AtV meeting of tlie last Teachers'
Association, held at London on the
Cth inst., the following essay was read
by Mrs. C. B. McKeneie, and a copy
requested for publication :.
I . LIFE'S CROSSES.
.. Ever since ourfirst parents, through
disobedience, fell from their original
purity, crosses have been the common
heritage of mankind. Doubtless many
of life's crosses arc imaginary ones;
and much of the weight of those that
are real, depends upon the spirit with
which they are borne. Yet, with all
the patience and fortitude we can
summons, wo almost daily find crosses
that are hard to bar. :
It it true that some of these viewed
singly, appear very trivial so much
so, that we are almost ashamed to des
ignate them as such ; yet we often find
them harder to take iip, with an un
complaining spirit, that those that at
first thought seen! much heavier. I
believe it is the experience of nearly
all, that the little, evcry-day crosses,
that come to us all, are those from
which we most shrink, and which too
often ruffle the temper, furrow the
brow, and blanch the cheek, while
the rosses of youth should still be
blooming there .
I have often thought that one reason
those seem so heavy, is their apparent
lightness. r No one appreciates them;
and we soon come to think there is no
virtue. or. merit in bearing such insig
nificant burdens; and many bend be
neath their weight, that under some
great calamity will march with firm
step and upright form, evincing a
calmness and fortitude that amount to
heroism. JJoubtlesa this is partly ow
ing to the stronger effort put forth by
the one thus visited by misfortune.
But is not this manifestation .of
strength in a great degree attributable
to the appreciation and sympathy of
friends? "We are all so constituted
that we desire sympathy. It is one of
the strongest cords that bind society
together; and is the very warp into
which the silken threads are woven to
form the beautiful and enduring web
of true friendship. "Why then is this
precious balm for life's sorrows so of
ten witheld ? Surely is costs the don
or nothing; and yet it frequently
brings him a sweet reward.
But, while all occupations and cou
ditfonsof life bring their own peculiar
crosses, few are more heavily laiden
with them than the teacher's voca
tion. Though his work is truly a no
ble one, and in the aggregate very
pleasant; yet in almost every school
he teaches he must contend with stu
pidity, mischieviousness, indolence,
and obstinacy. He i3 expected to im
part docility to the stupid, energy to
the indolent, and gentleness to the
wayward. And he is expected to do
this, too, by the mildest means, and to
keep the whole machinery. xf school
government in noisless motion by that
all-powerful though gentle agent
moral-suasion. And if he succeeds in
having all move on thus harmonious
ly, (which all that have ever tried it
know is impossible,) there are outside
iniluences with which he must con
tend that are much harder to over
come, because they aro in a measure
beyond his reach.
Many of these remarkable little ones
have equally remarkable parents, who,
in their own estimation, are wonder
fully endowed with the faculty, of
school government, and believe them
selves especially commissioned to in
struct young teachers in their myste
rious art. If the teacher wholly dis
regards this advice so generously giv
en, of course he is guilty of the gros
sest ingratitude ; and should he be so
unwise as to follow it, he will soon
find himself fettered with bonds not
easily severed.
In almost every district we find
these self-appointed assistants ; and I
wonder if a teacher ever taught his
first term through without being thus
kindly advised.
But in addition to these we often
find parents who wish ns to pursue a
different course with their children
from what we do with the rest ; be
cause they are very peculiar children
always have been a little out of the
common order and the probability is
if this peculiarity is properly treated,
they will in time become perfect ge
niuses: Now, if there is anything in teach
ing perfectly detestable, it is the man
agement of one of these anomilies;
and in nine cases out of ten this pecu
liarity is downright laziness ; ami the
more it is petted, the faster it will de
velop, until the little prodigy of his
fond parent's becomes a mental imbe
cile. Unfortunately we find instances in
almost every community of these nat
ural geniuses grown to maturity, and
this peculiarity of childhood still
clings to them, and they now evince
no greater love for plrysical labor than
they did in younger days fcr mental
exert iorr.
Bat the teacher'a crosses are so nu
merous and varied that but few of
them can be mentioned. On of the
hardest of these, perhaps, 13 having
his language misconstrued, his mo
tives misjadged, and himself brought
under censure, when he has zealously
labored for -rht ho bel'Ved o be "
vrrrVr?t interests 'of hi? pupils. This
Is f.n slight trfal to a Bcnsali vc imf-fr ; :
it.ts what all who Lave beefi engaged
in the work have experienced.
: Could "parents be induced to co-op
crate with the teacher in his axduous
labors, many of the heaviest croejs
he htxa to bear would never come. to
him.-Happily the classes alluded to

sanraraa
are in the minorit y, and he meets with
many who Will gladly second his ef
forts in the cause of education, and to
Whom he may go for council, and
whose encouraging words cheer him
in hiB darkest hours.
Notwithstanding the many perplex
ing cares that hedge up the teacher's
way, there are very many pleasant
features about his employment. The
consciousness that we are really ac
complishing t-ome good, is of itself a
source of genuine happiness. In the
school room wo have not to contend
with long established prejudices ; but
ours is the noble work of molding the
young and tender mind. And, if in
the couruoof our labors as teachers, we
can cause to take deep root in one
mine the love of truth, virtue and pi
ety, we shall hot have labored in
vain. No earnest, faithful teacher,
whose whole heart is in hi3 work, can
labor long in the uncultivated fields of
youthful intellect, without sowing
there some seeds that will, iu after
years, yield a rich harvest of pure
thoughts and useful deeds.
But life's crosses come not alone to
the teacher. No condition in life,
howevef exalted, is exempt from them.
And generally those that gain riches
and earthly immortality, purchase
them at the cost of earthly happiness.
And many who have labored for an
earthly crown, have gained it at the
cost of a heavenly diadem. From the
pinnacle of wealth and honor to the
lowliest walk in poverty's vale, crosses
await us. And how often do we feel,
when some unusually bitter draught
is pressed to our lips, that it would be
sweet to lift the mystic veil that hides
this world from the unseen, and pass
forever beyond the reach of sorrow
and pain. Yet this desire is hardly
worthy a noble christian spirit ; much
better accept with meekness all that a
kind Tather gives us to beaf, for had
we not needed crosses to develop and
strengthen us, they would never have
been given. And how many lessons
of humility, patience and faith have
we learned from these silent teach
ers. The world is indebted to crosses for
many of the useful inventions, Impor
tant discoveries and beautiful works of
art. Bead the biographies of some of
the greatest inventors and artists, and
men of science, aud we will there
learn thas frequently some trying cir
cumstance has originated in their
minds the plans that have been sosuO
cessfully tarried out in their works.
And many of our best literary pro
ductions have fallen from the pen of
those whose lives have been shrouded
in sorrow.
As the finest and most beautiful
specimens of crystal are formed near
the surging fires, pent up within the
earth, so the choicest literary gems
have originated in the minds of those
who have been refined in the crucible
of affliction.
But life is not all crosses. If we
carefully examine we shall find that
our sources of happiness far out num
ber our sorrows. Though Byron, at
the ago of thirty could say "I never
have experienced but three happy
days in all my life," this need not be
our experience, for he dashed aside the
cup of pure, true happiness, and
drinking from the worldly spring of
sensual pleasure, he found its waters
at the best a bitter draught.
Though we may not possess his tal
ents and gehiu, yet we all have a
place to fill on life's great battle-field;
and whether lowly or exalted, if well
and nobly, filled, We shall have accom
plished Ufe's mission. "While here,
we may never know how much we are
Indebted to crosses; but when we
have crossed the "silent sea," and
reached the clime of the blest, and
joined in the soug of praise 'to him
who bore earth's heaviest cross that
we might wear a heavenly crown, we
shall then know the worth of crosses,
and why they arc given us to bear.
