INSPIRING THOUGHTS
IMMORTALITY AND NATURE. The flower, gathering; light and dew into its growing bosom, intermingles with them-its own life-essence, and so bears a sued, around which it folds its faded petals as a shroud—falls into the dust, no longer to perish, but to live again. Why not so with the life culminated in man? Dr Monger. * * *- Better to he alone in the world, ard utterly friendless, than to have she 1 friendg and no sympathy. * * * * Nothing can be great which is not right. Nothing which reason condemns can be suitable to the dignity of the human mind. To be driven by external motives from the path which our own heart approves, to give way to anything but conviction, to suffer the opinion of others to rule our choise, or overpower our resolves, is to submit tamely to the lowest and most ignominious slavery, and to resign the. right of directing our own lives. Rambler.
