Influence of Newspapers.

A school teacher, who had been en-
gagged long time in his profession,
and witnessed the influence OF news.
paper upon the minds of family and
children, writes as follows: 81 have
found it to be universal fact without
exception, that scholars of both sexes
and all ages, who have access to news
papers at home when compared with
those who have not, are:
Better readers, excellent in pro.
nounciation, and consequently read
more understandingly.
2 They are better spoilers and define
words with ease and accuracy.
3 They obtain practical knowledge OF
geography in about half the time it re-
quires the others, as the newspapers
have made them acquainted with the
location of important places, OF no
tions, their government and doings on
the globe.
4 They are better grammarians TOR
having become 80 familiar with every
variety of style in the newspaper, from
the common-placed advertisement 70
the finished and classical orxtion CT the
statesman, they more readily compre'
bend the meaning OF the text, aud con-
stantly analyze its construction with
accuracy.
5 Those young men who have for
wears been readers of newspapers are
always taking the lead in debating So
cieties, exhibiting more extensive
knowledge, greater variety OF subjects,
and expressing their views with greater
flueucv. clearness and correctness.

of the difficulties attending the accom-:

to many influences of another character,

Third-Their ambiguity Of language tends tc
