YOUTH.

Youth, with its happiness, is pre-
cious fund of Inheritance with which to
begin trading in a practical wisdom and
an active usefulness It is the time
when we learn by experience that hap
piness is actually attainable on earth,
and this fact alone supports man in his
moral life in succeeding years. IF once
taught that happiness is a climera, and
that momentary qualifications are the
only substitutes placed within his reach,
man is prone to lead wild, reckless life,
as experience abundantly proves. Our
happiness is much oftener thrown away,
in consequence of our actions, than
snatched from us by a superior power.
Youth is the time when we are taught
by experience to discard these destruct-
i've fallacies from our rules of action,
and we are prepared for life's great bat
ties. Happy, blessed youth! Who
does not love the bright eyes, the
happy faces, the winning ways, and the
rosy dreams of youth Nothing seems
to weigh down the boyant spirits then
and if misfortune chances to fall to its
lot, the shadows thus cast over its life
path are as feeting as the clouds that
come and go in an April sky. The
warm, generous impulses of nature
have not yet been cramped and bound
by the cold formalities of the world,
and the heart has not learned to veil its
false purposes with deceitful smiles, or
the tongue its basest desires beneath
honeyed words. 1t has cost the world
ages of experience to learn an apprecia-
ton of the position and character of
women, but it has not yet attained to a
knowledge of the true position, require
ments and character of youth. Here
we have an age of study spread out be-
fore us. Here we find an eloquent
teacher. It's generous ardor. its daunt-
less activity, its chivalrous sense OF
honor, its fond attachments, its hopeful
ness and truthfulness, its clear bright
eye, fair cheek, light and Joyous frame
how strangely unlike is all this to the
wrinkled brow and heavy tread, the
callous and deliberate selfshness by
which it is often succeeded? ? What a
fund of knowledge in the study of youth

view the shipwreck Of humanity with
a heart so, hard that not even sigh for
its relief escapes our lips. Thus we are
made to realize the truth that call is nnt
gold that glitters,' and that, too often,
the only objects which we think life
worth living for are mere shadows,
enemies or demons in disguise. By
such experience some learn lessons of
great worth to them in after life They
learn to investigate all things, before
they give their opinion either for or
against them. Thus they become think
ing men; pillars of support to society
and the State monuments of true moral
greatness, while others press the delu-
sions to their bosoms, and court their
own misery and destruction. But how
may we evade these delusions, and de-
tect the false gold that glitters in the
sunbeams of wanted prosperity; Our
first step is to doubt; this is the only
condition of philosophy. We are only
able to investigate any proposition on
the condition that we doubt its truthful
ness, for the very act of investigating
proves that we are, to some extent,
skeptical on that subject. I do not
mean that skepticism which doubts in
the face of asolute proof, but that skep-
ticism which requires proof before be-
lief. Then he who would reap the pure
gold of life, let him doubt philosophi-
eally, and investigate with patience.

EE Human nature is apt to eye with

much whether the thing moving is going
backward or forward. 1t is a little sim

lighted in his progress,as well they nigh
be, for it is a credit to, any town or city

serious, If Net Fatal. Accident,

We learn that Mr.. AUGUSTUS WALTON,
a son of Capt. JAMES WALTON, who lives
on the river, above Clarington, was Sc
riously if not fatally injured early in last
week. He had entered an old coal mine
for the purpose of clearing away the de-
6ris in order to mine COAL After reno
wing portion of the earth, body of
rocks and earth slipped in upon him,
mangling him in a horrible manner. His
arm was broken, the thigh bone of one
of his legs was crushed to pieces. and he
was otherwise badly bruised.
It is believed that without amputation
of the thigh he can not recover, and
this, under the circumstances, is deemed
a very dangerous experiment.
He is in the hands of DR.. JAMES
SMITH, a very competent surgeon.
