How to AdmoniSh.

We must consult the gentlest manner and
softest seasons of of address; our advice must
not fall, like violent storm, bearing down and
making those to droop. whom il is meant to
cherish and refresh. 1t must descend. as the
dew upon the tender herb, or like melting
flakes of snow; the softer it falls, she longer
it dwells upon. aud the deeper it sinks into
the mind. If there are few who have the
humility to receive advice as they ought, it is
often because there are few who have the dis
cretion to convey it in q proper vehicle and
can qualify the harshness and bitterness of re-
proof, against which corrupt nature is apt to
revolt by an artful mixture of sweetening and
agreeable ingredients To probe the wound
to the bottom with all the resolution Of good
spiritual surgeon, and Jet with all the tender
ness and delecacy of a friend, requires a very
dexterous and mastery hand. And affable
department and complacency Of behavior will
disarm the most obstinate; whereas, if instead
of calmly pointing out their mistake, we break
out into unseemly sallies ofpassion, We cease
to have any influence.
