niny ueot llio most enunent bonefit
to a nt-ii'liltor. It tHvea him tiia hum..
fit of vourgooti reiiiutmn wlien bo in
not known. It lend liim your credit
where) Ins own m nut nullicient. It
putu him in funds which otlierwino lie
could not command. Sufh aervice lo
friend is generous, und aoinetiines
even noble. JNo betler nan ean he
miidej of one's money than to help a
true friend. We are cointiiundi'ii to
remejiiiher tlioBe in lunda as hound
with them." To he lure, tliia was
originally applied lo bondsofi differ
ent kind, but with not a whit more
propriety than to pwuriiury bonds.
A man who, hv a few thuuKiiml ilnl.
Inrs, can save his friend, and porhups
his fHmilr.from haiikrimtcv and want
could hardly ajiond his money in a
manner which, all his life Ioiil'. he
would remember with more butisfao-
tion.
Itut, thoro aro certain morul and
prudential consideralioiiawliifh should
alwaya bo borne in mind in troinir
surety tor a friend. You nhould make
up your mi ml how inui h property you
have, and how much you are wiliinir
to g ve away, absolutely, for that
friund whom yoa indorse. For no
blunder can be worse tliitn to indorse
on the suppoeition that you will not
have to pay. Js'cver indorse without
saying lo yourseir. "This mav come
around upon mo I may have to pay
and, if it comes to that. 1 am able
and willing." Nine out of ten uf the
fatal mintakes made by bondsmen arise
from taking the opposite course to this.
They consider the act of indorsing
friend's paper as a mere commercial
form. "There is no risk. I slmil nrit
have it to pay. Ho is abundantly able I
lo take caro of his paper. I shall help
nun wiiuotii nnrnmig myself, and lie
i a stingy man who will not do that
This is the calculation on which
man binds himself to pay a friend's
ueots in case the friend cannot pay
them himself Hut how do these
things turn out f One need not go
far to Uncertain ! Every village lias
an illuetration. The borrower waj
more involved than yon supposed, or,
perhaps, than he hiirelf knew, and
his creditors closed oTaifTTt ajtd wound
him up, and wero overjod to firtrl
such a good name as yours on his
paper. Or, the sanguine scheme on
which ho had ventured, which soenied
sure otsnecess, almost without possi.
bilily of failure, suddenly, like a loaded
wagon, slipped off a w'heol and upset
into the dirt!

manner as to attract about him a
crowd of wondering spectator in a
very few minutes. Some of tho lookers-on,
learning the cuuso ot the lieu

disapprobation, when the lieutenant
shouted out: '-D n yon, get away

foot bridge. We walked on across the
bridge, und having given our tribute
to the deud we returned. Tho crowd
was still ut the little plat. Four mu
