The picture of the tutor at thi. performance : The d gentleman, who would solve the most a diffileilt problem, does not know how to help himselft; le runs up and down C on the bank of the river, like the old t fo% l that watches the swiinluig of her young ducks, and should some thing happen. the liumten in science I will prove a faitire to assist those whotn he has entiunuiided to learn how to swine after it given theory. The shortest totiy to prevent this inconvenience: Learn how to swim. The youth will enijoy diving, splashing and swimmitig in the Hiver, and you3 enjoyment will induce the pupils to , follow. You will be alde to show all the advantages by which one can sustain his body on the surface of the water, how to Wove in "this most friendly elemient to the litttan race," and you a ill he at hand to save the young hopefil, should he be in danger. I must temark, that in this essay I particularly speak to yotiiv/ men who are prepttriti' iheeselvcs tnt Ihe ojhee of icacher. Should a teachei r, whose education is acco ilished, indttlge in habits against w hiich I have spoken, or not possess an ability which I recomnmended as netcessiXy, I do not wish to reproach hini by iliy frank opinion. I believe C.eiytiibody must agree that a teacher call wati k with greater influence, i lie is Tice of those habits in which he wiilil nout like his pupils to indulge, and that it is of I great atlvantag for hint to possess the alilities lie winless to teach. What must a teaciler do a lo finds himself in the awkard contraiy poJitioit Say candidly: `This habit or this want is an imperfection, for which I have to blame may own education and frotu awhich I desire to deliver \n3t. my pupils, accordiing to the best ir my knowledge."

We hear it said on all sides that the seed cane is had, Ist in some instances, entirely de stroyed. On the other hand the re e ports we hear of the stubble are good. t In fact of this po)tiunt of the crop we .. tar atno complaint whatever. Under these circumstances would it not be e well for our phlitters to put in a large a crop of corn. We thiak so, and hope the suggestion will be heeded.
