The flame lectn low to have reached this par t. O! may it worl ip the resolutions of you my country men, lo 1; audable an undertaking. Pnlymni, the father of the celebrated Epam londas, is f«iid to have spent the molt ot the lot une he could give his lon upon his education he Lquel ol his life lhews to what infinite advan age it was applied. Would this noble spirit in L ine vour bosoms, would ye devote p -rt oi im noperty which mult be their'sat your diliolution o their education, you would not only diicliaig. !ie duty of parent?, but that of men anxious to he profperitv of our country—ye would make ; nore weighty, a more inirinlically valuable dona ion to the community by such an application h;in by bequeathing 'he molt affluent, the molt ex (-(five foitunes. Your children would be th 'iops ol )our old age, an honor to themselves ant n ide of their cuunti \. Wcie men to think astht ncient Spartans formerly did, refpefting the edu ation ot youth, no conlideration could prevail oi hem to omit a inattci of such public utility.— That wife and prudent people conceiving the Spar an youth to be more immediately the childret »f their country, th;;n those of their refpettive pa ems, eitablilhv d seminaries, into which they ien :i their,yon.h —In re tlwy iei.iai:ied until the ag> 'Imaturuy, under thecire ol able millers, an< rom hence", as the inclination of cach tiiiefted aunched into the employmeni ot their country.

A moment's attention must convince you, that no provision you can make lor your children, will more amply answer your wi flies, more amply repay the toils and diificulties which mult be encountered by youth in the at tainment ot any, kind of knowledge, than a jjood and virtuous education. P A R 1 S, May 10 THE houfeof the Jacobins is to be fold, therefore they must seek out for another spot ou which to hold tbeir fittings—with a changeof place, it is hoped they will change their mca fnrcs—The universal cry is, the Ja cobins have ruined France — havs latlely moved that the protec tioi: of the State (ball be put into the hands of what they call a national le gion, to be conipoled of Invalids !

Nothing can afford a clearer proof that governmental reformation is far behind national reformation, than the principles which the Governors gene ral in the L'ow Countries have dared to publish Kdilfeminate in their pro clamations.
