Entron: The tveo last'nutubers of the REPORTER contain, 'what; pur port to', be a criticism and review. of an address,delivered._ by me before the Bradfor County Teachers Asso 'ciation at Sheshequin, and solicited by that body for publication.. Those, liowo,r6:, who have read the address referred to, as well as the strictures of " GLIW: - 5.," willbe `reminded of the little boy whet I " shot at the pidgcon and kilted the crow." Chil dren with fervid irnaginationi and reason in embryo, seek Out secluded nooks, gather there broken crockery and old tin pens, and In the ec i staoy of their juvenile entLuttiastn, embark n"on 113 journey of life ; so oar worthy friend, in the innocence; aim plieity, and unsoiled mot - talky of his nature, as joyous as Pickwick's, and 1 .__ . ._. . yet as gole - mii as Pecksnifl in his most reverential moments—sits down in 'sha l t he considers a shady Spot, collects' all the broken-np' literary rubbish frpro,Adana down, and essays the Itt. of criticism. oskilled, as Yet,:to shine as the polished master of his tirade, but ambitious 4nd ener getic, he. slashes away with a ._two edged ,sword, smaz4hing - where he cannot 'cut, and, mote skilled in the fain ted Ilogie. of billingsgate 1 than in the sharp edged rhetoric of Ruskip, leaves ragged edges wherever, he strikes a blow. Selecting the ob jtc!.. of his satire where there is plen ty 14f l'o3lll for just: criticism, he is yet. to o'hlind to see real defects, but unprincipled enough to assume such gross and glaring ones as! he sup , poses himself capable of refuting. " Non i:.atzsa pro cause " is the resort only of the dull,- -the dishonest, the venomous, - the long, leas, literary lizard; who licks area beslobbers his prey first with his fatted tongue, that it may be palatable to' his own vitiated 'taste. Conscious, Mr. Edi tcr, that there is little' honor r to be* secured by throwing] mud On a scav-, enger, I Shall content ruysdf in point ing out some of the unjust' impute tiens and 'glaring errors ` , 4hich are so-dishonestly attributed to my ad dress. While I take nothing back, it is but just to, say that I accepted the invitation of the Assecialion to address them with , diffidence, was surprised when my bumble efforts were solicited for publication, and now I am-astonished that ' l it is wor thy So much notice and discussion. It is charged,"- ` first; that I attach un due _importance to education; and tbis - is attempted to be'prc l ed by as., sinning that education consists mere ly in ihtelleetnaltulturc and objec tive knowledge addressed solely to the intellect, and that I tOe this view (2f it in my address. Ibis is errone ous. Webster gives the word_ ethics - tion a brOnder significatij and I was careful to 'say that education is the jUst ' and duo development of all the powers, facultieS and ftspira tions._ of the human organiim. In this sense I repeat: " Education is, the first and highest dutyof mans education is the discipline of the in tellect, the establishmentof the prin! , , ciples," and the regulatiOn of the heart.l I A Man is only I truly edW. (Wed when he is developed physical ly, intellectually; and morally. Man can honor God most acce ptably, and serve himself most efficiently, by de veloping to the utmost all the powers lie has given him. - - 1 It, is next charged that I counsel too muchlzeal in thia eae. I en -7 dorse the sentiments of the . Wise man:'ilHe who is' d%nt in' 'his businesi shall stand b re kings.!' A teacher that has no energy, ambi tion or purpose, is a nonerity. . Only let him be-sure that he is right, and then' the hotter his zeal, the more de termined his purpose thahig. h_ei his ambitions the better, all foolish 'ad =Mao about being aurrousided INIII C. T.

Fortified by the assent of such men as these,—everywhere recognized as the standard authority on the Subject— " think I am in no danger 'of being considered heretical by afftr+ing that man should "follow the • dictates of reason rather than of blind instinct of intellect;rather than. 6161:nut." " G. W. S." would get a de per and truer insight into things by reading the above authors "carefully .

S." devotes his 1 " second article " almost exclusively to the 'Motto 'tknOw thyself," and, his dis-I section thereof proves, unmistakably, three things; first, that . he bas heard of many ancient authors, hut mover I read them even as "carefully " as he Aid my address; secondly; that he can quote better things from them than he can write himself; thirdly, that when words do n't Mean what he wants them to,' he has ,' " cheek" enough to assume that they mean what ,he considers himself competent to rfute. All of which illustrates what.' a- very interesting individual this" 9-. W. S." must necessarily be. Dear sir, I did refer to the heathen motto; I still point to it with rever ence, and characterize " it as the source of all knowledge, the means of all happiness ,and improvement. In so' doing, I do not therefore deify self. , • I would only tit Self tcj worship Deity. Man's happiness depends upon the perfection,of_himseif in all his powers, attributes and ,facult:es.
