THE OLD MAN IN THE GRAVE YARD BY ROBERT MORRIS. •There is no darkness like the cloud of mind. On Griefs vain eve—tbe blindest of the blind! Which may not—dare net see—but turns aside To blackest shade3—nor will endure a guide." There are dark hours in the history of every human being—periods of despondency and gloom, when life seems without a solitary ray of brightness, and all the future is shrouded in "mist and melancholy." At such times the spirit is depressed—the soul within is, "involved in shadows," and it is in vain that we turn and torn, and endeavor to avoid the ominous thoughts that crowd upon the brain. They force themselves upon U 3, and all our efforts to shake off the despair of the moment are idle and fruitless. Phantom shapes flit before the imagination—dismal forebodings crowd upon the mind—evil thoughts obtrude upon us, and fora time we feel miserable. The aspect of the exter nal world sometimes produces this disposition, and thus we may infer that suicides are more common during periods of protracted storm, than m less dreary seasons. Who has not felt the cheering influence of a burst of sunshine—an angel glance, as it were, from the blue skies above us, like• a ray of prosperity amid the darkness and despair of a long season of vicissi ,, tude? There are indeed few who are not influenced ' in tone of mind and feeling by long periods of gloomy land unpleasant weather, and the heavens shut out from the human vision, and na cheerful object to call our t':o•rghts from the earthliness, the dreariness of the prospect. '.any,—there are few who have rut in journeying dirt:ll2.h life felt Reason tottering from her throne for a. moment, and the Demons of Crime and Despair as= sum" the mastery,—few who have not looked with shuddering soul into the shadowv future, and hesita ted upon the brink of that most pitiable of all crimes, self-murder. This to some mar seem a wild and im probable theory! But call up the past, gentle reader, and ask if among its "faded hours," no dark and dread ful record con be discovered?—no moment when life itself seemed a burthen and a curse, and the present worse than the mysterious future? If such record may be traced, down upon your knees and thank God, that the bitter cup was permitted to pass by—that the demon did trot master the better spirit within— that the faith and hope of the human soul were able to triump over its sadness and despair. Audit it may not—if you have been spared the "blackness and darkness" that I have attempted to describe—if thrt waters of life have nut been embittered by gall and wormwood—if the coming hours have never seemed pregnant with shame and anguish, beyond the power of endurance, still down and return thanks to the Divine Source of all that is benificent, that you have been saved from such apprehended torment—such wretchedness of soul—such madness of despair The curse or our first parents has thus far pressed upon I you lightly. Be gtatefui and invoke for the time to come the same exemption from the shadowy, the des- , pairing, the insane, and tr-o criminal. Who may tell what a day—what an hour may bring forth! Who point out the tree that may Lo riven by the next bolt from Leuven! II ha the form that may be laid low by the next Rash of i ightnine ! But to our story. It was a gloomy afternoon in the month of August, that res dews, discontented, and una ble to become interested in any volume at command, I sallied forth, scarcely knowing whither or with what. uhject• I felt irritrble and gloomy, and the more I exerted myself to shake MT te evil spirit, the more did the sombre and the sad hover over and oppress CDC. It is the weather.' T said to myself; or perhaps I em not well—or pet haps some misfortune is at hand, and this 'casts its shadow bef•re.' And then a crowd of unhappy recollections passed. before me, and discolored and distorted my diseased ordarkened fancy. Thus I wandered on in any mood bat one of contentment or joy, until I found myself in the immediate vicinity of a grave-yard. Scarcely consci ous of my course, I slowly ;iscenckd the few stepsbe fote the gateway, raised the latch, and was among the tombs. Thought seemed to assume a still more shad. owy aspect, and as I moved slowly on, glancing upon one tombstone, and then upon another, and wondering within myself the history of the perishing bodies be low, the vain world, with all its gaieties and follies— its temptations and its trials. passed before the eye of my mind. I stood with the mementos of the dead a round mu, and my thoughts wandered into the world of spirits. Ihe ghosts of the departed flitted beforrs me—the impalpable shapes of an eternal life—and thus at one moment I beheld tho bright wings, and heard the glad voice of a seraph. and at another saw dark and flaming pinions, and heard shrieks of agony, groans of despair. and imprecations of blasphemy.— Now the ghost of a dead relative appeared, and, with looks of kindness and recognition, beckoned me us snony g roves, blue skies, and flashing water falls: and now th e ghostly shape ofsome well remembered crim inal, some gory murderer, passed before my excited mind, appalling and terrifying. I felt that I was a wake, and in full life; but my mental faculties seemed in some degree beyond my control; the spirtual had obtained the mastery over the physical and intellect ual, and I lingeredinidwav between sleeping and wak ing existence. A sort o f - mental dream was upon me. I hind given way too fully to the influence of tho dark hour; hard yielded too readily to the moodiness of my nature; had lost in some degree the control as well of my mental as of my physical being. Thus tt was when, starting fromp the temporary stupor, I felt a hand upon my shoulder, In an instant the mist faded from my eves. I turned and recogni zed the features elm: old and much respected citizen. For a moment we gazed upon each other with looks of surprise and enquiry, as if wondering at such a meet ing, and in such a place. I frankly confesssed the condition of my thoughts, and narrated the almost in voluntary manner in which I had visited the grave yard. "Beware," exclaimed the aid man "beware of tho indulgence ofauch features. The human mind is too weak - to be trusted even with those who have years and experience on their side. How much less, then, is it to be depended npon, when the imagination-runt wild, and the youthful spirit soars above and beyond the buunds of reason—when we give a free scope to the fancy, and kiting earth and the things of earth. lose ourselves in wild and visionary meditations, that we know not %%bete?"
