remarks from the London Quarterly Re-
view to the discriminating attention and
regard as well Of parents as of teachers.
They contain an important principle in
reference to the education of the young,
and one which canno: be too carefully
heeded:-
" 1t is the vice Of the age to substitute learning
! for wisdom-:o educate the head, and to forget
that there is a more important education necessary
for the heart. The reason is cultivated at an
age when Nature does not furnish the elements
necessary to a successful cultivation Of il; and

capable OF sensation and emotion. In infancy

strongly by things which impress the senses and
move the heart. and father shall insti more
solid and available instruction in an hour spent
in the fields, where wisdom and goodness are
eSemplifed, seen, and felt than in month spent
in the study, where they are exPouuded in ste.
