view is as true now as it was then, and
is perhaps as little felt. The office
needs in itself TO be greatly raised in the
opinions Of men. Its widespread inhu-
ence should be more deeply reflected
upon. 1t has been our schools that have
given Joy to the fire sides Of New Eng
land. They have impaired intelligence
TO our statesmen and wisdom to our laws.
Even as they are they have produced an
effect upon the character Of the people.
The work OF the schoolmaster is every
where; others have worked upon matter,
he has worked upon mind He has in
iluenced the spirit, and guided the char
acter. Give me- says one, the schools
and the school books, and by and by
will have both the churches and courts
OF law The teachers Of our land are
moulding out the future destinies of the
people. They are putting their stamp
and seal to the future character Of the
nation. They are turning the wheels
which will presently move coming gene
ration. Surely then there is no office on
earth which is more important.
No one should teach for mere money.
Taking a school is something more than
a matter of bargain. The work should
be entered upon as the ministry is enter
ed upon, with a feeling Of sanctity.--
The teacher must teach, and because
he is thus fulfilling high duty. The
community should give liberal remune-
ration to teachers; but still the teacher
should not keep his eye on the silver
and gold. A higher purpose, a more
lofty end, should stir his heart. When
the old Athenian found that his armOr-
bearer served him for money, he ex-
claimed, "Give me back my buckler,
since you serve me for that, you are no
longer worthy TO bear it," So we may
say Of that teacher who cares for no
more than what he can get.
On the part Of the public the office OF
teacher should be respected. The in
teligent and virtuous should place the
teacher on his true elevation. Ills vo-
cation should be treated with the rever-
ence and dignity it deserves. Perhaps
the reason why there has been a deiic-
iency in this respect, is that the mos: i'm
porlant part Of instruction has been SC
much neglected. If ii be so, then the
community place noble charge under
his care, and while he watches over the
moral and spiritual nature, they should
give proportionable respect TO his Of
fee, and honor to his sacred trust.
\ Again, no Just compensation should bt
thought too great 10 secure the labors Of
competent minds. We ought to have
men Of the first talent and Of high mora
,rorth. Money is a small consideration
in comparison with this Let every pa
rent then have an open hand. " We
would have teachers throughout the
country of the frmest principles ant
most elevated minds, the community
must be liberal"

The QUEEN AND THE QuAKEREss.-
In the autumn of 1918, her late majesty
queen Charlotte visited Bath, accompa-
MED by the princess Elizabeth. The
waters soon effected such respite from
pain in the royal patient that she propos-
ed an excursion to a park Of some celeb.
rty in the neighborhood, then the estate
OF rich widow, belonging to the society
Of Friends. Notice was given Of the
queens intention, and message return
ed that she would be welcome. Our
ilIustrious traveller had, perhaps, never
before held any personal intercourse
with a member Of the persuasion whose
votaries never voluntarily paid taxes to
"the man George, called king 10y the
vain ones" The lady and gentleman
who were to attend the august visitsnts
had but feeble ideas Of the reception to
be expected. 1t was supposed that the
Quaker would, at least say, thy highness,
or madam. The royal carriage arrived
at the lodge Of the park, punctual to the
appointed hour. No preparations ap.
peared to be made, no hostess or domes
tic stood ready to greet the guest. The
porter's bell was rung; he stepped forth
deliberately, with his broad brimmed
beaver on, and unbendingly accosted the
lord in waiting, with "whu,'s thy will.

Go 10 your mistress, and say the queen

man, "needeth not, have no mistress

pecteth thine; walk inn The queen and
princess were handed out, and walked
up the avenue. AT the door Of the house
stood the plainly atlired Rachael, who
without even courtsey, but with a
cheerful nod, said, "How's the do,
iriendi am glad to see thee and thy
daughter, l wish thee well! Rest and
refresh thee and thy people before show
thee my grounds"
What could be said to such n person?
Some condesc ensions were attempted :,
implying that her majesty came, not only
TO view the park, but to testify her es-
TEEN for the society TO which mistress
Mills belonged. Cool and unawed, she
answered. "Yea thou art right there.

guest through her estate. The princess
Elizabeth noticed in the hen-house, a

her; and expressed a wish to possess
some Of these rare fowls, imagining tha,
Mrs. Mills would regard her wish as a
law; but the Quakeress quietly remark
ed, with characteristic evasion, "They
are rare as thou sayest; but if any are
to be purchased, in this land, or in any
other countries, know few women like
lier than thyself TO procure them with
ease. Her royal highness more plainly
expressed her desire to purchase some

TEACHERS OF YoUTH.-ln Mr.. Wa
terston's Address before the Anne rican
Institute of Instruction, on the moral and
spiritual culture IN early education, we
find the following excellent remarks re-
lating to the Office and qualifications Of
a tcac her Of youth:--
"From what has been said it will be
seen the Office of teacher is a high Of
flee. This is true. There is probably
no Office on the face Of the earth more
important. The celebrated DIR. South
in sermon preached as hong ago as
1850, says, 81 look upon an able we'll
principled schoolnaster as one Of the
most meri,orious subjects, in any prin-
ce's dominions. Nay, / take school
masters to have more powerful innu-
ence upon the spirits Of men than preach
ers themselves; forasmuch as they have
to deal with younger and tenderer minds,
and consequently have the advantage of
making the deepest Impressions. II be-
ing seldom found that the pulpit mends
what the school has marred." This

A young lady, Of wealthy connection,

ed, except in the affections Of bereaved
friends. IL sometimes the lightness and
extravaganza Of women are censured; if
their weakness and follies are magniiied, +,
we owe it to justice to record their vir-
tues, their humanity, their noble efforts
in the cause of charity and religion
They are at present the pillars Of the
church, the patrons and protectors OF
most of our charitable institutions
Nothing subdues their energy in good
cause; they brave the "peltings Of the
pitiIess Storm" the dangers of disease,
nay, even the terrors OF death, rather
than fail when beckoned on to the fulfil
ment of good deeds. Mahomet contend
ed that women have no souls. Had he
allowed them the privileges to which
they were entitled by nature, and their
influence in society, he would have dis,
covered that their souls are of more
pure and ETHEREAL character than those
of the "lords of creation" 1t is one Of

BEAUTIFUL EXTRACT.

We copy from the New-York Com
mercial Advertiser the following extract
from a new work, entitled GA visit to
Constantinople and Athens" now in the
press Of Leavitt, Lord & Co. from the
pen of Rev. Walter Cotton. The Com
mercial says:-
"The subject of the very touching and
admirably wrought obituary notice which
Nc now proceed to copy, is not named; !;
but we think there Gun be little hazard
in declaring it can apply to no other than
the lamented Miss Harriet Patterson,
daughter Of Com. Patterson, whose re-
cent death has thrown a deep shade Of
sorrow upon the hearts Of wide extend
ed circle of relatives and friends-in
whose affections she was, but little
while ago, an object of the tcnderest and
most absorbing interest"

occasions an interest beyond the object
which lured our steps-one who would

her sparkling gems Of thought, or supply
the worn topics with others, bril- liant and
fresh from recollection and iancy-one
who made others happy, without seeming

MY NATIVE LAND.
My native land my native land.
a land with every gift repeto,
All perfect from It's Makers hand,
An Empires glorious seat!
And, far removed from thrones and slaves,
There freedoms banner proudly waves.
The frigid and the torrid cline,
The temperate and the genial beam.
The vale, the mountain top sublime,
The arid plain, the living stream
There, linked in unions golden chain.
Attest her varied, vast domain.
Her mountains look DER realms serene!
Der fertile fields and cities free.
And mghtiest rivers roll between.
And bear her wealth from sea TO sea:
While o'er old Oceans flrihest deep
iler hammered nuvies proudly sweep.
On Plymou,h's rocks the pilgrim lands.
His comrades few, and faint with toll,
While warring tribes in countless bands,
Roam lawless o 'er tn uncultured soil.
A few brief years have rolled away,
And those red warriors where are they!
And where are those, the heroic few.
That landed on that rocky shore!
Their voice still rngs-their spirit too
Still breathes-and will, forever more,
For in their sons still burn those fires
That freedom kindled in their stree.
For me, whatever be my fate,
Wherever cast, my country still
Shall o 'er each thought predoninate,
And in my bosom peerless dwell,
Yes, cen to ife's last ebbing sand
Shall live revered, my .Natiue Land.

INFIDELITY.

What should you say of a man who should
throw away his compass, because he could
net tell why it points north? or reject an ac-
curate chart, because it did not delineate
coasts with which it had no concern? What
would you say of man, who should reject
all the best astronomical treatises because
they do not describe the inhabitants of the
moon and of the planets? And what would
you say of man, who, when sick Of mortal
disease, should refuse an infallible remedy,
because the physician would not first tell by
what secret laws the remedy would take et-
feet? Now, this is precisely the case of those
who neglect the Bible, because it does moi

THE HEARTS CHANGE.


THE HEARTS CHANGE
There is change. an utter change.
That comes upon the heart,
Ere time one feature can derange,
Or bid one smile depart;
The outward form is still the same.
Nor are by words expressed,
The dark and boding thoughts tina, tame
The fires within the breast.
undimmed - unaltered--still the eye
Beams forth on all around;
And il the bosom heaves sigh.
That sigh has scarce u sound.
Yet though the world may never dream
Our spirits touched by cafe
30 buoyant and SO free they seem
We are not what we were!
Ger US, we scarce know whencs or when.
That change begins TO steal
Which teaches that we ne'er again
As once we fel, shall feel.
A curtain, slowly drawn aside.
Reveals shawdowed scene.
Wherein the lutue differs wide
From what the past has been.
'Tis not the earth wilhholds its joys
As manhood crowns the brow;
The same pursuit we loved. as boys.
Life offers to us now;
And still we seek the giddy round.
And join the laushers there.
Bu, feel that in the festive sound
Our hearts have now no share.
Yet mourn we not this earthly change
lis sent our souls TO show
How narrow is the utmost range
Allowed them here below.

From scenes so soon O'ercast.
