 It is confidently believed that the due mixture of physical and mental effort Ny . ich we contemplate is essential to the greatest efficiency. It has often been remarked, in reference to the requirement of our Ma tional lndependenco, that ''great occasions form characters to meet the demand'- When a WASHINGTON was needed, a w ASH INGroN was formed. When our arms or our councils demanded spirits of heroism, eloquence, and wisdom, the exigency of the occasion created them. But they were men ofmuseul0r as we'll as mental energy. They had been accustomed to guide the plough, to lift the hammer, and wield the axe, which hardened the constitution, and nerv- ed the arm to achieUe, while the mind was excited to plan and decide. The classical scholar need not be told that Greece and Rome formed their heroes, orators, and statesmen upon this principle. A race of young men with equal hardihood of consti- tuition, and decision of purpose, are now needed to break down the barriers of igno- rance and error, and bear the blessings of science, liberty and religion to a population oH our western border greater than that which achieved our independence. The nr t,In al rsx frightened mind Co a sound body, and thus render talent efficient by it's connection with strength of constitution.

 The AGENT of the American Education Society remarks-" Tho adoption of some such plan seems absolutely necessary 10 prevent the waste of health and life and usefulness which the church of Christ has for years sustained. The A. K. s. has a tale of lamentation and woe to tell on this subject. Not far from thirty young men under its patronage, some of them possess ing distinguished talents and piety, have sunk into their graves before their prepar- atory course could be finished and as ma ny more have been permanently disabled ure of health. Not less than $500o, it is supposed, have been appropriated in this way in vain. And this waste of intellect, and piety, and influence, as well as funds, must continue and increase unless efectual measures are taken to prevent it."

 Says Dr.. JUDD, of the Sandwich Islands, missionary, and physician-"What can missionary do, "in perils oft," if he has not bodily strength to sustain the most la- borious exertions? He must be inured to tOiL as we'll as accustomed to hmk-he must be prepared to meet a burning sun, chilling rain, or icy winter, as well as knot- ty questions and hard sentences. Of the little company who have left American shores in the cause of Foreign Missions, how many have laid their bones on the field, or returned home to recruit their health Much must be ascribed to the want of constitution inured to toll. From whence shall men be furnished who shall be fitted for the arduous work We so0nf iOn-lke mem-gidnt hearted-aohO can un- dertake great things, aud umder God can execute them; 'Oho can bear aU things, endure aN things," for the Kingdom ot Ckrist's sakc." Give to the church and the world such an efficient system of edu- cation as the one under contemplation, and it will go far to remedy the evil.

 4. 1t IS odaptcd to the promotion ot - sound morality.

 It is general maxim that regular and rational employment strengthens moral principle, and thus affords one of the best securities against the scductions of vice. Incidence is the road 10 ruin, and it often leads through dissipation, prodigacy, and crime. Nor does it seem sufficient that the

 mind alone should have employment it's necessary periods of relaxation will be fill ed up with senseless Iecreations or posi- lively vicious amusemonts, unless some sys- tenn of healthy and profitable exercise can be substituted. In the proposed plan there is an object presented, and one which con- science approves, and the only way to jt: attainment, is, by regular, systematic course of both mental and manual labor There are no hours left to hang heavily up on the student, or to be spent in planning and executing schemes of mischief or 0 crime, but, by the regular alternations o study and labor, every hour is profitabl, employed, all temptation avoided, and goo' moral habits strengthened and confirmed By placing youth under the influence Q this system of moral and paternal discipline guarded both by the care of their .instruc tors and the nature of their associations an employments, the best guarantee is afford ed for the purity of their morals, and tn l usefulness of their future life.
