ADDRESS OX TIIR floral Influence of Education. BY REV. ARCHIBALD CRAIG. Moral influence is a power that lends its sub ject to tne correel discharge of every duly, and has lor :ts oojects uod and men, superiors, inferiors and equals. It also includes in its compass the whole world of inferior animal?. The education that promotes this must be of amoral nature. The new bom infant shows bat little physical power, and its intellectual i anl moral faculties are yet quite latent. The ! h-ttlthy child is naturally disposed to everci-e anJbvperseverenceina cottr.e of regnfing .ttlie Physical powers gradual auire ! s;rea-ui d..u at wsi ne arrives at timorous .,oa. ny means oi physical education.

We ou"ht . t r : . i - . . . n t to forget that there is no existence of a ! necessary connection between the intellectual aid vioral powers, more than between lhe moral and material. A lad may be led thro'h ifis routine of languages, mathematics, weopraphy and astronomy, without ever feeline the force of a moral influence more than if he liaJ been all the time working in a cabinet shop. With such an education all the natural nowersmaybe excited to their highest eneroy; and he may shine at the bai. and the legisla tive hall. He may be an "O'Connoil", or the head of a popular assembly, and under the restraint of external influences einanatm from wisr tutors than himself, his services mav produce more benefit to society than ever w as ermn.'nea in his own calculations. If we would produce a moral influence i We must tlQf mrtril mninr. T1'. r . i .

As soon as the pupils observe him 1 he unfit for self government, they become r'l-T.weJ to submit only from necessity, and are ihns but poorly prepared to receive his instrueiions. As knowledge is the basis of duty, t W should be taught in a simple and conciliati 13 manner, the ground and extent of their parent's claims; also of their brothers and sistors, neighbors, friends, enemies, their conn try and the church. This should rest upon a condensed view of the Divine character and claims. If they do not helieve in the Divine Omnipresence, purity and spirituality and of our Creator's minute interest in all 0"r concerns, and the certainty of future rewards and punishments, sofiety will get no more than a cobweb hold of t .eir active powers; and will hold no security f"r their upright conduct, except when ihev tHieve themselves to be acting- under the eyes of their fellow-men. Their sails will be spread before the breeze of interest or passion, and the most direful results will follow. The pais of history ancient and modern will be searched to no purpose, for an instance of a whole vast community holding out such an ""iting field for the continued efforts of the Philanthropist and the patriot, as is now spread h-rore us in this great western valley. In the rt'J Stales their former modes of education fan be hut slowly improved to any considerable extent. The aged and professional are eenerally reluctant to change what their habhave sanctioned, and with which their reiu'stio.t is linked. Rut we have here a vast body of people not yet fairly condensed into community, we have not received any customs with firm attachment. No Egypt or Tyre can, Carthagenia ;ke. claim us as its own. Our people are the natives of nearly every country throughout the iiaf.ons of Europe and the Atlantic States. x'h one feels his isolated state, and being but jn unimportant member of a vast commnuily. ne is to a certain extent ready to adopt the Prevailing customs and man iers.

During this time we have repeatedly told our creditors, by legislative action, that our debt should be paid. That the people are willing, whenever lhe are convinced of their abilitytodo so. the committee cannot permit themselves to doubt; and. ihat ihev now have the ability to make an arrangenifnt at once satisfactory to her creditors and honorable lo the State, we think we can demonstrate. The bonds issued for internal improvement purposes, now outstanding, and upon which no provision for interest has been made, amount, according to the AuditorV report of the present year, to the sum of $1 1.122.000. to which add the interest now due, being the sum of R2.27 500 and the whole sum now due will be S 12 3 10.500. Afterdedneting the revenue for lhe present year, there will i-main outstanding treasury notes to about 101.552. which are receivable for taxes. The scrip issued to ray the bank debt will be abandoned by the sinking fund. A reference to the census shows that the various productions of the soil amounted, in 1S10. to about eleven million nf dollars, and the capital invested in commercial and manufacturing pursuits was about ten nillion of dollars.and the capital invested in commercial and manufacturing pursuits was about ten millions. These several amounts have g'catlv increaced within the past four years, and will continue to increase as lands are brought under cultivation, and new objects attract the attention of capitalists. Our taxable property, the present year, amounts to 1 15 500.OT.7. and the numberof polls toll7.53fl. An examination of the statistics of the State for several years past. afTords the most conclusive evidence of increasing wealth, as well as ,,f population. It cannot be otherwise than that a people poe. sessing the productive soil which renders Indi ana so favorably known, should thus rapidly continue to increase. As it is beyond lhe ability of the State to pay the interest now due. the committee propose that it. together with the principal and one year's interest in advance, be funded, making lhe to'al sum of SI 3 907.320.

Bright pems were I wined amid her hair, And glittered on her bosom; And pearls and costly btacelets deck Her round while arms and lovely neck. Like summer's sky. with stars bedight, The jewelled robe around her. And dazzling as the noontide light The radiant zone thai bound her; And pride and joy were in her eve. And mortals bowed as she passed by. Another came-o'er her mild race, A pensive shade was stealing; ft there no grief of earth we trace, Kill that deep holy feeling, X hich mourns the heart should ever strav From the pure fount of Truth away. Around her brow, as snow-drop fair, The glossy ttesses cluster, Nor pearl, nor ornament was there, Save lhe meek spitii's lustre And faith and hope beamed from her eye. And angels bowed as she passed by. From the Anrdrt. ERRORS OF THE TRUE CHRISTIAN, nv m. j. j. Blame not the spirit, blame the shrine! The frail, the human heart of sin.
