When 1 see a candi date shaking hands with every vagabond he meets, lounging about tueiiis and gieg shops, and buying lw.lf pints I'm ot opinion, that he does not possess that noble Sc higU minded independence which should characterize a public officer. When I hear a man alk of the enormoug expense atienclant on the education of his childicn, and at the same time clothe them in foreign manufactuies I'm of opinion, that he does not sec three inches beyond his face. When I hear our public officers run down, Sc the measures of government pronounced foolish, by a man who has never read the spelling book thro', and who knows not the difference between a wise and an unwise measure I'm of opinion, that the man so speaking is a bigger fool than he takes himself to be. When I hear a man say he can't take the papers because he has .
not time to read them I'm of opinion, that he lias not his freedom and independence so much at heart as the increase of his worldly store. Astonishing Aceumxi lation.v England a pound of iron costs half a penny ; it is converted into steel, that steel into watch springs, every one of which is sold for half a guinea, and weighs only the tenth of a grain; after deducting for waste, 'here are in a pound weight 7000 grains. It therefore affords steel for 70,000 watch springs, the value of which at half a guinea each, is thirty five thou sand guineas. Eng. paper. Maxims. As no roads are so rough as those that- have just

As that gallant can best affect a pretended passion for one womaf who has no true love for another, so he that has no real esteem for any of the virtues, can b ast assume the appea ranee of them all. If you cannot inspire a woman with love of you, fill her above the brim with loe of herselfall that runs over will be yours. Friendship often ends in love but love in friendship-never.
