quadruped with four legs two behind

TIic Cartoon cf Life.
Life is a Cartoon. Raphael never
painted one half so grand and imi tabic.
Observe it when the day beciu3 to
dawncn a multitudinous city -when
the rosy light begins to hover from the
east rising from the canvass, at first,
ere the night's slumber drop3 from the
millioned lid, faint and shadowy. The
seful purposes resolves, are the open
sky, clear, serene and fall cf promise.
As -e deepens, the
?"cat Lesrt 211:1 souI riie

s and ciu'.ain-
atcs. ihat wuich 13 happily fulmled,
is sunshine ; the rest is cloud and storm.
At mid-day, scarce a quarter cf the
heavens is unobs cured. The day pass
es, and darkness settles on the retreat
ing multitude some exulting over sac
cess, some more determined from de
feat, some sad, some desnaring, and
some smitten dead in the egonv of the
strife. To-morrow, and the picture,
with slight variations, 13 renewed
millionaires and beggars, angels and
fiends, true men and knaves, with non
descripts to blend the shades and
thus forever glows the canvas 3 with
the cartoon of a great citv"s life.

I can conceive of no reason why hs
should, but many why h? should net.
1. It is mean. A man of high mor
al standing would almost 35 lief uttal
sheep as swear.
2. It is vulgar;, altogether too loir
for a decent man.
C It h cowardly ; implying a fear
cither of not being believed; cr obeyed.
4. It is nr.gcntlemarJy. A gentle
man, according to Webster, is well
i bred, refined. Such a one will na
more sr;eir than go into the streets
and thror mud with a clod-keppcr.
5. It i indecent; offensive to deli
cacy, and extremely unfit fur human
ears.
C. It is foolish. uWant cf decency
is want cf sense." Pte.
7. It is abusive to the mind which
conceives the oath, to the torgue
which utters it, and to the pcrsot to
whom it is aimed.
8. It is venomous ; showing a nan's
heart to be a nest of vipers ; and CTcry
time ho swears, ens of thexu sticks out
cf his head.
0. It is contemptible forfeiting the
respect cf all the wise and good.
10. It is wicked; violating the Di
via
urc

vine law, and provoking the disp-as-
ure 01 mm wno win not hold him milt-
