THF TRUE AIM OF LIFE.
OncofBrowning'sgreatestser
vices to his generation in the way
c f mora i impulse is the clearness
w Rh which he has presented the
a i m 0 f pf e ils the development of
the individual soul. Life to him
means, above all things, intense
a nd continuous activity; the out
of the emotions, the gray¬
pling of thought with themost dif
ticult questions, the answer of ac
tion to opportunity, and the
irresistible impetus which a great
affection or a great passion gives
to the whole movement of one’s
nature.
It seems to be the theory of
many people that the aim of life
is to keep out things, to hold care
at a distance, to shun responsibili
ty to get away from work, to
shield themselves from all painful
am j trying experiences, and to
spend .\ theiv days on some quiet /,
ls bunl . in . the ,, gieat , steam , of hu
man action.
Those who hold and act upon
gucll a creed, defeat the very ends
of tllciv life - hold that liar
bor-bound which was mean for the
seas; they keep that in tlie seed
which was mean to come to flower
and fruit; they imprison in the
va gp the fragrance that was mean
for the free air
Life is to be sought, not to be
shunned; and the things by Avhich
it is developed—work, responsi
bility, care, groat burdens—are to
accepted joyfully, not to be
sedulously avoided. He is the
most happy servant in whom the
greatest trust is reposed, upon
whose shoulders the Ai eightiest
responsibilities are placed; and
he ought to be the most unhappy
servant to Avliom is given, for lack
of capacity, the smallest place
and the lightest duty.
That Avhich more than anything
else makes great souls is passion
for life; an intense and irresistible
desire to drink the cup to the
bottom, to find out all that life
has to teach, to receive all that
life lias to give, and to pour out iu
exchange all that there is locked
up in one’s oavii soul.
The greatest lives have been
those which have been most com¬
pletely developed, Avliose growth
has gone on Avithout hasting and
Avitliout resting to the very end
and this is the only life worthy of
those avIio Avere born for eternity.

GENERAL LAWTON ABROAD,
It is exceedingly gratifying to
General Lawton’s many
in this country, aud especially
Georgia, to hear from every quar¬
ter the most complimentary ex¬
pressions of opinion concerning
the manner in which the general
discharged the duties of his high
position while ho was United
States minister at Vienna,
General Lawton’s ability, zeal,
amiability and dignity produced a
very favorable impression at the
Austrian court, and the press and
society of Vienna bear
tic testimony to the tact and
fiuement of the gracious, gentle
and gifted lady who aided
husband in doing the honors
the American legation.
In this instance the country

resentatives at one of the
and proudest courts in Europe.
