Again |: He has faults which render him unharpy of> tentimes,and very disagreeahle to his neigh. bors; but he makes no effort to reform them, on the same plea. I was born so, and cannot help it. He is morosee in his temper, he knows il; but he says it is his way--is is natural 10 him. and it is useless to try and be otherwise. He hts a qnick way of speaking his mind, regardless ofthc feelings of others, and quile careless oe times. places, and persons and when the fault is hinted to him, he says, o that a my way.' So it is, and very bad way; ; and because it is your way. you ought to change it. @r.F-. s =. s4 Another is petulent, fretfal exceedingly, seeing faults in everybody, hari to please, and never suited or satisfied. Age never cures it; with years it is nothing bettered, but raihar grows worse. Grace woull cure it. Prayer and watching would do more for such a temper than blislers ansi leeches fur brain fever. You never seri. ously tried to reform. You think your tenn per is natural, ana therefore no, to be changed. But all that is sinful is natural. If you were getting more holy. you would be improving in disposition. It is more grace you need. To mako every thing
 pleasant, tho change must be in you, not in things around you.
