Monoton0ns Harmony.

As general thing, original people
people with wills and opinious-in
other words, interesting people, are
not, am inclined to believe, of cry
easy-going temper. The man who has
mind of his own usually wishes to
have his own way, and is, therefore.
not likely to BIO regarded rs in my con-
spicuous degree p easant. Whom it is
said OF o clergyman, ooh, he is very
good man." all church-going persons
at once get an idea of very dry SER
mons. (For the conveying of such a
compliment as this, oil the novels and
consonants together are not equal to
one lett handed innection.) The most
interesting character in Millions Para
disc Lost" is unqucstionably tue arch
fiend himself; and in the modern news
paper-epic poems being long out OF
dnte-no class OF persons, unless it be
political candidates, cut greater fig
ure than the criminals. There is no
doubt of it, good-nature and even q
good character-which things, l COM
fort myself with hoping, are not ex-
actly the same-do tend to grow some
what monotonous and tiresome. HUI
man nature is like m apple-.all the
more palatable for being triHe TART
No husband and wife ever lived to-
gether in greater mutual affection then
did Ella and his cousin Bridget, con-
corning whom we read, nevertheless,
ave agree pretty we'll in our tastes
and habits, yet so as with difference.
We are generally in harmony, with &C.
casional chickering's, as it should be
among near relative. Our sympathes
are rather understood than expressed /;
and once, upon my assembling tone
in my voice more kind than ordinary,
my cousin burst into tears and COM
planned that was altered.
A little flavor of individuality and
self-will is excellent for preventing in-
sipidity. Thus theoriZe. And why
not? If man is fond of his own ease
and his own way, always "notional, !"
often out of sorts and never very ami
able, why SHOULD he not shape his
theory to fit the facts?
All the while, however, I am con-
scious that could find much to say on
the other side. There used to be IL
funeral hymn Git may have gone out of
vogue ere this beginning, Sister, thou
vast mild and lovely the word
"lovely" being employed, take it, in
the. old-fashioned, dictionary sense Of
loyable, not in the new-fangled board
ing-school sense of beautiful; and 1
cannot help feeling that mildness,
.gentleness of spirit, is one of the traits
which most people like to attribute to
their friends, at least after they are
dead. 1t would sound rather odd and
incongruous-would it MOTTO sing
about the coffin, SISTER, thou vast
irascible and interesting" And even in
the case of the living, I must confess
to O preference for an equable and
obliging disposition, especially in
woman. I may be whimsical, but I
have never seen many who affected me
as uncomfor tably sweet-tempered.-
