FRIENDLY COUNSEL
MANNERS AND MORALS. Manners are (of more, importance than laws. .In a great measure, the laws depend on them. The law touches us but here and there, and now and then. Manners are what vex or soothe, corrupt or purify, exalt or debase, barbarise or refine us, by a constant, steady, uniform, insensible operation, like that of the air we breathe. They give their whole color to our lives. According to their quality, they aid morals, they supply them, or they totally destroy them. EDMUND BUKKE. * * * # * * * He is the best physician who is the most ingenious inspirer of hope. S. T CODEUIDGE. **** * . * * Who are/the blest? They who have kept their sympathies awake, And scatter’d joy. We must act the same by our friends as by virtue, and put neither wantonly to the test.
