''For the first five years Of my professional lfe,"
once said a gentleman TO us, 81 had to row a.
gainst wind and stream and tide s'And what did
you do?'' was our question. ''De,'' replied he,
"do, why rowed on, TO be sure" And so he did
row on, and to good purpose too, until he to
the open sea; took favorable breezes and brought his
voyage to most successful termination, leaving be-
hind him a most enviable reputation of worth and
wisdom-impressing the mark of his strong mind and
excellent character, deep and clear on the COM
munity in which he lived; and obtaining an mmor-
tally, worth more than monarch's crown, in the
respectful memory of thousands. His remark de-
serves to be remembered motto The great bus
mess of all is to crow ono with unfnchng courage
and steady perseverance, All trades and professions
have their difficulties, and almost every individual
meets with discouragements; the only way, there
fore, TO 60 ahead, is to crow on" Decision of char
determination Of wll--the resolution to press
on, when sure we on the right track or in pur-
suit of good and honorable eud-ths is the secret
Of living, so to out at last safe and sound
There are 'lions'' in every path, and they must be
met and conquered, the hope Of ultimate success
must be abandoned. A poor man, with tribe of
children, finding work hard to get, and hard when it
is got, sometimes will almost despair; every thing
will seem to be against him, but let him not be cast
down-let him crow on"' and by and by matters
will very likely grow brighter. As with the poor
man, with all men. Head winds are to be
pected; contrary currents will Gomez the tide does
not always with us, but mind, 'srow on;''
pull the harder, till the bend again. and victory
will wait upon and reward patient endcavors Those
who have risen from obscurity TO eminence- those
who from being poor have become rich-those who,
born in the midst Of ignorance, have forced their way
among the learned-those who have made them
selves, and made themselves WELL have generally
been those who understand the importance of Grow

been alluded 10 in another report of the Auditor to
the General Assembly.
The State Of Vermont on the first day of October,
