I Mir regrets ure useless, our repiniugs futile. Tho solo iileu shouhl be the chances we possess of remedying the ills we already have, or combating tho effects likely to result. Hide it as he may, put on as good an exterior as he can, still is tho victim conscious that ho is a living lie, and that sooner or later his vices will discovor him to the world.
