Virtue Is q Blessing.
BCsll's Mills. Nav

.7....- DCsl MILLS, May Ii.
Virtue is the most excellent dignity
and the only good Of rational beings.
Genius, learning, power, riches, and
whatever else man enjoys, arc only good
when made subscrvicnt to virtue. Hence
tho ancient stoics called such things con-
vcnicnces-rot good things-"bccausc," I"
said they, "virtue alone deserves the
name Of good." This is our glory. our
riches aud our happiness in time aud etcr.
nifty. To acquire and continually i'm
prove in ourselves this inestimable trea.
sure, is thergreut business Of our lives.
Yet thow careless arc the generality Of
mankind in this particular Nany spare
no pains to cultivate their minds in sci.
cnce. or to excel in accomplishments Of
the body, while half the attention which
is given to their body or studies, would
make them perfect in virtue. Virtue no
sooner gains tho, empire in the hearts Of
men than i: rules aud sauctifes the whole
circle Of their actions. To he able to
stand our ground in the time Of trial and
to exercise the necessary acts Of virtue in
the hour Of death, we mnst Lc thorough.
J.

virtues, oriwe shall not otherwise exert

ours a matter for its exercisc-suljccts

lnto occasions for exerling the most no.
bic aud heroic virtues: resignation, pa
tience. charity anil good will towards
those who oppose or persecute him. The
extraordinary ausieri.ies and solitude Of
the Saints are not suitable to persons en-
gagged it, the world. They are even in.
consistent with their obligations. But
all are capable Of disensasing their uf-
fectious from inor'linute passions and at.
tachments TO creatures, aud Of attaining
TO pure and holy love Of God, which
may be nude the principle ofour thoughts
aud ordinary actions, und sauctify our
whole lives. Of this all who have q
heurt are, through the divine grace, CO.
pable. ln whatever circumstances we
are placed, We have opportunities Of sub
DUNG our passions aud subjecting our
senses by frequent denials-of watching
over oui hearts by self-examination- n-of
purifying our affections by assidious rec.
objection and prayer, and Of uniting our
souls toGod by by continual interior and
exterior acts ofboly love. Thus m ~ oil
