THE GIRL FROM THE WORKHOUSE.--What haVe
we to t 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—n°t
young criminals as in a reformatory, but simply destitute
of means, and dependent upon those who undertake to teeell
them how in after years they may earn bread for their
selves and be of some use in the world. These children are
poor without blame; they cannot help having been borli
dependent upon parents unable, whether through misfor
tune or misconduct, to give them requisite support. Thei
cannot help their orphanhood. Still of the ago when ne'
ture makes them dependent upon adult help for mein'
tenance and education into the future, duties of their lives,
the charge of them, dropped from private hands, fell;
into those of the guardians of the poor, No young 0
can be rightly trained into a woman's sense of wort
and duty, under conditions that exclude all part in hole°
affections, all perception of the varied duties of family
life. Where nothing is done to cultivate into strength'
wholesome affections ; where washing is done by me"
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-weell
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
