POLITENESs.

One of the English in6dels was so
struck with the politeness and good
feeling manifested in St. Paul's writings,
that he affirmed if st. Paul hse said he
hlmself had ever performed miracle,
he would believe il, because he was too
much Of gentlemen to tell an untruth.
Whatever we may think of this remark,
we canno. but 5e struck with the power
which politeness has over the inhdel.-
And as this infdel is not sn exception,
it may be we'll 10 show some few of the
Advantages of tting poli'e.
/. We conform to the Scripture. If
st. Paul taught politcness 10y his exam
pie 80 did he in his writings. He tells
us ain honor we must prefer one ano
ther" Here is the great secret of po-
iteness, viz, forgetfuncss of self. In
another place he says, "Be courteous
in other words, be polite.
2. We make friends. Nothing so
wins upon strangers as true polIteness.
A little attention, shown in stage, or
in the cars, or at "A public table, costs
us very little But what an effect has
it upon the persons to whom the atten
tion is shown. The pleased look, the
gra,ied smile, show Us that we have
gained a friend.
3. We increase our usefulness. One
season why ministers and good Christ.
ian people have no more influence, is on
account of their sour face and forbid
ding countenancas. They look rs if
they said--keep away from me. But
if they allow the vulgar to approach
within reach of their majestic presence,
there is a pompous manner or nay they
have, which prevents the hearts of 9th
ers going out to them, AMI thus the IN
fluence over such people is lost.
A. 1t gives success. Let any man
who has goods to sell, or office to at
tain, be kind and polite, no sham like
that put on 10y tho politicians, and his
goods are sold and his office reached
ten times sooner than the man who
looks mad when he cuts of his calicoes
and cloths
Politeness, of all things earthly, costs
tho least, but its power, it is not saying
too much, is tremendous. As Sidney
Smith said of Daniel Wehster-he as a
steam engine in trowsers-so we say OF
the really genuine polite man; he, too,
is steam engine; his power in his
particular sphere is wonderful. He,
other things being anything like equal,
will accomplish good in the world.

know how TO handle it, Don't swear,
don't throw dice, don't play kcards,
don't hang about ,averne, but you may
chew tobacco some, cause your dad

you just bring out them hard finished
