dandy of leisure. He turns up his nose at labor and 

 despises that vulgar portion of the community who from 

 choice or necessity have any thing to do. He sports no 

 whiskers but chooses to wear his bristles on his back 

 rather than on his chin. He neither smokes cigars nor 

 chews tobacco, but is content with his own pigtail. He 

 is celebrated for a certain kind of independence in his 

 movements and will go any way but the right one. — 

 Like some of the biped race he is always in the opposi- 

 tion, and the surest way to get him to a desired point is 

 to induce him to take the contrary direction. Should

 teresting family, her warmer affections are called forth, 

 and it is there, the tenderness and solicitude of the 

 mother, for the welfare of her offspring, are most con- 

 spicuous. 



The whole business of the education of her infant 

 family, in the various branches of swinish literatui'e and 

 science, devolves upon her. She has the aid of no Ma- 

 ternal x\ssociation, or School, or College, but she is 

 competent to instruct them in all the duties and accom- 

 plishments useful in after life. 



She first learns them the Geography of the sty, and so 

 much of the adjacent territory as she is permitted to
