Suspense.

believe that to the young suspense is the
most intolerable suffering. Active misery
always brings with it its own power of en-
durance. What common expression 1t is
to hear swell, if had known what had
to go through beforehand ! should never
have believed it possible that could have
done it," But it is a dreadful thing to be
left alone with your imagination-to have
to fancy the worst, and yet not know what
the worst may be; and this in early youth
has degree of acute anguish that after
years cannot know. As we advance in life
we find all things here too utterly worthless
TO grieve over them as we once could grieve I;
we grow cold and careless the dust TO which
we are Fastening has entered into our hearts.

Economy of Nature.

How beautifully does the law of proper
ton run through all the handiworks of God I
Those things which are most useful we
everywhere find the most common. How
cheap is steam, that mighty agency 1t is
but water, the most plentiful material given
to man. Suppose our iron mines were ex-
changed for gold mines, and uice persa, could
thousands of the precious metal compensate
the world for the loss of iron ? What could
make good the loss mankind would suffer
were our immense and unexpored fields of
coal to be changed into diamonds? We
can eat bread without butter, but butter
without bread would be a very poor Diet
