Mudr>iy and Confidence

The first element of success is
seleconfdence. The man who
distrusts his own capacity to accom-,
plish a great work, will never
achieve victory Of it. He must
fist psychologist himself, as it
were, into that condition of pseu-
do-:nspiration which communicates
the mysterious power of success;
by exalting the mentality to a lev
el with it's task, however gigantic.
After that, the feat becomes COM
parat:vely an easy one. All the
rest is Heather and prunella-it is
patience and perseverance, unfal-
terfng courage and irdomitable
pertinacity. Even fortune may
lie won in this manner, by the
sufficiently bold in the pursuit ct
it. Queen Victoria had not a
penny Of private fortune when
she reached tie throne, for her
father died overwhelmed with debt.
Louis Napoleon was in a worse con-
dition, for he was personally insol-
vent, and his creditors were clam
orous. We only mention these as
distinguished examples Of good
luek-for every day presents the
world of common lite, could We
but see them, with just as sur
prising instance of good fortune,
and who shall say that his turn
in the golden revolution may not
come next2 And o sanguine be-
lief in its approach will go far, we
suspect, to precipitate the crls s
which must introduce it. A bold,
resolute, irresistible confidence, in
It's advent will often, though we
know not why, occasion success,
Just as constant representation
of evil SO frequently seems to SUI
perinduce the very mischiefit spe-
cially apprehendcd. So go to!
your modesty is a. good thing IN
its place; it BELTS a valiant trench
er-man;" but for soldier Of for
tune-one who is not content to
feed upon "adversity's sweet milk,
philosophy"-give US instead, that
gentle audacity which knows nc
fear, INDUCES in no doubt, gives
way before no rebuff, and can be
crushed out by no calamity!

Just One Day too Late-The

Disappointment IN Psfkop0iis.

On the announcement Of the
defeat at Fort Donelson, the prices
Of pork at Cincinnati advanced
from 50 to S12 per Dbl, the Yam
KEGS supposing they would soon be
able to open q big trade with Ten
nessee. How griesously they have
been disappointed is eSinced by
the fact, that the price has again
rapidly declined, andy the follow
ing acknowledgment of the Gin
'cinnati Enquirer, which, in its
i"Talk on Change" ON the 1st inst,
says:
"The principal talk to-day,
was in regard to the occupancy of
Columbus and the opening of the
trade of the South. The disloy;l
ty of the people of GAINESVILLE and
other Southern ports, tends to dis
Eearten these who, a few days
since, were confident that the trade
with most Of the posts on the Mis-
sissippi, Tennessee and Cumberland
rivers, would, within sixty days.,
he fully open to the commerce of
Cincinnati. With these views,
some days since, large purchases
were made of the product of the
hog, which to sell to-day would en-
tail heavy loss on the seller.
