ADVANTAGE OF NEWSPAPERS. Aii old newsmonger friend of mine. While dying with a cough, Desired to hear the latest news, Whileiie was going off. tJPl 1 took the paper and I reau Of some new pills in force. He b night a box?and is he d;ad? No?hearty as a hor je! A Long Line.?The following is from a languishing swain to his gentle divinity : Oh! lady hear thy lover sigh. No truer heart there is than mine; I read compliance in your eye, Then why not say at once, I've kept you waiting a long lime, and if you'll have A? aMi r u? I t _ pauence 11111 can get a \\ eauing aress maue, I'll be ihine. A Thought, for Every Day.?We see nol in life tho end of human actions. The influence never dies. In every winding circle ii reaches beyond the grave. Death removes us from this to an eternal world? time determines what shall be our condition in that world. Every morning when we go forth we lay the mouldering hand on our destiny, and every evening when wc have done, we have left a deathless impres eion on our charactcr. We touch not a wire but vibrates to eternity;?not a voice but reports at the throne of God. Let youth, especially think of these things : and let every one remember that in this world, where character is in its formation slate, it is a serious things to think, to speak, to act. Education.?The multitude think that to educate a child is to crowd into his mind agiven amount of knowledge ; to load the memory with words. No wonder lhat they think everybody fit to teach. The true end of education is to unfold and dircct a right our whole nature. Its office is to call forth powers of thought, affection, will, and outward actions, powers to observe, to rea oun, iu juuge, 10 coniriTe?power 10 auopi good counsels, and lo pursue thetri, to govern ourselves and influence others, to gain and # spread happiness. The intellect was crented not to receive passively a few words, dates and /acts, but to be active for the acquisition of truth. Education should inspire a profound love of truth, and teach the process t)f investigation. A sound logic, by which we tnean the science and art which instructs, us in the true laws of reasoning and evidence, is an essential part of a good education.?Ckamiing Respect does not follow Extravagances?The man who lakes carc of his earnings is far more respected than he who squanders all in "riotous living." So with . the young lady. Although she may spend her last dollar in the purchase of a new <lress or a costly shawl, and follow the whims of fashions as closely as does the fashionable belle who has thousands at her disposal, she cannot make/people believe that she is richer than she really is; and is more likely lo incur suspicion as to her rectitude oi cnaracter, and to keep away such young men as make good husband?, from her society, than if she lived prudently and dressed plainly. A deBtist in New York has been arrested for throwing vitriol over the dresses of females in the street. No les3 than twelve Individuals appeared against him, who had been sufferers from its detestable malice, and one girl now lies dangerously ill from the effects of it. v:. '. A Bill has passed the Senate of Tennessee, establishing the Free Bank system, butdifferingin some good respects from the lawof Ne\v(York and Ohio. As security - to tbe-State, one quarter of the capital of the Bank must be paid in specie, and the remaining part of Tennessee or United States f Bioda. . 1 ^ ^ Tibjb fob Killing Animals.? ? it has lately b6en discovered that the flesh of titiimals which are killed in the middle of the night will keen much longer than it willjwhep ihey are killed in {he day-time ; and H is for this reason preferred by those whop'repere poitedtneats.

Seven hours will bo daily employed in exercises purely scholastic. Four hours recreation. I respectfully solicit occasionally the professional services of clergymen of the christian denominations. From these gentlemen, lectures to my family and pupils not sectarians will be acceptable. I was raised under the dccipline of the Baptist.
