As the busy season is now approaching, and by a glance at our advertising columns it will be perceived that our merchants are preparing for a heavy Spring trade, we believe we will be conferring a benefit on the public generally by publishing an ar ticle taken, from Freed ley’s Treatise on Business. The following article was writ ten by our fellow-citizen, John Grigg, whose name has become a household word, throughout the country, for his strict in tegrity and open-handed liberality. The rules he has laid down for our in struction have been bis guide and study through life, and the proud position he now occupies has fully proved their truth. Every parent who would consult the interests of his son should place a copy in his hands, and if faithfully adhered to suc cess will be certain. —Monitor Extract from Frtedley's Practical Treatise on Businas, published h<J Zippiucott «£- f.b. John Grigg, of Philadelphia, the foun der of the well-known publishing house of Grigg &-Elliott, and G. E. & Co., of which JdpsSrs. Lippincott, Grambo & Co. are the worthy successors, has favored us with some points, which his experience hits taught him it is important for men com mencing business to observe. His life, it may be remarked, is another encouraging ciample of what integrity, united to tal eht, energy, and good fortune, may hope to accomplish under our free institutions. Beginning the world an orphan farmer boy, he has accumulated, as public opin ion says, a fortune, and though rich, he has shown that he understands what few rich men ever have understood—-that is, the art of using money wisely, as well as getting it. In a conversation with him the Othfer day; he expressed the opinion that endorsing is a cause of one-half the fail ures in business, and stated the remarka ble fact that he never had asked a man to endorse'a note fdr him in his life. One great reason of his success, I have been informed, , among many others, Was his ■power of inspiring confidence—confidence in his honesty and ability. Many of his customers dealt with him for years with out once inquiring the price'of an article. He says of the complete business man, as Gen Butler said in his eulogy of Oalh >un of the statesman, “he should have ini an eminent degree Hie self-sustaining power of intellect. He must .posseSs energy and enterprise, with perseverance and great mental determination. To inspire confix dence, which after dll is the highest oj earthly’•qualities, is a mystical something whicliis felthutcannot be described.” But to his opinion in his own language. 1. Be industrious and economical*— Waste neither time nor money in small and useless pleasures pud indulgences If the young ‘can ‘he induced to begin to save, the moment they enter, on the paths of life, the way will ever become easier to them, and they will not fail to attain a Competency, ahd) that without Jenying themselves any, of the real necessaries and comforts of life. Odr people are certain ly among the most improvident and extra vagant oh the face of the earth. It is enough to make the Merchant of the old school who looks hack and thinks what Economy, Prudence and Discretion he hod to brings to bear on his own business, (and; which are in fact the basis of all success ful enterprise,) start back in astonishment to look $t the ruthless yaste and extrava ganpe of the ago and people.

The business man miart the helm and steer 'his own ship; In early life every one should Uiink|for himself. A-man's talebtaew:ily«r brought out un til Jm is own resources. ' If in every difficulty he has only to ran to his principal, and- then implicitly obey the directions ,he may re ceive, he will never; acquire that aptitude of perception, and that promptness of de cision, and that firmness of purpose which are absolutely necessary to those who hold important stations. A certain degree of independent feeling is essential to Ibe full development of the intellectual character. B. Kemembep that punctuality is the mother of confidence. It is not enough that the Merchant fulfils his engagements, he must do what he undertakes precisely at the time, as well as in the way he agreed to. The mutual dependence of merchants is so great, that their engagements like a chain, which, according to the law of Phy sics ,is never stranger than its weakest link, are oftoner broken through the weak ness of others than their oWn. But a prompt fulfilment of engagements is not only of the utmost importance,' but it ena bles, others to meet their own engagements promptly. It is also the best evidence that the Merchant has his affairs well or dered—-his means at command.,' bis forces marshalled, and “ everything ready for ac tion”—in short that he knoip bis own strength. This it is which inspires confi dence, as much perhaps as the meeting of the engagement 4. Attend to the, minute of the busi ness, small things as well as. great. See that the store is opened early, goods clean ed up, twine and -mails picked pp,:and all ready for action. A young man should consider capital, if Jie have it, or as he may acquire it, merely as tools with which he is to work, not as a substitute for the necessity of labor. It is often the case that diligence in employments of less con sequence is the most successful introduc tion to greater enterprises. Those make the best officers who" have served in the ranks. We may say of Labor, as Cole ridge said of Poetry, it is its own sweet est reward. It is the best of Physic. 5. Let the young Merchant:! remember that selfishness is the meanest of vices, and it is the parent of a thousand more. It not only interferes both with the means and with the end of acquisition.--—not only makes money more difficult to get, and not worth having when it is got, bfit it is nar rowing to the mind and to the heart. Sel fishness keeps a shilling so close to the eye that it cannot see a dollar beyond.”— Never be narrow and contracted in your views. Life abounds in instances of the brilliant results of a generous policy. Be frank. Say what you mean. Do what you say. So your friends shall know and take it for granted that you mean to do what is just and right. 6. Accustom yourself to think vigor ously. Mental capital, like pecuniary, to be worth anything, must be well invested —must bo Tightly adjudged and applied, and to this end, careful, deep and intense thought is necessary if great results are looked for. :!■ 7.
