= "Money answere,h all things."-Soiomon.
When l was young the system of
extravaganza which is row attaining
an alarming asccndency, was almost
altogether unknown.--There were few
persons except the really wealthy who
INDUCED in what are now deemed ac-
tual necessaries, tut which at that time
would have been regarded as exces.
sive luxuries. a young man just laun
| ching into the world seenledto have in
mind the motto | have adopted, and
set about the making of money so in
dustriously and Systematically, that an
observer of the present day would
have concluded he was bent upon
boarding up the fruits of his labour
with the same selfish spirit which ac-
tuaics the despicable miser. But an i'm
pulse quite the reverse governed bis
frugal outset. He knew that the un.
fiedged bird could not at the first es-
say, mount up and sail upon the wind,
he knew that be himself had crawlcd
before he walked; and the plain COM
mon sense reflection which an obser-
| vation of these natural truthes awaken
ed,led him to suppress inordinate ambi-
tion, and be content with the humble
but honorable walks of ordinary
life till by the dint of his labor and e.
economy, he should be enabled step by
step to ascend the hill of llfe-Tbe
precarious schemes of temerarious
speculation were rejected for the safe
and certain rules of frugal industry
and a proper regard for these rules
invariably led him onward 10 affluence,
or competence at least.
That was the golden era of unosten-
%tatious simpIicity-The age
-"Long since gone by,
Vuen MAIDS the uiSiaH IAN N0ulQ ply;
TAen simple industry was seen
AT evening dancing on the green;
Then sweet simplicity adorn'd
Each nymph that ostentation scorn'd,
And health and joy walk'd hand in hand,
And peace and plenty crown'd the land"
Such a thing as a sheriG.s sale
was unknown among US, and as fer
an insolvent debtor or the insoIvent
laws-such terms were then as incom.
%prehensible as the word fruga ALTA
seems to be in the presaut day.
The truth of my motto now receives
as unanimous a consent, as ever it did
and the longing after that important
desideratum, instead of being less,
is much greater than in former days;
but the same discretion which dicta ted
to former generations the property of
outstanding whatever sum exceeded
the actual requirements ofnecessiiy ap-
pears to have lost its influence, and the
disposition now s. prevalent TO meet
the income with corresponding expen
ses, always prevents a surplus, andaoo
often makes the expenses exceed the
income. In thelatier ease embarrass-
ment ensues which insted of being rec.
tilted by rc%trenchment, is increased by
a vain effort to keep up appearance,
and eventually. terminates in bsnk-
ruptcy, shame and poverty.
