Guilty Silence.?There is-"a
time to keep silence and a time to
sp?ak." And in this sense the old
English proverb is true, that
"speech is silvern, but silence is
golden." Yet there are times and
places when silence is a crime the
guilt of which is measurable only
by the the largest rules of morals
and of faith. Apathy towards the
?rcat moral evils of the world, and
indifference to human and divine
remedies for these e.vila, may sometimes
be the worst kind of moral
treason. In the fearful battles
which arc raging all aronnd lis,
between right and wrong, the most
deadly influence spring from indolent
selfishness. "Am I my
brother's keeper?'' says the unconcerned
spectator of the woee
and vices of the world.
There are multitudes "at ease in
Zion,'" who gaze with stupefying
indifference upon poverty, crimo
and intemperence, and the worsl
social evils which attend the ungodliness
of the age, as if wickededncss
at home, and paganism
abroad, had an original right tc
rule the world; and as if icligion
were an intruder on the earth upon
which the Redeemer was crucified
aud sla.n.
Happiness does not so much consist
in having much to enjoy, as in
fr\ o litllo TTc
iiic iuv;uiij iv/ ^nJwvv ** aav
who cannot be happy without takinggreat
pains, will always find
his pains greater than his happiness.
It is a beautiful thought ol
A<Ulison's, that one man often
takes more pleasure in the contemplation
of a line estate, than
another does in the possession. The
former derives much pleasure from
the estate, without being burdenec
with the care of possession; the
latter, burdened with the care o:
possesion, derives little pleasure
from the estate. The one finds an
estate in the beauties?the othci
finds no beauties in the estate. The
possession of enjoympnt, is 'bette]
than the enjoyment ot possession
