ON THE EDUCATION OF CHILDREN.

'%IY Principles consist in treating Children us
Children—to make useful things a play to them, to
make plain what I teach them, and to teach them only what
they are able to conceive. My Method is equally simple : it
consists in leading. them to instruction by curiosity ; in con-
cealing from them, under that allareMent, the idea of labour
and constraint ; and .in directing their very curiosity, by cer-
tain thoughts thrown in their way, and which we give them an
inclination of seizing. The most difficult is that of exciting
emulation without jealousy, and in that perhaps there is less
merit than good fortune, &c.—The writer of the above is in
want of a situation as GOVERNESS to two or three YOUNG
LADIES; her Terms not limited; misfortunes have induced
her to undertake a task which will be a motive for living. She
has been married, and finding the small income she possesses
too little to live in comfort and respectability, she is desirous
to exert her talents in taking the charge of and educating
Children. She professes to teach Drawing, Music, English,
Writing, and French, on the last new system.—The most re-
spectable references can be given, and letters directed, post
paid, to A. D., 5, Little 111arylebone-street, Portland-place,
will meet with immediate attention.
