The ENJOYMENT OF OCCUPATIoN.-The
mind requires some object OH which its
powers must be exercised, and without
which il preys upon itself and beromes
miserable. A person accustomed TO a
life o. activity longs for ease and retire.
ment, and when he has accomplished
this purpose finds himself wretched.
The pleasure of relaxation is known to
those only who have regular and inter-
esting occupation. Continued relaxa-
ton soon becomes II WEAKNESS and, on
this ground, we may safely assert that
the greatest degree of real enjoyment
belongs not to the luxurious man of
wealth, or the listless votary of fashion,
but TO the middle classes of society,
who, along with the comforts of life,
have constant and important occupa-
ton.

THE PULPIT.

Every pulpit is "a representative struc-
ture. II stands for and expresses the
fact that man is religious being that
he is conscious OF deep spiritual wants;
that ne has had religious history that
there are truths, higher than the capac-
iiy of human reason. which can meet
his needs. satisfy his heart, aud prepare
him for his destiny.
The State House is o representative
structure. setting forth mans need of
social order and commemoraiin9 the
history Of It's attainment. AID the writ
ten constitutions BY which il Is upheld.
The Judges seat in n court room Is a
representative structure. testifyipg TO
the ineradicable instinct Of justice in
human nature. and emblcmatic of GER
tain Law in which the popular ideas of
justice are concentrated. The profess
or's chair in college is also representa-
tive of the intellectual appetite in hu-
mainly, and of the triumphs of genius
and the acquisition Of learning by which
that native hunger may be fed.
Now, just as the State House stands
for the fact that we are social beings;
the judges seat, that we are moral be-
ings; aud the academic chair. that we
are intellectual Ones-the pulpit stands
az symbol that we are equally and
fundamentally religious natures; that
the religious estimate OF man and theo-
ry of life can alone express the truth of
things. In IL the religious instincts of
human bosoms, and the truths which
society contains az an answer to those
instincts, converge and come TO n focus.
The sanction of the pu pit. therefore,
is the existence of this religious element
In man. just as the court room rests
upon human reverence for equity. the
pulpit is built as an oracle over those
mystic and holy depths in the structure
Of humanity from which the whispers
of the Infinite arise; and. through the
pulpit, they should break in impressive
calculations TO the world. The need
of the pulpit, therefore, is the need
which human nature has Of some struc-
ture, symbolic of the religious elements
in its constitution. and OF the religious
truths that have been given to the race
and its Office is TO stimulate the religious
sense, and to interpret those spiritual
truths.
In this light, there should seem to be
no more question of the perpetuity OF
the pulpit than there is of the glory OF
its Office.
