"Generation after generation, says a fine Vi liter, have felt as we feel now, and their lives were as active as our own.. They pass away like a vapor while Nature wore the xtme aspect of beauty as when her Creator commanded her to be. The heavers shall .be as bright after ourgrayes as they are now around our paths. The world will have the same attractions for our offspring yet un born, that she once had for ourselves, and that she now has for our 'chat:troll. Yet a little while and all will have happened: The throbbing heat will be stilled, and we shall be atr rest. Our funeral Will 'wind its way and the prayers_will be said, and our friends will all return, and we shall be left behind in silence and darkness for the worm, And it may be for a shOrt time we shall be sp'- ken of, but 'the things o 1 life will creep in and our names will soon be forgotten.
