Never Done Before We have by
far the best Office ever opened in our
city and are daily making additions to
1t. We are now turning out plain and
fancy work in any style desired. We
have just received a splendid stock of
colored inks and paper and are ready to
duplicate any bill printed in Baltimore
or any other city. Such thing was
never done before. But where persons
desire bill duplicated we require the
original bill with copy of the work.
When these are produced we will in no
instance fail to duplicate. This offer is
better than our merchants ought to ask
for not one Of them furnish us with
any article at Baltimore rates.

A YOUNG MANS CHARACTER-No
young man who has a just sense of his
own value will sport with his character.
A watchful regard to his character in
early youth will be conceivable to him
in all the remaining years Of his after
life. When tempted to deviate from strict
propriety OF department, he should ask
himself Can I afford Can / endure
hereafter to look back upon this ?
1t is of amazing worth to young man
to have pure mind for this is the
foundation of pure character. The
mind in order to be kept pure, must be
employed in topics of thought which
are themselves lovely, chastened. and
elevating. That the mind has in its
own power the selection of its themes of
meditation. If you know how frightful
were the moral deprivations which a
cherished habit of loose imagination
produces on the soul-they would shun
them as the bite of n serpent. The
power of books to excite the Imagination
is fearful element OF moral death when
employed in the service of voice.
The cultivation of an amiable, elevat-
ed and loving heart, alive to all the
beauties of nature and all the sub
limities of truth, invigorates the intel
lect, gives to the will independence of
baser passions, and to the affections
that power Of adhesion to whatever is
pure, good and grand, which is adapted
to lead out the whole nature of man
into those scenes of action and impress
sion by which its energies may be most
appropriately employed, and by which
its high destination may be most
effectually reached.
The opportunities for exciting these
faculties in benevolentand self denying
efforts for the welfare of our fellow men
are so many and great, that it is really
worth while to live. The heart which is
truly evangelically benevolent, may lux
uriate in an age like this The promises
