A great m -.n is affable bib's eonve - sation, geiie-oiN in his temper, and im-i movable in what he has naturally rcsolv d upon. And, as prosperity does not make him haughty Mid imperious, so neither does; adversity sink him into meanness and dejecHon, for. if ever he shows more spirit than ordinary, it is when he is jllused.and the world is frowning upon him. In short, he is equally removed from the extrom-'s of servility and pride, and scorns either to trample on a worm or cringe to an emperor.
