Text Appearing Before Image:

a bag of moonshine. 4. All the operations of your substitute for a mind are jargon and con-fusion. Like the poet Grays boat:— •Borne down adrift at random tossedIts oar breaks short, its rudders lost. 5. Should you ever have the misfortune to venture to mount thestump, or hold forth as a preacher, your utterances would beautifullyremind your audience of the sounding brass and the tinkling cymbal—total jargon. 6. Feeling always easy as to the manner in which you put forth yourideas, you may often detect yourself presenting first the thoughts youshould reserve for the last part of your discourse. 7. Though you are no adept in the orderly and consecutive arrange-ment of your ideas, yet you can admiringly appreciate a systematic, con-sequential thinker. 8. You have the acuteness to discern whether your mental subject isdominated by order or reigned over by old Chaos. 9. Those who possess mental order in a large degree will feel muchpleasure in your arrangement of ideas and subjects.

Possessed of a comprehensive and grasping mind, you canappreciatingly appropriate and assimilate every part of a subject fordebate, essay, or treatise, as to its sestlietic and artistic arrangement. 11. A speech of yours would be as consequential as the hours of theday, as well arranged as the fixed stars, and as methodical as WilliamPenns small clothes, or Voltaires ruffles and peruke. 12. Being intensely methodical in your notions you are consideredby the silly a perfect oddity. You never throw down your pearls inheaps, expecting the hearer or reader to pick them up and string them.With Johnsons idea you thoroughly sympathize, that * Order is a lovelyliymph, the child of Beauty and Wisdom.
