A kies is worth a tlious'ind kicks. A kind word is moro valuable to the ost than a mine of gold. True greatness will be found to consist n openness of mind and soul. A truo man of honor fools humble ïimself when he cannot help humbling tbers. He tbat loves only bimself has onïy ne joy; be that lotes his noighbors bss nany. Calumny is the voioe of thoss who ïavo neitber a good heart nor a good understanding. Suspieiona and distrusts spring up in a ealous mind just as weeds do íl a rank oil. They who walk openly, and on the ligh road, want little guidance beyond he dictates of a right purpose. When the corn is near ripe, it bows bo head and stoops lower than when it vas green. The least controvcrted poicts (says 3axter) are usually most weighty, and of most nceessary frequent use to souls. Every human being lias a right to be ,reated with respect and kinduess, vhatever the station of life thsy fill. There is goarcely an evil which is not attended by. or productivo of, a corres)onding good as a balance in the scalc. Zeal should be like fire, which is not only hot, but bright; a blind horse may je full of mettle but he is ever and anon stumbling. Happiness is certainly the end of our being; pain aud misery are only incidental to it, and but too often are the result of the Fiolence which man does to bis own nature.
