a Business View,

Suppose a case. A young man secedes from partner
ship aud sets up for himself He has great resources,
but there is great opposition. Tae old concern Is de
termined to take away all his customers and break him
up. He goes on for two or three years, holding on
bravely bu. losing heavily He is known to b. great
trouble His credit is seriously impaired and his re-
sources much diminished. Sill thsre is enough left, if
husbanded well aud prudenty handled to enable him to
weather the storm.
Heretofore he has been calm, discreet, confident
His courage, di;cseton and tenacty have moro than
once made the old partners doubt whether it would not
cost more than II would come to- to put him down.
On sudden ho begins to look wild, and it is whispered
that he is about to resort to desperate expsdiens His
friends ask him what he Intends TO do. 81 intend to
rick everything have in the world 10 one grand spseu
Ia.ion If fail, shall fail gloriOust; but know
shall succeed" This is bis reply. His friends expos
tula in vain. Hswil not heed them. Tley withdraw
from him. Any aid they may now render him will but
impoverfsh themselves The members of the old con-
Germ smile in triumph, for now they have their young
rival Just where they want him. Bent on desperate
measures and WITHOUT outside assistance, all that is
cessary to ensure his ruin Is little clution and little
time.
Had he pursued the opposite cou!se, retrenched and
husbanded bis resources displayed only the cool
ness and caution his pers increased had he made it
appear that his purpose to make every edge cut to
waste nothing and to prolong the contest indefinitely
and never to venture much as to leave nohng fall
back upon aud to rscuperate from, his fiends would
have cluDg 10 him, would have eked out his mems

Il is due to some Of the members Of the House Of
Representatives to state that the vote published in the
Wing yesterday on hs question of considering tho re
