and it was with much difficulty he was prevailed

• •to poo. cotioren, in our Aar.ta I _nstitutions, a

active life, not merely v.ith robust constitutions,
but 'with tbe knowledge of sonic useful art that
might render them valtillle members of sneety.
—lt is a subject of saycasui to the coldAlonded
Writer, to think of cc:telling the girls to fie
dresses or cooks, or to instruct theta in any of
the arts that would make them valuable servants
in a family when they arrived at a 'proper age.---!
The Public will judge between ifs. Look at the
helpless decrepid objects now tuned nut of these
eleemosynary Schools : and let us fairly ask our-
selves, whether jo,tioe is done to the objects of
one protection in not better quklifying them for
their future pUrsoits. ‘Ve are persinttle,l that by,
a eery simple and practicable arrangement, the
thousands of children educated by ben'ev'olence in
this city, might be rendered most
,trttly useful,
and that 'without incurring the charge of futal
policy, which is imputed tn' the saggestion. We
love received, slave_ the publication of the are
tide, several letters on the subject front Literal
and feeling coriespondents, who concur with its
in thinking that much praclicahle good might be
be. obtained by enlarging the course of instruc-
tion given to children in Glariry Schools, and
their letters contain several salutary hints fur car-
rying the selosme into execution.
