The DlFFERENcE.-Let man OF standing
and influence commit fault and low soon it
is overlooked: If he is wealthy, the impro-
prieles of his conduct are considered no re-
proach, and he is as much honored and caress-

and lie is condemned and despised. and it is
next to an impossibility to retrieve his char
acter. Such is the course of the world. Hon
ors, property, high standing. make all differ
ence. We are for calling villiany by its right
name wherever discovered, whether beneath a
costly and fashionable exterior. or in halls of
Congress or in the shanty. The pretended
righteous judgement OF the world is wrong
Worth and worth alone should be caFressed
and acknowledgement and initiated while
vice should be detes,ed and abhorred in whom
soever discovered. If this should be our cri-
terion of jud cement, in selecting men for our
variols offices, thousands of the humble and
the unobtrusive would be elevated to posts
where ,hei, virtues would shine aud their ex-
amples be salctary upon the whole nation,

lighted to walow, and cease 10 exert per-
