TO-DAY'S QUOTATION.
TIMARU'S INVITATION TO CHIIISTCHURCH. You must come homo with mc and bo my Rucst; You will give joy to mo. ant] I will do All that is in my power to honour you. Shelley—" Hymn to Mercury." THOUGHT FOR THE DAY. I cannot call riches hotter than the bajiKaso of virtue; the Roman word is better, *'• impedimenta," —for as the bag<ja-/; is to an army, so is riches to virtue; it cannot bo spared nor left behind, but it hindercth tho march; yea, and tho euro of it sometimes losetli or disturbeth tho victory. Of great riches there is no real use, except it be in the distribution; the rest is but conceit. —Bacon.
