Another element in the students char

the wise aud good, and lor whose culture

generous hea5I A common analysis OF
the human mind gives ~ these three
prime aud radical eIcmeuts, Intelligence,
sensitiyily aud will, lhe wiI iuoIuding
the moral aud religions, IN mans consii-
tuition. BY sensitiyity as one Thug, there
is implied the social natnp, with its good
aud kindly heart that responds with deli
icacy and certainty to the fair want of
others, aud shrinks with clear Aversion
from whatever may wound, unnecessari-
ly, the sensitive nature of another. The
best trained intellect, il harsh OF Grabbed,
if inhumane or unkiud, i naughty or ar
rogant, If said of genial temper, tha
charm and grace that constitutes the true
gentleman and the true gentlewomau,
can excite no real and compacent esteem
in the heart of Jesus or the good. Large
brains, developed with mountain force,
are no absolute security against mean
ness, or unkindness in the home circle, on
in the school room, or even vanity or cru
city in the social life. Fine scholars are
sometimes reckless or careless Of the hap
piness Of their mates, 1t is hard work
to love such persons. The kindly heart
is esteemed True in the ordinary ongo-
ings of life, we may not lay large cm-
phasis upon this part ofan education, it
is so quiet or passive thing, unnoticed,
as it noiselessly softens the asperilies that
would other wise disturb the harmony of
social communion, preventing discord OF
i'll feeling, suggesting patience, torbear-
ance and mutual CONGESTION, in a manner
SO unobtrusive as not to be noticed, per-
haps, but when the common routine of
school and young life is disturbed when
selfishness and pride have come in to
chafc or yex, when seli4nterest stub.
born will are in clear and flint collision,
creating home or school Jars, alternating

Of unusual joy and the heart cries out for
sympathy, then this latent sentiment O
humane and generous virtue, oat ulers
itself, and an may see The very soul, as
tenderly, amiable, gushing uat as self is
forgotten to make others happy. Intel
lect without heart, is an arctic region, icy
aud grand, over white amorsi splendors
may sheen or play, bot when no green
thug or life and beauty may gremnate
Bot IN the humane and generous heart
as il lovingly hindics the mighty forces Of

IN its warm impulses we can couiide, re-
