APPLEGATH, Stamford-street; and sold by - J. DAVIS, 56, Paternoster-row; and by J. NISBET, 21, Berners-street, - Oxford-street. - - * * * * * - -WILL you permit one, who was once in a similar situation with yourself, -to present a Paper, the design of which is to promote your best interest? - -Your parents regard you with tender affection and anxious hope. Should -it please Almighty God to spare your life, you will certainly be an -instrument of increasing the great mass of sin and misery, or the small -sum of piety and happiness. How desirable to increase the latter! It is -at present uncertain what station you will fill, what influence you will -possess, or by what circumstances you will be surrounded. Man is born -ignorant of every thing. Education is necessary, because you have every -thing to learn. Impelled by duty to God and to you, your parents have -placed you under the care of those whose instructions and admonitions, if -rightly improved, will make you respectable and happy. Next to Christian -ministers, your teachers and governors sustain, in various respects, the -highest and most important office in the world. And since the time you -will spend with them is short, you are under so much the greater -obligation carefully to improve it. - -When you rise in the morning, fail not to acknowledge your dependence on -God, whose watchful kindness continually preserves you. Adore him for -his greatness and goodness. Confess to him your guilt. Beseech him to -bestow pardon and purity of heart, through his Son Jesus Christ. Pray -earnestly for an increasing aptitude to learn, and for such continued aid -as may enable you to realize the best wishes of your friends. And while -you pray for yourself, include your teachers, your schoolfellows, your -parents, your friends, and all mankind. - -Appear among the earliest in school. A habit of punctuality indicates -some fixed principle, and will be eminently to your advantage through -life. While in the school, maintain silent attention. Let the -foundation of your grammar-learning be laid deep: you are not to think it -unreasonable that you are required to learn the same rules once and -again. This repetition fastens them in your memory. - -Indulge a generous spirit of emulation, aiming to excel in every useful -acquirement. Be careful in the formation of intimate friendships. If -any of your schoolfellows discover bad dispositions, prudently avoid -them. Attach yourself to those chiefly who are diligent, thoughtful, and -amiable. Behave always in the most respectful manner to your teachers, -and to all that occasionally visit you. Avoid the extremes of -bashfulness, and bold presumption; frankness and modesty form a happy -union. In diet, be moderate; in apparel, neat; among your companions, -cheerful and kind. The law of God is a law of love indeed; for it -requires you to love every body; and every body to love you. Never tell -a lie, nor conceal one when it is your duty to make it known; at the same -time, remember that a tale-bearer in a school is an odious character. - -But my principal object is, to entreat your attention to the important -concerns of the everlasting world. You have read in your Bible, that -Adam, the first of our race, was created in the image of God, a perfectly -holy, just, and good man; but he soon apostatized from God, and so lost -the divine favour and image. We, descending from him, are necessarily -partakers of his nature, and of the depravity with which it was stained. - -Consider what you ought to be, and compare with that what you have been -in heart and life, ever since you were able to distinguish good from -evil; and you will be convinced that you are a SINNER. It is therefore -indispensably necessary that you have a Redeemer, and wonderful is the -love of God in providing one: - - “Not to be thought on, but with tides of joy. - Not to be mention’d, but with shouts of praise.” - -His name is JESUS: he is a person of infinite dignity; his blood -cleanseth from the guilt of all sin. In that sacred fountain wash and be -clean. - -You have also as much need of a Sanctifier as of a Redeemer, for none but -the pure in heart shall see God. The Sanctifier is the Holy Spirit of -God. To be happy in Heaven, you must have a heavenly disposition. -“Heaven is a prepared place for a prepared people.” It is not long since -you were born into the world; O that it may not be long before you are -_born again_! - -Bear with me, dear youth; let me detain your attention a little longer on -a theme so important. If a soul immortal is superior to a perishing -body—if eternity is longer than time—if Heaven is higher than the ground -we tread—if God, the great Fountain of being and bliss, is all in all; -then your wisdom, duty, and happiness, all unite in this one point—your -seeking the glory of God in your present and everlasting salvation. - -The _advantages_ of early piety are innumerable. It is difficult to say -how many dangers will be avoided, how many felicities attained! The -profane youth, listening to the advice of evil counsellors, and indulging -the worst propensities of his nature, plunges at once into pollution and -misery. Health and peace, reputation and usefulness, are soon lost, but -not easily regained. In some cases all are absolutely irrecoverable. -The heart of a parent is filled with the most bitter anguish—the numbers -of the wicked are increased, and their hands strengthened—good men are -grieved and wounded—the holy name of God is dishonoured—and the immortal -soul is swallowed up in the depths of hell! - -On the other hand, if, in early life, you seek after the God of Israel, -the most delightful consequences may be justly expected. God will be -glorified, and your everlasting happiness effectually secured. - -Indeed, the manner in which you conduct yourself where you now are, -creates those hopes on the one hand, or fears on the other, which most -materially affect the happiness of your best friends. Besides, you will -long feel the effects of your present conduct. If you are now idle, -quarrelsome, selfish, mean, and regardless of religion; whatever change -of character you may experience afterwards, you will be found to have -invited difficulties and pains, which will more or less embarrass and -torture you to the latest period of life; while diligence, kindness, -liberality, and the love of God, will shed on your path that light “which -shineth more and more unto the perfect day.” Thus will useful knowledge -be stored up, and correction become unnecessary; your teachers will be -well rewarded for their trouble, and your parents for all their cost: -from school you will go into the scenes of business, and take your place -among those, who, under Providence, are supplying the world with its -comforts. - -But religion conveys you far beyond these mortal employments: the -Almighty Saviour stretches forth his hand to lead you into eternity. -And, Oh! what glorious instructions does he communicate along all the -path! He speaks of the love of God, the life of faith, the joys of -heaven; when it is needful, he reproves; nor does he fail to encourage; -he administers truth, and, superior to all earthly teachers, he opens the -understanding that it may receive it. But I must conclude. Accept -kindly the information and advice which have now been given with much -freedom, but equal cordiality, by - - A sincere, though unknown, - FRIEND. - - * * * * * - -_London_: _Printed by_ A.

Should it please Almighty God to spare your life, you -will certainly be an instrument of increasing the great mass of -sin and misery, or the small sum of piety and happiness. -How desirable to increase the latter! It is at present -uncertain what station you will fill, what influence you will -possess, or by what circumstances you will be surrounded. -Man is born ignorant of every thing. Education is -necessary, because you have every thing to learn. Impelled -by duty to God and to you, your parents have placed you under the -care of those whose instructions and admonitions, if rightly -improved, will make you respectable and happy. Next to -Christian ministers, your teachers and governors sustain, in -various respects, the highest and most important office in the -world. And since the time you will spend with them is -short, you are under so much the greater obligation carefully to -improve it.</p> -<p>When you rise in the morning, fail not to acknowledge your -dependence on God, whose watchful kindness continually preserves -you. Adore him for his greatness and goodness. -Confess to him your guilt. Beseech him to bestow pardon and -purity of heart, through his Son Jesus Christ. Pray -earnestly for an increasing aptitude to learn, and for such -continued aid as may enable you to realize the best wishes of -your friends. And while you pray for yourself, include your -teachers, your schoolfellows, your parents, your friends, and all -mankind.</p> -<p>Appear among the earliest in school. A habit of <a -name="page2"></a><span class="pagenum">p. 2</span>punctuality -indicates some fixed principle, and will be eminently to your -advantage through life. While in the school, maintain -silent attention. Let the foundation of your -grammar-learning be laid deep: you are not to think it -unreasonable that you are required to learn the same rules once -and again. This repetition fastens them in your memory.</p> -<p>Indulge a generous spirit of emulation, aiming to excel in -every useful acquirement. Be careful in the formation of -intimate friendships. If any of your schoolfellows discover -bad dispositions, prudently avoid them. Attach yourself to -those chiefly who are diligent, thoughtful, and amiable. -Behave always in the most respectful manner to your teachers, and -to all that occasionally visit you. Avoid the extremes of -bashfulness, and bold presumption; frankness and modesty form a -happy union. In diet, be moderate; in apparel, neat; among -your companions, cheerful and kind. The law of God is a law -of love indeed; for it requires you to love every body; and every -body to love you. Never tell a lie, nor conceal one when it -is your duty to make it known; at the same time, remember that a -tale-bearer in a school is an odious character.</p> -<p>But my principal object is, to entreat your attention to the -important concerns of the everlasting world. You have read -in your Bible, that Adam, the first of our race, was created in -the image of God, a perfectly holy, just, and good man; but he -soon apostatized from God, and so lost the divine favour and -image. We, descending from him, are necessarily partakers -of his nature, and of the depravity with which it was -stained.</p> -<p>Consider what you ought to be, and compare with that what you -have been in heart and life, ever since you were able to -distinguish good from evil; and you will be convinced that you -are a <span class="GutSmall">SINNER</span>. It is therefore -indispensably necessary that you have a Redeemer, and wonderful -is the love of God in providing one:</p> -<blockquote><p>“Not to be thought on, but with tides of -joy.<br /> -Not to be mention’d, but with shouts of praise.”</p> -</blockquote> -<p><a name="page3"></a><span class="pagenum">p. 3</span>His name -is JESUS: he is a person of infinite dignity; his blood cleanseth -from the guilt of all sin. In that sacred fountain wash and -be clean.</p> -<p>You have also as much need of a Sanctifier as of a Redeemer, -for none but the pure in heart shall see God. The -Sanctifier is the Holy Spirit of God. To be happy in -Heaven, you must have a heavenly disposition. “Heaven -is a prepared place for a prepared people.” It is not -long since you were born into the world; O that it may not be -long before you are <i>born again</i>!</p> -<p>Bear with me, dear youth; let me detain your attention a -little longer on a theme so important. If a soul immortal -is superior to a perishing body—if eternity is longer than -time—if Heaven is higher than the ground we tread—if -God, the great Fountain of being and bliss, is all in all; then -your wisdom, duty, and happiness, all unite in this one -point—your seeking the glory of God in your present and -everlasting salvation.</p> -<p>The <i>advantages</i> of early piety are innumerable. It -is difficult to say how many dangers will be avoided, how many -felicities attained! The profane youth, listening to the -advice of evil counsellors, and indulging the worst propensities -of his nature, plunges at once into pollution and misery. -Health and peace, reputation and usefulness, are soon lost, but -not easily regained. In some cases all are absolutely -irrecoverable. The heart of a parent is filled with the -most bitter anguish—the numbers of the wicked are -increased, and their hands strengthened—good men are -grieved and wounded—the holy name of God is -dishonoured—and the immortal soul is swallowed up in the -depths of hell!</p> -<p>On the other hand, if, in early life, you seek after the God -of Israel, the most delightful consequences may be justly -expected. God will be glorified, and your everlasting -happiness effectually secured.</p> -<p>Indeed, the manner in which you conduct yourself where you now -are, creates those hopes on the one <a name="page4"></a><span -class="pagenum">p. 4</span>hand, or fears on the other, which -most materially affect the happiness of your best friends. -Besides, you will long feel the effects of your present -conduct. If you are now idle, quarrelsome, selfish, mean, -and regardless of religion; whatever change of character you may -experience afterwards, you will be found to have invited -difficulties and pains, which will more or less embarrass and -torture you to the latest period of life; while diligence, -kindness, liberality, and the love of God, will shed on your path -that light “which shineth more and more unto the perfect -day.” Thus will useful knowledge be stored up, and -correction become unnecessary; your teachers will be well -rewarded for their trouble, and your parents for all their cost: -from school you will go into the scenes of business, and take -your place among those, who, under Providence, are supplying the -world with its comforts.</p> -<p>But religion conveys you far beyond these mortal employments: -the Almighty Saviour stretches forth his hand to lead you into -eternity. And, Oh! what glorious instructions does he -communicate along all the path! He speaks of the love of -God, the life of faith, the joys of heaven; when it is needful, -he reproves; nor does he fail to encourage; he administers truth, -and, superior to all earthly teachers, he opens the understanding -that it may receive it.

To SEND -DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any particular -state visit www.gutenberg.org/donate - -While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we -have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition -against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who -approach us with offers to donate. - -International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make -any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from -outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff. - -Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation -methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other -ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations. To -donate, please visit: www.gutenberg.org/donate - -Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works. - -Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project -Gutenberg-tm concept of a library of electronic works that could be -freely shared with anyone. For forty years, he produced and -distributed Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of -volunteer support. - -Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed -editions, all of which are confirmed as not protected by copyright in -the U.S. unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not -necessarily keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper -edition. - -Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search -facility: www.gutenberg.org - -This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm, -including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary -Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to -subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks. - -</pre></body> -</html> diff --git a/old/62528-h/images/cover.jpg b/old/62528-h/images/cover.jpg Binary files differdeleted file mode 100644 index 59046f6..0000000 --- a/old/62528-h/images/cover.jpg +++ /dev/null |
