To show that heart without deceiving ;

Thc idol of Miss Evans is Woman.—
Heart and soul are given to her cause
with a devotion almost painful. To place
her intellectually above thc mean position
which an ungenerous world has given is
the one aim of„ her literary existence.—

first and second days of the same great

wife of Roland, and the friend of his ac

and her long rich hair flowed in curls
over her shoulders. Her face, while it
had lost all its freshness from long con

Henry the Eighth was married to Anne.
Boleyn on the 25th of January, 1533, in
a garret, at the western end of the palace
at Whitehall. She”7s des’eribed as a fair

with that ready tact and quick perception
which distinguishes the whole Tankce
nation, he stuck his stakes at the romantic
settlement of-Turkey-Hill. This he did
in defiance of thc past experience of
other teachers, who had never succeeded
beyond one quarter. But Elihu was a
far-seeing man, and it required but one
glance of his eye to-discover where had
been t'ue previous difficulty.
The residents of that township were a
peculiar people. Many of them were
men of property and education. Not un
like our Pilgrim Fathers, they had left
their more comfortable and enlightened
homes ill the middle States from conscP
entious scruples. They had manumitted
their slaves,.and sought the far west in
comparative poverty, to enjoy humbler
but moTe*chccrful homes, out-of eight of
the ‘degrading influences of slavery.’

The school-honse was located in the
centre o! a township, and the neighbor
hood in thc circfe of three miles furnish
ed a sufficient number of scholars to
make quite a respectable schorl. Like
most country school-houses in the west,
this was called , the ‘ meetinghouse’ on
Sunda)*s; and I often amused myself by-
contrasting the scenes enacted therein by
the solemn fathers and their progressive
sons. Nothing could have been more de-
son that I was so very happy. My ob
servation incliucs me to the belief that all
cheerful boys are mote fond of what' in
school-boy ’parlance is called innocent
amusement than gloomy, dispirited ones.
It was my opinion, when a boy, that
school days should bc protcc f cd by law
from all disagreeable associations; that
to make a school-boy miserable should be
a capital offence; and I am pleased to
find, now that I have hoys of my own, I
can conscientiously say, I have not chan
ged my opinion. If we wish to bring up
our children an honor and a solace to our
declining years, wc must make their child
hood happy.
This like most country-schools, was at
tended by both sexes; and while the
boys were having their sports, the girls
appeared equally delighted. They often
joined in the games of the boys, besidiT
playing many-of the same kind among
themselves, and many a young lassie
would have put our swiftest laddies to the
slop of their mettle to bad them trr a f<roL
race :
“ Happy ilays'of cldfdfioctd,
Where peaceful school-days flew/’
and young ladies were allowed .to breathe
tjie fresh air, and their merry voices
echoed unchecked through the sylvan
grtfves. They liad swings and play
houses; they had dinner parties, and.
singing and dancing in the open air; and
their ruddy and cheerful countenances
gave thc best evidence of their health
and happiness.
I have had frequent opportunities of
observing the growth and development of
children taught in schools where both
sexes were admitted, and I am not able to
'recall a solitary instance where evils re
sulted therefrom. And I am happy to
find my opiimin'corroborated in a late ar
ticle on cducat’ortf’Trom the pen of an
able an distinguished lady, who says:
'* Thc nnion of the sexes in thc schools
stimulates to exertion, and imposes whole
some moral restraints; and were it but
continued, instead of rudely broken in
upon, it would prevent many unhappy
marriages; for it would tend to moder
ate that inconsiderate passion which is
often awakened by distance aud imposed
restraints.’
But, as a faithful chronicler of events,
I must acknowledge that the harmony of
this beautiful school was sometimes dis
turbed by little rows and riotings, in
which I performed my lull share. On
one occasion; I was the cause of no little
merriment, as I paid the penalty for in
sulting a young lady by giving her a nick
name. This young lady was most dis
tressingly ugly, both in face and temper-
aud had a very tantalizing name to make
fun out of, when associated with her per
sonal appearance. She was christened
Irene Crawford. I forget why I outrag
ed common politeness by giving her a
nick-name, but I presume I must have
