ABEAUTlFUL EXTRACT. The glory Of sum.
mer has gone blythe beautiful greenness has
become withered and dead. Were this all
were there no associations of moral desolation,-
of faded hopes-of hearts wltheriDg 10 the
bosoms of the livipg-connecte with the dc.
cayiug scenery around US, We would not To-
dupe 10 moments melancholy. The season
of flowers will como again-the streams will
flow gracefully as before-the trees will again
toss their cumbrous heads Of greenncss to the
sunlight-aud by mossy stone aud winding riV-
Met tho coming blossoms will start up ct the
bidding Of their guardian. But the buman heart
has no change like that of nature. It has no
returning spring time. Oaco bllghted in It's
hour of freshness, it bears forever the mark Of
tho spoer. The dcws of affection may fall;
aDd the gentle rain OF sympathy, DO !aVlsheu
upon it-but the stone of blgbted feeling will
never agau:uakeo toto lite-nor the crushed
flowers of hope blossom with their wonted
beauty.
