II there is one matter of greater inapoi Ia
ance to the Human Family than all Oth-
ers, it is the EDUCATION of the Young.
WE ARE ALL AT SCHOOL

Every man should seriously take
iato consideration that he is in course
ofeducation which he may vary indeed,
but from which he can by no means
escape; training for something should
he not know for what and how the pro-
cess is going on:
The child roams about The street un-
taught, uncared for; ii follows tempta-
ton 1t obeys the impulse Of its ma
ture; IS 1t not at school? Yes, verify;
and i; drinks IN greedlly tie instruction
it receives, aad will show its improve
ment in precociouS witkedness. yhe
youth passes his time in id1eness; Wis
its the places where other loungerS con
gregate seeks occupation enough to
dispel the discomfort of lota! inactivity,
In drinking, smoking, or Loose CONVEX
sation; and TO diversity life, and put
on the show of manhood, INDUCES in
other vices Of ma1urer life; and IS he
not at school? Yes, and YOU will see
that he is making advances from day to
day. His former notions, if he ever had
any, of religious litigation, passing
away he is forming new habits Of think
ing he gets new views of men and
things, and faneies that he knows the
world; he learns new language
acquires new skill in reasoning upon
moral SUBJECTS, and graduates loatsr.
So too the full grown man, by atten-
ding to his daily business, forms habits
of industry; by neglec'ing them, hab
its of idleness. By the careful dis
charge ofhi daily duties, he confirms
himself in habits of virtue; by neg|ec-
ting them, his character loses its form
and consistency, and he gradually, but
surely, passes to that state in which
moral obligation has no hold upon him,
and he is completely the slave Of temp
ta'ion.- Wright's Paper.

COMMON SCHOOL EDUCATION.

We utterly repudiate, as unworthy,
not of freeman only, but Of mer, the
narrow notion, that there is to be an
education for the poor as such. Has
God provided for the poor a coaser
earth, a thinner air, paler sky p
Does not the glorious sun pour down
his golden flood as cheerlly upon TIE
poor mans home, as upon the rich
mans palace? Have not the cottager's
children as keen sense of all the fresh
ness, verdure, fragrance, melody, and
beauty of luxuriant nature, as the pale
sons of kings' Or is it on the mind tina,
God has stamped baser birth, so that
the poor mans child knows, with an
Unborn certainty, .hat his lot is to crawl
not climb?
1t is not so. God has not done it..
Men cannot do it. Mind is immortal.
Mind is imperial. 1t bears no mark Of
hig h or low, rich or poor. It heeds
no bounds Of time or place, of rank or
circumstance. 1t asks but freedom -
1t requires but light. 1t is heaven born,
and it aspires to heaven. Weakness
does not unfit it. Poverty cannot re-
press it. Difficulties do but stimulate
its vigor. And the poor tallow-chan-
dIer's son who sits up al! night to read
the book which an apprentice lends
him, lest the masters eye should miss
it in the morning, shall stand and treat
with kings, shall add new provinces
to the dominion of science, shall bind
the lightning with hempen cord, and
bring it harmless from the skies. The
common school is common, not inferi.
or, not as the school for poor mems
children, Blu, as the light and air are
common. 1t ought to be the best
school, because it is the frs. school ;
and in all good works the beginning is
one half. Who does not know the va.
lue to community Of a plentiful sup
ply of water' And infinitely more then
is the instruction of,he common school;
it is the fountain at which the mind
drinks, and is refreshed and strength
ened Cor its career of usefulness and
glory.-b.

REDEEM TIME FOR STUDY.


The busiest workman can spare some
moments. Ifyou mean to get wisdom
you must learn the value of moments.
Great attainments have been made by
these little snatehes. Whether you
work or play, do it in earnest, but new
er be unemployed an instant. Unsta
bic anc indolent people lose much of
life in thinking of what they shall do
next? Always have a book within
reach, which you may catch up at your
odd moments. Il is incredible, until
trial has been made, how much real
knowledge may be acquired in those
broken scraps Of time. Resolve to
edge in little reading every day, if i,
is but single sentence. The man
who pnrsues this method will infallib'y
become learned. Take little time
for reading from each end of your
nights rest. IL you can gain fifteen
minutes day, it will make itself felt
al the close of the year. have some
times thought that the mind acts with
double vigor when forced into the brief
periods ofapplicatIon. By degrees you
will 20 save moments from work.
And in the long white: evenings, you
will certainly be inexcusable, if you do
net devote an hour or two to your
books.-N.
