MORAL CouRAcE.-Sidney Smith, in his
work on moral philosophy, speaks ia this
wise OF what men lose for want Of q little
moral courage or independence Of mind "a
great deal Of talent il lost in the world for
the want Of little courage. Every day
sends to the grave number Of Obscure men,
who have only remained in obscurity be.
cause their timidity has prevented them from
making first effort; and who, IL they could
have been induced TO begin, would, in all
probability, have Como great lengths in the
career Of fame. The fact is, that to do any,
thing in this world worth doing, We must
not stand back, shivering, and thinking Of
the cold and the danger, but jump in and
scramble through ~ well ~ Ne can. twill
not do to be perpetuslly calculating tasks,
and adjusting nice chances; it did very well
before the aood, where man could consult
his friends upon an intended publication for
hundred and City years, and then live to
see its success afterward but at present
man waits, and doubts, and hesitates, and
consults his brother, and his uncle, and par
ticular friends, till, ono 6ne day, he fnds
that he 10 sixty wears OF age: that he has lost
50 much time in consulting his frst cousin
and particular friends, that he has no more
time to follow their advice"
