A Chapter.?We love to philosophize
upon human life?to catch a moment from
the din and bustle of business, for the
purpose of reflection?to study the inigma
of human existence, and take lessons
from the school of experience. We love
to pause at the mile stones upon the highway
of earthly pilgrimage, mark the distance
we have passed, and contemplate
the probable length of the journey to be
accomplished?to look at the concourse
of hetrogenious fellow travellers, as they
wend their way along?study their peculiarities,
tastes and characters?observe
the diversity of their pursuits, propensities
and passions?and mark the ephemeral
nature both of themselves, their ambition.
their pomp, their pride, their riches,
and their glory. We love, we say, to
.1 ii : ?
LAjiiiuiujjiuiu iittrsu uiuigs, ana to draw instruction
and amusement from the panoramic
view which the picture with its
lights and shades with its diversity of
combination, constantly presents to observation.
Look at society as it is, and what
a field presented for contemplation in her
sober moments?for the play of imagination
in her wildest reveries?and for the
groupings of fancy in her choicest combinations.
With no guarantied title deed
for a moment of the future, man designs
and acts as he were immortal?with no
evidence of the enduring strength of the
thread of life, he postpones his happiness
till the next day, the next month or the
next year?with no assurance that he shall
enjoy the fruits of his labor, he tugs and
toils from morn to eve, from year to year,
from youth to old age, to accumulate
wealth, to increase his stores, to build
him palaces and to eclipse his neighbor,
in pomp and circumstance of life,?and
with no certsiilltv that tlm tnnanip rkf h'mr?_
dor shall not defame his name and blackon
his character, lie wastes the vigor of
youth and prime of life, ho burns the
midnight lamp and spends sleepless nights
and wearisome days, to acquire honor,
fame, and renow n, which will scarcely
survive him for a moment, and which, in
the language of Fal stall* will neither
"case a pain or set a bone." Verily,
man is an igma, and the actions of his life
its solutions ! The unintelligent, the ignorant,
the inconsiderate, do not understand
it?-do not appreciate it?do not comprehend
it. There is much of enjoyment as
well as much sufferings, in the space of
threescore years and ten or less; but the
happiness that is proportioned out to mortals
greatly overbalances the misery'?is
indeed, with few exceptions, nearly equally
distributed to all, and a rational, philosophical
consideration of this fact, groatIv
11. .1 11 - - -- !
acius to tnc stiare aiiotcd to each individual.
Who is not as happy as his neig' ?b< >r?
Who would exchange his situation including
therein his health, his mind, his intelligence,
his contentment, his circumstances,
in short his individuality with its appendages,
who would exchange with his
neighbor? Nothing in point of happiness
would be gained by .such an exchange,
were it in the power of individuals to
make it at their pleasure. Reason it as
we may, fix it the best way we can, wish
as we please for this thing and that thing,
to be in this or that man's place, to have
- - -
mis possession or mai inheritance, and admit
that the desire could at once be gained ,
it would not add an iota to the permanent
even tenor of our happiness. Care and
anxiety, said Horace, tne celebrated Roman
poet, mounts the horse behind the
knight, his rider, and clings to liim with
equal tenacity and perseverance as to the
poorest menial or the crippled beggar?
knocks at the door of the king's palace, as
well as that of the peasant's cottage?
accompanies the belle and fine lady in
her routine of fashion and pleasure, as
well as the market-woman at her daily
watchings in the streets of the crowded
city. Some little care, perplexity and
trouble, may be considered the little
genius that attends mortals, the balance
wheel that steadies the intellectual machinery
of man, the counterpoise abstraction
to his etherial, spiritual essence, which
without such let and hindrance would
enact nil conceivable sorts of fantastic
capers along the highway of life. That
man is the true, nractical nhilosonher. who
_ / 1, I I 7
views life as it is, and who deliberately
calculates to bear, with a composed mind,
and without murmers and complaints, the
diversity of fortune that may befal him,
who takes the slices of fat and lean as they
come, who envies no man his condition,
who repines not at his lot, who lives upon
the earnings of honest industry, or uses an
inheritance in ways of honor and liberality,
in promoting his own comfort and
happiness and those araund him. It is
indeed an entertainment to study human
nature individually and collectively, to
observe the motives of action, to remark
the governing feelings and ^passions that
difect and sway the multitude, and to
Id raw thence rules and principles by
which accurately to judge and wisely to
determine concerning the framework of
human society. It this is an entertainment,
a luxury, a rich boon, it is what
' comes from study, reflection and observation,
and what, all who will use the means,
i and undergo the labor, may enjoy to their
i heart's content, and without stmt of jnca
sure.
Riot and loss op L.ife at Niagara,
U. C.?A riot resulting in the immediate
death of two persons, negroes, and the
WOlinrlincr nnn ?X*. 1
I v?.v ou|/|/u>3vu nivi iau v , ui mruu
. others, occurred at Niagara, on Sunday
last. The circumstances leading to this
untoward result are briefly these. Some
time since a slave from Kentucky stole
his master's horse, and made his way into
: Canada.
I A statement of the facts was submitted
to the Canadian authorities from the Gov[ernor
of Kentucky, when the man was
'arrested and earned before the proper
judicial officers at Niagara, by whom, after
a due investigation, he was adjudged
a felon, and committed to prison to await
a requisition from the proper authorities
of Kentucky's The blacks, however, as- i
semblcd at Niagara, to the number of at
i least four huncfred, dctermlftd to resist
his being taken away.
1 The |)roper orel?r for his removal having
been received, however, the sheriff* of the
district resolved 011 Saturday to deliver
him, according to law, to the persons authorised
to receive him on the American
side, although having but a small guard to
protect him, a requisition for troops from.
Toronto not having been complied with.
As he had, however, deceived the negroes,
by reading c rtain papers, which
stated that the man should not be given up,
until farther investigation had been had,
which induced them to disperse, with the
exception of a guard of about forty left
to keep an eye upon his movements, he
imagined the delivery could be effected
without opposition.
In this he was mistaken, however, as
the remaining negroes immediately at- %
tacked his party, and rescued the man; .
after which he ordered his posse to fire on
them, which resulted, as stated above, in
the death and wounding of five persons,
but the felon escaped.
An inquest, we understand, was to have
l>een held on Saturday on the dead bodies,
but what the verdict was, we have not
learned. Much excitement existed, and
great trouble and disturbance, it was anticipated,
would grow oyt of* this circumstance.?Buffalo
