was a strike against New Jersey in

Five rlinute Educational Talks.
UNCONSCIOUS TUITION, OR TEACHING BY
UNCONSCIOUS INFLUENCE.


BY unconscious tuition | mean that
part of teachers work which he does
when he seems not to be doing anything
at his work at all. 1t has appeared to
me that some of the most nutritive aud
effective functions of an instructor are
really performed while he seems least
to be instructing. TO apprehend these
fugitive subtle forces, playing through
energy, and if possible to bring them
within the range of practical dealing
and discipline, is the scope of my pres
ent design. If the topic should fail OF
entertainment or profit it will at least
yield me this negative advantage, that
it will not tempt me to traverse any
preexisting debate, or prejudice, or dog
ma.
The central thought of my doctrine
assumes that the ultimate or total object
of the teachers profession is not the COM
murication of knowledge; or even, ac-
cording to the favorite modern formula
the stimulating of the knowing faculty,
if by the knowing faculty we understand
faculty quite distinguished and separate
from the believing faculty, the sensi.
bility, and the will. 1t has been general.
ly admitted, for long time, that educa.
ton does not consist in inserting facts
in the pupils memory, like specimens
in cabinet or freight slowed in the
hold of ship. Education does not con.
sist in provoking bare intellectual dex-
terity, any more than in presenting as
cerlained Truth to the intellectual per-
ceptions; or in both together. Edu.
cation involves appeals to faith, to feel.
ing, to volition. So does the true train.
ing of the mind involve an engagement
OF the affections, including taste or the
sense of beauty, and love or the sense
# good, both The minds freedom and its
harmony being dependent on healthy
heart. Aud so again, the understanding
and the feelings wait OH that brave
executor, the will; and nobody can be
wise who leaves its scholarship neglected
In word, education is not the train.
ing of the mind but the training of the
man. One-sidedness has been the vice
of all systems of education hitherto
and every legitimate advance has been
an approach to the recognition Of the
unity and indivisibility of the educated
being as a living soul.
Let ia proceed, on the ground of this
principle, with our proper theme. My
main propositions are these three 1st
That there is an educating power issu-
ing from the teacher, not by voice or by
immediate design, but silent and invol.
untary, as indispensable to his true
function as any element in it. I'd. That
this unconscious tuition is yet no product
of caprice, or of accident, but takes it's
quality from the undermost substance
OF the teachers character. And Sd. That
as it is an emanation flowing from the
very spirit Of his own life, so it is also
an influence acting iusensibly to form
the life of the scholar.

which presume may have been some
time disclosed to him, in his dealings
with almost any truth in its more secret
relations, viz, that all true wisdom in.
