In another column will be foubd the announcement of the .Mount Car qiel Cypvent here for the coming ses sion. We deem it an opportune time, in the close of vacation, to talk over with parents the matter of selecting a school for their daughters, and to counsel theci to enter them at the j Convent. The ,eleeetion of a school for a child, and especially for a girl, is an act of mumentous import, as ulpxn the (buirn may depen I in a great measure the c:iikd s future welfare and ha!piness; for it is ire -cisool that the chill receives the largest share of traintig, moral as well as mental. In all schools the chld receives mental training of greater or less va lue; in Christian schoois moral train ing goes hand in hand with mental and physical training; in other schools what passes for moral training, but a training of the vagnest and most dubious sort, is imparted; while in still other schools, care is bestowed upon the mind and body of the child, mental training aid physical deve lorment engross his whole time to - the utter neglect of all moral traits lug. By moral training we mean that which teaches man whence he co.oes and whither he goes; what he is hnll his final destiny; his duties to his Creator, to ida neighbor and to him self; to distingtrish riglit from wrong, and to dare to do right, to do his du ty, "*though the heavens fall;" in r word, that training which tends to develop all the heautifeil attrihuts s C of the soul, which mikes it !ovable in the possession of a high and per. ideal to life, in nohility of iurpos5, in strict mtdher.'nee to truth and justice, and in the practice of all the virtue-. Such a training should our daugh ters get; and such training out co'. vent sbho.>s are hetter prepared to give them than any other school. Other schools may impart learning iT ' and teach art, but as the poet ýoung exclaimed long ago, I "How empty learning, how vain a r art. But as it mends the life or guides , the heart." SL.ear.ming, mental culture, is not to to despised; it is useful; it is neces e sary; but to form a true woman, th:,t almost heavenly creature which man I idolizes, a higher, a nobler learning d is indispensable,--that learning which ii as the poet sings, "mends the life anti x guides the heart,' which makes her a s true, modest, humble Christian win. L, wan, the most perfect of God's erea tures. d This learning, along with minita *e and physical culture, the good Seatepr u of Mount Carmel strive earnestly to u impart to all pupils intrusted to their ,f carn, and we counsel and advise all b5 parents to conteA- to them their Id sweetest treasures, the4r little daisgh ters, )n the opening of the comwiig session. Some may have to make some sacritice ta do it, but are nut the sweet objects of their love woe th it? There is but one time to do it; s and it is sow when the little girls are of school age; and gr.'at is the respon sibility of those whit neglect to dia id charge the duties which nature and the parental relation impose on them.
