heve, however, that there is more liability to err
especially in the article OF behaviour the favour
able side.
1t is important to remark, that the character oi
a student often changes during his continuance al
college Some, who begin well, end i'll; but a
larger number, who were once cuipable, reform
and reach the highest standing. If parents, then
observe that their IONS doing well, their appro-
baton and advice may preserve them in we'll doing
II DEFICIENCIES or faults are noted, the youth SHOULD
be exhor,ed and encouraged TO repair them To
reform is perfectly practicable, and often occurs
If diligence in study has been greater than
fault is attributed: the youth is unfortunate not
blameable.
That obscurity may rest on the following re-
port it may be mentioned, that No. 1, No. 2, and
3, in scholarship, denote many degrees OF merit
not comparative, but absolute: l. e. the hrst In
his class may not reach the assumed standard oil
excellence, but be marked No 2, though no one
has higher grade. No. /, denotes a high de-
gree OF merit; No. 2, medium share OF merit
and No. B, standing lower than medium. When
student is distinguished in either of these grades,
the word distinguished is added to the number.
And as distinctions in the article OF scholarship
themselves various, this variety is also marked;
thus, if a student is marked No. l, distinguished
ID he is considered as holding the highest stan
ding. II he is marked No. l, distinguished q, }
be holds degree less emneat, anu though No. l,
marks more than a medium standing, yet not so
high as No. l, distinguished (3.)
In the articles OF behaviour and industry, No. /,
denotes exemption from censuIe; Nos. and 3,
imply different degrees of censure. Where the
conduct of the student has been exemplary in Ell
ther of these articles, he is marked No. l. dstin-
guished.

To live with fame,
The Gods allow to many, but to die
With equal lustre, is a blessing Heaven
Selects from all the choicest boons of fate,
And with sparing hand on few bestows.
GLODerS LeOnidas
The sentiment so well expressed by the
poet In the above lines, has received a new
and beautiful illustration in the deaths of
THOMAS JEFFERSON and john ADAMS.
10 them Heaven has extended this choic-
est boon, to close their lives with lustre
equal to that which has, at any period, dis
tnguished their career of active usefulness.
/ They have fulfilled the common destiny,
and descended to the common grave but
the cannon of "a states saluted their spirits
as they passed from time to eternity and
the swell Oft nations gratitude was the la
test sound which broke upon their dying
ears. Imagination could not have conceiv-
ed more beautiful cousummation of hu-
man glory. The annals of philosophy and
OF military herolsm record no closing scene
so full OF hallowed splendor. There is none
to which posterity will turn its glance with
such wonder and admiration. Surprising
tile nctlons OF poetry, this extraordinary CO.
incidence OF events must be handed down
by the historian accompanied by the strong
est evidence to rescue it from the scepti-
clsm OF distant ages, and give to it the in
disputable character oftruth.
A single signer of the Declaration ofIn-
dependence now only remains to connect
that glorious band with posterity. A short
time, and he must follow his compatriots.
Would that his sun may also 90 down in
equal glory! He stands among us males
tic in his loneliness; sublime relic of the
virtue and patriotism of past age, spared
by time, that we may yet gaze on his We
nerable form little longer, before we are
called on to lay him with his brother sa ges
in the tomb. Then we may gather the
bones of all these patriarchs into one grave,
and erect over it mausoleum, on which
might be written a challenge to all ages
and climates of the world, to produce its RI
val in moral grandeur--to exhibit tomb
more pregnant with instruction in all the
duties which render man estimable and
useful to his fellow men.
