Female Education,

Female education is of immense
importance, as connected with do

orally passes the largest portion of his
time; where he seeks refuge from
The veXalions and embarrassments OF
busln' IS, an enchanting rcpose from
'Xertion, relaxation from care by
The interchange of affection; where
some Of his finest sympalhies, tastes, and
moral and religious feelings are formed
and nourished; where the treasure ofpure

Well ordered homo, mans best delight TO make,
And by submissive wisdom, modest skill,
With every gentle care-eluding art,
To raise her virtues, animate the bliss,
And swceten all the tolls ofhunan life
I his be the female dignity and praise.
Neither rank, nor splendid mansions
nor extensively furnished apartments
nor luxurious repasls can accomplish these
actions. They are to be Obtained only
from the riches OF elevated principles,
from the nobility of virtue, from the spen
dor of religious and moral beauty, from
the anquet of refued taste, affeclionale
department, and intellectual pleasures
Intelligence and piety throw the brightest
sunshine over the dwellings of private
life, and these are the results of female ed
ucalion.
Female education is extremely valua-
bic from lis imparting an elevated and I'M
proved character to domestic discourse.
Conversation is one of the greatest joys
OF existence, and the more perfect it is
made by the resources of learning, eniar-
ged views Of morality, refinement of Ian
guage, and the splendors of Imagery, the
more exquisite is the joy. 1t Is from ed

Henry English had chosen one who
had no other recommendation but mind
and person. Wealth did not throw her
wreath of spendor and power around her
brow. But sweet and simple, innocent in
person and mind, rich in the variety of
youth, gave to her charms more allurng
influence than all the splendor that wealth
brings in its train. Unaided they COM

The gallant who had been the partner
Of Eliza Murray at the bail, became in

society. but unfit for the more serious and
substantial affairs of life. Such was the
hasiy idea formed as witnessed the
wedding ceremonies. But Eliza then

nance, and the same laughing lip spoke
Of present happiness. when she bid the

Necessity Of having Fixed Priu-
ciples.

The surest guarantee of success in eve
ry great and laudable enterprise, Is deci-
sion OF character; aud no one ever attain
ed this envable characteristic without &C
curing the habit of acting upon fixed
principles.
In all arts and sciences there are Ger
tain fixed principles, which must be
known and carefully attended to, il a man
wishes to be successful. A mechanic
sometimes, by mere dint of habit and
knack; becomes very expert; but it is on
ly in some confined instance. Just in
that tract he proceeds with certainty, but
cannot attemp, any thing else, nor even
am at Improvement in what he does
Nay, if he does not III derstand the prin
ciples on which his operations depend,he
must sometimes fail; he is confounded by
any new Appearance, and knows not how
to obvlale the least difficulty. But If his
knowledge precedes his activity, if he I'M
derslands why things must so be done,
and how the effect is produced, he be-
comes more adroit in his operations; he
can remed y any mistake, can rectify any
imperfectlon, can venture even beyond
his accustomed limits, to improvement or
new inventions.
Surely then, the art Of living honora-
bly, and filling in respectable manner our
station in life must not be left to hazard,
TO habit, TO custom, to chance, He who
would be successful and adroit, had need
well understand what rules may guide
him; else he may weary himself to no
purpose, and fail even by excess of exer-
ton.
Does youth take up the noble resolu
ton, and determine TO be valuable char
actcr, good at east, and great if circum-
stances permit; he has made the first step
by such resolution. Let him carefully
examine by what principles he may
guide himself, to secure so important an
object Let him be assured, that nothing
really valuable will be obtained without
care and labor. Chance, as il is called, is
Incidence in this case, and will certainly
produce mischief
A little thinking will show, that men
of any character, good or bad, do act thus
on sort of regular plan.
Some general principle, for instance.
suflices in many cases. THAT honesty
is the best policy" has become pro-
verb; and it has kept many one from
ruin. There are indeed meaner spirits
who cannot form an idea of policy with
out craft and subtlely, this soon becomes
deceit; and when it sinks to this, ii is dis.
covered, and defeats its own purpose
