ADDRESSED TO YOUTH.

1t is necessary to recommend to you, sin
cerity and truth. This is the basis OF every
virtue. That darkness oi character, where
we can see no heart; those foldings of art,
through which no native affection is allowed
to penetrate, present an object, unamiable in
every season of life, but particularly o1ous
in youth. Ii, at an age when the heart is
warm, when the emotions are strong, and
when nature is expected to show herself free
and open, You can already smile and deceive,
what are we to look fox, when YOU shall be
longer hackneyeti in the ways of men; when
interest shall have completed the 0btluia-
tion OF your heart, and experience shall have
improved you in all the arts OF guile? Dis
stimulation in youth is the forerunncr OF per-
hdy in old age. It's first appearance is the
fatal owmen of growing depravity, and ft.-
ture shame. 1t degrades parts and learning;
obscures the lustre of every accomplish
mcnt, and sinks you into contempt with God
and man. AS you value, therefore, the ap-
probation of heaven, or the esteem Of the
world, cultivate the love of truth. In all your
proceedings, be direct and confident In
Scnuity and candor possess the most pow
crfnl charm: they bespeak universal favor,
and carry IN apology for almost every fail
ing. The path Of truth is plain and safe
pam, tliit vi idIaNipOi io piShiiiS iIdHS.
After the first departure from sincerity, it is
not in yonr power to stop. One artifice un-
avoilably leads on to another; till, as the in
tricacy of the labyrinth increases, you are
left cntangled in your own snare. Deceit
discovers a little mind, which stops at tenn
porary expedients, without rising to compre-
hensive views of conduct. 1t betrays at the
same time, dastardly spirit 1t is the re-
source OF one who wants courage to avow his
designs or to rest upon himself. Whereas,
openness of character displays that gcncr-
Gus bollness, which ought to distinguish
youth. To set out i'll the world with no 9TH
cr principle, than crafty attention to in
terest, bctokens one who is destined foI
creeping through the inferior walks of life;
but to give an earlier preference to honol
above gain when they stand in competition;
to despise every advantage, which cannot be
attained without dishonest arts; to brook nc
meanness, and to stoop to no dissimulation
are the indications of great mind, the pre-
sagcs of future eminence and distinction ir
future life. At the same time this virtuous
sincerity is perfectly consistent with the
most prudent vigilance and caution 1t Is
| opposed to cunning, not to true wisdom. II
| is not the simplicity ofa weak and improv'
dcnt, but the candor cf an enlarged and no
bic mind; of one, who scorns deceit, because

and who seeks no disguise, because he need.

a passing blush upon the cheek, single

into reward as great as the one den-
