All her attainments and powers can here be actively and earnestly employed- The work is adapted to her mental and moral constitution. No occupation harmonizes better with her character, or yields her more genuine pleasure. The leading objection to the policy here advocated is founded on the supposition that delicate and timid women will not succeed so well in the government of a school in which rough and refractory boys are gathered together.

The objection under consideration has some affinity to this antiquated notion.
