GOOD AND BAD LUCK.

may here, as well as anywhere,
impart the secret Of what is called good
and bad luck. There are men who,
supposing Providence to have an i'm
plac spite against them, bemoan,
in the poverty of a wretched old age,
the misfortunes Of their lives. Luck
for ever ran against them, and for 9TH
ers. One, with good profession, lost
his luck in the river, where he idlej
away his time fishing, when he should
have been in the office. Another with
a good trade. perpe,ually burnt up his
luck by his hot temper, which provok-
ed all his employers to leave him. An
other, with a lucrative business, lost
his luck by amazing diligence at every
thing out his business. Another, who
steadily followed his trade, as steadily
followed his bottle. Another, who
was honest and constant TO his work
erred by perpetual misjudgments-he
lacked discretion. Hundreds lose
their luck by indorsing, by sanguine
speculations, by trusting fraudulent
men, and by dishonest gains. A man
never has good luck who has a bad
wife. I never knew an early rising,
working, prudent man, careful of
his earnings, and strictly honest, who
complained Of bad luck. A good
character, good habits, and iron indus
try, are impregnable to the assaults OF
all the i'll luck that fools ever dreamt of.
But when | see taiterdeInalion creep
ing out Of tavern late in the forenoon
with his hands stuck into his pockets,
the rim of his hat turned up, and the
crown knocked in, | know lie has had
bad luck-fo the worst Of all luck is
to be a sIuggard. kna,e, or ,ippl+r.
