Female Education.

Much has already been said, and much
remains to be said, on female education, ere
it will be deeply enough impressed on the
heart Of every parent that good practical
education, well-disciplinod mind, finely
cultivateltasse, and purely moral charac-
ter, are the richest dowry that can be left
their daughter; such an education as can
grace the halls Of princely courts, and impe.
rial palaces, or to cheer the Lowest novels Of
poverty and despair; an eduoation that will
be a blessing to themselves, tkeir parents,
their friends, and all around them; fitted for
literary career, or the peaceful domestic
hearth, the wise counselor, or the tender
mother, the teacher, Or the good Samaritan.
All these are the duty Of every female in all
spheres of life. Look at Florence Night.

BOYS Our AT NIGHT-.I have been an OBJ
server, as II am a sympathizing lover of boys.
| like to see them happy cheerful, aud glee-
some. Indeed L can hardly understand how
a heightened, useful mar can lie the ripcned
fruit of a boy who had not full share Of the
privileges due to youth. But while / watch
with very jealous eye all rights and customs
which intrench upon the proper rights of boys
| am equally apprehensive lest the parents
who are not re-thoughtful, and who have
habituated themselves to no close observation
upon this subject, permit their SONS indulgen-
ces which are almost certain to result in
their decentralization, if not in their total ruin;
| know if none more prominent than that Of
parents permitting their sons to be in the
streets after nightfall.
Boys should be taught to have pleasures
around the family centre table, in reading,
conversation, and in quiet amusem mis-. Boys
are seen in the streets after nj ghtfall behaving
in a manner entirely destructive of all good
morals. Fathers and mothers, keep yonr
chldren home at night, and see that you take
pains to make your homes pleasant, and at
tractive, and profitable TO them and above
| all4 with u view of their secality from future
destruction let them not become while form
ing their characters for life, so accustomed to
disregard the moral sense of shame as to open
ly violate the Sabbath day in street pastimes
during its day Or evening hours.
