ON EXPENSE.
Rxnes are for spending, and
spending for honor and good ac
tions ; therefore extraordinary ex
piT.se must be limited by the’
worth of the occasion Ordinary
expense ought to be limited by
r. man's estate, and governed with
such a regard as to be within his
compass. It a man will but keep
an even hand, his ordinary ex
pense ought to amount to no more
than half of his receipts; and if
he expects to grow rich, only to
a third part! It is highly prt per
fox* the greatest to descend and
look into their own estate. Some
dread u, not through negligence,
but for fear of bringing them
selves into melancholy-—but
wounds cannot be cured without
searching.
He that cannot look on his own
estate at all, ought to choose
those whom he employeih, and
change them often- and he that
can look into his estate quite sel
dom, it behoveth him to turn all
to certainties. A man who i>
extravagant in one expense, ©ugh *
to be saving in another. If he j
is plentiful in his diet, to besav
ing in his apparel, &c. for he that
is plentiful in expense pf all kinds,
will hardly be preserved from de
cay* In clearing of a man's
estate he may hurt himself in be
ing too sudden, as in letting run
on too long ;for hasty selling is com
monly as disadvantageous as inter
est. He that cleareth his estate
bv degrees, creates a habit of fru-!
gality, and gaineth as well upon
his mind, as upon his estate.
G.
PARENTS & CHILDREN.
The joys of parents are secret,
and so are their griefs and Lars;
they cannot utter the one, nor
they will not utter the other. Chil
dren sweeten labors, but they
make misfortunes more bitter—
they increase the cares of life, but
they mitigate the remembrance
j of death.
The difference in affection of
‘parents towards their several chil-
I dren is many times unequal, and
sometimes unworthy, especially
in the mother. A man shall see,
where there is a house full of
children, one or two of the eldest
respected and the youngest made
wantons; but in the midst some
that as it were forgotten, who ma-1
ny times, nevertheless, prove the ;
best. j
The illiberality of parents in*
allowance towards their children,!
is an error; it makes them base,!
and makes them keep with mean !
j company* A parent does best,
when he keeps good authority o
Iver them, but not his purse.
Some have a foolish manner of
creating and breeding an emula
tion between children, which cre
ates discord, when they arrive to
manhood, and disrurbeth fami
lies. G.
A SECoSx) SAMPSON.
Williams, the famous English
! deserter, who tor years found re
fuge with their Sieur Barba-zan
in the Isle of jourdon, has, ac
! cording to accounts from Alton,
at length been arrested. The i
prodigious strength and violent
character of this man, has ren
dered him the terror of all the
peasants and servants in the Can
ton. Mr. Barbazan was the on
ly person who could control him.
His terrible strength v/as particu
larly displayed when he was intox
icated. Nothing could resist his
efforts.—He then twisted bars of
iron as if they were frail twigs;
wi'h a blow of his fist he broke
through partitions; and with no
other help than his fingers, tore
out the largest nails. In one of
his fits he one day took up a ser
vant by the middle of the body,
ran with him to the distance of
50 paces, and threw him over a
, wall 20 feet high, on the other
! side of which a small river flowed,
i Happily some trees broke the fall
of the new Licus, who got off with
no other harm than a good fright.
jThe prefect has, on the applica
tion of the mayor, ordered him to
be conducted from brigade to
