Excerpt from Practical Morality, or a Guide to Men and Manners: Consisting of Lord Chesterfield's Advice to His Son; To Which Is Added, a Supplement Containing Extracts From Various Books, Recommended by Lord Chesterfield to Mr. Stanhope; Together With the Polite Philosopher

The abilities of Lord Chesterfield, to inculcate such precepts as should form the mind and fashion the manners of youth, are too universally admired to need encomium. In the Advice of that noble Earl to his Son, there are to be found such judicious remarks on men, manners, and things, connected with so intimate a knowledge of the world, that the sentiments, considered as maxims, form a very valuable system of education.
