Ir is a striking fact that the dy-
ing never weep. The sObbing, the
heart breaking agony of the circle Of
friends around the death-bed, call
forth no responsive tears from the
dying. Is it because he is insensi-
bic, and stiff in the chill Of dissOlu-
ton That cannot be, for he asks
for his fathers hand, as if to gain
strength in the mortal struggle, and
on the breast of his mother, sister or
brother, in still conscious affection.
Just before expiring, lie calls the
loved ones, and with quivering lips
says, kiss me-" showing that the
love which lie has ever born in his
heart is still fresh and warm. 1t
must be because the dying have
reached point too deep for earthly
sorrows, too transcendant for weep
ng. They are face to face with
other and holier things, with the
Father in Heaven and His angels
There is no weeping in that blessed |
abode to which he is fastening"

SINCERITY.

The remark OF a little girl, that
nshe would like to retire into a con-
vent, for the world was hollow and
her dolls were stuffed with saw-dust,"
is but an amusing illustration Of the
fact, that too early in life do we re-
alize that the world is, indeed. a
sham, and our friends are not what
they seem.
SO easy is it to stimulate friSnd-
ship, so often do "hypocrisy and dS+
ceit" assume the garb of sincerity
and TRUTH" that a person must be.
we'll skilled in reading the human
heart, to discern between the true
and false; even those; who have
prided themselves on their discrimi-
nation in this respect, have been de-
ceived, and only too late discovered
that which they believed to be a
genuine friendship was but base
and worthless imitation. Many in
stances might be given Of the truth
of the remarks. "Eyery heart
knoweth its own bitterness" but
could the history of these sad hearts
be written out, it would be seen that
large proportion of the misery and
unhappiness in the world, is caused
by betrayed and insulted friendship.
What language can be too strong to
express the contempt felt by every
honorable person, for the man, OF
woman, who strives, with professions
Of unlimited friendship and regard
to gain the confidence Of another
simply for the furtherance of theil
own selfish ends. To be thus de
ceived, cannot Tut tend to lesser
our faith in that which was intendeC
by our Creator, to be the hottest anC
purest emotion of our nature, anC
lead to involuntarily mistrust al
with whom we may be associated
1t often calls into existence, or rath
er arouscs the baser passions OF thu
human heart, changing love into ha
tired, and strong desire for retalia
ton, only restrained by the thought
that, "sooner or later" "thc meas
urc which they meet out to ether
will be measured to them again. -
We would not be considered as en-
tircly skeptical of the existence q
pure and abiding friendship; that
is "plant Of rare growth, "none Wi
deny. Still there are many nobl
souls, both men and women, VIII
have bravcly withstood the test, an
through misfortune, poverty, an
: even disgrace, have remained faith
full to those who have honorcd thel
with their aliectionate regard.

Had HIS MArCn.-A young attor-
ney, with huge bundle of papers
in hand, appeared for the first time
in Judge Us court in st. Louis, to
make the annual settlement Of some
estate. Handing the papers to the
Judge, he very modestly explained
his business to him. His Honor eX-
amined the papers, and then showing
them angrily aside, and looking the
young hopeful almost through, ex-
claimed:
"Sir, do you take me for fool =
"Well, y replied the lawyer, "this
is the first time l have had the pleas
urc of seeing your honor, and there
fore cannot say from my own
knowledge whether you are fool or
not"
His honor was somewhat taken
aback being thus bearded, and so
said, in milder tone, "Do you
take the Legislature of the State of
Missouri for fools, then, Sir 2"
"Well, as to that" was the re-
ioinder, 81 know nothing personally
about any Of them, your honor; but,
from what can see and hear, am
disposed to believe them not . whit
wiser than they ought to be, and
perhaps, your honor, that is your
case, too" The old Judge had met
his match, was vanquished, and
yielded meelsIy as a lamb to his vic
tor.
