There are various incidental motives, o.

The only cure for hopeless affection is to
discard the article for one having rea
sonableq quantity OF hope. Thus, if Sally
Jones rejects your tender suit because she
is i'll love with the knock k ccd barber on

arsenic, and collins. On the contrary, you
must draw OH your Sunday suit, extend
your aldermanic dignity by a dinner OF

Old bachelor Briggs had lived fifteen years

one evening Il worm Glanced to drop from

1t is very definitely settled, that you have
nothing in this world until you actually get

Let no man deceive you in reference to

The eray to Rise IN Lye.-No young
man can hope to rise in society, or act
wortliIy his part in life, without moral
character. The basis of such character is
virtuous, fixed principle; or a deep fixed
sense Of moral obligation, sustained and in.
vigorated by the love and fear 0: God.
The youth who possesses such character
can be trusted. Integrity, truth, benevo.
lcncc, justice arc not with him words with
out meaning; he knows and he feels their
sacred import, and aims in the tenor of lis
life to exemplify the virtues they express.
Such a man has decision Of character he
knows what is right, and is firm in doing
it. Such man has independence Of CHAR
acter; he thinks and acts for himself, and
is not 10 be made a taol of, to serve the
purposes Of party. Such man has true
character; and his life is blessing to
Himself, to his family, to society, to tho
world.
Aim, then, my frieiius, 10 attain this
character; aim at virtue and moral excel
lence. This is first, tho indispensable quail
fications of a good citizen. 1t imparts life,
strength, and beauty, not only to individual
character, but to all the institutions and in
terests in society. It is, indeed, the dew
and rain that noursh tho vine and Zig tree
