The race is not to the swift nor the battle to the strong, but time and chance liappeneth to them- all.—Solomon.

AH external accessions receive taste- and color from the internal constitution, as clothes , warm us not with t3xeir heat, but our own, which they are adapted t«» nrw«r and keep in. Montaigne.
