c;30 LETTI^S, TRACTS, IffC.eyes of ignorant people,may fometimes be ufeful toiiim in the way of trade. A fellow who is both able2nd willing to cheat him at a bargain may be fearedfrom attempting to do i'o, terrified at the danger ofbeing found out by the man who has been at the u-niverfity, and who is therefore fufpedied to be muchwifer than other people.We rem.em.ber too, that one of our old collegecompanions ufed to derive a great deal of privatecomfort from the very thoughts of having had an uni-,verfity education. Whenever he happened to be overcomeat an argument, (v/hich was generally as ofttnas he engaged in one) he always confoled himiftlfwith the reileclion, that he had once wore the gown,vmd had ail along prcferved the folemnity of a profoundfcholar.'An univeriity education is not only perfectly harm- s,lefs to our youth, it may even be of real ufe to them.It has a tendency to build them up in one of themain branches of the commercial fpirit. The learnedprofeifors have always, in their own conducf, difcovereda very laudable attachment to money ; andwe charitably hope they are at all proper pains tofame good difpofition to their ftu-communicate thedents. The authors of the propofal for an academytell us, that the learned profefibrs are not in fomethings very exemplary to their ftudents ; but we v/hoare parents have the fatisfaclion to think, that theirinilru^lions on this important fubj.e£t are accompaniedwith a very edifying example. This is a circumftanceM'hich cannot iail to have its proper effcO:on the tender miinds of our children ; and it gives usa very delightful profpcdl: of what may be the itateof commerce in this city in the next generation, ifwe can keep away the academy.The love of money is an affe6lion of importance*and utility in human life. The four hundred andfiftieth number of the SpeiStator is a moft admirable
paper on this fubje^l.LETTERS, TRACTS, fc.-JgfMr. Epnraim Weed, a confiderabletrader in the tobacco way, writes a letter tothe Spe6lator, in which, from the hiftory of his ownlife, he proves, in a very pleafant and convincingmanner, that the love of money makes men honeft,fober, and religious ; and has a very happy efFe£l inrendering them calm and refigned under fome of thefevereft calamities and misfortunes of life. The Spectatoris not a very proper book for young men fettingout in the trading world ; we are very far frompraifing it by the bulk ; it is only Mr* Wee4's moftexcellent letter that v/e recommend to the f
