MATERNAL EDUCATION.

The responsibility which is incurred by
every mother imPeratively calls upon her 10

good and rational beings. This is not 10 be
done by merely sending them TO school for in.
struetion. Education must be continued at
home, or otherwise ITS most important re-
suits are left TO chance, and il mainly dc pends
upon accident or circumstance whether the
child becomes vicious or yirtuous. All per-
sons may not have the power or the opportu-
nifty to direct the infant mind with sufficient
steadiness and judgment 10 produce certain
effects. IL Is much more within the ability of
mother TO make her children good tempet-
ed. and 70 endow them with cheerfulness and
contented dispositions but even in this, with
the best intentions, she may fail from wan,
OF understanding the means. IL is, however.
IN the power Of all mothers-thc learned and
unlearned. the rich and the poor-to have
the most decided influence on the moral
character Of their children, and TO make
mem Nirtuous members OF society. To this
end children must DO educated by example

of life and breath, and heart and SOUL
Her beauty was of The true mortal stuff,
composed of smiles, and tears, aud
hopes, and wishes, and regrets. She
was being TO be loved, not as we love
Il picture, on account Of the art of It's
design and the glory of its coloring, but
by the external enchantment of syunpa
thy.
How this metamorphos;s had been pro-
duced on the portrait which he had car
ried abroad with him in his stripping
heart it would be vain to enquire. The
mind however is never at rest nor any
more than the body does it permit what
it imbIbes or swallows to be so. The
idea as well as the substance acted upon
by the powers ofna,urc soon hangs its
form and is turned into food-or poison.
Antoine arrived IN the valley of Ros.
signOl at the same season Of the year in
which he had quilted il and so little
appearance Of change did he observe
that in winding through the knots of
willows by the side of the stream, in his
approach to the houses he was almost
tempted to doubt whether his absence
had been any thing more than a dream.
Ills reception, however by the villagers
soon convincee hIm of the reality of h,s
travels. News was eagerly demanded
OF the world, but he could tell little to
interest or satisfy them. They ware still
busy with the conspiracy of Marshall
Blron under H.IV Of the promise Of mar
rage given by that prince to Mademois-
ellie d'Estragues. They thought that
the mayor of Paris was the author of all
the disturbances in the kingdom, and
that Cardinel Richeieu was prosecuted
ny the proies,ants for his religious opin-.
ions. Antoine at last, so great was the
majority against him vas ashamed of
his ignorance and wished he had never
left the valley of RossignoI, where they
knew 50 much better what was done
IN the world than they who had been in
the world themselves.
Blu, Julie She was a year older.
Her voice had sunk about the millionlh
part of a tone; her eyes we're more in.
tensly blue her figure was rounded into
mould, that made Antn;ge ask indig-
nantly how he could have immayined
her former benuty to be perfection.
Was she still as coldIy lovely! The
village said Yes; but Antoine swore u
great oath to himself-No the attributes
OF his ideal Julia he 80 lavishly bestowed
upon the original, that the two we're in
extrlcably blended i'm his imaglaa,ion.
Her very scorn had something offender
ness to his love-sick mind; her loud laugh
made his heart quake and tremble like
the atmosphere in which it sounded; and
the flash of her sunny eye fred his
thoughts in such manner, that, as if
they had been trains Of powder, the
young soldier sometimes ran into the
woods, to leave, if possible, himself be-
hind, and avoid the explosion.
To be continued.

The spirit hss severed its earthly chain.
Fond sister. your last loved duties are dome
She has gone to her rest with tho setting sun
Both set, and both shall in glory riso,
And both shall irradate yonder skies:
But your human feeling will rise and swell,
And the heart must its weight Of anguish tell
! wonder not at your grief's deep power
Those tics have strengthened since infancy d
hour.
wonder not at your burning sighs,
As the scenes of the past on memory rise;
Long, innocent days that your childhood knew,
When like blossoms Of beauty together ye grew,
The mingled hopes, the smiles and tears,
Together yeve known in your opening years.
The blended feelings that long have twincd,
As new light descended in each young mind -
These rush on memory, but she is gono,
And ye in your sadness will still live on.
