The man of the world may attempt to cultivate his finer feelings, but he is soon absorbed in the mighty dollar, which glistens before his intellect with a degree of brilliancy that eclipses the great truths, which lie at his feet to be picked up and transmitted to his reception as the best of treasures! Thus is lost in him the design of framing the intellect to some purpose beyond this life, for nothing beneficial has been stored to feast the mind beyond pecuniary gain, which loses its hold at death, and thus the man of the world becomes weak in intellect, remaining so by his own choice and neglect.
