Sidney Smith. in his work on Moral Phloso-

want of little " brass as it is termed
- y great deal of talent is lost TO the world
for the want of little courage. Every day

who have only remained in obscurity because
Il cir tmidty has prevented them from making
first effort, and who. if they had only been in
duced to begin, would. in all probability, have
gone great lengths in the career of fame The
fact is, that in doing anything in the world worth
doing, we must not stand shivering on the bank
thinking of the cold and danger, but jump in and
scramble through As we'll as we can.
/" Ii will not do to be perpetually calculating
risks and adjusting nice chances; il did all very
well before the food when a man could consult
his friends upon intended publication for one
hundred and fifty years, and live to see its sue.
cess for six or seven centuries afterwards; but
at present man waits and doubts, and consults
his brothers and his unces. and his particular
friends till dsv he finds that he is sixty five
years of age, that he has lost SO much time in
consulting first cousins and particular friends
that be has no more time to follow theig advice.
There is so little time for oversqueamishness at
present. that the opportunity slips away. The
very period of life at which man chooses to ven
ture, If ever is so confined. that it is no bad rule
to preach up the necessity, in sucn instances, OF
little violence done to the feelings. and efforts
made in defiance of strict and sober calculation. "
