FRIENDLY COUNSEL
BE ACCURATE. For every purpose, whether for action or speculation, 1 hold that quality to be most valuable which it is quite within our own power to acquire, and which nature unassisted never yet gave to any man—l mean a perfectly accurate habit of thought and expression. Such is as far as I can see, on© of the very rarest acquirements. LORD STANLEY. ***** Life has its bliss for these, when past its bloom; As withered roses yield a late pcrifumc: Serene, and safe from passion’s stormy age How calm they glide into the port of age. WILLIAM SHENSTCNE. ***** Courage, like cowardice, is undoubtedly contagious, but some persons are not liable to catch it. GEORGE D. PRENTICE. ******* Praise and wine strengthen, provided they do not intoxicate.
