HoPE AND CoURAGE.-True hope is
based on energy Of character. A strong
mind always hopes, and has always cause
TO hope, because it knows the Wp'abiliIy
of human affairs, and how slight circum-
stance may change the whole course o:
events. Such spirit, too, rests upon
itself; it is not confined 10 partial views
or to one particular object. And if al
last, ell should be lost, it has saved
itself,-its own integrity and worth.
Hope awakens courage, while despon'
dency is the last Of all evils, it is the a,
bandonment OF good the giving up ol
the battle of life with dead nothing
ness. He who can mplant courage
in the human soul is its best physi-
clan.
TO seek to govern men by their fears
and their wants is an unworthy purpose ;
to desire TO rule by means of cowardice
is itself cowardice. Love inspires cour.
age and hope, and thus is doubly the CIV
or and preserver Of life.
Whatever teaches us boldly 10 combat
the manifold doubts and assaults of life,
enables US to win the crown Of victory
Special care ought therefore 10 be taken
in education TO teach what trne courage
is--as we'll in social and domestic, as in
public alfaIrs,-and by what means it may
best be sustained.
