'.Unto every one that hath shall be given and he shall have abun dance."-Matthew xxv, 29. These words are selected from our Saviour's parable of the en trusted talents. It represents a certain master on the eve of taking a long journey, entrusting to his servants a certain amount of money. To one he entrusted five talents, to another two, and to another one. After he had gone the servants were free to employ them as they thought best. Two of them employed theirs in such a manner- as to double them by the time the master re turned. The other hid his for safe keeping. and by his unwise con duct gained nothing for himself or his master. Upon the master's re turn he called them severally to ac count. The one to whom he had entrusted five talents, and who, by prudent management, had doubled them, was greeted with, "Well done, good and faithful servant." The one to whom he had entrasted two talents, and who had in like man ner doubled them, was, in like man ner commended. But that one who had his lord's money, and returned it rusty and without interest, was condemned, the master saying, "Take the talent from him and give it to him that hath ten talents, for unto every one that hath shall be given and he shall have abundance, and from him that hath not shall be taken even that which he hath." By every one that hath is meant every one that improves what God has entrusted to him; and by every one that hath not is meant every one that fails to improve what God has entrusted to him. The word talent literally and primarily refers to money, but metaphorically it means any valuable possession, whether material, intellectual, Civil, social or moral. The general truth of the parable is that our talents will be multiplied, or diminished, according as we improve or fail to improve them. Educationt is a tal ent capable of abundant enlarge ment. It is capable also of serious diminution. It is possible for a student, six months after gradua tion, to have less education than at the time of receiving the diploma. It is not only possible, but it is a matter of frequent occurrence. And there are many instances, not only of diminution of education, but of the gradual decay of mental power, from the same cause. An unfaith ful custodian of another's treasure is no more certain of losing his custodianship than is an unfaithful alumnus of sinking in scholarly at-. tainment. Hence, the oft repeated admonition to graduating classes about their education not being. finished, and the necessity of pros ecuting it in the future-in all the future ! The sum of money that doubles and quadruples itself so often is the employed-the active sum of money that finds its way in to the channels of business, which possess the magic power of con ~verting even the nimble sixpence into a fortune. The knowledge and applic.ation of this law has often made honest millionaires of poor men. In like manner, the educa tion that doubles and quadruples itself is the active education, that throws itself into all the channels of thought, which possess, in like manner, the magic power of con verting the tyro in learning into the master in arts, science, litera ture and philosophy. The hill of science is so broad and so high that no mortal ever trod, or can tread, its entire surface. What seems its top is only the limit of human vi sion. and that once reached, the traveler, like the tourist in the Alps, sees "hills peep o'er hills and Alps on Alps arise," ininumerable and without end. Those who have gone farthest and mounted highest have all started from the same valley, and by labored steps,. gained at length their lofty elevation. Young ladies of the graduatingi class, you have made good progressI up this hill, and under the direction of your experienced guides, reached a point where, when they leave you with the honors they are about to bestow, you will discover other ThE HERALD 15 PUBLISHED EVERY THURSDAY MORNING, AL Newberry, 8. 0.

To the credit of the learned and venerable head of the Walhalla Fe male College, its course of study has been chosen with a view to lay ing an educational foundation so deep and so broad, that its grad uates might in the future, rear any praiseworthy ideal superstructure upon it. The old inductive idea of education, regarding the mind as a mere recept.cle of knowledge, which only required filling up in order to be educated, has long since been discarded. The natural re bound from this extreme was its opposite, which regarded education as simply a process of eduction-a drawing out of the undeveloped powers. The truth here, as else where, lies in the golden mean. The mere filling up of the mind's re ceptivity with Latin, French, His tory, Philosophy. and various other branches of study, may be accom plished by some minds with very little education. Some memories are very capacious, but what is a capacious memory without judg ment, taste, or practical sense? A mere prodigy in knowledge may be a prodigious failure in every thing else. And so may the man be whose education has been con ducted upon the drawing out theory of pure mental gymnastics. Edu cation includes a proper kind of knowledge and that mental dis cipline which is necessary to apply it wisely. These requisites cannot be attained without that thorough study which makes the student master of each branch as far as it is taken up in his course. The mind gains strength by conquering difficulties in study, and it becomes weak by retreating before them. There is such a thing as mental de moralization from defeat. If a branch of study conquer ,the stu dent, instead of the student con quering the study,- itwill not be long till that student is in full re treat before eyery study that re quires close application. Soon his whole way will be hedged up, and he will by a helpless prisoner, and the sooner he is exchanged the better. Many of the different branches of study are so related to each other t) at one slight omission may make -a impassable gulf be tween its k wer and higher parts. A chain with a missing link will not bind. The mathematics, from the multiplicatio.i table to the calcu lation of an eclipse, are all linked together, and if the student miss one important link, he Can make no certain progress in that study until be has gone back and replaced it. So it is, to a certain extent, in languages, the physical sciences, and many other branches. All of a particular department are so re lated, the higher to the lower, that the stndent can only make certain, safe and comfortable progress, by thoroughly mastering all that he undertakes. S,uch a course stores the mind - with useful knowledge, and at the same time, imparts to it the 'discipline that is necessary to its right application. sHowever greatly the circle of study may be enlarged in after life, there will then always be capacity to gather treasures of wisdom from its hid den stores, whether in tne field of literature, history, science, art, phil osophy, social, or domestic life. Thoroughness of study at college, supplemented in after life by the continuance of the habit in an ever widening field, not only multiplies incalculably the education acquired at college, but it will multiply doors of usefulness on every hand, and furnish the requisite ability to en ter these doors. and do' the work they require with a master's band. II. Cultivate a passion for study. If it is pursued from necessity and not from choice, from mere im pulse, and not from growing fond ness rooted in deep seated princi ple, it will result in no certain pro gress. John Riuskin argues that what a person does from the pleas ure he finds in it, is play. In this way work itself-even the hardest work - becomes play. Farming, merchadizing. banking, soldiering, ny and every kind of work, becomes play to some men. They takejust is much pleasure in it as real players to in their games, and that is one I reat secret of their success. A ~elebrated German author declared ~hat "if the Creator should grant I im the possession of all knowledge s a free gift he would not thank im for the boon, but if he should ~rant him the everlasting pursuit of t, he would render him everlasting hanks." All the great masters in . nusic, poetry, oratory, painting.and ~culpture, acquired a passion for he art in which they excelled, and . hus made their life play. If the abor necessary to produce the ~lliad or Paradise Lost had beent othing but unpleasant toil, the C orld would never have heard of: Iomer or Milton. If the labor ne-: I ~essary to deliver the philippics of noral culture. The conscience, the ill, the affections, all need edu ;ating. There are too many at the resent day who would educate the ntellect at the expense of the moral iature. Intellectual education, in heir view, when universally ap )lied, will introduce the millennium. Che story of the bustling little man, n conversation with a wise old nan, illustrates the absurdity of his theory. The bustling little nan could see nothing but excel ence in knowledge, but the wise >ld man led him to see that knowl dge was an increase of power, rnd then by a number of pertinent llustrations, convinced him that >ower might be a bad, as well as a rood thing, and needed directing, as yell as a horse or ship in order to ;erve a good purpose. "God's ,race in the heart," said the wise >ld man, "will render the knowledge )f the head a blessing, but without his, it may prove a curse instead of t blessing," "I see, I see, I see, learly," said the bustling little nan ! The history of the world hows the correctness of the old nan's philosophy. It was not ig iorance that made Egypt, Babylon, xreece and Rome fall into decay. [hese countries abounded in learn ;d men at the time of their greatest legeneracy.. It was vice running lot in the midst of the movements f their genius, while their orators rere charming listening senates rith their eloquence, their philoso ihers were delighting their schools vith their wisdorh, and their poets vere immortalizing in song the leeds of their heroes. There must be an education of he moral nature to keep the race rom drifting into ruin. The con cience, rightly educated, directs n the path of duty, and wars against he opposite path. The will, rightly ducated, chooses the path of duty, ,nd refuses the opposite path. The teart, rightly educated, loves the >ath of duty, and hates the oppo ite path. Moral education includes, besides he development of the conven ional proprieties of life, that inner ransformation of character which omes from the word and Spirit of lod. ldine truth must become a art of the daily food of the soul. t is the medium through which race is communicated, and thus, he subject of it is transformed af er the image of the great Creator. lenuine Christian morality is from rithin. It is not like paint, put on he outside to please the eye, but it s like health, working from within, ,nd making outward beauty, be ause there is inward beauty to >roduce it. Therefore, while quench ng your thirst for knowledge at he Pyerian Spring, drink daily, rink deeply from "Siloah's brook that flows Hard by tha oracle of God." lhat will not only assimilate, by he transforming power of grace, 'our moral nature to the moral ature of God, it will alg~o sanctify rour intellectual culture, airect you n its application, and qualify you ~s no other accomplishment can, or the trials and duties of life, in rhatever sphere you may hereafter ove. V. While attending to your intel ectual and moral culture, do not 'verlook the 'importance of physical ducation. The mind can be, and often is, ducated at the expense of - the >ody. But the body, so fearfully ~nd wonderfully made, the temple f the soul, needs educating too. f it is so enfeebled by the educa ion of the intellect, as to render a erson an invalid for' life, it is tuestionable whether the time and eans spent on such a one sided iducation might not have been pent to a better purpose. The omologist looks with suspicion up. in the bright blossoms of a young ruit tree. He regards them as the >recursors of disease and decay. Ie will therefore destroy most of hose blossoms to save the tree. 'he young tree that is allowed to ear a burden of fruit each year is xhausting its vital force in thei roduction of this fruit, and will in< onsequence, be a weakly tree,i estined to an early death. It is i ke the precocious youth. The rid, in this case, should receive ss educational attention for a few ears than the body. The same I ractical sense shown in the edu ation of a fruit tree, should I e shown in the physical edu-t ation of a human being. By t roper care of the body, during the ritical period of life, such physicalt igor may be secured as will prove reasonably certain guarantee of i iture health to a good old age. How ] u. is the necrology of early genius ! t ames Gregory, the inventor of the t flecting telescope, after a brief t udy of the stars, took his flight to i e starry worlds in the thirty- i ~venth year of his age ! Mozart, f e greatest musical genius of mod- a :n times, after making the earth c :cal with melody almost as sweet f Sthat of the angel voices on tlie r vent, entered the chorus of the a des at the age of thirty-five ! r aphael, whose pencil could almost s Id a tintto the rose or hue to the i: iinbow, took his flight to Him who z Demosthenes and Cicero had been nothing but unpleasant toil, the world would never have heard of < either of the silver tongued orators of antiquity. If the labor necessary i to produce statuary that almost i spoke, and paintings that almost I breathed, had been nothing but un pleasant toil, the world would never have heard of Praxiteles and Mich- i ael Angelo, Apelles, Raphael and Rubens. If the labor necessary to 1 discover the nature and laws of matter and mind had been nothing l but unpleasant toil, the world would < never have heard of Plato and Aris toltle, Bacon, Locke, Newton, Leibnitz and Kant. Every master, i in every department of study, be- l came such by making that in which he obtained the mastery, a play. When Archimedes discovered a great law in nature, he was so filled ith pleasurable emotions that he < ran out into the street crying out, "I have found it, I have found it." 1 When Newton was prosecuting his astronomical studies he was so overwhelmed with pleasurable sen sations at times as to be under the necessity of temporary rest to avoid i nervous prostration. It is not only a matter of experience, that the ( pursuit of wisdom is attended with pleasure, it is also a matter of rev elation. "Her ways are ways of c pleasantness." People talk about peculiar aptitude, of genius, as < though that would account for the difference between ordinary and i masterly minds. What is genius but that persevering industry that makes work play? Remember this. Ever act upon it and you will i ever be in possession of the secret of success-the true philosopher's t stone that turns all that it touches f into that which is "more to be de- s sired than gold-yea, than fine i gold." t III. Have confidence in your ca pacity. The opinion was once common that woman was intellectually in ferior to man. This opinion, like the false philosophy in which it originated, is fast disappearing from the world. The history of the race, notwithstanding man has generally bad a monopoly of its best educa tional advantages, shows beyond a doubt that there is no difference in mental capacity, on account of sex. [n the sphere of government Semiramis, Catherine of Russia, and Elizabeth, of England, figured just t as conspicuously as Nebuchad nezzar, Peter the Great, or Alfred Lhe Great. In the sphere of state craft, Madame DeStael figures just ' as conspicuously as any one of the strong minded men during the c French Revolution. In the sphere i of authorship Margaret Fuller, Elizabeth Barret Browning, George Eliot, Mrs. Hemans, and Mrs. Sig Durney, suffer no obscurity from being compared with Goldsmith, Addison, Walter Scott or Charles Dickens. Among the living literatli ~ of America, the female group stands 3 just as high, and seems just as much at home, on Parnassus as the - male group. In the sphere of ms thetic art, which, until recently, was a sort of Terra Izcognita to woman, she is disputing the palm with the sterner sex, and her natural love for the beautiful and easily ac quired skill in adornment give her peculiar advantages for obtaining eminence in this line of culture. She sees the picture on the un painted canvass, and the statue in the block of marble just as readily1 as man, and can just as readily paint the ideal form on canvass,, or with the mallet and chisel, develop. the statue from the block of marble. In the sphere of religion she has ever shown a devotion superior to man. She has larger sympathies, stronger affections, and a religion whose essence is love and whose founda bion is faith, and whose manifesta tion is beneficence, addresses itself especially to her heart. Last at the cross, first at the selpulcher, earliest to proclaim the resurrec ~ion, she exhibited, in those typical acts, that self-sacrificing sympathy ~ for religion, which, in universal ex arcise, will restore Paradise to man. Woman's sphere always has been,e m.d always will be less public than Dan's. Man has, until recently, ~ 1ad a monopoly of the professions. l Ele is seen more and heard more in >ublic, and that is because God has1 nade him physically stronger than voman. He has stronger bones, nuscles, lungs and voice, and thesec it him for the bar, the bench, the b ostrum, the pulpit, the arena of c >olitics, and the head of the army. 3ut strong bones are not the neces ary concomitants of intellectualC ower, else physical giants ought a ~lways to be intellectual giants. et no person think because she is woman, that she has no capacity or the most thorough intellectualr ulture. She has the capacity, andS hat capacity is one of the talents t ommitted to her keeping, that it oay be so improved as to be re- t urned in the end abundantly en- e, arged' vi IV. While a.ttending to the educa- a ion of the intellect, do0 not neglect that a f the heart-. s We are moral as well as intel- R ectual beings. Hence, in order to al omplete ednatinthere must be rw paints the rose and sets the bow in the cloud, in the thirty-eighth year of his age ! Robert Polok, whose lofty muse sang in su^.h sol emn strain, "The course of time," finished his course on earth at the age of twenty-nine ! Henry Kirke White, who wrote creditable poetry when a boy, and immortalized him self at twenty, paid the penalty of overtaxed endurance at the age of twenty-one ! Robert Murray Mc Cheyne, one of Scotland's most brilliant divines, exchanged the militant for the triumphant church at the age of thirty ! Fancis Beau ment, the second Shakespeare of the English drama, passed from the stage and play of life at thirty, Lord Byron at the age of thirty-six, and Robert Burns at thirty-seven. It would be presumption to pro nounce all these illustrious charac ters the victims of neglected physi cal education; but it would be untrue to affirm of most of them that they took proper care of their bodies. And it is true now, that, in the culture of the mind, the body is too much overlooked. The aim and ambition is brilliant scholarship, forgetting that brilliant scholarship, like a certain kind of light, may shine most brightly when the ves sel that holds it is just ready to break in pieces. God never meant that we should educate the mind at the expense of the. body, or the body at the expense of the mind, :r the moral nature upon the ruins :f both. It is better to make slow progress in mental culture, and naintain bodily vigor, than rapid progress to end in premature leath. The plodding student will accomplish more in a long life than the brilliant one in a short life. The body, no less than the mind, is sod's workmanship. Take care of t, guarding especially the more vital organs. You have but one pair of lungs. Keep disease out of hem, and strengthen them by Dreathing freely of God's pure air, and they will be likely to serve you o a good old age. You have but one ieart. Keep it beating with steady troke, and sending in lively glow ;he life currents in their rounds, and that heart will be likely to beatnin dealth long after the eye has become lim, and the frost that never melts, das silvered over the locks. Peo ple cannot replace worn out vital )rgans as they can amputated Limbs, by artificial ones. A vital :rgan dead the - whole body dies with it. Like the injured Samson in Dagon's temple, it pulls down and lays the whole fabric in ruins. Since so much depends upon the body, fortify it against disease, by exercise, temperance in eating and drinking, and a most scrupulous ob servance of all the laws of health. It will save you from untold suffer ing, add cheer to the whole round of life, and contribute immeasurably to your usefulness and success. Young ladies, your possibilities and prospects are most cheering. Your sphere of labor may yet be un determined in your minds, but it is safe to predict that it will not be on the rostram, at the bar, in the pulpit or in the halls of legislation. It will be in less conspicuous places, but not in less important ones. In the natural world, the most efficient workers are the quiet workers. The sun works quietly. The coral in sect works quietly. Yet these qluiet workers effect wonders. The sun melts down mountains of ice, ifts the vapor from the sea, forms the rain cloud and the wind cloud, and makes the rains descend and the floods come, and the winds blow and beat in the tornado and cyclone. rhe coral insect lifts up great is !ands in the sea, and the evidence of its earth building power is seen an the tops of the tallest monutains. rhe noisy worker is not the most powerful, nor the most useful worker. Niagara plunges and roars and makes the earth tremble, and the civilized world gaze in wonder, but it does little good in compari eon with the hundred quiet rivulets ~hat run down the mountain side, Lud are so narrow that children nay step over them; and so still ;hat no one hears them, and go m laughing into other streams, en iching the vallies and carpeting he earth with living green, inter spersed with flowers of every hue nd making the corn and the wheat rave in the luxury of abundance or hundreds of miles. So is it rith woman in her sphere. Though ess public it is no less important han man's, and requires no less alent to fill it well. And as re near the sun-rise of a bet er day coming, this sphere is 'nlarging. .There is an increas ng demand for female teachers. n many places they occupy bree-fourths of the positions in he public schools, and there is a line coming when they will.comn aand equally with men the chairs a academies and colleges. The eld of literature is a broad one, nd they are just as capable of oc upying it successfully as men. The eld of asthetic art is now open as ever before to the female amateur, nd she is entering there with such ianifest capacity that no man can afely predict that the coming Ra >hael or Angelo will not be a wo ian.
