avoid both these extremes, as a Hive vioiaiion of that good taste and that self-respect which they should ever cultivate. Slovenliness in apparel, is exceedingly unbecoming to all, but highly so to youth. Jt plainly evinces a lack of energy, of spirit, of taste, and of a proper pride of appearing decently. There is nothing that mere plainly indicates slolhfulness and a want of bodily and mental vigor, than carelessness in respect to apparel. A young man of this appearance wiil be viewed as one of little worth or promise. Thete is, however, a wide distinction between appearing in a slovenly manner, and appearing in garments of a coarse texture, or thaf have'injured by use. A man may be arrayed in clothes of the finest qnality,and of the most costly value, and vet from the careless manner in which

appearance- It is not to be supposed that people of di'Jerent occupations can dress in the same manner, or appear with the same ncatnes. Some employments are of that nature that the garment'', despite the uttermost care, soon become soiled: but even in such occupations, you can easily distinguish between the slovenlv and the tid v. There is no employment m which there can not be a certain degreeof taste and carcdisplayed in the dress. I would not have the mechanic or the farmer, engage in his business, starched andruflled this would be out of taste and propriety; but each, of every calling, should have garments corresponding to thc peculiarities cf their employment. And it would be an equal destitution of propriety, to appear in company, or in the house of worship, with clothes soiled and defaced by ordinary occupations, if you can consistently part w ith the means to procure those that aie more suitable. Allow a sense of propriety to dictate in regard to these things, and you will hardly fail cf acting properly. Equally to be avoided is the other extreme offctppery. This is a passion,an i.iordinate love for dress. The head of the fop seems (o be filled with little else than fashions, colors, and figures. But cf all failings, this rage for dress is the most simple and unrnon'y. That little

has glorious faculties to exercise.

more strikingly indicate a want of that wisdom by which such a being should be distinguished, than to have his faculties aborbed and his ambition satisfied, with the transient varieties of external .attire? Besides, how contemptible is the distinction which is merely superficial. The bee that gathers treasure from every flower, has net the finest coating. The eagle that soars on majestic wings, to the birth cf the morning, has not the most golden plumage. It is the butterfly, that daily flutters on the passing biecze, winch the fopiing emulates. Thc care c-f the body is more with him, than the care of the mind. With usefulness and virtue, with knowledge and rea-

on. to engage him, beheld him the slave of a

ory in that

which inferior minds may often vie with him,

and flowers and plants excel him. Such n young man, whom dress alone occupies and delights, will be claimed by folly as her legitimate child. Wisdom rejects him. Intelligence sighs over him, as a young man void of understanding." The more gaily and fashionable I am dressed, says the young man, the more readily am I smiled upon by the ladies. This remark as a general rule, is unfounded, although it may be true in some instances. But of what vaiue can that young lady be, or of what worth her esteem, who judges cf the character of

her company solely by their dress? Suppose you could obtain sue h a young lady for a companion, would she be a prize worth the seeking? I am confident that the trreat ma

jority of the young ladies, prefer plainness

and neatness in the dress of their male associates, to the extremes of the frivolous fop. Says a modern writer, '-take this as a secret worth half a fortune to you, that women, however vain they may be themselves, despilcvanity in men Let neatness and economy be your study in dress. You should not be so far behind the fashion as to be odd, nor one ofthoe who are the most forward in seeking mid adopting its changes; but should conform to the general style cf those of cur age and rank, in
