A STRIKING PARALLEL.

Lord Bacon is good old Standby
when any Que wishes TO get an example
of logic and comment on human per
versities and apply that old philoso'
pber IS language to current conditions
or to contemporary persons. Thus we
find in an Eastern paper comment
which Lord Bacon wrote upon boldness
in civil business and public affairs,
which runs thus: Wonderful like is
the case of boldness in civil business.
What frst9 Boldness. What second
and thirdl Boldness. And yet bold
ness is a child of ignorance and base
ness far inferior to other parts. But,
nevertheless, il does fascinate and bind
hand and foot those that are either
shallow in Judgment or weak in cour"
age, which are the greatest part, yea,
and prevalent with wise men at weak
times: therefore we see Ut hath done
wonders in popular States, but with
Senates and princes less-and more,
even upon the first entrance of bold
persons into action than soon after, for
boldness is an i'll keeper of promise. -
1t is not necessary to specify to
whom the paper which quoted that ap-
piled the comment. Everybody knows
him, ev"-vbody realizes instinctively
the person upon whom such a compari.
son as that would most evidently and
perfectly rest. OF hundred guesses,
every one would be the same.

that everything proceeds in that body
with the utmost deliberation and de-

nominations are made, any hot-hesds
consider it their privilege or duty 90
