PITH AND PoINr.

A beast in pain seeks solitude.
Man alone makes parade OF his mis-
cry.
A man doesn't know what he can't
do till ne tries and fails. -Martha's
Vineyard Herald.
A letter shows the man it is writ
ten to, as well as the man it is written
by.-Advance.
Truths diffcr Sometimes they are
told to mans face, and sometimes
behind his back.
There are men who are really
wise. To be wise in ones own conceit
is to be otherwise. Boston Courier
Certain triiing flaws sit as dis
gracefully on character of elegance
as a ragged button on a court dress. -
Layater.
A New York firm advertises
"horses' hats" 1t doesn't say they
are plug hats. however.-Yonkers
States man.
The vain man idOlizes his own
person, and here he is wrong; but he
can not bear his own company, and
here he is right.
We sometimes spend useful time
in criticising others work that we
would better spend in prosecuting our
own.-Dr. +. Patton.
Under certain conditions the tongue
has to be so much restricted to the
conventional that it can at last utter
nothing but old WORKOUT phrases.
We should love our friends as true
amateurs love pictures; they keep their
eyes perpetually fixed on the fine
points, and do not see the defects. -
Nine. Dufresnoy.
Application and perseverance are
necessary. Some persons are every
thing by turns and nothing long. and
therefore they never succeed in any
thing. -Spurgeon.
Nothing more impairs authority
than too frequent or indiscreet use
of it. If thunder itself was to be con-
tinual it would excite no more terror
than the noise of mill Cotton.
The just shall live by faith"
This is fortunate The just 40 not
easily accumulate money. They think
too much of the welfare OF other peo-
pie to make themselves solid. N. o.
Picayune.
"A good workman apprec ates good
tools, and will not work will out them
if he can get or make them. 1t is the
shiftless workman who hates Ills work,
who does not care whether his tools
are fit or not.
Sir Walter Scott said that guilt,
though it may attain temporal splen-
dor, can never confer real happiness.
The evil consequences of crime long
survive their commission, and, like the
ghosts of the murdered. forever haunt
the steps of the malefactor. The paths
OF virtue, though very seldom those OF
worldly greatness, are always those OF
pleasantness and peace.
Persons who practice deceit and
artitice always deceive themselves more
than they deceive others. They may
feel great complacency in view OF the
success of their doings; but they are in
reality casting mist before their own
eyes. Such persons not only make a
false estimate of their own character,
but they estimate falsely the opinions
and conduct of others. No person is
obliged to tell all he thinks; for both
duty and self-interest forbid him ever
TO make false pretences. NY Ledger.
