Every man who has inherited or acquired a sufficiency of this worlds goods to live without work, has the right, and should not be censured for do-in it. But every man should have some visible employment something to prevent others from drawing the inference that all is not right with him that Something is rotten in Denmark." There are too many amongst us who are endeavoring to live by their wits. The slow and certain gain of honest labor, is too little a business for them. This is one of the most grievious sins of the age in which we live. This very desire of living without labor and basking in luxury at others expense, has been the cause of more crime and distress, than any thing within the scope of our knowledge.

It generates a spirit of recklessness, which is ruinous to morals, and destructive to the peace and happiness of so ciety. It destroys the hope and fortunes of friends, and brings them often with sorrow to the grave. From this cause our prisons are filled with victims, and our courts with expensive suits. The time has been when our fathers thought it honorable to work, and looked with a suspicious eye upon every one who did not. What a glorious day that will be which revives those feelings.

When parents will teach their children that it is no disgrace, but a high and noble business to support themselves by their own industry. When they are taught never to think of increasing their wealth, but by honest means that economy, and a proper application of time and labor, will ensure success in every kind of business. May is speedily arrive.

No secrets should exist in a republic. Never give up your opinion, even if wrong; it shows that you have independence. Whenever you attack your neighbor's character, do it behind his back so ns not to wound his feelings. Make it a rule to keep company wiih ras cals and rogues, and then if you should be prosecuted for an offence, and your comrades should be called as witnesses against you, nobody will believe them, and you will get clear. Never forgive an injury.
