Nature has Us mio-cesbive and its alternations in everything, from wet to dry, from heat to cold, Irom light to All the vegeUble creation has its alterations, its budding, its blossoming, its fruit season, and its apparent decay, again to revive, and bud, and blossom as before.

All the animal kingdom has its alternations, more or less mysterious and strange, always changing, never at rest There is nothing in nature that seems calcu-lated for, or destined to, an unalterable stale of repose. So far from that, everything seems predisposed to change. Such is peculiarly the condition of man. A state of rest with him is a state of death. As long as life is in him, there is continual alteration.

Man is a harp of "a thousand strings and perhaps throughout his whole life those finely toned chords are never tasked twice precisely alike. The chances in nature keep her bosom always warm and bursting with blessings; and to the never-ending changes of the human mechanism we are indebted for its kwping in tune' so long, lie who attempts to hold his arm, or even his finger, in one position loranylengih of time, will soon learn that continued change is the law of nature. Everything in nature reqnires.at stated periods, a certain degree of repose. This is as apparent in the economy of the vegetable as in the animal kingdom. From the tenderest shrub to the mightiest ouk, each has its season, when, as it were, the tide of life ceases, and seems for a while to slumber.

Everything living has its point beyond which its powers can not be taxed with impunity. Those who give themselves up to one pursuit, either cif body or mind, wear out niuoh sooner than those whose pursuits tas-k every day, more or less, all their faculties. The same system of alternations is required to keep the body so in fact, they are so intimately connected that the one cannot be diseased and the other not sympathize wi'h it. Man needs at times to bo gay as well as grave, and sometimes to be sad as well as joyous. The mind is as capable of stagnation as a pool of water.

It gathers noxious vapors as truly as does the air. It needs, as they do, its correctives. Tho mind is always active, whether sleeping or waking but it cannot always bo intent on the same subject. When jaded over the pages of Euclid, it finds relaxation in Tlutarch, Livy, or Hume; and when spent on history, replenishes its watted strength in perusing tho pages of tho poet or the romancer. Each change tasks new powers and new susceptibilities, and gives the others opportunity to rest.

It i3 to meet tho wants of beings thus constituted that we aro given a taste for amusements those that are corporeal, to task otherwise unemployed and dormant powers of the body, and thus make us healthier thoso that are intellectual-to tak otherwise unemployed and dormant powers of the mind, and thus improve, strengthen, and regunerate it; those that are social, to task otherwise unemployed and dormant sensibilities of the heart, and thus make it warmer and more alive to generous improssions. In a word, we are given a taste lor amusements, and wo aio given capacities to amuse, thU wo may gratily the one and us-e tho others for thu improvement of our health generally, both of body, mind, and heart sunt if wc do not advantages from them, we pervert them, just as much as we do the fruits of the earth when we overload our stomachs wiihthom.or distill from the in noxious liquors to injure and destroy us; and tlio amusements aro no more in fault in tlie one case than the fruits in the other. Iu both cases, tho fault is in tho abuse, not in the mc, of them. DISHONOKARLK. You may pay your debts punctually, says Gilbert, you may delraud no man, and yet may act dishonorably.

It is dishonest to give your correspondents worse opinion of your rivals in trade than they deserve, or to sell your commodities for less than their real value in order to get away your neighbor's customers, or to purchase at higher rates than the market price for the purpose of raising the market on another buyer, or to draw accommodation bills and pass loom to your banker for discount as if they arose out of real business transactions. You act dishonorably in every crse wherein your external conduct is at variance with your real opinions. You net dishonorably if, when carrying on a prosperous trade, you do not allow your servants and assistants, through whose exertions you obtain your success, to participate in your prosperity; as also if, after you become rich, you are unmindful of the favors you received when poor.

15. A dispatch from Ca bul savs The general belief of the complicity of Yacoob Kahn in the massacre of the British embassy, it is thought, did anticipate a wholesale massacre, but only a sufficient intimidation to induce Mayor Cavagnari to report his position in Cabul.

WAITINU FOR FRESH INSTRUCTIONS. Constantinople, Nov.

15. Pending the receipt of fresh instructions, Austin Layard, the British Ambassador, abstains from visiting the Porte. The present attitude of the government toward the Porte is attributed, in diplomatic ciclcs here, to a grave suspicion of an understanding between Kussia and Turkey, originating in the visits of Prince Labanoff, the Knssian Ambassador, to the Sultan, before he went to Lovida to visit the Citar; and on his return to Constantinople, it is reported, Labanoff will see the the Sultan again before his departure on a leave of absence. and the employes, nor the troops.

It is good to entertain a cheerful view of things and be heart broken more than twenty-our hours at a time. The coming of Gen.
