kIind Your Own Business.

The Richmond Dispatch says many
good things. 1t contains wholesome adj
vice to all classes, but we think the follow
ing is about the best that has come under
our notice for some time. 1t applies with
force everywhere. A mans business is
better known by his neighbors than him
self, A young lady's love affairs are as
common as household words 10 the street
sadders, and the day Of her happy transit
from the monotony and staleuess OF maiden
dom TO the bliss and felicity OF matrimonial
exaita'ion, is always known several days
before she is acquainted with the fact her
self And so it's ia a'raos: every iaiagin-
able condition Of life, our neighbors are a
leeiie head Of us, in our affairs and terri
bly, behind in their own. The Dispatch
says:
For at no period of the worlds history
were the human race so unquiet and so
given to attending to the business Of others.
Any man exhorted in these times to do
. MS own business might replv that it :, u.
quite unnecessary, as he had some other
man to do it for him. As individuals, as
states, and as nations, we overlook our own
shortcomings, and waste much valuable
time and excellent criticism upon the faults
Of others. The man who studiesato be
quiet and to mind his own business is con-
s;dered an antediluvian, an old fogy, the
mere fossil remains of man. What RICH,
has he TO pursue "the even tenor of bis
way" when all the rest of mankind are
in an everlasting state of excitement and
exultation' How dare he keep cool, and
calm and quiet, when the whole world is
in hurry and furry And what base
ingratltude to refuse to attend to other peo-
pies business when other people cheerful
ly attend to his
In this age of progress, steam, electrici-
ty, reform and revolution, man will have
to STUDY" very hard to succeed in being
"quiet." There is but one probable place
of repose, the couch upon which he sleeps
his last slumber, and even the quiet OIL
that spot is not secure from this go-ahead
age, which, in the great marts of trade
makes nothing Of running a street over a
graveyard, and, shovelling out the bones
of its ancestors, bids them, with sncer,
make room for their betters.
