IN PASSING.
Without courage there cannot be truth, and without truth there can bo no other virtue. —Sir Walter Scott. To secure a contented spirit, measure your desires by your fortune, and not your fortune by your desires.—Jeremy Taylor. In those vernal seasons of the year when tho air is soft and pleasant, it were an injury and sullenness against Nature not to go- out to see her riches, and partake of her rejoicings with heaven and earth. —Milton. However strong a man's resolution may be, it costs him something to carry it out, now and then. Wo may determine not to gather any cherries, and keep our hands steadily in our pockets; but wo can't prevent our mouths from watering.— Georgo Eliot. There is as much difference between tho counsel that a friend giveth and that a man giveth himself as there is between the counsel of, a friend and of a flatterer; for there is no such flatterer as a man's self, and there is no such remedy against flattery of a man's self as tho liberty of a friend. —Bacon.
