Ii q WANT YOUR TALENTS APP
PREcIArED GET RIcH.'-That tells the
whole story m a nutshell. II you wish
TO be anybody in the estimation OF man
kind, get rich. No matter how pure
your morality, how lofty your asplra-
lions, how disciplined your mind, unless
you have a fortune you will never be
loved, noticed, or respected. But il
your ancestor CHANGED to be a miser,
and thus lett you a goojly heritage,
you are lawned on, courted, and fat
tered. II you are a real knave, or a
blockhead, it's OF no consequence Tor
you are rich. This blind idoiatry OF
wealth, the worship Of mammon, is
enough to make an honest man blush
for ms race. The almighty dollar
Is the whole end Of existence, and the
only object Of life. The minister of
God iorgeis his high calling, and
breaches for a higher salary HIS
congregation follow him TO the costly
and magnificent editicc, ostenslbly dedi-
Gated TO God, and instead OF meditating
on the true end Of life, they are obsorb.
cd in admiring their wi or envyirg
their n%eighbors' rich. garments, and
s:heming how the morrow shall add TO
their store Of wealth.
Extravaganza, fashion, and cheating
through our streets, and jostle ag 'inst
honest toll. Liveried iootrnen and
costly coaches hurry by, and splash
merit with mud thrown from the wheels
and thus in every phase OF life. The
loiling, honest poor are. despised and
condemned. Riches are coveted. sought
for and worshipped by the milIions.-
Honesty and truth, merit and talent, are
sold Tor a mess of pottage.' Too ot-
ten The most open dishonest y is forgiven
aud forgotten, because wealth blinds
the eyes and obli!erates the memory OF
the pubic. AN honest man is the
