THE BRIDLE.

"Don't go without bridle, boys" was my
grandfalher's favorate Bit of advice.
Do you suppose we arc all teamsIers or
horse jockeys. No such thing.
II he heard one Gu rsng and swearing, or
given 10 much vain and foolish talk, ''that
man has lost his bridle," he would sny.-
Without a bridie, the tongue, though little
member, "boasteih great things" II is Gan
unruly evil full Of poison" Put brdle on,
and il is one oil the best servants the body
and soul have. 81 will keep my mouth with
a bridle," said King David, and we can't do
better than follow his example.
When my grandfather saw man drinking
and carousing, OF a boy spending all his
money for cakes and candy, "poor fellow"
he would say, "he's left off his bridle." The
appetite needs training; lei il loose, and 1t
will run you 10 glnttony, Drunkenness, and
all SORTS of disorders. Be sure and keep a
bride on your appetite; don't let il be mas
ter. And don't neglect 10 have one for your
passions. They go mad il they get unman.
agable, driving you down blind and head
long course 10 ruin. Keep the check-ren
tight; don't let it slip; hold to il steady
f" Never go out without your bridle, boys"
This was the bride my grandfather mean,
the bride Of self.government. Parents Try
10 restrain and check their children, and you
can generally tell by their behavior wha,
ch ildren have such wise and faithful parents.
But parents cannot do everything. And some
children have no parents 10 care for tbem.-
Every boy must have bis own bridle, and
every girl must have hers; they must learn
TO check and govern themselves. Iibecomes
easier every day, if you practice il with a
steady and reso,ue will. II is the foundations
Of excellence. II is the cutting and pruning
which makes the noble and vigorous tree Of
character.

TIE SECRET POLICE OF PARIS.

Three days ago, says a correspondent wri-
ling from Paris, willis, walking in the Ron de
Rivoli with a friend, my attention was called
by the latter gentleman who was walking
leisurely some PAGES before us. "Do you
know who he is :" was the question put to
me; and 10 my negative reply, off you hove
any curiosity about him." added my friend,
1--WE will join him, and make him talk upon
subject very familiar TO his understanding.
He is no other than M, one of the per-
fecls of police OF the republic Of 1s47, who
held the position for the longest period Of
time, aud best discharged that very difficult
office" OF course, profited by my friends
proposal; we joined NJ, and, the mutual
presentation effected, we iourneyed on, all
three together, up TO the Champs Eiysees,
and on 10 The outer side of the Arc de Tfi-
omphe; after which we re-descended the
Champs Elysees, by the side opposite to that
by which We entered them. Our subject OF
conversation soon became the anxiety OF the
government touching the Emperor's safety
Yes,p remarked our new companion, j

phrase our inlerlocutor explained in the fol-
lowing terms:
"I: il is Of any interest TO you, | will point
out TO you, as we 60 along, the individuals,
under every imaginable disguise, who, some
few years since, were the soldiers oil my ar
my. They are everywhere, and bytweniies,
thrties, hundreds they are lounging or walk
ing quick, apparently hurried BY business
old and young, rich or poor, SICK or healthy,
listening to you and me as we converse, pry-
ing, spy ing, watching around" And, in
truth, ii was beyond measure curious 10 see
the men M pointed ont 10 US, and with
whom he every now and then exchanged an
imperceptible sign Of recognition.
Out OF those that struck me most, will no.
tice few. One was lame beggarman.

Learn aIi You Can.

Somebody has given the following excel
len. advice, which is worthy of being treas.
ured up by everybody. "Never omit an op.
porunily TO learn all you can. Sir Walter
Scott said even in stage coach he always
found somebody to tell him something be
did not know before. Conversation is gen.
orally more useful than books for the pnrpo-
ses Of knowledge. II is, therefore, a mistake
10 be morose and silent when you are among
persons whom you think are ignorant; for a
little sociabilily on your part will draw them
out, andthey will be able 10 teach you some.
thing, no matter how ordinary their employ.
menl. Indeed, some of the most sagacious
remarks are made by persons of this descrip-
lion, respecting their particular pursuit.
Hugh Miller, The famous Scotch eeologisl,
owes not little to the fame of observations
made when he was jonfneyman stone ma
son, aud worked in a quarry. Socrates well
said that there is but one good which Is
know ledge, and but one evil which is ignor.
ance. Every grain Of sand helps 10 make the
heap. A gold digger takes the smallest mug
gets, and is not fool enough TO throw them
away because he hopes TO find huge lump
some time. So in acquiring knowledge, we
should never despise an opportunity, how.
ever unpromising. If there is a moments
leisure, spend i. over good book, or in
siructive talking with the first person you
meet
