Fruits Of Kindness.

Some people are curious in ascertaining
the product of a seed, and am very fond
Of tracing the effect of kind action.
AN English merchant resided many
years at Canton and Macao. where a sudden
reverse Of fortune reduced him from state OF
afHuence to the greatest necessity. A Chi
nese merchant, named Chinqua, to whom he
had formerly rendered service, gratefully
offered him an immediate loan OF ten thou
sand dollars, which the gentleman accepted,
and gave his bond for the amount This the
Chinese threw into the FIRE, saying, When
YOU my friend, came to China, was a poor
man. You took me by the hand, and, as
sisting my honest endeavors, made me rich.
Our destiny is now reversed; [ see you poor,
while am blessed with affluence' The by
standers had snatched the bond from the
flames. The gentleman, sensibly affected
by such generosity ,pressedhis Chinese friend
to take the security, which he did, and then
etfectualy destroyed it. The disciple Of
Confucius, beholding the increased distress
it occasioned, said he would accept his watch
or any little valuable, as a memorial of their
friendship. The gentleman presented his
watch, and Chinque, in return, gave him
an old. iron seal, saying, Take this seal
it is one | have long used, and possesses no
intrinsic value, but as you are going to In
dia, to look out after your outstanding con-
Germs, should fortune further persecute you,
draw upon me for any further sum Of mon
ey you may stand in need OF, sign it with
your own hanG, and seal it with this signet,
and l will pay the money"
How little did the English merchant i'm
agine that the seed OF kindness, sown in the
heart of his Chinese friend, would spring
up and yield such an abundant increase
| relate this anecdote to my younger friends,
that they may sec how kind action done to-
day may be gratefully acknowledged and
literally recomposed on some distant morrow.
Say what we viii, one to-day is worth more
than dozen to-morrows.
