THE subscriber announces to the public,
that I ij School for the education of youth
will be opeaed for the admission of students on
Monday, 2d January, 1837, at the village of
Mount Zion, Hancock county, a place highly
celebrated for its institutien of learning.
The ancient languages Mathematics and the
Sciences, together with the primary branches
of education will be taught, and great care be
taken to give to each student a thorough, critical
and enlarged comprehension of the various sub.
jects of study pursued.
The principles which are employed by him,
who hoklsthe important station of an instructor
youth, tn the management and direction of his
change, should be freoly stated to the public,
that they may judge of their correctness in
theory, and tneir applicability tn the wants of
the .using generatien,and the structure of socie
ty at large. 1 shall, therefore, present a concise
Aiew of those acted upon by myself. Ami first,
Government. This a fundamental article,
“ Order, is Heaven’s first law. Order, per
fect order, without a jar or one decrepancy
must be maintained. To secure different
modes are used- One, the compulsory, which I
attempts to accomplish its object by “ bolts snd
bars, rods aud stripes.” This is suited to the
blind despotism of the cqmp or navy, but not
to train yenth for the social duties of an cnlight
enad, independent republicanism. Pear may
curb the licentious and refractory Spirit of the
student, while under the immediate influence, ;
but as soon as it is withdrawn he is left without ;
any balance or guide to dirent his course. An- !
other is the persuasive, wdich seeks the same '
end by addressing the possions of the student— :
his pride, ambition, aud spirit of emulation ; a
mode equally objectienqble with the former, as
it nouiishes that never sated love for distinction
which in the moral iufluencts. This points out
duiy, moral obligation, as the rule of conduct.
Its vast su|»riority over the pieceding methods
is apparent to every mind. The officers of
an educator do not stop with merely imparting
au amount of knowledge and restraining the
outbreakings of violence and passion during the j
hours allotted to study. They take hold of the j
most secret windings of individuals social and
public interest. The heart, the social and mo
ral feelings, are to be trained and educated
■ as well as the mind. Believing it to be the grand
j and fundamental principle in government to
I teach youth to govern themselves, this mode
I seeks the establishment of character Its law is,
i do right; its argument, is it right ? its tribunal
the student’s own conscience.
Such being our government, little need be
said as to the mode of teaching. It will be to
lead by the attractions of knowledge to make
study pleasant and interesting, and to give clear
ideos so that the student, charmed by the light
he enjoys, may press on to greater attainments
improvement and scienco.
Terms of Tuition.— Per term, primary class,

Books and stationary, if wanted, can be pro
cured at the Institution. Board can be had in

(•From the flattering we have c

liv the government of young laeies, are very f
highly extolled. We have been led to this I t
step, from the inconvenience which young ladies I
experience in going to and ccuning from their i <
boarding houses during inclement weather; from i j
the time they lose, owing to the domestic ar- [ j
rangements of other houses, not corresponding ’
with our own; for the sake of having all the '
yo tng ladies, at all times, under the supervision
of the teachers, as many of them are disposed 1
to neglect their studies, and become careless of 1
their manners and language when not subjected i
to such a check; and, finally, the teachers can
not feel themselves as responsible for those who [
board elsewhere, as for those who board with !

Bridget's account of her intcrvieic u ilh'
the Deuiist.— “ Well, Bridget,” says Mar
gery, “ How did you get along with the
Doethur—what did ye say til Item, and j
what did he do til ye
Bridget.—lt’s no hing he did til me, nor ;
J to hem, that’s all—only saysl—“Oeli|
Docthtir, Doethur dear, its me tooth that i
aches intirely, sure it is ; and I’ve a min to
have it drahit out, and it plaze ve.” “Do
it pane ye, ’ says be til me. “ Och mnrlli
, er, can ye ax me that now, and me all the I
way down here to see ye about it,” says 1 |
—“ Sure have 1 slept day or night, these
three days? Haven’t I tried all manes 10l
quiet tliejumping devil ? Didn’t they till J
me to put raw brandy in my mouth, but j
w ould it stay there, jist till me now ? No, >
thedevil a bit could 1 keep it up in me incuth, :
‘ though its far from the likes of me to be '
drinking the brandy without extrame pro- ;
! vocation, or ly accident-” So then the
| Doethur took his iron instruments in a hur
ry, with as little concarnntint of mind as;
[ Barney would swape the knives and forks '
from the table. “Be aizy, Doethur,” savs
I-—“ there’s time enough—you’ll no be in
such a hurry when your turn conies, I’m
thinkin.” ‘O, well,’ said the Docthm,
“ and yer no ready now,’ ye may come the
morrow.”—“ Intlade. Doethur, I’ll no
I stir from this sate wid this mild tooth alive
in me jaw,” says I; so ye may jist prepare,
; but ye nade not come slashing at a poore
! Christian body, as if ye would wring her
; mck off first and draw her tooth at ver con I
; vaitii nce afterward.—Now on yer pin- ■
I citers, but mind ye get lioult of the right I
; one.” and with liiat he jabs a small razor
| looking weapon intil me mouth, and cutsup ;
; me goonts, as if it were nought but cow Id j
I mute for liis breakfast,” Say s J— “ Doc-I
[ ilnir, thunder ami blood—for mv mouth i
! was full of blood—-what in the devil are ye
’ afthure ? D’ye want to make an anatomy '
lof a living crailiur, ye grave robber ye.”
i Sit still,” says he jamming something like a
I corkscrew intil me jowl, and twisting the
very sow I out of me. 1 sat still because
the inurthering lliafe held me down with
his knee, and the gripe of his iron in my
lug.
He then gave me one awful wring, hard
enough to wring a wel blanket as dry as gun
powder. Did’nt I think the day of judg
ment was come, tell me? Didn’t 1 see tin
red fire o’ the pit ? I felt me head fly off ini’
[shoulders, and looking tip saw something
morßtromt bloody in the Doctlmr’s wrench-
ing iron.—“ Is that me head ye’ve got
there,” saysl—No its only yer tooth,” be
m d ■ answet.—‘-May be it is,” said las my
yes began to open, and by putting my
bund up, 1 found the out side of my face
on, though 1 felt as il all the inside had been
hauled out. I had taken a dollar and a hail
to pay for the operation—thinking it would
be enough for a poor woman to pay ■< 1
thought I’d jest ax him the price.
So say s 1, “ Doethur, how much may ve
ax beside the trouble?” “Fifty cents,”
says he—“ Fifty cents!” says I—“ Sure
1 ve n t been submitting three days to that
tyrant of a tooth for fifty cents—r Troth
this same toothe-pulling is not so very ex
pensive, and I’m much obk-eged til ye Doc
ihur.”
Margery—But where’s the tooth—ye
should have brought it home and dipped it
into salt, and flung it over yer left shoulder
into the lire ; ye’ll have bad luck all the rest
of your life.
Bridget—The devil take the t >o h, an.l
the bad luck too, if ever 1 think of it any
more—sure I’ve had enough of its compa-
ny.

invited themselves, swelling the number t»
forty-two. The General; however, fell
strongly inclined to do the handsome thing,
and loot the bill, if it were not too savage,
and accordingly sent Corporal N. to recon
noitre the landlady’s calculation. Be

-PRINCIPLE AND FEELING.
Let-us suppose, th.it one evening and
Principle were walking in the road upon
the outskirts ot a country town. They,
had been to attend an evening-si.rv.ice in m
school-house, ball-a mile from .their Lohics.
It was a cold winter evening, asm, as they
passed by the dour of a small ct.biti, with
boarded windows, and broken luuf, they
saw a child sitting at the -door,
and sobbing most bitterly.
I.' eel ing looked anxio-.s ami conzerned,
“What’s the matter, my Lille fellow?”
■sad Principle, with a pleusmg mutiie
ance.
T lie boy sobbed on.
“‘VVliata house,” said Feeling., “/kr hu
man beings to live in! But Jdo no.t think
any thing serious is the maitci —let us
on.”
iVi ais the-matter,my boy,” said Prin
ciple again, kindly, “cun you not tell tn»
wmat is die mailer?”
“My father is tick,” said the'boy, “and
■I do not know what is the matter Midi him.”
■“Hark!” said Fed ng.
They listened, and lieai d the sounds of
moaning and muttering within the house.
‘ Letos go on,’ said Feeling, pulling up
i-tiii Principle’s arm, ‘and w e will send sume-
I body to see what is the matter.”
; ‘We had better go and see ourselves*
I said Principles to her companion.
Feeling shrunk back from die proposal,
i and 1 rinciple herself—with female timidity
j —paused for a moment, from an undefined
I sense of danger.
“ There can be no danger,” thought »lre
; “besides, it there is, my Saviour expos
ed himself to danger in doing good. Why
should not I?—Saviour,” she whispered,
aid and guide me.”
“Where is your mother, my boy?” said
she.
“She is in there,” said the boy, “trying
to t >ke care of him.”
4 J come, ’ said Feeling, ‘let us go.
Here, my boy, here is some money for you
to carry to your mother. Saying ibis, site
tossed some change dow n by his side.
I he boy was w iping his eyes and did not
i notice it. He looked anxiously imo Print
■ ciple’s lace, and said,
“I wish you Would go in and sec my :uoth
: er.”
