“ Covet earnestly the best gifts.'*
The groat apostle of the Gentiles wn
perfectly acquainted with the sinful propen
suits of the human heart. Perhaps no per
son had ever any clearer views of the ini
potency of “ fleshly wisdom,” in raising
soul from sin to holiness than St. Paul, }t
•s epistles abound with directions concern
’ug u e education of youth. How earnestl
docs he exhort Timothy to give himself t
study, so tiiat he might not be a novice i
t.ie work tor which he was designed. ]
is of the greatest consequence to a youn
man to begin life with correct notions *
himself and of the world in general. Firs
as to himself. He ought to know that ;
the very ‘'est he is a fallen creature—tin
however great his attainments, lie may po,
sibly be “ ever learning and never able t
come to a knowledge of the truth.” Thi
consideration however,ought not to dam
lus ardor in the pursuit of useful know’
edge, but only serve to humble his prid
when he would feel disposed to count bin
self to have already attained it. Bounteou
nature has distributed her gifts with a mo;
| liberal hand, so that scarce one of the lit
man lace but that has something on whic
they can improve. The young man thet
fore should search dilhgcntly to find wh
! lie is best calculated to perform, and rou;
into action all the best powers and facultt
of the soul. Habits of the mind are formt
like habits of the body. By a longcontin
ance in one wav it becomes familiar and
changed with difficulty. It is then a m;
ter of consequence that the habits of thin
ing be properly formed. ]f the thougl
are suffered to dwell on objects that
low or trifling, the mind insensibly los
its relish for all that is noble, and is wi
difficulty raised above more sensual enji
ment. In youth while all the faculties a
flexible a little close attention will turn t
thoughts into a proper channel, bin. if it
neglected then, the inind becomes vulg.
all its brightness is obscured by the fihh
which it is plunged, and the man renu
through lite groveling in the dirt, a
scarcely raised above the level of the brut
£ 2 he subject to be continued.1
