One hoars on all sides comp'aints of the ir.sufficiency, uuskilif ilctsa. and want of reiiahility ot mochauios. We need this competition which pu's down not the wage*, but the incompctcncy of the mechanics. The tend ney of the times points to an Aggregation of numbers in towns and ciiies * every new cit.lz nis cither a m r chant, a lawyer, or a physician, for no other avocation scarcely can got a foot hold or a livtlihntd in town at present To the obe< rvnht man this is not a tigu ot the luaithy industrial pro-prets of tho country. The three avocations up. ken of, though useful in their way, do by no means oontrif ute to tho pro ductive tes uic-’s and prosperi'y of a Si tarn. Ouiy two classes in s ciety cre ate wealth—the farmer and the nucbau k , uud ti" Ft tc is truly wealthy aud iudcpeiidont that has not a populniou pr prt 1 y divided le ween the two. What a contrast is presented by the two B'ate?—Ohio aud Virginia. The pnpnliliori of the latter is mainly agri cn t irai, th»t of the firmer both egri cural and m'chanual; V r„i ia is one of the oldest State of the Union, Ohio is iwe conipnr tvdy young; yet today Ohio is fifty jcaifi in advance of her older sister in mechouioal skill, energy, enterpri'u and we-.t’th. The prosperity i.f the* Northern un i Western Btatcs is mainly duo to the eocourag men* given to the mechanic,.who 'here ti .(is every j where an ample li.dd for his skill and ! energy. It is no light etimu'us to him i that tie biiugs up his family in n re spectald ■, though net tile higl os', sphere of society j and bo has betoro him the a’t aetive example of very many men, ouee mechanics and poor live him -il*', who by .their own energy have risen io ho head of vast man* aeturing es tablishment. To open such a f wtunc to (he South ■rn youth and Southdn mechanic, all that is necessary is lo e'evale the Me chanic in the social ecale, and mat young men cast aside all morbid pride, end u e vigorously for tin ir own and t' eir cnun'iyV good the nerve and mus cle God lias le-towed upon him. It is a sound maxim, respect your-clf, und others will learn to respect you. At all eve its, I should consider tlio lot of an honest skil ful mechanic, whose r-err ic< 8 are always in demand and well p id fr, far preferable to the weary, hope-des troying life which the young lawyer or and dor must otlen drag out, until suc cess smiles upon him, aud then perhaps until after all power of cuj ij mcut is fled 1 have spnkoo of what I oonceive to be the prin opal objection agsiu.lt young ' nion fallowing a mechanical avocation, mmclv— false pride. This i* not how ever tn <K:ly drawback with the®.— Ai> impedeuici.t ia her le s difficult to overcome, is the g nc-r.l desire to get alot g with as little labsr as prgsible, and then, when the task is once begun, to ohange to something else. It is uu dtn tblo that we 8( ldom observe young men stick long to anything, whether as student* clerks, planters <*r in *oy other ! pursuit, though it is eti lent that with | out extraordinary persevcrcnce no man ran ever become a successful mechaniio or rxoi l in uiiytliug ebo. This very general trait, some attrib ute to the climate, 1 should rather ai sign the cause of it, to a defective tiain ing in early Inylo and.
