\ NIGoRors ON AuE.-Benton, il.
ms teston Lectures, explaining how it
came that at his advance age tower 70l
blessed with the absence of those in
tirmltlcs which are supposed to belong
to it, said: lie owed it the course Of
his early life. Franklin was nick
named the American Aquatic. because
he drank nothing but water. In that
respect. he had initiated Franklin.
He totally abstained for the first half of
his life, and was temperate the other
hall. He had not only abstaincd from
spirituous liquors, vinous liquors, and
every thing of the kind, but he had
kept himself free from EVERY kind OF
dissipation. He knew no game what
ever; and to this moment could not
tell when looking at party playing
carde, which was the looser and viii, h
was tue winner. He had often sat up
all night, watching the sick, on mil
atary duty, and book-A pooK-hal
often kept him awake; but he had
never spent night of dissipation.
This is good example to our young
men, who desire to CRAFTY both ambi-
ton and health.
