ON THE STUDY OF HISTORY.

We have often thought that the study Of His
tory was not sufficiently cultivated in our schools
and academies. Indeed, student seldom, unless
incidentally, acquires more definite idea Of his
tory than he CLEANS from the classics; and youth
whose studies are confined to the different branches
Of English letters, generally leaves school with
but vague and unconnected notions of ancient or
modern history.
The advantages which arc derived from the
study Of history are immense-but still they do
not seem to be properly understood History
has been cmphaticay termed ''the looking-gl glass
of the world'--it reflects all the actions of
mankind and brings to our view the acts OF
distant and reccdng ages. 1t gives us pros
pect Of human allairs-it shows us the tumuls,
changes, wars, and convulsions Of empires-thc
politics, religions virtues, and vices of individu-
ais and nations-t furnishes us with patterns to
initiate and examples to deter.
BY studying history, a man may grow wise al
the expense Of tho studies of other men. He may
thus visit, without travelling, all the habitable
parts of the globe. He may converse with the
sages of olden time. He may revcl at Babylo
with Alexander the Great, or sip black broth
at Laccdemon with the pupils OF Lycurgus. Hc
may accompany Atilla, the scourge of mankind
on his devastating routes, or look in upon Peter
of Russia, while dcvising plans to improve the
condition Of his barbarous subjects. He may
90 forth with Columbus to discover a new world
or Join Napoleon and his numerous hosts, in at
tempting to ensavc kingdoms. In a word,
familiar acquaintance with history will give
man certain knowledge of mankind, which every
ono should possess. It is an important brancl
of education, which should not be overlooked
