HASTY WORM. How many a soul haa been filled with sorrow at the utterance of a bisty word, h reprovingly spoken, and meant in all t kindness on the -part of the speaker; si 1 at the thongbtofJiMing been- j spoken lo so hastily^ 1or wme trifling a thing they havo done, skben a gentle e v ord would have done ten times tnore S good, and filled the sou' w&h-uAy aujy d ' instead of sorrow. llowua- j fi ny eyes have suddenly filled with tears at n the utterance of a haaty word, spoken p them for some, wrong that has been > t committed How many hearts that J l! would have leaped for joy, a* the stream I ti goes leaping and dancing along on ita j ii stouy bed, to the deep, dark river, have ' c been suddenly filled with deep and bit- { t ter sorrow, or it may be with anger, at : .a the utterance of a hasty word. The I e heart of most peraoas, is very suacepti- li ! and easily affected; and an ungentle c I word of reproof, hastily uttered, fills it | v j with pain and sorrow. Some, however, ■ c i are differently affected, when spoken to 1 I in haste, and harshly; instead of feeling f I bad sod having sad tears fill their eyes, : a | and sorrow fill their hearts, they get ve- j c | ry angry, and profane words will fill a their months, too horible to hear, or even ' r to think of. Hasty words do far more i t , hurt than good, and neicr should be al- i j lowed to passuor lips. Parents, iu cor- f I resting their children for some petty of . I I fence, or any little wrong they mnv hate i I ! done, often spent to them hastily and ! 1 : harshly, instead of lit a mild, reproving j way, which is the right course to pursue j j in bringing up children right, nnd have ' J them lore and respect you. We cnu- [ uot, then, be too careful how we speak 1 to children or persons that arc of inntu- i rer years, whom we would counsel and i direeOfclid lead iu the path of duty and i ■ of right.
