IT has been common for people in this country,
on the New Year's day, to congratulate each other
with mutual willies of a happy new year : and the
Monitor, t; king the hint from this ancient
cattom, will offer a few remarks and lessons of ad
vice, which if well obferv^d will tend to, render
the year, that we are beginning, an improving and
coafequently a happy portion of our lives.
Begin the year with an impartial review of pad
life, and with a sincere and firm re solution to rec-'
tify whatever has been araifs.
If you have hitherto been slumbering in indo
lence, it is now time to awake out of deep ; tor
Touch is to be do ie, and the time to do it in is
fliort. —If the polfonous weeds of vice have been,
sprouting up in your minds, resolve now to erad
icate them. —If yon have been addicted to pro
fane (wearing, to using the cup qf intemperance,
or to any other practice that degrades the human
character and wastes the estate, improve the pref-'
ent opportunity to break the pernicious Jpell and
to deliver yourfelf from the pit of ruin.—lt "yen
have hitherto lived in domestic jars, fettle imme
diately a treaty of peace in your own house :—to
yourfelf and family this is of much more impor
tance than even the general peace in Europe.
If you have neglected to govern and educate
your children in such a manner as tends to lead
them to the practice of good moral!;, " turn over
a new leaf," and for the future let your example
and precepts combine iu training them up in the
way they (hould go.
If you have been careless or extravagant in point
of economy, begin a new course. Remember that,
four cents Caved every daf, wjll amount at the
end of the year to fourteen dollars and sixty cents.
Regulate your expences according to your in
come : if that be finall, carefully Hudy economy
and let iodudry fopply the deficiency. Ifyou are
one of the Ton, or a leader of factions, try, for
once, to make good morals fashionable. If you
have been raised to any considerable office, con
sider that your example will tend either to puri-i
fy or to poison the manners of others ; and that!
if you set an ill example, you will be answerable
even for its remotest consequences. If you are
rich, open your hearts to deeds of charity and ben
evolence. Extend a liberal hand to the children
of need, that the bleflings of such as are ready to,
perish may come upon you. Devote some of the,
furpluflage of your income to the education of the;
children of the poor, who would thankfully rife
up and call you blessed. Ina word, Rudy to be.
good and to do good. Let every day be marked
with deeds of virtue ; and then, on the last day of
this year, peaceful reflections' will sooth your
mind : or even if death thould intervene before
the fun (hould perform another annual revolu
tion, the testimony of a good conference will be
better than the fofteft down to your pillow, uni
will support you in the lall druggies of nature.
