hBut he Is a Gentleman"

Not long since we CHANGED 10 hear a
short dialogue between mother and her
daughter, who had just arrived at the age
Of :swee, siXteen,' on the propriety OF
assoclating with certain individual who
was no named. but whom The mother
seemed anXIous that her daughter should
shun. From what We could learn from
the conversation, it seemed that the indi
vldua in question possessed proposes
sing exterior, dressed we'll, was familiar
and aflable in his manners; but managed
to keep up his head in what is generally
termed good society" IN consequence
OF his winning ways but who was,
nevertht less a hcartleS, deprayod wretch
"a debauchee and gambler. 1t was al
ter these quail ties Of the man Lad been
portrayed by the anxious mother as a
warning 10 her Inexperienced daughter
that the aitless CIR! exclaimed, as though
She had hit upon reason that more than
ovcrwrjghed all her mothers o. &C.
tons. But he is gentleman.
These words struck our mind forcihly
nor will the honest simplicity with which
they were uttered be soon enaced "But
he is a gentleman" What then, why
these cannot be vices-a gentleman
would not Practice anything that is not
proper, is undoubtedly the conclusion
to which the unsophisIicated mind of the
girl at once arrived. How mueh misery
how much disappointment, how much
overwhelming sorrow and regret, has
this one short sentence caused in the
world. How many heartless Williams are
there who move even IN The first circles
and whose characters are known TO be
infamous, and who yet hold up their
heads for 10 other reason than because
they are GENTLEMEN--that is to say they

person, ahable manners. and good SUI
! OF clothes. How few there are who look
beyond these accomplishments in form
ing their estimate of character. Let a
nan be ever SO corrupt let his private
character be what it may, If he only pos
sesses the little external accomplishments
! it will not answer, under the present
constitution OF society, to censure him,
! for che is gentleman" But let fe-
male wander from the path Of virtue
and proprety-yes. let her even be sus-
pected, though she may be ever so charm
/ ing this grand salvo, "But she is a la
| dy,' will not be sufficient TO cover her
failing. Such certificate will not sus
tain her; she must be consigned to dis
grace and infamy, In what consists the
difference? Why is it that man may
practice with IMMUNITY vices which will
not be for moment tolerated in the 9th
er sex? That there is a false standard OF
gentility set up in society there can be
40 doubt. That good old maxim of
Pope's that worth makes the man. has
gone out of vogue, at least with very
large portion Of society. Or else differ
ent standard OF worth has been set up,
| which is to measure a mans worth by
the quality Of the cloth he wears, Or The
grace with Which lie bows.
Thus it is no uncommon thing to see a
man who can drink, gamble, swear, and
commit any species Of vice, and sill he a
III these men could he

real characters could be exhibited in
their naked deformity to the artlrss youth
there would be little danger TO be appre
hcnded from them, But the cloak M
der which their business is disguised rem
der them doubIy dangerous associates
for youth; for it enables ,hsm first, to
gain confidence by their easy address,
then to lure them to rum. Every parent
who has the good Of his offspring at heart
should not hesitate to expose the vipers,
nor let the consideration that she is a
gentleman have any weightin restrain
ing him from Withdrawing his children
from The society and influence Of such
men. 1t may be an unpleasant task, but

Eaegant Extract.

There is an even-tile in human life;
a season when The eye becomes dim and
the strength decays, when The winter of
age begins to shed upon the human head
its prophetic SHOWS. 1t is the season
Of lie to which the autumn is most anal
ogous and which il beromes, and much
it wotld prof you, my elder brother, to
mark the instruction which the season
brings. The spring and summer Of your
days are gone, and with them not oay
Joys they knew, bit many OF the fFleads
who gave thrm You have entered upon
the autumn of your being-and what
ever may have been the profusion Of your
spring; or he warm temperament Of your
summer, their is a season of stiffness or
solitude which the benifcence heaven
affords you in which you may mediate
upon the past and future, and prep're
yourself for the mighty change which
you may soon undergo.
Ii Is now that you may understand the
magnificent language Of heaven; it min
giles lis Voice with that of Revelation; it
summons You to these hours when the
leaves fall and the winter is gathering, to
that evening study which The mercy Of
Heaven has provided in The book of sa'-
walton. And while the shadow valley
opens, which leads to the abode of death,
it speaks OF that love which can comfort
and save, and which can conduct 10 those
green pastures and those still waters
where there is an eternal spring for the
children Of God.
