OLD FRIENDS TOGETHER. .
Oh, time is sweet, when toaoa moot,
With Spring's sweet breath around them,
And aweet the cost, when beaita are tost
If those we love havt found them.
And sweet tlie oiiud, that still caii find
A atar to darkest weather :
But nought .to me so aweet can be,
As old friends met together ! -
Those (rood days old, when Youth was bold,
And 1'iuie stole winfft to speed it.
Aad Youth ne'er knew how fast Time flew,
Or knowing, did not heed it i
Though gay each brow tharmeets us now,
For Ape brings winiry wsalher
- Yrt uought can be so sweet lo sea
As those old friends together '.
Tbe few long known, whom yeara have ahown,
Wilb hearts that friendship blesses;
And hand lo cheer, perdiauoe, a tsar,
To soothe a friend's distresses ;
.Who beiped aod tried, still side by side,
A friend to face hard weather !
O, thua may we yet joy to see
And meet eld friends together I
ROUSSEAU.
One of the moat extraordinary irton that ever
lived was John J. Rousseau. This man, in bis
origin, rue, and whole career, waa a moat atton-
tailing man.
lie was
eminent aa a writer 00 moral philosophy ; he was
1 QHtiniruiiiwd as A boiiiicar ccoooiuist tkiilod in
lightfully barmonioua to read iu Ihe language ; he
I was without a rival in tha age in which he lived,
fondly loved to call bia own.
Aud yet, this is but comparative fame for a man
I like Rousseau for whatever subject bis mind
dwell uimn, or bis pen touched, he ornamented
mind and heart overflow me wiib wild emoiiotia
I that could not brook' reatraim, but that bora down
all before them, like the overflowing burning lava
this man sett but at a teacher aud re organizer
of civil society. Tha world was nut his friend,
1 nor tha world a Uw i and, therefore, wilb the fool
inga which he poaseaaed, it was but natural that ho
I ahould desire to sea all society return to lb primi
I words and imagination, and a dialectic scarcely in
fenor to any human being, before or aioce hi day ;
a temper burning wilb the strongest and most va-
nod paasions that ever centered in a human breast ;
power of sarcasm, blasting, and swiftly hurled
aa the thunderbolt ; a degree of irony frightful to
the timid aenae t contemplate ; and those were
I bit combtnalioos, which he wielded witn the pow
er, lha skill, tha fervor, and tha perseverance of a
1 gigantic but falleu angel, struggling, to assail lha
I better and brighter regions pi Ihe sky. ua V'
