It fi of no more use to give advice to the idle than to pcir water into ' a si-re; and os to improve them, one might as well try lo fatten, a grey hound. Yet as the Old 15ook tells us to "cast our bread upon the waters," we will cast a hard crust ci two npoii these stagnant ponds; for there will be this comfort abont K if lazy fellow grow no" better, vre shall be none the worse for having warned them; for! ,ffbn ne soif gooxl sense, the basket Kcanone Vic cmpuef.. e Date a stiff bit of soi to plough when we chide witli sluggards, and the crop will he of the smallest; biit if none but good land were farmed, ploughmen woold be out of work, so we'll put the plough into the furrow.' Idle men are common enough, and p-roT without ... - ; phwtin but tljequanlity of wit among seven acres of them would never ay hr raking : nothing is needed to prove t)i but their name and their charac ter; if they were r.ot fools they would . not be idf.rs ; and though Solomon "ays, "Trx sluggard is wiser in his own conceit than seven men Hint can render a reBson," yet the eves of entrj one ehe his folly a pa'm as the sun in the sky. If I hit hard while speaking to" them, it s becsuse I know they can bear it, for if IbaKl them down on- the floor of! the M barn, I uiiglii thrash many a. day before I could get them out of ' the rw, and evea the stean thrasher 'ould not doit,it wpuld kiH tbm' first; or lazinass is in some people's bones, ind will .show itself in, vheir idle flesh "o what you will Willi the. ell, then, first and jitoretnost, it strikes me that lazy oeople ought to ave a large looking-glass "huug up. "ifcre they are bouud to see them 'elves in it ; fr sure, iftbeir eyes are t al lik-5 mioe, they woukV never bear to look at themselves Ions: or often.- ic ugliest surh.t in the. world is' one of! mose thoroughbred loafers, who would i.

Perhaps." if tn stl(Wer should turft to Sheer, he ' ght wake himself up a bit ; but he UWe up for it afterwards. This BSrfffrrnTj r - " ' i if v- - - - - is the slothful man in the Proverbs, wh& "hideth ni3 fiahd ?r his -tVosora ; i grieveth' him o brfrfg ii ajfafn to Ids mouth." I say that men Hhe' like of this ocght to be' serfeid'HItc t)ldrone& which the fccH Jiivciojut ftli l1'1!5- fivery rnajn ouglit ttfiav fiaiiejiceand pity for poterty ; bit fur laiifiess, a long -vhip? or a ttfrn attlife treadmill might beijbstterr rjuld bt healthy physic for at f "sluggaftiS; tut there is no chance of some oftdein get ting their full dose , of this mcdioihe, for they, were born with silrar spoohs in their moblhs', and, like JpodnsTlucy will scarce stir their "otfih left, dhless somebody lend ihem,, s handj : thej are. as the old proverb says, "its lay at Ludham'a dog, that leinVJ his head against the wall to bark and, like lazy sheep, it is too much trouble for them to carry their own; wool. Il they could see themselves, it might by chance do .them a world of good ; but perhaps it would be teo much' trouble for. them to open their eyes even it the glflps were, hung for them. . Everything in the world is of some use; but it would puzzle -a -docLac-.iif J divinity, or a philos ?phor, or the wisest owl in our sLeeple, to tell the gopd of idleness : that seems to tne to be an ill wind which blows nobody any good a sort of mud winch breeds no eels, a dirty, ditch which wonld not feed a frog. STft a sluggard grain by grain, and you'll Hud, him all ohaff. vl l.ive heaVd men - say, ' better -do ootid ng than do mischief," bu. I am not even ?ure of that : that saying glitters well, rut I dor.'t belie-V3 it's gold : I crudge laziness even that pinch of praise, I saj' it-is iad and bad altogether; for look ypl a man doln mischief is a jparrow picking the con; hut a lazy man is ja sparrow silting on a nest full of epgsf which Will all turn to; sparrows before long, and do a wot Id of hurt. Don't tell .me, I'm sme of it, that the rankest weeds on earth don't grow in the midst of those who' are busy nt wickedness, but in foul corners of idle men's imaginations, where'- tiie devil can hide away unseen like an oh ser pent as he is. I don't like our . boj'S-t be in mischief, but I would ..sooner see them up to their aee! in the mud in their laiks, than sauntering about With nothing to d. If -the evil of doing nothing seems to be less to-day, yon will find ii out to be greater to-morrow ; the dcril is putting' Coals on ihe fire, and so ihe fire does not blaze, bnt depend upbn.it, it will be a bigger fire in 'die ei.d. Idle people, you had need else can find any good in you to praise. I'd sooner see yo-i through a telescope lhan. anything else, for I suppo.su you would then be a long way off; but the bluest pair of spectacles in the parish 'cyuld not see anything in you worth talking about. Moles, and rats, and weasels, there is a iinething' ,o be said for, though there's a pretty sight of them nailed up on our. old barn, but as for you well, j'ou'l! be of use in the grave, and help to make a fat church yard, but do better songcan I sing in youi favor than this verse, as the par ish clerk said, "all of my own : com posing':" A gQ(7tl for not,! i ing hiz-y lotJt, Il'icUvd within and ragged without, Who can hear tliavc liim about? Turn hhn out! Turn .him out! "As vinegar to the teeth, and as smoke to the ecs." so h the slug gard to every man who is spending his sweat to earn an honest living, while tlrese fellows let the grass grow ip to t Heir anklets, and stand cumbering the ground, as the JJible. s-aysv- A man who wastes- his time and his strength i:i sloth offers hiuistlf to be a target for the devil, who is a wonder fully good rifleman, and will riddle the idle with Sis shots; in other words, idle r men tempt the devil to temp them. - He who plays when he should work, has an evil spirit to be his playmate : and he who neither works nor plays is a workshop for Satan. If the devil catch a nun idle, lie will set him to work, find him tools, and before long pay him wages. Is. not this where the drunkendess comes ' from which fills our towns and villages-with mirry ? , Idleness is the key of beggary, and the root of all evil. Fellows have two stomachs for eating and drinking when they have no stomach for work. ; Tint little hole just under the nose-swallows up in idle hours that iuoney which should put clothe on the. children's backs, and bread on the cottage table; We have Godwr(? for it, that "the drunkard and the glutton sbjdi; Come to-poverty and to show the connec tkn betw8enthem, it is said in the sam-e- verse, "and drowsiness shalt clothe a nvan with rags."

"-"'t -f.r My advice to my. boys, has been to get out of the sluggard's way. or - you may Catch his disease: and never get rid of it. I am always afraid of their learning the ways of tbeUdle and am very watchful to nip anything of the sort in the bud ; for you know it is best to kill the lion when it is a cub. Sure enough our children have all our evil nature about them, for you can see it growing of itself like weeds in a gar den. Who can bring a clean thing out of the unclean? A wild goose never lays a tame egg. Our boys will be off to the green with the ' ne'er do-wells unless we make it greener still at Lome for them, and train them to hate the company of the slothful, -Never let them go to "Jlose aud Crown ;" let them learn to earn a crown while they are yourg, aud grow roses in their father s garden at home. Bring them up bees and they wiiPnot be drones. There is much talk about bad mas ters and mistresses nowadays, and 1 dure say there is a good deal in it, for thtrc'sbad of all sorts now as there al-i ,!.,-'- i 1 ways was ; another time, if l am allow ed, I, will have to say about that mat ter; but I am sure there is plenty of room for complaint against sorae among the wo king people too, especially upon this matter of slothfulness. You know we are obliged to plough with such catr tie as we have fdundjor Us J but wlieli I am spt to work with some men, rl'd as soon drive a team, of -nails, or jgo out rabbit " hunting with a dead 'ferret: W by, you m Ight sooner get' blood out. -T g tMet,o jvio otvt of a cork. than to talk work out of some of them, and yet they are always tnlking about their rights ; J wish they would give' an eye to thei own wrongs, and not lean on the plough-handles. .Lazy-lie a beds are not 'working 'men at all, any more than pigs are bullocks, or thistles apple trees. All are not hunters that wear red coats, and all not working men who call themselves so. I won der sometimes that some of our enap ers keep so many cats who catch oy- no mice. I would as soon drop my half pence down a well as pay jsome. people for pretending o work, who only fid get you make your flesh crawl to see them all day creeping overs a cabbage leaf. Live and let live, say I, don't include sluggards in that but J license. for they who will not Work, neither let them eat. Here, perhaps, is the proper place to say that some of the higher classes, as they arefcalled, sat a shamefully bad example in this respect : our great folks are some of' them quite as lazy as they are rich, and often more so ; the big dormice , sleeps , as long. nd .as sound as the little Vries.4 Many a par-; son burs or hires a sermon, so that he may save himselfttbq trouble of .think ing: Is not this abo'minal laziness They sneer at the Ranters but there is not a Ranter iiv 1 the V kingdom but what be ashamed of himself to stand up aud read somebody elaes sermon as if it were bis own, Many of our squires have nothing to do'bnt' to 'pa'rt theirr hair in the middle ; and many of the London graiuees ladies and gen tlemen both alike, as I . am -told, have no Letter worli than killing time. Now thQf saf the higher a' monkey ' Umb, the more his tal it seen; aud so the greater these people are and the more their idleness- is noticed, and the more they ought to be ashamed of it, I don't say they ought jto plough, but I do say that they 003k to tio something for the state, besides being like-" the 'caterpil lars on tbecubbage, eating up gooc things ; or like the butterflies, showing themselves off,t)ut ..nsilfiingr r.xr honey. rr cannot be angry wltlr these ' people somehow", for I pity iheuV when I thirk of the stupid rules of - fasliion which 1 K rcfed to mind, and' the vnniJy 1 rn wfcrcly Shy weary jout their days: I'd sooner balf be"nd my back double with hard worfc than be v a-: jack-a-i!aady,' wWi noWiing to do but to look in the' g)stsa and see a fellow w!m never put a single potatoe in the nation pot, bhf took a good many out., f Let me drop on these burrey hills, worn out like my maslor's old brown mare, sooner cat breadi aodt cheese and ' never earn 1 tiiy people g'thyV!taORLnectffof, for they always talce'TOc rriot., paiS in the end "j they will njot me fid the tHaic'h, and so they have to builct a1 new e'o'tf'a'ge J they will riot ptft the horse in the cart; and so' have to drag it themselves. If ibljy vt';rewi.c. they would do tlitif- drkwell. io as to save doin it t trice ; , hd , tag hard while, they are in liarpets.p tso get ihfc Work out of the : way. My adyicej is, if you. don't like d .work just pitch into it, settle it t off, ' and have your turn at rest. ; It wish all religious people would ingly lazy,, and make sad work for the tongues of the wicked. I think a'god ly ploughman ought, to be the best man in the fleldrand let no 'team 1 biiii hiii. When we are at' work, we oH'ight'''to be at it, and not stop the plough to talk; ieven Ihoi'ghthc talk may, be abbift re ligion ; for then we not onbr rob of?r employers of our own time, out of the time of the horses too. I used to hear people say. "Never stop the plough to catch a mouse," and it's q,nitp as' sifly to stop for idle Qhat; besides, the man who loiters when the master is away, is an eye server, ' which, I take it. it the very opposite of a christian. If some of the members, at our meeting were a little more . spry jwitu thjr arms and legs when tley are at labor, and a little quieter with their tongues, they would say more for our rc!giou than the' now do. The world says the greatest rogue is the pioiu rogue J and I am sorry to say one one of the greatest sluggards I know of is a JJro fessing man of the "Mr. alkative'' kind. His garden is so jtfvergrown with weeds, that 1 ..feel "ofteff half a mind to weed it for him, to save our' meetiug-tlie shame which- h? brings upon it if he were n young lad,. I'd talk to him about it liftd try to .teach liira better, but who can be schoolmas ter to a child sixty years old? lie is a reg ilar thorn to or g'octf minister, who who is quite grieved abcut it, and sometimes says he will go pomewher else because he cannot LfeariSuch con duct; but I tell him that wherever a man lives he is sure to have lone thorn-, bush near his door, and it is' a merc if there are not. two. However, I do 5 wish that 11 christians would be in dustrious, for religion nevef was cT' siirned to make us idle. Jesus was' a" great worker, and : his disciples rh'u'stl not be afraid of hard work. As to serving the Lord hearts and drowsy "soiils,' with cold there has been too nicch 01 it. ami it. causes re- Itorion to wither. Men ride stag when they hunt for gain, and snails when theri are on the rosd to?. 'heaven.- Preachers go on see-sawing,' droning. and prosing, and the prople fall to yawning and folding their arms, and then say that God is withholdidg. the blessing. Every sluggard, , when he finds himself enlisted in: . the ragged regiment blames his luck j, and. .tome churches have learned the satae .wicked trick. I believe that wheu Paul plants and Apollos waters, God gives the .in crease,, and I have no ' patiense, wUh those who throw the. Warner I on dod when it belongs to themselves . .'l Now Lhave come to the 'end of my tether. I am afraid I jhave been watering a dead 6take, but II have done my best, and a king cau do; no more. An ant can never make honey if it work its heart out, and I shall never put my thoughts so prettily together as some do, book-fashion ; jbut truth is " truth.'even when dressedi in home- r 1 1 . spun, and so there is an end of my rigmarole. j Double and Twis A laughable circumstance'once took place upon a trial in Lancashire, where tne Rev.

Triste tays he "would,' say to Wid ower, he has no ammunition to waste eft stfch game."

If he was what he ought to be n,y ignorance would elicit from him the profoundest ' syrn- )athy, instead of his collegiate and dignified contempt. ' Triste is bound to confess ibat every man,' however pitably ifgncrant, is botrod to Bcito something, 'and what little talent I possess seems to be ' concentrated, and lies in that direction, admirably adap ted to skinning logger-heads.
