From the West le aps outa thunder shout
That thiills the nations heart?!
The plotting chief and the legal thief
Grow white in the pubic mart;
Alid slhatncless fraud, that walks abroad,
And rules with an from hand,
W hose pets are thrown from zone to tone
Over ail the tortured lend :â
All the legion ry of Mouojyoly
That urapple the peopicâs life,
Things foul that fe: d,with Insatiate greed,
And fatier on peace of strife,
Now blanch ard cower at this mighty power

We've bearded the wood's grim solitudes,
We ve buried the waste in flowers,
Woo d the wild earth into fruittul birth,
And âcouched her iu fairy bowers,
Till the young winds rolled over seas of gold
And died in the fragrant hay,
Till the wanton rilis, by clatt ring milis,
Ran ausical through the day.
The songs of the virds, the rattle of words

The women within, with their househeld din

And our -plilts rose refreshed;

Mr. S. E. Waller started for a trip in Ice-
land in June, 1872. He gives an account of
* Six Weeks in the Saddle,â in a little vol-
ume from which we get an idea of the cus-
toms of the people there. The Icelanders
âare almost inconveniently hospitable. It is
| dfBcult to get a farmer, who keeps you a day
| Or two, to accept pay. Our author seems to
have done his best to requite his hosts by
| making himself amusing. Here we have an
instance of gative kindness and feminine
courage
in the morning I made a smali study, and
| after a very tolerable mea! and many good
| wishes, we rode off. All went well until we
| came to the river Markafijot, which happened
| to be very much flooded. Net liking to at-
tempt to swim under the circumstances, we
| rode on down the bank for some mules, end

âNo,â was the reply

show the Englishmen the way.â
Immediately an exceedingly
| young woman ran out, and nodding kindly
| to me, went around to the back of the house,
| caught @ pony, puta brifle on it, and not
taking the trouble to fetch a saddle, vaulted
fon his bare back, and sitting astride, drove
| her heeis into his sides and galloped off down
| the river bank as hard as she could go, shout-
ing for us to foilow
We became naturally rather excited at
such a display of dash on the partof such «

THE ECONOMY OF HUMAN LIFE.

FUL TO HIMSELF AND OTHERS.
COVETOUSNESS.
Riches are not worthy a strong attention ;
an earnest care of obtainiug them is there-
| fore unjustifiable.

| good, and the joy he taketh in possessing it,
| are grounded only ia opinion; form not thy
| opinion from the vulgar, examine the worth
]
|
| of thiags thyselfaad thou shal! not be covet- |
ous
An immoderate desire afler riches is a}
poison lodged in the soul; it contaminates
| and destroys every thing that was good in it
| it no sooner takes root there, than all virtue,
| all honesty, all natural affection, fly before |
the face of it.

lopen his coffer; nay, he considereth not
| himselfin respect of it; in the search after
| happiness be maketh himself unhappy.
As the man who selleth his home to purs
chase ornaments for the embellishment of it,
even so is he who giveth up peace in the
search of riches, in hope that he may be
happy in enjoying them
Where covetousness reigneth, know that
the soulis poor, Whoso accounteth riches
the principal good of man, wi'l throw away
all other goods in pursuit of them
Whoso feareth poverty as the greatest
evil of his nature, will purcnase to himself
ail other evils in the avoiding of it
Thou fool, is not virtue more worth than
riches? Is not guilt more base than poverty ?
Euough for his necessities isin every man ;
be content with it, and thy happiness shall
smile at the sorcews of tim whe heapeth up
more.
Covetousness burieth under ground mil-
lions of wretches; th se dig for their hard
masters what returneth the injury, what
maketh them more miseruble thao their
slaves.

The history of Lord Bacon would le

worthy of the philosophical biographer fe-
| mains yet to be written. The personal ner-
| rative of this master-genius or inventor must
| for ever be separated from the scala intellec-

| domestic history of this creative mind must
be consigned to the most humiliating chap-
ter in the volume of human life; a chapter
| already sufficiently enlarged, and which has
refulably proved how the greatest minds are
{
|
i
ânot freed from the infirmities of the most}
| vulgar.
The parent of our philosphy is now to be |
considered in a new light, one which others |
do not appear to have observed. My re-
searches into contempc
| have often convinced me that his philosophi-
cal works, in his own days and among his
own countrymen, were not only not compre-
| hended, but often ridiculed, and sometimes
| reprobated ; that they were the occasion of
many slights and mortifications which this
| depreciated man endured; but that from a
very early period in his life, to that last res
cord of his feelings which appears in his will,
this âservant of posterity,â as he propheti-
cally called himself, sustained his mighty
spirit with the confidence of his own posthu-
mous greatness. Bacon cast his views
through the maturity of ages, and perhaps
| amidst the sceptics and rejectors of his plans,
may have felt at times all that idolatry of
which has now consecrated his philso-
fam .,
phical works.
At college, Bacon discovered how â that
scrap of Grecian knowledge, the peripatetic
philosophy,â and the scholastic babble, could
not serve the ends and purposes of know-
ledge; that svilogisms were not things, and
that a new Jogic might teach us to invent
and judge by induction. He found that
theories were to be built upon experiments
When a young man, abroad, he began to
make those observations on nature, which
afterwards led on the foundations of the new
philosophy. At sixteen he philosophized
at twenty-six, he had framed his system into
some form : and after forty years of continued
jabors, untimshed to bis last hour, he left
behind sufficient to found the great
philosophical reformation.
On his entrance into active life, study was
not however his prime object. With his for-

KEVENGE
The root of revenge is in the weakness of
the soul; the abject and timorous are the |
most addicted to it.
Who torture those they hate but cowards?
Who murder those they rob but women?
The feeling an injury must forerun the re-
venging it; but the nuble mind disdaineth to
say, lt hurts me
If the injury itself is not beiow thy notice, |
he that doth it maketh himself so; Wouidst
thou enter the lists with thine inferior ?
Disdain the man who altempteth to wrong
thee; contemn him who would give thee
disquiet.
As the tempest and the thunder affect not
the sun or the stars, but spend their fury on
Stones and trees below ; so injuries ascend
selves on such a8 are those who offer them.
Poorness of spirit wii actuate revenge
greatness of soul despiseth the offence ; nay,
it doth good unto him who intended to have
disturbed it,
Why seekest thou vengence,0 man? With
| What purpose is it that thou pursueth it? |
Thinkesh thou to pain thine adversary by it?
Know that thyseif feelest its greatest tors |
ment
Revenge gnaweth the heart of him who |
1s infected with it; while he against whom it |
iS aimed remaineth easy,
It is unjest in the anguish it inflicteth;
therefore nature intended it not for thee.
The man who meditateth revenge, is not
| content with the mischief he hath received.
He addeth to his anguish the punishment due
unto another; while he whom he seeketh to |
hurt, gooth his way laughing; he maketh
himself merry at this addition to his misery.
Revenge is painful in the intent, and it 1s
dangerous in the execution ; seldom doth the
axe fall where he who iifted it up intended ;
aud lo! he remembereth not that it must |
| Pecoil against himself.
Whilst the revengeful seeÂąketh his enemy's |
hurt, he oftentimes procureth his own de-
struction ; while heaimeth at one of the eyes,
of his adversary, lo! he putteth out both his |
own
his end, he jamenteth
The
fear of justice taketh away the peace of his
own suul; the cire to hide him, from it des
stroyeth that of his friend.
Can the death of thine adversary satiate
thy hatred? Can the setting him at rest
if he athkaia not
Wouldst thou make him sorry for his of
he owneth not thy superiority ; nor feeleth he
more the power of thy wrath
In revenge there snould be a triumph of the
aveuger, and he who hath injured him should
feel his displeasure; he should suffer pain |
from it, and should repent him cf the cause. }
This is the revenge inspired from angerâ
but that which maketh thee great, is con-
tempt
Murder from an injury eriseth only from
cowardice ; he who inflicteth it, feareth thal
the enemy may live, and avenge himself.
Death endeth the quarrel, but restoreth
not the reputation ; killing is au act of caution
not of courage, it may be safe, but it is not
honourable
Nothing is so easy as to revenge an offence:
nothing is so honorable as to pardon it
The greatest victory man can obtain is over
retorteth itupon him who offereth
When thou me fitatest revenge, thou con- |
fesseth that thou feelest the wrong: when
thou complaineth, acknowlegest thyself burt
by it: meanst thou toadd triumph
pride of thy enemy?
That cannot be an injury when its not felt,
how then can he who depiseth it, revenge
it.
If thou think it dishonorable to bear anet-
fence, more is in thy power ; thou mayest con-
quer it.
Good offices will makes a man ashamed to
be thine enemy ; greatness of sou! wil! terrify
him from the thought of hurting thee. :
The greater the wrong, the more glory is
im partoning it; and by how much more
justifianle would be revenge, by so much
the more honour ie in clemyncy.
Hast thou a right to be « judge in thine
own cause; to be @ party in the act,

thou condemnest, let another say it is just. |

Lord Chesterfieldâs opinion, and he adds, |

as we are in a condition to render them

ingratitude; there never was any man yet |
so wicked as not to approve the one, and
detest the other; as the two things in the

ingratitude is the abridgment of ail bases |

The worst of ingraritude lies not in the
ossifled heart of him who commits it, but we
find it in the etfect it produces on him against

Mr. S. E. Waller started for a trip in Ice-
land in June, 1872. He gives an account of
* Six Weeks in the Saddle,â in a little vol-
ume from which we get an idea of the cus-
toms of the people there. The Icelanders
âare almost inconveniently hospitable. It is
| dfBcult to get a farmer, who keeps you a day
| Or two, to accept pay. Our author seems to
have done his best to requite his hosts by
| making himself amusing. Here we have an
instance of gative kindness and feminine
courage
in the morning I made a smali study, and
| after a very tolerable mea! and many good
| wishes, we rode off. All went well until we
| came to the river Markafijot, which happened
| to be very much flooded. Net liking to at-
tempt to swim under the circumstances, we
| rode on down the bank for some mules, end
fortunately found a house

âIs there a man who will show us a ford?â |
| we ssked again
âNo,â was the reply

| will do quite as well. Here, Thora, go and
show the Englishmen the way.â
Immediately an exceedingly
| young woman ran out, and nodding kindly
| to me, went around to the back of the house,
| caught @ pony, puta brifle on it, and not
taking the trouble to fetch a saddle, vaulted
fon his bare back, and sitting astride, drove
| her heeis into his sides and galloped off down
| the river bank as hard as she could go, shout-
ing for us to foilow
We became naturally rather excited at
such a display of dash on the partof such «
| pretty girl, and started off immediately in

Riches are not worthy a strong attention ;
an earnest care of obtainiug them is there-

lopen his coffer; nay, he considereth not
| himselfin respect of it; in the search after
| happiness be maketh himself unhappy.
As the man who selleth his home to purs
chase ornaments for the embellishment of it,
even so is he who giveth up peace in the
search of riches, in hope that he may be
happy in enjoying them
Where covetousness reigneth, know that
the soulis poor, Whoso accounteth riches
the principal good of man, wi'l throw away
all other goods in pursuit of them
Whoso feareth poverty as the greatest
evil of his nature, will purcnase to himself
ail other evils in the avoiding of it
Thou fool, is not virtue more worth than
riches? Is not guilt more base than poverty ?
Euough for his necessities isin every man ;
be content with it, and thy happiness shall
smile at the sorcews of tim whe heapeth up
more.
Covetousness burieth under ground mil-
lions of wretches; th se dig for their hard
masters what returneth the injury, what
maketh them more miseruble thao their

with iron that enters into their souls.

| for ever be separated from the scala intellec-

be consigned to the most humiliating chap-
ter in the volume of human life; a chapter

refulably proved how the greatest minds are
{
|
i
ânot freed from the infirmities of the most}
| vulgar.
The parent of our philosphy is now to be |
considered in a new light, one which others |
do not appear to have observed. My re-
searches into contempc
| have often convinced me that his philosophi-
cal works, in his own days and among his
own countrymen, were not only not compre-
| hended, but often ridiculed, and sometimes
| reprobated ; that they were the occasion of
many slights and mortifications which this
| depreciated man endured; but that from a
very early period in his life, to that last res
cord of his feelings which appears in his will,
this âservant of posterity,â as he propheti-
cally called himself, sustained his mighty
spirit with the confidence of his own posthu-
mous greatness. Bacon cast his views
through the maturity of ages, and perhaps
| amidst the sceptics and rejectors of his plans,
may have felt at times all that idolatry of
which has now consecrated his philso-
fam .,
phical works.
At college, Bacon discovered how â that
scrap of Grecian knowledge, the peripatetic
philosophy,â and the scholastic babble, could
not serve the ends and purposes of know-
ledge; that svilogisms were not things, and
that a new Jogic might teach us to invent
and judge by induction. He found that
theories were to be built upon experiments
When a young man, abroad, he began to
make those observations on nature, which
afterwards led on the foundations of the new
philosophy. At sixteen he philosophized
at twenty-six, he had framed his system into
some form : and after forty years of continued
jabors, untimshed to bis last hour, he left
behind sufficient to found the great
philosophical reformation.
On his entrance into active life, study was
not however his prime object. With his for-
