EDUCATION what delight we turn
from the barren and sterile field of government
al and political affairs, to the more conpeoial
subject of the Education and Improvement of
the youth Of our State, we need not tell. All
our feelings revolt at the turmoil OF faction,
and the excuses Of the dominant party, and
we can only mourn and grieve over the condi-
ton Of national and state affairs. But, there
is something else to think, to write, and con-
slider about something, now, more important
even than Conventions, or Military bills Turn
then to another column of to days Gazette,
and read the Address to the Parents and Pub
lie of Virginia, signed by the honorea names
which are appended to it-headed by that Of
Robert E. Lee, noac Teacher of Youth-the
noblest occupation to which he can devote his
faculties and his intellect Read the lessons of
wisdom there given. Ponder over the excel
lent advice rendered. Read it yourselves, and
let your children especially your boys, read it
in your presence Bid them remember that
such man as Robert f. Lee exhorts them to
build their characters and rely for future pros
perity, honor, and happiness, alone, upon the
foundations of truth, self-control, obedience,
labor, and the blessed and holy Influences of
Christianity. If the young mon of Virginia
were all reared up to manhood under the prin-
ciples OF this Address, what State it would
be How elevated-how distinguished No
matter what the hand Of oppression might in-
fict-no matter what might be the poverty or
suHerings of our pcople-we would then chaI-
lenge the admiration of the world
