) Oil surety. Ought ft man ever go surety for an other? Wbyuot? It is a most friendly »cU If prudently done, it m»J be <* most eminent benefit to your neighbor. It gives him the benefit of yonr repute U‘ou when he is not known. It lends him your credit, where his is not suf ficient. It pots him in funds, which otherwise he could not command. Bock service to a friend is generous and some times even noble. No better use can be of one’s money than to help a true friend. We are commanded to “re member those in bonds as bound with them.’’ To be sure, this was originally applied to bonds of a different kind, but with not a whit more propriety than to peeuniary bond*. A roan who, bj a few thousand dollars, can save his friend, his family, from bankmpey and want, could hardly spend bis money in s manner which, all his life long, be would remember with more satUfac- MlbCELL A N EOU S.

But, there are certain moral and prudential considerations which should always be borne in mind in going snr etj for a friend. You slnuld alwats ^ske up your minds l.ow much you a e willing to give aw*v, a soluiely, lor that friend whom you indorse. F<»r to blunder can Is* worse than to indorse on the supposition that you will not have to pay. Never indoise without saving to yourself. ‘This may «ome round on mi*. I rosy have to pay it ; and, if it does come to that, I am aide and witling.* Nmt* out of t**n of the fa. la! mistakes made by bondsmen arise form taking the opposite course to this They consider the act of in orsing a friend’s paper as a mere commercial from. ‘There is no risk 1 shall not have it to pay. He is abundantly ab •• to take oare of bia paper. I shall lie p him without harming mvsetf, and he is a alingv man who will not do that. Thi is the calculation on which a man binds himself to pay a friend’s debts in case the friend cannot pay them liitnse-f. Rut how do these things turn out ? One need not go far to ascertain! Every village has an illustration. The bor rower was more involved than you sup E osed, or, perhaps, than he himself new, and his creditors closed on him, and wound i im up, and were ovei joyed to find su h a good name as yours on bis paper. Or, the sanguine scheme on ah ch be bad wntuied, which seemed sure of success, without possibility ot failure, suddenly, like a loaded wagon, slipped off a wheel and upset in the dirt! Or, just as everything was at the po ut of success, your Iriend sickened and could not look after his affairs, some critical matter was neglected, or some tiishonesl person stepped in the crooked matters ; your frienil died, the estate went into the executors hands for settlement, was badly managed, warped and crooked, and final y turned out insolvent And wbat became * f you ? Why,you were wroth ! In an hour you find you- self confronted with a debt that sweep, away jour house, your faim, your litile suin' in bank, and leaves you where you began just twenty-five years ago, wnb this difference ; That then you had only yourself to provide for, and now you nave a wife and eight children. Then .you -were twenty five years old, and life all before you, and now you are fit ty years old and lite pretty much all behind you ! Y-rn have given away yom -children's bread. Yon have not saved jour friend, but have ruined yonrselt ! Perhaps your iriend has settled on bis wife a small piooerty. So much the better for her, if he had. Of course she will divide with you, since it was to save her husband that yon were ruin ed. But, if she will not (and human nature is made up of shaky stuff), and her children go to school while youis stay at home ; amt if they live in a com fortable house, pleasnty furnisb«d. while you ar« hiring a few rooms iu the cheap est quarter of the town, then I suspect that you will chew the cud of a great inanv bitter r*flections. When it i« too Isle you will be very wise. You will say to yourself, it may be, A man is a fool who signs for any larger sum than he can conveniently nay. Amen, sav I. B-fore a man puts his nam« down on -Mother's paper, he should ask himself. * Am I willing to give this person as much roo-ev as l sign for?
