fOßE°®aE)£ %EAIE)giKI®§, “Come, aalltrr round (lie blazing hearth, And with reflection temper mirth ’’ THfiJ FALLING LEAVES. The sere leaves tremble to the breeze, Lastofa bright and beautious throng, That decked the broad and blessed trees, When spring awoke to life and soi g. They're gone—the earth is strewn around With imazes of sad decay— And sighing o'er the blighted ground The withered leaves thus seem to say: “We’re emblems of the human race— We came—we flourished—and we died; 80 man w.ll rise in hloomand grace, To fall and per ah by our side.” Morning of Life. —At no pet inti of life are less exempted from the cares and anx ieties of the world, than in the morning of our days. It is the season of childhood and youth, that every day unfolds new pleasures to oar opening minds, and every hour is fraught with joy : beauty and delight ate stamped upon every thing that attracts our attention. Every object we behold seeins inviting—the forest- the hill—the ocean and the sky, have each their peculiar attri butes of attraction, and our minds are often filled to overflowing, with the gush of joy that darts in upon us. But these seasons of fanciful and reams are soon gone by • ere we are aware of it, the tide of care has rolled its mighty waves across our path, and our bosoms are filled with untold anxieties about our future prospects. And in a few years more, where are vve 1 Mouldering hack to our original. The place know us not, over which we once trod with delight, and a little hillock rising between two mouldering stones, is all that remains to tell that we were tenants of time. Children —ye who have but lately com menced the path of life—will ye not seek for that which will not only make your way more pleasant here, but will lead you through rivers of joy. up to the paradise of God ? Obey then the words of endless truth ; and “ remember your Creator” in the springtime of life ; remember Him hy daily prayer and holy c-onversaton. Forsake all those vain amusements that have a pernicious tendency, and lead the mind away from peace. I preach not austere and dignified looks—nor would I have you rclinguish in nocent and healthful plays; but I would have you humble followers of Him who was meek and lowly in heart. Then early re nounce the ways of sin and folly—associate not with those who profane the Sabbath, the word, or name of Jehovah, and ymr will soon find by happy expot ience that there is more happiiress to be derived from the employ ments of prayer and praise, than in all the vain and unsatisfactory pursuits of a worldly mind. Religion will fit you for every thing : in life, and when the hour of death shall have arrived, it will buoy up your spirits amid the wreck of nature and transplant your soul into the mansions of everlasting bliss. The Goodness of God —The goodness of the Almighty toward us, must appear in a different shape from that in which it would, were we not in a fallen and sinful state. Now, his dealings with us must have a chief reference to our recovery from sin, while living in which we never can he happy, and to deliver us from which, at the expense of i anything, however good in itself, that lies in ! the way, the divine beneficence is pledged. : Let this principle he applied to some partic ulars in the experience of life. Health is a great blessing ; hut if sickness produces a seriousness of mind, an insensibility to the intoxicating influence of the world, a sense of dependance on the Almighty,all eminent ly calculated to lead the heart to that repen tance and amendment, from which, without such a visitation, it might have been further and father removed : at such a time, sick ness is a much greater blessing than health. The society and love of relatives and friends, is orteof the most sweet and pure sources of earthly enjoyment; hut if bereavement serves to wean us from the empty vanities of this wot Id, and to place our heaits and affections upon the unfading realities of another, to distinguish between those perishing quali ties which attract the thoughtless, and those noble and lasting endowments which God seeks to bestow upon us, and which hind in communion the inhahjMuts of heaven, to look for the society and just men made perfect, as the ultimate and incompar ably better substitute for the too often heart less and selfish intercourse of the most inti mate companions of our earthly hours; then may the loss of friends he regarded as a real and lasting gain. As to wealth, it can hard ly le called a blessing, because it proves so often a curse, as to seem one of the most common instruments with wh ch the doom of tbe reprobate is sealed. Who does not, know, from observation, as well as from the testimony of the Saviour, that it is haul for them that are rich toenter into the kingdom of heaven, and that they who seek to he so, fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish und hurtful lusts, which drown men’s souls in destruction and perdition ! On die other hand, it must be acknowledged that poverty is an evil, and therefore it is wise to desire, as safest, that mediocrity of condition, with respect to worldly goods, which is so beautifully expressed in the prayer of Aga —“Give me neither poverty nor riches, lest I he poor and steal, or lest 1 be proud, and take the name ofGhid in vain.” It is among those who are thus blessed, that industry and virtue ate to be found ; and these ate they who constitute the bulwuik of the church, as well as the slate. The Wife. —It needs n.'t guilt to break a husband’s heart; the absence of contempt, the muttering* of spleen, tho u.ntidy dress, and cheerless home, the furbiddi.ug scowl and deserted hearth; these, and other ..’atne- Iraa neglects —without a crime among tliei.u, have harrowed to the quick the core oi many a man, and planted there, beyond the reach of cure, the germ of dark despair. Oh! may woman before that sad sight arrives, dwell on the recollections of her youth, arid, cheering the dear idea of that tuneful time, awake and keep alive the promises she then to kindly gave; and though she may he the injured, not the injuring one—the forgotten, not the forgetful wife—a happy allusion to that hour of peace and love-— a kindly wl> come to a comfortable home—asmileof love ] to banish hostile words—a kiss of peace to pardon all the past, and the hardest heart that ever, locked itself within the breast of selfish man will soften to her charms, and bid her live, as she lmd hoped, her years in matchless bliss—loved, loving, and content —the soother of the sorrowing hour—the source of comfort, and Ihe spring of joy. “ Habits are stubborn things” —and in youth those habits are formed, which fix the character forever. The Thief commonly begins bis career in bis early years, and marches fast from his neighbor's orchard to the Whipping Post, or gallows. When a young man discovers signs of intempeiance, and indulges in the dram, vve have every reason to believe, that the habit will be con firmed, as he advances in life, and old age will find him a sot. The young man plays at games of chance, and the old man is a gambler. The young man is a profligate, the old man is abandoned. Vice is like the oak :—it springs from a small beginning:— in its infancy it is easily plucked up:—but the longer it grows the more firmly it is root ed ; and at last, bids defiance to tbe ordina ry winds, storms, and tempest, and is destroy ed only by the thunderbolts of heaven. As the dove will clasp its wings to its side, and cover and conceal the arrow that is preying on its vitals—so it is the nature of woman, to hide from the world the pangs of wounded affection. With her the desire of the heart has failed. The great charm of existence is at an end. She neglects all thecheerful exeicise that gladdens thespirits, quickens the pulses, and sends the tide of life in healthful currents through the veins. Her rest is broken, the sweet refieshment of sleep is poisoned by melancholy dreams —“ dry sorrow drinks her blood,” until her enfeebled frame sinks under the least exter nal assaiimerit. Look for her, after a little while, and you find friendship weeping over her untimely grave, and wondering that one, who lately glowed with all the tadiaiice of health and beauty should now fie brought down to “ darkness and the worm.” You will lie told of some vvintiy chill, some slight indisposition, that laid her low —but no one knows the mental malady that previously sapped her strength, and made her to easy a prey to the spoiler. Our life has been likened to a passing shadow. This is emblematic of its transito riness only. The hopes, the fears, the joys, j the sorrows, the happiness and misery which j make up the sum of human life, are not here j set forth. We may consider life a consci ousness of our own existence, as associated I with the present. The spring of action, with the body, with the mind, is the energy of thought. In the extinction of these, we have the idea of death. Girls, remember, that the man who bows, smiles, and says many soft compliments, has no genuine love; while he who loves most sincerely, stiuggles to hide the weakness of his heart, and in doing this lie often appears decididlv awkward.
