A little money is good thing in the out
set of life, if a person has wisdom to make
right and iudicious use of it. But the head
and the pocket must balance well-the scale
must be equipoised-for if one or the other
kicks the beam, a loss will in most cases en-
sue. If you have too little wit, the world
will over-reach you; it too much, you Will
out wit Yourself. In either case, ten chan
ces to one, your purse or rather the con-
tents Of it, will slip through your fingers
Among the dangers to which hereditary
wealth subiectsus, are pride, incidence, ex-
travagance, and the smaller the portion of
our inheritance, the more danger is there
But what is most extraordinary is, that these
very evils, are often nursed up in the era
die with the child, cherished with growth,
and instiled into all his habits as he passes
through the routine of his education, by pa
rental care and misjudging affection.


Cornela was an heiress. That is, she was
worth some thousands OF dollars-l never
knew exactly the sum; common report
speaks the whole truth in these matters, and


it is rather unmannerly to inquire very par
ticularly into lady's fortune.


She was ndulged by her kind friends a
broad-sent to the most fashionable school.
The mistress duly advised that she was a
peculiarly delicate girl, with most exquisite
sensibiities, and rare genius; and was to be
treated with all becoming tenderness and
consideration. There she learned few OF
the useful and greatmany ofthe ornament
al branches taught in such seminaries; and
was finally despatched to "a boarding school
to finish her education; with which the ad-
jective "usetul," had very little, if any thing
to do.


She was now an accomplished lady-she
understood French and painting-was vers-
ed in Bellies Lettres-knew something OF
philosophy, natural and mora-had gone
| the round of the sciences; wrote poetry;
kept an album; understood music; and was
| finally fitted out at home with fine parlor
and a piano. "What fine lady"-said the
wondering viilagers-"what fine lady
how fashionable-how perfectly genteel."
1t is even so; and the first difficulty which
arose, was about the choice of that vexatious
but necessary eyil--a husband. The pret-
| ty girl who has the whole wcrld of beauty
to choose from, sometimes finds it difficult
to make perfect unoblectionable choice. 1t
was not to be wondered at that Cornelia
should be embarrassed in making selection
- for she was circumscribed in her sphere
