misery, and, twrbaps, occasion a a
touch crime aa aoy other fault or
tolly of oar loolUb aod cxtreuiely
faulty race, ita Immediate com.--queuco
ia tba humiliation ol the
debtor. Aa Solomen su.a, "the
borrower ia eei vnnt to the lender,"
and tbe Greek verse tells tbe same
traih in bardly diflereM words,
when it aaya that "debt makes tree
men slaves." Borrowing (without
debt, however) from these, our
wise old triend. Puucb. sava in hia I
Letter-Writer, "the debtor, let him
hold Ut hia bead and ruffle, it na he
will, ia tbe bondman tbe sort of
the creditor." It ia true, indeed,
tbat there are aome to whom the
slavery of debt seems to be i light
burden, or no burden at all, and
wbe can gayly sua their fingers
at a creditor with aome old saw iu
Pistol's vein, to the effect tbut
'base ia tbe slave who pays."
Much wit was expended by the
dramatists aud essayists last cen
tury ou tbe airy cheerfulness of
debtors; but it may be doubted
whether aucb a cheerfulness ia ever
genu i ue or Pistol's lot a lot to be
desired. Elia, who wrote most
amusingly on tbe subject ot lior
rowers and lenders, knew the deep
humiliation which the borrower
bears. A frleud to whom be once
lent 50 seemed immediately to
lose all tbe freedom of friendship
in his subsequent conversations
with his kindly creditor. Accord
ingly, Lamb took pains one day to
say as many things as possible
who wbicli be kuew bia friend
did uot agree, and, enuounterin
no dissent, the dear old stammerer
cried out; "(J-c contradict me, you
Villain, or p-p-pay me those f t rJltv
pouuds!" Tba humiliation of the
sensitive and the degradation of
tbe dull which debt brings have
often been shown by earnest writ
era. Thackeray pictures it iu
many . distressing and degrading
aspects. Ot the He v. Charles
Honeytnau Colonel Newuiau nays t
"Tbiuk ot flying before a washer
woman, or humbling yourself to a
tailor, or eating a poor man's chit
dren's bread;" and F. Baybam,
speauiug ot the same Habitual bor
roweu, observes to Clive Xewcomes
"lake warning by bun, dear youth

Le exclaims: "Ob; it is wretched
to have to confront a just and ott
repeated demand, and to be with
ut tbe means to aalisfy it,
to be placed in the pewer ot auotb
er, to be indebted- to bia lenity, to
ataud conriated ot having played
tbe knave or tbe fool, aud to have
no way left to escape contempt but
by incurring pity V Poor liobin
Burns iu bis early days declared
that he "abhorred aa bell" tbe
shames which debt blinds, and
tbat this wholesome dread had
made bin "a strict economist :" but
the wreck aud ruin ot bia better
lite waa signalized by the sonow-
ful fact that he became at lust a
cbrouio borrower ot small some
from reluctant leuders. Some ot
tbose who figure disreputably us
easy aud contented debtors are far
less easy than they seem. Leigh
Hunt, whom Dickens pillored for
ever iu the charaiter of Horace
Skimpole, was not iu fact tbe light
hearted creature who figures iu
"Bleak Douse," but is said to have
beeu "so incessantly haunted by
bis obligations, and so over-anxious
to fulfill all that was due from
Dim, that he often paralysed bis
own powers'' in tbe vain effort to
meet demand Licit he ought not
to have incurred. Not tbe least
wise ot Dr. Johnson's eounsels to
Boswell was couched in these
words: "Do uot accustom yiurself
to consider debt only aa an incon
venience; you will find it a calami
ty." Debt is iudeed a calamity,
and such a calamity, that Disraeli
joatly said ot it that if youths could
but know tbe wretchedness in store
tor them wbeu they accept a credit
to wlii-jb they are not entitled, they
ftbriuk from it with rear. "How
tbey would start in their career!
Dow tbey would tremble and claap
their hands Ii agony at the prei-i
pice on wbicb tbey are dixKrting r
Tbe worst calamity of debt is tbat
it tends to break down the whole
moral character, it is a daily ex
perience tbat it saps the found a
tious of veracity. Sir Henry lay
lor did not greatly exaggerate, its
every money collector can testify,
when he said :
Aa anthrift waa a liar ham all tiow;
Kever waa debtor that waa ot deceiver.
To tbe aame efiect, says D Bal
tac: "Yes, to a generous ma a, debt
is a bell. Aa aapaid debt is a
UaeueM; it is the begiuaing of
knavery; and worse thaa that, it
ia ft lie, aod tbe opeaing to many
crime." Lord Lj tton goes as far,

luto such snares are the youthful
and unwary hired by tbe fatal fa
cilit.i ol borrowing, and ofteu by
the iucoiiHiderate exactions of ex
pensive society. There is many a
man now languishing iu piinou
whose uuhappv Me waa wrecked
upon the shoals ol debt, heedlessly
incurred iu youth, to en.'.ble him to
shine in cueles where l is very
name is now forgotten, or remem
bered only with contempt If we
could send a word ot kindly warn
ing to the young men ot this city,
we would bitl them keep their out

moans. As Ueorge Herbert says:
By no nieaus run in debt ; take thine own
measure.
Who cannot live on tweuty pounds s

Cnnuot on forty ; bo's a niau of pleasure,
A kind of tbing that's for itself too dear.
Any young man w ho would make
bia way in this world will be wise

year, and all years to follow tbe
advice of old Polouius :
Neither a borrower or a lender be ;
For borrowing dulls tbe edge ot husband

It would te well if borrowing did
no worse than tbat. It does not
only dull the edge ot husbandry.
It whets the edge of instruments of
