neither contradict US with arrogance, insult
us with bad manners, nor love " with pro-

TnE VALUE OF ACCURACY. 1t is the result
of every days experience, that steady atten-
ton to matters of detail lies at the root of
human progress !; and that diligence above
all, is the mother of good luck. Accuracy
is also Of much Importance, and an invariable
mark of good training in a man. Accuracy
in observation, accuracy in speech, accuracy
in the transaction Of affairs. What is done
in business must be well done fer it is bet
t2r to accomplish perfectly small amount
Of work, than to half.tio ten times as much.
A wise man used to say, ''Stay little. that
we may make an end the sooner Too lit.
Tie attention, however, is paid to this highly
important quality Of accuracy. AS man
eminent in practical science lately observed
to us, :" tbs astonishing how few people /
have m + in the course. ofmy experience who
can define fact accurately" Yet, in busi.
ness affairs. II is the manner in which even
small matters are transacted, that often de-
eide men for or against you With, virtue.
