That in WBATWut each trait to the tout **a

TIIOU MUST DIE J
When we bring ro mind this
aw r ul fcntcnce, which ha* been
passed upon every ere uure inha
biting this ball of eatih, how in
liguificant appear tlmfe low pur
i'uics which agitate the toiling
race of men. He who has been
for a ferir* of years building
airy rallies, and preparing for
future yeais of enjoyment—who
has been tiding his barns with
plemy and his ltores with abun
dance, how is he allonifhed,
when to him is sent this awfui
lu.muons 1 His proud projetts
vim(li into emptinels, and more
worthies'* than chad appear those
valt dtfigns of grandeur which
had cal.ed forth all the energy
of the mind. Not io the Chris
tian, who
“ H*a made the ftatute* of the Lord
” His study and dilight.”
To him death comes not un
locked for he knows it is the ;
jot of our frail nature, and he
rej'Mces in it as the road to blrs
fednefs. SuftaineJ by the hope
of glory, he finks not under the
tendings of pain—the agonies of
dtfealc ate conliuered as the
price of his palfyort to a happier
ltate i and, religned, he receives
the cup of affliction. The death
ot the Cnrtdian is the revival of
faith. Thole who hand at his
bed-tide —who behold him throw
otT me of mortality, his
countenance beaming with heav
enly (mile*, and his lips uttering
jnuiu—■-mutt lurcly be conna-
red that he has followed n T
“ cunn ngty deviled lablcs.”—
and even beptics must be indu
ced to wilh, chat their latter cuu
might be Ike this.
