hEoRGErowN INFANT School. We
were reminded Of the scene OF the lit
tie children crying in the Temple,
"liosanna to the Son of DaviG," at the
exhibition of the Infant School on Mon
day last, in the Methodist Protestant
Church, when children from 3 to !
years of age united their voices in sing
ing praises to God and the Lamb; and
II is recorded that the Lord said, "IIast
thou never read, that out of the mouth
of babes and suckings thou hast per-
icctcd praise"
The exercises commenced by singing
a hymn by the children; and after be-
ing asked what and whose house they
were in, and how they should behave
in Gods house, and answering very
correctly and satisfactorily, the Rev. .
Mr.. Wallace offered a short and appro-
pirate prayer to the Throne of Grace.
The little scholars were then examin-
ed and questioned on their acquain-
tance with the Holy Bible; many of
the prominent events of which, with the .
prophecies OF Christ, as recorded in
the Old Testament, they promptly adduc-
ed; and also in the New Testament, with
which they appeared quite familiar
much more so, than many whose heads
had been frosted by the SHOWS of many
winters.
The lessons in Astronomy, Gcogra-
ply and Natural History, were,
astonishing as it may appear, rccitcd
with the utmost accuracy, and to an
extent far beyond the belief of those
who have never witnessed such exhibit
ions. Examples in the four first rules Of
Arithmetic, were performed with great
correctness, and the numeraton and
tables repeated with a
promptncss and accuracy, not surpassed
by Students in any College in the
United States. When we reflect TINT
the children before us were from 9 to
I years old only; that some of them
had not been one month, others not
more than two quarters, and none so
long as one year at school, I've cannot
be silent We consider it work ap-
proved and aided by God, whose hand
is surely in this thing. Here, we are
persuaded, we may not only witness
the effects of human labor, but behold
the salvation of God. We heard chill
dran read, and spell in four syIablcs, as
well as we could do ourselves, proving
to all who were skeptcal that mt least
as much, if not great deal more, was
learned at Infant Schools, as at those
under the old plan. Why is it that pa
rents who profess and call themselves
who pray to be led into the
way oftruth, are SO backward in placing
their children where they are made ac-
quainted with the Bible, by which they
will be led into all truth?
. The exercises were closed by an
and feeling address from Mr..
appealing to the hearts of the
Christian congregation before him, to
patronize the Infant Institution in
Georgetown, and calling upon them to
do their duty to their children, to them
selves and to their God, and aid in feed
ing his lambs, UasAinston City Chron.

into this water and having filed bottle
with it, she told her eighbor, to keep il,
very carefully, and every time she ss~ "
her husband becoming angry, to fill her
mouth with it, "and | sure" said she,
she will never beat You while you have
the water III your mouth"
The woman thanked her ncighbor,
and did not fail TO do as she had told
her. She began to think that the old
woman was witch indeed, for during
eight days, while the water lasted, her
husband had not beaten her once. She
was much grieycd when she saw the
bottle empty, and went again to the old
lady, to beg her to ill it.
"lo on do not want it, said the lady
to her, ''this was some of the river
water that | said few words over,
which meant nothing" "But," said
the young woman, "this water has pre-
vented my husband beating me. -
Because" replied the other, "it pre-
vented you making your husband any
answer, for you could not speak while
you had 1t III your mouth. Go home,
ana when YOU see your husband Is dis
pleased, or out OF humor, instead of
making him angry by saying cross
things to him, be as silent as if your
mouth were full of water, and YOU Will
see that his anger will 90 away"
The young woman followed the old
lady's counsel, and succeeded by SO
doing; for her husband being no longer
conlradicted, lost the habit Of beng
angry, and always agreed with his wife,
whom he learned to love tenderly, as
soon as she had grown gentle and
patient.
