The OLD Observation-Disclosures had
habit of playing bis symphonies on an old
harpsicbord as test. They would thus be
made to stand out in their true character, with
nothing to hide their faults, or exaggerate
their beauties. If then they commended
themselves to his ear, they were good, and
might safely be sent forth to the world. -.t
Thus wisely may we test our character, en-:
deavoring to ascertain how it manifests itself,
not on great and rare occasions, or before the
public eye, where there is a chance for display
and applause, but in private, in the little,
homely, every day duties, which attract no
particular attention and reward us with no
praise. ..-s.aH ri ...-..
If, in the retired nook of your own breast,
in the regulation of your thoughts and feel
ings; if, in the bosom of your family, in the
monotonous round of home life each day, you
preserve sweet, serene temper, and go for
ward cheerily, taking resl pleasure in duty
as duty, and in all these matters honestly
strive to serve and please the heavenly Mas
ter; if, in word, your piety sounds well on
such an unpretending harp, and there, it is
good, genuine, tested; it will one day win &C
clamation from vaster and nob!er throng
than ever was thrilled by the genius Of Bee
thoven.-American Messenger. ...
