LET THE UNPREJUDTCED READ
How they talked four weeks ago.!

The Bedford Inquirer, of April 9TH, copied
the annexed article into its second edltoria col
umn, without comment, or explanation, thus
adopting it as its own sentiments. Four weeks
ago this precious stickler for The Union, in-
structed his readers that the return of the sece-
ded states was not desired, and that, 'sTo such
a Union the Providence of God has said, Two
nations are IN thy womb, and two manner of
people saalI be separated from thy bowels !"
Then, the cry was, "Let the seeding States
go. "And il the dwelIers on the Atlantic
slope of North Carolina and Virginia choose
that destiny, let them too 60" But now how

Good Manners.

| We know young man, slow, sullen, heavy
| proved and uugraclouS, who, whenever you
speak to him, answers as if it were an effort
to be even decently civil and who, moreover,
seems to be quite content, and even proud, of bis
inciyility. And we lean to the charitable side
so far as to think this is nothing more than IL
bad habit of his, which has insensby fastened
upon him aud that be goes through the
world-a world of mutual dependence-little
aware OF the fact that SO small thing as his
manners is constantly producing impressions,
and fast forming reputation, such as ten
years hence be may regret as the greatest blum
der of his life.
Would it not be well for every young man
to remember the truthful anecdote of the rich
Quaker banker, when asked the secret of his
success in life, answered "Civility, friend
civiIty !" How much does it cost man
either old or young, to be truly civil in the in
tercourse of society Rather, how much does
it cost a young man to form his habits, which,
if formed, will sit upon him easily, gracefully
and proftably, so long as he lives? Far more
often depends on this little, than any other
single adventtious circumstance by which men
rise and fall We may look around US, at any
time, and see men high in place and power.

of individual character or great knowledge, but
simply from the fact that the trifng graces
of life have not been despised 1t is not a
dancing masters grace that is now referred to,
but that the benevolence of manner that re-
cognizes in little things the rights of others,
and fully acknowledges such rights. The
thousand ways in which this little courtesy
does good, need hardly be mentioned. 1t may
be said, however, that courteous manner has
q reflective influence on the benevolent feelings
L is source of qualification to the man who
practices it. If it sits naturally upon a man,
it is a passport to any place and any circle 1t
has smoothed many rough path for men first
starting in business, and has been one of the
things that has often crowned efforts with sue
cess The man of experience, looking on an uu-
gracious manner in young person just start
ing into the world with nothing he can depend
on hut hmself.is not angered, but rather PAIN
ed, by what be sees knowing, as be does, that
the want Of that little something to please as
