THE AMERICAN CHARACTER.

II is matter of high moment to the
young American gentleman to reflect,
as lie shapes his character for life, onthe
model by which he would be moulded
to future distinction. The republican
form of our government, the omnipo-
tence of public opinion in this country
of free, unshacklcd mind, and the high
dcstinies allotted to the elder republic
ofthe western continent, impose pc
cuiiar rules OF formation on the rising
pillars of the American empire. The
The scholar, the jurist, the statesman,
the artist, the mechanic or the cultiva-
tor Of the eastern continent, may not
be the models for those of the new
world-a world happily disenthralled
and aloof from the despotism of hoary
error, the accunulations Of many cen
turtles of ignorance and encroachment
on social rights.
The young American must make re-
Hgion the foundation of his character
for here, as to refuge, the pcrsecu-
ted servants Of God came when the
green curtain Of the wilderness covered
the continent, and their prayers hall
lowed all the soil, and dedicated their
unborn postcrity to holicr cause than
that of earth. The young American
should be generous-for here, as to an
asylum from cruelty and the whirlpool
of revolution, thousands have come,
and millions must come as the old con-
.inents break up under the hammer Of
CONFUSION and melt down under the
purifying fires ofjudgmcnt, to purer
and holier type. He must be patient
and persevering-for those who have
ever breathed the, tainted atmosphere
Of monarchy and hereditary power,
cannot in a moment be made to UNDER
stand the nature and full extent Of our
national freedom; the lessons Of Wash
ington to young nation are often to
be repeated. He must be braye--for
too much has been entrusted to him to
be in the keeping Of q coward. To him
has been committed the worlds last
experiment for liberty TO him belongs
the helm Of the republican vessel, if
his skilland patriotic virtues provehim
worthy to guide the ship Of state thro'
seas Of passion and under the adverse
storms Of external war. He must be
cnergetic-for the men OF America are
sclf-made men, and gather no honor
from birth but the broad proud honor of
citizenship in ascountry where not a
lord nor lordling, as such, can throw
contempt over their plebeian origin.
But, as examples speak more per-
suasingly than prccepts, we propose,
in the future numbers Of the Monthly
Repository, to present lively and brief
original sketches of American charac-
ter-the characters Of men who have
grown up and fourished, or are, now
flourishing, in the midst Of us, and UNI
der the genuine influence Of republican
institutions. Such modelsw we need not
fear to place before the mental vision
Df our youthful readers, and say TO
them, flsese are the e,oels eF.7nacri-
