Excerpt from A Life's Decision Lils The Author published lately, under the title "Per Crucem ad Lucem, the Result of a Life, " two volumes which contain a collection of treatises all tending to the illustration of one subject, whose study had been imposed upon him as an inexorable duty, rather than self-chosen with any literary purpose.

I think, therefore, that I am right in calling it "A Life's Decision, " for it was not a single act, but the determination of a whole future course. Again, to uproot a tree when the fibres through which it draws nourishment from its parent soil have found their congenial mould, and the tree itself has reached its full growth, requires no common force. I have endeavoured to describe in the following narrative the nature of that force, and to note its successive heavings.
