ELEGANT EXTRACT The grandeur
Of mans nature turns to insignifcance
all outward distinctions. His powers of
intellect, of conscience, of love, Of know
ing God, of perceiving the beautiful, of
acting on his own mind, on outward ma
ture, on his fellow creatures-these are
glorious prerogatives Through the vul-
gar error of undertaking what is COM
mon. we are apt, indeed, to pass these
by as of but little worth. But as in the
outward creation, so in the soul, the
common is the most precious. Science
and art may invent splendid modes of il
Illuminating the apartments of the opu-
lent; but these are all poor and worth
less compared with the light which the
sun sends into our windows, which he
pours freely, impartially, over hill and
valley, which kindies daily the eastern
and western sky; and so the common
Ii hts of reason, and conscience, and
love, are of more worth and dignity than
the rare endowments which give celebri-
ty TO few.-CAanning.
