domestic felicity, of all public and private respectability and usefulness in the civilized and moral world; and consequently, scholastic instruction, above all other efforts of human exertion, most deserves, most demands, the concentration of all thc learning, experience and xvisdom, that men professed''' engaged in teaching, enn contribute to meet the wishes of parents and the expectations of society. Every parent every community as thc common parent of all society, says to the ins.ruetor of youth, ":each this sen, educate diis daughter, in the best, possible manner to make an usef d and ornamental member of the great family of man. To you we com
