Don't clutch thoe .-.locks so tightly; don't spend so many sleepless nights about that farm; lou't let them houses worry you, you have not a "quit claim" deed to any of thriii, nor a "fee simple' in them only - a life estate, ami perhaps not that. Tliov are God's auoT the above arc his words, no' il'uclwnjc in llt'd y.ir. That i the war of death; the "black-eyed monster' is on your track; he has al ready entered your house. Where is that little child? Where that loving wife? Where that dear parent? Gone in the grave; returned to dust. And where are yoii? Rapidly pressing after" them. No discharge in that war. You say I am a fanatic. Js he a fa natic who saves you from death? Is he a fanatic who only speaks of, and di rects, you towards your highest inter cuts? If either of us is such, is it I or is it you? I leave.thc1 "question, but be seech you to hcett the counsel. Has life Wen what you had hoped? Have no thorns grown by your pathway? Is it all a ilowery bed of ease? O, sianing man. dying man; wretched man, pre pare to meet thy God; live for eternity; you will'soon be done with time, for there is no discharge in that war. A few days since, I lookup my morn ing paper. Great black lines went from ton to bottom. "What is.thc matter,'' CiiLmy neighbor, at the breakfast table, "why is the journal in mourning?" "An ex-Governor of your own -State, North Carolina, is dead." He was a good man, true, said the papers. But this would not keep him'. Xo discharge in that war. Dead! dead! dead! Put your car against the ground un der your feet, and you can' hear the sol fmn sound as it rumbles in the'bowcls of the earth, amid the bones of your own, and other fathers and friends.
