From Locke'i -Miicdlanous Papers, publuhed in his Life by Lord King J , ft is a man's proper business to seek happiness and avoid misery. Happiness consists- in what delights and coi.tents the mind; misery in what disturbs, discom poses, or torments it. I will therefore make it ny business lo seek satisfaction and delight, and avoid uneasiness and disquiet ; to have as much of the one and as liitle of the other as may te. But here I must have a care I mistake not; for ii I prefer a short pleasure to a lasii. one, it is p'.ain i cioss my own happiis.' Let me then see wherein consists the most lasting pleasure of this lite, and that, as far as L can obserre, is in these things: 1st. Health, without which do sensual pleasure can hare any relish. 2nd. Reputation, for that I find every body is pleased with; arid the want of it is .1 constant tormenL- 3rd. Knowledge, for the little know ledge I bare, I find 1 would not sell at any rate, nor part with for any other pleasure. 4th. Doing good, for I find the well cooked meat I eat to-day does now no more delight me, nay, lam diseased after a full meal; the perfumes I tmilt yester day now no more atleet tne with any pleasure; but the good turn I did yester day, a year, seven yeara since, continues still to please and delight mo as often as I reflect on it. 5th. The expectation of eternal and in comprehensible happiness ia another world is that also which enrries a con stant pleasure with it i As opposed to intelltctuaJ. ; Tlic Prophcry. subjoin a letter tvliich the late 1. mentfd Maini TV-niny wrnlii tn ti Editor of the New-York Daily Adrer jtrser. three years since."
