How often is it said, "My sons must receive a college education, but my daughters can learn sufficient at home," Yes, your daughters can learn sufficient at home, and so can your sons; but there is no reason why yur sons should be better acquainted with the arts and sciences, and other things pertaining to the development of the mind, than your daughters. Give them equal advantages, and true genius will show itself; or, it the family means will not allow all to be educated alike, give the best opportunity to the one most likely to profit by it If this example had been followed from the beginning, the world would contain more works of true merit and not half so much rubbish. 'Oftentimes.: a bright, intelligent girl is left without any advantages of education, while her less intelligent brother has all the spare means of the family expended in his behalf. He never makes anything of himself, because it isn't in him; she never such excellent cooks, and have such submissive dispositions;" .hut they do not love them with the true, generous lovo of the soul, that would be Impossible, because their tastes are different and they are not equally matched.

A man would bo prond to take his wife with him anyvhero, and would love to bring learned and noted people to his house to meet her; he would love to sit with her in the evening1, when the day's labor is done, reading tbeir favorite books, or discussing popular subjects. Too often do we hear of a man spending his evenings away from home, because there is nothing there to Interest him no congenial spirit; and no one likes to read and discuss subjects with himself. One needs a companion in his joys as much as in his sorrows. Some prefer a woman "who is pretty and does not know too much" Is it possibleor any one to know too much?
