Frcmthe Roch $teT Gazette, u Soft, soft you nhavf too close ! Mine Uncle Ned, (God rest him.) was when livinjpossessed of such moralising volubility ,that most unimportant subject used to bring forth his exordium ; and he would in the goodness of his soul, run on with a long train of sage remarks and moralizing reflections, too valuable to be lest to the world Thus, returning from the barber's one roorni i remarked, (drawing my hand across my face at the same time,) he shaved me close. He did it manfully! said my Uncle ..'ed. How much superior is his vocation to a thousand barbarians who infest community the former work? before your face while t lie latter, in the capacity of honest dealings, operateon a quarter least expected. The tics of consanguinity, the sacred precincts of religion, the impositions of reputation, are no barriers to the unrelenting hand : and the instruments used in his warfare arc as various as the operators. The Lawyer shaves you with his bill ; the Merchant v-iih his c infer ; the Doctor with his fieitle ; the Carpenter with his handsaw ; and the Ph inter with his hrvar. It is astonishing what point, what keenness is given to these, in themselves edgeless instruments, k by dextrous use ' And I have absolutely seen a man's son) shaved into ribbons with a scale-beam A scalebeam ! ! echoed in astonish nent. V , replied Unc le Ked no : -peci 2s of shaving bears so deep an impress of abomination as that effected by a fa!s s balance. The pick-pocket is a manful speculator in competition with t tis shaver ; it is worse than suicide ; he shaves himself of )vs eternal interestSyanil of thajt weight he ou rht finalU to bear in the balance of immutable Justice And no longer a.;o than last Sunday I saw a man shave himself with a prayer; aye with a pray, er ni whilethe words fell fiom his lips, hypocrisy was making a carnival of his heart ; for the a:ne man went home and shaved his neighbor with a half pint of O ; stop, s op ! said ; but on dashed the old gentleman, recriminating upon people of almost every occupation. But it was only a lway he had' the ideal vision of iiis fanciful brain, and not worth
