ADVICE TO MOTHERS. The following letter
from etle late Lord Collingwood 10 Mrs Hall
contains some valuable advice To mothers: u
had great pleasure, writes his lorasbip, 'n the
receipt OF your very kind letter few days since
aud give YOU Joy, my dear Maria on the in
crease or your family. You have now three
boys, and hope they will live to make you
happy when you are an old woman. l am tru-
y sensible of the kind regard you have
shown TO me in giving my name TO your
niont; he will bring me TO your remembrance
often, ard then you will think of Il friend who
loves you and your family very much. With
kind and affeconate husband aud three small
children, all boys, you are happy and hope
YOU will ever be so. But three boys!-let me
tell you the chance is very much against you,
unless you are forever on your guard. The tenn
per and disposition of most people are formed
before they are seven years old; and the COM
mon cause of bad ones is the great indul-
gence and mistaken fondness which the affec-
| lions of a parent finds it difficult 10 veil, AL
though the happiness of child depends upon
it.-Your measures must be systematic; when
| ever they do wrong, never omit to reproVe thein
firmly, but with genteness. Always speak to
Them in style and language superior 10 their
years. Proper words are as easily learned as
improper ones; and when they do well-when
| they deserve Observation-Disclosures It law
ishly.
Let the feelings of your heart flow from
your eyes and tongue; and they Will never tor'
get the effect which their good behavior has
upon their mother, and this at an earlier time
OF life than is thought l am very much inter
esied in their prosperity, and that they may ne,
come good and virtuous men. l am glad tha'
you think my daughters are well behaved girls:
took much pains with .hem the little time
was at home. l endeavored TO give them a
contempt for the nonsense and trivority OF fash
ion and to establish in its stead a conduct foun-
ded on reason. They could admire thunder q
lightning as well as anysother of Gods stipend
GUS works, IL walk ,hrough:a churchyard at mid
night without apprehensions of meeting any
thing worse than themselves; l brought their
up not to make griefs of trifes, nor suffer any

he seeks their sufrages. he is unified
