Education is the mighty r.gcntthat developes mental powers which otherwise would forever he hid in eternal obscurity, and impart? to them an energy, a superiority, and comparative omnipotence.

to he confined to the present, it walks back through the immense past, pries into the mysteries of antiquity, views the w orks of other days, and hold? converse with those who have long since ceased their connexion with earth. It also glances forward, lifts the veil of futurity, and imagines what will he, when the great principles of truth shall be fully developed. Nor is it satisfied with this little stretch of thought, but. conscious of its endless existence, it leaps

the bounds of time, wanders oer eternity's vast expanse, and paints to itself the abodes of men, when they shall have launched forth upon the drt.-.d unknown. Its superior pleasures in the contemplation of nature's works, are known but to itself. It set sand admires the intelligence of Jehovah in all tilings that are. It discovers design in the accurate arrangement of parts, -and gazes with pleasurable wonder at the admirable structure of the whole. It is susceptible of the various emotions of beaut)-, grandeur, and sublimity, to an almost infinite extent. The green pastures covered with harmless

flocks, the lilies of the valloy, the wild flowers of the wood, and the slurdv oak of the forest, all afford theme? for its contemplation. Bat though earth presents many varieties and exquisite beauties, yet it cannot satiate the boundless desires of this cultivated mind, for its chainless energies were never destined to such narrow limit?. It proudly disdains the fetters that would bind it to one globe, while it bursts forth free from all incumbrance, soars aloft wiih "flight sublime,' and views the wondrous sun, whose matchless ras i np u t light and heat to a grand system of moving worlds.

Had the immortal Newton been born under circumstance? which had withheld all improvement, his gigantic, mind would have remained enveloped in all its native rubbish, and the w orld would have been unblest w ith his sublime theories and important discoveries. Many mind?

whose natural capacities, had they been developid, would have secured them names as worthy and as lasting as anv

ever enrolled on fame's long list, have been compelled, bv unfriendly circumstances, to run their earthly career under the influence of that obscurity which is the offspring of destructive ignorance and superstition.
