peared and made few happy remarks

advisable to withhold his speech until
their next annual celebration, when
he promised them, if they desired it
(although he had never made speech
to one lady, to make one to as many

fortunate as to hear him at their next

condition, with large additions to the

Both teachers and pupils are heartily
enlisted in the glorious work of build

and instrumentalities that are being
used for the amelioration and salvation
of the people are zealously guarded
and fostered by the society of old Mt.
Carmel. The people are proverbial
for their good works, intelligence and
hospitality.
The benedictiOn was pronounced,
the crowd dispersed, and thus ended
one of the most enjoyable days we ever
spent. We could say much more. but
close our somewhat disconnected
sketch of this pleasant affair, by re-
turning thanks to the many kind
friends there for marked courtesy and
attention shown at Mt. Carmel To

hope, at no distant day, to accept the
kind invitation to share more Of their
genuine hospitality.

etc. To be useful, the education of
the head alone would not do,-the
heart must be properly trained also
1t is the duty of parents to teach their
children in spiritual things, and not to
depend upon others to teach them.
But as parents do not always discharge
this duty Sunday schools are neces-
sity. Showed the difference between
the opportunities of early times and
the present in training children. Stub
bornness and restlessness are not OBJ
jectionable in children--if they are
properly balanced-in after years they
would tend to make them men and
women Of frmness and decision of
character-not putty men to be dented
into any shape. His leading thought
was that children should be taught to
look upon the beautiful, in nature, in
philosophy, literature, and in every
thing. The true gentleman does not
look upon the deformity and rough
exterior of his fellows, but strives to
see only the beautiful. Beauty has
more power than all else beside. To
turn from the contemplation of the
ugly makes US better, makes us happy.
We only attempt an outline of bis
somewhat novel yet deeply interesting
thread of thought, to give some idea
of his discourse Of an hours length.
1t was delivered in a plain practical
and we predict that some of
the solemn and impressive truths he
enumerated found Judgment in many
young hearts that will prove to be

Many a man is rich without money.
Thousands of mem with nothing in
their pocket, and thousands without
even a pocket, are rich. A man born
with good sound cohsti u IN, a good

Good bones are better than gold /;
tough muscles than silver; and nerves
that flash fire and carry energy TO
every function are better than houses

tateto have theeright kind of father
