FRIENDLY COUNSEL
A FRIEND. A faithful friend is the medicine of life; for what cannot be effected by means of a true friend? or what utility, what security, does he not afford? The mere beholding him diffuses an unspeakable joy, and at the bare memory of him the mind is elevated. ST.

LA URUYERE. •X- - -X- -X- -XWait thou tor time—it hath a scorcerer’s power To dim life’s mockeries that gaily shine, To lift the veil of seeming from the real, Bring to thy soul a rich or fearful dower, With golden tracery on the sands of life, ' And raise the drooping heart from ’scenes ideal To a high purpose in a world of strife. Wait thou for time!
