THE HEROIsm or HONESTY.

IL seems easy Co utter the first words the
heart sends 10 the lips, or walk in the straight
path, according 10 ones convictions Of right.
At the first glance this appears within the
abilities Of child. But this is honesty, and
the great master OF human nature never wrote
more truly than when he said, that "tO be
honest as this world goes Is 10 be one man
picked out OF ten thousand" How few Of the
hundreds with whom we are acquainted can
claim this Distinction Think over your in
tercourse with your most intimate friends, or
review your knowledge of all classes of society,
sad you will be compelled TO admit that
thorough honesty Is the rarest Of virtues. The
fact IL, that 10 he entirely honest, far from
being easy, is the most difficult task OF life /;
and the man who exhibits, throughout his
career and under all circumstances, pure
devotion 10 right, in word and deed, merits
the laurel of hero.
Let us suppose that a young man commences
life with determination 10 be honest at all
hazards and at any sacrifice. He viii speak
and act in perfect harmony with his convic-
tions of right, and leave the consequences to
God. Such resolutions are natural to mex
per1enced youth. upon the hrst entrance into
the social circle comes a trial which proves
fatal to nine out of ten. The youth is coma
PEELED TO choose between what is sincere and
what is agreeable, but false. Without intrud-
Ing his opinions OF sentiments at an unreason'
aoie time, dares he answer, directly and truth
Mhy'a question addressed to him, when hC
knows his sincerity will offend the questionel
or the companys He must, If he be honest
and IL he is hrmer than the majority who ar,
subjected to this test, the probabilities are tha
he win be voted "boor," and outlawed from
the society he desires to cultivate.
Here is sacrifice which few have the cour
age 10 undergo The young man yearns 70
the comforts and luxuries Of wealth, and de
votes himself to the drudgery Of trade, or
toilsome profession. While engaged in h
wearing and il-paid labor, an unscruPuloU
friend, fertile in schemes Of speculation
