H., on Saturday, the It is the constantly Changing aspects' of Nature which impart a perennial charm to the Common Mother. The Seasons fittingly represent the Human Agjs. Spring is like a shy maiden, “Standing, with reluctant feet, Where the brook and river meet.” Summer is like a bride covered with orange-blossom*, suggesting hap piness and deep content. Autumn, with its russet lines and seer leaves and sad premonitions, strikingly sug gests life’s decline. Winter, with frosty brow and white head, illus trates the “last scene of ali” in Life’s strange eventful , history” when desire has lied, and tlie end slowly but surely approaches. But the ap parent death of Nature is only a pre paration for a fresh toilet. Her youth is constantly renewed. Her garments are new fresh and beautiful; and if the colors seem to fade for a moment, It is only that we may be the more astonished and delighted when she b iI'srS up»a us—Tti her new spring dress Wc have not the same power of renewal; but Art is a great benefac tor, We can be renewed externally*. \ fresh and dignified appearance can be conferred upon us.
