FRIENDLY COUNSEL
VIRTUE. ’Tis not meat and drinks, And balmy airs, and vernal suns, and showers, That 'feed and ripen minds; ’tis toil and danger, And wrestling with the stubborn grip of fatOj And war, and sharp disaster, and paths obscure And dubious. The bold swimmer joys not so I'o feel tiie proud waves under him, and beat With strong repelling arm the billowy surge, / As virtue to opposo her swelling breast Like a firm shield against the darts of fate. w ****** 1 I believe that an act of courtesy has not seldom bad results far beyond that which we should have thought possible, and tbo lack of it lias done irreparable mischief to many a sou! very precious in the sight of God. G. EVERARD. ******* Fashion is, for the most part, nothing but the" ostentation of riches. LOCKE.
