JUVENILE CRIME.

King Henry.

Warwick,

"The body of our kingdom,

How foul it is; what rank diseases grow, And with what danger, near the heart of it. "It is but as a body yet distemper'd,

Which to his former strength may be restor❜d
With good advice and little medicine."

SHAKSPEARE-King Henry IV.

SAMUEL PHILLIPS DAY.

"Happy are those few nations, who have not waited till the slow
succession of human vicissitudes should, from the extremity of evil,
produce a transition to good; but, by prudent laws, have facilitated
the progress from one to the other."
