SMILES AND TEAns.--Smiles are the SYM
bos of joys tears, Of sorrow. Without the
former we would not feel the inspiration of
gladness animating the heart of our friends:
without the latter, we might not know when
to sympathizo in their griefs. Smiles are
like the suubeams; tears like the sweet rain
gushing from pure fountain. Take away
the former, and the soul is left toarown
take away the latter, and it is left to burn.
Let the soul have both and they mutually
consp;re TO enliven and subdue it,--give it
golden mien'' to produce beauty, freshness
and vigor. Smiles are like glances from
heaven; tears like dew-drops from the Jor-
dan of death. Smiles tell US Of angels
tears of Gods love. e2t

As a further inducement to the acquisition
of modesty, let me assure you that it recon-
mends every talent that YOU would wish to
possess. 1t heightens al! the virtues that it
accorpn;es like the shades in painting, it
raises and rounds every figure, and makes
the co.ots more beautiful, though not SO glar
ing as they would be without It.
MCdesty is not only an ornament, but al
SO q guard to virtue. 1t is kind Of quick
and delicate feeling in the SOUL which makes
her shrink and withdraw herself from every
thing in which there is danger. Nothing
can tend more to damp this amiable sensi-
bilitv, than that kind of conduct which seems
indirectly TO recommend a total disregard to
it, as the perfection Of breeding which keeps
man in countenance, not because he is in
nocent, but because be is shameless.

Angling for praise is SO prevailing a prin-
ciple that it frequently stoops to the lowest
objects. Men will often boast of doing that,
which, if true, would be rather disgrace to
them than otherwise. One man ailirms that
he rode twenty miles within the hour; it is
probably a lie but, suppose he did, what
theu' lie had good horse under him,
and is good jocky. Another swears he has
often, at a sitting, drank five or six bottles to
his own share. Out of respect to him, I
will believe him a liar, for l would not wish
to think him a beast.

A wellbred man keeps himself within the

a man of sense, under a consciousness of
