From the Ladies' Magazine
FEMALE EDUCATION.

EXTRACT FROM A LETTER TO THE EDITOR.
Mrs HALE,-I noticed with peculiar
pleasure, in your October Number, an
appeal to the phiIanthropic of the other
sex, for equal facilities in the acquisition
of knowledge. There IS no SUBJECT on
which ! feel SO deep an interest as that Of
female education, in all its bearings and
when l see writer express herself with
such noble fearlcssness in so good a
cause, she has the best sympathies oi my
heart. ! would say to her, 60 forward in
earnest effort to enlighten your sex, and
the gratitude Of many shall cheer you on
y0uf way.
Much has been said Of the superior
privileges Of woman in this enlightened
age, with regard to education. But not
until recently, has il been even hinted al
that these privileges have been overrated.
She has, as is true, in some instances the
advantage Of knowing what would make
her useful and happy, and Of seeing the
desired good almost wthen her reach but
her energies are wasted in unavuiing
efforts. Why must woman be denied to
drink Of the deep fountain Of knowledge,
and to experience tho rich delight il in
fuses into the mindi What a charm
would il throw around her otherwise dull
and monotinous cares what blessed
light would it give TO irradiate her path
and beguile her sorrows! Trifling as are
my own acquisitions, feel now, while
rocking my babe in his cradle, and at
tending to the wants Of two other little
praitlers, an unspeaknble gratitude that i
can now and then sweeten my tolls by the
pleasures Of reading and reflection, Of
imagination and composition and ! think
can form some faint idea Of the mine Of
wealth and enjoyment she must possess,
whose powers Of mind have been srien-
sirefy cultivated. With the blessing of
God, those treasures shall yet be mine
though years Of toll and self-deniai be
the sacrifice,
