CULTIvATE YOUR BUMP OF ORDER.-A
man has twenty or thirty letters and pack
cts 10 carry 10 their several destinations
but instead Of arranging them beforehand.
and putting all addressed 10 the same neigh
borhood in parcel, he Grams the whole
into promiscuous bag. lie delivers one
letter in one place, proceeds to remote
point with second, reiraces his steps be-
fore he can deliver third, returns TO repair
an omission, aud then performs transit
that might have been saved altogether by
little forecast. Thus il requires two days
to perform the business Of one. The man
who has thoroughly mastered the lesson.
"a place for every thing, and every thing
in its place." will save a world Of time,
He loses no leisure seeking for The unan.
swered letter or the lost receipt he does
not need 10 travel the same road twice, and
hence il is that some OF the busiest men
have the least Of busy look. Instead OF
slamming doors, ana knocking over chill
rem in their headlong hurry, they move
about deliberately and carefully, without
any expression Of haste, anxiety, and tu-
mutt for they have made their calculations.
and know that they have ample time to fal-
I'll every duty aud every engagement. Those
who live without plan, never have any
leisure for their work is never done--nev-
er can be done properly, because the end
aud the right way TO il have not been dis
cerned aud pursued without deviation from
the beginning.

EDUCATE YOURSELF knowledge is its
own exceeding great reward. II is not the
gift Of college, particularly. II is what
the mind produces whenever il acts. Great
schools are chiefly appliances for the lazy;
to furnish substitutes for knowledge, by
which to make their ways into the world.
A youth who has a noble thirst for science,
is not so much benefited by "iberel edu-
cation" as he is apt to imagine he will be
before trying il. IL your parents are rich
and have nothing better to do with their
money, let them board you at Cambridge or
Yale for four years. But il they are poor
laboring people, stay with them and labor
too. But don't the less strive for liberal
education. Be liberal in supplying your
self with hooks and time. Journey on foot
and study nature and men. Ask questions
Of everybody and everything.
Thus doing, you will probably acquire
more satisfactory and useful knowledge, and
what is more, sounder character and 6rmer
health--you will be more Of man than il
you distress your parents TO have knowledge
put into your mouth with pap-spoon. 1t
is thus the greatest and best men are made
in every country.-Boston ChrOnOtyPe.

EDucATIoS.-Some suppose that every
learned man is an educated man. No such
thing. That man is educated who knows
himself, and takes accurate, common sense
views of men and things around him. Some
very learned men are perfect biUckhcads-
the reason is, they are not educated. Learn
ing is only the means, not the end its value
consists in giving the facilities for acquiring
in the discipline which, when properly
managed, |, imparts to the mind. Some Of
the greatest men ia the world were not over
stocked with learning, but their actions
prove that they were thoroughly educated.
Washington, Sherman and franklin were
Of this class; similar, though less striking
instances, may be found in all Countries
A man may study metaphysics till he is
gray. aud languages till he is a walking
polygloi, and if he knows nothing more, he
is uneducated

LEARNiNo.-I am no enemy TO learning
NO enemy to colleges. On the contrary,
am the steadlast friend of both, overrated
as they are, and the advantages Of both so
sbundaniIy exaggerated by the great mass
Of our people-as il no other learning were
valuable, no other knowledge worth having.
l would remind them OF the basket ma.
ker-the only man Of large crew, cast
ashore among savages, who was able to turn
his past acquisitions to account; while the
remainder sat twirling their thumbs, liable
every moment to be knocked in the bead
for their ignorance, the basket maker was
made chief on the spot, and almost Worship
ped for his ingenuity.
Or | might remind them OF that other
crew taken by Barbary corsair. When
they were carried before the Dey, he inquir.
ed their several occupations. The riggers,
the blacksniths. the carpenters, we're all
sent off to the dock-yard. The sailors had
comfortable berth provided for them-and
even the officers were turned TO account one
way and another. At last his highness came
TO literary mann passenger and poet.
What to do with him, for long while,
his highness could not, for the life Of him,
say-iill at last learning that the person was
man Of sedentary occupation, and having
the term explained By thu interpreter, he
ordered the poet pair OF feather bT-erhes.
and set him to Matching chickens.
And now, which Of these two was the
educated man, the poet, or the basket ma.

A BEAUTIFUL PAssAeE.-Wc take the
following beautiful passage from Mr. Web
sier's eulogy upon Jeremiah Mason:
"But-sir-poliical eminence and pro-
fessional fame, fade away and die with all
things earthly. Nothing OF character is re-
ally permanent but virtue and personal worth.
They remain. Whatever Of excellence is
wrought into the soul itself belongs TO both
worlds. Real goodness does not attach itself
merely TO this life. j, points TO another world.
Political or professional fame cannot last
forever, but conscience void Of offence be-
fore God aud man. is an inheritance for
eternity. Religion. therefore, is necessary,
an indispensable element in any great humen
character. There is no living without il.
Religion is the tie that connects man with
his Creator, and holds him to his throne.
II that tie be al sundered, all broken, he
floats away worthless atom in the universe,
its proper attractions all gone, its destiny
thwarled, aud its whole future nothing but
darkness, desolation and death. A man with
no sense Of religious duty is he whom the
Scriptures describe-in such tcrse but ter
rife language-as living without God in
the world Such a man is out Of his pro-
per being, out OF the circle OF all his hsppi-
ness. and away, far. far away from the pur-
poses Of his Creator"
