EDUcATIoN OF FEMALEs.-A young
lady in acquiring an education, should
strive to cultivate those faculties, and
obtain those accomplishments, which the
character of the time demands. Hence
you will observe that the greater advance
Of refinement, and the improved spirit OF
the times demand more eXertions in or
der to 90 the whole round of the scien-
ces. Once it was sufficient in our coun-
try for young lady to know how to read
and write; but these two acquisitions
would not now entitle her to that stand
ing which she would covet The truth
is, all of us, male and female, have dO:Iblc
the quantity to learn that our parents
had; and when see a vast amount of
necessary knowledge, ,and prolific press,
| am almost tempted to give up in des-
pair. But experience teaches one that
no person is capable of Judging of his a
bilities to obtain n given amount of
knowledge till he has made an attempt.
/ apprehcnd every young lady who
lays claim to any ambition, will feel de-
sirous Of a general acquaintance with the
literature OF the day. A love Of reading
of course should be cultivated. A thou
sand reasons might suggest for Great
ing love Of books. They pass off an
evening agrecably; they beguile the
idle hours that every young lady has;
they destroy relish for scandal by
giving nobler purposes to the thoughts;
they make home pleasant and keep
young ladies' from the street; and often
they furnish topics Gr conversation,
comparison of thoughts, reviews of 9TH
ers' opinions, and materials for further
improvement. But | need not stop to
bestow a eulogy on books. should
only labor to prove what every body
would grant without any proof There
is, however, great danger that young
lady may not read the right kind Of
books.-There is danger of pedantry, of
affectatioD, Of elevation above the duties
Of life, of engrossing too much upon the
time due to other occupations, and above
