Permit me then, through this medium to drop a hint upon this important subject. It is natural to suppose that parents feel most deeply interested in this institution. The rea sons are obvious, but two numerous to be noticed in a brief essay. One however is too important to be passed over. That is, that the first impres sions which a child receives, usually become habitual, for “just as the twig is bent the trees’ inclined.” But some argue that these things may be taught them at home. Upon the same principle a man may all his life time study the map of a country in his chimney corner,but, after alfjiis knowledge will be only founded upon the assertions of others. The mind of man is so curiously framed that it needs a variety of springs to keep it in action. And the means of grace are the best adapted to produce this action, for the great law giver says “ seek first the kingdom’’ of God,and London, so that 1 get him. .Uilledgeville, Nov. 30.
