WORDS OF WISDOM.

Human nature is 80 constituted that
all see and Judge better in the affairs OF
other men than in their Own.-IeT.
eace.
The seat Of knowledge is in the head;
of wisdom, in the heart We are suro
to Judge wrong if we do not feel right
-Hazlstt. :.
Reason is the glory of human nature.
and one of the chief eminences where
by we are raised above the beasts In this
lower world-l. Watts.
The means that Heaven yields must be en-
braced,
And not neglected; else if Heaven would,
And we will not, Heavens offer we refuse. [,
Shakespeare.
Let wickedness escape as it may at
the bar, it never fails of doing justice
upon itself; for every guilty person is
his own hangman. Seneca.
Be not too ready to condemn
The wrong thy brother may have done;
Ere ye too harshly censure them
For human faults, ask, "Have none?"
Eitza Cook.
If man empties his purse into his
head, no man can take it away from,
him. An investment in knowledge al
ways pays the best interest. - FRANKLIN.
Reason is progressive, instinct sta
tionary. Five thousand years have add
ed no improvement to the hive OF the
bee, nor to the house of the beaver

Is not born with him; there is always work.
And tools to work wlthal, for those who will;
And blessed are the horny hands of toll.
j. r. Lowe1.
There are some minds, like the con-
Vex or concave mirrors, which repre-
sent objects such as they receive them.
but they never receive them as they are.
-Jou5ert.
Gwould not waste my Spring of youth
In idle >dalliance; would plant rich seeds
To blossom in my manhood, and bear fruit
When am old.
John a Halhouss.
To be always intending to live new
life but never to find time to set about !
it-this is as if man should put off eat
ing and drinking and sleeping from one
day and night to another, till he is
starved and destroyed.-IsU
Self-ease is pain, thy only rest
Is labor for a worthy end.
A toll that gains with what it yields,
And scat.ers to its own increase,
And hears, while sowing outward fields,
The harvest song of inward peace.
Whittier.
We may not urge that our age is not
heroic. and therefore we cannot be so;
for it is the heroic part to strive against
an unheroic age. 1t is OURS to see that
we make it one whit fairer; not to re-
proach OF accuse it, with hands idly
folded. g" = The phraseology which
the old Calvinists delighted in, of the
s.ealling and election to be made sure"
means this, if it means anything good
or true; for we are called to form the
new heavens and earth, toward which
the creation groans and strains.-ElIG
r. lfosbys ''ldeal Life
All civil mankind have agreed in
leaving one day for contemplation
against six for practice. | hope that
day will keep its honor and its use. A
wise man advises that we should see to
it that we read and speak two or three
reasonable words every day, amid the
crowd of affairs and the noise of triAes.
1 should say boldly that we should as
tonish every day by beam out of
eternity; retire a moment to the grand
secret we carry in our bosom OF inspi-
ration from heaven. But certainly on
this seventh let US be the children of
liberty, of reason, of hope; refresh the
sentiments; think as spirits think who
belong to the universe, whilst our feet
walk in the streets of little town, and
our hands work in small knot of affairs.
We shall find one result, am sure-a
certain originality and a certain haugh-
ty liberty preceding out of their
resentment and self-comnlunion, which
streets can never give, infinitely remove
ed from all vaporing and bravado, and
which yet is more than match for any
physical resistance. Emerson.
