USEFUL REMARKS. A maxim is sometimes like the seed of al plant, which the soil it is thrown into must expand into leaves, and flowers, and fruit; so that great part of it must sometimes be written, as it were, by the reader. No man was ever so much deceived by another as by himself. Very nice scruples are sometimes the effect of a great mind, but oftener of a little one. True delicacy, as true generosity, is more wounded by an offence from itself, if the expression may be allowed, than to itself. &c.

Nothing abridges life like false steps, idle words, and vain thoughts.-Chinese. Some men talk sensibly and act foolishly, some talk foolishly and act sensibly; the first laugh at the last, the last cheat the first. We are never so ready to praise, as when we are inclined to detract; and often has one man, nay one nation, been flattered by the commendations of a writer, who really meant no more than to fix a stronger censure upon another. Some men are like certain stuffs, beautiful on one side, hideous on the other. First Quarter, 19th day, 10h. 5.1m. M.
