which his high destiny la fulfilled.
Strife is ths law of human excellence.
Juki as to the gladiatorial ring, be who

and develops a physical hardihood
ectlon which Wakes
him Invincible. So does this strife be
and muscular perfection
him invincible- So does
twee* nature and man develop Intel-
than that which shone about his brow,
when by the word of his power the
planets leaped Into space, and the h
morning stars sang together. This
luxuriant human posture, Eden, was
not tbe proper theatre for man, hla
objective associate in the perfection
of tbit glorious thought. Bo out of
the garden Adam went. No more
spontaneous fruits or flowers for him.
Tbe ground is cursed and ytelda but
to hla sweat and toil; and Adam
moved on through these to destiny
immeanuaVly higher and more glo
rious than any t'Jat could have await
ed him in the eternal shades cf Eden.
For while th<» accused man stood

tiny, attain their fullest perfection and.
the individual- character peaches the
ac|ge of human exqelleu’ae. It ia true
that in such a social statu virtue lb
not the common property, because
difilcuft. of acquiroment; this adds to
Its possesioa the element of merit.
Human merit ia m« Usurer not by what
man accomplishes, fiut by what he
ovencomes in accomplishing, apd as
no other social state present* sqcb
multiplied enticements to vice and ob
stacles to virtue, so no other state can
develop instances of such perfect full

To pursue tbtosqbjsf t in all its ram
ifications, would be tb introduce iq
th:s pis'*© a tunse of matter Imperti
nent to the occasion, uni would at the
same time extend thU Piscussioo be-
pond tbe limit which pro, rlgty assigns.
It; Iwiil therefore poM. on to x*y *
tew words to this youth of this com
munity tboe«, who witli Uieir own,;
are to assist in working but the des
tiny of cur State.
Your ways In lif£, my young fr>nis,
are not as were your fat bur's. Itose#'
do not lie thick In your pathway.
Prosperity does not with outstretched
arms rush forth to meet you on your
way. Virtue woes not vith Sipen
voice and Clrcean charm constraining
constraining your footsteps to her
bower. Tbe true, the honorable path-
fay to success In life ia steep and rug
ged and tortuous, and beset with dan
ger at every step, and he who disting
uishes himself by keeping therein,
must have a lions heart and be armed
at every pgint as was the fabled knight
of old, Who went forth to do battle
with the giant and tbe dragoon.
To k.upw your enemy and where he
to to- be fbunjai, are two important
steps towards defeating his purposes.
Know then that lurking within your
own boacmb are to be found your dead
liest fges. Avarice, foalousy, malice,
enVy. these are ao*ie of .the beads of
that Hydra monster which is ever on
ths alert to do you bans.
As most comprebenelve of vicious
element aud pernicious in its H^egts
upon the character^ let me caution
yon to strive against sordid selflabbee*.
The man whose thoughts^ deal
and aflectiohs find their limit wtt!
the circle of his individual interests,
never gofog beyond In axiapathj with
the joys or woeqof bis fellow mac, is
the rubbish which
mediocrity piles in the scales u> weigh
against merit, and are marks of un
gentle breeding. With brneay brow
and boasting words the braegartee- ks
to hide the craven in his heart. True
merlt-oeeds.no obtrusive art to bring
It Idto notice and its most attractive
trait Is its-modesty.
'Finally, youn« man venerate the
past as you gsze down the cellonede
of time, every column of which re
flects the glowing virtues of y< ur fath
ers, let tb** light and beant^ there
from, which must chatn your admin*

days of fastingand feasting, of festivi-
