you may as well go TO your room, and count, il
you can, the opportunities which you have thrown
away. ihave done my best to procure you a
good settlement in life, but see that it is of no
use. shall still have to leep you on my hands.
Marion retired to her room, and throwing her
self upon her couch, wept long and bitterly. A
cruel feeling that of dependence, and sense OF
obligation to those with whose wishes we cannot
comply; particularly when we feel that they de-
mand compliance with those wishes, as a return
for our obligations to them. She had always been
treated with the utmost kindness by Mrs. Wal
worth. and she therefore felt all the more deeply
her allusion TO her Independent situation. Col.
L--was all she could have asked ina husband
and might undoubtedly have won aplace in her
heart had it not been wholly Prc-occupied by the
memory of Arthur Of this, however, Mrs, Wal
worth knew nothing. The letter which she found
upon her dressing table on the morning after his
disappearance had been seen by no eye but her
own, and the feeling with which she remembered
him was concealed within the Iecesses of her own
heart ' -'f.
In few days after the above conversation her
demeanor was marked by a quiet sadness. Mrs,
Walworth treated her as one with whom she had
right to be oiTended and she felt daily, and
more deeply the burden of that dependence IN
which she had lived and must still live, so long as
she remained in the family. After some hesitation
she determined she would submit to it no longer.
Her various accomplishments, she knew, would
obtain for her comfortable support in her native
city; and upon this resource she resolved TO throw
herself, and thus relieve Mrs. Walworth from that
which, she feared, she had long considered bur
den. To this lady she therefore impaired her res
olution, as soon as it was fully formed. Mrs.
WaIworth was surprised, and for some moments
made no reply. She at once inferred that there
must be some other reason for Marion's decision
than that which she gave, She had never been plac-
ed in circumstances Of dependence herself, and did
not know how easily sensitive mind may be
wounded, when in such situation. II might be,
she thought, that Marion was angry for the warmth
which she had urged her TO accept the address of
Col L,--perhaps she was impatient of all re-
straint--or more probably she had formed an at
tachment to some obscure individual, and would,
ifremoved from the family, be lett free to follow
her own inclinatons. II was not the first time
that this latter idea had presented itself TO the mind
of Mrs. .Walworth There was no other way in
which she could account for Marion's constant re-
fusa Of ofpersons every way worthy Of her, and she
now concluded that she must have been right i'll
this opinion. She therefore answered codly-- ,.,
swell Marion you have formed this decision
without my advice, and Of course you will act
your own pleasure. have done all could for
you, and ifyou cannot be happy in any way can
offer you, take your own course Remember
that you leave our house of your own choice

:sWe hold these truths to be self-evident:' that
all men are created equal; that they are endowed
by their creator with certain inalienable rights;
that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit
of happiness; that to secure these rights govern
ments are instituted among men, deriving their
just powers from the consent of the governed"-
Such is the language Of the Declaration of Inde-
pendence. But what worth has life, fit be that Of
a wild beast! or what avails mans pursuit Of
happiness when he knows not the path wherein
il is found? aa sa,.p, sFt ss
Every man should live as if conscious of imnIor-
tai powers; wisely regulated liberty is alone de-
sirable; and he but vany strives in the pursuit Of
happiness, who is without the guidance of well
instructed mind. It Of wisdom that it said her
ways are ways ofpleasantness, and all her paths
are peace. y The promotion, therefore, of mental
improvement-the diffusion OF knowledge-the
encouragement of virtuous. habits-or, in other
words, the great business of Education:--how can
this be aught else than tho most worthy care of
a free government! 5.s ,ssraT .,- sas sts
ID That any man should refuse his assent to these
truths, is to me most strange. AS for those men,
who become members of the General Assembly of
Ohio, and who thus have the power to legislate
upon the subject. their assent is already given
when they have taken the official oath which re-
quires them to support the constitution of the
State. The third section of the eighth article of
the constitution ol Ohio contains these words:
ssBut religion, morality and knowledge, being
essentially necessary to good government and the
happiness of mankind, SCHOOLS AND THE

A DESCRIPTION OF GUlzo TTHE FRENCH
PRIME MINlsrER.-Form an idea of this
man oflittle stature, with his head bent
forward, and his body leaning 10 tile
right from weakness, with thin gray
hair, pale complexion, hollow cheeks,
as he steps up to the chair. Imagine
that this man, weighed down by the
cares of his office, by his feeble health,
and the troubles caused to him by two
sick children, also laLors under an un-
popularity unparalleled since Richelieu
and Mazarin. Arrived on the chair,he
crosses his arms, throws back his head;
his forehead is clearing up and extend
ing; his eyes are enlivened, and, from
his lips, with a motion of fcontempt that
plays round the concerns of his mouth,
The most admirable language fows.-
You find the saloon crowded with the
elected of whole nation, the most dis
tingushed peers OF France, strangers
of all nations; but in vain you look for
a single countenance that gives signs
of nattention, ennui, or Indifference.
On the contrary, you find antagonists
and adherents chained, enchanted. puz-
zled,o enthusiastic in their expressions,
according to their political position.
That is an astonishing spectacle, and
is to this great statesman an atonement
for the injustice he is suffering, and
which will soon terminate his life. Af-
ter he has descended from the chair,his
vital spirits, feverishIy y excited, still sus-
tain him, but he hastens home, and his
body yields to exhaustion; he lays him
self down and seeks rest, either in con-
versaton with his two children, or in
sleep, if it does not refuse him its re-
lief.--Georgian.

MARRIED LrFE.--Deceive not one
another in small things nor great. One
little single lie, has before now disturb
ed a whole married life. A small cause
has often great consequences. Fold
not the arms together and sit idle.----
"Laziness is the Devils cushion" Do
not run much from home. Ones own
health is worth more than gold. Many
marriage, my friends, begins like the
rosy morning, and then falls away like
snow wreath. And why, my friendsl
Because the married pair neglect to be
as pleasing to each other after mar
riage as before. Endeavor always,
my children, to please one another; but
at the same time keep God in your
thoughts. Lavish not all of your love
on to-day, for remember that marriage
has its tomorrow, likewise, and its day
after Tomorrow, too. Spare, rs one
may say, fuel for the winter. Consid-
er, my daughters, what the word Difs
expresses. The married woman is her
husbands domestic faith; in her hand
he must be able to entrust the key of
his heart, as well as the key Of his eat
ing room. His honor and his home
are in her keeping----his we'll being is
in her hand. Think of this! And you,
sons, be faithful husbands and good fa-
theirs of families. Act so that your
wives shall esteem and love you.
