CRTHE FIRST AND LAST MINUTE
Minnies pass.— The anxious husband pares
slowly across his study- He i* a father: -,
man child is born unto him. Minutes pass—
me rhJd has been blessed by a parent whom
it cannot recognize, and pressed to that bosom,
to which instinct alone guides for sustenance ;
the young wile too has faintly answered to a
husband’s questions, and fell his warm kiss on
her forehead.
Hours pass.— The low moaning from the
closely -ove/ed cradle, tell of the first wants of
its infant occup.-nt. The quiet tread of the
nurse speaks of suffering around her ; while her
glad coi;ntena:ice says that the very suffering
wtuch she is trying to elleviate is a source <»i
joy. and the nameless articles which, from
time to tune, she a’ranges on the hearth, teh
of a new claimant for the courtesies and atten
tion of those, who nave progressed iuriher on
the pa hway of existence.
Days pass.— Visitors are thronging the
chamber, and the mother, pale aud interesting
after her recent sickness, is receiving 'heir
congratulations, and listening proudly to their
praises of the little treasure, which lies asleep
in its rocking-bed nt her feet. The scene
shifts, and the father is there with her ulone, as
the twilight deepens about them, while they
are plnnoing the future destiny of their child.
Weeks pass.— The eyes of tho young mo
ther are spaikling with health, and the rose
blooms again on her cheek, and the cares of
pleasure and home engage her attention; and 1
the father is once more mingling with the world;
—yet they find many opportunities each day in
visit the young inheritor of life—to watch over
his dreamless slumber—to tiace each other’s
looks in Ins countenance, and to ponder upon
the fehcitv. of which he is the bearer to them.
Months pass— The cradle is deserted But
'he chamber ll .or is str.-.ved wiiti ;>iav things,
’tiid 'heie is a illile one loilenng among the n,
whose ha’f-lisped words, and hearty laugh and
sunny countenance, tell you, that the entrance
into life is over a pathway of flowers. The
cradle is empty, but the last prayers of the
parents are uttered over the small mb, which
stands by their own bedside, and their latest
attention is given to the peaceful breathings of
its occupant.
Years pass.— Childhood has strengthened
into boyhood, and gamboled along into man
hood.—Old connexions are broken—parents
are sleeping in their graves—new intimacies
•re formed—a new home is about him, new
cares distract. He is abroad, struggling amid
the business of life, or resting from it with those
whom he has chosen from his own generation.
Time ts beginning t<» wrinkle his forehead, and
ihonght has robbed look* oi Hretr jjaieiy,
cud study has dimmed hie eyes. Those who
began life after he had grown up, are fast crow
ding him out of it, and there are many claim
ante upon his industry and love for protection
and support.
Years pass.— His own children have become
men, and are quitting him, uh he also quitted
the home ol his fathers. Hh steps h ive lost
their elasticity—his hiind has become familiar
with the cane, to which h»* is obliged to trust
in h'B walks. H»* has left the bustle which fa
tigued him. lie looks anxio sly m each day’s
paper among the deaths—and then pondera
over the name of an old friend, and tries to
persuade himselfthai he is younger and stron
ger, and h-ta a better hold upon life, than acy
ol his rontempor-xries.
Months pass— He gradually diminishes the
eir* le ui his activity. He dislikes to go abroad,
where ht finds so many new faces; and he
grieves to meet his former companions, after a
short absence, they seem to have grown so old
and mhrm. Quiet enjoyments only are relished
—a hill-' couversution about old limes—a so
ber game at wdat—a religious treatise—aud
his early bed, form for him the sum total of his
pleasures.
Weeks pass.— lnfirmity keeps him in his
chamber. Hut walks are limited io the umall
space between his easy chair and his bed.
Hts swollen iimbsare wrapp' din flannels. His
sight is failing—his e -rs refuse then duty, and
his i up in but hall filled, since, odierwise, his
shaking hand cannot carry it to his shrunk lips
without soiling us coments. Him powers are
wesken* d—his taculues are blunted—hi
strength is lost.
Days pass. — The old man does not le >vc hi*
.< d—his memory is failing—he talks, out can
.,»»t be understood —he usks questions, but they
■ .-late to die trausxrtious of a former genera
non —he speaks of occurrences, but the recol
•eciioii* «i no one around him can go ba< k to
nei scenes—he seems to commune with com
■des, but when be natnei them, it is found
uat the waters of ume and ofiliviczn have long
. overed their tombs.
Hours pass. — ihe taper grows dimmer and
uimmer—toe ma« bmery moves yet more and
•ora slowly—.he sands are fewer as may mea
ura the allotted span. The motion of those
•bout hire is uabetdod, cr becoicss a vexatieu.
Each fresh inquiry after hia health is a knell
—The springs of life can no longer force on
its wheels—the “silver chord” is fast untwist
ing—the pitcher is broken at the fountain—
and time “is a burthen.” His children are
about him, but he heeds them not—hie friends
are near, but he d"es not recognize them.
The circle is completed. The course is run
—and utter weakness brings the damp, which
ushers in >he nigh', of death.
Minutes pass-— H>s breathing groivs softer
and lower —ms pulse beats fainter and feebler,
t’hose r mud htm are listening, but cannot tell
when they cease. The embers are burnt out—■
•nd 'he blaze fl ishes not before it expires.
His “t ! •.! score years and ten,” are number
ed.— Human life “is finished. 1 ’
Sagacity of a Newfoundland Dog.— The
Asia was one of the fastest ships in tho fleet,
and we stretched away 'o the westward for se
veral miles, till a gun from the Commodore
gave us notice to close. We had seen nothing
of the boat, but we saw a strange schooner,
Yankee-rigged, 'hat was standing towards the
rocks, and we hoped ihat if the long boat «as
yet in ex'stence, there would be a chance of
her being picked up by ihe schooner, 'hough
rhe general idea was, iha' she had gone down,
and every soul b.d perished. We had -carcely
wore ship for the purpose of joining the con
voy, when a dense h ize obscured them from
sight, and as evening was closing in fast, every
officer was stationed in different pans to keep
a look oui. We had retraced about half our
distance, and the passengers were conversing
in melancholy mood upon the events of tho
past night, and the probable fate of the long
boat, when a noble Newfoundland dog, that
had lain sleeping on de»*k. sudd -nlv raised his
head, and gave a snort growl. The Captain
was pacing to and fro with ihe chief mate, but
stopped near the animal, and addressing it,
said, “Halloo, Nep I what’s the mutter wtili
you, old boy?” The creature wagged his long
bushy tail at hearing his master’s voice, and
then composed to slumber again, but in less
than a minute he reanmed hts growling, and
raised ‘timselfupon bis fore.paws. “He hears
soinethmg beyond our knowledge,” e.xelaimed
the Captain : “up, Nep, up my boy, and see
to ’em I” The animal at first rose lazily,
stretching his limos and shaking lus coai, but
in an instant he stood immoveable in the fixed
attitude of attention, a.id then sprung away up
on the poop-ladder, running from side to side,
and barking most vehemently, till at last ho
took ms station to windward, and ser.rn*'d per
fectly funo is. “We cannot bo within six
mile? to the fleet,” said toe captain, “and yet I
•<rn confident there is pom thing near us.
Weather cathead there, do you nee or hear
any hitig to wmdwaid? Silence, Neptune—
down, boy I down !’’and the animal her.iimo
perfectly tranq nl, wagging his fine tail, and
rubbing his nend affectionately against Ins
master’s hand. Tho officer on the lookout
replied tn the negative, as did h!h» several
otheis who h.id cautiously looked round, and
attentively listened- “ I’ll stakn my existence
on the dog’s sag 'Ctly,” said iho capt iin, ad
dressing the chief mate. “By heavens !it may
be Die missing boat ! haul up the main sail and
square ihe after-yards; keep her course quar
ter master, till I tell you to luff to the wind,
and let '.here be silence fore-and-aft.” The
orders were immediately and punctually obey
ed, and then the captain, patting the head of
•he huge animal, exclaimed, “ i\ow, Nep! we
must trust to you, old boy ; look for’em Nep!
seek ’em out!” Tne dog whined w<th a lan
guid play lulness, as if sausfi. d that he had
awaKeued attention, wneu there arose a low.
hollow mo«<n, dial seemed like a heavy groan,
issuing from lite very bowels of the ocean.
Fhu ship, though moving through the waier,
was greatly retarded by the shivering of the
atter-sutls, nnd the dashing noise occasioned
by her velocity had ceased. “ Folksdo, there,”
cried the captain, “ do you see any thing on
the wea h»tbeam ?” “No sir,” replied the
officer, •* bdi here was a sound came down
upon ibe wiudjust now—thougn I tear—”—
be stopped short, but added in n whisper—“it
was n » living creature ulierrd such a groan an

patung the dog, “look oui tor the boat, s:r.”
I‘ue animal r used his fore paws, laid them on
the rail, and cruurh ng nis nea j upon them,
luoaed tuiatiUy to w.udw rd, moving his ears
rapidly, in a few seconds he g .y» a shr.ll
