He then paid many persons do not Miececd In life because they do not understand the philoHp)iy of milking things ro. It Is not a nutter ot luek or clianee, but a question decided by great natural and spiritual laws. Much depends upou our Hil ling an occupation for which we are particularly adapted. The fuel caiu ot hut be Admitted that there are thousands of pevons in places where they rto not belong. The bird's wing .means air, the fish's fin means water, the horse's hoof means (rround, and juxt what would happeu it the bird tried the water and the tl-dt tried the airjiappen? when men pet out of their natural element. In my watch the spring cannot exchange places with the wheel, nor the col's with the pivots; "ytay where I put you," cries the watchmaker, "if jou want to keep pood time;" and, my friends, tho world k only a big watch, that God wo uul up, and the easons are the hand-, which tell how fast the time is going. "Stay where I put you," says our jrrciit Creator. Human society is a ship. Some are to go ahead they are the prow; some are to slay oelnnd, and guide those who lead they are the helm; some ore to l" enthusiastic, and carry the flat; they are ihi wants; some ave to do not hi 117 but art 'as a dead weight they are shovelled in as ballast; some are to funic aud fret und blow they are the valves. We are wilting Mother Nature, to take any of them except 1 wo. l'lcase excuse us froiii Mine: either the ballast or the valves. Our haepiuess and Biiccess depend on beins? where we belong. A scow may be admirable, ami a lift v-lour pounder steamship may be ad mirable; but do not put the scow ou the ocean, or the 04-pouuder in a mill-pond. Fortune is not so unreasonable as sometimes rcpre?ented t) be. She is spoken of as an old shrew, with hot water-spout and tongs pursuing ihe innocent; sometimes logins her temper. Hut she mostly approves of thoc who are in their spheres, and eoudeuins lLosc who are w here they do not belonff. How then, say some, do yon account t'.ir the wiccefs of such persons as Kliitu Burritt, an t Hugh .Miller? the lormer a blacksmith, yet Bhowinz he had unbounded capacity lor the ac quisition of lanmiiiute; and the latter, a stone mason, and jet as though be were one of the old buried Titaiis come to life, pressing up throirtrh rocks aud mountains, until slinking from his -VOftt ft world Of red rtinde;onc, aud washing oil irom his luinds the dust of luillW."? Zi J""., he takes the I'rofei-or's chair in a college, ion Bay, I suppose, these men started iu the wrouy business. No, they did not. Different men want different kinds of colleges.

Miller, from observations made while loiline with chisel and crowbar, laid the foundation of bif wonderlul attainments, one shelf of rock being worth to him more than the hundred shelves of 0 college library. Not to say a tithe against colleges, sonic men find a way up to their mission without passing under academic shades. It is strange to notice in what different ways different men ore prepared lor tlicir occu pation!! und professions. tSome men get into an occuoatiou below that for whicli they were intended. Excessive aaodesty keeps them from the position for which they are fitted. They have then a 54-pounder in thai mill-pond of which I have been speaking. They do not cet along half as wel! as somp body with less brains and less capacity. An elepha-u. would make wretched work it you set it to 'hatch ut goose-eggs, but no moietliau a man of "Teat . . ., - ...... .... o(t -5 t -AttMButcuiB mipuiuij uuu... come lllJl'r niticant office, Ever und r.non a great revolu tion throws some such mau out ol hi3 Intling place. His moral t-trengtb would never uave been known had not necessity nia.le hiin come up out of his insignificant posit ion. But the opposite is generally the case. Men arc often in the position a little above that tor which they were intended. Now the old scow is out on the ocean. The weights of a clock baid, " Come, come, this is dull work down here; I want to be the pendulum." But the pendulum llOUtel upwards, "I am tired of tiiis work; it does not seen? 1 W,,,? WLf back-ward and lorwafu. Phi ilwt I hands!" Under this excitement the old clock, which had been going ever since the Revolu tionary war, stopped stock still. " nat is the matter, now, my old friend?" says the n rev haired patriarch. For very shame, not a word was said until the old man set it a-goine, Then hp strikini? bell snoke un and said. " Nothins;; only the weights wanted to be the pendulum, and the pendulum wanted to be the bands I" Well, well," said grandfather, ''this is great work;" anJ the old man, losing his patience a little, gave the tOmk a gentle slap on the face, and told the pendulum hereafter to h'dd iu tongue, and said t Ihe weight, " You be (Laughter). , We must stav exactly In our place -not an inch above, not an inch below. But how shall I tell if I stand iu my exact appointment, not a nartic.e above, not a particle beneath? 1 his is the test: It you can perform your duty easily, without being cramped or exhausted, that is the right place. That man is in a horrible con dition who is ever making prodigious efforts to do a little more than he can do. It is just as esy for a star to swing in its orbit as lor a mote to float iu the sunbeam. Nature never sweats. The ercatlaw ot gravitation holu,,. universe on i.s back as easily as a VaMt swlno- over his 9houlder a bag ot Genessec wheat. The winds never run, iuetusclves out of breath. The rivers do not weary in their course. The Mississippi and the Amazon are no more tired than the nu udow brook. Himalaya is not dizzy. I'oets talk about the witters of our ereat cata ract being in agony, but I think tucy like it. How they frolic aud clap their handB miles ; above, as they come skipping on to wards the great summersault, singing "Over we go. over ! we go!" When the universe goes at such tre mendous speed, and the least impediment might break one of the great wheels, is it not a won- J der that we do not sometimes hear a prodigious crash, or thunders buns loud enough to make the world's kuoes knock together if Yet a mil lion worlds in their (light do uot make as much noise as a honey-bee coquetting among the clover-tops. Everythinp: iu nature is lust as easy. Now, if the position you occupy requires unuatural exertion, your only way out is either to take a step higher up or take a step further down. Providence does not demand that you Bhould break your back, or put your arm out ot joint, or sprain your ankle. It you can ouly find out just what you an-to do, you cau do it perfectly easy. Young man, be sure you begin right. It Is dangerous work, this changing occupation or profession. Not once iu a thousand times is it done successfully. The sea of life is so rough ttiat you cannot cross over from one vessel to another, except at great peril of fulliug be tween. Thousands oi men have fallen down to nothing between the mason's trowel and the carpenter's saw; between the lawyer's briefs and the author's pen; between the medicine rbeet and the pulpit. It la no easy matter to switch off on another track this thundering pr?s train of life. It takes about ten years to get tairlv started in any business or prole -fioii, and I tell you we have not got uiai.y tnoes to wtM" in .)-ript'nt. THE DAILY EVENING TELEGRAPH. PHILADELPHIA, FRIDAY, DECEMBER 28, 186G. Ttif lecturer further remarked that tblnjrs would never go ripht unlet we try to niaiuluiu a rheeriul dlspo-ltion. This would not bo men tioned except in the belief that our disposition is much of our own making. We admit there Is great rtiflerenec in natural constitutions. Borne persons arc born cross. 8ce that man with a long face, that never shortens into ft laugh. Tell me, did not his mother have trouble with him when he was small f Why, he never was pleased. Did he not make riots in the nur-ery among looking glasses and glass pitchers? Was his nurse ever able on her kneo to jolt down his petulance or shake up his eood humor? Did he not often hold nn indignation meeting Hat on the tloor, his hands, his bead, and leet all par tieipatina in the exercise? Could not his father tell jou a story of twelve o'clock at nitrlst, with hasty toilet, walking the floor with the dear litilc blessing in his arms? A story that would he a caution to old bachelors. Then there arc other persons who, from child hood, while they are not at all petulant, yet, show a sad and melancholy turn of mind which soems ineradicable. Although their lot maybe oomiOrtable, they have, all their life loner, the appearance ot having met with afflictions, t itlicrs are from infancy light and happy. They romp, thev Hy. You can hear their swift leet in the hall. Their loud laughter rings throuch the house, or in the woods bursts into a score ot echoes. At night you can hardly hush their glad hearts tor slumber, and in the morurjg they wake you with their singing. Alas! if then tin y leave you, and jou no more hear their swift leet in the hall, aud their loud laughter ringina through the house, or in the woods bursting into a score of echoes; if they wake you no more in the morning with their sweet sontr; If the color go out of the rose, and its leaves fall; if angols for onec grow jealous, and want what you cannot spare; if packed away in the trunk or drawer there bo silent garments that once fluttered with youlhlul life, and by mistake you call some other child by the name ol the one departed 1 Ah me I Ah me! But while we may all from our childhood have a certain bent given to our disposition, much depends upon ourselves whether wo will he happv or miserable. You will see in the world chiefly what you look for. A farmer goinu throuub the country chiefly examines the Janus, an architect the buildings, a merchant the condition of the maikets, a minister the churches, and to a man going throii).'h the world will see the mon of that for which he especially looks. He who is constantly watching tor troubles will find them stretching off Into the gloomy wilderness, while he who is watching lor blessings will find them, hither aud thither, extending out in harvests of luxuriance. Like most garments, like most carpet, every thing in life has a right side aud a wrong side. You can take any joy, und by turning it around, find troubles on the other side; or you may take the greatest trouble, and by turning it aiouud, find joys on tho other side. The gloomiest mountain never casts a shadow on both bides at once, nor does the greatest ot life's calamities. The earth, in its revoluti ins, manages about the niaht; it never has darkness all over at the same time. Sometimes it has nicht In America, aud sometimes In china; but there is some part of the earth constautly m me bright f unlhrht. My friends, do as the enrt'u does. When you have eot trouble, keep turn ing round, and you will hud sunlight some where. Amid the thickest gloom throiurh which Otl nre rnl.r.1 IC carry your own cai.dle.

Fretltdness will kill anything that is not in Us, nature immortal. There' is a large class df per sons in constant double about their health, although the same amount ol strength iu a cheerful man would be taken as healthiness. Their digestion being constautly suspected of uiilaithlulness, finally refuses to serve such a master, and says, "Heretiter moke way with your own lobsters," and the suspicious lungs resign their office, saying. "Hereafter blow your own bellows." (Lauirh'er.) He shoots so vigor ously at hia liver with blue pi-b, that the con test has got to be as tierce as Lecompton nud auti Lecompton. (Laughter.) For the last twenty years he has been expecting every mo ment to faint. His nerves make insurrection ard rise up against his head, sajiuir, "Come, la us teize upon this armory." His face is per petually drawn, us though'he citner had a pain or expected one. Yon tear to accost him with, "How ae you ?" for 1 bat would be the sitrnal for a shower ot com plaints. He is always eetiinj a lump ou his side, an culm cement of the heart, or a curve 111 Jiis cpiue. li some of these disorders did not actually como be would be sick of disappoint ment.
