HUMILITY MANLY" Learn of me, for l
am meek and owly in heart" Observe the
argument here. Men are unwilling to come
to Jesus, because it involves self.humbling.
They think they sacrifice their manhood by
becoming meek and lowly; that is, by laying
aside pride and selfsuficicncy, and by be-
coming submissive to God in all things
Such Jesus addresses with an argument un-
answerable. lie, the Man Christ Jesus, was
meek and lowly. Did he lack any element
of true manhood ? Nay, he was the only
true man that ever trod the EARTH Every
essential of noble manhood is found in him.
Even in6dels have acknowledged this, and
admired this sole perfect specimen of human
ity. TO you, oh, proud man, Jesus speaks
and says, Come unto me and humble your.
self. By doing so you shall not lose, but
gain true manhood, tor am meek and low.
ly." Surely it is no mark of manhood to
swear. to drink, to give way to passion, to
live selfish life. Any fool can do those
things with as great facility as you. 1t is nc
sign of manhood to swell with pride. Satar
can beat you at that business. Whea you
thus swell with pride, you are not more of 0
man, but more devil To submit to God
to be meek and lowly, like Jesus-these ART
the elements of true manhood. If mar
puts his will under Gods will, the everlast
ing arms are placed beneath and around him
and he is lifted up face to face, with the Saw
Jour, and becomes a true man.-ReU II. M

JUDGED BY THE COMPANY YOU KEEP
Young persons cannot be too guarded in re-
spect to the company you keep, for, however
erroneous the conclusions may be in certain
cases, it is fact not to be lightly considered,
that the character of the man is judged by
the company in which he is seen and this
on the known law, that like has an infnity
with like Many "a young man has lost
golden opportunity because in a single in
stance, perhaps, he has been seen iu the conf
pany Of those known to have bad habits or
corrupt principles. and been judged like them,
To all young persons we would say, be ex-
ceedingIy careful as to the individuals with
whom you are seen. Your experience is
small, your knowledge of character limited,
your principles of life only in the forming
state; and the inference in your case will
be that you incline to the known habits of
your supposed associations.

WILL.--How many times have we heard
both parents and teachers say, such child
must have MS will broken-he is too head
strong. Is the will ever broken ? 1t may be
made to bend, but never is it broken. If
John was not so willful, he would do we'll
enough, say the parent and teacher, when
every success that crowns his endeavors is tho
fruit of the will Guide this heavenly gift,
aid the child in placing this firm, strong lever
beneath good and noble purposes, and much
will be accomplished. When the Will joins
hands with Reason and Religion, its power
will be for good. Strong will is the charac-
teristic of all those who have achieved power,
either for good or evil, in the worlds history.
The will is the most prompt and decisive fac
ulty of the mind, and impes to immediate
action. 1t is necessary for the teacher to
possess this frmncss of purpose, that he may
cultivate the same in his pupils. If they find
will to meet each duty faithfully, they will
be inspired with the same feeling in their
duties

A Word to Teachers.

E EDITOR FREEMAN Permit me through
your paper to suggest to teachers Of Common
Schools, the proprety of holding public
examination Or exhibition at the close of the
winter term. This, | suppose, is already
practiced, to some extent, in the State, and |
think it but requires fair trial TO convince
all Of the benefits that would be derived, were
such plan generally pursued.
That may not be understood as advocat-
ing practice that will not bear the test Of
reason | will briefly state tohy consider it
beneficial.
First, it will tend to secure an increased
interest in the schoo! from the parents. 1t
is an unmis akable fact, that so far as per-
sonaly visiting schools is concerned, tho pa
rents-at least in this part of the State-are
lamentably remiss, and any plan that will
serve to awaken them to sense of their
duty in this respect, and otherwise benefit
the schools, is worth trial.
Second, the pupils, understanding that
there is to be such an examination at the
close of school, will be melted to greater ex-
ertion, that they may not fail to make IA
vorable impression on the minds Of their pa
rents and friends, and receive from them the
award due to exertion and merit.
Lastly, the teachers themselves would,
perhaps, be induced to pursue somewhat
different course than they otherwise might
not that they will fail to do all in their
power for the advancement OF their charge
but, here would be new incentive, which
united to the desre-and that laudable
desire-to have their scholars pass COM
mendable and satisfactory examination, will,
OF ITSELF. be reward worth the seeking.
The examination, of course, could not be
as minute as under more favorable circum-
stances, but, a review Of the different
branches pursued in school, trials in reading
and spelling, exhibitions in penmanship,
&C., would give very good idea Of
the progress that had been made during the
term, and serve to pass away half day
pleasantly to all and were such course
generally pursued, it would he no difficult
task for the parents to keep track of their
childrens advancement, otherwise than from
their call for new books
Teachers, what say you to the suggestion
here made? Does it coincide with your
views and if 70, shall it receive trial2

Morality in Schools.
BY MRS. D. M.F WALKER.

Every teacher knows that those children
who have had the best moral and religious
training at home, make him the least trouble
in school if, in school, order is the result of
such home training, in society, order will be
the result of such school-training.
But out Common Schools, our Academies
and even our Colleges are at fault here, aud
in the home. circle, and in public opinion
Nothing Of an immoral tendency should be
allowed in our Institutions of learning. But
is it so? Are not the public blind to the
true state of the case?
The Common-School teacher often negccts
to notice and reprove the faults of her pupils
for fear of offending the parents, and yet,
parents tell us, do not send my children to
the Common.School, because they will learn
all manner of wickedness there!
The High School teacher, too, will follow
her example for the same reason, and if he
is dependent on the number of his pupilsfor
support, the temptation will be doubly strong.
1t will moi do TO offend the son Of ESQ. A.,
or to reprove the daughter of DR.. B., lest
they should withdraw their patronage from
the school, Then how could the teacher
live?
The Faculties of some of our Colleges
do little better in this respect. They
letthe villain who perpetrates the mischief
60 unwhipt of Justice, while the honest,
obedient, poor student is taxed to pay the
damages. There are instances, we admit,
where sufficient testimony cannot be produced
TO fasten the guilt upon any ndivduaIs but
in great majority of cases there is little
doubt in the mind Of the Faculty, who are
the offenders. and tits the fear of becoming
unpopular with The class, or of giving ofense
to wealthy parents which, in too many in
stances, prevents thorough investi CATION
Here is radical wrong, which must be re-
formed, or we may hope in vain for honest
men, and righteous laws.
True, our schools have the name of Nor
atty. Our superintendent say to teachers,
tolerate no profanity, no obscenity, no I'M
morality This is as it should be; but no
sooner does teacher take decided stand,
and carry out these Instructions than there
is complaint made against him, and he may
think himself fortuna if he is not summa-
rily removed from office!
Very little can be done, by way of reform
in this matter, until parents will cooperate
with, and sustain teachers in this work. Let
our Schools and Colleges take a higher stand
on this question. Let every pupil be re.
quired to live up to the great law of right
and we should soon see glorions result
Our institutions of learning ought to be
so endowed that teacher can be sustained
and supported if some of his pupils do leave
Then, the bread and butter question will
not step in to decide between starvation and
duty Al

A SWEET Vo1cE-A sweet voice is iudis-
pensable to woman; do not think can
describe it. 1t is not inconsistent with great
vivacity, but is often the gift of the gentle
and unobtrusive. Loudness or rapidity is
incompatible with it. 1t is low, but not gut
tural- deliberate, but not slow. Every syl.
liable is distictly heard, but they follow each
other like drops from fountain. 1t is like
the cooling of the dove, not shrill, nor even
clear, but uttered with that subdued and
touching readiness which every voice assumes
in moments of deep feeling or tenderness
1t is glorious gift in woman-I should be
won by it more than by beauty-more even
than by talent, were it possible to separate
them. But never heard deep, sweet voice
from a weak woman. 1t is the organ of
strong feelings and of thoughts which
have lain in the bosom till their sacredness

LITTLE CHILDREN.-Whoever takes lit
tie child into his love, may have very roomy
heart, but that child will fill it all. The
children that arc in the world keep us from
growing old and cold; they cling to our gar
meuts with their little hands, and impede our
progress to pctrifaction; they win us back
with their pleading eyes from cruel care =
they never cucumber us at all. A poor old
couple, with no one to love them, is a most
pitiful picturc but howell with a small face
to fll u broken pane, here and there, is rob-
bed of its desolateness.
