PRIDE. There is no affection of the mind 90 much blended in human nature, and wrought into our very constitution, as pride. Itappears under multitude of dis guises, and breaks out into ten thousand different symptoms. Every one feels it in himself, and yet wonders to see it in his neighbor. Man is sinful, an ignorant, and a miserable being, and these three rea- sons why he should not be proud, are, not- withstanding, the reasons why he is so. To be proud of virtue, is to poison yourself with the antidote toll be proud of knowl- edge, is to be blind in the light; to be proud of authority, is to make your rise your downfall. The best way to humble a proud man is to take no notice of him. Civility is always strife.

If ever in the list of ruffians there was one who might almost expect to be blasted by lightning from heaven, it is the calm' cold, calculating, and brutal seducer. The starving poverty y-stricken wretch who steals aloaf of bread, may be excused. The dis. honest tradesman who seeks to defraud his enemy of bis superduous trash, may be punished in a very litde while with pain equal to his crime, as the injury they have wrought may be repaired; but who can brighten the ruin of female honor; who can prevent the tears which gush from her shrinking eyes, or bring back the rose which has fled forever from her cheek when abandoned by the base miscreanl who has triumphed over the susceptible af- factions of her nature, and Jeff for infamy to grasp, for poverty to prosecute. for igno- rance to insult, with no friend but forsaken virtue to faint at her frailty. and nojudges but envy and malevolence to breathe the damning hiss of violated purity at the fu- neral of her character hope has departed from her bosom and memory, as she roams in the visionary world of departed time, aud movers trembling over scenes of purity and love, never to be repeated or recalled, only gathers gloom more hor- rible to brood over, the utter desolation of fond woman's broken heart.

Religion is cheerful thing; SO far from being always at cuffs with good humor, that it is inseparably united to it. Nothing unpleasant belongs to it, though the spirit ual cooks have done their unskilful part to give an ill relish to it. A wise epicure would be religious for the sake of pleasure good sense is the foundation of both, and he is bungler who aimeth at true luxury, but where they are joined.-SGciNe.
