Here, in early youth, before we have commenced our struggles with the world, or learned the necessity of assiduous attention to our own peculiar interests, friendship, planted in such a soil and fostered by such a season, cannot but prosper and ripen into an abiding, permanent love, which neither length of time nor revolving circumstances can ever change. In after life neither prosperity nor misfortunes, neither honour nor obscurity, neither age nor infirmities, can tear us from the friendships... which have been here formed anc matured, nor interrupt the calm, smooth current of social intercourse which springs from the youthful heart. As the affectionate child cherishes the tender recollection? of its parents and the early joys of home, so do our affections cluster around this endeared spot, and arounc the memory of those youthful friends who are so indis- solubly connected with it. And as a new asterisk is affixed to the name of some college companion, among those that appear upon each returning catalogue, we fee that another star has fallen from the bright galaxy oif youthful friendship, and that each of these returning events but tends to increase the gloom and desolation which continue to thicken around us as life advances, and cares multiply.
