THE CLOCK OF LIFE.

A father having taught his son to
fell the hour by the clock, said to
him: q" There is another clock-tha
clock of life, I mean" said he, "the
beating of your pulse; for it may
often remind you of the value OF time
and the necessity of turning 1t to
good account. Time is worth more
than the finest gold"
Ny pulse is the clock of my life;
Itshows how minutes are Aging
1t marks the departure of time,
And tells nae how fast AN dying,
He who lives day without doing
good loses a day ; and he who makes
another happy, is sure to be all the
happier for it himself.
Place your finger on your pulse,
as it beats; remember every beat
makes one less in your life.
You may think it will be a long
time before it will stop beating, but
il NAV stop very suddenly. If God
don't keep it wound up, the clock
would stop at any moment. Very
little disturbance of the running
works of the clock would stop 1t.
So a cold or fever, or fall. or a blow,
or ten thousand incidents that might
happen, would stop the beating OF
YOUR heart and pulse. We ought to
observe daily, and try to improve the
time while it passes. We will soon
b, in eternity, where they will no
longer reckon by hours and minutes,
or the beating of our pulses.
How long has your clock been run
ning9 You count it by years and
months, but it runs its round by
minutes, and even seconds. Each
tick tells of a change, and announces
to YOU that so much more OF your
life is gone, and that you are so much
nearer eternity.
We note the hours of the clock
daily to make our arrangements for
its duties. Men of business would
be punctual. They would not, for
any consideration, be too late to
meet an engagement with banker
or a merchant. But, alas! they keep
no engagement with God, their
Maker and Judge. God has the
hour fixed when they are to meet
him, and when it comes he will not
wait one moment for any engage
ment they may have. He has long
before and oftentimes called upon
them to measure their days, to get
ready for their account. At the tick
of the clock. sum mons will be, "Give
an account of thy stewardship"
What have you done with what the
Lord has entrusted to you
Bishop Kent wisely sets forth in
one of his hymns the spirit which
leads us to improvement of life;
awake my soul, and with the SUI
Thy daily stage of duty run
Shake of dull sloth, and joyful rise
To pay thy morning sacrifice.
Thy precious tine misspest, redeem
Each present dsv thy iast esteem.

Speak of something higher far.

If ye, IN your strong affection,
Urge your daughter no less strongly
To arise and be woman.

received from the West at this season Of the year,
will not keep in this climate any length OF time6
Mess well cared for; and to make the following
suggestion Corn shipped to the country foSs
consumption should be empted out of the sacks al
soon as it reaches the Plantation, and stirred every
few days until it becomes dry-by doing which
it will keep perfectly sound and good.
But if allowed to remain in the sacks, it will soon
commence heating, and ultimately become worth !
