The True End of a Home.

What is the end of human hab-
itation !? Is it merely a place
wherein fclow-mortals meet to eat,
drink, aud sleep securely beneath a
roof A house is reared to be q
home-the centre where family
may gather into one; to be Sc
rene retreat, where tenderest affec-
tons may find rest; that within
its walls love may have dwelling
place. and the charities of life gain
ample scope and happiness; that
parents and children may there
press one another heart to heart;
that sorrows and joys may be free
ly shared in confidence; that troub-
led spirits may disburden them
selves, and be blessed with pardon
and peace; and, in a word, that the
great work of training human be-
ings for the duties of the present
life and the perfection of another,
may. be begun and carried on.
These are the true ends ola human
dwelling. As we pass through the
streets ola city, what thought Of
underlying interest it is that with
in these numberless homes are rich
romances of domestic life-hearths,
round which are gathered, at
evening, the members of a family
scattered by day-husbands and
wives, parents and children, broth
ers and sisters-the sick and suf-
fcring nursed by the strong, the
aged waited on by the respectful
assiduity of the young, amidst all
the sympathies, labors, hopes, joys,
