WE AlL FADE, AS A LEAF.' -
THIS morning, when I opened my fludy
fhutters, and faw the brown oak leaves
flying through the turbid air, heard the
rocking winds piping lb'udrWdlmark-'
ed tliat the frozen ground was half conceal
ed by the fnow and fleet of November, I
turned to Ifaiah, and" copied my text. Tho'
naturally of a lively temperament, yet the
flate of myJpirits is regulated much by the;
feafon, and by the fky, and my gaiety, like
Mercury, in tne pnnoiopinc iuuc, nics in

In this mood of fadnefs, viewing, the defo
late ftate of nature, how natural for us to
feel the fentiment, and ufe thV expreflion of
