemer's Yoke on his Neck, a
Vain World under his Feet, and Crown of
Glory over his Head-happy is the life of such
one: In order to attain which, pray fervent-
ly, believe firmly, wait patiently, work abund-
antly, live holy, die daily, redeem your time,
love Christ, and long for Glory

Life s last hours are grand testing hours
death tries all principles and lays bare. all our
foundation. Many have acted the hypocrte In
life, who had to be honest in the hours of death.
Mlsglvings of heart, that we have kept secret
through life, have come out In death and many
also who seemed all right and fair for heaven
have had to declare that they have been self
deceived. A gentleman of renown was on his

A mother who had laughed at and ridiculed

her children should be called. They came. In
impassioned accents she addressed them: n

road ends in destruction. / did not believe it

the gate to heaven, though you may not see

departed to its account, while the household,

Mother father would you die thus? Oh,
no. Let us then point to heaven and lead the

NAPLES, April End, 1867.


Ny DEAR FRIEND Since leaving Rome, |
have led life of comparative idIeness-iif read
Ing, enjoying pleasant siesta, and watching
the ragged lazzaroni as they wallow in the
warm sunlight and chaunt their not unmusical
refralnsaAay be termed idleness Once | was
persuaded by the pleading eloquence OF the
boatmen to enter one OF their beautiful barges
and take trip to the romantic island of Santa
Lucia, and bathe In the light of the dark eyes
that belonged to bevies Of fascinating Italian
girls who haunt the marques and jip negus on
that enchanted retreat. But nothing trans
pired out OF the ordinary line.
On Friday last was lucky enough to receive
an invitation to visit the subterranean ruins OF
Pompeii, fifteen miles southeast of Naples =
An excavation on large scale was to be made
and that too In the presence Of the Minister of
the Royal Household. l. of course, joined the
party, and l assure you, | shall never regret it.
Pompeii, you are aware, was not buried by
lava, like Herculaneum, some seven miles near
er the city, but by ashes, sand and stones only,
at depth of only twelve or fifteen feet above
the buildings. 1t has been excavated much
more extensively than lIerculaneum-d disclosing
the city walls, streets, temples, theatres, the
forum, baths, monuments, private dwellings,,
domestic utensils &C., the whole conveying the
impression of Roman town in all the circum-
stantial reality Of its existence two thousand
years ago. The discovery of Pompeii has
thrown strong and steady light on many
points connected with the private life and econ
omy of the ancents, that were previously in
volved in the greatest obscurity. The small
number of skeletons discovered render it quite
certain that most of the inhabitants had timely
warning of the eruption of Mount Vesuvius,
and saved themselves by flight. If you will
consult history you will find that the first known
eruption of Vesuvius took place on the 24th of
August, A. d. 70, when Herculaneum and
Pompeii were buried under showers of volcanic
ashes, sand, stone and lava and the elder PIiny
lost his life, being sufocated by the sulphurous
vapor as he approached to behold the wonder
ful Phenomona. 1t is related that such was
the immense quantity of volcanic ashes thrown
out during this eruption, the whole country was
involved In pitch darkness; and that the ashes
fell in Egypt, Syria, and various parts Of Asia
Minor Having thus helped your memory,
will proceed with an account OF my exploration
of the buried city.
We found a large body Of workmen busy with
their picks and shovels; but they ceased labor
as we passed on, resunlng it again after they
had stared at us sufficiently. The first place
we visited, under the charge Of the Superin
tendant, an important little parsonage, was a
kitchen lately laid open. Every thing wore the
appearanoe of order, and indicated that the
premises had been vacated IN hurry. On one
of the foruelH (smal square holes or fire places
over a he'd of extinguished charcoal and ashes
was copper vessel supported by tripod. =
This saucepan was hermetically closed and en-
