Address read before the Marietta Actidemyt Young Ladies and Gentlemen, pupils" of ' .the Marietta Academy: _ Your worthy Principal has done me the honor to invite me to deliver to you an address upon this the opening of the second part of your session. It is With great pleasure that 1. comply with his request. Many of you were formerly my pupils. To see your familiar faces fie fore me and to speak - to you from the platform brings to mind the many pleas ant days we spent - together in old Le: cast Seminary. Just one year ago, it was . ours to meet morning after morning, to gather around the stoye and engage in cheerful, lively chat, and,together to readxandtwrite, and . cipher., Those days have passed, but they have loft our hearts filled with pleasant memories widish will never be 'effaced. , We will never forget out Crystal. Gem, our ride to Millersville f and our closing exercis es ; nor, I wean, will some of you ever forget the Geography class, and the oat line maps. One year ago ! we were :to. but not all are here'now that were with to then ; two are absent. Theodore and Annie are - gone. They . have left this world with all its ,pleas ures and pains, their souls have gone in to the spirit land; their bodies rest,the one- in our own quiet cemetery; the' other, far in the distant west on the banks of the Mississippi. Theodore, the noble boy, Annie, the gentle, the beloved, no more shall meet us here, but deep in our hearts we cher ish their names and virtues, and while we remember Locust Hall, will we , re ineniberthem. You have met this evening, 'my young friends, to open again your school and to return to your .etudies,,after a. season of recreation. You have had a short respite from study; a vacation, aholiday, so delightful to all students ; but. the holidays are over, playtime ie pact, and the season of work has again returned, Let me ask your attention then to a . few remarks which I shall make by way of preparing your minds fur the work be- fore you. In thinking over subjects to find one for this occasion, so many come crowd ing upon my mind that 1 scarcely know which to select, se much is to be said and there is so little ability to say it, that I feel almost like giving up in de spair,, but that would not be in accord ance with the schoolboy's motto_:, at first. you don't succeed,;try, try again." This is a sithple; plain motto; easily un deret&A; yet how much Misdow is con centrated in how mach of the_success that has attended any and every man is in. consequence of obeying this little. in junction : try,. try again. Indeed—We may say this is the secret of all success. No greAt end was ever accOmplishedex cept by means. of patient, 4fersevering effort. In every undertaking, in every path of life obstacles present themselves in the way, threatening to impede our progress,if not_ to cane us to abandon our plans altogether. To win supcess in any vocation •we must make up 'our minds to meet diffibulties andimpedimeats. and meeting them, to overcome" them. He 'that enters upon any course of life with a timid shrinking spirit„ being .diseour aged at thoifirsi , appearance of diffsculti ties, will never achieve asy thing, his life. will be but a series of failures' from be ginning to end.

But do poi despair, try, try again ; there, is no excellence with out great labor, and Perseverance is always sure of its reward. He that would stand upon the top of the Alps and view the subliMe scenery' of S witzerland must. climb the Alps, step by step, over crags, and moils, and along many seemingly impassable pas sages, nor mind a few tumbles, and, bruis es on the way. 'Tie hard, hard 'Work, this climbing, bat how grand . is the re ward when once - the labor is accomplish ed. A certain Scottish chieftan when contending for independence and :the crown was so often beaten in battle that he well nigh despaired and was about to give up the ,strugglik; but as'he lay in a hut in which he had taken refuge,, look ing up to the ceiling he,saw .. a spider at tempting'tothrO4its weiiaeross from one joiktto - iinother, - six. tithes it tried and failed, it tried a seventh time, and succeeded. The Chief, moved by. ihis example of perseverance, roused himself collected his army again and made one more desperate effort 'and was successful, bis army was victorious, and his crown was won. So you, my dear young , friends, will find many difficulties, in your way while pursuing your`studies, Many' thing§ will be hard to understand, many hard to re- . Men3ber, but don't' be - discOuraged. Like the spider take fresh courage at every defeat and try again ; and though yen seerrito make no 'progress, though you seem to 'fOrget . one atiy what y'oll learned the day before, try again;'go over the lesson again and continue try- . ing and you will meet with success What at first seems dark and 'unintellig ible will become plea' and dimple,' - and What et.ffrit you could not remember willitecome fastebed in your rue - Movies . never to be forgotten. That which we gain by hard labor is 'always the most valuable. So in learnifig ; that which' we`learn hy'hard, icsg continued study always'doee lie ' the most good and re mains_ with us the longest. These 'difficulties,•tao," are necessary: If there were no difficulties to encoun-' ter, if everything were as plain as day 7,, light; your education would be worth: but very little ; neither your minds nor' your Character would become developed. It is difficulties and trials that make the' man, ttley call forth his spirit, his ener gy, and show what he le made of. The mind as well as the body grows by exer-' . vise; and it is the difficulties we meet with in our studies that furbish the exer cise for ofir' minds. Then again, your edneatiiings:designed to fit you for fu tare life, for acting well your parts as' men end *omen. ' through `life you will meet with diffiCulties, troubles and trials, which must be overcome by you or you will be overcome by them. By learning to overcome the difficulties in your lessons now, you will be the better prepared to overcome - these, greater dif ficulties whiCh will rise hereafter. Take this motto then for yours,," try . , try again;" act on it_ and you will succeed. Bat while thus preparing. for life on' . earth, do not forget that other. life be yond this world. - Prepare also, fee that. Only then are you rightly prepared for life on earth when yorl are prepared for life in heaven. The itirest,,the'oniy sure support in' life's trials is the love of Christ in the•heart - Seek his' favor and .loire, and then with youk studies you will • be"preiared for a useful 103 and a hap py death.
