Franklin says, .sHe who has Trad &
has an estate." and never was true o,
more useful maxim uttered even by tha
great man. Many Of the rules Of conduct
laid down by hin, and practised, too, thru
his long life, which, if followed by men in
all times and ages, would greatly improve
the condition and circumstances Of the mul'
titude. The above saying is easily to be
understood by all, and applicable to all pro-
LESSONS and pursuits. A great day will i,
be for our country when youth shall be in.
duced or compelled to adopt some calling,
whether mercantile or what is called lib
eral profession, or what is really mechani-
cal. And great day will it be, when
more Of them shall choose the atter-to be
come RESPECTABLE mechanics rather than
second-rate lawy ers, doctors, or divines.
The above remarks were suggested by
little anecdoie we heard related lately
A young man, born heir of large estate,
was, at the age Of fifteen, regularly appren.
ticed to respectable and scientific mechan
ic, for the purpossof learning what is some.
times sneerngly called trade. There
was no necessity for such step, but the
father chose to dispose Of the education Of
his son, often repeating to him, he ,cho has a

came master Of his trade, and had the SUI
