But the advantages of a more diffusive system of instruction will not rest here - By reading frequently and repeatedly, passages containing just rules and principles, even above the comprehension of young minds, the pupils will learn many of them by heart, and bear the impressions into future life by which means, when their understandings are more matu red, they will be enabled to direct, to useful purposes, the principles with which they had stored their minds in school. In this manner, useful rules and facts, acquired in youth, like seed sown in a good soil, will prodhce their fruit in riper years. And increase the harvest of knowledge and improve ment, to enrich the community.
