' >* The Art of Reading. The Pall Mall Gazette, in an articlo on tbo above caption, says that book' ish people arc continually apt to overrate the value of reading. There is a large order of minds?shewd, healthy, intelligent minds?which must be stimulated by vcjnai and ocular ^demonstration, aud which are to mero reading. And, -- on tbc other hand, there is u vast amount of reading which has no re* lation either to mental efforts or to intellectual cultivation. A common I consequence of reading for amusement is the love of sedentery habits, and the low physical tone thereby induced. If the ordinary run of novel readers were to reuounce the novel and the easy chair in favor of the iield and tho brisk walk, they would without doubt, find a sensible difference iti both their bodily and menta conditiou at the end of the year. Lei us not be misunderstood. What w< D set our face against is not the use, bul the abuse of books?an abuse whicl leads to superficial <vie\vs of life, neg * lect of active -duties, and a menta apathy, only equaled by self-conceit j_ Even if all books were worth readin< it does not follow that the spare tim< to tiiAm hv the voutiir ant U fVVVVU bu , J ^ - thoughtless would be well spent. Bu how few of the hundreds oi booki , published annually arc worth reading and how rare the faculty of discern nient! A real love of books is givei )f to the few, and not to the many. J wise book, thoroughly understood, i a mine of wealth throughout life. S< e strong, however, is the force o habit, and so powerful the influence r of position, that indiscriminate read >' ing has become as common as bad pi nnn.fhrto Dlavinff. Naturally, thii *" *v " A / c b e sham culture tends to the depreciatioi 5 of learning. It is so much easier t< accept opinions rcadv-inado than t< beset at the trouble of forming them a and so much pleasanter to read wha l- is light and eutertaining than wha is dry and obtruse. Whether second v hand opinion and light entertaining p liferature prove the most serviceable to tho world is quite another matter In a word, then, books arc \nadequat n teachers so long as wo use no others e Self-dcvelopemcnt cmbrace the prac tical as well as tho theoretical, an* those who overrate the last at th< a expense of the first, run into an ex e trerae, tho consequences of which an not easy to calculate. , , d ,0> ls English Mothers. It is a marked feature of social lilt in England, and certainly orio of iti e especial charms, that mothers ant 't daughters are so uniformly seen to is gether at home. Not only is the mother the first lady to whom yoi aro introduced at the house where s vou visit, but mistress of the cere S monies throughout; not only docs i- she preside at the dinner table, but i: the evening she bits as queen. What ever inay be your first impression o ~ such an arrangement?if it happens ' that your sympathies aro with the ? younger ladies?j-ou will very soor learu to think that the mother's ab r. sence would be very sincerely regret j ted bv tho daughters. As a pieturc U " w I all must admit tho arrangements tc 1 be perfect. The portly form and ma tronly dignity of the mother arc an y exquisite foil to the youthful beauty i. and maiden coyness of the daughters y And you will find nothing to mar. but a everything to enhance tho interest o! tho pictpro. The mother's presence never seems to operate .as an lyiwel e come restraint. e Between her and the daughter# J you will mark the most joyous, playI'ul, loving freedom, without the sacrifices of a little of parental dignity and authority on the one hand, or ol s sweet and graceful filial duty on the i- other. It may be Baid of English 2 families generally, that these twe s things aro eminently characteristic, uamcly: uniform parental authority and the most charming freedom o! ? intercourse between parents and theii P children. i ?o? 11 Rnnfl Rules for Farmers. 1.

I was always used to boys and their rough ways, tor all my cousins and other connexions invariably were boys. Consequently, when Grandma is at her wit's end ; when Grandpa glowers over his spectacles at "the little rascals;" wlion Bridget fumes and frets at flip mnddv feet and rndlqss tk?or> slamming; wh$n eyen Papa rages ? over the lost shovel, &c,, &c., 1 take 1 things ver}* coolly. And, between " you and I, if I,didn't, I should ; have been dead-long ago. And I have made tip my mind to this: l" "Boys will ha boys" as long as this , world endures, and there is no use in forever fretting and talking and ! scolding. It does no good, but, on 1 the contrary, does harm. I do not L like my carpets and furniture ' spoiled; I do not like this running t- in and out in winter time to warm 1 hands and feet thus letting in the ' cold air. I don't like it; but, at the same time, what can I do about \ it? If you know anything of * 1 ^ nomiAt uoys, you IlIIUW mat j vuimm I sit still two minutes in succession, t And then to got rid of them s awhile, we're glad to let them go out. Then they are not out any - time scarcely ere the spirit of cOni trariness tells them how nice and L warm it is in the house, and in s they come again. So it is perpetJ ual motion, perpetual noise, per| pctual mischief, till blessed night * brings rest for the poor mother, as well as for the boys. Troublesome ? s I should think so! And yet 1 ! pity the little fellows. How they > are hustled around and snubbed. ) What black looks, what short an, swers they get. They are not t wanted in the parlor, and Bridget 1 won't have them in the kitchen. It really seems as if there was no => room for the boys anywhere. Sol, emn respectability frowns at the J peccadillos of his neighbors boys, k as though his own had received a .. diploma for righteousness?(which j everybody else knows they haven't, e and 1 for one, don't expect either - his or mine to get, just yet.); Old u maids, and ladies without "a family of boya," would as soon sit down by a bear as a boy, but some day comes in a married lady who has neither boys or girls of her own, - but her big warm heart, takes in all s those of iier neighbors." She sym1 pathises with your perplexities and troubles, and after having made both you and }-curboys full in love ; with her, ends her visit. But it hasn't been in vain. In thought ; you follow her home. You see her i handsome carpets, her polished fur niture and spotless cleanliness of 1' room and hall. And then you M Ionic at vour own surroundings. J Above all, on the ruddy faces of 1 those ".noisy, horrible boys," and you say in your heart, as the noble j Roman matron, Cornelia, once said, ( "These are my jewels." i How Old Hickory Got IIis ' Name.?A correspondent of the Jackson (Miss.) News tells how ' General Jackson got his title of | Old Hickory. He says he got the ! story from Captain William Allen. a near neighbor of the General, . and who messed with him during the Creek War* During the cam. paign, the soldiers were moving rapidly to surprise the Indians, and r were without tents. A cold March ! rain came on, mingled with sleet, i t i . WHICH lilSlUU iOl" BUVCiui uaj v, 1 General Jackson got a severe cold, > hut did not complain, as lie tried to ' sleep in a muddy bottom among his half-frozen soldiers. Captain Allen and his brother John cut down a stout hickory tree, peeled off the hark, and made a covering for the General, who was with difI fieulty persuaded to crawl into it. The next morning, a drunken citi. zen entered the camp, and seeing the tent kicked it over. As Jack. son crawled from the ruins, the > toper cried, uIIello, Old Iliekory! come out of your bark, and jiue us 1 in a drink." JTofv Lovers of Flowers.?A , most beautiful and easily attained . show of evergreens may be had by i a very simple plan. If geranium branches taken from a luxurious ! and healthy plant just before the r winter sets in, be cut as for slips and immersed iu soap water, they m 11 after two or three da}*? shed their leaves, put forth f^resh ones, and continue in the greatest vigor I ail winter. JJy placing a number ot bottles tbns tilled in a flower . basket, with moss to conceal the bottles, a show of everlasting fn-eeu . is easily insured for the whole season. They require 110 fresh water. ; j Milk.?Milk for butter-making should be handled gently and put at rest ns soon as possible. A reduction of temperature is desirable ":as soon as the milk is drawn. r This should be effected with the least possible amount of stirring. " The more it is stirred the less will be the yield of cream. When set 1 it should be protected from even 31 the least jar. Churning in a milk 5 room, or any work that jars the "(building, will retard the rising of > the cream. Milk, to get the best I yield of cream, requires absolute * and undisturbed rest. ?<?
