It is necessary not Only to make a Choice from among those Voca tier is but also to qualify himself As Well As circumstances May permit by Bia education to discharge efficiently Tho duties of his future calling. Horicon Tho expediency of arranging his studies we Jie attending that big special attention directed to. Those branches Tho practical use of which would to most required in the Trade or profession which it is intended for him to follow. I do not include in my re Young men having the taste and intention of going through what is. Commonly termed a classical course. Of them it should be expected is a matter of course although there Are some grave exceptions to study mathematics and Tho other branches that coins under the head of my so much perhaps with a View to practical application As to expand the mind and elevate its tone of ing. My object is to treat of the Cauca Tion of Young men who May not Havo the taste or the Means of pursuing this a poor family residing in London just fallen heir by the death of a relative in England amounting to about the head of the family heretofore made a living principally by Tho Aid of a Buksaw while his Little rag god.

People of this description Are by far Tho most numerous and important in every Community. They comprise Tho Bone and sinew of the merchant the Artisan i the Mechanic Farmer Whoso manual labor and skill Juo indispensable to Tho material pros every civilized society. To of these departments a Peculiar Tuuli fixation of education is applicable. For instance it Tho Pupil to intended for mercantile pursuits to should to Well instructed in Book keeping and such other knowledge As is embraced in a mercantile for a Mechanic mathematics should claim his special attention and the Farmer should not and be unacquainted with chemistry botany. A due Observance of the education of youth in this Way would greatly tend to raise Tho Standard of the working classes and enhance their efficiency and skill in Tho discharge several duties. This idea however too Seldom suggests itself. Parents in the majority of cases understand Little or nothing about branches of education As i have above Thoy cannot therefore generally speak ing to supposed to be competent judges of the merits of these branches or of the appropriateness of selections from them to the Circum stances of choir children. The children at school thro ugh a programme which custom makes common to nil irrespective of practical consideration.
