SOME OF NELSON'S SAYINGS.
I will be a hero, and, confiding in Providence, I will brave every danger. I got my rank by a shot killing a post captain, and J sincerely hope 1 shall, when I go; go out of the world the same nay. Recollect that a brave man dies but once: a coward all his life long. A little farm and my good name form all my wants and wishes. One of my greatest boasts is that no man can ever say I told a lie. Time is everything. Fifteen minutes make the difference between a victory and a defeat. Without friendship this life is but misery, and it is so difficult to find a true friend that the search is almost needless; but, if ever you do, it ought to l>e cherished as an exotic plant.
