Life is a continued battle, in which defeat is suffered more often than victory is won. A long its flinty paths the foot-prints of disaster are everywhere seen, and by the way-side are thickly strewed the graves of the fallen. N hy is it that so few succeed ? Why is the hope with which youth set out so often desolated, and the goal of ambition so rarely reached t The strife is too often commenced without pre paration for the straggle.
