ICEBIT wTi A . The etroam of time rolla rapidly away into the ocean of eternity, sweeping off in its impetuous course nil hr?mftr? thiner* 3??-ty, ?Ochion, genios, accomplishments, wealth, will be no more. Religion alone is destined to survive the ruin. Vain, then, very vain, all sublunary plea? sures, all earthly advantages. "There is but one tiling necessary." A country editor, noticing the de? cease of a wealthy gentleman, ob? serves: "He has died regretted by a numerous circle of friends, and leav? ing a widow as disconsolate as any widow need be who has obtained the ?uncontrolled possession of 5,000 per annum. More than twenty young men have sent letters of condolence ttoher." ASLEEP.- Acertain pastor (no mat? ter where) astonished his audience, last Sabbath, by remarking that most of his people were asleep-part of them in the house of God and tho rest at home. "I don't like to patronize this line," Bnid a culprit to a hangman, who was adjusting the noose around his neck. "Oh, never mind this once," replied the hangman; "it will soon suspend its operation." "I'm pining, lote, for thee," is tho newest thing out in the song line. She had better leave off pine and try oak, maple or hemlock. Too much Sine, especially the soft sort, is "lin? eal thy." "Steel your heart," said a conside? rate father to his son, "for you aro going now among some fascinating girls." "I bad much rather steal theirs," said the unpromising young man. He who has never tried the com 1)anionsbip of a little child, has care essly passed by one of the greatest pleasures of Ufe, as one posses a rare flower without plucking it or knowing its value. "When an acquaintance says, "How are you?*' and rushes by you, without Imusing for a reply, I wouldn't fol ow him more than a mile to tell him I was well. NOTICE.
