LOVE YOUR MXItM . &tdgry 'ooks can do- no good, And blows are dealt in blindness; Words are better understood, If spoken but in kindness. Simple love far more hath wrought; Although by childhood muttered, Than all the battles ever fought, Or onths that nen have uttered. Friendship oft would longer last, Arid'quarrels be prevented, If little words were let go past Forgiven, not resented. Foolish things are frowns and sneers, For angry thoughts reveal them i Rather-drown them all-in tears, Than let another feel them. MOTHEE, HOME AND HEAVEN. What names are there on earth mor inusical than these three ? What can b snVeeter than that of mother ? How nwsn associations cluster around the heart at tb mention-of that word? Even hard-hearte warriors-have been seen to weep on hearin it casually spoken. All the joys, sorrow and perplexities of our earlier years at connected with her. We can hardly reca an event of our childhood but which bring with it either her reproving glance or a encouraging smile. Nothing gave us inoi pain when we had done some rash < thoughtless deed, than the sight of her es look. Many reproofs and lectures migi have hardened our hearts, whereas hi troubled look spoke " volumes," and made lasting impression. Then we resolved to (I nothing to displease her. Perfectly happ were we, when after performing some act < self denial, we met her fond approving smil And in later years, when we are in doubt, I whom do we go for counsel, but to oi mother? For we feel that she will nev, advise us wrongly and if we follow It counsel it will be hardly possible to err. I joy ever ready to sympathize, in sorrow 1 comfort and console us. How strong at enduring is the love of a mother! H heart is ready to break as she sees her chi torn from her by the " grim monster, Death and borne to the tomb. Her anguish ca not be described. Then the world seen dark and dreary to her, and she feels th she has nothing left to live for. A son may be attacked by some cont gious disease; his friends have all forsakt him but one; she all forgetful of herse. stands ever near his couch to administ, the cooling dratight and bathe the heat brow. Fearless and undaunted, she is w! ing to face death, it by so doing he mr be spared to her. Who would do this bi a mother? He may become degraded ar scorned by the world, and he would be le alone, the most wretched being in the un verse, but for one to whom he can fly ; si is ever readly to receive him. No sacrifice too great if it would win him back to tI path of virtue, and cause him to become man. What a blessing, then, is good nmothe How much we owe to her. Every passic that we have subdued, every virtue that ' possess, we must attribute to her wvatchfu ness and care. Think you we can repa heri It is a debt that were we to live hundred years wve could never cancel. In the formation of our character wheti er good or evil, outwardl circumstances e: ert a painful influence. In early childhoc the mind is more susceptible than wvho more advanced in years. Therefore tli first impressions the mind receives, indelill remains. An aged person remembers ever act of his childhood, but the occurrences< yesterday passed from his mind as soon a they happened. We form in youth a grer measure of our characters; in the bosom < home, and with kind parents to guide ou unwveary steps. Although a son may rov far from his native land yet he will nieve forget the htomne. The remembrance of th loved ones there will strengthen him t resist the voice of the siren. When temr tations assail him, a voice soft and sw*eei like his mother's sounds in his ears. lie fond, imploring glance rises before him, an' he banishes thne evil thought fronm his htearl He thinks of htome, recalls his father, mioth er, brothers and sisters, and their many act of kindness for him, and he breathes a voi that lhe will never do aught to grieve them. When one of the family circle returnm after a long absence, how joyfully hei greeted! Then home seems dearer tha ever to him. IHow pleasant are famtil gatherings ! Let us imagine for a momer one of these merry meeting of " kindred. Thie fun-loving Hlarry never ceases to jok the quiet and dignified llerbert, who ha conme from the city, upon the size of hi collar, the cut of his coat, or his paten gaiters. H-arry wears his collar a la Byron, an< never spends a thoughtt upon a dress. H er bert cannot say a wvord in defence of him self, while Harry, having the field entirely t< himself, improves it much to the amtusemen of the others. All seem to partake of the nniversal joy from the hoary-headed grand- father, dowlI to the little fellow with the flaxen ringleta the pet of all. If there is a paradise to b found on earth, 'tis in a home where al unite to protmo4te each other's happinesa Who wvould look farther for pleasures, whei such pure enjoyments can be found in ou homesi And in there our earthly homes we inns be fitting ourselves to enjoy heaven, ou final home. We are but children, place: here in a school for our culture and improve nment. Th'le trials and disappointments c life tend to discipline the heart, and brin1 us nearer to God. We mre apit to repine a the dispensations of Providence, when b them we are made to mourn. Yet I thinl if we could but realize the end God has ii viewv, we should feel differently. Sonr seem to think the sufferings w~e have here were never intended by God for us. But in may opinion thme heart of man would be mrr< sinfull and corrupt than it is now, if thern were nothing to try him. Take-, as an in stance to illustrate this, a child that alwayt been. petted andl indulged, every wvish has been gratified, nothing has thwvarted any (Ie sire. He is the slave of the nmost ungov. ernable passions. No one happy in his presence, and lhe is not so himself. Yet by some ho is envied; those see only the sur facee of things. Therefore-trials and disappointments are necessary to promote- our intellectual'growth. " 'No cross on earth, no- crown in heaven.' Let us then cultivate those virtues, that wec amay possess a heavenly spirit. Then may we hope for a crown in heaven. Then wvil Life be sweet and full' of joy. And when we bid adieu to the fleeting joys of earth, it wvill be wvith the sweet consciousniess ol iaving performed our duty and; with: the fim hope of happiness ini heaven, sweeter .1,.m mtiml can form conception of. ni. .. ENGAGING MANNERs.-Ihere are a thou saud pretty, engaging little ways, which every person may put on,- without running 1 the risk of being deemed either affected or e foppish. The sweet smile, the quiet, cordial b bow, the earnest movement in addressing a friend, or more especially a stranger, whom a one may recommend to our good regards, i the inquiring glance, the graceful attention t which is so captivating when united with I self.possession-these will insure us the good regards of even a churl. Above all, there is a certahi softness of manner which , should be cultivated, and which, in either I man or woman, adds a charm that almost I entirely compensates for lack of beauty. The voice can be modulated so to intonate. V that it will speak directly to the heart, and I from that elicit an answer; and politeness may be made essential to our nature. Neither is time thrown away in attending to such things, insignificant as they may seem to those who engage in weightier matters. GOOD ADvIcE.-What if the people do 9 speak against you ? Let them feel that you e are able to bear it. What is there gained y by stopping to correct every word that is e whispered to your discredit ? Lies will die d if let alone ; but if you repeat them to this one and another, because your enemies had , the impudence to make them, you keep the e fire burning, and open the way for a dozen I1 slanderers. Keep on your course, go strmight s forward, ard trouble not your head about n what is repeated; but feel all the better, aid e wear a less frightful face. Slander ve%-er r killed a sterling character, and it never will. d Her curse will never set upon him without it a pull here, a jerk there, and a twist (own r below ; and while this work is going on, the a false words are forgotten by the multitude. v FFERsoN OPINIoN oF ARDENT Sritirs. ' The habit of using ardent spirits by . met in public office, has occasioned more o injury to the public service, and more trou ir ble to me than any other circumstance r which has occurred in the internal concerns r of the country during my administration; 1 and were I to commence my administration 0 atgain with the knowledge I have acquired d from experience, the first question I should r ask, with regard ! every candidate for pub. d lic office, would be, Iv hc addicted to the use of ardent spirits ?" Vit ~n A "VERDANT" IN A COTTON Ir-. A raw, straw-hatted, sandy whiskered six-footer, one of the purely uninitiated, r came in recently from Greene county with da load of wood for a factory company. Not satisfied with contemplating the " poetry of |motion," at a safe distance, our hero nust it needs introduce himself' between the cards, to ge$ a nearer view. This move brought t his "nether habiliment" into dangerous -|proximity to the gearing of the next card, e and thereby hangs a tale. s " You, I say ? She goes pooty, don't C she, bos?" said Jonathan, inquiringly. a "She don't do anything else," responded the stripper. " But you must be very care '- ful1 how you move around this hardware. " "'was only last week sir, that a promising e young man from Oxford, a student at Cot. -~ loge there, WAS drawvn into that very card, y sir, and before any assistance could reach a lhim he wvas run through, and manufactured into No. 16, super extra, cotton warp yarn !" I." I s-s-wow ! I believe yuor joking !" I stuttered Jonathan. d " Fact sir," continued the stripper ; " and ~his disconsolate mother came down two edays ago, andl got five hunches of that same Syarn as melancholy relics." V " By the poker, that can't be truie !" "Fact, sir, fact! and each of his fellow Sstudents purchasedI a skein a piece, to be ~set in lockets, and worn in remembIrance of fdeparted worth !" " Is that a fact now~ ? Was he really Scai ded, spun, and set in lockets!" ~*A sense of personal danger shot across our hero's mind; be began to retreat pre Scipitately without waiting for an answer. But there was not much room to spare be tweeni himself and the gearing of the card rbehind. Another step back wards complet ed the ceremony of introduction. His un whisperables being of large " calibre," the process of snarling themi up into a hard Skniot wais no ways slow. Our hero " gave Stongue" instanter. " Oh! !.M u-r-d-e-r! Let go !-you h-n-r-t! 'Blast your picter ! Let go! Aini't you Sashamed ! Get out ! Let alone on me Scan't ye-do !" YThe card stripper threw off' the belt, but the momentum of the cylinder kept it re volving, and our hero, supposing it in full Soperation, burst out anew. "Oh, stop tier ! stop her, do ; I ain't well, Sand I orter be at home. Fatther wants the steers anid mother's going to bake ! Stop the tarnal maeheen, can't ye ?-do ! Ainit ye got no feelin' for a feller in distress? Oh, dear'. ll be carded and spuni and made into lockets! Je-rn-sa-fem! H~ow I wish I was to Greene !" ~ 1The card wvas stopped at last, but Jona-. than's clothes wvere so tangled in thme gear ing, that it was no slight task to extricate him, and it wias only by cutting out the Iwhole of the " invested territory," that lie wvas finally released. I I Imoney used in the back part of Oregon is: livestock-a hog passing for a dollar, a sheep for fifty cents, turkeys for twenty-live Lcents, and young dogs each for a shilling. , If Smith owes Jones four dollars twelve and Ia-half eents, he sends hamn frve hogs, and( C receives for change one sheep and one dog. fThe money market theore can be quoted oc ,casionally as " very liv'ely." M2oDEST.-A damstel bieiing sent up to a music store by tier master for some cat gut ashamed to say the vulgar word, and to Ishow her genitility, she asked the shop-keeper! orsome puss bowels. IA SAIrLOR looking serious in a certain chapel in Boston, was asked by a clergy. man if he felt any chaiige, whereupon the I tar put his hand into his pocket and replied, " Not a d-m cent?" AN Editor dtown South says lie never dotted an i but once in his life, and that was in a tight with a cotemporary. - HERE is a laughable instance of " A mnn short of a Bible." A reverend genmtlemanI while visiting a parishioner had occasion int t the course of a conversation to refer to the s Bible, on askinig for the article, the master t of the house ran to bring it, and came with two leaves of the book in his hand, "- I de clare," says ho, "-this is all we've got in the - house; I'd no idea wo were so necar out!1" HIIomT OF INQUsT~vF3Ess.-To elimi! i down the chimney to see what is cookinig ji TH CALFS TAM AND THE AUGUR HOLE. The North Carolina Argus tells the fol. >wing capital story, for which it is indebt. d to the stump speech of a Virginia mem er of Congress. "Tho proprietor of a tan yard adjacent to certain town in Virginia, concluded to uild a stand, or a sort of store, on one of he main streets, for the purpose of vending is leather, buying new hides, and the like. tfter completing his building, he began to onsider what sort of a sign it was best to mut up for the purpose of attracting atten. ion to his new establishment; and for days uid weeks he was sorely puzzled on this ubject. Several devices were adopted, nd on further consideration rejected. At ast a happy idea struck him. He bored an tugur hole through the door post, and stuck cal's tail into it, with the bushy end launting out. After a while he noticed a rrave looking personage standing near the loor with spectacles, gazing intently on the ign. And there he continued to stand, ga dg and gazing, until the curiosity of the 'armer was excited in trn. He stopped >ut and addressed the individual " Good moruing," said lie. " Good morning," said the other, without noving his eyes from the sign. "You want to buy leather," said the storekeeper. "No." Do you wish to sell hides ?" "A re you a rfarmer r" No." Aro you a merchant?" "No." "A re you a lawyeri" "Are you a doctor!" "No." What are you then I" I am a philosopher. I've been stand ing here for an hour, trying to see if I could see how that calf got through that augur hole, and I can't make it out to save ny life." A- TituorA in writing a letter to his sweetheart asking whether she would accept of his love or not, writes thus " If you don't love me, please send back the letter without breaking the sale!" " Soy\Y, where is your father !" " Father is dead sir." " H ave you any mother I" "Yes, I had onle, but she's got married to Joe Bniklin, and dnsen't be iy mother any longer; cause she's got 'nough to do to to 'tid to his young 'uns." Smart boy; here's a dime for you." That's ye, sir; that the way I gits my liviin'." "low ?" "Why, by telliii' big yarns to greenys like you at a dime a pop!" A SuuC-T IiLT-" The fire is going out, Miss Filkins." " I know it, Mr. Green ; and if you would act wisely, you wvould followv its example." It is unneLcessatry to add that Green never axed to set up~ withi that gal again. "TaIE sUN is all very well," said an Irish man, " but in my opinion the moon is worth two of it ; for the moon affords us light in the ntight time, when we really want it; whereas, we have the sun with us in the day time, whlen we have occasion for it." OLD Mlas. PrLKINS .was reading the for ign news5 by a late arrival. " Cotton is de aliniung !" exclaimed the old lady'. " W~ell I houghtL as maclh-the last thread I used was very ieeble."
