on him as on the sure road to ruin. was ad-.
visa to get married with a vim of correcting hie
hahita. This he consented to do. if the right
poison offered. He accordingly paid his addres
ses to a Miss Gamble, After acme menthe at
tention, he asked her - hand in marriage; she re
plied—" Mr. Wirt, I, have trccn well aware of
your intentions for some time back, and should
have given you to understand that your visits and
attentions were not acceptable, had I not kecip
ideated fhe affection which you' evinced for.me.
But I cannot yield my assent until you make - the
a pledge never to taste, touch or handle any . in
..tox.otting drink," This reply to Mr. Wirt was
as unexpected as it was novel. His reply was.
that he regarded the preposFeron as a bar to all
• further consideration of the sulject, and haft her.
Her course toward him was the same as ever—
hia, resentment and neglect. In the course of e•
few weeks ho went again, and again snitched her
hand. But her reply was, her mind was ensile
op. He heel= indignant, and
,regarded the
terms she' proposed as intuiting a. his honor and
vowed it should be the last matting they should
ever have. He took to drinking rem - Mend worse,
and seemed to run headlong to ruin: One day,
while lying in the outskirts of the city, near *lit
tle grocery or-grog-shop, dead druok; a young
lady whom it is not neceseary.to name, was pas
sing thatwaV to her home, not far off, and beheld
him with his' face upturned to the rays of the
scorching sun. She took her handkerchief, with
her own name marked upon it and placed it over
his face. After hr had reensined in that way
SOIVO hours, ha was awakened, and hia thirst
being so greakhe went into the little groemp cir
grog shop to get a drink, when he discovered the,
handkerchief, at Which he looked; and the name
that was on it. After pulsing a few minutes be
exclaimed—" Great God ! who has loft this with
me! Who pieced this on my face!" one
knew, Ile dropped the glass exclaiming, ' Enough!
Enough I" He retired instantly from the stow,
forgetting Ida thirst, but cot the. debauch, the
handkerchief or the lady, vowing, if Gad gave
him strength, never to touch, taste, or handle ti
toiicsting drinks.
To meet Miss G. again was the hardest exert
of his life. If he met her in her carriage, or on
foot, he would dodge round the nearest center.
She at last addressed him - a. note under her own
hand, inviting him to her house, which he final
ly gathered courage enough to accept. He told
her if *he still bore affection for !aim; he would
agree to her own terms : 'Her reply was; ....My
conditions are now 'what they ever have been."
"Then!' said the disenthrsifed, Wirt, of, accept
them."
They were soon married and from: that day
he kept his word, and his effai-s brightened, white

for the spheres which you may he called upon to

life, js to %cm a perfect triumph--every pulsation
of joy in your-bosoms, meets with a sympathizing
one in theirs. And, oh fifitis in your power,
by continual application to your studies, and up
rightness of conduct in life, to repay thorn in some
mesnre, for all their kindness and tender solici
tude, how incumbent upon you is the duty !
You are also called Upon' uurselves
with zeal and energy to you citizens
of this glorious Republic, in at we may

be the better enabled to discharge the duties of an
American citizen. I Thank my God thet it is mV
happy privilege to say that, in no portion of the
Globe is there a single country where learning is

which have beheld our infancy' and yo ih, are
happy to assimilate their Governments to ' re.
We, unlike almost every other people der
the sun, ere called upon by our free and libera in
stitutions to think'and act for Ourselves. O' the
intelligence of out people depends the pros p erity
of our Government; anti if we, by ignoranare
blinded to nor interests, we cannot judge c 0 rect.

upon to 'consult concerning the welfare of your

could render tin service,—or perchance, to manage

your bride, the offspriqg would surely be ruin and

This duty is ales incumbent upon you as liver:

'arts and sciences surpass oven their former excel
lence in "Egypt's palmy days.
When we reflect, far a moment, on the im
mense revolution that hris taken place in the world
of Letters,' within the last four centuries, mind
panties and wonders at the march of mind. - A brief
history of the progress of Letters will afford you a
faineillustration of this idea. From the period of
the downfall of the Roman Empire, for one thou
sand years after, a cloud of gloom appears to have
settled upon the minds of 'lntoeine wars
made all Europe quake, and Science and Art
and Letters,:siekened and drooped and died. The
clergy alone, during this long night of ignorance,
fed the feeble , lamp of learning ; sod they, finding
it •inest powerful auxiliary in , guiding them - in
the path to power, were content to hold the ex
clusive possession until the fifteenth century gave
birth to that "great disseminator of learning, the
'MIT or raircrisro,'which deprived them of this
exclusive right, and spread knowledge broadcast;
over the lend. But even after this period, ifS
march seas for sometime slow ; the change was
too great for'them to grasp at all its lienefitsl they.
'had been so long in the dark that this sudden light
blinded and confounded them.
The influence of this Art has ,treen felt net
only in every department of the Arts and Sciences,
but men
. in the social circle itself, where it has
operated as a partial check to the social principle.
For in those days when letters were unknown, the
only means of conveying information was by
oral discourse; and 'whenever any one was for
tunate enough to catch an idea, be would take it
to the most public Mart.'and there r.tt iil it out to
all who might he disposed to listen, Whores;
now, Society consists of two classes, the one
writing, the other reading. And letters are the
almost exclusive medium whereby interchange of
thought on important subjects is (greeted. How.
ever much the advocate of the social principle

a . If this checking of • the social principle he con,
salved an objection to the Art, the Press has been
predticlite of many advantages which will corn
, pensatelor it an hundred fold.
The butrian race; prior to the invention of prin
ting, was divided intia!detactied farMliesii groups
and tribes; they conceived these to constitute
their World, that beyond these they had nothing
to think' of, nothing to do, Their progress in
knowledge was necessarily slow, is tradition and
manuscript, were the only means whereby they
could ascertain what their; forefathers bad ' dunti
and se but few could read, and fester write, this
latter modo of communication was necessarily
very limited. Then the Press became tho great
communicating medium, and made of mankind
one . large family, combinations of learning took
place, and from tole period the Arts and Sciences
date their onward meter. By the iintno.nee rev.
elution produced by the Press the faculties of man
1 by which.he is enabled, to expertment, idavestiaatis
and dive into the mysteries which surround out
ward nature as well as his own, were vastly enlarg.
ed and improved. The Ancients, it is true ; left to
posterity a rich legacy contaioing many 'valuable
facto in Natural Philosophy ; but during the mid.
die ages this was confined to the feiv, and they,,
by their single-handed effee ta t cocild e ff ect nothing.
The very moment, however ; interchange of.
thought was effected by means of the Press, Bei , :
ence bid atien to infancy and sprang into maturity.i
In those Jays Natural PlailosophY was a compact

all that was heal known of Astronomy, Botany,
Chemistry, Physics and Metaphysics. Soon
however, by the tnarch or improdementr these

id our day it requires the application of a life` to
learn all that is known of any ono of them:

the disadvantages of this plan ate most obvious, as

teach the same branch to others, who neccesur. 1
erily.lsain it even more superficially and item—
fectly;• and the necessary consequence ids' that.)
they come out i - af•Zol with a wens smattering
of what you by your plan understand thoroughly.
Having thus briefly and cursorily glanced over
the obligations that are resting upon you, and the
advantages which you posiess, I bad propoSed to
examine hastily the various branches which you
in your course are called upon to study. buC time
and ace warn me that I most restrict myself.—
Consequeo , she !only examine two of these;
which are to my mind the most important, viz.
the Classics and Histo.
There is perhaps no reach of instruction upon'
which there is so grey diversity of opinion, s or,
isle in regard to the (study of the classics. Many
persons advocating the)principle of totally exclu
ding 1 hem from our S9hoole, as utterly usel'ess—
while others again, contend as strongly for their
universal adoption. l tiow; to my mind, an inters
mediate course, or copromise; between these two ,
opinions, is the pro er system to adupt. These
are, in our Schools, two classes of students!; the
one going for a limited period to qualify himself
for some one of the Mechanic arts, the Merc6ntile
business, by\aome one nj the various avocaticins in
life, which does not call far a knowledge of the
claveice. Thu other f ghiSig for an indefinite period,
with the-iritention of evikitag of himself a fiaished
Scholia or prof-seismal man. To the first of these,
I conceive, the stud,r , of the elasics, would not
only ha perfectly -dseless, but a direct injury, as
theroby he would boccupying time which might
be used much mare rofitably in the ,pursuit of
such studies as his bu'Ciness requires' him to be
acquainted with. But :cisthe finished Scholar, the
classics are absolutely necessary, and aro produc—
tive of infinite advantages. ,
• In. the first place, the claksica put into the hand
,of. the Scholar, a key, whe eby he is enabled to
unlock the mpueries • envelope Most of the
Modern languag es , s well' is the S.:kneed; but as
this is a generall y cduceiled fact, I shell say nothing
farther - in regard tor, but pass to the Consideration
of roman of the obj cens' that have been urged
against the 'rutty e the classics. These ere,
. Ist: "That the Ancient languages are too far
removed from our i )modr.rn (emits of thought, too
strangd to intires or edify us."
Now, this serf strangeness, is whet most invites
the investigating and industrious Student to its
acquaintance,and while he by sympathy, is worked
into the sentiments and manner of expression of
the ancient world. he is made to live, as it were, in
two worlds. lioneequently, his mind Is expanded,
his views enlarged, and he is enabled to grasp a
larger and clearer view of, matters and'things than
modern languages could ever have ,imparted to
him. The great contrast between the ancient and
modern babies of thought. fixes and 'a , trocts the
attention of the Student—'t makes him compote,.
'.and in the habit of ex tended comparison and
faithful deduction the art of philosophizing con
sists." - .
Secondly. It is ABS argued, oThat it is a mare
difficult task to acquire • knowledge of the An.
cient than of the Madera languages," but this
mv p r , ( f :aictsfly is an advantage. The great evil of
the courses of instruction easy, as thougEtho
mind, the less ii is taxed and exercised, mould
be improved in proportion. This is certainly_a
very great error. ‘Vhy is it that when we read 1
a noes!, the events flit from our memory as things
which had never existed there 1 Merely because
the perusal of it required no effort of mind, and
consequently made but a alight impression ; and
it is exactly from the opposite state of facts that
we have indelibly. impressed upon our minds the
classics when theiy areproperfy studied, and ctn.:
der this title I do not include all the various easy
methods that are introduced at the present day,
(far they are utterly and entirely - useleindbut I
speak of the old plodding method wnteh is yet
retained in sonait of our schools, and among
the rest lam happy to say in this. NVfille the
Scholar is industriously striving to construct"piece
meal a single paragraph from Plutarch, or Socrates
or Demosthenes, he expends as much intellectual
strength upon a single eleMentary trait, 't i es' may
on a whale work in his mother totigu, and by
this- bath the matter and manner MA, things
00
read, are meet dandy received and c rehend.
deg. But the classics are beneff ' not only
.owing to contratt,for there is in the ancient writ
' loge a simplicity Of thought and expressione / that
is more readily appreciable to the young ettaSthan
the mare complex methods of modern tinesi
lion. Ancient History, for example,is I conceive
a mere appropriate study to commence thia inves
tigation of history with, then our Modern, be
cause it is infinitely moth steeple. It ie the history
of single individuals or.nationr, and the relations,
which existed between them, which are 101 very
simple and easily comprehended. WherfassMoilt
em History, ... the ether hand is filled / with 'win- I
plicated reletion _ diplomatist intrigues, State plots
\
and counter plots which envelope the youth
student in a cloud (doubt and uncertainty, with.
out one star to gu I 0 him out. Another ergu..
men,. far the adoptie 1 of the study of the cle.sics
is that in addition t (male; want of complexity,
we find in them the most liesuttful, chaste cud
truthful specimens of siting.
..
I proposs, Gentlym n, in conclusion, to make
some few remarks in t B ard to Ilistorr• and the
manner of teaching it. And it is wits no little
tripidstion, that I approa h this subject, as History
is the great Monument of antiquity, upon which
are inscribed the deeds f our ancestdrs. And to
attribute any imperfect n to it, would mat almost
like sacrilege. But, I at proud to say, the. present
age has had the good sense to my away That un
meaning' reverence ,for antiquity, and' is hold
enough to look into, and criticize her deeds: '
In the first place, in regard lathe maziar at
rea:hitig hiatary,t deem this to be sadly defective;
it roust beso, or we should have more individuals
thoroughly acquainted With historic learning, at
the present time. It is so, end the eiplanation
of, and remedy for this defect,' are Alike Pimple and
easy. At the present time, the Boy who has the
best memory, is sure to have tbe. VFW knowledge
of History. In the study of History, as it is now
taught, the Only organ of the brain shpt is exer
cised and larproted, is Abet . of eventuality, Th o
Student has his bead filled lint Popes, anperors
and Kings; learningjin connectidu •Trila them,

sheet deer ; or were shot the's:owlet)... &c: They
allogearn something idregard to Cam Pay Courts
and Dungeoni, to the etclusion of all that is vital
end important—alt that produced them and the
effects that resulted therefrom. Now, the only
means whereby the Student can be made to cow : ,_
prebend clearly alltheso tbings i Is, for 'him to be
made to think and reason for himself—to dtaw con
clusions from facts stated. And this can homily
done, and only so, by the_Teacher himself carrying.
out this plan, and iaipressing upon the mind of
the Student that when he Studies History, he must'
not only learn the facts • end the ptiiloopby Of
those facts.; - •
For example, the ordinary student of History,
sees that Egypt, that Greece and Rome were at
one time alike powerful end Eroaperocta, and that
they became impotent and Weak, ao hr he goes
and no farther. Whereas be who fated/ for a
moment on'tbese and ether instanceireade in their
