"O One Horse cent pull a man these days. -
In walking the streets few days since 1 heard
negro make the above remark. At the same time
saw a little nan riding in buggy driving two urge
horses, which the cause of the remark. The
man, suppose, would weigh about seventy five but
seemed fully convinced that his horses had much
as they could pull; and 1 believe that if elephants
could be procured he would drive two of them.
Such is not peculiar to that little man alone We
it everywhere and are naturally led to inquire,
whence this great propensity for " showing off?'
Whence this extravaganza? Whence this luxury?
Is it the result of ignorance BY no means. If we
go among the most ignorant economy, and
man moving in his right sphere. The simple fact
that negro noticed this shows that it is not tolera
ted by the ignorant. The most ignorant the most
natural and this simple fact satisfies me that the
object of the above remark something bordering
the ridiculous.
Although this idle remark, yet there is
much connected with it. In the first place it shows
that our people arc falling into luxury, which, from
examples i'll history, is proven to be dangerous
thing. Secondly, luxury and virtue not usually
found together; hence virtue, that "amaranthne
flower earth" is sadly decreasing. Thirdly, if
virtue is decreasing in the middle of the nineteenth
century, the most enlightened age of the world
may argue successfully that 1.-the progressive spirit
of the age does not tend to enhance virtue" Fourth
ly, if knowledge and virtue cannot go hand in hand,
a seems to be proven, had we not better abandon
knowledge? Virtue is required to ensure happiness
hereafter. Filthy, the more knowledge get the
more appreciate the attributes of Deity, and the
more promote the ends of man. So we evil
IDENTIFY in dilemma. We wonder, revolve all
thoughts in mind we unable to solve it.
Thus from this small occurrence we might deduce
important things. 1t is certainly of the compo
nents of luxury and when we behold luxury and
its concomtant vice. around us cannot but pause,
and consider where it will end. 1t seems that ariS
tocracy strong foe to republics is also growing up
A coach and four will soon be in vogue, and then
death to the one horse ''in toto. 5" R. R.
