Profanity.

We have recently been thrown into large
companies of strangers at different places and
among the most disaerrcabe -four reminscen.
ees is that ofprofane language employed more
constantly and unreservedly than we ever heard
before. Whether this abominabe practice is
actually on the increase, or we were unl"rtu.
nate in falling into an atmosphere Of society
peculiarly infected with this moral malaria, we
are unable to determine. Certain it is that
our ears are yet ting!ing with the horrid eaths
and curses we have heard ascending almost
constantly to heaven from persons in every
grade of society. With no affectation OF
refinement, we now give utterance to our SELL
timents on the subject, and solemnly protest
against this most gratuitous and daring custom
by which the majesty Of the Supreme is daily
insulted.
That profane and irreverent use of the
name of the Greater and Redeem er Of the
world is coarse vuIgarism not to be tolerated
in the society Of ladies is universally admitted.
Even anvng the more refined OF the other sex,
such language is only employed out of their
company for the occasional purpose OF adding
point or emphasize to their most earnest con-
versation. But many persons who reProbate
the practice reserve to themselves the privilege
of using such language on special occasions,
and are willing to tolerate in others that which
they will not altogether abandon themselves.
By the customs Of society therefore it appears
to be considered sufficiently genteel to utter
the most impious language in the presence
and defiance of the omnipreseut Jehovah, pro.
vided that ladies are not within hearing, and
the occasion seems to call for more than ordna.
~ earnestness of expression.
We will not stop to inquire whether such
Difference 10 female taste is not itself Insulting,
by comparison, to the majesty of Heaven
Profane languagois direcly and Immediately
impious. 1t is, clear, emphatic, and undena.
bic declaration of the individual that he does
not and will not pay even a decent respect to
the Creator and Su prene Ruler Of the uni.
verse. In the category Of human crimes it
stands next to that form of blaspbemy which
the suriptures teach US is the sin never 10 be
forgiven.
We are persuaded that the general preva.
leuce of the custom Is due 20 the impression
that it is sign of manly courage. 1t is how
ever very questionable whether the courage it
is supposed to indicate is genuine, One thing
is certainly true; that it is no dishonor to any
man to fear his maker Far better would it
be to endure the imputa,ion Of cowardice like
this, than to expose oue'sself, by habits of out
rageous blasphemy, to the special vengeance
of Heaven!--Raleigh Post.

Personal independence.

By personal independence we mean that self.
reliant spirit which leads one 10 regulate bis
conduct BY the dictates of his own Judgment
that sterling quality which distinguishes the
man from the mere autonaton, Founded on
conscious integrity, and strong, determined
will, it may be regarded one Of the surest evi'
dences of true manliness. Let man be clothed
in the garb Of his own individuality-let him
act always in accordance with an educated sense
of duty-let him hold and feel himself directly
responsible for his acts, and lie must deserve as
well as win, the admiration and respect Of his
fellows. Man, it is true, is social being, and
can find happiness only by communion with his
kind but mentally, each should be for himself
each should think for himseIf-so that the
modified results of action and reaction may be
realized. There is, indeed, in personal indepcn.
dcnce, dignity and loftiness which makes it an
adorning characteristic of manhood and youth
We cannot conceive of grauder spectacle than
that afforded BY him, who, amid danger, and
temptation and scorn, calmly and alone pursucs
the path of duty, rough though it be, and
hedged in by numerous perils.
But if these remarks are applicable to man,
considered as q responsible being, they certainly
apply, with no less force, to him as member OF
the body polite. AS the citizen OF republic
a. freeman--it becomes his duty to divest him.
self Of the control of Disgusting friends or mis-,
chievous enemies. Having the great privilege
OF the elective franchise confded to him, he
should guard with vestal care against its corrup'
ton; and conscious Of the grave responsibility
to be incurred BY its abuse, he should 70 the
ballot box, not like the galley of party, but
like freeman, glorying in his individuality.

THE BLOOM OF AoE.-A good woman I

THE BLOOM OF AoE.-A good woman never
grows old. Years may pass over her head, but
# benevolence and virtue dwell in her heart,
she is cheerful as when the spring Of life first
opened to her view. When we look upon a
good woman we never thing Of her age she looks
as charming as when the rose of youth first bloom
cd on her cheek That rose has not faded yet;
it will never fade. In her neighhorhood she is
the friend and benetactor. Who does not res
pect and love the woman who has passed her
DAYS in acts Of kindness and mercyl We re-
peat, such a woman cannot grow old. She
will always oc fresh and buoyant in spirits and
active in humble deeds of mercy and benevolence
If the young lady desires to retain the bloom
and beauty Of youth let her not yield to the
sway Of fashion and folly let her love truth and
virtue and to the close Of life she will retain
those feelings which now make life appear q
garden of sweets ever fresh and ever new.
