the position—his long experience in the

THE 'NEW-YEAR
Since-last the : Agitator was welcomed
at the pleasant firesides of its Tairens'
the "Old . Y,ear,l' as,it is cailed, (though
why so called we • know not) has been
gathered into the grave of Time. Gath
ered' In, not fl ' ES the lieaVy-headed shoOke,
of wheat are `gathered, the cockle and
briers carefully thrown out, but with
crimes and - shames which L disfigure, as
well as the noble deeds and - healthy
triumphs which adorn, its" record.—
What is done is done, what'is 'Written
is written ; and, • in' so far as the Old
Year is.concerned, the acts and the re
cord-cannot be changed. - , Just as every
man and woman wrought in the • year
of . grace 18(17,—just as every rational
creature sowed,—so each , must .appear
in its annals, .so eaCti, will_ infallibly
reap in the time Co come.
Were it possible to transpose tinfe)lnd
events, and convert the future into the
present ;It, will, d,oubtless the present
i
mode of observing January First would
be frupo sable. From allay" of rejoicing,
and, with too many, a (lay of excess, it
would in thousands of cases, become a
day of doubt and misgYvini ., Life, of
,
itself; is of little 'moment, just as its
loss is not the greatest evil known to
man. Yet, were the timid and time
serving to pause on the thrsshold of the
New - Year, and reflect thai .there was
one year lbsS of life on Ainicredit side
of the great ledgerte their account, and
one more passed to the debit sido;.it is
to be presumed thut they would hug the
Old Year a little closer as it glides down
the - declivity z of the Past. However, it
is not otir purpose . to lessen the inno=
cent festivities of men, ' but rather to
turn the fashion to good account::: '
Sc ehow, we rather pity the man Or
woman who lets the First Day of Jan
uary'go by without thorough retrospec
tive and prospective examlilation. The
t
man or woman vho does not, at least
once a year, ask he questions :—"Have
I made the most of my ' opportunities
% - r - WT: f=rtn'provernent .during the year
k:
,Pr ded ? Have I'made the' world
;tter? Have I made those , de
t upon me,„happier ? Have 'in
_
in mental And moral stature?
How can I best fulfil the purpose for
Which I am created during the year to
come? •
.
, .
Grave questions these—seldom asked
by thousands. Thousands Of young
men and women, for whom nature has
done well, education much, and experi
ence very little, never ask.atcheso ques
tions.' They are subßetive 'enough, but
only as regards their liselfish -propensi-
L;es. To get; rich, to be courted and
Clattered, 'Co dress, and kill time in a il
tinfoil of enjoyment—these 'objects, , if,
they may be thus dignified, constitute
the sum of life in the ,eyes of very
many. "Killing time" may do when
one has too much of that article on
.11and ; •but when time dick, by inches at
the hands ofa frivolous man or woolen),
the day of its final obsequies fills them
with namel Os -fears end awful pert ur
bad on . Whitkills time slays ids best
Mend. 'Time is the ffiendly "rope
which saves the shipwrecked mariner;
the inch of holding ground whickstays
the foot of the traveler on the brink of
.he precipice. Fancy the castaway
eursing the rope wh ch drew him out of
,he awful surges, or the travels yhose
;not( is stayed on thd • brink of destrue
tionl, complaining of the rock •A•hich
, avdd him. Yet, the man who studies
to kill time is not a whit less absurd
and ungrateful.
It is to be hoped - that no man, or
woman, began the Nev . l Year by kill
ing time. There is vastly 'more work to
be done than there is time to do It in—
the hands to do it being se few. At
present, the world's workers are wretch }
edly overworked, because so many are
engaged in "killing *me" when
,they
should be eniploying it fOr their own
and the world's advancement: Those
who workhave tolfeed the "time kill
ers,'"f and the vietins of appetite. We
can think of no better argument for in
dustry and temperance than this: The
in i dusirous and frugal must support the
hayand drunken, either .as-family de
pendents, paupers, or criminals. There
is ,no escape from this sort bf taxation
So long as indolence and intemperance
command a premium.!
Every young man should devote his
energies to Use. Pleasure should be
the incident, and not the Object of life.
The New Year is a good starting point
for the race of improvement.: - Many a
young man danees;smokes, and drinks
up a splendid library before he is thirty.
He exchanges a perpetual pleasure for
those which are evanescent. But that
is not thelvor.st of it. The pleastires of
Sense sap the Strength of body and
mind, and thus debase the soul. There
was never a greater mistake. From
twenty to thirty most men form their
characters for life. If self-deformed
th&senlainder of life Is too short to cm . -
reeeit.
