In all schools of any size, there nre pupUs of different moral char ..rtors, different dispositions and different minds.

I - youth to prepare for manhoo! ; life to prcpate for deat:. and tteraity are duties often neglected by a great many, until too late; which neglect st often causes re morse of convienee and much un happiness which could haVe been so easily avoided. As self preserva-1 i cue ursi low oL nature, so I ouht self duty be tha first in a pupil's catalogue of duties , and a pupil's first and most important self duty is close application to study and thus improva every precious moment while time and opportunity are afforded remembering that it I takes a lon; time and hard work to complete and polish even a literary education, which cm be done only while voting and at school. Compensation for value received. or the payment ol obligations, i a j universal duty of mankind -but the ieatest unavoidable obligation un der which any person was ever plac ed, is that of child to parent indeed this is an obligation, never requite 1, ami hence its payment should betn in early youth and lust to the en'1, of life. It is therefore a pu oil's duty, while awpy from borne, at school to ever remember who it is so a nations about his future welfare as to make the sacrifice financially and vaiious other ways to afford dim the only opportunity to prepare for manhood and the difficult duties of future life, j ami therefore closely apply and de. port himself in such away as to trladdfa the heart rather than dis- appoint thC expe ctations and tditiht j the hopes of faithful ami dutiful; parents and thus be a pride of the i h?3rt' a p'.umre of the life of i f hose wiio only can feel paid by strjh i a requital, which is re.dly more re- !l-HI native to the pupil than to fhejof fields and skies.
