Daring one of my visits in the country lest sum.
mer, I met with the following incident, and I now
relate it, believing that the thoughtful mind may
gather instruction from its perusal.
,It was a lovely afternoon, and I had wandered
forth to enjoy the surrounding scenery, and glories
of the Western sky. On reaching the summit of
a hit, a shed distance from the - village, I beheld
the bent form of an aged man leaning upon his
staff. HIS garb was suited to his age, but was
dusty and worn ; and, u he stood there, silent as
a came, unconscious of surrounding things, it
seemed to me that big eyes were fixed on some
object beyond the boundaries of toffs world—
something undiscernible to the gate of common
men. I approached and offered him my hand
which he received with a warm pressure, while a
strange. smile lighted his withered countenance.—
I sow that something heavy was et the old min's
heart, and - I 'asked him, es a friend i to tell me of
hi's grief. He assented, and seating ourselves
upon a Wade seat'near by, be thus , proceeded :
"My young friend, I have been thinking upon
the pleasures and the sorrows of other days. - At
the mention of these two last words, how varied
era the scenes which rise before me; causing my
heart to flutter with joy, or tremble at remember.

.A few hours since, and after the absence of
half a century, I returned to my native village—
hoping to find there one person at least who would
remember me, and bead over my cinch when I
should die. But no—l , seemed a stranger, or as
one forgot.' I Saw a youth with dark,melaneholy
eyes end lofty forehead, walking thoughtfully in
the shadows of the trees. I forgot myself, and
called out the familiar name of an early friend,
but the stranger thought the old man etasf—and,
therefore, heeded me not. It made me sad—very
sod. I beard the clear laugh of a maiden beyond
s garden wall, and fancy pictured to my mind the
deep blue eye, tto heaving bosom, and sweet smile
of Mary Lee. Then I wee happy. .I saw a pariy
of children returning froth the' strawberry
,fielde,
with basketvbrimming full ; and, as they danced
along with joyous hearts and blooming faces, I.
became a child once more. But when they came
near, end gathered round to gage at my thin whito ,
locks and furrowed cheeks, and one exclaimed,
'See how the poor men trembles:l felt that I was
indeed old, and ripe for the sickle of death. As
this happy groupe left me, a shade of thoughtful
nese seemed to have settled on their young minds ;
and when one saf the little girls legged behind,
and poured into ray lap the contents of her basket
a tear of holy love dimmed my , eyer. and I thank
ed God that he permitted angels to dwell upon
the earth. Beautiful child!—may I meet thy pure
spirit in the realms of bliss!
"I passed down the avenue which once led to
the little brown cottage where I was born—but
there everything was changed. :No familiar voice
greeted my ear. The marble mansion, the fash
ionable garden and regular walks, added to my
sorrow. Even the old apple-treV, under whose
shadow my mother sung her lullaby for me, was
gone. Those who saw me, thought me an old
mendicant. And offered me bread—but I refused it,
and turned away to hide my burning tears. For
a moment, They wondered why the old man wept
—but then they passed on, and he was forgotten.
I est down upon a atone, near the old school
house, and 0 ! how mingled were the recollections
it brought to mind ! ° Where, thought I, are the
noble young spirits who were once so happy
there! Many of them, porheps, were lured into
the world
. by fame, pleasure, and wealth; while
a few have passed through this life knowing it to
be but the pathway to an eternal one. They are
gone—all. all gone. The school house still
stands there, but it is in ruin, mournfully rebind
ing the beholder of other days. A part of the
roof has fallen in, and the door is - hingleas. Its
inhabitants are the cricket and bat, and its broken
windows are hung with curiously wrought tapes

wondered when I saw that., whether the learned of

pedagogue fifty years ago..
"I entered the church, but this, too. htel'under

the chief torment of my life. I have stood on the
spot hallowed by the ashes of Socrates; and, as I
thought of him and others, who once instructed
mankind under a cloud of heathenism, have felt
that if the grave was the consummation of human
glory, the plaudi:s of the world were not to be de

nature. She will alleviate many of the troubles
of life, and will prove a constant friend. The
scenes which now meet my eye, aro the game to
which I bade adieu in the, morning of life. The
same breeze is fanning my cheek, and sending the
ripples open the chore. The same bees arc strug

flower. The same ant is building her link palace

Thus did this good man unborthen the feelings

inns. He leaned upon my arm until we reached

A DREADS OF DEATH

How appropriate end, sadly truthful is the ex
pression "the night is the grave.". How the deep
shadows of inipenetrable mystery hang about the
dread portals of eternity; bow in approaching them,
even in thought, we lose ourselves in clouds, and
grope in thick darkness.
In the near and solemn contemplation of the
awful change which awaits ce all, how eagerly
does the soul receive every thing in religion, phi!.
osephy, or personal experience which lifts, or
seems to lift, 'even a little way, a corner of the
vast curtain which hides from our mortel view
the qpirit-realm to which we go—letting.in gleams
of its immortal jny and glory. to light end cheer
onspaiufol path through the dark valley.
During a late illness, there coma a - drearn to me
as I slept, which left a solemn and ineffaceable
impress upon my mind, but to which I may seem,
by relating, to a:tach undue importance; for, af
ter all, it was but a dream; End I hardly know
how it is that I have so laid it away in my heart,
as a treasure of exceeding worth—almost as a
heavenly revelation. It was no wild, mystic and
fanciful dream, but straw!c distinct and beauti
fully consistent throughout; and it is with' the
most faithful 'truthfulness that I now venture to
relate it, hoping that to come hearts it may have,
or seem to have, a meaning and a purpose,
to my vision it seemed that my hat bout-of the
life of earth was swiftly passing from me. The
dread presence of Death filled my chamber with
mourning and gloom, and awe unspeakable. My
heart, likes caged bird, now straggled and flat
tered wildly in my breast.. now seemed sinking,
faint, and panting with weariness and fear. The
left mist was creeping slowly over my eyes, and
I heird but imperfectly the words of prayer, sor
row and tenderness, breathed around me. Dear
forms were at my si le, clasping my cold
,hands,
and weeping upon my neck. The bosoni - of the
best beloved pillowed my poor head—her hand
wiped thedeath dew from my brow--she spoke
to me strong words of comfort, crushing down the
great anguish of her heart the while.
It was no hoar of joy or triumph ; my spirit
was not buoyed up by exulting 'faith, nor did an
gels minister to it. the peace and consolation of
Hearreni; but storm, and darkness, and fear en
comp'64l it, filling it with wild regrets, an awful
enpectation,e sore dismay. Its feet were already
set in the river of Death ; bat like a timid child, it
shrank from the chill, midnight waver, and clung
convulsively to its earthly loves, vain, alas ! to
protect, powerless to detain !
Soul and body parted, as they part who have
lived and suffered and toiled together, in bondage,
but whetinve one another, and who ' at law are
torn asuntfor by the inexorable will of a rernorse-
lea? master.
But jay for one of these! for whom the wear
iness of mortal bondage, was to give place to the
freedom of eternity—the pain,. the struggle, the
fear, the sorrow of its earthly lot, to peace, rest,
assurance. and joy unspeakable! for, at last, that
soul, breaking from this poor life, with one glad
hound, leaped into immortality ! Oh ! the sud
den comprehension of the height and depth of
the fullness of being! How every thought, and
aspiration,' end affection, and power, seemed
springing up into everlasting life! -
But inethought.That the first feeling or senti
ment of which I was coniciouS, was freedom
freedom, which brought with it a sense of joy and
power, and glorious exultation, utterly indescri
bable in words. Ah ! it was beautiful, that this
crowning gift of God to His creatures, which bed
ever been so dear to my human heart—this prin
ciple which here I had so much adored, was the
first pure and perfect pdrtion of the Divine life,
whose presence I hailetbwith the great and voice
less rapture of a disenthratled spirit.
bethought that I witness nu immediate visible
manifestation of Deity heard no stubble revela
tion of the Divine existence; but that I received
fulness of faith and greatnes.sof knowledge in lone
liness and stillness, yet instantaneously, and more
like recollections than revelations. Cloud after
cloud rolled swiftly away from the mysteries of
eternity, till all' was meridian brightness and sur
passing glory. The presence of Deity was round
about me everywhere—felt, methought, not be,
held; it flowed to me in the air, °every undula
tion filled,.titith - soul"—flossed about me in the
rapt silence, like an allvervading galena, diffus
ing itself abroad overate great immensity of be
ing.
There wee no certain unveiling of my eyes to
behold the burning splendors of the dread abode
of the Sov.-reign of the Uniierse . —"the city of
our God," girdled about w,ith suns--over wheat
"crystal battlements" float banners of light—With
in whose courts bow the redeemed in ceaseless ad
oration; there was no sudden unsealing of my
ear to, the triumphal psalms of the blessed—to the
grand resounding march of the stars. And, me•
thought, no fair creatures of light came to me at
once, to bear me upward, nor was my soul eager
tedepart on swift impatient wing, from the dear,
though darkened, scenes of earth, and the strong,
though transient,tessociations of time ; but it
lingered. hovering over that chamber of death .
from which now arose o passionate burst of grief
—the deep sobbing anal wild swell of the first
storm of sorrow. Then, methought my soul look
ed down upon its perishing companion in toil and
suffering—the worn and resigned body; marked
the rigid limbs, the parted hue, the pale and sunk
en cheek. the shadowed eye, and all the mor
tality settled on the brow—looked upon these, and
felt no sorrow; but eh I the tears and groans of
those dear bereaved ones had power to grieve it
still—to "Disturb that soul with piety," yet not
such mournful piety as it had.kaown on earth.
.A :serene and comprehending faith in the wisdom
and loving core of the Father reconciled it to all
things—the years of this life to the vision of its
new existence seemed shortened to brief days, and
thus the time of release for all who suffer and toil,
near at band. , Yet with great yearnings it linger
ed there, its earthly love not destroyed, not weak
ened, but made stronger far and purer, more like
to the love of Heaven.
Theta, methougbt, a form of ineffable beauty,
with a countenance of peace, wherein was hu- ,
man love breaking through celestial glory, came
to me, and said—.oh, daughter of earth, it is now
chine to go forth with the freedom of an immortal,
among the infinite worlds—to range at will through
the vast domains of the wide and wonderous ere
ation—to track the shining paths of beneficent
power, leading on from beauty to beauty. and
glory to glory, through the grand and measureless
universe of God. • Shall we viiit those fair worlds,
those radient eters, thou seest shining afar in the
clear depths of airthear who base known no

rests with is perpetual warmth and serenity; whose
inhabitants dwell in love, and. worship, and con
led; where there is neither death nor oppression,
suffering nor sin—no spoiler sod name "to make

who Bee' from their brothers, and-call on God in
secret places. .
"There also the laws of power anal ba-mony
