sired than great wealth, and also on the
motives which urge US to obtain it. Our
friends regard us who are now forming our
characters with interest and Affection
They are Interested in the paths we are
marking out for ourselves, aud we can in
no way give them greater happiness than
by choosing the right path, and we can in
no manner give them greater sorrow than
by choosing such ways and courses as will
lead to our destruction both for time, and
eternity. We day by day are evidently
growing older. Our grandparents, and
parents soon will have gone, perhaps to a
grave Of peaceful rest, and we shall take
their places we shall ill the va ious Offices
and employmenfs in which they have been
engaged, and the effects of our thoughts
our deeds and our works, will not be con-
fined to our own field Of action, but will
remain through succeeding generations,
through endless ages. In after life the
very nicknames by which we now are cal
led--the peculiarities Of temperament, and
of disposition, all our prominent character
istics will Be known by those with whom
we associate. These then are the moiives
which urge US to form good character
