hut been cultivated. Those two leading
principles nhould novor bo jcpnratcd, ns is
too ufiuu tho cake. '1'liui in a certain clnts,
may bo seen a development of tho intellec
tual faculties, while their moral onra nro in
a manner dormant; in another tints just
tho reverse it tho cato tho moral prvdom
inating over tho intellectual ; and what Is
more ilcplornble, a third, nnd I am sorry to

ther a moral nor an iutulluctuai education;
but of all claiteii, thoio pretend to an edu
cation, a majority of whom havo more of an
inlfllectunl. than of a moral culture. TbW
should not bo so. No pnrticulnr class of
facultiet nhould bo nurtured to tho detri
ment orothera of equal importance. Tho
whole, mind should bo operated upon in
such a way, so that every organ would
have a balancing and mutually austarig
power in it opposite
Iti n former ago of tho world, scholnttio
nhilotonhr.wiilauliad for its object thn "do-
velopmenl" of "tho reasoning" powers, and
Uio cultivntlon or tlio tnooiogicai aiuuies,
engaged tlio entire attention of tho tiinhin
ries of learning. It was, a llallam sap-x,
" In iU general principle, an ntlinnco be

range tho orthodox tytlom ol tho church,
tuch a authority had made it, according to
tho rules and methods of llm Arittotvlian
dialectics, and aometimea upon pretuiaeH
tunnlied bv metaplu ileal re.itonintf." If
at this early period in modorn clwluntiou,
a certain amount of acholiutio culturu wn
requiiito to tho attainment of what wna then
dcemctl to be a sullicivnt development of tho
mind, tho modorut havo "paised to tho op.
ttoiilo extreme." No oxertion is now spa
red to instruct children in tho elements of
scienco and loiters. nUo in tlio avocations
of every day life puihaptat thotapriflce of
"moral anu physical supremacy." Shrewd
ness In huhiucst it ofum mittnkeii for a gen
uine education. It U cotitidored by aome,
of great importance In the development of
"mental cnej-gkt and activity." This is a
great error, aud a groat detriment to the
correct training of torno minds. 'litis clatt
of children grow up to bo what Is vulgarly
termed, "dashing business young men,"
who aro very conspicuous characters In all
commercial citlot. Tlio cultivation of tho
intellectual oueralea nlone, without due ro-
gard being paid to tlio healthful improve
ment or tlio moral tacuiiiea, it, pcrnaps, ono
of tho greatest miilakos committed by par
ent and loachor. 'Hie result of this sys

class known in uvery community, us tho
profanum vidgut. Thoy may bo possessed
of a great amount of knowledge, ehrcwd

liko a ship nt sea without it rudder, which
is as perfect as may be.ln every other partic
ular; shols.for want of this important Instru
ment, blown about in nil directions by con
trary winds and currents, and is liablo to
be broken to fragment, nt any moment,
against somo hidden rock or roef. Tho
moral fucultlos wcro given to man aa a
guido, n shield, and a talisman, ngaiust tlio
predominance of a minguided intolllgonco
and ungovornnblo passions. Kxnmples nro
not wanting to ehow "tho greatest soourges
of our rnco nro men of gigantic, cultivntod
intellects." Hotter that children remain in
ignornnco, than to havo an education whioli
is likoly to inflict misery on thcmselvcH uiul
ntl.orn. Tho cultivation of tho intellectual
faculties alouo. constitutes no aufllolont
miarantv that tho aubioct of it will become
either a virtuous man, a good neighbor or
n iMiifnl nltiori. Dr. Ilumnhrov bbvh, "most
men leave out, or regard as of very littlo
importanco, sumo of tho most osBontial olo
monts" of a correct odncntton. " They
seem to forgot that a child has a conscionco

"Tho timplo atudy of man's moral nature,

to tho conclusion, that any system of pop

which doet not make special jroviiion for

No ono will dispute tlio fuel, that children
