enre, upon compulsion, from the deature
and enjoyment of youth, it followed b
an exrettive indulgence when these are
plji'rd withiu our reach, as none are so
prone to gluttony as thoe who have for
a long time been kept on short commons.
The ber-t way to prevent excrat in men
or women, is' to . permit the young to
partake moderately in all ihe innocent
enjoyment of life, becoming the mean
and stations of thi-ir parent, as well a
their own-anticipated prospects. The
extravagance of Ellenor cured thai ol

.The first time Frank interrupted hi

impressive actions, and pretty distinctly
intimating that, having done a he pleased
all hi life before, be should take the same
liberty in future, he received a lesson thai
proved the cm nenre.ment of hi reforma
tion. Before he had half fiuishod whal
he had to sav, the thing was done that he
had signified should not be, or ought not
to be, performed. Ilis astonishment and
indignation struck bim dumb, and though
he recovered his speech afterwards, so as
10 be understood on all ordinary occasions,
he never interrupted Elleitur -afterward,
or ventured a syllable to intimate tline
was such a doctrine at that of free-w ill.
The habits derived from domestic dis
cipline, are observed to have a potent
inlliiein e over our general intercourse
with society. From being courteous and
submissive at home, Frank became docile
and polite abroad. He seldom ventured
an opinion; never contradicted or attempt
ed to 1 imposa hi rcnftmeni on others;
treated Lit drpeadents kindly; and would
listen to aa argument as bnig a a tpeerb
