FITNESS For OFFICE

In choosing men for public Offices
the people should have regard more
to good morals than to great abilities;
Tor Providence never intended to make
tho management Of public affairs a
mystery to be comprohended only by
aiew persons of sublime genius, of
which there seldom are a dozen born
in an age: But truth, justice, temper.
ance, and the like, are in every mans
power; the practice Of which virtues.
assisted by experience and good in.
tentidn' would qualify any man forthe
service Of his country, except where
course OF study is required. The want
OF moral virtues is so far from being
supplied by superior endowments OF
the mind, that employmeuts can never
be put into such dangerous hands as
those OF persons so qualified; at least,
the mistakes committed by ignorance,
in virtuous disposition, would never
be of such fatal consequence to the
public veal as the practices of a man
whose inclnations lead him.to be cor.
rupt, and who has great abilities to
manage, to multiply, and defend his
corrupti0ns.

THE POOR PRINTER.
A TRUE TALE.

1t was a cold evening in the month
of December, that Judge Wright was
sitting by pleasant fire. at the resi-
dence of his brother, in Louisville, Ky.
His little niece was sitting beside him,
with her head resting on his arm, and
her hair falling inringlets over her
snowy shoulders.
"Tell US story of a mechanic, un-
Gle, if you please, for often hear you
speaking of them," spoke the little
girl, looking up innocently into the
face of the Judge.

CHAPTER II.

Carrie Bates loved Edward How.
ard--yea. loved him with all the
strength of her woman's nature. She
viewed him only through the medium
of love, and all appeared bright
'Tis true he had one fault, still her
faith absolved it. But her stern old
father regarded it as fault which
was to him barrier not to be rcmov-
ed. Young Howard loved his glass,
and when the father of the girl he
cherished, reasoned with him on the
folly of his course, he would treat it
lightly, anG in tone of carelessness
pass it by.
Edward" said old Mr.. Bates, "my
child shall never wed man who in
dulges in intoxicating drinks. 1t is
useless to argue the matter, refrain
from your enemy--be a man, and my
daughter shall be yours"
Loving Carrie devotedly, pledged
himself to abstain from rum, and 60
ing to work for old Mr.. Webb had
saved up sufficient to buy a farm
The reports of his conduct were time
after time told to the loving girl, and
the hopeful old man. The time ofhis
probation wanted but day Of closing
when he started from the house Of his
employer. Carries heart was beating
high with joyful anticipations, and
with a woman's trustfulness she
looked for the return of her lover.
The day of his expected return
came, and the bright sun impaired
cheerGuIness b all. but night had been
usbered in and yet he came not. The
second day da awned, but still the lov-
ing girl and the confiding old man
were alone. Tears filed the eyes of
the latter, but with true devotion, the
former still hoped on--but it was al
most hoping against hope. The old
