A NOVEL TEST.
IT A COUNTRY ICIRYOR. ''...
" tvery man," saye Burke; '« his hie price."
There is a great deal Wore intolved in this than is
generally supposed ; and hundreds who indiikint-
ry reject it as a libel on human more, show, al
mo=t daily, that they have their price. The senti
ment just quoted is most commonly understood to
mean, that there is a certain monepeonsidergion, •
by which every man may be tempted into a viola
tion of hnnut and honesty. Butt this is only its
most palpable and grossest signification j and, thus
interpreted, it well not bear a universal application,
Hundreds and thousands, who ate constantly giv
ing evidence, in one form or another, that they
have their price, world reject, with indignation,
any attempt to bribe them from noggin), no matter
bow large the consideration offered.
What then does it mean! is asked. Simply,
that every man, by nature, has an- evil. will; and
that there is some form of temptatioWertich, as an
easily besetting sin, will draw him aside from a
just regard to his neighbor's rights etaleis he balm

say, that no man reaches the age of rational free.
don, without, in something small or great, being
drawn aside into acts that were not
. just td others.
In proof thereof, let every man examine his own
We. Beyond this, no evidence is asked to sub
stantiate the position that every man .bas his price.
One will yield a point of principle, in order to se
cure some trifling advantage. Another will speak
ill of his neighbor, from the fact that it makes him.
feel pleasant to do so—the pleasurable feeling is
his price. Another, whose love of reputation, or
desire to have the credit of being a truly ilboesi
man, in order to forward his interests, leads him to
strict rectitude before the world, will withold a 'six
pence or shilling of the full amount really due to
a porter, coal-beaver, wood-sawyer, or other poor
persons from whom he has received a service, and
experience a‘feeling of satisfaction at teeing saved
the paltry sum. Is there a question of the fact;
that such men have their price! None. Hun
dreds and thousands thus sell themselves daily and
hourly, who would reject, as an insult, beyond
atonement, an oiler of money to make a false ac
cusation against another, or betray a friend, or his
Country.
Let every one examine hie own heart, and his
own conduct, and see if,,in certain ants of his life,
so secret as almost to pass without his reflecting
upon them, be is not, for a enturideration felt to be
deitmble, parting, with honor 'ad integrity! The
examination is worth making.

it happened, one day, that Semite Gregory and
hia character for honesty, Wined the abject of
conversation among several persons, one at whom
was the editor of i newspaper pabhabed in the
town.
"Squire Gregory" remarked the Inner, Ow lire
ening for some time to what woe mid; "is, no
doubt, one of the most hone* men living. still, I
do not believe him to be strictly 119.'
White I Willie," said one of the einpany,
" that Squire Gregory could not be teMptekin the
value of a sixpence, to ' wrong another .by with
bolding what was justly his due, or by over-reach
ing in is tirgain."
" Thiderstand, gentlemen," said the minor to this
that I think as highly of Squire Gregory as any
mu in town. But fam satisfied, that .1 can pot
him to a test, as well as every man present, that
will show a palpable disregard to the plainest and
most cotnmon geniis views of honesty • The fact
is, and no use trying to deny it, we all, as Burke
toys ; have our price. That isobere is appertain
ing to us all some weakness, or easily be-sening
sin, that leads us, almost unawares, into acts by
which our neighbors suffer wrong either in person,
property, or reputation. Or, if not led, into direct
acts, we are betrayed into omissions of duty by
*hid others are equally wronged."
"Then we-are - evil of 'neeessity,"-said sae.
"No, not by necessity, but by native."
" What is the difference!"
"Necessity would make the 'tor a
. fixed one ;
bat inherited evil propenivties may be . 'overcome;
and it is the duty of 'ray man to search into his
heart and life, and to see,in what he is tempted et
this nature to do'wrong Mothers. When he has
discovered the lurking devil in his bresst, let him
cast him out, op he can if he wilL"
," Humph! That's your theory! And, so you
don't think our Squire Gregory honest in every
thing!"
" I do not?
Well, all I have to say is, if he is not I strictly
honest man, I don't believe• there is one in the
world."
"1 don't know how that may be," replied the
editor. 4 '.1 only know that we are all born with
propensities to seek oar own good at• the cost of
even the rights of our' fellow•menl and that no
man rises superior to this evil state, without many
and sore struggles with the evil will that is ever
prompting him to unjust anions. Even the best
are not wholly good." •
" No, of course not,''
• " Nor do I believe Squire Gregory to be perfectly
honest in all his dealings with the world," added
the ed
" Then you think him wilfully dishonest in some
things 1"
" No, ido not say that. Bat lam well satisfied'
that I could probe him in such a way as to show
that by neglect, almost wilful, he has wronged for
for years and still wrongs his fellow man. That
he has enjoyed; in fat, the goods df another With
out paying kit them."
That's rather a grave charge."
41 I know it is."
Will yowmake it to his. face 1"
" Certainly."
't Then suppose we all adjourn to the office o
I the squire, and have the point settled "
" No objection in the world,".said the editor.
So. the pony went to Squint Gregory's of As
they entered, one of them said s—
n,
" Good morning, squire! We come to try a
case in your office."
"Ah Who's the defendantt"
U Younself."
"Me."
" Yes. Oar friend B—, here, says ..that you
are nous strictly honest man, and we've brought
him to prefer the charge to your flee. So consider
yourself on trial."
The blood mounted .to the - very forehead of
Squire Gregory, at such an udlooked for and scan
dalous allegation.

squire, in a disturbed manner. • .

"No, I think not."
" lf, then, he collected

deduct iwenty.five per neut. for expenses, besides
commissions. Atter that, how much do you think
would be left for the publishers!"
" Why don't they appoint local agents! That
would save this expense."
" And have to send a collector, in the end, to
get the money out of the local agent's bands."
" Let them appoint honest, men."
a How We. publisher, a thousand miles away go

ty honest men in thirty different places, and ten die=
honest men in ten other places. The ten dishonest
agents will collect promptly, and keep the money;
and the thirty honest ones will have, perhaps, too
much to attend to matters of their own, lo look al
ter the publisher's interests. I've seen the practi
cal working of this system, and know precisely
what are its evil's.
"Then I can only say," retained the squire,
"that publishers must have a pretty hard tine in
getting what is justly their due."
Yon may well say that, Squire Gregory."
" What is the Remedy 1"
" For every man who takes a periodical to feel
thit he is bound in honor and honesty to pay for it"
" I feel that; and pat IhavellOt paid for the La
dy's Book in two years, nor fiiithe Post in three.—
I have not bad the opportunity."
Rather say, squire, that your honest or bonor:
able feelings have an been permitted to come into
activity."
" Them has been no opportunity "
" Perhaps you are mistaken as to that."
" 06, no. Not at all."
" Would-you embrace tit, opportunity now if it
were presented I"
" Certainly L would."
"Give me a sheet of pope: and a pen," said the
editor.
They were banded to him, and he at down and
wrote:—
" Ida. L. A. Goner,
" Ass* &a.—Enclosed you wilt find twelve dol
lars. Six, for my two years subsonption doe the
Lady's Brick and six that t will trouble youto hand
to the poblisbers of the Saturday Post. Let me
have reoeipts by return mail." t
"Do you understand that 7" said It—, handing
the sheet of paper to the squire.
13quire Gregory read over what was written;
paused to reflect for a moment; and then taking
up the pen, signed the letter.
"You are right—you are right, my friend s " arid
he, as he took out hie pocket book, and elected
the bills necessary to send. " I ought to have
thought of this before). In bet, to • teU the bulk, I
did think of it several times—bet—but the troth
is, I neglected it. In other words to speak out
plainly, I have not been honest between Man and

Rites was directed to draw up a paper' about the

was chosen of the most trustworthy officers; and
sundry other arrangements made, which kept more
than.to,ooo people, day and night, in employ. In
