POOR RICHARD'S ALMANAC.
Tie only complete collection of this
celebrated almanac., of which we hove
any knowledge, and beyond a doubt the
only one now in existence is in the pos
session of Mr. John Dogget, Jr., of this
city ; a gentleman generally known to
our community as the editor of :he City
Directory, and to a more limited class
of friends, as a most diligent and cul
tivated antiquarian.
It was about four years since Mr.
Dogeet commenced his researches for
these memorable records of Franklin's
learning, wisdom and wit ; and in pros
ec..tine them, he has visited most of the
p , ,blic literary institutions of the coun
try, and conducted a very extensive cor
respondence besides. He has now nee
complete set, commencing with the
year 1733, and continuing until Frank
connection with it terminated in
1758, abort twenty.five years.
About eight years ago, Mr. Sparks,
in his life of Franklin, referring to this
almanac says: It is believe' that a
co it ,lete e lition of Poor Richard's .ill
munac is not now in existence. After
much research I have not been able to
find more than one third of the numbers
that were published." .
The maxims arid smtitnents of Poor
Richard, which, of course, constitute
the supreme attraction of his almanacs,
are printed in italics down the columns
of the calender, in the vacant spaces
not occupied by calender matter, some•
times one word and sometimes more on
a line, and not unfrequently a single
sentiment of six words running down a
whole •otumn.
The following is the first of these gol
den sentences, which we sought with
some curiosity in the first almanac of
1733:
" Never spare the parson's wine nor
she baker's pudding."
We have already alluded to the won
derful popularity of these thoughts of
Poor Richard, a popularity which will
be readily comprehended by those who
are familiar with the wonderful wisdom,
sagacity and wit, which the author has
compressed in his brief and simple sen
tences. So many years have elapsed
eny colleci;on of them has been
laid before the American people, that
we feel we shall oblige many of our
readers by selecting from among them
some which have been leai.t hackneyed
by tit ()Winn. The selections we offer
have been made from the entire series,
embracing a period of twenty-five years,
and one or more from the almanac of
each year:—
Take thie remark from Richard, poor and lame,
Whate'er's begun in anger ends in shame.
Som. men vow mad by studying much to know ;
But who grows mad by studying good to grow 1
An egg to-day is better than a hen to•

He that can travel well afoot, keeps a
good horse.
The worst wheel of the cart makes
the most noise.
He that falls in love with himself will
have no rivals.
Aeainst diseases here, the strongest fence
Is the defensive virtue, Abstinence.
Tart words make no friends ; n spoon
ful of honey will catch more flies than
a gallon of vinegar.
Drive thy business or it will drive thee.
Beware of little expenses; a small
leak will sink a great ship.
An ounce of w , t that is bought,
Is worth a pound that is taught.
A ploughman on his legs is higher

Mad Kings and mad belle are not to

A mob's a monster; head enough but

Nothing humbler than ambition when

A change of fortune hurts a wise man

He that has a trade has an office of
