Bangor Whig relates a little incideotrbr
rather a tenet of incidents, which has a
moral to it. Oot of the mechanics io that
city fast had, during tbe late bard times,
event handsome order for articles of bi
monuf-cture, for shipreot to tbo West In
dies. They csme from a capitalist in a
neighboring town, and while tbe artjzan
found sucb orders especially pleasant and
convenient, at a lire when hit neighbors
aero lying upon tbeir oars, ha could dot
exactly account for the preference xiven him.
Recently, however, the secret baa com
out. Tbo gentleman lo whom the mechao
ic hat been indebted for kit extra business,
was in Ibe habit of noticing our friend while
an apprentice, n bile the boy waa not ten
libit that any body waa taking particular
oot ice of bim, tbii man waa observing his
good conduct ind industry. . Without toy
cquaintioct between them, tht capitalist
was resolving ihst sucb an apprentice would
make to industrious aod careful man and
when tbt boy psssed hi minority, and com
menced business for himself, ho reaped tht
sdvtnlage ibove ststed, fiom the care of ihe
interests of hi old employer, ind from bi
own good conduct. Wt may remark lhat
thia is by no means a rare instance of effect
