enemies gather around—when" sickness fans
upon the heart—when the world is dark
and cheerless—is the , time to try true friend
ship. The heart that has been touched with
true friendship will redouble its efforts,
when the friend is sad and in trouble--ad
rersity 'tries real friendship. They who run
from the scenes of distress, betray their hy
pocrisy. and prove that interest only moves
them. If 'you have a friend who loves you
—who has studied your interest and happi
ness—be sure to sustain him in adversity.—
Let him feel that his former kindness is ap

A USEFUL EDUCATION.
An Addi-ese delivered ty the Rey. D. Moser,
before Me AMlonotv Literary Soctety of
the Pine Genre Academy, on the 2tith of
March A. D. 1857.
My dear friends, as yod have been pleased
to honor me, as your orator, at your fifth
Anniversary Festival ; and as weliavo been
permitted to sec tire time on which-it "ens
appointed, and being now assembled under
such interesting
,eireumstances, as gather
around us bers'iltis evening; I shall •en-,
deavor to Anunply with your' earnest and
kind *citation.
Arse to appologies on such ,or similar
ixeasiossor I ►n4st nevertheless bp alto lred to
express the apprehensioti, that by some
ineADlSl44.4kt_l4.4 pout 1131.t0
expect room, than my abilities and time,
amidst circumstances, In Oepaiing these
temarka ; will allow me to present as wor
thy of your consideration.
May the theme re are about to consider,
however imperfect the ituisilcr of it.t.elucida•
tiOn, be deemed of sufficient importance to
engage the attention and regard, of all in
this large and respectable audience.
Thu theme will Ist an attempt to answer
the question :
What consiteute* a uacful Education
I shall not attempt to bestow any vague
lad discriminate eulogy, or lximban:ic pan
ivric on this subject: wilieh, indeed,could
be entitled to very little realiect, in the esti
mation of any intelligent person or audience.
Tire "gloat itl hind, howeier is indbed an
all important one, if the real nature, aim
and object of it, are properly understood and
presented. pit it, ippeale Unit there are
many even among those who consider them
selves, as belorigitlg•tti tVe llte . rary clsseis
of ptrions ; who - seam almost entirely to
overlook the very essentials of a useful edu
cation. IVhat I now ilUude to is the dispo
sition. to consider a child or you.h well ede
nested. if he has taken a certain course in
reading, writing, and Arithmetic : or if ho
should have aspired after something more,
and has nisd, some little advancement, in
some of the higher branches of education
also, may signify to idni, that he is a perfect
scholar indeed.
. I nod scarcely say that such i ciae would
only be an illustration, of the confirmed c6n
elusion, in the judgment And witianatite of
all well informed minds, that such in one
ip not, euly-uansh deluded. in-his isiaginstiou
but that be must be awfWly Ignorant. But
even when the education of the young is ear
ried forward in • regular, natural end proper
manner; when the rudimental branches arc
iigavdedr:ili they ever should be;ta the
lowndition of all usbaequent ainairemeMa
when nb undue ham is tussle "to Rajah an
education," but when prOper pains'aro
ta
ken to expand, enlarge and strengthen the
intellect, and stem the mind With a knowl
edgeof the various Indult branches of a
respdar education : se that the pupil shall
be able to rehearse with precision all the
rules, which sawn any particular branch of
seletteli—this would not yet be all that is
comprehended in • useful education. In •
word, it is not suificient to sharpen the ifi
tellect end furnish it with operative powers;
*thorn a proper guidance and control ; in
Such s case, would not such powers prove
operative for evil rather than for good I for
evil to its posemmor, as well as to others 3
What I wadi to say is simply this, intellec
tual or menhir education alone, comes far
tort of the essential attributes of a truly?
useful education—in other words milesiyou
educce the moral facidtrea—their conscien
ces and hearts—you have no just reason to
expect that they n ill he properly fitted for
usefullness in thin life, or far 'etianal bliss
and glory in the life to come. No, my res
pected friends, knowledge, apart from reli
gion, will most asuredly deceive all, who de
pond in it. „
This assertion, If it wore no&ilsaiT, could
be abundantly establirlted, from theta and
history, &oncoming the depravity of human

the general conduct Drell heddels—and es .:

with wickedness and folly.
A man may reach the Itigdest excellence
without improving his utoralti , or religion ; so
in the sphere of intellect erl science, there
are 'rum. departments in wlluch men may
stand unrivalled, without beihg advanced in
any one of the attributes, of a worthy or a
liable mind.
It in not out intention to say anything,
which would seem to under'value sound or
wholesome ftnowledge—by no means ; it is
only out. d'eSixe to show, how it elan& rela

conversion, that ho may be regarded as a
"new creature:" the natural enmity to God
and virtue having been subdued, and in its
place, love for acid, and love for man; a love
thit"wOrketh no ill to his neighbor." The
time of life most appropriate to thin great
reformation, is youth. " Remember now,
alit creator in the days of thy feidtli." To
which corresponds that pnme.prrcpt of our
Savour, "Seek ykiirta.tha kin of God." .
Here, precisely here, is our Pdfsit
the time for thii tefortnstiti, this great
change ; and it is so, at least in great part,
becianse youth is the season Ihr education -
'
and unless this great change !wade, what ,
is education but the development et the
worst principle ilLnature e:mity
Education in its most extensive meaning,
comprises every kind of influent*, which ex
erts a moulding or modifying power upon
life and character.' Hence from the earliest
deem of the mentle powers, some kind of
influence will be exerted upon the mind of
the child snit rising youth, f.,ittior for good,
or for evil ; and that allsilosk every when—
In the family, in the church in the school,
and in the company and general circum
stances by which,they may be surrounded.
Much will depend in these circumatances,lor
the character and usefulness of the man or
the ii9inan iii failure life. Ii how careful
i•ight all to be,hord thhTeenduct themselves
in the preseded or children stud the rising
youth 1
For the Mgr% el t ucidilliiifn of this settee int"

ilia loge of Cno'ivi t edlfie fo'r its oWn' t ake,
which should be encourkged. The mind

The mind loves to look on WC fight of
and to roam in the freedom of its faculties.
Tina is especially the'ease in early life ; and
it is appointed fur the best ends. For in:
stitneo ga children will not bo at rest, but,
by ceasimis nutlon acquire the ready use of
all their limbs ; so the mug: in youth by an
innate restlessness, trier; itself in every way
and ought no more to be hindered, than the
boy ought to.he.t;optlned. Education should
be to the mind, what exercise is to the body
—an instrument for developing its powers;
find therefore, for many rim veiripOt ftteki
should be, prosentsnl to the mind—some to
