THE GIRL FROM THE WORKHOUSE.—What have
we to r how for the thirty thousand a year spent on the
teaching of the young in workhouses ? Instruction without
education. Next to nothing in the case of boys, Worse
than nothing in the case of girls. There the girls are—net
young criminals as in a reformatory, but simply destitute
of means, and dependent upon those who undertake to teach
them how in after years they may earn bread for them-
selves and be of some use in the world. These children are
poor without blame ; they cannot help having been born
dependent upon parents unable, whether through misfor-
tune or misconduct, to give them requisite support. TheY
cannot help their orphanhood. Still of the age when na'
ture makes them dependent upon adult help for main"
tenance and education into the future duties of their lives,
the charge of them, dropped from private hands, fall°
into those of the guardians of the poor. No young gir
can be rightly trained into a woman's sense of work
and duty, under conditions that exclude all part in home
affections, all perception of the varied duties of faniil9
life. Where nothing is done to cultivate into strength,
wholesome affections; where washing is done by 1:03-
chinery, where cooking is done upon a great system having
nothing in common with the pot on the cottage fire, and
where the thriftless vicious talk of the elder ne'er-do-weel°
of their sex is common in their ears, girls are ill bred into
the power of self-help. They leave such a place with little
sober thought of becoming useful earnest happy wives.
They must come back as their lives draw to a close, to live
again upon the rates. The number of girl"
s who do so re'
turn is twice that of the boys.—Dickens All the Year
Bound:,
