Separating the Sexes in School.

On this point. Mr.. Stowe, celebrated
Glasgow teacher, uses the following Ian
guage: ''The youth of both sexes of our
Scottish peasantry have been educated
together, and, as whole, the Scotch are
the most moral people on the earth. Ed
ucation IN England is given separately,
and we never have heard from practical
men that any benefit has arisen from this
arrangement. Some Influential individ-
uals mourn over the preiudices on this
point. In Dublin, a larger number of
girls turned out badly who had been ed
ucated alone until they attained the age.
Of maturity, than of those who were other
wise brought up-the separation of the
sexes has been found to be injurious. 1t
is stated on the best authority, that of
those girls educated in the schools of con-
vents, apart from boys the greater part
90 wrong within month after being let
loose IN society, and meeting the other
sex. They cannot, it is said, resist the
slightest compliment or fattery. The
separation is intended to keep them strict
ly moral; but this unnatural seclusion ac-
tually generates the very principles de-
sired to be avoided. We may repeat that
it is impossible to raise the girls as high
Intellectually without boys as with them;
and it is impossible to raise boys morally
as high without girls. The boys morally
elevate fine boys, and the boys intellectu-
ally elevate the girls. But more than
this, girls themselves are morally elevat-
ed by the presence Of boys. Girls brought
up with BOYS are more positively moral,
and the boys brought up in the school
with the girls are more positively intellec-
tual, by the softening influence of the
female character. In the Normal Semi
nary at Glasgow, the most beneficial -ef-
fects have resulted of the more natural
course. Boys and girls from the age of
two or three years to that of fourteen OF
fifteen have been trained in the same
classroom, galleries and Fairgrounds,
without impropriety; and they are never
separated, except at needle-work.

Happiness.

A wealthy epicure applied to an Arab
ian doctor for a prescription that would
restore his body to health, and give hap
piness to his mind. The physician advi-
sed him to exchange shirts with a man
who was perfectly eontented with his lot
Whereupon the patient set out on jour
ney in pursuit of such a person. After
many months spent without accomplishing
his object, he was told of a certain cobbler
of whom every one had spoken as amodel
of contentment and happiness. Pursuing
the direction given, the traveller was at
length rewarded with the sight Of the
Cobbler enjoying a comfortable nap on a
board. Without ceremony he was arous-
ed from his slumbers, and the important
interrogatory, whether be was contented
with his lot, was answered In the afirma-
tive. Then" !" said the seeker after hap
plness, Il have one small boon to ask at
your hand. 1t is that you exchange
shirts with me, that by thus means l may
also become contented and happy. .
Most gladly would | accede to the re-
quest, "replied the cobbler, "but''-"Nay
refuse me not,n interrupted the man of
wealth; ''any sum that thou mayest name
shall be thine" Il seek not thy wealth
SAID the cobbler, "but-but-" "But
what ?'' The-the truth isl have no
shirt" )"

The Midnight sun.

''It's Just five minutes of twelve we
shan't see it. There it is above! See
the line of sunshine come down the noun
tam! We shall have it soon - There
were few moments of doubt, when the
great orb burst splendidly forth below the
cloud. "The rising sun. The midnight
SUM-" 1t was splendid spectacle, the
rays sparkling over the beautiful Fiord-
lighting up distant snowy mountains, shin
ing back from peak to peak far away, and
the whole sphere najeshcally rising and
clearing away what moment before had
been the cloud of evening, but were now
the mists of morning. The light, too,
was different one, at least to our imagi-
nation, purer, clearer, and fresher. We
watched the first movement, and it seem
er for time not to be upwards, but pa
rallel with the hills, and then to be gra-
dually ascending. At length we slowly
descended under the full morning sunlight
to the village. 1t was half past one as
we walked through the streets, but people
seemed just as much up and stirring as in
the day. Children were playing In the
street and women sewing at the windows,
while many came to the door to study the
costume of our ladies. Certainly, nobo-
dy sleeps In Norway we said.-Bruce' S

Reading AIOud.

There is no treat so great as to hear
good reading of any kind. Not one gem
tleman or lady in hundred can read so
as to please the ear, and send the words
with gentle force to the heart and under
standing. An indistlnct utterance, WIN
nes, drones, nasal twangs, cultural notes,
hesitatious. and other vices of elocution,
are almost universal. Why it is, no one
can saw. unless it be that either the pulpit
or the nursery or the Sunday give
the style, in these days. Many lady can
sing Italian songs with considerable exc
cution. but cannot read English passably.
Yet reading is by far the most valuable
accomplishment of the two. In most
drawing-roo1ns, if a thing Is to be read, it
is discovered that nobody can read: one
has weak lungs, another gets hoarse, an
other Chokes, another has an abominable

If education is the great buckler and

industry is equally the buckler and shield
of individual independence. As an un-

though there is ample field for the adop-
ton of every inclination In this respect
