influence Of Newspapers.

A sCHoOL-TEACHER, who had been
engaged long time in his profession,
and witnessed the influence of a news
paper upon the minds of family and
children, writes as follows: II have
found it to be universal fact, without
exception, that scholars of both sexes
and all ages, vino have access to news.
papers at home, when compared with
those who have not, are:
l. Better readers, excellent in pro-
nunciation, and consequently read
more Understandings.
2. They are better spoilers, and de-
fine words with ease and accuracy.
8. They obtain practical knowledge
of geography in about half the time it
requires of others, as the newspapers
have made them acquainted with the
location of important places, of Ma
tions, their government and doings on
the globe.
4. They are better grammarians for,
having become so familiar with every
variety of style in the newspaper, from
the commonplace advertisement to
the finished and classical Grafton of the
statesmen, they more readily compre-
bend tho meaning of the text, and con-
stantly analyze its construction with
accuracy.
5. Those young men who have for
years been readers of newspapers are
always taking the lead in debating So
cieties, exhibiting a more extensive
knowledge, q greater variety of SUBJ
jects, and expressing their views with
greater 1uency, clearness and correct
ness"

and often gave concerts on that holy day.
His most intimate friends were soon
those who disregarded the Sabbath,
who thought preaching and attendance
at church old fogy customs, which
were fast giving way to the more en-
lightened idea that Sunday was . day
for rest and pleasure, for visiting
friends, driving out ON the road, at
tending cultured gatherings, listening
to classic music, and so on, and 30 ON,

thought these bad habits were not

argued to himself when conscious that
his term of service there would not be
long-continued If the firm knew his
habits:
"Well, they could not dispense with

The strong attachment of subscri-
bers to we'll conducted newspapers
is fully confirmed by publishers.
,"Stop my paper" words of dread

terrOr after q paper has been estHb-
lished for term of years. So long
as. Q paper pursues just, hOnora-
BILE and judiclous course, meeting
the wants of its customers in all re-
spects, the ties Of friendship between
the subscribers and the paper are as
hard to break by an outside third
party, as the link which binds old
friends in business or social life.
Occasional defects and errors in a
newspaper are overlooked by those
who have become attached to it,
through its perusal for years. They
sometimes become dissatisfied with
il on account of something which
has slipped into its columns, and
may stop taking it; but the absence
OF the familiar sheet at their homes
and offices for q few weeks becomes
an insupportable privatiOn, and
they hasten to take it again, and pos
sibly apologize for having it stop.

to merit this continued support.
