OVER THE BUNSHINE OF EXIST. ENCE HANGS A BLACK CLOUD.
With the uncertainty-of-life is mingled thy ! dark mystery of death!" While, on the one hand, we catch the welcome sound of a new breath of life that tells of an addition to our
species, on the other we shudder as we hear the rushing wings of the Destroying Angel! The mighty voice of the Great Influogo which rules the Universe has pronounced oar fate; the dread Eat has gone forth, and every mortal man is doomed to die! Hat, though we cannot provent, can we pakipene daath? The question is fuo- mentora eren if it concern the prolongation of fife bat by single hour, inasmuch as every in- stinct prompts us to fight the boldest battle we can for this glorious bosa of existence. The promptings of instinet are but the sportanoons Voices of nature, and it is our duty to obey. Bat there still romains the question, can death be postponed by a single hour? Yes; for the world works in obedience to certain laws; and a study of these proves that those who have the judg ment and the will to buckle su the shield, which nature plaers ready to their grasp, may ward off. the insidious attacks of the implacable enemy of life, unl. it a ripe old age, the vital faculties gradually decay, and the Angel of Tear glides sofily into our presence, leading us, as it were, in a gentic slumber to the regions beyond the show of the tomb.
The Fell Destroyer, makes his flest approaches in many forms, but nous are more favoured by
him than that of a deadly for now preying upon the very vitals of Modern Society. What is thia
