The next morning about ten O'Clock
Wilmer was descending Court street to
his office, when he encountered an old bu,
not very welcome acquaintance. 1t was
young man of very dandyish appearance,
though there was something in his dress as
we'll as in himself which minated that
both had seen better days. His boots and
linen, both of first re,e quality, were not
so far removed from one another in CON-
pexion as might have been desired, and a
slight change had come over the color of
the once exquisite beaver, which was pois-
ed jauntily on the side of his head. There
was an air Of forced levty about his man.
ner that struck one disagreeaby, especially
when compared with his thin. cadaverous
cheeks and sunken eye, not very we'll set
Oft by he bushy luxuriance of enormous
vhiskers. His whole appearance betoken
ed the broken down spendthrift yet with
al there was an intelligence and bon>hom.
ME in his looks that would incline rather
TO pity than despise him in his degradation.
Frederick had long since given up all
intimacy with his former associate, flor il
was none but james Duplesss. and felt at
this moment particularly DESTROYS of avoid
ing him. But as this was rendered impos,

The history of Jesse Bledsoe, who recent
ly died at Nacogdoches, in Texas, presents a
striking example of fallen greatness. He be-
gan his career as lawyer and statesman in
Lexington, Ky, where he was the chief and
formidable rivel Of Clay.-He was at different
periods Il member of the State Legislature
and Senator in Congress, Law Professor of
Pennsylvania University, and Chief Justice
of the Supreme Court of Kentucky. No man
stood higher in the state as politician and
jurist than he did and none except Clay ever
welded with such entire mastery and control
the judgments and feelings of his auditors
when speaking. Yet, with all his greatness
the spirit Of intoxication seized upon him, and
dragged him from the height wherein his ge
MUS placed him; dried up his understanding,
and made him miserable outcast and wan

teach that to others Of which she has not cor
rect knowledge herselfl II may be said that
men can do all this. They can in some cases.
TO be sure-but will they do lido they do it
And would they be acting in their own place,
did they do it But how often is il the case
that the business Of men calls them from home,
and the education Of the children necessarily
devolves on the woman II is not unfre-
quently the case, in consequence OF sickness,
mental derangement or the absence OF the
man, that the woman is obliged to take his
place, and superintend not only the domestic
but all his outdoor affairs. And is il not ne
cessary under such circumstances, that the
woman should be as thoroughly educated as
the man Such incidents are not uncom-
mon they are such as may take place in
every family. And as the object of education
is to prepare us for the business transactions,
and to meet the common incidents OF life, It
follows as matter of course, that one person
should be as well taught in the common
branches of science, as another.
II may be argued that woman is the weak
er vessel" and that consequently her educa-
ton is less important. But the premises laid
down by the director does not admit of such
a conclusion If woman is the weaker vessel,
she is more likely to have deceit practised
upon her, and to get entangled in business,
therefore she should, at least, be as thorough
| ly educated as the man.
Another argument in favor of this question,
is the weight which education adds to per-
sons influence knowledge is power"
Without it, all our usefulness must be limited.
| Ii then, education is necessary TO make man
useful, it is also necessary to make woman
useful But one of the most-important argu-
ments on which we predicate our faith in the
correctness of the position we have taken, is
the evil originating from acting upon the prin-
ciple of the opposite. Women receive but a
superficial education, and the consequence is
they but specifically instruct their children.
Who can tell the loss which one child sus.
tains from a want of early attending correctly
to this duty. When we consider that
Just as the twig IS bent, the tree S Inclined"
that the effect OF wrong or superficial edu-
cation Of person is felt to the end Of this life,
destroying his happiness, curtaiing his useful
ness, we cannot conceive that the standard of
a womans education can be elevated too
high.
