made obeisance. And when out in the streets
during their recess, however yocierously IN.
| terested in their pastlmes, no traveller made
his appearance whose approach did not cause
an immediate hush Of voices and suspension
Of exciting sports. The tribute of bow was
cheerfully paid, and not till they had passed
beyond their immediate neighborhood did
they resume their plays. When they enter
ed or left the school room, when they took
and retired from the place Of recitation, the
bow and the curtsey were the preliminary
and finale Of the performance.
Although this practice, in itself considered.
was Of little worth, yet, as a token Of respect
fulness, as sign Of good will, it was 81 high
value. II was an outward manifestation or
symbol Of an inward state or spirit which it
would be well for all to possess, and which
should be assduousy cultured in the minds
Of the young.

old practice now prevail? Where are the
evidences in our children Of the possession Of

regard for their superiors in years aud Wis.
dom Who does not know that bows and
cursies, on the part Of our boys and girls,
are obsolete, both in idea and practice, and
are numbered With the lost arts Of the an
clients Ii has been remarked that (" there
are thousands OF boys in this great country
/ not ore OF whom has ever made bow, unless
when he had occasion to dodge SNOWFALL, a
brickbat, or a boulder"
Some eight or ten winters since ey-Gover-
nor Everett. of Massachusetts,, with the late
Amos Lawrence, was in a sleigh riding into
Boston. As they approached school-house
a score ol young boys rushed into the street
to enjoy their afternoon recess. Said the
Governor TO his friend, I" Let US observe
whether these boys make obeisance TO US as
we were taught fifty years ago" Al the same
time he expressed the fear that habits of ci-
Witty were less practced than formerly. As
ihey passed the school-house all questions
and doubt upon the subject received a speedy
! il mt a satisfactory settlement; for each one
Of these juvenile New Englanders did bis

This is perhaps an extreme instance Of the
unfortunate change which fifty years have
wrought in the habits of the young. In the
