Os all the baneful habits which give an improper bias to the minds of children, that of per mitting or encouraging them to revenge upon brute any Vexation they may have receiv Cii from thtir ailbeiates, is by no means the lead important. I have seen parents and nurses, when a child has been crying for hr knew not what, give him fome animal and tell him, * beat ltj my dear, for affronring you.’ Trifling as this circumstance at firft fight may appear, it is, neverthclefs, drferving 6t the molt ficrious attention of those who are entrtifted with the can of children. It imprelfcs upon the mind of the child a belief, that all his uneasinesses, vexa tions and mortifications arile from external causes, or from other persons, and do Dot de pend upon himlclf. It makes him impatient 6f dil'appoint ment and sullen under reproof. It flatters his vanity but dellroys his judgment. It gives him a lclf-importancc in his own eyes, which, as he giows up, renders him ridiculous in the eyes of all £ round him. That the aflv&ions of chil dren may not be eilranged from their parents, they finuici hr kept as much under their evens circumfiances will permit An rhr ; r fpoits and aiTiul'ements Ihould be such as give heal h and vigor to their bodies,, and convey in a pleasing manner, information to their minds- All their recreations Ihould, if pof fiblc, be in the pretence of their elders; this would ftrve as a check upon their conduct and co iverfation, and be an incen tive to emulation. If among their aflbeiates there fiiould be any for whom a partiality is felt, their language and opin ions, their principles and actions are adopted, be they good uj bad. Eor this rcafon, every a veme to the heart should be guarded with v gtlance, and no person ihould be allowed to ap proach them but thole whose ex ample will inlpire virtuous lcn timents, and excite emotions ot benevolence. Ail their campanions and friends should be thole from whom fiomething may be gain ed, but by whom nothing can dc 101 l ; who would convey ule ul information to their minds through various channels, until they meet in manhood, like die united Area ns of many wa ters, and enable them to burst upon the world in beauty and tplendour; ornaments to lociety, ar.d blessings to their parents and their country. For the purpose of producing laudable ambition in the mind o. a child, I am of opinion that it ts best for fcvcral to be educated together, whether it be in private or in a public seminary. For, among the number it is very probable that fome will become an example to the rest, in virtue and good conduit as well as in learning. It is here that habits and manners arc formed, which, oftentimes, continue through the rest of their lives; and to give a pioptr form to these habits is the great art and myltery of ed ucation. 1 he desire of being tho’r fu per.or to their contemporaries, animates the bolom of all ages, ranks and conditions of men ; from the child who with his horn-book, trudges bare-foot to fchool, to him who rules and governs a nation- “If any one Ihould doubt the exjftance of this propensity, let him go and attentively obierve the journey men and apprentices in the fi ft work-shop, or the oarllnan in a cock-boat—a family or a neigh boihood—the inhabitants of a houle, or the crew of a ship a fchool or a Cottage —a city or a village—a lavage or a civiliz er* people—an holpital or a church—the bar or the ex change—a camp or a court. Whenever men, women or chil dren, are to be found whether they be old or young—rich or poor—high or low—wife or tool ifh—ignorant or learned—every individual is seen to be strongly affuated by a Celire to be seen neard, talked of, approved and ref petted by the people about hi it, and within his knowledge.” “The love of jiraife.j howe'er conceal’d by art, Reigns more or less, and glouri in every heart ; The proud to gain it, toil* on toili endure The modell Ihun it, but to make it lure.” MONITOR. FEMALE TEMPI-R.—As, Extras. “It is particularly neccflary for girls to acquire command of temper, bceaufe much o’ the ef fect of their powers of rcafioning, and of their wit, when they grow up, will depend upon the gentle ness and good humour with which they condutt chemfelves. A woman who should attempt to thunder with her longue, would ndt find her eloquence increase her aomeftic bappinefs. —We do not wilh that women ihouid in> plicitly yield their better judg ment to their fathers or husbands, out let them support the caule cVf rr don with all the graces of ‘feu:ule gentlene/i. “ A man, in a pillion, is ter rible to his enemies; .luitacpo mpn iu a piijfun, is to her friends ; lhe foies djl the re ipett due to her lex, and lhe has iNit raafculine llrcngth and cour age to enforce any other kind of rrfipett. These circuaiftances Ihould be confidtrcd by those who advise that no difference Ihould be made in the education of the two iexes. ** The happiness and influence of wo lien, both as wives and mothers, and indeed in every re lation, loinuc.i depend on their good temper, that it Ought to oe mod caret til lv cultivated.
