BeciszOaa Of Character.
From the New Jersey Mechanic

1t is but trusm to say that there
can be no success In lie without dec-
sion Of character La spite of De
Quincy's protest, we believe that John
Foster, in his celebrated essay did nut
exaggerate the importance Of that
quality, though we admit it is not
strictly moral power, and that the
most inexorable decision is much more
closely connected with physical differ
ences of temperament than with any
superiority of mind Decision of mird
like vigor of body, is gilt of GOD
1t cannot be created by human effort.
1t can only be cultivated 1t has heen
truly said that, as resolution, or strength
OF will is primary power in man,
there is no higher power that can give
birth to it, for this higher power would
necessarily involve the existence of The
lower that was to be produced. But
every man has the germ Of this quality,
which can be cultivated by favorable
circumstances and motives presented to
the mind and by method and order in
the prosecutions Of his duties or tasks,
he may by habit greatly augment his
will-power, and beget frame of mind
so nearly resembling resolution that it
would be difficult to distinguish between
the two. Here, as elewhere, i" the
ystatures of the perfect man" is attained
by slow gradation Of travail study.
effort and patience. The whole armor
cannot be put on at once. The first
victory will render the succeeding ones
easier, until the very comtat viii be
desired for the luxury of certain con
quest" The angel of martyrdom is
brother to the angel of victory"
But, whether Unborn or acquired,
decision is quality vitally important
TO MIN who would get on in the world
Even brains are secondary in impor-
tance to will. A vacillating man, no
matter what his abilities, is invariably
pushed aside in the race of life by the
man of determined will 1t is he who
resolves to succeed, and who at every
fresh rebuff begins resouluteIy again,
that reaches the goal. The shores of
fortune are covered with the stranded
wrecks Of brilliant ability, but who have
wanted courage, faith and decision, and
have therefore perished in sight of more
resoIute but less capable adveoturers who
succeeded IN making port. Hundreds
of men go to their graves in obscurity,
who have been obscure only because
they lack the pluck to make the first
effort and who, could they have Only
resolved to begin, would have astonish>
ed the world by their achievements aud
successes. The fact is as Sydney Smith
well said THAT in order to do any,
thing in this world that is worth doing
we must not stand shivering on the
bank, and thinking of the cold and
the danger, but jump in and scramble
through as well as we can. 1t will not
do to be perpetually calculating and
adjusting nice chances it did all very
well before the food, when man could
consult his friends upon an Intended
publication for a hundred and fifty
years, and then live to see its success
