' G . 4 TO TIIE ID17'01? 01' T1;1: NATIONAL REGISEIL 'ON THE MANNI;RS (IF THE RISING GENERA- Sin—Every feeling mini must with regret perceive • the daring and rebellions spirit that prevails in the youth not only this country. but also those on the Conti ;neut. -The eonsequenees of this spirit unless subdued, ningt inevitably pro .e of a very serious nature. Ire •rnendous must he the fat:: of the youth who chews this untoward and rufrattory disposition. He begins his ,raireer by flying in t'.e face of his masters ; he continues iit be doing the same to his parents ; he then proceeds to offend the laws of his country, and concla:`,es by violating the laws and ccminaidmonts of Lis God.— *The principle is-1112 same, though it varies in its object owed• is directed to different ends. This want of subanliation is Sufficient to excite al : general alarm. particularly when we eoroertplatc and .-alsodler at the drzadful increase of crimes of every • description, and chiefly that of forgery. The Sessions in the Metropoli , , and the Assizes in our different •rmintries. exhibit a melancholy list of juveniie, nny nEm tile offenders. `But be those of' a well-rerzulatecl mind, masters, 40 tors, and govrmesses, if conscientious in the dischame of their duty, will be remarried with esteem, and ,justly corridered as beIIer.LVICH'S to their eoult.y ; fur their patient and persevering exertions, the foundation of the fut..ire happiness of their pupils is laid. They are -in fact, taco pareltum ; and any grateful youth xvii stew them a,: such. It is a narrow and contracted no tion, and false in its princiisle, to assert, that when instructors are paid by the parents of the children, all ceases on their part, and that o 1 their off spring, Paytneat by no means cancels the oblization ; ifirc the debt of gratitude can never be sufficiently paid to those who have toiled and laboured in the arduous ^nd too often thankless task of endeavouring to en lii 'ilea the rising generation. and rescue it from har oarism and igno , atice. I know not a more irksome profession than that of a school-toaster. whether public or private. It is that which is (art has been remarked on a late trial by an eminent Counsel) perhaps pro duc;ive of most benefit to the Public and of least benefit t 7 the professor ; for he has to struggle against pride, obstinacy; and ignorance, withont any material pro sped of * fortune or of' flute. I fad the school-master and sanol-mistress merely to attend to instruclion alone, their labour would be greatly diminished-, boa they arc. amfi)rtunately doomed to sustain the aggravatlng of daring and refractory spi•its, which spurn their au thority, and treat them with contempt. And ici: v an d .cffrontery are arrived at a formi.lable pitch, and I am slet.ply aoncorned to say it, even amon4 young females, f..ont whom wo naturally expect mildness and gentle res.. the prorr characteristic of their sex. If the father is thus negligent of his duty to his son, the food and foolish mother is equally so towards her daughter, the boortiing school who, too often, las received an education far beycnd her sphere in life. 'Who, perhaps, ere she has reached her ID.II year, is ashered into the drawing-roam, where she is taught, to the admiration of he:. mania (got secret disgust of her more discerningfriends), with unaoking confidence to imitate the fire lady, stare every one out of count enance, and, as Dean Swift has humorously remarked, actually, by her boldness anti effrontery, run down the As the education of youth was formerly ton much neglected, it is now carried to the contrary extreme. I Aim by no means as advocate fir keeping the lower or d.trs of society iiijuniuus, and:old:ling them to reamin without ary sort of education ; but surely that edura km. should be given to them which is suitable to the sphere of life in which they are likely to move, and in vhich the hand of Divine Providence has been pleased to place them. Too refined an - education is highly in jurious to those, who have received it ; for it sets them abort themselves, and teaches them to despise the htim• ble situation of their in sjurlging and ill ncloived parents. I once witnessed this absurdity at a little pub lic house at which I stopped, on the road from Rnms gate to Margate. Little Miss brought in my refresh ments, splendidly and elegantly dressed, with her hair en papilioles ; she then hastily ran up stairs to attend Cie summons of her musk-master; the door, through the vanity of the mother, being left open, that I might hear the dull-.t sounds of this sl,:ugliter of beer and cider. Sounds I certainly heard, but they were not those of harmany. To complete her accomplishments, d awing was not omitted. Specimens of her correct nets in that elegant art were in profusion hung round Cie roam in costly gill frames. In one piece you might be delighted with the view of houses resembling the le tning tower of Pisa, with chimneys quite perpendi cular ; and in another the leaves of trees all bearing the same way, which gave you an accurate idea Of a a inn at sea, without the artist having been at the trouble of representing angry and tenyestuuns waves. If the results ofsoch en ethic 'non be nut absurd and ridiculous in the extreme, it will be a nutter of asto stiehment and wonder to. Ir. Editor, your hutull. Servant, Cvlson. Tilt 'NATION AT, Rrc 7.:41Tr.n. CONSPIRACY A VALENCIA. A full statement has been made public of the par ticulars of this plot, ‘vith the names of the conspirators and an account of their executitn. Col. Vidal, their leader, had raised themselves trout the ranks. Twenty four hours were allowed the pri.onnrs to make their de fence, which is a mere mottor of corm, for n' defimee is ever listened to ; and the da7 after, all the thirteen were condemned to he hanged ; but the executioner, who is a poor slim fellow, with too much teling for his employment, gave notice he was ill, in consequence of his having strangled a fether, son, sou-in law, and two cousins, the same week. He was asked if he could hang one? He answered yes ; so Vidal was fixed upon, be hanged up by the side of their fellow conspirator. The mode of execntion in Spain is as :;arbaro.is as it is fatiguing to the executioner. He places the head of the culprit between his own thighs. and on the signal's being given, they Loth swing off together, the Milner sitting a earlitburchon, on the shotildora of the latter — he then twists the body round and round with the utmost velocity, at the same time kicking violently with hi, heels on the breast and lungs of the criminal, and raising himself up and down (as one does ni a hard trot) tainerease the weight of the hanging► man. All this the Spaniardc assert is to put the unhappy wretch the some." cast of hit( misery. 'I he moment the hangman ' throws himself off tviih the criminal, all the spectators take off their hats, 2114 be2,in raying Ave Marius for this soul 4 f the dying wan, which continue all the while that the executioner is twisting and twirling, and swinging and jumping. Vidal. when brought out to his execution, was No emaciated by fever, as to be scarcely able to support himself; but just before he wa► turned off, being called a traitor to his country by the 11uuk who attended him, he started, raised his head with a sort of souvulsive effort, and looking the Nlonk in tl.o fiwe, steunly exclaimed, "'Traitor to my country—Never, never —1 have been too 1444 to her, for mat I BUIZGESS'S F.SSIV•i:Cr4 OF ANCIIOVIF.A. trAatutnerat, 107, ti - titssii, Cr , tiNLlt or 1111: EAVOY 1.0):I/ON.
